At the market

John Arendt Summerland Review

Susie Kedge sets out an assortment of plants at her booth at the Summerland Farmers’ Market on Tuesday morning. The weekly market, along Kelly Avenue, will continue each Tuesday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. until October.

The municipality will spend up to $100,000 on directional signs to steer motorists into the community.

At the municipal council meeting on Monday evening, council voted unanimously to purchase the directional signs.

“We realize this is expensive, but once and for all, it’s time to get it done,” said Mayor Janice Perrino.

The signs, which would be placed along Highway 97, would advertise attractions or special events in the community.

Coun. Lloyd Christopherson said Summerland is the only Okanagan community which does not use the highway as a main business route. “We have to get people into the town,” he said.

Coun. Martin Van Alphen said the signs would benefit the entire community since they could promote a business or a special event.

The digital signs were considered in August, 2010. The reader board signs were to use LED technology to display messages and could be changed depending on the events the municipality wished to promote.

A year later, the sign purchase was shelved since the municipality could not find the money in the budget for the project. Instead, municipal funds were spent on other projects, including upgrade work on Bathville Road.

In addition to installing the digital signs, council also passed a resolution directing municipal staff to review the existing sign bylaw and make recommendations for potential changes.

Coun. Bruce Hallquist said the sign bylaw has been in need of revision for some time.

“It has taken far too long for us to do this,” he said.

Anti-bullying initiative shown Teachers present online service to senate committee

by John Arendt An anti-bullying initiative which began in Summerland has gained

national attention.

Trevor Knowlton and Hal Roberts of Stop A Bully were in Ottawa at the end of April to present information on their program to the Standing Senate Committee on Human Rights.

Knowlton, the president of Stop A Bully and a teacher at Summerland Secondary School, started the initiative in May, 2009 after he received an anonymous e-mail from a student about a bullying video.

The student sent the

e-mail because a video of an assault at the school grounds was being circulated on Facebook.

Knowlton launched the online bullying reporting program four days later.

The site, at stopabully. ca, allows students, par-

ents and others the ability to safely report incidents of bullying and cyberbullying to school officials.

The site now receives complaints of bullying in all parts of Canada.

POLICE REPORT Close calls in roundabouts Police continue to receive calls about unsafe driving in the two traffic roundabouts.

“People do not know what they are supposed to do with the roundabouts,” said Cst. Jacques Lefebvre of the Summerland RCMP detachment. “A lot of people are complaining that drivers aren’t slowing down.”

He said the speed limit in the roundabouts is 30 kilometres an hour, but some drivers have been observed driving as fast as 55 km/h in the roundabouts.

911 calls received

After the fire Trailers at Summerland Beach R.V. Park were destroyed by fire early Monday morning. The cause of the fire has not yet been determined.

Trailers burned at R.V. park Four trailers at Summerland Beach R.V. Park were burned in an early morning fire on Monday.

Assistant fire chief Chad Gartrell said the first firefighters arrived around 6:40 a.m. when the first of the trailers was in flames.

250-494-3178 or 250-490-6158 9100 Jones Flat Rd. E. Summerland OPEN 7 DAYS A WEEK 8:30 am to 5:30 pm

A second trailer received extensive damage and two more received significant fire damage.

The cause of the fire has not yet been determined, although an electrical inspector was at the scene on Monday morning.

Cindy Jamieson, who was staying with her parents Kirby and Shirley Leggatt, said she awoke around 6 a.m. to the sound of what she thought was cooking bacon.

When she got up to check, she smelled smoke.

She quickly woke

her parents and they left the trailer.

They tried to extinguish the fire until firefighters arrived.

“After 10 minutes, it was engulfed,” she said.

Because the fire flared up so quickly, the family could not remove possessions

from the trailer.

“We didn’t have a chance to get anything out,” Shirley Leggatt said.

Jamieson had left with her cell phone, charger, car keys and comforter.

The Leggatts have owned the trailer for 13 years.

