Fire claims community hall

Kevin Parnell

STAFF REPORTER

Fire damage to the historic Westbank Lions Community Hall may be less than originally thought, after flames ripped through the walls of the heritage building in a blaze that broke out early Sunday morning. Strategic fire-fighting efforts by the 23 West Kelowna firefighters who responded to the blaze may have been enough to save the heritage building, originally built in 1928 with an addition added in 1980. “Initial reports are the damage is not as bad as it looks from the outside,” said West Kelowna fire chief Wayne Schnitzler. “When you look at the outcome it was a very good job by the fire-fighters in containing the fire damage to the front of the building. It gives the possibility that they may be able to repair what they

have there and get it back in order. That being said, you don’t know what the costs will be to do that.” Schnitzler said most of the damage was limited to the front wall of the building as well as the attic space while there was also smoke and water damage. However, he said the floors and stage of the building were intact, as was much of the computer equipment used by tenants of the building such as the Red Cross and the Boys and Girls Club’s youth centre. As of Monday morning, the cause of the blaze was still under investigation, with West Kelowna Fire and Rescue working with RCMP to determine how the fire started and whether or not it was suspicious. When fire-fighters first arrived on the scene, shortly after the first reports around 8:30 a.m. Sunday morning, they

were confronted with flames visibly shooting out of the aging structure. “It was one of those fires that you can’t take that aggressive of a stance,” said Schnitzler. “We had to make a decision to attack the fire in a certain way. You don’t want to push the fire further into the building.” Crews quickly determined that the fire was located inside the walls and was being fed by sawdust in the walls, material that was commonly used for insulation in construction in the 1920s. “We were dealing with old construction and when you have that you have difficulties,” said Schnitzler. “You have sawdust insulation and areas that are hard to access. We had to open the walls up with chain saws, pull the sheeting down, pull the insulation off and get the sawdust out. The crews did a

ity meets more than anywhere else,” said West Kelowna Mayor Doug Findlater. “There are meeting rooms for smaller groups that meet on a regular basis and the regular tenants of the building. There

already was a shortage of space but this accentuates it. We will see what the Lions want to do but finding community meeting space is a priority.” The hall, which was believed to be heavily booked for the rest of the

year, was to have hosted a wedding reception Sunday afternoon, said Rick Hebner, past president of the Westbank Lions Community Development

Orchard industry loses one of its greatest champions

Steve Kidd

CONTRIBUTOR

Joe Sardinha, the past-president of the B.C. Fruit Growers Association, passed away suddenly on Sunday. Sardinha, simply known as “Joe” to all he met, was a popular leader of the industry organization, outlasting count-

less agricultur ministers during the six years of his presidency, from 2005 to 2011. Sardinha’s untimely death came at age 52, leaving his wife Julie and two grown children. The family has asked for privacy as they recover from this unexpected death. “Joe’s death was totally unexpected. Every-

where I went, people asked how Joe was keeping—out of admiration and respect for Joe,” said current BCFGA president Jeet Dukhia, “He loved his family, farming and the farm community. I speak for all tree fruit growers in saying we are deeply saddened by this news,” Sardinha was the

child of Portuguese immigrants, the second generation to farm in the Okanagan. “It was the land of opportunity. Quite often they would go back to Portugal, marry and bring their wives over and have families here,” said Sardinha, speaking of the wave of Portuguese immigration from the mid-

’50s to early ’60s. “And before you know it they’re orchard owners themselves.” During his term, Sardinha led the BCFGA through a massive restructuring that saw consolidation of the packing houses and an increased focus on quality of the fruit produced in the province. Despite many difficul-

ties—frosts, hail, low fruit prices, rising costs—Sardinha remained unfailingly optimistic, managing to find a silver lining during one year when apples were smaller than ideal. “That only makes it more ideal for children in school lunch and snack programs,” Sardinha said in 2009.

▼ RCMP WARNING

School’s back so slow down Hall Members of the RCMP Central Okanagan Traffic Services division and speed watch volunteers will be out in full force this week as kids head back to school. Mounties are asking drivers to slow down and watch for children who start the new school year today. “Slowing down doesn’t just apply to 8:30 in the morning and 3:30 in the afternoon—children who live near school might go home for lunch, or might be late getting to school, or are going home

early,” said Const. Kris Clark. School buses will also be traveling throughout the community, transporting children to and from school. “A school bus displaying its stop sign and flashing red lights means you must stop until the lights and the signs are deactivated, regardless of which direction you are headed. School buses also tend to be an obvious indicator that children will be nearby,” said Clark. RCMP will be keeping a close eye on drivers

travelling through school zones starting Tuesday; school zone speed limits are 30 km/h between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. on school days. Fines can range from $196 to $253. “We strongly encourage students and their parents to consider walking or cycling to school to reduce traffic congestion around the schools and increase student safety,” said regional traffic safety officer Dave Gibson. “We all want our children to arrive at school and home safely.”

