Airport foot traffic growth still climbing
Foerster faces more charges
Alistair Waters
Kathy Michaels
ASSISTANT EDITOR
STAFF REPORTER
Success, it would seem, is coming early for Kelowna International Airport. The airport’s drive to 1.6 million passengers per year is a full 12 months ahead of schedule thanks to 15 straight months of record-breaking growth. As was the case every month in 2013, YLW has set records for growth in the first three months of this year, including a surprising six per cent jump in January followed by an even more surprising eight per cent increase in February. Last month, YLW was 8,000 passengers ahead of the number it handled in March 2013. “We were really surprised,” said airport marketing and media relations co-ordinator Jenelle Hynes. “When I saw the numbers for January, I said we should go back and check again.” She said she was even more surprised when February’s numbers came in even stronger. “That is huge growth.” She said January saw an increase over the same month last year of 7,600 passengers while February saw an jump of 10,655 passengers. Its overall 4.11 per cent growth in 2013 was amongst the highest for any Canadian airport handling more than one million passengers and well ahead of much larger airports, such as Vancouver International and Montreal’s Pierre Elliott Trudeau International (both at 2.1 per cent), Toronto’s Pearson International (3.4 per cent), Ottawa (-2.3 per cent), Halifax (-0.6 per cent) and Winnipeg (-1.5 per cent). Both Calgary International and Edmonton International had stronger growth last year at five per cent and 4.6 per cent respectively. YLW, which set up a phased, multi-million dollar plan to increase and improve its infrastructure over four years starting in 2011 in anticipation of reaching 1.6 million passengers per year in 2015, is now a year ahead of schedule in terms of passenger numbers. Hynes said because of the planning, design and construction required for the work, it cannot be speeded up despite the stronger than expected growth.
Matthew Foerster will spend the next 25 years behind bars for murdering Taylor Van Diest, but this community has yet to see the last of the Cherryville man. Lingering allegations will bring Foerster back to Kelowna next month. Crown counsel Iain Currie said two outstanding files remain. On May 5, Foerster will be back in court to schedule a trial. The first charge is in connection with an alleged home invasion in Cherryville on Oct. 19, 2004, and involves a 19-year-old woman. The second relates to an alleged attack at Kelowna’s Garden of Eden escort agency April 12, 2005. As a result of that incident, Foerster is facing one count of sexual assault and unlawful confinement. If “hypothetically” he were convicted of those crimes, Currie said his sentence would be served concurrent to the 25 years he’s now facing. A guilty verdict would not even alter his parole eligibility.

NEWS ▼ FOERSTER MURDALTRIAL
First degree guilty verdict won’t heal family’s pain Kathy Michaels STAFF REPORTER
Taylor Van Diest’s family let out muffled sobs of relief Saturday morning as a jury of 12 convicted Matthew Foerster of first degree murder. The five-woman, seven-man pool of jurors returned to a Kelowna courtroom with the unanimous decision after 24 hours of deliberation. The jury concluded that Foerster, 28, was intending to sexually assault Van Diest, 18, when he fatally injured her on a set of secluded train tracks Halloween night 2011. When Foerster was asked by Justice Peter Rogers if he had anything to say following the jury’s decision, defence lawyer Lisa Helps declined on his behalf. Throughout those final moments Foerster, in a pressed dress shirt and tie, stared ahead in the same manner he spent the entirety of the two-week trial—appearing to be on the brink of some emotional outburst that never materialized. He will now face 25 years in prison without

possibility of parole—the minimum sentence for the crime for which he was convicted. Foerster’s lawyer had claimed her client was remorseful throughout the process, but his silence in that moment told another story to Taylor’s mother. “The fact he chose not to speak, speaks volumes about how cowardly, dysfunctional and deviant this individual really is,” said Marie Van Diest. “He needs to be put away and not have that behaviour exist ever again.” While Saturday’s decision marked the end of the Van Diest’s legal entanglement with Foerster, it’s not going to heal the pain the family has faced since Halloween 2011, when Taylor was murdered on a walk to meet friends for some trick-ortreating. “I think we can try to carry on with life with a different sense of normal. We’re just going to have
No further jail time for any other convictions Charges from A1 It’s something Taylor Van Diest’s mother Marie, sees as a fault in the system. “I am certainly hoping (those victims) will have their justice as well,” Van Diest said. “The maximum is 25 years, so whether this goes forward or not, what justice will they get? He’ll serve no further time.” Van Diest said she’s not heard if the women in those cases will go through the court process, but can imagine that the prospect of reliving Foerster’s actions “would just be too traumatizing.” Also facing legal repercussions from Taylor Van Diest’s mother is Stephen Foerster, Matthew’s father. He’ll be in a Vernon courtroom May 5 for a charge of accessory after the fact to murder.