Police have received 911 calls from out-ofservice cell phones in Summerland.

Cst. Jacques Lefebvre of the Summerland RCMP detachment said one recent call came when toddlers, playing with a discontinued phone, inadvertently dialed 911.

He said tracking the source of the call is difficult and cannot pinpoint the exact location.

Even if a cell phone no longer has a calling plan, it can be used to call 911, he said. He urges people to remove the batteries from cell phones they are discarding.

Shoplifting reported Police have received calls about shoplifting from a store in the area.

Staff at the store have discovered empty boxes from perfume bottles, left near the back of the shelves.

Anyone with information on the thefts is urged to call the Summerland RCMP detachment or Crime Stoppers.

LEGALLY SPEAKING...

A public service message from Bell, Jacoe & Company

A Deals a Deal When you purchase real property, do you realize that the Contract of Purchase and Sale you are going to sign is "THE" document on which any lawsuit would be based. All of the terms of the deal must be written in that contract, including any addendums to it, or they will have no effect. The only alteration or modification allowed to the "Contract" are those which both parties agree to.

One party cannot decide later to unilaterally change those terms.

This happens most often when the property is not quite completed and the Purchaser wants to add a non-statutory holdback or amendment.

In British Columbia our Land Title Conveyance practice is based on a system of Lawyer's promises called undertakings. The Vendor's Lawyer sends this executed transfer documents to the Purchaser's Lawyer on his or her undertaking not to deal with the documents until the purchase price can be paid out. Without these promises the Transfer system would be very complex and slow. The unfortunate side to this system is that it must have certainty. The Vendor's Lawyer must know that the full amount of the proceeds will be available upon registration. It goes without saying then that the Purchaser's Lawyer cannot unilaterally withhold money from the Vendor, even if the Vendor has failed to perform one or more of the terms required in the "Interim Agreement". It may not seem right to the Purchaser, but it is the system we have to deal with.

EDITORIAL

our pick

Stopping bullies An online initiative to report incidents of school bullying and cyber-bullying has received national attention after two of the founders presented their program to the Standing Senate Committee on Human Rights in Ottawa.

Since it was formed three years ago, the Stop A Bully initiative has allowed students and parents to report cases of bullying at school and online.

Presenting the information to the senate committee will help to heighten the awareness of the program and the need to address bullying.

In recent decades, efforts have been made to curb bullying but the problems still remain.

Educators today are taking bullying much more seriously than ever before and progress has been made. Still, more work is needed.

The need becomes increasingly important as students today have better access to technology and communications than in the past.

The incident which prompted Summerland Secondary School teacher Trevor Knowlton to start the Stop A Bully site happened just three years ago, in May, 2009.

In that case, a video of a fight at the school was recorded and posted online.

The far-reaching impact of bullying in an age with instant communication makes it a problem we cannot ignore.

School yard fights can now be viewed around the world.

But there is another reason to take measures to curb bullying.

The children and teens who learn to bully others while in school will become the employers, coworkers, customers or neighbours who continue their bullying behaviour.

We doubt bullying can ever be stopped entirely. It has existed for many years and persists despite anti-bullying programs and initiatives.

Still, if Stop A Bully can discourage some from bullying, the initiative deserves serious consideration.

Few communities support artists the way Summerland does.

That’s the word from Val Eibner, this year’s featured artist for the Meadowlark Nature Festival. She should know. She has worked and taught all over Canada as a master potter, travelled the world meeting other artists and now makes her home in Summerland. She appreciates all the practical help she received from people and businesses here.

Ferry fleet sails into a storm VICTORIA – The B.C. government has rolled out its plan to reform BC Ferries, continuing the structural and cultural shift that started when the Crown corporation was quasiprivatized in the early years of B.C. Liberal rule.

Politically, there is a lot at stake here. Premier Christy Clark’s year-long “families first” routine boils down to two projects, reining in rate increases at BC Hydro and BC Ferries.