Dangerous bend gets signs Man injured crossing Harvey Ave. The Ministry of Transportation says it will spend $195,000 to try and make an infamous curve on Highway 33 safer. The improvements will be made to the Eight Mile curve on Highway 33, east of Black Mountain. The work, expected to be complete by the end of September, will include installation of 16 new LED chevron signs, an upgrade of the overhead flashing advisory signs

and improvement to the static curve warning signs. By upgrading warnings on the approaches to the Eight Mile Curve, motorists will know in advance that a sharp bend is ahead and will have the time to slow down, says the ministry. The upgrades will help residents and visitors of Kelowna to better navigate this stretch of highway, preventing vehicle crashes and keeping people safe.

The latest accident on the curve involved a semi truck carrying a paving machine that flipped onto its side July 16. It was the second such accident on the curve this year alone, and there have been several other accidents there in recent years. “Adequate warning and clear signage will help to ensure that families and Kelowna residents arrive safely at their destination,” said local MLA Steve Thomson.

pean mussels are not believed to occur in B.C. but could easily be transported here from infested lakes in the United States or the Great Lakes region of Canada. They were introduced to North America in the late 1980s. Currently, there are no mandatory check point stations in B.C., unlike in the western United States, such as Idaho, where you cannot launch a boat unless you have been inspected. So, the Okanagan-based society launched a campaign this summer to educate recreational boaters about the dangers of invasive mussels and what they can do to prevent their spread. “It would only take one boat infested with mussels to enter a lake in B.C. and there would be no turning back,” saidlocal biologist Lisa Scott, who is the co-ordinator of OASISS. “We are trying to encourage everyone to take responsibility to help prevent invasive mussels from entering our waters,” Zebra and quagga mussels are thumbnail sized, freshwater mollusks that rapidly colonize hard surfaces and can clog water-intake structures, impact recreation and

Lisa Scott devastate local fisheries. In the Okanagan-Similkameen, the effects of their invasion would be felt at the commercial activity level, throughout the tourism sector and at the ecological level. Direct costs and lost revenues are estimated to be in excess of $45 million per year if mussels were to invade Okanagan Lake. The society has partnered with local yacht clubs, marinas and other organizations to set up monitoring stations near boat launches in Osoyoos, Skaha, Okanagan and Kalamalka Lakes. The vertical stations consist of a series of small sections of PVC pipe and mesh attached to a rope, and are deployed in depths of up to eight metres. These stations provide an artificial surface for the

invasive mussels to attach to. A sensor is also attached to the apparatus to record temperature and light. Members of OASISS and partner organizations will monitor the surfaces monthly until late September, when it will be removed for the winter. The process will start all over again next May. “We are highly optimistic that we won’t find anything, however it’s important we monitor to be sure the mussels have not arrived,” said Scott. The aquatic invaders program is financially supported through the Canada Summer Jobs program and a $30,000 grant from the Okanagan Basin Water Board. “We are pleased to provide funds to OASISS for this very important project,” stated Anna Warwick Sears, the water board’s executive director. “It’s been complementary to our Don’t Move a Mussel campaign, which is aimed at educating Okanagan residents and visitors to the risks these invasive mussels present.” For more information on European mussels and other invasive species, go to www.oasiss.ca.

Treating nerve damage with acupuncture

eripheral neuropathy refers to damage to the nerves of the peripheral nervous system. A common symptom is numbness and pain in the hands and feet, often described as a tingling or burning sensation and a lack of feeling similar to wearing a thin stocking or glove. Peripheral neuropathy can affect many different nerves, from sensory nerves that register heat, pain or touch, to motor nerves that control how your muscles move, or autonomic nerves that control blood pressure, heart rate, digestion and bladder function. Specific symptoms vary from person to person, depending on the types of nerves affected. There may be gradual onset of numbness and tingling in the feet or

BLACK PRESS

ICBC has applied for a 4.9 per cent rate increase to its basic vehicle insurance rates to take effect Nov. 1. For an average driver who now pays $1,369 a year for basic insurance, the increase would add an extra $36. In its rate application to the B.C. Utilities Commission, ICBC is also seeking four per cent decrease in optional coverage that would reduce that annual bill by $25. The last rate increase was 11 per cent in 2012, coupled with a six per cent cut in optional insurance where ICBC competes with private insurers. In an open letter to customers, Mark Blucher, interim CEO of ICBC, says the increase is needed to keep up with increasing bodily injury claims, with higher payouts as more people turn to lawyers to dispute insurance payouts. Blucher said injury claims are up in part because of crashes involving drivers distracted by smart phones.