I don’t think that a person ever heals completely from something like this. There’s never closure because we’ll never have Taylor back. “The silver lining is that “no other girl will meet the same fate (Taylor) did.” “We’re just happy that animal will be off the streets for a long time,” she continued. “Not long enough, for me, but it will suffice.” Taylor’s twin sister Kirstie said she too was relieved by the verdict, adding that “it was the best outcome (they) could get, given the circumstances.” During the two week trial both women, flanked by more than a dozen other family members and friends, endured gruesome witness testimony

A FAMILY photo of Taylor Van Diest. about Van Diest’s final night. A forensic pathologist, the emergency room doctor who treated Van Diest and even those who came across her battered body on the railway track described how the 5-foot4, 126 lb teen had been
brutally beaten and left to inevitably die on a patch of ground near some railway tracks. She had ligature marks across her neck that Crown counsel Iain Currie said were likely caused as Foerster tried to subdue her with a shoe-
lace he’d wrapped around her neck. She also suffered a skull fracture as part of what looked to be one of six blows across the top of her skull. The positioning indicated she was down on the ground when Foerster
swung his Maglite at her head with crushing force. The petite teen had raised her hands to her head to protect herself to little avail. Evidence of Van Diest’s fight for survival is what ultimately convicted Foerster, said Currie in his closing arguments. At some point, despite the significant size difference between her and her attacker, she scratched his neck and collected the DNA that tied him to the scene. No other evidence remained, as Foerster was shrewd enough to remove all other traces of his presence that night. Setting the scene, Van Diest also had written text messages to friends saying that she was being “creeped”—teen speak for being looked at in a sexual and unwanted way, highlighting Foerster’s intent that night. His lawyer, Lisa Jean Helps, had hypothesized that Foerster was just looking for a date, and the fact he was wandering down the secluded pathway holding a flashlight was just a coincidence, not a sign of a killer’s intent. She argued that things went awry when he tried to hit on Van Diest, and upon being spurned, he had a deadly reaction. kmichaels @kelownacapnews.com

Ukraine rally calls for end to Russian invasion Barry Gerding EDITOR
The loss of access to a McDonald’s Big Mac is one of the initial economic sanction losses for the Crimea region of the Ukraine that has been forcibly reclaimed by Russia. The fabled fast food giant has closed its restaurants in the region and relocated its employees to other McDonald’s outlets in the Ukraine and will assist with moving and lodging expenses. The move came as a result of Russia attempting to annex the militarily strategic Crimea region from Ukraine, followed by a referendum reaffirming support among the local population for the move. The announcement of the move by McDonald’s drew cheers from the more than 30 people who gathered on Saturday on the pedestrian overpass adjacent to Parkinson Recreation Centre to rally in support of Ukraine’s sovereignty and independence. Peter Bihun, with the Dolyna Ukrainian Cultural Society, told the crowd that Ukraine’s future as an independent country has been clouded by the presence of 40,000 to 50,000 military personnel on the country’s border with Russia. “Those are battle ready Russian soldiers massed now on Ukraine’s eastern border with Russia,” Bihun said. “This is not a war game. (Russia) is ready for war. NATO has said it would take two to four days for the Russian army to invade across the Ukraine. “Our country would be wiped out. So people are extremely nervous about what will happen next.” Bihun said that when Ukraine gained its independence from Russia in 1991, that country along with Britain and the U.S. signed an agreement to protect Ukraine’s borders in return for the country surrendering its nuclear weapons, amassed there by the former Soviet Union. “They all lied. All of them. Russia has not recognized Ukraine’s borders by its actions, Great Britain is gorging itself on dirty Russian money and the U.S. is very war weary right now,” Bihun said. He said the only pol-