Tom Fletcher For weeks, Transportation Minister Blair Lekstrom has been signaling there is bad news to come.

Sparring with the NDP in question period, he has bluntly and repeatedly said the days of fully staffed vessels sailing with a third (or less) of their capacity are coming to an end.

Tabling legislation to give the ferry commissioner new powers over service levels as well as fares, Lekstrom revealed $80 million worth of sugar to help the tough medicine go down over the next four years. That’s on top of the $150 million annual subsidy.

Quadra Island politician Jim Abram was first out with the predictable view of the Gulf Islands elite, dismissing this sum as paltry. It’s difficult to capture how self-centred and insulting this is, but I’ll try.

Consider that the B.C. transportation ministry spent $460 million last year on highway

operations. That’s for the province’s entire vast, weather-battered road network. This year’s operating subsidy to coastal ferries is approaching $200 million, nearly half of that. And increasingly, it goes to subsidize getaways for those who choose isolation for its own sake.

Basic financial information also exposes the falsity of NDP ferry critic Garry Coons’ one-note critique. It’s part of the highway system, he constantly says, comparing empty ferries with empty

This run was to take truck and other traffic from congested Horseshoe Bay to the mid-Island from Tsawwassen. An alternative route from Richmond to Gabriola Island, with bridges to Vancouver Island, had been quietly scuttled after the W.A.C. Bennett government was defeated by the NDP’s Dave Barrett in 1972.

On a map, it’s clear this would have been the shortest route. Harvey says it would have cut travel time by half, and likely replaced the con-

This fiscal-fantasy policy implies another huge increase in subsidy, much of it a transfer from working people to the idle rich who can afford Gulf Islands real estate. roads while ignoring the mandatory ferry staff and other costs.

This fiscal-fantasy policy implies another huge increase in subsidy, much of it a transfer from working people to the idle rich who can afford Gulf Islands real estate. Coons can’t say how much, probably because he has no idea.

A key legislative change will allow BC Ferries to use revenues from its profitable main routes to subsidize little-used runs. This would be even more important if those revenues hadn’t been squandered. And no, I’m not talking about the “fast ferries.”

The story is detailed in Head On!, a 2004 book by former B.C. deputy highways minister R.G. Harvey. He describes how the Mike Harcourt government completed the “gross error” of building a new terminal at Duke Point, near Nanaimo.

gested Horseshoe Bay dock.

But Barrett would have had to tell his Nanaimo ferry union supporters that they were losing half their work hours.

Tsawwassen to Duke Point is 65 km, compared to 54 km from Horseshoe Bay to Departure Bay. A ferry worker’s shift includes two round trips and loading time.

On the Duke Point run this meant at least eight and a half hours, “thus ensuring the crew at least one hour at double time daily and often more,” Harvey writes. “Later it became a scheduled overtime route.”

Something to keep in mind as Adrian Dix and his crew of union bosses prepare to take the helm.

Tom Fletcher is legislative reporter and columnist for Black Press and BCLocalnews. com. tfletcher@blackpress.ca.

culls Let’s get those directional signs up and working this time.

Municipal council has agreed to spend up to $100,000 to put up signs directing motorists off the highway and into the community.

The signs were planned two years ago but the project was shelved for lack of money.

It’s too easy for the travelling public to just stay on Highway 97 and miss most of Summerland.

The digital signs pointing the way to events and attractions will help steer visitors into Summerland’s off-highway business areas.

A change in the sales tax structure When the B.C. government first introduced the PST taxation system many decades ago back in the late 1940s, the B.C. economy was far more based on the sale of goods.

Over the decades since, our provincial economy has diversified and expanded and today there is a far larger service industry than ever before.

When the move to the HST was first announced, in the early days the reaction by most citizens was fairly muted.

Given that most retail items were already subject to the PST and GST, moving towards the HST would not make a significant difference.

However once the ramification that service industries would also now be taxed equally and no differently than retail based goods, many taxpayers expressed outrage at the thought of paying more money to Victoria.

