Ripe strawberries ready for picking

Justice Allan Betton. However, Betton noted Skreptak took several men with him on the trips as a “show of force.” “These are not, in my view, the markings of the intention described by Mr. Skreptak,” said Betton. “The accused’s response....was to act more in the form of a vigilante.” Skreptak, the court heard, confronted the second boy in the presence of his father and at one point struck the father multiple times in the face, resulting in many facial fractures that required reconstructive surgery. It is not clear if Skreptak committed the assault to intimidate the boys, who knew he was a Hells Angel, or if Skreptak hit the father because he was “lipping” him off, the court concluded. “Either scenario, it See Assault A15 Jennifer Smith STAFF REPORTER

IT WAS a great day for strawberries at Benvoulin Road Strawberries for Eva (left)

by police that evening. The Kelowna RCMP’s serious crime unit had the entire block cordoned off to investigate what was officially being termed “a suspicious death” at a Glenmore-area home on the corner of Yates and Ballou roads.

After 42 YEARS

On Tuesday, at 12:37 a.m., the police were called to the house where the paramedics were already on site. “When police arrived, they found a 27-year-old woman from Kelowna dead inside the home,” Kelowna RCMP spokes-

person Const. Kris Clark said in a brief media release issued the next day. Neighbours in the area told local media it was a couple who lived inside the house with their children and that social services had arrived to remove the kids.

It’s strawberry season—and they are the first in a long line of berries and tree fruits that ripen over the next few months in the Okanagan’s fields, orchards and vineyards. Since strawberries are a highly perishable crop grown in only a short season here, strawberry lovers have to seize the opportunity now to enjoy them picked fresh—ripened on the vine. Unlike pears, which must be picked prior to reaching maturity, strawberries are at their peak of flavour and sweetness when fully ripened on the plant. This week’s wet weather is not the best for their quality, but the cooler weather the past few weeks has resulted in an excellent crop this year, notes Gabe Coupal of Benvoulin Road Strawberries. He’s been growing them at that location since 1987 and after 25 years there, many residents already know where to go for u-pick berries. However, there are a number of commercial growers now in the Central Okanagan, although no processing plants such as there are in the Fraser Valley. Rather than ever-bearing or day-neutral strawberries, Coupal grows the Shuksan variety which is known for its flavour and sweetness, but which has a short season. He estimates there’ll be berries ripening for the next couple of weeks. However, they won’t be open for picking when it’s raining, so people are advised to call ahead. Some local growers do not offer the option of u-pick, but you can buy fresh-picked containers of the berries from them—without having to do any stooping or bending. In the Okanagan, strawberry harvest is followed by raspberries, cherries, apricots, peaches, plums, nectarines, pears, apples and table grapes. Look for local growers in the classified pages of the Capital News and at the Kelowna and District Farmers and Crafters Market. But RCMP have said nothing in the day since the death occurred. It has not been confirmed whether her death was a homicide, whether she lived in the home or had a partner. Police have not said whether anyone was

The wife of Hells Angel member Joseph Bruce Skreptak wiped away tears after he was sentenced to 26 months in jail for an “unprovoked” assault on another man. The sentencing Tuesday came some six months after Skreptak pleaded guilty to the aggravated assault of the father of a boy he believed had stolen and pawned $10,000 worth of his jewellery. On Nov. 1, 2010, Skreptak went to the homes of two boys—who were friends of his stepson—to confront them about the missing items. Skreptak claimed in a letter to the court that he approached the boys— rather than go to police— to “give them a chance to come clean” and to get the parents’ help in preventing the teens from returning to his house, said

Wine festival teams up with Okanagan Pride Judie Steeves STAFF REPORTER

In a strategic move designed to attract new tourists to the Okanagan, the Okanagan Wine Festivals Society and Okanagan Pride Society have teamed up to present a kick-off event called Viva Las Pride, for this year’s Okanagan Pride Festival in August. The festival began seven years ago and has so far concentrated on ‘homegrown’ entertainment, explains Wilbur Turner, president of the OPS, but this year’s event will be quite different. “This year, we’ve hired headliner entertainers and plan to attract lots of people from outside the Okanagan,” he said. Wider promotion of this year’s weeklong pride festival will attract people to this area and show the acceptance and diversity of the Okanagan, he said. He expects it will attract pride tourists from throughout B.C. and Alberta and showcase the wines of this region in a fun, informal manner. Wine festivals society president Eric von Krosigk noted, “The growth of pride festivals across Canada is an indication of the importance of pride tourism. It represents a well-educated, travel-oriented and often affluent tourist that loves wine.” Pride tourism is a growing force, added Blair Baldwin, coordinator of the wine festivals society. It’s a great fit for the industry to partner with the pride society to present an “eccentric evening at the Laurel,” he noted. Turner said he expects this year’s event on Friday, Aug. 16, 7 to 9:30 p.m., will be sold out, and he anticipates they’ll be looking for a larger venue for next year. There’ll be 20 wineries participating, and finger foods will be available, while

burlesque dancers entertain and while ‘eye candy’ are walking around. As well, there’ll be gaming tables set up. Turner will emcee the event, dressed in drag and returning to the Oddree Mayormaynotpersona he adopted at last year’s festival. Later that same evening the second annual drag competition will be held featuring professional drag entertainment and celebrity judges. A top drag king and queen will be named. It’s sponsored by the Kelowna Actors Studio. Turner said they’ll also be bringing in a gay rights activist from Los Angeles, as well as a famous drag queen during the festival. “I believe the festival will continue to grow,” he said. Last year there were about 800 to 1,000 people involved in the pride festival, but this year he expects there’ll be 1,500 or so. “You’ll have to book ahead,” he commented. The pride festival is Aug. 10 through Aug. 17. Funds raised during the festival go to the ongoing operation of Okanagan Pride, including such programs as Etcetera, for youngsters from 15 to 25 years of age. “There was nothing here for the LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender),” explained Brad Therrien, vice-president of Okanagan Pride, “so we set up a safe space for youth to be themselves; label-free. It’s inclusive.” It’s a space for youth, and programs run by youth, he said. It’s an advocacy program run by volunteers, he explained. However, with the closure of the pride centre in Kelowna, they’re currently looking for a sponsor for a new space where they can begin to meet again next fall, he said.

Film business showing signs of growth in Okanagan roger knox CONTRIBUTOR

It’s one of the most enjoyable political appointments of John Trainor’s 17-year local government career. And the merriment will continue for the Armstrong councillor, who was named chairperson of the Okanagan Film Commission for a third straight term at the commission’s annual general meeting

Tuesday in Kelowna. “It’s a lot of fun,” said Trainor. “The Okanagan Film Commission operates on such a miniscule budget that the amount of business we’ve been able to bring to the Okanagan is amazing.” More than 10 years ago, circa 2002, the commission’s annual budget was $325,000. That has been pared considerably. In 2011-12, the budget

—with money coming from the province and the regional districts of North and Central Okanagan, plus Okanagan-Similkimeen and Boundary-Kootenay—was $195,500. The budget went up to $211,500 for 2012-13, yet brought in $27.5 million to the Okanagan, Similkimeen and Boundary regions. The proposed budget for 2013-14 is $235,000. Thanks to 15 film, ani-

mation and commercial shoots in the books for this year, the film commission has already surpassed last year’s total by $1 million with $28.5 already in. Companies such as Kia and Manulife Financial have already been to the region to shoot highend commercials and have left. Others are still to come. “We should be recognized as the major eco-

nomic development agency in the Okanagan Valley, doing what we do at a fraction of the cost of most in-house municipal economic development committees,” said Trainor. The $28.5 million brought to the region could climb even higher in 2013. “Could” being the key word as rumours persist that a major Hollywood production with a well-known leading man

is slated to shoot in the North Okanagan, starting either in late August or early September. Trainor, however, goes the route of the silent movie when asked about it. “I am unable to comment on the many rumours circulating,” he said. Animation has played a big key in the film commission’s success. See Growth A4

More people continue to move from B.C. to other provinces than migrate west, according to the latest Statistics Canada estimates. Quarterly Statistics Canada figures show a net loss of 1,611 people from B.C. to other provinces from January to March this year. That is the seventh straight quarter of net out-migration from B.C., with the last net increase of 73 people recorded in the April-June quarter of 2011. In 2012, while B.C. was a net loser of about 7,000 in interprovincial movements, Alberta gained about 43,000 and Saskatchewan gained about 2,500 people. NDP leader Adrian Dix said Wednesday the latest totals mean B.C. has lost a net 12,000 people to other provinces since Premier Christy Clark took over. Dix said the number of private sector jobs has declined since Clark launched her jobs plan, and her government continues to cut the budget for job skill training. Dix said the NDP government of the 1990s saw an increase of 129,000 people in interprovincial migration, and during Gordon Campbell’s term, there was a net increase of 64,000. Clark shrugged off the numbers Wednesday, saying B.C.’s overall population continues to grow. “More people are coming here than are leaving, and we need to continue to work to make sure that more people are staying,” Clark said. “We’re competing hard with Alberta and the oil sands to keep people here.”

Guilty plea for theft

▼ WEATHER

The woman charged with stealing from a high school band fundraising account has pleaded guilty. Court records indicate Elizabeth Sherwood, 47, pleaded guilty to theft over $5,000 on Tuesday. It is one of three charges laid against Sherwood after a lengthy investigation that began after Okanagan Mission Secondary school staff noticed unauthorized activity in the school band parents’ program fundraising account in 2010/2011, RCMP said in February. In all, nearly $23,000 was discovered to be missing. Sherwood is the former treasurer of the fundraising account. She’s scheduled to return to court Aug. 13 to set a sentencing date.