James Kaufman hands which may spread upward into the legs and arms, burning pain, a sharp or electrical pain, extreme sensitivity to touch, lack of coordination, muscle weakness or paralysis if motor nerves are affected, and bowel or bladder problems if autonomic nerves are affected. Peripheral neuropathy can result from traumatic injuries, infections, vitamin deficiencies, autoimmune diseases, metabolic problems and exposure to toxins. One of the most common causes

is diabetes. Treatment in western medicine depends on the cause. In many cases, peripheral neuropathy symptoms improve with time when the underlying condition that is causing it gets treated. In order to manage the painful symptoms, a number of medications are often used. According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, pain and dysfunction as a result of peripheral neuropathy are caused by a blockage of qi-energy and blood. If qi-energy and blood don’t flow properly, it prevents cells and tissues from receiving nourishment and can lead to pain and functional problems. In addition, depending on the symptoms experienced, there may be

specific meridians that are also affected by the condition. This can affect where the pain and numbness are occurring, and can also be responsible for accompanying symptoms. Acupuncture treatment typically will involve both local points to treat the meridians affected and the symptoms experienced, combined with points for strengthening and building up the body to augment qi-energy and blood. In this way, acupuncture can help to relieve many of the symptoms experienced, as well as help to strengthen the body and improve health to improve the functioning of the nerves and the body as a whole. Acupuncture shows promising results for those suffering from per-

ipheral neuropathy. Studies have demonstrated that acupuncture may help to improve nerve conduction, and the World Health Organization recognizes acupuncture as a useful therapy for neurological symptoms like peripheral neuropathy. An individual may not recover immediately or completely through acupuncture, but treatment can make a difference in the symptoms experienced and one’s comfort level. With time, treatments may have a lasting positive impact on peripheral neuropathy and quality of life.

Make Water Work winners named This summer, more than 800 Okanagan residents pledged to Make Water Work—committing to water conservation, and entering a contest for $5,000 in WaterWise yard upgrades. Lynda and Don Grant of Peachland got the call last week that they had won. “I’m just thrilled,” said Lynda Grant, noting that

their home irrigation system is 22 years old and in need of fixing. “Conserving water is becoming more and more important and I know we could be doing more.” Grant said the irrigation upgrade is top priority, but after that, she wants to put some of the winnings into some drought-resistant plants. “I love being outside

in my yard, so any help I can get will be great.” Make Water Work is an initiative of the Okanagan Basin Water Board, its Okanagan WaterWise program and local government and utility partners in the Okanagan Valley This is the second year for the valley-wide campaign, aimed at tackling high residential water use

Personal finance: Death and taxes and what has to be done

he easiest way for surviving family members to wind up your affairs is if you have a will in place. The will should name the legal representative who will be the executor. If there is no will, then the court will appoint an administrator as the legal representative. The legal representative can charge a fee to the estate to be compensated for the time taken to wind up the affairs of the deceased. The executor can be held personally liable for any outstanding taxes owing by the deceased’s estate. No one likes to prepare for their own death, but if you prepare a detailed will, then there will be a better chance that your beneficiaries will receive what you intended them to receive from your estate. Many people just have a basic will whereby when one spouse dies, then the other spouse in-

BEHIND THE COUNTER

Gabriele Banka herits the estate and then when both spouses die, the children inherit the estate. When one spouse dies, the remaining spouse can do with the estate what he or she desires. If both spouses pass and the will indicates the estate is to be divided among the children in equal amounts and one child is the executor... well you can imagine the problems that this might cause. The responsibility and care of a disabled child should be spelled out in a will. Divorce and exspouses of beneficiaries can also cause problems

with respect to assets pledged in a will. Probate is the process of getting the court to rule that a will is legally valid. If the person dies with assets worth more than $25,000, such as land, house or investments, the will is usually required to go through probate. There are fees for the process depending on the value of the assets in the estate. As a legal representative, your responsibilities under the Income Tax Act are to file all the required returns for the deceased, and make sure that all taxes owing are paid. You need to inform the beneficiaries if any of the amounts that they will receive from the estate are taxable. The first order of business is to let CRA know that the person has deceased. When this happens CRA will remove all representatives from the deceased’s account

and will stop all automatic payments such as the OAS. At this time the representative needs to provide to CRA a copy of the death certificate, the SIN of the deceased, copy of the will or other legal document such as grant of probate or letter of administration indicating who the legal representative is. There are three kinds of personal returns that can be filed for a deceased person upon death which are the final return, the rights and things return and a business return. In addition you may be required to file a T3 return for the testamentary trust annually if the assets have not been immediately distributed. Under the income tax act, the deceased is deemed to have disposed of all capital property at death. If the assets cannot be distributed on the day of death, they roll over

into testamentary trust. This trust requires the filing of an annual tax return called a T3. Then when the assets are finally distributed, then the testamentary trust is closed. Currently, a testamentary trust is treated like an individual and attracts the same graduated tax rates as an individual, so there

can be some significant tax savings with the proper estate planning. Finance Canada is looking at changing the taxation of trusts in the near future. Finally after all the returns have been filed and you have received the assessment notices from CRA, and before any property is distributed,

the legal representative should request a Clearance Certificate from CRA. You will need a clearance certificate for the personal returns filed and a separate certificate for any testamentary trust returns filed. Gabriele Banka is a CGA and the owner of Banka & Company.