Further, while government initially did not forecast a significant revenue increase in this taxation

THE EARLY YEARS

International Museums Day

May 18 has been designated by the International Council of Museums as a day to encourage public awareness of the role of museums in the development of society. The theme for 2012 is Museums in a Changing World. New challenges, new inspirations. This photo, taken in 1983, shows the back of the newly constructed museum. With the changes that have taken place since then and the proposed changes for the future, we thought this year’s theme was very appropriate. By the way, touring the Summerland Museum is a great way to celebrate International Museums Day.

indeed vast.

This not only yielded an increase in tax revenue to government, it also legitimated the concerns from many taxpayers of paying more money in taxes to B.C. general revenue.

Not all concerns opposing the HST however did materialize.

As many will recall, one of the primary benefits of the HST was that as a taxation format it is far more supportive in job creation.

Critics had suggested that the HST would result in job losses, in some cases by the “thousands.”

In reality we know now that in fact B.C.’s unemployment rate has dropped to 6.2 per cent from seven

per cent and that our provincial economy has gained close to 20,000 jobs over 16,000 of which are full time.

In fact, since February, 2011, B.C. has added close to 58,000 jobs to our provincial economy.

The intent of this week’s report is not to revisit the HST and going back to the former PST but rather the focus is on going forward and moving from the current HST taxation format to PST. This week new legislation has been introduced that will see the transition to PST underway for the target date of April 1 of next year.

This new legislation will ensure that all of the formerly

VICTORIA VIEWS

Bill Barisoff PST exempt services will again be exempt as was the case prior to the introduction of the HST. In addition, new efforts have been made to assist businesses with collecting PST, for example remittances will now be due on the last day of the month instead of on the middle as was the case before.

PST commission

will again be paid to businesses as was the case previously and more information and reporting will be available online.

The move to the PST also means that the BC HST credit will be eliminated and the lesser BC sales tax credit reimplemented.

The taxpayer fairness and service code will also be updated to reflect the changes between the two different tax systems.

Beginning in January 2013, new staff will begin work on registering over 100,000 businesses to the new B.C. PST system and outreach seminars will be available including electronic information online.

For further information please visit the www.pstinbc.ca website.

Before I close this week I would like to offer a special note of congratulations to the Penticton Vees in winning the RBC Cup national junior hockey championships.

This is an incredible achievement and is yet another chapter in the impressive hockey legacy of the Vees history in our community.

It was also great to have a team named after a city that we can all be proud of featuring so prominently at a nationally televised event.

Job well done to all involved.

removal and effluent filter upgrade and the Jones Flat and Garnett Valley Water System Separation Project.

The grit removal and effluent filter upgrade is the top priority while the water system separation work is the second priority under the grant application.

If the funding for either or both projects is approved, it will cover 100 per cent of

the cost of the work.

Municipal treasurer Ken Ostraat said it is possible but not likely for the municipality to receive the funding for both projects.

Coun. Peter Waterman said the grit removal system work is needed since there is no backup system if the present grit removal system fails.

He added that both projects are import-

ant to the municipality. When the water system separation is done, it will also include resurfacing Garnett Valley Road, which has long been identified as a priority for the community.

Coun. Lloyd Christopherson said the treatment plant work needs to be done quickly. “The treatment plant could fail tomorrow,” he said.

“That would be an economic embarrassment for Summerland.”

Coun. Martin Van Alphen, who lives in Garnett Valley, said the road work is necessary, but the grit removal system work is also important.

“We need to make sure the plant is running to the best of its abilities,” he said.

The motion was carried unanimously.

Concerns raised about cyber-bullying Continued from Page 1

“Since launching Stop A Bully three years ago, I have learned more than I ever wanted to about the pain and suffering that is being caused

by youth bullying,” Knowlton told the senate committee.

“Over these years I have also heard the sheer desperation from parents who are trying to protect

their children and their message since the beginning has been loud and clear — more needs to be done to stop this.”