Rain warning will continue Judie Steeves STAFF REPORTER

A rainfall warning was still in effect for the Central Okanagan late Wednesday, with the possibility of thunderstorms and hail, and showers tapering off today. Meteorologist Doug Lundquist with Environment Canada’s mountain weather services office, said a low pressure system moved in Tuesday, carrying moisture from the Texas gulf area, and it was expected to drop a lot of rain in Alberta, as well as in the South Central Interior of B.C. Depending on where the centre of the storm is, the forecast was for 25 to 40 millimetres of rain here he said.

The wettest part of the system passed through this area Wednesday with more rain at higher elevations than in the valley bottom, he said. And, the heaviest rains will hit the Similkameen, Nicola, South Thompson and in the Monashees east to the Kootenays, as well as in the foothills of the Rockies, said Lundquist. By Friday, the system should be through and a Western ridge of drier weather is expected to go through over the weekend, he said. Okanagan Lake is currently five centimetres below what’s called full pool, or the target level, and Des Anderson, section head for public safety and protection at the natural resource operations

WHILE we wait for summer to kick in for the Okanagan, expect to see more rain for today and Friday. ministry, said it increased the discharge of water Tuesday afternoon from Okanagan Lake to make room for more inflow to the lake . He said it will depend on the size of the event and how widespread the storm is, whether there’s

any flooding as a result. Melting snowpack is no longer a concern in the Okanagan, he added. Central Okanagan emergency services coordinator Jason Brolund noted that June is normally a very wet month in the Okanagan.

wharf. At the time, he explained his goal was to eventually have the Fintry Queen sailing to and from six or seven different locations along Okanagan Lake, bringing passengers to various tourist hot spots throughout the valley. Until that demand is established, he said the vessel could operate as a dockside restaurant, offer-

ing cruises in the evening. Mechanically, the ship is brand new, he added. More than $800,000 was spent between 2005 and 2008 to bring all elements of the vessel up to proper Transport Canada codes and requirements. District staff identified several challenges related to Schwab’s request, including a general inconsistency with the vision

and objectives set out in the recently adopted CNR Wharf Park Plan. There would also be a need to amend two existing tenure agreements, as well as the zoning bylaw to permit commercial use at CNR Wharf. Insufficient parking was identified as another issue. “When Mr. Schwab first came to council, I just didn’t see how his goals

(would be) able to mesh with our community’s vision for what we want down in that area,” said Coun. Gord Milsom. “We just need to say ‘no’ and continue with the plans we already have in place.” Mayor Doug Findlater said the inclusion of the Fintry Queen within the scope of the CNR Wharf Park Plan “clearly doesn’t

We would need other businesses adjacent to it down there…it’s some distance (from) Westbank Centre,” said Findlater. “It’s nice, it’s pretty, but I just don’t see where there is any benefit. “There’s a lot of cost in

Council wants municipal hall in Westbank Centre Wade Paterson STAFF REPORTER

West Kelowna municpal council says it would prefer a future municipal hall be built in Westbank Centre rather than Boucherie Centre. A formal market sounding document was issued by the district in March. A number of responses were received from both private citizens and land owners of various commercial properties in West Kelowna. In order to move forward with the process, council was asked to decide whether it would rather see a municipal hall built in Westbank Centre or Boucherie Centre during its meeting Tuesday. “Westbank Centre is really the only logical place to focus our discussions in terms of development of a civic centre at this point in time,” said Coun. Duane Ophus. Ophus added the district has moved the municipal hall process along quickly in recent months; however, in the big scheme of things, West Kelowna is just on schedule. “We’ve been here now in this facility just over five years. We made a commitment to the community at the time we came over here that we’d be here for 10 years maximum. It’s really important we move this process along…it’s going to take some time.” Specific properties and locations identified in Duane Ophus the market sounding remain confidential. There are both private and public options available. Mayor Doug Findlater noted the site of George Pringle Elementary School was mentioned by a few residents during the market sounding process; however, the school district quickly indicated it plans on using that facility for at least another decade. According to Findlater, the next major challenge for the district will be accumulating the dollars needed to take on such a project. “There is absolutely nothing budgeted for this in our long-term capital plan,” said Findlater. “There are some funds being set aside to divert (the current municipal office space) back to its previous use. We do have some funds for future expenditure. But it’s pretty slim pickings.” Consultant Jonathan Huggett will investigate Westbank Centre site options, prepare a financial feasibility report and is expected to report his findings back to council in September. wpaterson@kelownacapnews.com Twitter: @PatersonWade

HELPING KIDS…The residents of the Chatsworth Retirement community in Kelowna have

been raising money through their H.O.P.E. program (Helping Others for Purposeful Engagement). The money raised went to the Willow Park Church Community Youth Outreach and “Send a Kid to Camp” program. The Chatsworth residents have been busy knitting blankets to sell, baking for a bake sale and hosting a wonderful evening of music by the theatrical group M.A.S.K. (Musical Actors & Singers of Kelowna), the group kindly donated their time for this good cause and about 100 tickets were sold. Eva Wiebe, a member of the church, explained to the residents the work Willow Park Church does with local youth from their “Juice” program on Thursday nights, when some 300 kids gather for an evening of special events. The wrap-up of the fundraiser saw youth and leaders from the church and seniors and staff from The Chatsworth come together at the Willow Park Church parking lot for a car wash and hot dog sale. The combined total raised was $2,000.

The woman accused of stabbing a man on Leon Avenue last week has been granted bail. Sheila Devilliers, 47, is accused of attempted murder, aggravated assault and assault with a weapon in connection to last Thursday’s stabbing of a 39-year-old man outside the Gospel Mission. He suffered non life-threatening injuries. Police say Devilliers was in a previous relationship with the man and allege the stabbing was preceded by a verbal argument between the pair. Devilliers, who wore her curly blonde hair in a

bun, sat quietly in a Kelowna courtroom Tuesday as lawyers made submissions about bail at a 40 minute hearing. Details of those submissions, as well as the judge’s reasons for granting Devilliers’ release on a no deposit or surety recognizance, are subject to a publication ban.

through the Competition Bureau. Since 1990, the Competition Bureau has conducted six major investigations into allegations of price collusion in the gasoline industry. While some individual retailers have been fined, most recently in 2010 in Quebec, it has concluded that periodic price increases are a result of market forces such as supply and demand and rising crude oil prices. Anyone wishing to file a complaint regarding gas prices, or anyone with evidence of collusion among retailers, can call 1-800-348-5358 or submit a complaint to the Competition Bureau at www.competitionbureau.gc.ca. The second area of federal jurisdiction is taxes, specifically the GST and excise tax. The GST is five per cent which our government reduced from seven per cent shortly after being elected. This major tax reduction continues to help Canadians deal with the cost of living and provides permanent, long-term relief to Canadian consumers across a broad range of purchases, including gasoline. The federal excise tax on gas, which is 10 cents a litre for regular

fuel and four cents a litre for diesel, has been unchanged since 1995 and 1987 respectively. These rates do not vary with the retail price of fuel. Revenues from federal excise taxes go to the Consolidated Revenue Fund and are used to support a broad range of federal programs for all Canadians, such as health care, post-secondary education, seniors’ benefits, infrastructure and national defence. Taxes on fuel are also remitted at the provincial and, in some cases, at the municipal level, which is why prices vary between provinces and even within cities. In British Columbia for instance, we pay federal and provincial taxes, a carbon tax, and in some cities like Vancouver and Victoria, municipal transit taxes. The price of gas has led to a number of constituents asking the federal government to regulate the industry. Regulation of the gas industry is strictly a provincial responsibility and while some provinces have opted to regulate gasoline and other fuel prices, this approach has not resulted in lowered prices for consumers in these jurisdictions. Provincial price regulations are generally intro-

duced to provide more stable prices. This brings us to the behaviour in the local market. Years ago my wife Cindy and I used to operate a gas station in Edmon ton. Then, as now, the price we pay for gasoline at our local service station can vary quite a bit from city to city. Other than taxes, price differences between cities across Canada depend on other key factors including competition and consumer choice, transportation costs to bring the gas to its destination, the amount sold, and the type and location of stations. I’ve made a few inquiries and have been told that the Kelowna market is considered to be a market with less competition, higher transportation costs, and one without the competitive benefit of big

box store gas retailers like the Costco in Kamloops. These factors mean we pay more than other B.C. cities, including neighbouring cities. According to MJ Ervin & Associates the price breakdown of a litre of gas is represented this way—about half of the price is determined by the price of crude; 15 per cent by the refiner mark up; five per cent is the retail marketers mark up; and roughly 31 per cent is taxes. Like coffee, gold or pork bellies, gasoline is a commodity and the wholesale price reacts to a number of factors including changes in world crude oil prices, availability of supply to meet demand, local competition among retailers, seasonal demand—i.e. the annual spike in demand for gasoline during the summer driving season, and inven-

tory levels. In recent years, the combination of all of these factors has led to some of the highest prices for crude oil and gasoline in the last 10 years. They have also led to frequent changes in the price that we pay at the pump. The federal government will continue to monitor fluctuating prices to ensure they do not exceed normal reaction to market forces. While we don’t pay the lowest prices for gasoline worldwide, we do benefit from a reliable supply, which is important considering how much we depend on gasoline and other fuels for our day to day activities.