people who attended a rally last Saturday in Kelowna to show support for Ukraine’s independence. itician speaking up aggressively in favour of Ukraine’s independence is Prime Minister Stephen Harper, who Bihun described as “a tiger” on the international scene rallying support for economic sanctions against Russia. Local Conservative MP Ron Cannan also spoke at the rally, telling of Harper’s efforts to speak up for Ukraine through words and actions, citing the PM’s push to exclude Russia from the G8 economic group of nations. “It is now a G7 group, and both Harper and our foreign affairs minister John Baird have traveled to Ukraine in recent
months to reiterate our support for the independence of the Ukraine people,” Cannan said. Cannan described the Russia-Ukraine situation as “fluid and fragile” but said Ottawa is “ready to assist where it is needed in this historic moment.” While Cannan talked about imposing economic sanctions, any need for military support was one subject that wasn’t brought up at the rally. Roman Chez, with the Vernon branch of the Canadian Ukraine Congress, also addressed the rally crowd, saying Russia’s attempt to redraw the Eastern European map is an
assault on the basic principles of state sovereignty and the rule of law. Chez also cited Ukraine’s past history, noting that the former Soviet Union under the leadership of Joseph Stalin imposed the artificial genocide of Ukrainians in 1932 and 1933, which saw the starvation death of some 10 million Ukrainians. “Those people were starved to death by Stalin and their lands given to Russians, whose families still live there today in east and south Ukraine,” Chez said. “Today, many of those who protest against Ukraine and for Russia are related to those families that were originally handed over those lands.” Chez called on the federal government to boycott diplomatic missions to and from Russia, to not allow entertainers from Russia to perform in Canada if they have expressed support for Russian president Vladimir Putin’s actions and to block access of Russian TV channels to Canadian airwaves.

Scotiabank donation will send a message to OC business students Jennifer Smith STAFF REPORTER
Scotiabank demonstrated its corporate social responsibility Monday by making a donation to foster the same kind of mentality in business students for years to come. The bank’s executives were in Kelowna for the financial institution’s annual general meeting and offered up a serious sum—$100,000 over two years—to develop the Scotiabank Centre for Non-Profit Excellence at the Okanagan College School of Business. “Education is one of the pillars of our philan-

where organizations like Kelowna Community Resources, a hub for non-profit support and knowledge in the valley, will turn to find training opportunities and graduates capable of handling the accounting, fund development, public relations and management skills needed to keep a non-profit organization on its feet. Actually experiencing what it’s like to work in a non-profit organization and positively affect change does alter a student’s career choices, fourth year business student Drew Vincent said. His participation in the Enactus program, a non-profit, student-run organization that develops and implements projects in Interior communities to improve the quality of life and standard of living across the region has certainly changed his outlook. “I started seeing there is so much opportunity to
create a job, and be able to work for different organizations, while still being profitable and responsible to shareholders,” said Vincent. Originally aiming to be in marketing, Vincent was in school to secure a marketing diploma and wanted to work for the kind of firm only found in bigger cities before connecting with Enactus. Now on the verge of graduation, he said the mentoring he received from his business school instructors, who pushed him to work with the organization, and the experiences he had doing the work, fostered a desire to stay in the valley and make a difference. “Ideally, I’d love to get a job working for a business that has a social conscience and goes out and creates opportunities for people that maybe are differently-abled or maybe don’t have opportunities currently,” he said.

Kelowna man faces murder charge Kathy Michaels STAFF REPORTER
A Kelowna man was charged last Thursday with the murder of Amy Jane Parkes, marking the end of a citywide manhunt. Kelowna resident Ryan James Quigley was arrested April 3 at about 10 a.m. in spot well known to local police. “Plainclothes officers located the suspect vehicle on the 500 block of Coronation Avenue and Quigley was found to be inside,” said Const. Kris Clark. “He was taken into custody without incident and later faced questioning by police.” Quigley was Parkes’s fiancé, and the two had been having problems, according to friends and neighbours who were witness to fights. Shortly before 10 a.m., April 1, police found Parkes’s body in her residence on the 3700 block of Lakeshore Road after responding to a call that she had failed to show up to work that morning. “The circumstances surrounding her death were deemed to be suspicious and the Kelowna RCMP Serious Crime Unit commenced a homicide investigation,” said Clark. “Quigley was quickly identified to be a person of interest in the case and police requested public assistance in locating him and an associated vehicle.” Quigley remains in custody and is scheduled to appear in court on April 8, 2014. Parkes’s friends and family in her home country of England and locally have been shaken by the loss. “I’m just writing to say how devastated Amy’s friends are in England. She was a lovely caring person,” said Michael Meadowcroft.

Police happy to put gangster behind bars A Kelowna gangster with a lengthy criminal history will be relocated to a prison cell for the next few years. Vincent Lewis Timpany, 42, was sentenced on April 1 to four years in prison, with a mandatory three year minimum sentence after pleading guilty to five of 16 offences, including possession of a restricted firearm for which he was prohibited. Timpany was arrested December 2013, after members of the CFSEU-BC’s Southeast District office executed a search warrant on Timpany’s residence in the 500 block of Yates Road. Of the items in Timpany’s possession were: • 9 mm Glock handgun • .38 calibre Smith and Wesson handgun • 12 gauge shotgun • three over-capacity magazines. “Timpany is a long-time gang associate and allied with members of the Independent Soldiers gang,” said Sgt. Lindsey Houghton, spokesperson for CFSEU-BC. “Timpany has a lengthy criminal record dating back to the early 1990s for property, driving, drug, violence, and firearms-related offenses. At the time of his arrest he was prohibited from possessing guns and ammunition.” Houghton described Timpany’s sentence as a win for law enforcement. “It is important to get offenders, such as Vincent Timpany, off our streets. CFSEU-BC has dedicated itself to reducing threats to public safety, and the successful conclusion of this case only reiterates that the police in British Columbia are making significant headway in eliminating the violence and threat posed by organized crime groups and their associates,” he said.