He said the number of incidents of bully-

ing tends to peak among Grade 7 and 8 students, dropping off in high school.

While there is much awareness of the problems of bullying, Knowlton said cyber-

bulling is becoming a growing problem.

Cyber-bullying involves posting degrading information or spreading rumours online. In some cases, another student has gained access to a student’s Facebook account while in other cases, derogatory comments are posted elsewhere.

Because of the global nature of the Internet, the damage to a student’s reputation can be far-reaching.

While 61 per cent of bullying incidents among students are perpetrated by male

students, 68 per cent of cyber-bullying reports have started from female students, Knowlton said.

He added that because of the website, one principal received complaints of online bullying at 4 p.m. on a Friday. By 10 a.m. the following day, the problem had been addressed and the offending content had been shut down.

“By default, schools are the only structures in our society which are able to deal with cyberbullying,” Knowlton said. “Quite often it

is the same bullying that’s going on during the day.”

Following the presentation to the senate committee, Knowlton and Roberts had a private meeting with Sen. Nancy Greene.

Knowlton said Greene was excited about the initiative and has written a letter to Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg, asking for support of the program.

With corporate backing, Knowlton said the Stop A Bully initiative can become more effective.

Mayors to discuss common issues Mayors from around the province are meeting in Penticton to discuss concerns they are facing.

The B.C. Mayors’ Caucus began on May 16 and continues

until May 18.

More than 80 mayors from around the province are attending.

Mayor Janice Perrino of Summerland said the caucus is a

chance for mayors to discuss items such as unions, highways, funding and health care as those issues affect them.

Municipal council representatives also

attend the Union of B.C. Municipalities convention each fall, but Perrino said the convention involves much time discussing resolutions.

The UBCM also

gives community representatives the opportunity to meet with provincial government ministers to raise specific issues affecting their communities.

The caucus will take on a format similar to a round table discussion, she said.

Mayor Dan Ashton of Penticton, a member of the steering committee for the

Donating dishes The Women’s Opportunity Service Organization donated kitchen dishes and small appliances to Agur Lake Camp. The organization, which is an independent registered not for profit Summerland group, focusing on fund-raising efforts to support women, children and their families in the community has donated this gift to outfit the first cabin. From left are members of WOSO Marlene Hikichi, Gunny Johnson, Gladys Schmidt, Dixie Rosher, Janet Peake - WOSO President, Noreen Henderson, Celia Burton, Linda Guernsey, Agur Lake vice-president Beth Bonton, Janice Mallory and Agur Lake president Carla Ohmenzetter.

caucus, said the event will allow discussion on common challenges.

“We are all looking to find new ways to make ends meet, we have challenges with funding and revenue and I’m looking forward to working hard with more than 80 of my colleagues from around BC to try to find workable solutions,” he said.

Mayor Dianne Watts of Surrey said it is important for mayors to discuss the way services are provided.

“The current model is broken and as mayors we need to meet to discuss a collaborative approach to reversing the unsustainable trend that most municipalities are facing, she said.

“Municipalities provide the vast majority of the service in areas such as infrastructure while being given only eight cents out of every tax dollar to do it.”

The B.C. Mayors’ Caucus is structured after models across North America and Europe.

Credit Union to shred documents

by John Arendt

On Saturday, May 26, from 10 a.m. to noon, the Summerland Credit Union will offer its annual shredding service to the community.

Summerlanders with confidential papers they no longer need can have them shredded later this month.

IN

Herlinda Mills, manager of human resources and marketing for the credit union, said the initiative is one of several green efforts by the

financial institution.

The Credit Union has also been working to reduce the amount of paper it generates and to that end, has offered

electronic statements instead of paper statements to account holders.

This year, from January to the end of March, the Credit Union saved the equivalent of 19 trees as a result of its initiatives.

“We’ve already saved more than

one million pieces of paper in our office by streamlining,” she said.

Mills said the confidential shredding service is important for those who wish to destroy older paperwork.