Crack down on driving and calling

t’s another sign that the message from police that it’s illegal to use a cell phone while driving is not getting through. ICBC is seeking approval to hike automobile insurance rates by 4.9 per cent and, according to its interim CEO, part of the reason is an increase in accidents caused by drivers who won’t get off the phone. In an open letter to customers, Mark Blucher said injury claims are up for the insurance company in part because of

drivers, distracted by their use of smart phones, getting into more accidents that are causing bodily injuries. Victims of those injuries are suing and turning to lawyers to get them bigger settlements. It’s not hard to spot drivers who still insist on using their phones while driving. Many brazenly hold the phones to their ears in one hand, while steering with the other. Even more dangerous, some still insist on texting while driving—an excise that not only

takes a driver’s concentration away from the task that should be paramount for them, it also often takes away their vision as that is directed to the small screen of their phone. In a bid to hide their texting, some drivers will even keep their phones in their lap, meaning they have to look away from the road to write their messages. It’s no wonder the number of accidents where distraction is a cause is growing. So now the thoughtlessness of drivers who insist on stay-

ing connected while driving is not only costing us lives on the road, it is also costing those of us who survive, in the pocketbook. No phone call, no matter how urgent the caller or receiver thinks it is, is actually more important than a person’s life. It’s time to get tough with drivers who won’t put down their cell phones when behind the wheel. Police need to crack down on calling and driving just as they do for drinking and driving.

More funding required for health care’s orphan

n more than one previous column I have talked about mental health as the “orphan of health care.” Due to stigma, lack of awareness and lack of public outcry, this area of medicine is often left in the shadows in terms of facilities, resources and attention. A new study published out of Britain notes that health systems are in danger of being overwhelmed by the costs of mental illness if research investment is not boosted soon.

Mental illness, inHEALING MINDS cluding dementia, de-

pression, anxiety and addiction, affect roughly a third of adults in a given year and that number is on the rise Paul due to our aging popuLatimer lation. According to a Cambridge University researcher and president of the British Association of Psychopharmacolgy, no group of chronic illnesses costs the world more than brain disorders. This study showed that in 2010 there were 45 million diagnoses of

brain disorders in Britain. Of those, more than eight million were anxiety disorders and four million were mood disorders such as depression or bipolar disorder. It also showed that annually, the five most costly diseases in Britain were dementia, psychotic disorders, mood disorders, addiction and anxiety disorders. In spite of its incredible cost and wide-reaching effects, mental illness does not attract the same kind of attention or funding as other high profile diseases. We cannot afford to leave all the mental health research up to the phar-

p c

maceutical companies. As businesses, they follow profits. If an area is not sufficiently lucrative, they will shift their focus elsewhere. Government research funds and charity foundations should be doling out money in accordance with the burden a particular disease or group of diseases puts on the population. In the case of mental illness, it receives a fraction of the funding as other high profile diseases such as cancer or heart disease, yet it has just as great an impact on our society. This has to change if we are going to move forward. Although I am hopeful that aware-

ness surrounding mental illness is slowly getting better, we need to do more now to encourage our policies and activism to catch on to the true scope of mental illness. When we do this, we will have a better hope of making real progress in finding new, effective treatments and preventive tools for these conditions.

A Gift in Memory Makes a Difference

▼ QUESTIONABLE PRIORITIES

Public toilets take precedence over health care and unless you are in critical need of an MRI, you’re on the one- to twoyear waiting list to have an MRI. Our city council re-

cently gave the go-ahead to have an $800,000 public toilet built in City Park that is only needed in the short summer months. New MRI machines

cost between $150,000 to $500,000 for the high-end models. It seems to me that we could have had two new MRI machines that KGH

desperately needs rather than a WC for $800,000.

Tourism centre needed, but it must not consume rare public park space here on the Abbott Street lake front, the mayor surprised many with an after-midnight closing comment referencing nearby Kinsmen Park, and stating that perhaps we already have too much park in that area. This probably explains where the idea of locating the tourist centre in City Park originated. To achieve that goal, it also makes sense to start with a ridiculous size to shock the public, then

scale it back as a means of demonstrating that the people’s voices were heard. Classic political strategy. Judging from council’s subsequent comments regarding the centre’s size, it appears we will continue spending money to plan for a tourism centre in City Park. The location at the corner of Harvey and Pandosy, where a Mc-

Donalds restaurant once was, is an example of something more ideal. It could also serve to beautify the entrance to our city with the creative incorporation of a few fruit trees and grape vines that define our region. The hurdles of land acquisition and traffic flow are challenging but feasible if city staff are instructed to aggressively find a solution. Finally, the concept of

swapping City Park’s existing square parking lot with a loop road and angle parking is excellent. It would be especially beneficial during off seasons to give residents the ability to further enjoy downtown with perhaps a brown bag lunch or an evening parked to take in the scenic lake view with your sweetie.