Harcourt shakes up NDP ranks
M
ike Harcourt was probably too nice a guy to become premier of B.C., especially as the first leader of the NDP to win power after the fondly remembered (by NDPers, at least) Dave Barrett government of 1972-75. Following the end of Barrett’s reign as premier, Harcourt led the party back to power after 16 years in the wilderness. He had earlier served as mayor of Vancouver. He styled himself “Moderate Mike,” a
fairly accurate label, as he tended to try and make as many people happy as possible, and not bash business quite as much as some of his colleagues were prone to do. However, he fell victim to the endless plotting that seems to be an integral part of the NDP’s DNA. Barrett had taken over after Tom Berger failed to win power in 1969, in an election the NDP were sure they could win. Barrett was then knifed by labour allies in his last year in power. Harcourt was under pres-
sure over the Nanaimo Commonwealth Holding Society, an NDP-controlled organization involved in many questionable financial moves. He had nothing to do with it, but the fact that it came out on his watch caused some of his cabinet, notably Moe Sihota, Joan Smallwood and Glen Clark, to go after him. Despite the shoddy way he was treated, he remained a member of the NDP and campaigned frequently for the party. In January, he decided not to
renew his membership, a fact made known earlier this week. Not surprisingly, it received a lot of media attention. Harcourt said the Kinder Morgan flip-flop, attack on Carole James’ leadership and NDP fight against the carbon tax in 2009 caused him to not bother paying his dues this year. Those are reasonable doubts, and his action will cause many within the NDP to ponder just where their party is headed, as it undergoes its second leadership campaign in three years.

talk to the people it serves. And it also using the Web more to advertise what it is doing with their money. Macklem said on average, city events advertised on Facebook were seen by 24,000 people. But, while the ’Net numbers are growing, they still have a way to go to catch up with advertising in traditional media such as newspapers, television and radio. Advertising on social media, however, provides a big bonus for the city—it’s free. In these days of smaller budgets, doing more with less and stretching the taxpayers dollar as far as it can go, the enticement of paying nothing to
get its message out because so many subscribe to Facebook, Twitter or any number of other social networks out there, is hard to resist. And that’s not all. The city,gets an added element— two-way dialogue. The Internet provides the city with a way of hearing back about its message, in many cases immediately. Kelowna has a Web service that lets residents make service requests— like reporting street lights out, potholes in roads and other infrastructure problems. It is growing in popularity because it allows the city to get right on a problem rather than letting it sit. But the Internet is a two-edged sword.
If an individual or group doesn’t like what the city is doing, it’s not hard to turn the tables and launch a campaign of complaint. Local chat rooms, forums and discussion boards are full of public comment about city issues—good and bad—and it’s in the city’s best interest to monitor what is being said about it. It can use the same electronic public soapbox to then reach out to those affected and present its side of the story. The Internet is obviously a platform that’s here to stay. But like any user, Kelowna City Hall needs to be careful how it uses that platform. Alistair Waters is the assistant editor of the Capital News.