“Your whole financial life is on that statement,” she said.

As a result, she urges people to stay with their paperwork until it has been shredded.

Last year, the Credit Union filled a truck with the paper shredded.

Following the shredding, the paper is taken away for recycling.

Summerland artist stars at festival

by Barbara Manning Grimm

Summerland is a great place to be an

artist, says Val Eibner, featured artist at the Meadowlark Nature Festival this weekend.

She has worked as an artist in many parts of Canada and travelled the world meeting artists. She

finds Summerland to be unusually helpful. Tradespeople and businesses are quick to lend a hand cut-

Meadowlark artist Summerland artist Val Eibner is in her studio workshop packing up fused glass pieces for the show opening Friday at the Penticton Art Gallery.

ting a piece of wood or shaping a piece of metal and ask nothing in return. She has made her home here for the last decade, and also worked here in the 1970s and 1980s.

Eibner has donated a fused glass sculpture entitled Eye Spy a Meadowlark to be raffled off during the 15th Meadowlark Nature Festival. Her work will be on display at the Penticton Art Gallery from May 18 to June 17.

She has worked in glass for the last 10 years, but her first career was as a master potter and sculptor.

She built kilns from scratch and made clays and glazes.

A native of Manitoba, she taught in Ontario and Calgary before moving to Summerland for the first time.

In 1978 she purchased the old nurses’ residence on Solly Road and established a pottery studio.

During this time she was one of the artists mentored by George Ryga, novelist and playwright.

Further accomplishments followed at Banff School of Fine Arts, a pottery

studio in Abbotsford and in work as a set dresser and sculptor for movies.

Eibner returned to Summerland in 2002 and began to work in her new medium of fused glass. She and Summerland glass artist Maryan Dennison worked on commissions for the Osoyoos Indian Band and Nk’Mip Winery.

Eibner also created windows for the Moog and Friends Hospice House in Penticton. She continues to do private commissions as well.

For nine years she has been a member of the Ars Longa artist group in the Okanagan, which promotes Canadian artists, art in the home and emerging artists.

New grad to volunteer in East Africa A Summerland student is going to Tanzania and Rwanda in early July.

Mary Whittaker will be volunteering with the One Person Project, a local organization that

supports two communities in East Africa.

She will leave on the self-funded trip a few days after she graduates from Summerland Secondary School.

She has been

involved with the project since its inception in 2006.

Many of the Summerland Secondary School teachers are supporting the trip by sponsoring Tanzanian teachers to

attend a One Person Summer School.

The one-week summer program is designed to help teachers speak and teach English.

In Tanzania, English is the language of

instruction at all levels of education after Primary.

The course will also help the teachers to discover ways to use the classroom resources such as flash cards that

One Person has sent and will be sending.

Whittaker and Tayah Chuback held a book drive to collect books for the One Person Project.

School textbooks

Canadians are living longer and costs for the Old Age Security (OAS) are rising.

On April 1, 2023 the Government of Canada plans to start raising the age of eligibility for OAS and the Guaranteed Income Supplement (GIS) from 65 to 67.*

What does this mean for you?

54 or older as of March 31, 2012

You may still obtain OAS/GIS at age 65

53 or younger as of March 31, 2012

The age of eligibility for OAS/GIS will change gradually between 2023 and 2029

Starting in July 2013, Canadians who are eligible for, but not yet receiving OAS will have the flexibility to delay y receiving it in exchange for a higher monthly amount at a later date.

The number of working-age Canadians for every senior is decreasing** 6 5

The number of working-age Canadians per senior is decreasing, placing additional pressure on the OAS program.

and other resources will be shipped to Kahama, Tanzania at the end of 2012 in the 40-foot container situated in the Penticton Walmart parking lot.

Through the generosity of Okanagan schools, hospitals, businesses and families, this will be the third container to be filled with life-changing resources such as classroom supplies and medical equipment including beds and operating tables.

