Interior Health has placed another highlevel administrator at the beleaguered Summerland
Seniors Village in what it described a “rare and unusual” measure. The health authority announced last week it appointed the administrator to oversee residential care at the privately owned facility, which has
been under intense scrutiny of late. Provincial legislation allows IH to appoint an administrator to run even a private community care facility if there are reasonable grounds to believe that there is a risk to the
health or safety of a person in care. “This is a rare and unusual step but one that we feel is necessary,” Dr. Andrew Larder, a senior IH medical health officer, said in a press release. “Interior Health has

also brought in additional nursing staff to work at the site to help bolster the clinical leadership we feel is crucial.” The health authority funds 75 of 80 residentialcare beds at the facility and 18 of 36 assistedliving suites. Summerland Seniors Village also boasts 70 independent-living units. It was in one of the independent-living units where 91-year-old Alfredo Bonaldi was found near death in November after he was stricken with a suspected case of food poisoning. His absence at meal times should have caused staff to check on him, but didn’t, and he died in a hospital two weeks later. Multiple investigations were launched after Bonaldi’s family went public with the story. The facility is owned by Retirement Concepts. Interior Health’s licensing program continues to work with the site to address infractions identified during inspections in October and November. Licensing met with the operator as recently as Jan.14 and since that meeting, has laid out items that need to be addressed within specific timeframes. These reviews have identified common areas of concern regarding staffing levels, education and training, and leadership.
On-call firefighters better deal Summerland’s auxiliary firefighters will be getting a better deal, thanks to an initiative passed by Summerland municipal council this week. The remuneration policy for auxiliary firefighters was changed in order to reflect the current pay scale for auxiliary firefighters at emergency incidents and
training events and to improve the payment for extended training. The current policy did not correctly reflect the current rates. The recommendation had been discussed during an in-camera session on Jan. 14. They hadn’t been paid when training sessions ran overtime, such as weekend-long training
sessions, but now will get an extra $10 an hour when training runs over four hours. In addition, travel expenses will be paid for training sessions located outside the District of Summerland. Fire chief Glenn Noble presented the new policy to municipal council at this week’s council meeting, saying the auxiliaries did not ask for
the change in rates. Weekend training sessions can run from eight to 20 hours, and the auxiliaries had been receiving little for the time they put in, often traveling outside the community for training. Coun. Martin Van Alphen, who initiated the effort, said he takes his hat off to the firefighters. “It’s a difficult thing
to attract and keep volunteers.” It’s a small amount we pay them for the large job that they do.” Coun. Robert Hacking added that it is only fair to pay auxiliaries for the training that takes them outside the community and away from their families on weekends. See FIREFIGHTERS Page 10

Pink Shirt Day events set
Police report Washing machine on the road
A vehicle travelling north on Highway 97 the evening of Jan. 25 hit a washing machine in the road. It had fallen from a southbound vehicle and bounced across the road. The driver who had just bought the washing machine in Kelowna was ticketed for failing to secure a load. The other vehicle received extensive damage and had to be towed.
Offered ride
Police were called after a motorist offered a ride to a student last week. The incident occurred on Jan. 22 at 8:20 a.m. on Dale Meadows Road when an older man, driving a grey van, asked a 13-year-old boy if he wanted a ride. The boy refused and the motorist drove away. Police later investigated and contacted the driver, who said he had offered the boy a ride because he looked cold. 281922_18th annual_Jan 26 not 10/31/12 6:48incident AM Page Summerland RCMP do believe the is connected to similar incidents in Penticton.