▼ OKANAGAN COLLEGE

New course offers place for musically shy boomers to band together

An Okanagan musician, who has played sessions with stars like Patrick Simmons from the Doobie Brothers and studied music under Quincy Jones and Chuck Mangione, is giving shy boomers a chance to reconnect with their musical talents. “I’ve talked to so many people who tell me they’ve got a guitar, or an old saxophone, or maybe even a banjo their spouse gave them, and sometimes they bring it out and play it in their backyard, but they don’t have anyone to share that with,” said Henry Piovesan. “There’s too many of these guys and gals out there.” So Piovesan decided to do something about it. With 30 years of experience teaching adults, he’s now offering a Music Jam Camp at the Vernon campus of Okanagan College, with two sessions running from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. July 8 to 12, and again from

July 15 to 19. Provided through OC continuing studies, the $385 camp is expressly designed to bring together adults in their thirties and forties and let the music happen. “I’ve had adults come to the jam classes, meet one another and team up with others to jam outside of class,” he said. Piovesan started playing piano in high school, and received his Bachelor of Music degree at Berklee College of Music in Boston. From there he went on to form the band Formation, and then later Whitewater, sharing festival stages with Canadian luminaries like Burton Cummings and the Tragically Hip. Piovesan said finding musical mates gets harder as people get older. “When they’re teenagers in high school, they find each other through

band class,” he said. “Then in their twenties, they’re playing in the clubs. “There is a group of older players who go to jams like the ones at the Blue Gator in Kelowna, but there is a huge population of people that quit as they get older, and the guitar goes under the bed.” Piovesan said the course is open to adults age 15 and up with a treasured instrument and a willingness to shake off the cobwebs for a challenging musical experience with a minimum of formal theory or practice. “Your existing abilities are all you need to jam,” he said. “Come with your instrument, a positive outlook, a playful spirit and an open ear.” To register for the course, visit www.okanagan.bc.ca/csreg, or call 250-545-7291 ext. 2850. For more information, visit Piovesan’s website at www.pianojam.com.

Take steps to avoid mosquito bites “It is important to remember there are preventative steps that everyone can take in order to reduce the risk of infection.” Jeyes offers the following tips: Use mosquito repellent. Apply mosquito repellent to areas of exposed skin. Check the product label for instructions on proper use. Repellents containing DEET are safe for those over six months of age when used according to the directions on the label. DEET-free products are available, but may not provide long-lasting protection. View the HealthLinkBCFile on DEET (link below) for guidelines on how frequently to apply repellent. Wear protective clothing. If you are in an area with lots of mosquitoes, wear loose fitting, light coloured, full-length pants and a long-sleeved shirt. Avoid perfumes, soaps, hair care products, and lotions with floral fragrances. Avoid outdoor activities at dusk and dawn. This is the time of day that the mosquito species that can carry WNv are most active. Install screens on windows. Screens will help prevent mosquitoes from

Anything that can hold water can be a mosquito breeding area. Identify and remove potential breeding areas on your property—empty saucers under flowerpots; change water in bird baths twice a week; unclog rain gutters; drain tarps, tires, and other debris where rain water may collect; and install a pump in ornamental ponds or stock them with fish. Stagnant backyard pools can be a big source of mosquitoes and should be maintained regularly to prevent mosquito growth. B.C. and Interior Health are on the watch for West Nile virus.

▼ OUR VIEW

Elect a Senate or abolish it

n the minds of many Canadians, the purpose of the Canadian Senate is a bit of a mystery. It’s a body that’s not elected, what it accomplishes is less than clear, and news about it only erupts when politicians talk about reform, or more recently, when senators play fast and loose with the purse strings of taxpayers. The original purpose of the Senate was to give a sober second thought to bills passed by elected Members of Parlia-

ment, and, according to its website, to bolster underrepresented groups, such as women, Aboriginal people and minorities. When it comes to being a champion of Aboriginal, women’s or minority rights, the Senate is perhaps the last organization that leaps to mind. As well intentioned as the Senate was when created in 1867, today the body is effectively a patronage system for the ruling party to reward loyal and often high-profile Canadians with prestigious well-paid jobs.

Prime Minister Stephen Harper has long advocated reforming Senate terms and appointment procedures, or even doing away with it altogether. That hasn’t stopped him from appointing 56 Conservative senators (and two elected in Alberta) over his time in office. If Parliament can’t abolish the Senate or it accepts that it has a reason to exist, change is desperately needed. Does it make sense that New Brunswick and Nova Scotia have 10 senators each and Que-

bec has 24, while Alberta has o six and B.C. has five? For the Senate to have f credibility, rather than act as t a vehicle for patronage and self-serving party loyalty, each l ( province should at least have an equal number of elected senators. Senators themselves should also not be sitting silent, and should be seeking to reform an institution that has no accountability or credibility in terms of working in the interests of Canadians.

Those who can, do, and those who can, also teach others

t’s amazing how often you come across people who give up a high salary and decide it’s time to give back. Giving back is often associated with teaching – especially if you have skills which are in high demand. A good example of this is someone who teaches shop at the high school level. Teaching shop at a public secondary school in the province of B.C. requires two things—you need to have completed a teaching degree with a focus on trades technology educa-

tion and you need to have an aptitude for the trades. That means skills in such things as automotive service, welding, elecJane trical and carpentry, Muskens to name a few. It’s the second which draws workers away from teaching and into industry, becuase it pays significantly more. Today, plumbers and electrician have wages well beyond those of teachers. If you take into account those who

SCHOOL’S IN

are willing to move to the north for work, the wage is often double. It’s not uncommon for Red Seal-certified trades professionals to make more than $100,000 per year working in the mining and oil and gas industries across Canada—mostly in remote areas. Shop teachers, on the other hand —although they have better working conditions and work less hours per week—don’t usually earn close to that. So why would you become a shop teacher if you could take your aptitude for the trades and make significantly more money? I think one of the main reasons is

they are probably the type of people who want more out of a job than money. The idea of giving back to a group of young people, seeing them find how rewarding it can be to work with their hands and, at the same time instill in them a passion for the trades, is probably something that drives them to teach. They may also realize that working away from their family, travelling in and out of camps and putting in long days is not something they are willing to do, regardless of the pay. I think this may be why some trades workers later in their career, consider becoming shop teachers.

Although it isn’t easy for teachers in some areas of Canada to find fulltime employment, there is demand for trades teachers as industry tends to draw people away from this profession. Currently, Okanagan College offers a two-year diploma in trades technology teacher education, which starts this fall. Upon completion of the diploma, students will transfer to UBC’s Okanagan campus to complete their M teaching degree. If you are interested in the trades, h a See Muskens A11y

To the editor: I read recently that the new RCMP building proposed for downtown Kelowna will cost the taxpayers $46 million dollars before the inevitable cost overruns. Am I only one of the few who are upset by this? To put this in perspective, in 2013 dollars, (Kelowna’s) Prospera Place (Arena) only cost $25

million to build. The new $46 million RCMP building would have to have many ultra-expensive features to make it cost so much more than Prospera Place. Has our anemic and impotent city council even considered alternatives to the entire plan to save the taxpayers literally tens of millions of dollars? If the RCMP needs

more room than they currently have, building a smaller secondary location would be more financially palatable than the exorbitant cost of their proposed new building. The crime rate has been going down steadily in Kelowna over many years and this has been part of a national trend, according to Statistics Canada. But it’s not ne-

cessarily due to the local efforts of the RCMP. With the reduced crime rate, the justification of an audaciously expensive new RCMP headquarters is lost on me. If this proposed building were in a United States jurisdiction, where such expenses need public referendum approval, it would be voted down by a massive majority.

The city says they will allow this building to be reviewed by the residents by the alternate approval process instead of making the responsible decisions that the taxpayers voted them into office for. I guess it’s now up to the electorate to defeat this lavish proposed new RCMP building since our council refuses to do so. Adrian Witt, Kelowna

B.C. premier needs to think of the environment next thousand or million.” Politics seems to be totally disconnected when we consider today’s technology at our disposal. Robotics has replaced human labour, and instead of celebrating and sharing this achievement, we’re in despair. An honest round table symposium could resolve these problems. The capability of gazillions of electrical radio TV and text signals through space and our body, without our aware-

ness, has been around since the dinosaurs and, in fact, forever. With the use of atoms human’s “discovered” this incredible technology, but is it all good? Financial fortunes are made and lost with the click of the mouse, or in a nano second by super computers, but no loss to those who operate and own the technology. Immature but computer savvy soldiers, indoctrinated with the enemy mentality, sit with a joy-

stick in comfort and control a drone that can snuff out the life of people half a world away. I’m deeply ashamed what has become of our species. You may not have the time to think of those things but you should, as you have accepted a mighty responsibility for the people of B.C., future generations and our planet. Gunther Ostermann Kelowna

Remembering the ‘privilege’ of helping the dying To the editor: This was inspired by a wonderful woman I cared for, she has since passed, but could be related to any of the men and women I have comforted during their last hours. Perhaps families and care workers can take something from this that is positive. Recently, I held the hand of a dying woman. The deep lines on her face tell a story of untold happiness, sadness, struggles and euphoria. Ten, 15, 20 minutes pass and I was lost in a daze. What was she thinking? Was she afraid? Did she have hope? I spoke to her in a compassionate voice, knowing the inevitable outcome awaiting her, but attempting to bring comfort between labored breath. She had not eaten in days, morphine maskedthe physical pain. Her body was wasting away.