‘Banksters’ control ‘subservient puppet governments’ To the editor: I’ll try to keep this short and bittersweet. I shook my head in disgust when I saw the cartoon in Thursday’s [Aug. 29] edition of the Capital News on page A10. This propaganda controlled cartoonist [Rodenwalt] has got his idea on how the world is run all wrong. His cartoon shows a caricature of Syria’s, King Assad looking up at a large boot (depicting world justice) that is ready to stomp on him. Wrong. Very wrong. The cartoon should be altered slightly.

To the editor: When is a park not a park? When it’s a tourist centre.

Or maybe an eagle holding a decapitated head of a baby Islamic terrorist in the talons of one foot and a military drone in the other and on the chest of the eagle should be a large gold dollar sign. This is how I see the world run, Mr. Rodenwalt. The elite families/ banksters who control the money and own 99 per cent of the world’s wealth finance and own the multi-national corporations which control their subservient puppet governments who order the invasions and assaults and genocides and remote killings with their military complex on poor, weak non-compliant nations for strictly one reason only— more power and more

wealth and more control of the world, and its people, and its resources for the elite families/banksters.

Baillie a reliable commodity for Rockets ‘‘

Warren Henderson STAFF REPORTER

Tyson Baillie is living proof that youth and experience can indeed come in the same package. Ten weeks shy of his 18th birthday, the 5-foot10 centre is relatively young by Western Hockey League standards. But with two full seasons of major junior savvy already under his belt, Baillie has evolved into a reliable commodity for the Kelowna Rockets. After connecting for 26 goals and 56 points during a solid 2012-13 regular season, Baillie lifted his game another notch during last spring’s post-season. Without injured captain Colton Sissons in the lineup, he stepped to the fore for the Rockets with a team-leading eight goals and 14 points in nine games. Baillie plans to pick up where he left off last season. “I want to be a goto guy for our team this year,” said Baillie. “When Siss went down for the

playoffs, I had to step up my game and I thought I showed I could do that. I want to be a leader, too… I’ve been here two years now, so I feel like I’m part of the leadership core of our team.” While Baillie’s skill and hockey smarts have been vital to his success, head coach Ryan Huska says the young centre’s biggest asset my be his pure passion for the game. After sitting out several games last season as a healthy scratch, it became clear Baillie was willing to do whatever it took to get back on the ice. “He loves the game, he’s always working hard, and his passion and enthusiasm rubs off on the

‘Change of scenery’ for Watkins CONTRIBUTED

WEST KELOWNA’S Danny Watkins was cut this week by the Philadephia Eagles.

other guys,” said Huska. “So last year, when he was a healthy scratch it was really tough on him. He changed his style, became a far better two-way player and turned into a guy we could trust and rely on. The adversity was the best thing that happened to him and he’s been in the lineup ever since.” While the Rockets will need offensive production from Baillie this season, Huska said the club won’t be putting undue pressure on him or any one player because, like last year, the club’s success will hinge on more of a scoring-by-committee approach. And that’s just fine with Baillie who be-

lieves—based on the club’s depth, experience and last spring’s playoff disappointment—the Rockets have the necessary tools to take a run at a championship next spring. “I think we can win it all this year,” Baillie said. “We have a lot of returning guys and guys that want to improve and do better than last year. A lot of guys are disappointed about the playoffs last year and I think we have a really good team here that can go all the way.”

Just prior to the start of what would have been his third NFL season, Danny Watkins is looking for a job. The 6-foot-3, 310-pound West Kelowna native was cut Saturday by the Philadelphia Eagles. Watkins, who never played football until the age of 22, was selected

23rd overall by the Eagles in the first round of the 2011 NFL draft. He started at right guard in 18 games over two seasons for the Eagles, before losing his job early in 2012. After missing most of training camp in his rookie season due to a player lockout, adjusting to the NFL game proved to be

too steep a learning curve for Watkins. “A change of scenery was necessary for him,” general manager Howie Roseman said. “The pressure of being a first-round pick in Philadelphia, how he internalized that, the way for him to get his career back on track is to go to a new place and both I and (Eagles coach) Chip

(Kelly) told him that (Saturday).” Watkins’ CFL rights are owned by the B.C. Lions who selected him fourth overall in the 2011 draft. The Mt. Boucherie grad attended training camp with the Okanagan Sun in 2006 but an injury prevented him from playing in any games in the

B.C. Football Conference. He later went on to play two seasons at Butte College in California where he was enrolled in the Fire Academy program. Watkins then starred two seasons at Baylor University in Waco, Texas where he gained attention as one of the country’s top offensive lineman.