Summerlanders will show their opposition to bullying through a number of initiatives later this month. Tina Martin, chair of Summerland’s antibullying committee, said residents are encouraged to wear pink T-shirts during the week of Feb. 25 to 28 for Pink Shirt Day on Feb. 28. She said the shirts are worn as a sign of opposition to bullying. In addition, the group will show Bully, an American documentary following five families for a year and examining how bullying affects them.
Following the film showing, the South Okanagan Victim Assistance Society and the South Okanagan Women in Need Society will hold a question and answer session. “It’s very emotional,” Martin said of the film. “If anyone has been bullied, it will trigger a lot of memories for them.” She added that the discussion becomes complex since defining a bully is difficult. “Often, the perpetrator is hurting and has been a victim as well,” she said. “Bringing that into the discussion is important.” The date of the film showing has not yet been
finalized. At the Summerland Steam Junior B home game on Feb. 8, players from the Steam and the visiting Penticton Lakers will wear pink during the game as a way of participating in the anti-bullying cause. “The Steam has been very supportive of this initiative,” Martin said. Students f ro m Summerland Secondary School will also work on a video project to raise awareness of bullying and show the community’s commitment to stop bullying. Martin hopes the promotional events for Pink Shirt Day will lead to
lasting behaviour changes. “Unless people are willing to stand up and make a significant change, it just goes in circles,” she said. Mayor Janice Perrino said the week is important as a way to change attitudes about bullying. “Does it have an impact? Slowly but surely it will,” she said. “Often, a powerful change is done consistently but slowly.” The antibullying committee formed in November and is working to define Summerland as a bully-free community. The group has a website at bullyfreesummerland.com and a Facebook page under Summerland — Bully Free.

Council report The regular meeting of municipal council was held on Jan. 28 in council chambers. Coun. Bruce Hallquist was absent.
Resolutions
Committee appointment
Council appointed the Director of Development Services or his designate to the Regional Growth Strategy Technical Advisory Committee.
Development permit denied
A development variance permit for 11606 Rutherford Ave. was not granted. Council vote was 3 to 3 in the absence of Coun. Bruce Hallquist, so it was not approved. The application was to increase the size of the allowable farm home plate in the A1-Agriculture Zone from 905 square metres to 1,240 square metres. The owner wants to put up a building for a home business.
Zoning amendment approved
Municipal staff will prepare a zoning bylaw amendment to rezone a portion at 26405 Garnett Valley Road from FG-Forestry Grazing to A2-Agricultural Large Acreage Zone. Eighty acres of the parcel are to be planted in grapes instead of the current alfalfa crop. The property owner will have to split the cost of a fire hydrant with the municipality.
Planning and zoning amended
Municipal staff will prepare an amendment to the Summerland Land Use Map in the Official Community Plan to designate 10 parcels on the west side of Bentley Road from Agricultural to Light Industrial. Staff will also prepare an amendment to the plan to address policy for light industrial. An Official Community Plan Bylaw Amendment will also be formed to add a development permit area for the Bentley Road Industrial Area. The amendments will come back to council in March.