Care aides are trained to help those who can no longer help themselves effectively. We motivate, wash, exercise and note any changes that are physical, psychological or behavioral. We listen, converse and love these aged beings in the absence of their families. Sadly we do not know the person they were in their youth, instead we often meet an obscure representation because disease has taken a firm hold. Dementia ranges from the mild sort of confusion that can lead to frustration, all the way to those who are unaware of their surroundings, date and even their most beloved. The lady I held adored her children, was kind and gracious to everyone, emigrated as a child from Poland to go on to shape young minds as a teacher. She brought value to, and was valued in, this world.

She was cherished by her kin. As I leaned over her bed, she stared up into my eyes, hers still blue as the sky on a clear day, like the eyes of my father. I was transported to the last time I saw my dad, the same sunken features, the lack of vitality. It was tragic to see my old man without his full face, the man from my childhood was strong and young. This lady reminded me how difficult it is to confront death, to confront a loved one’s death. Quietly, I spoke to her about how it is okay, that she would be in the arms of her mother and father again. She looked at me and blinked deliberately. Was this a blink meant to signal to me she understood? Beyond reason I accept this was what it was. It comforts me, it is difficult to imagine death without a hope of some-

thing more. A fairytale it may be, but we all need escape from time to time. She runs in the tall grass, her father chases her, her mother watches on, smiling, and wishes the moment wouldlast. Her father’s arms envelope her tiny body, she melts into his, it is ecstasy. This kind of devotion. Only a father can know the love a man has for a daughter. This kind of love cannot be extinguished and it is due to this that I was hopeful she would respond to my words about a reunion, an embrace she awaited for many years. After I got home I scooped up my daugh-

ter and held her tightly. I reminded her again how much I love her, and how she is everything I could have ever asked for in a daughter. She smiled knowingly, and returns my sentiment. This bond cannot ever die. I am a care aide. I care for and love those who have loved countless others during their time on this earth. They have experienced a lifetime of success and failure, happiness and sadness, struggle and euphoria. And on that day, I had the privilege of holding the hand of a dying woman.

As a physiotherapist, one of the most common treatment modalities I tend to use is acupuncture; due to its ability to decrease pain and inflammation and promote the body’s natural healing response. The most common questions I receive from patients include: What exactly is acupuncture? How can the use of acupuncture needles help improve my symptoms? Will the treatment cause discomfort? Acupuncture involves very fine needles made of stainless steel that are inserted into the skin and

underlying tissues at specific locations on the body. These points are located along meridians, which, according to traditional Chinese medicine, are considered channels that circulate energy throughout the body. The needles are then left in place for approximately 15 to 30 minutes. As the needles are very fine, minimal discomfort is felt as they are inserted and they should not be painful once in place. While the needles are in place a warm, dull, heavy ache sensation is often felt, known as de Qi. The needles stimulate

the body to release endorphins that help inhibit the pain signal along the spinal cord, which can help to decrease pain. Another benefit of acupuncture is the balancing of the autonomic nervous system, which is the internal regulation system of the body that controls factors such as hormones, blood pressure and blood sugar. This biochemical balance stimulates the body’s autonomic healing response as well as improves energy, promotes general relaxation and supports emotional wellbeing. Due to its many direct benefits including pain relief, decreasing inflam-

mation and encouraging natural healing, acupuncture is commonly used as a treatment modality in physiotherapy.

‘‘

ANOTHER BENEFIT OF ACUPUNCTURE IS THE BALANCING OF THE AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM

Acupuncture may benefit those with headaches, acute sprains and strains, acute or chronic low back pain, sciatica, and osteoarthritis.

In fact, the World Health Organization recognizes acupuncture as an effective treatment modality for headache, knee pain, low back pain, neck pain, postoperative pain, sciatica, sprains, and tennis elbow. If you have an acute or chronic injury and have not tried acupuncture before, it may be worthwhile to consider it as part of your treatment plan.

Mom achieves long-time dream to get a university degree Twenty years out of high school, Wendi Wright decided she needed a change. She was a long-time personal trainer but felt she wanted to do something more meaningful. “I just felt I wanted a bit more out of life than that,” says Wright, a Lake Country resident. She delivered the student address Friday to fellow graduates in the Faculty of Health and Social Development at the final of five convocation ceremonies held earlier this month at the UBC Okanagan campus. “I had heard about occupational therapy and all that it entailed. I wanted to expand my career in that area,” said Wright. “Plus I was raising two children and I wanted to be at home and be available for them. So I enrolled in the human kinetics program at UBCO.” She admits it wasn’t easy—taking plenty of grit and determination to complete her four-year degree—but Wright witnessed plenty of the same dedication in her fellow students and told them so in her speech. “I want to encourage them to recognize we all value education and that we work very hard to create our own models of excellence,” said Wright. She saw the same life lessons, values, work ethic and respect for higher education reflected in her classmates. “That’s something that I believe we carry on with through life in whatever areas we head into.” Now that she has achieved her Bachelor of Science in Human Kinetics degree, Wright will pursue her master’s degree in occupational therapy at UBC’s Vancouver campus in September. UBCO also awarded an honorary doctoral degree to world-renowned photographer Ed

Burtynsky, who tasked the graduating class of 2013 with a big job—take care of our planet. Burtynsky’s photography, which has been shown around the world, illustrates the damage that industrialized society is making to the planet. “When I graduated from university, the most important things on my mind were having fun, finding a job, and getting a girl,” he told the graduates. But the world is much different now, and society’s constant and unbridled need for energy is taking its toll. Graduates today face the grim reality that sustainably is no longer a simple catchphrase, but something that must be accomplished. While he spoke, large images of his award-winning photographs were displayed on large screens. They showed pockmarked mining landscapes, mills, garbage dumps filled with tires, hillsides scarred with train tracks and roads, and rivers filled with water now stained from years of industrial pollution. It is up to the next generation, he said, to find a way to solve the world’s energy problems and at the same time save the planet. “We must cease and desist in this rapid destruction of our environment,” he said. “Think of what we have today, what we have lost, and what we might not have in the future. “The choices we make today have a lot to do with the future of this planet. “Please, think of yourselves as campers, temporary visitors to our beautiful planet. And do what you can to leave a clean campsite.” UBC president Stephen Toope told students they are graduating into a

complicated and perplexing world. Governments around the world are fixated on the limited notion that an educated person needs to generate skills to fuel the economy and match available jobs. “The risk to government is that they set their sights too low,” Toope said. “The skills that we need in our fast-changing society include the ability to work effectively together in teams; to sift, analyze and evaluate the plethora of information that comes at us minute by minute; to draw creative connections between seemingly disparate phenomena.” Toope urged graduates to become engaged citizens. “Citizens voice opinions and organize their societies; they take action in the face of injustice and inequality. “Educated citizens deploy their critical capacity, and empathetic judgment to become leaders of citizens.

“That is your potential and one that I wish our governments would more firmly embrace.” UBC chancellor Sarah Morgan-Silvester said graduates are entering a transition in their lives, and it takes courage to go from student to the next stage of life. There are setbacks and challenges but these too are part of the transition, she said. She likened graduation to spring renewal as gardens come to life and warm sunny days replace the dull greyness and cold of winter. “Change is a challenge. Even so, I do hope you will step out beyond the exposed fault line and seek the growth of your own personal spring.” UBC Okanagan campus deputy vice-chancellor and principal Deborah Buszard reminded graduates that they are the change agents of the future. “When you began as students of UBC, you were encouraged to make

this university experience your own. Many times during your student lives, you have heard the UBC motto, ‘Tuum est. It is yours, or it is up to you,’” Buszard said. “Now that you are graduating, this phrase takes on new meaning. The future, in fact, is up to you.” Buszard pointed to the

social and environmental challenges that exist in the Okanagan and around the world, reminding the graduating class that their university education and experiences have equipped them to improve their communities and contribute to the world in meaningful ways. “Our graduates are the impact we have on the

ince mental illness affects roughly 20 per cent of the population at some point, it is almost a guarantee that you will know someone who is experiencing a psychiatric condition. If it is a family member, close friend or colleague, you may even be aware of their mental health issues and it could affect you in some direct way. I hear daily about well-meaning but hurtful conversations between my patients and the people in their lives who do not understand what it’s like to live with mental illness and seem to have a knack for saying just the wrong things. Here are a few of the most common mistakes people make when talking with someone experiencing mental illness. Maybe this can help you avoid these pitfalls and be a sensitive, sympathetic ear for a loved one. In general, the kinds of remarks that are generally not helpful are those that imply mental illness is some sort of character weakness or something you should be able to overcome easily. Statements such as “you just have to want to feel better,” “just snap out of it—everyone feels this way sometimes,” “stop focusing on the bad,” or “you have everything

you need to get better” imply that mental illness is something that can be conquered with simple mind over matter techniques. Those kinds Paul Latimer of comments also make a person feel as though their illness is somehow their own fault or something they don’t want to get over. In reality, it is not possible for a person to simply snap out of depression, anxiety or other psychiatric symptoms. Although everyone experiences feelings of sadness or nervousness in life, these are very different from true depression or anxiety. Quite often, patients tell me of family or friends who tell them to pray about their symptoms and seek relief from a higher power or God. While it may be helpful to feel support from a faith community or belief system, this does not replace medical treatment when it is necessary. Telling a person to simply pray could cause them to delay life-saving, proven treatment for a serious illness, and also often leaves the individual feeling as though it is their own fault when they don’t spontaneously get better. Questioning why a person is unable to work during a mental illness is also a conversation faux-pas.