SHAWN BAENZIGER/CONTRIBUTOR

KELOWNA’S Cindy Rhodes, one of B.C.’s top age group runners, will compete in the Peak to Beak on Sept. 22.

Rhodes prepares for Peak to Beak run You’d be hard pressed to find many competitive runners with a more impressive résumé than

Cindy Rhodes. Six times the overall winner at the Victoria Marathon, the Kelowna

woman is also the current B.C. age group record holder in the 55-59 category in the 5k, 8k and the half marathon. “Running just makes me feel good” said Rhodes. “I also love to go horseback riding and used to bike, but too many things are hard on my body. I need more downtime the older I get.” On Sept. 22, Rhodes looks to defend her title at the Peak to Beak Run from Knox Mountain to Quails’ Gate. In 2012, Rhodes completed the 18 k race in 1:18:34, 32 seconds ahead of fellow Kelowna runner Stacey Carrigan. “This was a great race last year,” Rhodes said. “There was a young woman and she was close, she pushed me.” For many runners the Peak to Beak is a demanding race. Rhodes says proper pacing is the key to a good run. “If you go too fast down the hill you pay for it later on, and you don’t have the resources to run the hills. Get into the rhythm as it evens out.” Until Sept. 17, wellknown Kelowna runner Trevor Haaheim, is busy preparing interested runners every Wednesday

Last year the Peak to Beak race had s98 finishers, 47 of them women. “I would hope othat half of them are women….in this case -there was just under half, so hopefully this year dwomen will represent rhalf of the participants,” Rhodes added. “More women take on the challenge. I think that running gis appealing to many be,cause it can be measured and runners can set goals. eI also feel very strong-ly about getting the youth sinvolved.

BRIEFS MINI EATERY

The latest project from award-winning local chef Rod Butters and Audrey Surrao of RauDZ Regional Table reataurant in Kelowna is now under construction. The new micro bar • bites in downtown Kelowna will be just 900-square-feet. Butters jokes that the space is so small, “we don’t even capitalize the “m” of micro.” The compact space is designed around a unique wooden bar being built by local craftsman Will Brundula. Constructed from three species of reclaimed wood, the end cuts will be put together like a jig saw puzzle to create a one-of-a-kind surface that will anchor the space. Brundula also built the trestle community table, front door and bar top at RauDZ Regional Table. Over the bar will hang a 20-foot wooden chandelier, complete with dozens of suspended antique-style caged lights. This space has been designed by internationally acclaimed architect Timothy Bullinger from Arca3 Design Studio in Vancouver. Known for his unique and meticulous work and love of lighting, Bullinger has designed homes for stars like Phil Collins, Vidal Sassoon and Georges Marciano, as well as the Vancouver restaurant Miku. The creatively simple approach of micro bar • bites will include a pared down bar and food menu, and the launch of barrel-aged cocktails, with international beers and wines micro bar • bites is slated to open in the fall.

The importance of planning for entrepreneurs

oday I want to share some insight into the importance of effectively planning for that exciting adventure in your life — starting your first entrepreneurial journey. Guess what? You get to be in charge of your own destiny. Every day is different with new opportunities for you to explore. And, as you begin your journey, there are some key points that you need to consider and act upon to get you along your road. Take a few moments to look at each one listed in this column and seek what each one may mean to you, and how they may help turn your dreams into your entrepreneurial reality. First of all, step back and identify if you have become passionate about your new venture. Simply put, if you have chosen to move forward with a business idea that ignites your fire within then congratulations you are on the way. An important question that both aspiring and existing entrepreneurs should ask themselves early in the planning process is whether they should prepare a formal business plan.

ENTREPRENEURIAL SPIRIT

Joel Young There are a number of reasons to develop a business plan. First, a thoroughly prepared plan may provide the necessary direction by encouraging you to evaluatewhere they want to take the new venture, and define what you want to receive from its implementation. Second, a business plan provides a structure—a road map as I like to call it—to an entrepreneur’s thinking process by making certain they have considered the most important determinants for their new venture’s future success. Thirdly, it may help you think about the future. For instance, a business plan can assist in developing a response to any competition they may be facing in their perceived marketplace. Finally, a business plan will aid the communication of the essentials of the venture, not only to financiers but also

to potential employees, sup- ing your products and servipliers, customers your family ces and analyzing your marand loved ones. kets—will help you anticipate Let’s face it, a carefully problems and opportunities crafted business plan can be and see you through the rough used to elicit the reactions and and joyful times that lie recommendaahead.” tions of others to To this aid and inspire very day, you to greatness there realong your path mains this BUSINESS So having a strong asserbusiness plan is tion withPLANNING IS A one of the most in the world WORTHWHILE important things of entrepreACTIVITY AND AN you will do in neurship and IMPORTANT PART the entrepresmall busineurial world. ness.