Guide-outfitters get permits for southern B.C. Open letter Steve Thomson, BC Minister of Forest Lands Natural Resource Operations:
The BC Wildlife Federation recently became aware of multiple 70(1) b permits issued in Regions 4 (Kootenay), 5 (Cariboo), and 8 (Okanagan). These permits enable guide-outfitters to operate, hunt, and harvest in resiareas. tdent-only Resident-only areas have been set aside to allow residents to enjoy spatial hunting areas without interference, competition, or over-harvest from guide-outfitters. While
these permits are issued annually, our member regions have never been consulted or notified that guide-outfitters have been enabled to hunt in resident-only areas. The original intent of these permits was that they could be issued if management objectives had not been achieved through liberalization or changes to resident harvest. In all these cases, there has been no attempt by staff to encourage resident harvest or consult on the issuance of these permits. ••• The BC Wildlife Federation expects government and its agents to act in a man-
ner which is transparent and consistent with policy. Compromising wildlife values and resident-only areas is not consistent with sustainability or resident hunters’ priority access to the resource. The BC Wildlife Federation is extremely disappointed in the marginalization of public access to the resource. Wilf Pfleiderer, chairman BCWF Wildlife & Allocations Committee BC Wildlife Federation For the full transcript of this letter, go to Opinion, Letters at www.kelownacapnews.com.
Act quickly before mussels infest our lakes Open Letter to MLA Steve Thomson, and MP Ron Cannan: Re: Mussel Invasion of Okanagan Lakes. I read an article in the Capital News Thursday April 3 (A Need To Fight
Mussel Invasion, by Richard Rolke), of the risk of zebra and quagga mussels infestation to our lake system in the Okanagan Valley. This is a very serious issue. If it’s not dealt
with now, then it will surely cost millions of dollars of taxpayers’ money later on. This was the same with the pine beetle infestation. Experts in the field were warning gov-
ernments about this for years, until it was finally taken seriously. By then, thousands of acres were affected and cost millions of dollars more than if it was addressed quickly and timely.
Please take this risk seriously before a repetition of the pine beetle debacle happens again, but this time to our beautiful lakes. N. Shearing, Kelowna
Bright, noisy car wash belongs in industrial area To the editor: I was alarmed to hear of the proposal to build a large car wash adjacent to both Sandalwood Retirement Community and Sutton Glen Park which is part of the Brandt’s Creek Linear Park. This area is frequented by many dog walkers, cyclists, elderly people and children, not
to mention the many ducks and birds. It is not just the residents of Sandalwood that would be affected but the many people who enjoy this park and walkway everyday. What possible business sense does it make to have a large car wash two blocks from an existing one? I use the Petro Can car wash on Kane frequently and there is rarely anyone
waiting in line. This type of business, with its light and noise pollution, belongs in an industrial or established business district, not in a quiet community adjacent to a popular park. I believe this business would adversely affect the entire neighbourhood. Catherine Sawyer, Kelowna

ALR legislative changes found to be upsetting To the editor: I am deeply opposed to and offended by Bill 24. I insist that our elected government cease in moving forward with this bill and undertake meaningful consultation and dialogue with farmers, the food security movement, and with the general public to determine what are the careful changes that might be made to the ALR and the ALC as they now stand. It is inconceivable that the Liberal government can even consider reducing protection for farmland in British Columbia when there is overwhelming evidence and concern at the global and national level about the
looming food security crisis across the world and in our own backyards. There is mounting evidence that a food crisis is looming and this it is increasingly important that nations and regions strengthen their food production and storage capacities in order to become more food sovereign. There are reports (see www.kelownacapnews. com for full transcript with links) that will help to inform everyone of the larger food crisis that is deepening every day. There is a mounting cry to return to more regional and local food systems as one of the most important steps to mitigating climate change and to
adapting our food systems to be resilient in an uncertain future: I ask that Premier Christy Clark and the B.C. Liberals please lift your heads up from your narrow focus on fossil fuel industries and see the bigger picture of the utter absurdity of your actions at a time when the food security of our own province and its citizens is at risk of major upheaval : Please do the right thing for British Columbians and see to the long term protection of our future farmland instead of looking at the short term gains of jobs created by the resource extraction industry that continues to pollute the earth and our
Harper shows vets no respect To the editor: It angers me to no end that the Harper government is actively fighting Canadian veterans in a B.C. Supreme Court case by arguing they have no social contract with our returning vets, regardless of how broken they may be physically and mentally. Disgusting is the only way to describe this. How dare you vote to send soldiers to war and then complain they cost too much when they return alive? How dare you use the military as a
photo-op and to score political points only to toss them aside when push comes to shove? If respect could be quantified numerically, the Conservative Party of Canada’s respect for veterans would be less than zero. As one veteran aptly put it— the closest Stephen Harper or Julian Fantino have ever come to a trench is in their trench coats. John West, West Kelowna
precious waters. Please engage in the democratic process that you are charged to protect by partaking in meaningful debate with the public. It is shameful the way that the Liberal government has made a mockery of the public process by not disclosing the intentions to unravel the ALR and ALC in their election platform, by hiding the changes in the Core Review Process instead of being up front about their intentions, and by ramming this damaging bill through the legislature without any time for considerate thought and open debate about the impact of these decisions and about whose best interest these changes serve. Certainly, the changes to the ALR and ALC do not serve
the interests of the majority farmers nor of the majority of BC families, who you are sworn to protect. The removal of protection of our Agricultural Land Reserve and of the autonomous power of the Agricultural Land Commission is a blatant abuse of the sacred public trust. Shame on BC Liberals for trading this sacred trust and for deceiving the public about your intentions with the ALR and ALC right from the outset of this campaign. On behalf of the people of British Columbia, I urge you everyone to call our government MLAs and ask them to cancel Bill 24. Carol Kergan, board member, Central Okanagan Food Policy Council