HEALING MINDS

It implies the individual is simply lazy and using their illness as an excuse. In reality, many psychiatric conditions are very exhausting and can make it impossible to put forth the energy or focus required to maintain employment. Sometimes only a period of time away is needed while appropriate treatment is sought. Finally, it is not helpful to bring out very sad stories of other people you know who have had the same illness. While you may be trying to show some understanding or previous experience with the topic, telling about a loved one who killed themselves is not particularly encouraging to your friend in a current episode of depression. Sometimes the best way to engage with a loved one talking about their mental illness is to listen to their experience, take cues from them as to how many details they are comfortable sharing and be encouraging as they seek appropriate medical help. All of this comes back to the ongoing existence of stigma surrounding mental illness. We need to recognize that a psychiatric condition is an illness just as diabetes or any other chronic health issue. Just like other illnesses, mental health conditions can affect anyone and require management by health professionals. dr@okanaganclinicaltrials.com

Weekend fishing derbies attract young and old anglers Judie Steeves STAFF REPORTER

Sunny skies were accompanied by sunny smiles as more than 200 youngsters enjoyed Saturday in Shannon Lake Regional Park in West Kelowna catching fish during the 15th annual Family Fishing Weekend. More than 75 trout caught during the family fishing derby were registered as everyone competed for prizes gathered by the Peachland Sportsmen’s Association and organizer Al Springer and his team. “Many more fish were released to fight another day,” he commented. Winner of the donated Pirate Island Charter fishing trip for salmon on the Fraser River was Brandon Gaucher of West Kelowna. Largest fish of the day was caught by Beata Kro, who reeled in a 15 7/16inch rainbow trout. Beau Drover won in the largest bass category.

“It was a great day with fish being caught all day for everyone who was able to come out and enjoy the outdoors,” Springer added. He noted that the opportunity for youngsters to learn to fish at Shannon Lake for the past six weeks or so is thanks not only to the PSA members, but also to the Freshwater Fisheries Society who supply the fish and the net to create a small area in a bay of Shannon Lake where youngsters have a good chance of catching a fish—perhaps their first. As well, regional district staff have come out on Sundays to help provide some guidance for youngsters who haven’t fished before, while PSA volunteers attended Saturdays to provide gear and instructions. At Saturday’s derby Save On Foods also supplied food for the lunch provided for all those families who attended. A similar number of

anglers entered the first Kelowna Fishing Derby on Okanagan Lake the same day, where Danny Coyne took home first prize of $5,000 for his 27 1/4-inch rainbow trout. Second prize went to Steve Wallick for his 26 5/8-inch rainbow, while Leanna Hudecz won $1,000 for her 24 1/2-inch rainbow. of the Central and South Okanagan / Similkameen Door prizes included a fishing trip and an in-

flatable kayak, the latter of which was won by T.J. Tuddenham. Lyman Lure packages were won by: Kelly Norman, Dale Johnson, Al Baranow, Ken Unser, Matt Dunn and Randy Romanchuk. Plans are to hold a second derby June 14, 2014. It was organized by Rodney’s Reel Outdoors and Suncruiser Media.

IAN Caird and his son Mason enjoyed the Peachland Sportsmen’s Association annual kids’ fishing derby held last Saturday during Family Fishing Weekend.

Assault from A1 was a serious and unprovoked assault with serious consequences,” said Betton. Skreptak’s known membership in the Hells Angels became an issue at sentencing, with the Crown arguing it was a “tool of intimidation” and the defence saying it had little relevance. However, Betton ruled Skreptak’s nine-year membership with the organization was relevant, as the fact that he was a member of the Hells Angels formed part of the “matrix” of the facts of the case and led to the boys being placed in witness protection. His membership was also a negative factor in considering his character, the justice added. However, Betton also noted Skreptak has no previous criminal record, a solid work history, a positive upbringing and is himself a family man. During earlier sentencing submissions, Crown sought a three year jail term, while defence asked for 18-24 months, with credit for time spent on bail and enhanced credit for time spent in custody prior to sentencing. Betton rejected the requests for extra credit, and only acknowledged the 112 days Skreptak spent in custody prior to Tuesday’s sentencing. Those days will be deducted from the 26 month sentence Betton handed down. As well, Skreptak was given a 10 year firearms prohibition and must provide a sample of his DNA.

Should I be reading between the lines? A read through the manual gave me a clue about how dangerous a chain saw can really be—at least in the wrong hands. The manual gives example after example of chain saw uses that should be avoided, most of which struck me as simple common sense. But I have the benefit of having grown up on a farm in Saskatchewan. Yes, the trees were a lot smaller back home than here, and I never got to operate the chain saw, but growing up on the farm seemed to instill a certain amount of common sense in me. The illustration of one particular safety warning struck my funny bone, as well as those around the camp fire who I showed it to. The illustration is of a fellow seated on a branch, up in a tree, using the chain saw to cut through the branch he is sitting on. There is a diagonal

line through the illustration, indicating that this is a chain saw use that should be avoided. The ridiculous illustration is an extreme example accompanying the following safety instruction: “It is not possible to cover every conceivable situation you can face when using a chain saw. Always exercise care and use your common sense.” I figure the catch-all safety instruction probably arose from a claim made against the chain saw manufacturer, in this case Husqvarna, by someone who hurt themselves doing something really stupid. The safety instruction is one that we all ought to follow, whatever piece of equipment we are operating; just substitute the name of any tool, device or machine for the words “chain saw.” The safety instruction happens to mirror an existing legal duty under British Columbia law that each of us owes to ourselves, as well as to those

around us. It is this legal duty that paves the way for civil lawsuits to recover fair financial compensation when those around us breach that legal duty, causing us injury. The same legal duty prevents us from an entitlement to compensation, or limits our entitlement, when we are to some extent the authors of our own misfortune. I suggest that our Motor Vehicle Act is an equivalent to the chain saw manual. It sets out all sorts of safety rules for the operation of motor vehicles, most of which are a matter of simple common sense. Like really, do we need a law that tells us to confine our vehicle to the right hand side of the roadway when meeting an oncoming vehicle? Have a look at section 154 (1) that states “The driver of a vehicle must drive the vehicle on the right hand side of the roadway when meeting another vehicle that is

moving.” The Motor Vehicle Act also includes the catch-all safety provision, prohibiting driving “without due care and attention.” Perhaps the legislation needs to be illustrated like the chain saw manual, to clue drivers in on ridiculous driving behaviours that offend common sense. The most dangerous driving behaviour is simply not paying full attention to the road ahead of you, a driving behaviour that would be eliminated with the exercise of a modicum of common sense. A motor vehicle is a whole lot more dangerous a piece of equipment than a chain saw, yet for some reason we leave common sense behind when we slip behind the wheel.

Those interested in registering to golf, or supporting the cause as a hole sponsor for $300, or a prize donor, should contact Magda Kapp at 250762-3233 or mkapp@ braintrustcanada.com. “Brain injury is one of the least understood issues we have today,” said Sean Pihl, with the Pihl Law Corporation. “Our firm sees numerous clients who have sustained brain injury through a variety of means and sadly the majority were preventable in some way. “Brain injury can be sustained through traumatic causes such as motor vehicle crashes, falls, sports injuries and assaults, as well as non-traumatic causes such as stroke, tumours or excessive drug and alcohol use. “Brain injury not only affects the individual but also their circle of family, friends and community.

Garden tour leads up to Guisachan flower show

Member of the FortisBC Contractor Program

nother successful Kelowna Garden Tour was held last Saturday, so kudos to all involved especially the homeowners who offered their properties to the public for viewing. The weather cooperated nicely and plant material was in great shape. Coming up this weekend, Saturday June 22, is the Kelowna Garden Club’s annual flower show. Here is your chance to enter your flowers and plants in a juried flower show and get some recognition for your efforts. Anyone wanting to enter flowers or plants in the show, contact Alicja at 250717-0570, Judy 250-861-5010 or visit www.kelownagardenclub.ca. If you don’t want to enter this year just come and enjoy the planned events for the day including an arts and crafts show, painting, flower arranging, and flower basket demos. There will be an orchid display and a special display of floral art. Master gardeners will be on hand to answer your questions. And I will conduct a walk and talk in the Guisachan Heritage Park garden at 1:30 p.m.

Ian Cameron, grandson of the garden’s creator Elaine Cameron, will be with me to add a special historical perspective. There is no admission and the show goes from Don 11 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. at Burnett heritage park, 1060 Cameron Ave. just off Gordon Drive. *** I am hearing some very disturbing chit chat about the possibility of the Kelowna Lawn Bowling Club losing its long-time location in City Park. I’m hoping this is just a misunderstanding, but if there is any truth to this you can bet I will have lots to say about it. The lawn bowling club is the last vestige of anything historical left in Kelowna’s largest park as the club has been a good steward of its little portion for many decades. My Grandpa Henderson was a member as have been many citizens of our city. The club has recently grown in membership due to a renewed interest in the game and work done to the greens over the past few years.