tending a workshop may be the right answer through the resources available here in the Okanagan from the province or the federal government. Community Futures, Accelerate Okanagan, the Women’s Enterprise Centre and our own Okanagan Entrepreneurs Society and many of our educational institutions will be able to assist you in this regard. Also, check in with the educational co-ordinators of your communities as they will have the contact information for such training resources. Most chartered banks have documentation regarding business plans to share as have many chambers of commerce. So, get to it, budding Okanagan entrepreneurs. Banks, investors, customers, community and your family will love you to pieces when you present a work of art business plan that presents your fire within.

SENIORS ▼ ELDER CARE

Care giving transitions and life completion T hey say it takes a village to raise a child. I believe the same holds true when supporting an elder as independence is redefined in a way that is empowering and maintains a sense of freedom, choice, belonging and validation in their lives. A team of supporters is necessary to form a circle of loving care around the elder as advancing age brings certain physical and mental challenges into play. These supporters may be neighbours and friends, family members, professional caregivers, advocates and volunteers. What each person brings to the team and whether the collaboration is positive or negative is influenced by the openness, trust and disclosure, support and respect that

SENIORS’ CONCERNS

Marjorie Horne connects the elder to this network and each person in the circle to each other. Having now brought my own 91-year-old mom to live with me, I am amazed at the unexpected gifts I am receiving. Unsure of how my husband and I would adjust to this sudden transition, we are gathering a circle of care team around us, connected by the love and respect that we each share for my mom. Every day I get to see firsthand how unconditional love and caring

attention is transformational as Mom begins to feel safe and able to let go of her former resistance to what we were defining as support. Seeing my mom happy, relaxed and joyously connected to having her “team” around her daily, warms one’s heart in a way that can only be described as a miracle. Truly honouring and integrating our elders into our lives raises our own fears of the aging process and sometimes even causes us to ignore them, protecting ourselves from facing some of the realities that living into our 80s and 90s entails. Erik Erickson described eight stages of development that he believed we must pass through over the entire life cycle. The eighth stage, ex-

tending from the age of 65 to death, he defined as “integrity vs. despair.” This time of life is when we engage in a life review and consider the worth of our experiences.

‘‘

WHAT IS OUR ROLE WHEN WE BECOME CAREGIVERS OF OUR PARENTS?

Some look back with a sense of integrity or fulfillment on the choices they have made and the contributions they have offered that leads them to wisdom. Others may have a feeling of despair during this stage, as they struggle to find a purpose to their lives, focusing on regret for the life they have lived and the decisions they have made. It can determine

whether they move peacefully towards death or fear death, resisting the love around them, fighting to the end. What is our role when we become caregivers of our parents? We can help them ease through this stage to a sense of peace and acknowledgement of the gifts they have contributed to us and to others. In this life completion process, it seems apparent to me that each person who has joined the circle of care team, are receiving their own individual gifts from the experience to support their own growth. I sit in the evening now on the edge of my mom’s bed and listen to her telling me the stories of her life, many which relate to what she perceives as bad choices and regrets. Erickson’s description of the eighth stage of life reminds me to listen attentively and to also share with her the stories of how her creative and

loving way helped all four of her daughters become caring adults and innovative thinkers. Each member of the team is doing the same in their own way. Mom’s eyes light up and she smiles gently, taking in our remembrances of what she has given in her lifetime. I see and feel her coming to a greater peace and acceptance of some of the difficulties she has experienced on her life journey. At the same time, having her with me daily, I am beginning to know that this stage of life which I will be entering all too quickly, holds the incredible possibilities of wisdom and acceptance. Mom just taught me another great lesson and as always, I get to pay it forward.

Free workshops to help deal with dementia

Families and caregivers of people with dementia experience grief and loss at many different points during the progression of the disease. Helping them cope with that journey is the purpose of a pair of free workshops coming to Kelowna in September, offered by the non-profit Alzheimer Society of B.C. The first, Grief and Loss, will explain how those emotions can impact caregivers, as well as the person with dementia, said Carly Gronlund, the society’s support and education coordinator for Kelowna and the North and Central Okanagan. The workshop is designed for family caregivers, and will also explore strategies for coping with and adjusting to changes brought on by the disease. It runs from 2 to 4 p.m. on Sept. 7. The second workshop, Getting to Know Dementia, runs on Sept. 7 from 10 a.m. to noon. “Participants will receive basic information on dementia and the impact it has on the individual, their care partners and their support network,” said Gronlund. The workshop provides an opportunity to learn about the diagnosis, different programs and services available in the community, the importance of planning for the future and strategies for living well. Care partners and family members of people with dementia are invited to attend. Both workshops will take place at Kelowna Regional Library, 1380 Ellis St. Seats are limited so early registration is required, by contacting Gronlund at 250-8600305 or cgronlund@alzheimerbc.org. More information about Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias, as well as resources for those living with their impact, is available by visiting www.alzheimerbc. org.