EDITORIAL
our pick
A shirt is not enough Summerlanders are being asked to wear pink T-shirts for a week in February to show their support for an anti-bullying initiative. The cause is important. Bullying is a problem which has not gone away, despite efforts to stop it. It has become serious enough that a few years ago, teachers at Summerland Secondary School created Stopabully.com, an online tool to allow anonymous reporting of bullying incidents at schools. This initiative came despite strong anti-bullying messages which had been presented for decades. Despite the ongoing emphasis on creating bullyfree schools, some students are still victims of bullying behaviour. And, in a world where cyber-bullying, workplace bullying, elder abuse, domestic violence and more have become all too common, something must be done. Participating by wearing a pink shirt is a way of showing support, but such a gesture by itself is not good enough. Without further action, a pink shirt is as meaningless as clicking Like on a Facebook status or putting a magnetic ribbon on a car. It becomes a nice statement, but nothing more. True support will lead to action, not simply rhetoric. It may mean speaking out and reporting an incident of bullying or abuse. It may mean befriending a victim of bullying. It may mean telling someone his or her behaviour is not acceptable. Support for this cause or any other cause must go much farther than a T-shirt and a slogan. Unless action accompanies a message, the message is meaningless. There is nothing wrong with wearing a pink shirt during Pink Shirt Week, but involvement must not stop there. The T-shirt and the message are not enough.
For the past seven years, the people of Summerland have given generously to the One Person Project and its work in Kahama, Tanzania. Some have given items and money while others have given their time and skills to help in the region. Summerland and Kahama have a Friendship City agreement in place, but the generosity shown goes far beyond what one would expect from such an agreement.
New season for ‘School Wars’ VICTORIA – Like a bad reality show about a dysfunctional family, B.C. School Wars has lurched to life again for the 2013 election. Coming soon to billboards and buses across the province: staged pictures of sad-faced kids crammed into dirty classrooms by a heartless government. It doesn’t even matter w h i c h Tom Fletcher government. This ritual combat went on through Social Credit and NDP governments too. Premier Christy Clark opened the new season with her promised pitch to restructure bargaining. It suggested splitting up bargaining into traditional wage and benefit talks, and a separate table and fund for classroom size and support. Cast in her familiar role of the sullen, rebellious teenager, BCTF president Susan Lambert staged a news conference to distort and mock the government’s offer. A 10-year deal if we give up bargaining wages and classroom conditions? “Ludicrous.” What’s ludicrous is her characterization of a formula to link teacher pay to nurses, postsecondary faculty and other government workers. Nurses are renowned for getting raises when no one else does, so this should be an opportunity for these powerful unions
to co-ordinate. But the BCTF can’t get along with other unions any more than it can negotiate with any discernible competence. Lambert falsely claimed there was no consultation on the proposal. This reminded me how she low-balled the costs of her union’s demands by hundreds of millions during what passed for negotiations in last year’s strike season. Behind the scenes, the BCTF executive and the school
structure was just the ticket for public schools. Students are taught by example, if not by blatant propaganda in classrooms, that all problems are solved by demanding more money from the government. After this conditioning, older students are sometimes pressed into service as union pickets. There’s your Social Justice class, kids. Sorry about those sports teams and field trips, but we need those as bargaining
What’s ludicrous is her characterization of a formula to link teacher pay to nurses, postsecondary faculty and other government workers. district bargaining agent had just settled on a mutual costing model. What this means is the school districts, which have to make payroll and balance budgets, have convinced the BCTF to stop misrepresenting costs. I’ll believe that when I see it. Before Education Minister Don McRae had even spoken, BCTF vice-president Glen Hansman was growling his reply on Twitter: See you in court. That message presumably also goes for premier-in-waiting Adrian Dix, unless he replaces the hated B.C. Liberals in May, then quickly kneels before the BCTF and extends the key to the provincial treasury. Two generations of British Columbians have been bullied by this bad drama, since Bill Vander Zalm decided an industrial union bargaining
chips to get more paid leave time. To state the obvious, Clark and McRae staged this as a pre-election event to frame the issue. They knew their effort would be greeted as a declaration of war. The main reason the BCTF agreed to a contract extension with a wage freeze last year? It wasn’t the blindingly obvious fact that every other public sector union had already taken two zeroes. It was strictly tactics. Along with basic math and economics, a point the BCTF seems unable to grasp is that its strategy is self-defeating. Those sad kids are making more and more parents seek a better deal. Tom Fletcher is legislative reporter and columnist for Black Press and BCLocalnews. com tfletcher@blackpress.ca
culls
When an elementary school student was approached last week by a motorist offering him a ride, the boy refused and later reported the incident. This was the right course of action, since there have been cases of motorists luring children into their vehicles. In this case, however, the offer appears to have been a genuine offer of a ride to school on a cold day. It is sad when the initial response to such an offer is one of suspicion and distrust.

Thanks for secretly plowing snow Dear Editor: We all know the adage “it takes a village to raise a child.” I would like to borrow that concept and say, “It takes good neighbours to make
a village.” With such neighbours, we are thankful and proud to live on Fyffe Road. In the first couple of weeks of January, I was “shovelling” a losing battle with
daily snowfalls. Our driveway is wide and long and as the snow mass increased, I had to move our car from the garage out to a position two to three car lengths off the
roadway. I shovelled an area a car width and a half to park the car, then reversed into the parking spot and got “royally stuck,” which necessitated spending the
The Early years
better part of an hour getting the car free and widening the exit to the roadway. For all that I, a 5’2 1/2” 112 lb senior, enjoy the daily exercise of shovelling snow, it was getting to be a bit of a battle to keep our driveway clear. Between 5 p.m. that night and 8 a.m. the next morning, someone, “The
Fyffe Road Good Samaritan” plowed a large area around our car, including the hard packed snow that accumulates with the passage of the municipal snowplow. Would the “Good Samaritan” who ploughed our driveway please identify yourself so we may thank you in person? But, if you
choose to remain anonymous and “pay it forward,” would you please accept this letter as an expression of our appreciation and thanks? Ross thanks you, Loretta thanks you, and Loretta’s muscles thank you. Loretta and Ross Krauter Summerland
Passerby chipped in and chipped out ice Dear Editor: Last week I was struggling to break up the thick ice build up at the bottom of my driveway. A gentleman driving a black pick up truck stopped and asked if he could help. He spent quite a
bit of time breaking up the ice with a pick axe and then shovelled it off to the side of the driveway. When we offered to pay him for his work he refused payment and suggested we give the money to the Food Bank. The money has been
given to the Food Bank in appreciation of the gentleman’s good deed. A huge thank you goes to this man for taking the time and energy to stop and help a senior. Bless you! H. and E. Hutchinson Summerland
Commons ready for another round