One of the major infrastructure projects yet to be completed is an improvement to the baggage handling and delivery system at the airport, including new baggage carousels. In 2013, the airport saw just over 1.5 million passengers use the terminal, a figure it had not expected to reach until late this year. The airport is now the 10th busiest in Canada, just behind Victoria and well ahead of St. John’s in Newfoundland. Part of the recent growth at the airport has been attributed to a full year of the Kelowna-Los Angeles route operated by United Airlines, introduction of Pacific Coastal Airlines Kelowna-Cranbrook route six days per week, Air North flying between Kelowna and Whitehorse twice a week and bigger planes used by Air Canada for its flights to Vancouver. Flights between Kelowna and Fort McMurray are due to start March 12. Hynes said in addition, YLW has become a mini hub airport for some air travellers from places like Whitehorse and the Kootenays, who prefer to connect to sun destinations—like Mexican resort cities—in Kelowna rather than travel to Vancouver to catch their connecting flights.

Atlanta-based rock band Collective Soul celebrated the 20th anniversary of the release of its first album, Hints, Allegations And Things Left Unsaid, with a concert tour stop at Kelowna’s Prospera Place Friday night. The high-energy show featured many of the band’s hits from its eight studio albums sandwiched between songs from the its upcoming new album, See What You Started By Continuing, set for release this summer. The new material led off the concert and closed the set prior to the encore, which featured one of the band’s biggest hits, Shine. Collective Soul, fronted by the hyper-energetic Ed Roland, had most of the crowd of about 4,000 on its feet for much of the evening and on several occasions had the audience singing along. While in Kelowna, Roland even did a bit of music shopping, telling the crowd he added some records to his vinyl collection. “I’m not going to let it die,” he proclaimed. The opening act, well-known Canadian band 54/40, did much the same during its entertaining 45-minute set. Also packed with its hits, 54/40’s set was an up-tempo offering that went over well with the enthusiastic, mainly middle-aged crowd.

Play montage pays homage to car culture UBC Okanagan performance students are staging a rousing year-ender with a montage that pays homage to our eternal fascination with the automobile—or in this case, the West’s favourite steed of the highway, the venerable pickup truck. Created and performed by bachelor of fine arts students in the interdisciplinary performance program in the university’s department of creative studies, Roundabout is a story of the joy and disappointment surrounding car culture. Under the direction of associate professor Neil Cadger, the story starts in Kelowna with a young man named Kyle. He is desperate, unable to make payments on the beautiful, black Ford 150 truck he bought in Edmonton. The stash of cash he saved from a year’s labour in the oil sands is gone and there’s no work in sight. Roundabout uses this simple story to explore how we see and don’t see cars—and how our culture is molded by their seductive promises. The performance features a live band, choral singing, evocative imagery and experimental video and sound components. Roundabout is being performed Thursday, April 10, Friday, April 11, and Saturday, April 12, 8 p.m., at University Theatre, (ADM026), at UBC’s Okanagan campus. Admission is $5 at the door.
Name change reflects institute’s research themes The Okanagan Institute for Biodiversity, Resilience and Ecosystem Services (BRAES) has risen from the former Institute for Species at Risk and Habitat Studies (SARAHS) at UBC Okanagan. “The name change not only more accurately reflects the institute’s research mandate, but also better positions the Okanagan campus as a centre of excellence for research in ecology, natural resource management, and the environment,” said Lael Parrott, director of the Okanagan Institute for BRAES. BRAES comprises more than 20 faculty members and about 70 graduate and undergraduate students from various

Teeth grinding can reflect lifestyle or a serious condition
T

while sleeping. The medical term for teeth grinding is bruxism,

and nighttime teeth grinding is called sleep bruxism.

Bruxism, if severe enough, can cause headaches, tooth damage and jaw problems or disorders, but it may often go undiagnosed, especially with sleep bruxism. Symptoms of bruxism are grinding or clenching teeth, worn, flattened, chipped, or overly sensitive teeth, tight jaw or jaw pain, ear ache because of a tight jaw, disrupted sleep, neck and shoulder tension, or headaches. Conventional medicine doesn’t entirely understand the causes of teeth grinding, however adult teeth grinding can be linked to anxiety, stress or tension, suppressed anger or frustration, or aggressive, competitive or hyperactive personalities.
NEEDLE NOTES
James Kaufman Other causes may be poor alignment of upper and lower teeth or the body’s natural sleep cycles. In some cases, bruxism can be a result of another disease, such as Parkinson’s or Huntington diseases. In children, teeth grinding may be due to the growth and development of teeth and jaws, and is usually outgrown by adolescence.