One Person also sends sewing machines to help individuals and organizations set up self-sustaining businesses, and sports equipment and uniforms to help encourage school attendance and build self-esteem in the students.

At present in Kahama, unless a school has received items from One Person, classroom walls are bare, shelves are empty and paper and pencils are scarce.

There will be 30 teachers in this year’s program and One Person is still looking for sponsors.

A donation of $30 will help transform a community.

The shipping container will be leaving this November if organizers can raise the remaining $15,000 of the shipping costs by then.

For further information, or to make a cash or in-kind donation email Denise at info@ theonepersonproject. org or telephone at 250460-0565 or view the website at theonepersonproject.org.

Garden tour in June Summerland Quest Society is planning its eighth bi-annual Garden Tour June 23 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. featuring 10 Summerland gardens.

The tour will be self-guided with a map provided. Tickets went on sale May 15 at The Sweet Tooth and Martin’s Flowers in Summerland and Art Knapps in Penticton.

Proceeds will benefit the Quest Society community projects.

No better time to amp up your training The beautiful warm weather is here, and it almost makes you want to go to the beach. Well, maybe not quite yet!

Maybe you’re happy to have an extra month or two to whip yourself into great shape (or better shape) before sporting your summer swimwear.

This past weekend,

I found myself shopping for a new swimsuit. I was inspired by a beautifully warm sunny day, thinking that I’d love to go for a swim in the lake.

But, I know rationally, that last year I didn’t go for a swim until the first week of July, so I have about a month and a half to go before the lake warms up enough

for me to do some laps out to the dock at Peach Orchard Park.

But wouldn’t it be nice to have a short term goal to motivate you to get active now?

How about signing up for the 30th anniversary Giant’s Head Run (five and 10 kilometres) or Man of Steel Triathlon?

The event takes

Play ball

place during Summerland’s ActionFest weekend, Saturday June 2.

This is a familyfriendly, non-intimidating community race that will give you the perfect motivation to amp up your training — whether it be running, swimming (indoor thank goodness), or biking and have some fun

with hundreds of other participants of all ages and abilities.

It truly is a feel good family event that kicks off the summer to a healthy Okanagan lifestyle — a little bike, swim, run with lots of family and friends cheering you on.

You just can’t beat that.

Carla McLeod Special to the Review

The Fleetwood Outlaws, seen here at bat, went up against the Kelowna Warriors in a weekend softbal tournament at Dale Meadows Complex. The tournament was sponsored by the Summerland Girls Softball Association.

Softball tourney draws 20 teams Summerland Girls Softball Association hosted teams from the Okanagan, Similkameen, Kootenays, Prince George and the Lower Mainland last weekend at Dale Meadows Complex.

The Summerland Wild Things U13 team played the Vernon team at 8 a.m.

Saturday to start the games with a win of 14 to 13.

Their second game was against Kelowna T-Birds which was close but it ended up as an 8 to 6 loss.

Prince George was the next team and once again the girls played well but just

did not score enough runs, losing 12 to 6. On Sunday morning at 8 a.m. Cawston Kobau Koyotes played Summerland and once again the girls were winners by an 11 to 4 score.

They seem to like the morning games.

They played well for the weekend but did not make the semifinals as they ended up in fifth place.

The U14 semifinalist was Cawston against Penticton Power, while Richmond played Kelowna T-Birds. Cawston won 15 to 4 and Richmond defeated Kelowna 12 to 1 so

the finals were set.

The U14 final started at 3:30 p.m. and after five innings Cawston Kobau Koyotes were the champions by a 10 to 4 score over Richmond Strykers.

The Summerland Days Inn Scorch U19 was also playing last weekend at Dale Meadows with 13 teams in their side of the draw.

The team started the weekend at 8 a.m.

Saturday, meeting the Fleetwood Bandits.

The girls played well with Erin English pitching and Odessa Cutt catching but they were defeated as

the bats did not work well at that time of the morning.

The second and third games were played against Fleetwood Outlaws and then Langley.