CUISINE from Jude’s kitchen local blue grapes North African cuisine is a fascinating blend of exotic spices from the many different cultures that surround this region. Coronation grapes are the special blue table grapes developed here in the Okanagan, at the Pacific Agri-food Research Centre in Summerland. They are only available fresh for a few weeks each fall, right about now. They have a complex flavour that is unmatched. I’ve never tasted anything like them, and they’re delicious in main dishes or in loaves or muffins, as well as other desserts like clafouti. I tried these two recipes from the B.C. Grape Growers’ website, using Coronation grapes and we quite enjoyed both dishes. I hope you do too. Coronation table grapes are grown by farmers around the Okanagan; farmers who also provide us with a wide variety of other fruits, vegetables, meats, cheeses and who take care of that wonderful, ever-changing vista of green farmland that’s intermixed with the asphalt and concrete that makes up our community. Farmers Appreciation Week is Sept. 8 to 15, so give a little extra thought to where the food you purchase has been grown, and, wherever possible, make sure it’s as local as possible—garlic from the Okanagan, not China, for instance. If you can’t find the local produce you need, pick it up at the nearest farmer’s market, or at the farm gate. Ads for local produce are in the classified section of this paper every issue. You can even enter a contest to win a $50 gift certificate at the farmers market by creating a poem about farming called Ode to a Farmer Poetry Contest. Go to www.bcfarmersmarket.org and click on poetry contest, before Sept. 8. For lots more locally-inspired recipes for food that’s in season, pick up a copy of my book, Jude’s Kitchen, wherever books are sold.

Coronation Grape Moroccan Couscous There’s lots of flavour in this side dish, which is an excellent companion to the Moroccan chicken. 14 oz. (414 ml) chicken stock 2 tbsp. (30 ml) butter 1/2 tsp. (2 ml) ground allspice 1/2 tsp. (2 ml) ground coriander 1/2 tsp. (2 ml) ground cumin juice of one lemon 2 c. (500 ml) couscous 1/2 small red onion 1/2 small red pepper 1/2 small green pepper 1/2 c. (125 ml) fresh mint 1/4 c. (60 ml) fresh cilantro 2/3 c. (150 ml) macadamias or cashews 1 1/2 c. (375 ml) Coronation grapes

Combine the chicken stock with melted butter, spices and lemon juice in a pot and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat and add the couscous. Stir well, cover and let it sit for five minutes. Fluff with a fork to separate the grains. Meanwhile, finely chop the onion, peppers and herbs; coarsely chop the nuts and slice the grapes in half. When the couscous is cooked, stir in the vegetables, herbs, nuts and grapes, then turn out into a serving dish. Garnish with a few leaves of the fresh herbs. Serves 6 to 8.

This is full of spicy, exotic flavours and is a simple dish to make, despite the daunting list of ingredients, so don’t let that discourage you. This is spicy but not hot. You can make it hotter by increasing the amount of chilies.

HARISSA MARINADE:

1 tsp. (5 ml) ground cumin 1 tsp. (5 ml) ground coriander 1 tsp. (5 ml) cinnamon 1 tsp. (5 ml) caraway seed 2 small red chilies 4 garlic cloves 1/2 c. (125 ml) olive oil 2 tbsp. (30 ml) lemon juice 2 tbsp. (30 ml) fresh mint 2 tbsp. (30 ml) fresh cilantro 1 tsp. (5 ml) salt 1/2 tsp. (3 ml) pepper 2 large boneless chicken breasts 6 boneless chicken thighs

2 c. (500 ml) Coronation grapes 1/2 c. (125 ml) dry white wine 1/4 c. (60 ml) brown sugar

To make the Harissa Marinade, mince the chilies (or substitute 2 tsp. (10 ml) chili paste) and garlic and chop the fresh herbs. Use a small food processor to combine all the marinade ingredients until smooth. Chop the boneless, skinless chicken parts into one-inch cubes and dump into a glass bowl or an ovenproof casserole dish that has a lid. Rinse the grapes and remove them from their bunches, dry them and add to the chicken, along with the wine and brown sugar and the Harissa Marinade. Mix it all together, cover and refrigerate overnight or for a least six hours before cooking. Pre-heat oven to 350 F. Bake chicken in the marinade, covered, for about 45 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through. Garnish with a few fresh herb leaves. Serves 6-8.