Winter pruning is in full swing, with orchardists braving the snow and cold temperatures to ensure a good harvest this year. It was the same in the 1930s, though the tools may not have been as high tech—no hydraulic, pneumatic or electronic pruners or long-reach chainsaws. In this photo Tom MacDonald and Floyd Peck had good old dependable arm’s length pruning shears. It’s a timely reminder that a lot of hard work goes into growing the fruit that we enjoy. February is Apple Month, so why not celebrate with warm apple crisp, apple pies, and of course, cider, made from apples grown in the orchards of Summerland.
As you may have heard, this week the House of Commons will resume sitting on Parliament Hill for what is expected to be another robust session of debate and discussion. Some of the already identified items on the projected order of business for this week include Government Bills C-48 and C-52. Bill C-48 is the “Technical Tax Amendment Act”. Over time tax amendments are often introduced by Government that make changes to various aspects of income tax and sales tax much as was done recently in Budget 2012. Ultimately these proposed tax amendments must
Ottawa Report
Dan Albas be included within legislation and to date is has been well over 10 years since the Act was last updated thus creating a significant backlog. One of the benefits of a stable majority in the House is that these kind of technical tax amendment bills that are important to ensure the integrity of our tax system, were often
neglected during the recent minority years of Liberal and Conservative governments. As this is more of a technical Bill it is not expected to be a controversial one and the tone of today’s debate seemed to be generally supportive. Bill C-52 “The Fair Rail Freight Service Act” is in response to recommendations made by the Rail Freight Service Review Panel. In summary, challenges can arise within sectors of the agricultural community in securing mutually s u p p o r t e d agreements between shippers and railway companies. Dan Albas is the MP for OkanaganCoquihalla.

Thursday, January 31, 2013 Summerland Review
Denesiuk new college vice-president Connie Denesiuk, for many years a Summerland school board trustee, has been chosen to serve as the vice-chair of the Okanagan College Board of Governors. She was named to the position last week, taking over from Tom Styffe, who was named chair of
the board. “It’s interesting to see the great work Okanagan College is doing,” she said. The board of governors sets the strategic directions for the college. Denesiuk said this includes working with the changing needs of
the communities and students served by the board. Okanagan College has a presence throughout the Okanagan Valley, including in Summerland. While a 27-hectare parcel in Summerland was designated for a college campus more
In 1988, Gary Skinner was confronted by a horrible reality that he could not ignore. Uganda, the country that he had laboured in for eight years was being ravaged by a merciless disease called AIDS. A generation was being decimated and another generation was rapidly being orphaned. What could he do? He was reminded of the Bible verse, James 1:27, which says‚ “Religion
that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after the orphan and the widow in their distress.” As a result, Watoto Child Care for Ugandan orphans was born. Instead of institutionalizing these vulnerable children, they are put together with caring women who have received training to become “house mothers” to families of orphans. To raise awareness and gather support
from all over the world, Watoto began sending out choirs. This year‚ the choir program is called Beautiful Africa: A New Generation. The choir will perform in Summerland on Saturday Feb. 2 at 6 p.m. Summerland Pentecostal Church, 9918 Julia St. invites you to experience a message of hope and inspiration as the Watoto Children’s Choir share their songs.
Message of hope in children’s concert
than a decade ago, Denesiuk said this property likely will not be developed for this purpose in the near future. “It’s very expensive to service and build,” she said. “We’re talking about significant dollars that aren’t available. At this point, there is
not a viable business case to do something with that land.” She added that she will work to provide innovative programs and courses for Summerland. Denesiuk joined the college board in 2012. She had completed a a threeyear term as the
president of the B.C. School Trustees’ Association. She also has served as a school trustee for 19 years. Of those years, nine were served as the chair of the Okanagan Skaha School Board. She is also a partner in R.Denesiuk
Construction, a family business she has run with her husband since 1980. She said the role of vice-chair is a good fit for her, especially with her long experience at the school board level. “It’s quite a natural progression,” she said.