NEWS Burnett from A22 Last summer, a very prestigious tournament was held at the facility and more are planned for the future. Lawn bowling is a very cool sport which anyone can play to his or her own level. It cost a fraction of golf and other pastimes to participate in and contrary to popular thinking, it is not just for older people. This is a sport that is actually taught in high school in the UK. I would much rather see some young people doing their thing on the bowling green than having their faces and thumbs planted in a Blackberry. There should be thoughts of enhancing its presence in the park and promoting it, not the opposite. *** We lost a dear friend recently and I am so sorry I wasn’t able to attend his service. George Hillian my Grade 10 high school English teacher passed away at the age of 91. I always enjoyed running into him and chatting it up over the years and I will miss seeing him. My condolences go out to his family. Tune in to The Don Burnett Garden Show on AM 1150 News Talk Sports Saturday mornings from 8 to 10 a.m.

▼ PICK A PIPER

Playing to the beat of his own drum Man Of Steel Jennifer Smith STAFF REPORTER

Talking to Brad Weber about Pick a Piper, it’s evident the project is about considerably more than mixing music—though this is what mixing looks like at its finest. Regularly touring with Caribou—Daniel Victor Snaith’s Juno-winning and Polaris Prize-snagging creation—one might say this is Weber sampling the sound-scape of his life. While Pick a Piper is technically three people—including high school friends and longtime collaborators Angus Fraser and Dan Roberts— Weber is the one at the ship’s helm, taking a few sounds from one musician and adding a few samples from another friend. “It all goes through my process because it gives it, kind of, a consistency,” he explained, noting all three play the drums together when playing live and Fraser and Roberts primarily handle the vocals. Assembling an album that’s heavily dance-influenced, using creative beats and an abundance of synthesizer, the work incorporates solid instrumentation with elements of glockenspiel, flute, and guitar, not to mention guest vocals from members of Ruby Suns, Enon and Brainiac, Born Ruffians and Braids. The result is an album music writers describe as “poised between the organic and synthetic” and he doesn’t mind admitting he’s out to make as many of the synthesized samples look and sound as though produced on a more traditional instrument, and equally the

packs a punch

other way around. “I try and stay away from genres. It’s important for me to make music that excites me and that I’m excited to hear how people react to it,” he said. When the show hits the road, this means assembling track after track of samples in order for the stage presentation to resemble a record it took the group five years to generate. The self-titled debut includes strings of contributors and collaborators, Weber’s met and asked for input.

IT’S IMPORTANT FOR ME TO MAKE MUSIC THAT EXCITES ME AND THAT I’M EXCITED TO HEAR HOW PEOPLE REACT TO IT. Brad Weber

At times, he would give different artists the same basic snippet of music to work on and then wait to see what returned. The offerings were often similar, though could be wildly different, and took time to clip and craft into his own tune sound. Some samples he created himself. From working at airport gates while waiting for flights—largely on tour with Caribou—to actually sitting on the plane making music, he found some of the most unlikely places to work. Once his headphones went on, people would leave him to work in quirky silence. As for the result, is it the dance music with

mer Brad Weber plays Kelowna’s Habitat on June 28. The stage show resembles their debut, self-titled album, though the string of collaborators used cannot appear on stage acoustic layers of drums he once envisioned? No. But then, like Snaith, Weber does not stem from the kind of personal musical traditions that leave one in an easily defined territory. While Snaith earned a doctoral degree in math in the years before his Juno, Weber said he was

more of the attention-deficit type, even shunning music because he didn’t want to practice the piano. Drums opened the door to the world he now can’t spend enough time in and it’s clear from this album what makes him tick is a beat. “I think every time I sit down to record a new

batch of music, I’m just figuring out what the next album might feel like,” he said. “I haven’t really finished anything in a while, I’m just enjoying the process.” Pick a Piper plays Habitat June 28. jsmith@kelownacapnews.com Twitter: @jaswrites

o, I thought to myself, do we really need another Superman movie? Well, if you like science fiction, if you like more action and destruction than you’ve seen in a long time, if you like Russell Crowe, Diane Lane, Kevin Costner and Amy Adams, and, if you like two hours of watching hunky Henry Cavill, then yes, we do need another Superman movie. We all know the story. The planet Krypton is self-destructing and JorEl (Russell Crowe) wants to save the race by sending his son to a far distant planet in the hope he survives. So Kal-El (Henry Cavill, the first non-American to play Superman) shows up on a small town farm and is raised by the Kents (Diane Lane and Kevin Costner). Amy Adams, as curious reporter Lois Lane, seeks the story that changes everything, despite the reluctance of her publisher (Lawrence Fishburn). Adams has previous Superman connections as she played Jodi Melville in Superman televison series Smallville. Well, about that time, the evil General Zod (Michael Shannon) turns up and the destruction begins. We aren’t in Smallville anymore.

This is the first Superman film that doesn’t feature Jimmy Olsen. Itwas filmed in Chicago and Plato, Illinois, under the code name August Frost. But it was a badly kept secret as the Chicago Tribune wrote a full article about the filming long before the movie was completed. The release of the film this month marks the 75th anniversary of Superman, who first appeared in comics. Canadian Joe Shuster and American Jerry Siegel created the character of Superman in 1933.

MAN OF STEEL OFFERS THE MOST EXCITEMENT YOU’LL GET AT A MOVIE THEATRE THIS SUMMER.

Go see this movie and pay to see it in 3D, this it’s worth it. Man Of Steel offers the most excitement you’ll get at a movie theatre this summer.

Based on the popular novel by Max Brooks, Pitt stars as United Nations employee Gerry Lane, who traverses the world in a race against time to stop the zombie pandemic that is toppling armies and governments and threatening to destroy humanity itself. Directed by Marc Forster, it’s one of the few movies with a myriad of production difficulties that has resulted in a successful outcome.

Sports Hall of Fame opens doors to new inductees

The road to the 1988 world junior women’s curling championship is a journey the members of Julie Sutton’s rink are unlikely to ever forget. Twenty-five years later, the Kelowna team is being honoured for its onice exploits as one of four new inductees into the Central Okanagan Sports Hall of Fame. The Sutton rink won both the 1987 B.C. and Canadian junior titles then, in 1988, claimed the first ever world junior women’s championship in Chamonix, France. Skip Julie Sutton (Skinner), was joined by Judy Wood (Conway), second Susan Auty (Hamilton), lead Marla Geiger (Mallett) and coach Dan Martell for one magical year of curling. The Sutton rink, along with the three other 2013 inductees, were introduced to the media on Tuesday morning at the

TO HAVE THIS HAPPEN NOW, REALLY MEANS A LOT TO US. Judy Wood (Conway)

Kelowna Museum. “To have this happen now, really means a lot to us,” said Judy Wood (Conway), the third on the Sutton rink. “At the time we were so involved with everything, we were busy curling and winning, and just in the moment. But now with reflection and time and the work we put in, and to see all the work that was put in by the people who were behind us, it’s a nice honour and recognition. Now that the years have passed, we can really understand what we did.” The other 2013 inductees include:

A standout track and field athlete in high school in Kelowna, Aynsley competed for Canada at the 1971 Pan American Games and attended the 1972 Olympic Games trials. Later, he shifted his skills to football where he played eight seasons in the Canadian Football League. Aynsley played with the B.C. Lions, Montreal Alouettes and Hamilton Tiger Cats. In 1977, Aynsley earned a Grey Cup ring as a member of the Alouettes and was named an Eastern Conference all-star. Aynsley, who said he is honoured by the recognition, has fond memories of his time spent playing pro football. “It was a lot of fun,” said Aynsley. “The league in those days was different, not the competition, but it was just tougher I think, in some ways, as a receiver. “I met some great people, played on some great teams and was coached by some wonderful people too.” Aynsley was named to the hall of fame in the athlete category.

In 1976, he was the second overall pick in the NHL amateur draft, taken by the Pittsburgh Penguins. Chapman, who was unable to attend Tuesday’s event, talked to COSHF managing director Pat Kennedy earlier this spring about draft day back in 1976. “I was in my car when I got the call,” said Chapman. “When the Penguins drafted me, I just drove to Kelowna, because I always loved Kelowna and couldn’t wait to get back.

Even though I was getting drafted it was like ‘I’m going home.’” Chapman played in the NHL with Pittsburgh and St. Louis between 1976 and 1983 and scored 110 goals and 241 points in more than 400 games. Chapman was named to the hall of fame in the athlete category.