Even with a beautiful home run in the Langley game by Erin English, the girls still lost both games.

The pitchers Devyn Blac, Erin English and Faith McDonald and catchers Devyn Blac, Odessa Cutt and Erin Gabriel all played well.

In the team’s last game against West Kootenay the girls got the win they had been looking for, win-

ning 9 to 5.

The semi-finalist on the U19 side was Fleetwood Outlaws versus North Langley Impact while Delta Red Sox played Salmon Arm. After a close-fought game Delta defeated Salmon Arm 8 to 5 and Fleetwood Outlaws won 13 to 3 over North Langley.

The final was a five inning game with Fleetwood winning 7 to 4 over Delta.

The public is invited to watch girls softball Monday to Thursday evenings at Dale Meadows #2 to the end of June.

ber watching the participants cross the finish line after the Giant’s Head Run, and it was beautiful to see the swarm of supporters gathered to congratulate the hard working racers.

The runners, with sweat on their brow, were proud to continue the healthy community tradition.

I must say that I do get emotional quite easily, but it was a smorgasbord of photo ops with children, teens, parents, grandparents in a picture perfect community event.

I have competed in two Man of Steel Triathlons in a mixed team, myself swimming, and friends Andy Burden running and Brian Coote cycling.

Twice we have won the relay event, and this year we wanted to three-peat.

I don’t have my World Championship Medal hanging on my wall, but I do have last year’s Man of Steel medal up. My sons were so proud to watch. This year, my physical body has changed, since I’m three months pregnant with our third child, but I still have a personal goal to get

Joanne Malar more active.

Maybe our team won’t be as competitive with an expecting mother but sometimes it’s the journey and not the destination. I want to enjoy the community event on Saturday, June 2 and be a part of the races: for fun, fitness, health and goal setting.

It’s a great way to kick off the summer with family, friends, and community.

I look forward to seeing you on the road or pool on Saturday June 2. Keep practicing! Register at runningroom.com.

Obituaries

Leigh Trafford It is with great sadness that the family of Leigh Trafford announces the sudden death of this very special man. Leigh leaves behind to love and miss him forever, his best friend and beloved wife, Anna, and his stepson Rick Ahtila. He shared a special love for his sisters-in-law, Helena Kankaanpaa, Hilkka Kivirinta, Ulla Grant and their families. Leigh is also survived by sister, Jacqueline Trafford of Victoria, and nieces Cydney, Shannon and Alison. Leigh was born in North Vancouver, but grew up in Peach Valley, Summerland with his parents Ben & Lucy Trafford. It is there that began his lifelong love for the orchards. Throughout the years, he always had a little peach block to work on, sharing the fruits of his labour with family and friends. In 1994, he met the love of his life, Anna, and they began to build a life together of love and mutual respect. Leigh owned and operated Allstar Spraying for many years, pruning and spraying backyard fruit trees for the people of Summerland. Leigh loved his books, reading was his passion, and writing at one point a newsletter, The Midweek Tattler. Leigh loved to travel, and together he and Anna travelled throughout the world learning, and at times writing about his travels, but his happiest moments were sitting on his front porch with his Anna talking about the world around them. Leigh fought courageously and without complaint for the last two years of his life against kidney failure, always grateful to the wonderful people that made it possible for him to be here a little longer. His highest regard and thank you to Dr. K. Hendry, Dr. Brian Forzley, and especially to Hilary DaCosta of the Renal Clinic. A Service of Remembrance will be held on Friday, May 18th, 2012 at 11:00 am at the Summerland Funeral Home, 13205 Rosedale Avenue, Summerland, BC with Pastor John Briscall officiating. Donations to the Kidney Foundation of Canada, BC Branch, 200-4940 Canada Way, Burnaby, BC V5G 9Z9 are greatly appreciated.

Condolences may be directed to the family through providencefuneralhomes.com.

Thank You Summerland for your support, emails and words of encouragement.