Thursday, January 31, 2013 Summerland Review
Why do we need a tourism logo? Two weeks ago, the Chamber of Commerce’s Tourism Advisory Committee presented Summerland’s new tourism brand and logo. Most people really like it and a few people hate it. That’s probably normal for any logo. The bigger questions are really “what is it for” and “why do we need it?” In July we wrote a column describing the business of tourism and how in Summerland, tourism is approximately a $50 million enterprise responsible for 500 direct and indirect jobs. That’s a huge com-
ponent of our economy and deserves to be treated as a distinct entity even though it’s the combined effort of many tourism suppliers in our community. Let’s call this entity ‘Tourism Summerland’. If Tourism Summerland is distinct, it needs to have many of the materials of a regular business; it needs branding, a logo and a marketing plan. Tourism Summerland needs to be very clear about what it is saying to tourists about who it is. The face of Tourism Summerland points out of the community, to our
visitors. The new tourism logo should not be confused with the logo for the District of Summerland or the logo for the Chamber of Commerce. Both of those are distinct organizations serving the existing citizens and/or businesses of Summerland and their logos are their corporate identities. This new tourism logo will be used on all materials that are geared to tourists. Examples are the annual visitor guide and the new tourism website that the Chamber is developing.
Last year, the Chamber asked the Tourism Advisory Committee to decide what we wanted to say about Summerland to our visitors. The committee unanimously agreed that the following ‘positioning statement’ was a true reflection of Summerland: “Summerland captures the essence of the Okanagan with an abundance of historical, cultural, recreational and agricultural experiences. Meandering roads with views of brilliant blue water, lush orchards and vineyards entice visitors to stop and
Continued from page 1 The training pay rate for a probationary firefighters is $20 per session. A firefighter/ EVO/NFPA gets $25 a session, and the officer rate is $30 a session. Authorized
training events will pay an additional $10 for each hour of training in excess of four hours. Travel expense claims will be paid for training sessions located outside the District
of Summerland in accordance with District Policy. The probationary firefighter regular rate is $15 an hour. Rate for a firefighter is $17 an hour; emergency vehicle operator, $18; NFPA
1001 Certified $19; and Officer rate $19. Part time employee rate is $17 for auxiliaries requested to assist with fire department duties. The standby rate for auxiliaries is $3.13.
Chamber Corner
Arlene Fenrich sample the local fare. The charming town centre, anchored by Giant’s Head Mountain, offers an opportunity to share in the genuine allure of the community. A true patchwork of activ-
ities and vistas, Summerland is the local’s pick for an authentic Okanagan experience.” Once the positioning statement was finalized, the designer chose a curving symbol that looks a bit like steam rising from our train and reflects our winding roads and amazing vistas. The logo uses colours that represent water, agriculture, wineries and sunshine. The invitation on the logo to “Take Your Time” invites tourists to visit, relax, and enjoy all that our community offers. Once our visitors
arrive, we all know that the most effective marketing tool is a warm smile and greeting from a resident. So Summerland, please do what you do best, and welcome our 2013 visitors to town. We always appreciate your feedback. Please contact me at president@summerlandchamber.com or Christine Petkau at manager@summerlandchamber.com. Arlene Fenrich is President of the Summerland Chamber of Commerce. All of the members of the Board of Directors serve as volunteers.

information for seniors
A forum on Feb. 9 will provide seniors with information on wills, exercise and elder abuse. The forum is presented by NeighbourLink. Wendy Williams of Get Bent Studio will have an introduction to chair yoga. Myrna Tischer of the South Okanagan Seniors’ Wellness Society will discuss elder abuse, how to identify it and what to do about it. M i r j a n a
Komljenovic of NeighbourLink said the chair logs session could lead to a future yoga class for seniors in Summerland if there is enough interest. She added that chair yoga is a good form of exercise for those using wheelchairs or walkers. The elder abuse discussion is also an important topic, she said. “A lot of the elder abuse which
occurs is with family members,” she said. If there is enough interest, there may be a longer workshop on this topic at a future date. The forum, at the Seniors’ Drop-in Centre, 9710 Brown St., will be held on Feb. 9 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. There is no admission fee, but donations are appreciated, Komljenovic said.