There isn’t much that medical treatment can do to resolve teeth grinding—medications are largely ineffective but muscle relaxants may be prescribed or your doctor may consider changing one of your medications if teeth grinding is a side effect. A mouth guard may also be fitted to protect teeth while sleeping, or your dentist may correct misaligned teeth. The best solutions seem to be lifestyle and behavioural changes, including reducing stress and learning to manage stress better through relaxation and exercise, and practicing an awareness of proper jaw and mouth position, with the tongue on the roof of the mouth, jaw relaxed, the teeth slightly parted and the mouth closed. From a traditional Chinese medicine perspective, there are five main patterns commonly seen in this disorder. Out of these, four are considered excessive conditions where one or two organs are functioning at a higher than normal rate, commonly the heart, stomach, and liver. Excess types of bruxism are typically seen in people with stress, anxiety, tension, anger and frustration, and hyperactivity or competitiveness because the hyperactive state of these organs leaves the mind and body in a restless or agitated state. Another excess pattern is caused largely by poor diet that weakens the digestion and causes food to stagnate in the digestive system. The other cause of bruxism is a deficient condition of blood and qienergy weakness. The symptoms common in this pattern are pale complexion, dizziness, vertigo, heart palpitations, pale lips and nails and disinclination to sleep. The main differentiation in this pattern is that the teeth grinding would be rather quiet, low, dull sounding, rather than rougher and louder sounding in the excess patterns. The key to acupuncture and Chinese medicine and its effectiveness is focusing on not only the symptoms, but the cause. Some simple changes to diet and lifestyle habits are also easy, effective ways to increase the results of acupuncture. www.okanagan acupuncture.com.

Okanagan Rockets book trip to Telus Cup Warren Henderson STAFF REPORTER
So far, no challenge has proven too steep for the 2013-14 edition of the Okanagan Rockets. Two weeks after knocking off the defending B.C. champs in their own building, the Rockets took down the defending Canadian-champion Red Deer Optimist Chiefs in three games in the Pacific regional final in Alberta. The win secured the Okanagan squad a spot in the Telus Cup Canadian midget hockey championship for the first time in club history. In Red Deer, the Rockets’ once again exercised their flair for the dramatic by edging the Chiefs 3-2 Sunday afternoon in overtime in the third and deciding game. The Rockets, who trailed 2-1 heading into the third period, again showed their trademark resilience as Tanner Browne scored with
eight minutes remaining to force the extra period. That then set the stage for Liam Finlay, as the Rockets’ forward buried a rebound for the game winner just over five minutes into OT, sending his club to nationals. After absorbing a 7-1 drubbing at the hands of the Chiefs just a day earlier in Game 2, Michaud said his club’s character and commitment came through one more time. “It’s a testament to our whole group, right from (head coach) Mack O’Rourke to Tez, our trainer, and the way all 25 guys believe in each other,” said Rockets’ GM David Michaud. “We know we can accomplish great things when we put our mind to it. With these guys, when they get knocked down they don’t want to stay down. The guys have been great dealing with adversity all year.” The Rockets, who finished second in the BCMML during the regu-

Red Deer had also won five consecutive Alberta titles, but were stopped short in their big for a third straight Canadian title by the Rock-
ets—despite the hostile environment and some 2,200 vocal Red Deer fans in the stands. “I don’t know how many teams would have
rebounded from a 7-1 loss and in an environment like that,” he said. “It was no question, the most intense environment the boys have ever played
in. To see them rise above that and win…there’s nothing sweeter.” The Telus Cup, which runs April 21 to 27 in Moose Jaw, Sask., features five other teams— the host Moose Jaw Warriors, Prince Albert Mintos, Toronto Young Nationals, Halifax Macs and the Quebec champions, who have yet to be determined. Even before the puck was dropped last fall, the Rockets’ goal was to qualify for the national midget hockey championship. And although that target has now been met, Michaud said his club isn’t going to Moose Jaw to simply make an appearance. “We’re not happy just to be there,” Michaud said. “We might as well try and finish this and win a national championship.” The Rockets will open the Telus Cup on Monday, April 21 against the Quebec champions. whenderson @kelownacapnews.com