WAYNE NORTH

North promoted, maintained and helped junior hockey succeed in the Central Okanagan for more than a decade. He was the owner and general manager of the BCHL’s Kelowna Buckaroos from 1971 to 1983,

and also coached the team in 1970-71. Under North’s guidance, the Buckaroos won the 1973-74 BCHL title, the Mowat Cup and the Doyle Cup. Fifteen Buckaroos during North’s era made it to the NHL, including Greg Adams, Doug Berry, Blair Chapman, Curt Fraser and Greg Fox, while many others earned college scholarships. North said he is humbled by his induction into the COSHF. “It’s quite an honour because we’re associated with so many great people that have been involved in sports here in the past,”

said North. “It’s certainly an honour and very humbling.” North was named to the hall of fame in the builder category. This year’s inductees will be officially enshrined into the Central Okanagan Sports Hall of Fame and Museum during a ceremony on Thursday, Nov. 21 at the Coast Capri Hotel in Kelowna, starting at 7 a.m. Tickets for the gala will be available at the Okanagan Heritage Museum, 470 Queensway Avenue, in Kelowna. whenderson@kelownacapnews.com

Five Heat players on Team B.C. B.C.’s U20 women’s volleyball squad will have a definite UBC Okanagan flavour as it takes to the court for competition this summer. Five members of coach Steve Manuel’s Heat squad have been selected to the provincial team’s roster CIS all-rookie team and Canada West allstar, setter Emily Oxland (North Vancouver), middles Katy Klomps (Surrey) and Katie Wuttunee (North Vancouver), and outside hitters Brianna Beamish (Surrey) and Kelowna’s own Kaitlynn Given will play for Team B.C. Training will be held in Kelowna prior to the

teams departure for Florida where it will represent B.C. internationally at the USA Volleyball High Performances Championships, July 23 to 27. The team will continue training in Florida until heading directly to the 2013 Canada Summer Games Aug. 2 to 18 in Sherbrooke, Que. “Playing in the Canada Summer Games is special opportunity and is something that I encourage all my eligible athletes to participate in,” said Heat women’s volleyball head coach and reigning CIS coach of the year, Manuel. “The games only happen once every four years so only a very select few

will have a chance to play in it. “In September these athletes will come into training camp for the Heat in mid-season form after the amount of top level competition and training they will undergo over the next six to weeks.” He said with the schedule being released for Canada West last week, he is excited for the season to start. Along with the five athletes from the Heat earning roster spots, the university’s Kelowna campus will also send Becki Kosinski, Heat assistant coach and Michelle Laviolette, who has been a student trainer with the women’s volleyball

program the past two seasons to Team B.C. Kosinski has been with the Team BC program for the past two years and Manuel said she will play an instrumental role with the team. Laviolette will travel to Florida and will be tasked with keeping the team healthy during training. Manuel also confirmed a sixth member of his team will participate in the upcoming Canada Games, as Megan Festival has earned a spot on Team Alberta and will go toe to toe with her Heat teammates this summer. Festival, an outside hitter, has played one year for the Heat and was

Falcons win after slow start Jays at home for next four PIL games How do you spell relief ? In the case of the Kelowna Falcons, it’s backto-back wins after opening the West Coast League season at 0-8. Geoff White’s club rebounded from a winless start with a 13-6 victory over the Victoria Harbourcats on Monday night at Elks Stadium. Then on Tuesday, Kelowna made it two victories in a row with a 4-3 victory over the visiting Klamath Falls Gems. The Falcons, who had been gripping the bats a

little tight, broke out offensively with 27 hits over the two games. “It was good feeling to get those first two wins,” said White, the Falcons’ head coach. “Definitely the boys were able to relax significantly and have a little fun out there. They were frustrated and maybe pressing a little too much, so these were big wins for us.” It was also the first time this season the Falcons were able to put all aspects of their game together on the game night.

“We had great starting pitching, timely hitting and the guys made a lot of nice defensive plays,” added White. “When put all those together you’re going to win some games.” The Falcons were scheduled to face the Gems in a doubleheader Thursday night, before heading to Bellingham Friday to start a threegame weekend series with the Bells. Kelowna will return home Monday for the start of a three-game series vs Walla Walla.

The event will feature Canada’s top track athletes, those who competed in the Olympics last year and Keefer will be in the blocks with them. Joyce got the call from the B.C. squad after taking first place in both the 100 and 200 metres at the Jesse Bent/Canada Summer Games trials June 8 and 9. It’s been a busy month for the entire Joyce family. On May 18 and 19, Keefer and Adele competed at the Centennial meet in Kamloops and both won their respective 100 and 20 metre events. At the B.C. high school championships, Elisa finished third in the senior 100m and fourth

in the senior 200m, while Adele made the final for both but was disqualified for false starts. At the Can Highlight Meet May 31 in Langley Keefer was third in the 100 meters, then the following weekend at an all-comers meet in Coquitlam was second in the 100. Keefer has made the standard for the junior nationals and will compete at the event July 12 to 14 in Sainte-Therese, Que. Both Adele and Elisa are hoping to make the standard. Meanwhile, Elisa is the first in the family to accept a scholarship to Duquesne University, a division 1 program in Pittsburgh. This is both academic and athletic scholarship. She will be studying biochemistry and minoring french.

Jennifer Kidd and -Michelle Smith notched markers in the first half eto make it OFC 2-0 at the break. After WFC narrowed 2the gap with a penalty shot in the 73rd minute,

The Whitecaps made it close with a goal in the 85th minute, but Okanagan tightened the reins and worked hard to the final whistle to preserve the win. “It was a fantastic team effort,” said Okanagan coach Claire Paterson. “Once we got on the score board we gained

some momentum and confidence that we could defend our turf. Our starting back line of Liz Babcock, Hayley Carlson, Jennifer Kidd and Justine Drosdovech really set the tone for our team defense.” On Sunday, OFC faced Abbotsford SC who just came off a 1-1 tie with Kamloops on Saturday. With both teams fighting the heat, it wasn’t until the 43-minute mark when a

0-0 stale mate was broken. OFC’s Haylee Lakovic, who cut inside from the right side and leathered a great left- footed strike from 30 yards out for the game’s only goal. Christine Tallon earned her second shut out of the season. Okanagan FC, now 6-2-2, is second only to the Whitecaps in the PCSL standings. OFC will visit TSS Academy this Saturday.

▼ MCCURDY BOWLING CENTRE; FREDDY’S BREWPUB

Masking backdrop units added to bowling alley STRAIGHT FROM DEHART

Maxine DeHart

cCurdy Bowling Centre and Freddy’s Brewpub have made some changes to their building. The entire look and feel of the Kelowna bowling centre has been changed with new and unique reversible masking units, which are large backdrops behind the bowling alley. The masking units are brand new to the Okanagan and actually make the lanes look shorter. (This does not affect your bowling!). Also look for new signage in the pub. McCurdy Bowling Centre has senior, mixed and men’s leagues along with public bowling. Freddy’s is one of the only brew pubs in Kelowna with its own brew master, Jack Clark, who formerly worked for Labatt Breweries. The pub now features its new Okanagan Life Lager brewed to a 2.8 per cent alcohol, not diluted, with 40 per cent fewer calories and lightly hopped with German select hops. Merlin Bunnage is the general manager; Michael Mitchell the food and beverage manager; Chris Bunnage the operations manager; and Dean Norris has been their chef for the past 10 years. Andrew Bruce is the new president of the Urban Development Institute’s Okanagan chapter. Bruce is presently the development manager at Melcor’s Blue Sky development around the Black Mountain Golf Course. Bruce was formerly with the City of Kelowna in the planning

department for 14 years. The institute represents all facets of businesses in development from planners to construction workers. Lee Riggs is the new national president of the telecommunications Workers Union. A local Kelownian, Riggs worked for B.C. Tel (Telus) for 32 years and will continue to work for in his new union position out of Kelowna. The union has 13,000 members in Canada, mainly with Telus employee members and some smaller companies. Congratulations to the two winners of the St. Hubertus Estate Winery design contest, who designed labels for their commemorative forest fire wines. Logan Miller was the winner of the Fireman’s Red Label and Ian Hoyte was the winner of the Glowing Amber Label. Along with $250 cheques, they will receive a bottle of the Fireman’s Red and Glowing Amber 10th anniversary edition on the Aug. 23 release day. That marks the day 10 years ago that the winery was destroyed by the Okanagan Mountain Fire. For every bottle sold, $5 will be returned to the Kelowna Professional Fire Fighters Charitable Society. Julie Krause has opened a rather unique piano teaching studio at 1889 Springfield Rd. called Julia’s Piano Studio. What’s unique is that Krause specializes in teaching adults and seniors who want to learn to play for fun (one of those bucket list types of things). She has four pianos in the studio and will do one-on-one lessons, groups or even married couples. There are no time constraints, meaning that she works around your schedule and does not make it imperative to have say, one of two les-

Learning about life insurance T he underwriting process of life insurance is import-

FISCAL FITNESS

If you are thinking about purchasing life insurance, you may find the application process and underwriting of life insurance a worthwhile topic to review. Insurance is purchased by you the consumer to pay out upon a financial loss. Vehicle insurance is purchased to pay a claim due to an accident where your vehicle is involved; home insurance is purchased to pay a claim with your house or contents; life insurance is purchased by consumers to pay out a lump sum amount after death. Insurance is purchased by you the consumer to pay out upon a financial loss. Purchasing life insurance may not be as easy

Doreen Smith as purchasing vehicle or home insurance—because life insurance companies agree to pay out a lump sum after death— based on the individual. When someone applies for life insurance, there is a strict underwriting process by the insurance company. Life insurance is underwritten before the policy is issued. At time of application all relevant information about health and financials is requested by the insurance company. Medical history of the applicant and of their immediate family, income

and lifestyle and occupation are questions to be completed by the applicant. Age, female or male, non smokers or smokers are all factors in determining the premium. Non smokers pay approximately half the premium a smoker pays. Males typically pay a slightly higher premium than a female for life insurance. Life insurance premiums vary upon the health and lifestyle risk of the insured. You can receive standard health, preferred health, a rated premium, which means an additional increase or a decline. If you have excellent health, you may receive an additional discount by the underwriter. There is no guarantee of a life insurance policy being issued. You have to be an ac-

cepted health and lifestyle risk. The review of this information by the underwriter allows the insurance company to properly evaluate a potential insured person’s suitability for coverage. Underwriting refers to the process used to access the eligibility of a customer to receive insurance. Insurance underwriters evaluate the risk and exposure of potential clients. They decide how much coverage the client should receive, how much they should pay for it, or to accept the risk and insure them. Underwriting involves measuring the risk to determine the premium charged to insure that risk. Each insurance company has its own set of underwriting guidelines to help the underwriter determine whether or not the company should accept the risk. The information used to evaluate the risk of an applicant for insurance will depend on the type of coverage involved. With life insurance you name a primary beneficiary and contingent beneficiary to allow the proceeds to be paid directly to the beneficiary after death. Upon a passing, life insurance is typically paid out within a few weeks after death. The certified financial planners designation means the advisor is technically competent in the area of life, disability and critical illness insurance and must continually meet education, examination, experience and ethical standards. When you decide to purchase life insurance, contact a broker who will shop for the best rates and coverage’s for you. Does life insurance pay upon death? Manulife Financial recently stated between 2007 and 2010 they paid out 99.8 per cent of all life insurance claims. Life insurance should be purchased instead of mortgage insurance or creditor insurance. Protect yourself or someone you love with life insurance.