Thursday, January 31, 2013 Summerland Review
Team Kripps keeps drive The bobsleigh team led by Justin Kripps of Summerland kept up the momentum in the two-man World Championships in St. Moritz this past weekend. Ranked 12th going in, they finished in 12th place overall after four good consistent runs. The coaches gave Team Kripps a new brakeman, Neville Wright. He is a member of Canada #1 team and was a teammate of Kripps at the 2010 Olympics where they both
crewed on Team Lueders. Wright and Kripps worked well together producing some fast start times. In the final heat they had the fifth fastest start time. St, Moritz is known as a challenging driver’s track. It is the longest of all the tracks and the fastest speeds are reached here, even faster than Whistler. Kripps drove well in his first time competing at St. Moritz. World Championships always seem to
produce some unusual events. This one was no exception. Two of the Russian sleds were disqualified after the second heat for using each others sleds. The rules are you must use the same sled throughout the competition; apparently they inadvertently mixed them up. It’s just as well Team Kripps has the distinctive
“Pharmasave” logo on his. Canada #1 (Team Rush) went in to this competition as one of the favourites but unfortunately just didn’t have the runs they hoped for and finished eighth. Canada#2 (Team Spring) had their best race of the season and placed sixth. Overall it was a good result for Canada with all three teams in the top 12. A total of 38 teams
Scoreboard
took part. The World Championship fourman will be held this coming weekend. The coaches are taking another gamble and have mixed it up again. Two of the crew from Team Kripps have been interchanged with two on Team Spring. Team Kripps will be Kripps, James McNaughton, Tim Randall, and Graham Rinholm.

Pee Wee House Jets victors in final game The Safari Water Treatment Pee Wee House Jets faced Penticton 4 at McLaren Arena Sunday Jan. 27 for their final game of the season. Tristan Preston, assisted by Calum Bird, opened scoring for the Jets within a minute of play. Penticton replied at the three-minute mark of the first period. Then Declan Riddle, assisted by Riley Haist, put Summerland back in the lead two minutes later. The loyal and vocal Jets fans were on the edge of their seats throughout the scoreless second
period. Penticton tied it up five minutes into the third period and pulled into the lead with seven and half minutes left in play. The Jets maintained the pressure and two minutes later Liam Hrncrik tied up the game with an unassisted goal. With two minutes on the clock Hrncrik scored the winner, assisted by Brendan McWatters and Preston. The Summerland Pee Wee House Jets won 4-3. Outstanding work between the pipes by Caylan Nault and Ben Bowyer. In a sport most
players start at five or six years of age, 50 percent of the 11 to 13 year olds on the Jets roster have played for fewer than two seasons. In fact, two started hockey part way through this season. In recognition of the monumental win and to honour a promise made to the team, Coaches Darren McWatters, Brian Hrncrik and Andy Tiel had their heads shaved by the players, witnessed by the players and families. The House Jets will start playoffs soon and have a tournament in March.

Museum asks for artifacts The Summerland Museum has received some newly restored artifacts in recent months, but the curator would like to see more items and pictures from Summer-
land’s past. “Think of us before you throw things away,” said Sharon Stone. Last year, the museum received a large bell donated by Luisa and Alfredo
Bonaldi, a 1910 Democrat wagon, restored and donated by John Topham and a 1920s orchard sprayer, also restored by Topham. A total of 325 items from 50
donors were acquired by the museum in 2012. At present, there are more than 6,800 artifacts stored at the museum building and in off-site storage containers. The museum also has more than 2,600 textual documents and around 5,800 original photographs from Summerland’s past. Staff and volunteers are now working to scan photographs for an electronic record. While many of the items are from the first decades of the 20th century and earlier, Stone said more recent items and photographs are needed now. She said former Summerland students, returning for reunions, often ask at the museum for photographs and items from their school days. The museum does not have such items
unless someone had the forethought to donate them. The same holds true for other items from the last 50 years. “When your grandkids come to Summerland in 50 years to research their family, you want to make sure we have what they are looking for,” Stone said. She would also like information and artifacts from the various Summerland businesses, in order to tell their stories to future generations. “It’s important that they think of us,” she said. Items from various cultural minorities are also wanted. “All cultural groups need to let us know about their heritage,” Stone said. Around 2,040 people visited the museum in 2012, with the majority from out of town.