PUBLIC NOTICE

from both private citizens and land owners of various commercial properties in West Kelowna. In order to move forward with the process, council was asked to decide whether it would rather see a municipal hall built in Westbank Centre or Boucherie Centre during its meeting Tuesday. “Westbank Centre is really the only logical place to focus our discussions in terms of development of a civic centre at this point in time,” said Coun. Duane Ophus. Ophus added the district has moved the municipal hall process along quickly in recent months; however, in the big scheme of things, West Kelowna is just on schedule. “We’ve been here now in this facility just over five years. We made a commitment to the community at the time we came over here that we’d be here for 10 years maximum. It’s really important we move this process along…it’s going to take some time.” Specific properties and locations identified in the market sounding remain confidential. There are both private and public options available. Mayor Doug Findlater noted the site of George Pringle Elementary School was mentioned by a few residents during the market sounding process; however, the school district quickly indicated it plans on using that facility for at least another decade. According to Findlater, the next major challenge for the district will be accumulating the dollars needed to take on such a project. “There is absolutely

Fintry Queen won’t dock in West Kelowna

Wade Paterson

STAFF REPORTER

The iconic Fintry Queen will not be included in development plans for CNR Wharf. The boat’s owner, Andy Schwab, first approached West Kelowna council in February. He suggested the Fintry Queen could be a waterfront destination at the wharf. At the time, he explained his goal was to eventually have the Fintry Queen sailing to and from six or seven different locations along Okanagan Lake, bringing passengers to various tourist hot spots throughout the valley. Until that demand is established, he said the vessel could operate as a dockside restaurant, offering cruises in the evening. Mechanically, the ship is brand new, he added. More than $800,000

was spent between 2005 and 2008 to bring all elements of the vessel up to proper Transport Canada codes and requirements. District staff identified several challenges related to Schwab’s request, including a general inconsistency with the vision and objectives set out in the recently adopted CNR Wharf Park Plan. There would also be a need to amend two existing tenure agreements, as well as the zoning bylaw to permit commercial use at CNR Wharf. Insufficient parking was identified as another issue. “When Mr. Schwab first came to council, I just didn’t see how his goals (would be) able to mesh with our community’s vision for what we want down in that area,” said Coun. Gord Milsom. “We just need to say ‘no’ and continue with the plans we already have in

place.” Mayor Doug Findlater said the inclusion of the Fintry Queen within the scope of the CNR Wharf Park Plan “clearly doesn’t fit” with West Kelowna’s vision for Gellatly Bay. “Some will say there’s an economic benefit, but I’m puzzled by that. We would need other businesses adjacent to it down there…it’s some distance (from) Westbank Centre,” said Findlater. “It’s nice, it’s pretty, but I just don’t see where there is any benefit. “There’s a lot of cost in it for the District of West Kelowna; it will potentially take away from what we want to do down there.” Council unanimously voted not to include the Fintry Queen within the scope of the CNR Wharf Park Plan. wpaterson@kelownacapnews.com Twitter: @PatersonWade

ALISTAIR WATERS/CAPITAL NEWS

THE FINTRY QUEEN docked at its former berth at the foot of Bernard Avenue in Kelowna. The boat is not

welcome at the new commercial dock being built at the foot of Queensway and has been forced to move into Sutherland Bay while a new home is sought. West Kelowna council has now rejected allowing it to dock at the wharf in Gellatly Bay.

Local fishing derbies attract anglers both young and old

Judie Steeves

STAFF REPORTER

Sunny skies were accompanied by sunny smiles as more than 200 youngsters showed up at Shannon Lake Regional Park in West Kelowna last Saturday to catch fish during the 15th annual Family Fishing Weekend. More than 75 trout caught during the fishing derby were registered as the anglers competed for prizes gathered by the Peachland Sportsmen’s Association, organizer Al Springer and his team. “Many more fish were released to fight another

day,” said Springer. The winner of the donated Pirate Island Charter fishing trip for salmon on the Fraser River was Brandon Gaucher of West Kelowna. The largest fish of the day was caught by Beata Kro, who reeled in a 15 7/16-inch rainbow trout. Beau Drover won in the largest bass category. “It was a great day with fish being caught all day for everyone who was able to come out and enjoy the outdoors,” Springer added. He noted that the opportunity for youngsters to learn to fish at

Shannon Lake for the past six weeks is thanks not only to the PSA members, but also to the Freshwater Fisheries Society, whichsupplied the fish and the net to create a small area in a bay of Shannon Lake where youngsters have a good chance of catching a fish—perhaps their first. As well, regional district staff have come out on Sundays to help provide some guidance for youngsters who haven’t fished before, while PSA volunteers attended Saturdays to provide gear and instruction. At Saturday’s derby, Save On Foods supplied

food for the lunch, which was provided for all who attended. A similar number of anglers entered the first Kelowna Fishing Derby on Okanagan Lake the same day, where Danny Coyne took home first prize of $5,000 for his 27 1/4-inch rainbow trout. Second prize went to Steve Wallick for his 26 5/8-inch rainbow, while Leanna Hudecz won $1,000 for her 24 1/2-inch rainbow. Door prizes included a fishing trip and an inflatable kayak, the latter of which was won by T.J. Tuddenham.

Lyman Lure packages were won by Kelly Norman, Dale Johnson, Al Baranow, Ken Un-

ser, Matt Dunn and Randy Romanchuk. A second derby is planned for June 14, 2014.

Mt. Boucherie Secondary School Community Connection June 2013

Final exam: Fire! By: Allison Brown The firefighting academy at MBSS doesn’t conduct a traditional final exam. Each year, students take a bus down to Vernon’s North Okanagan Regional Training Centre for firefighters. The students get the opportunity to battle the beast they have been studying the entire course: fire. On June 7th, seven MBSS firefighters trained by Mr. Rawson, Captain McGuire, and Captain O’rourke, were given the task of putting out a live fire. Small fire pallets were scattered in the building and the students were taught how to properly attack them. While they were in the building, the pallets were lit and the students used the strategy of spraying the roof with the hose to diminish the flames and then washout the floor to eliminate all

flames. In total, the fire lasted about five seconds, but in 700 degrees Fahrenheit and carrying 25 pounds of gear, it was anything but simple. To prepare, students had to drink 10 to 20 litres of water to combat the dehydration one would experience fighting the inferno. When asked how he combatted the smoke, student James Rektor, one of seven fire fighters, shared, “As long as you can control your heart rate by staying calm, breathing wasn’t hard with the air tank.” Rektor also admits, “it was exhilarating and intense,” suggesting that this just may be his future career path. Overall, everything went smoothly and according to plan. Students were grateful for the opportunity to participate in such a realistic aspect of firefighting and hope that the program continues.

Carnival success for local singer, and far-off Kenya! On May 28 at Mount Boucherie Secondary, the school had literally become a zoo of both people and animals. The Me to We Carnival had finally arrived and people flocked from all over West Kelowna to attend. The Carnival raised an incredible $2,642 for water systems in Kenya on behalf of Free the Children. Global Service and Leadership students organized the fair, offering a classic grillstyle concession stand, a petting zoo, carnival games, a cake walk, inflatables such as a bouncy castle, and a silent auction. Also present was the annual colouring contest where elementary school students submitted their drawings for a cupcake and a chance to win other prizes. The highlight for the more mature came later on in the

evening once the Carnival had come to an end; the MTV After Show. Put on by the Global Service Club and hosted by Sydney Renning and Evelyn Mansell, this night was full of local singing talent and a chance to win the opportunity to perform at Westside Daze this summer. The contestants were judged by a variety of MBSS teachers including, Ms. Mackereth, Mr. Mcparland, Ms. Kehler, Mr. Broderick, and Ryan Donn for the city of West Kelowna. Alex Tilley received first place and won a set of four songs at Westside Daze. Ryan Donn, the coordinator for music for youth on the Westside, additionally awarded Jamie Glutek and Ben Klick two songs each because Donn was amazed at the talent. An

audience member described them as, “Sensational. I will be going to Music in the Park just to see them!” Be sure to check them out this summer. Additionally, the Global Village, a café run by students in the school, is contributing $1,400 to equal a grand total of $4,000 being sent to Kenya. The Global Service Club has gained contact with Big Dreamers through Club Penguin and are hoping the money they fundraised will be matched. Grade 11 students Brooklyn Rocco and Clarissa Lester described, “The Carnival was a great way to wrap up the year with local involvement and global change”, and the students can’t wait until next year.

Congratulations to the Graduating Class of 2013!