Rockets take two-game playoff lead to Washington Warren Henderson STAFF REPORTER
A pair of convincing home-ice wins in the books, the Kelowna Rockets are in the driver’s seat in the WHL’s Western Conference final against Seattle. Still, Ryan Huska assures his club is taking nothing for granted heading into Game 3 of the ser-
ies Tuesday night in Kent, Wash. One of the Western Conference’s best home teams during the regular season, the Thunderbirds are 3-0 at the ShoWare Center during the playoffs. “The games down there are going to be close,” Huska predicted. “They’re going to have a big push against us ear-
ly, the crowds are big and loud down there, so we have to be moving our feet and be on pucks right from the start. I expect two tough games.” The Rockets put up a dozen goals in winning the first two games of the series in Kelowna—6-2 on Thursday and 6-3 on Saturday. In addition to an effective power play and
solid goaltending from Jordon Cooke in the first two games, Huska praised his club for playing a disciplined game— an aspect he said will be vital to the team’s success in Washington. “We haven’t been taking a lot of penalties and, at playoff time, that’s important,” Huska said. “The guys have managed to control their emotions
and that’s not an easy thing to do. Putting team before self is what we like to see.” Game 4 in the best-ofseven series goes Wednesday night at the ShoWare Center. A fifth game, if needed, would be played Friday at Prospera Place.
SEVERSON POW…

Damon Severson has been named the WHL’s player of the week. Severson, 19, scored three goals and added four assists for seven points and a +3 rating in a pair of second-round playoff wins over Seattle. The Melville, Sask. native had two goals and two assists in a 6-2 win Thursday, then followed up with a three-point night
in a 6-3 Kelowna victory Saturday.

Bantam Rockets bronzed at Western Canada AAAAAA champs Bantam Rockets bronzed at Western Canada champs
Warren Henderson
STAFF REPORTER
On Saturday, the host bantam Kelowna Rockets were just over a minute away from missing out on the playoffs entirely. A day later, the Rockets were celebrating a bronze medal win at the Western Canada Bantam AAA Hockey Championship. The Rockets downed the Manitoba champion Winnipeg Monarchs 2-1 Sunday afternoon at Rutland Arena to finish third
at the five-team bantam showcase. Competing against the four champions from the Western provinces, the Rockets were considered the underdogs at the championship, but head coach Tom Watters said his club’s resolve, work ethic and commitment to team play made the difference. “I think the boys realized that hard work pays off,” said Watters. “Because that’s really what it was, and it was a total team effort. There were
some boys that didn’t see quite as much ice as they would have liked, but I’m sure they’re happy with the result.” With the Rockets clinging to a 2-1 lead late in the game, Manitoba pulled their goaltender and very nearly scored the equalizer. But the puck bounced off the goal post and stayed out, a sign that perhaps the bronze was in the stars. “We’ve been snake-bitten a few times this year and more often that not we’ve had good
luck in the last five minutes of our hockey games,” Watters said. “It was a gutsy win, the boys played hard. Not much offence in the third, but we sure looked after our end of the ice.” The Rockets lost their first three games of the tournament and came up against Yorkton, Sask., another winless team, in their final round robin game on Saturday morning. Kelowna trailed 2-1 with time winding down and needed to earn a tie
to move onto the playoffs. With just over a minute remaining and their net empty for an extra attacker, Kelowna evened the count on a goal by Jeremy Hite and the Rockets were on their way to the bronze medal game. “That play that got us into this game was executed perfectly, the boys did a great job on that,” Watters said. In the end, Watters said his team competed and did Kelowna proud with its effort against Western Canada’s elite
bantam talent. “We were only really out of one hockey game out of the five that we played,” he said. “It was our 70th game of hockey this year, so we’re ecstatic with the result.” The Rockets are: Jordan Wilde, Justin Bradley, Mitchell Prowse, Wyatt Head, Spencer Hora, Zach Whitehead, Matt Alcorn, Seth Barton, Connor Marritt, Ryan Moon, Lucas Cullen, Michael McCready, Daman Kraeleman, Eli Zummack, Hayden Courtney,
Keltie Jeri-Leon, Jeffrey Karpowoch, Jeremy Hite, Scott Freeman and James Fischer. The coaches are Tom Watters, Brian Cullen and Sean Mulcahy, the manager is Dave Alcorn, while David Marritt looks after safety for the Rockets. Meanwhile, in a thrilling championship final, North Shore Winter Club defeated the Alberta champion Lloydminster Heat 4-3 in double overtime to claim the gold medal. (See photo page A17.)

It’s a first for the B.C. Hockey League. Since the Junior A league expanded to at least two divisions in 1970-71, two teams who finished in third place in their respective divisions in the regular season have never met in the Fred Page Cup championship. The Vernon Vipers and Coquitlam Express are about to make history. Both third-place teams advanced to the league final when the Express knocked off the top-seeded Victoria Grizzlies 4-3
Thursday in triple overtime in Victoria in what turned out to be the last game of the semi-final round-robin tournament. “We’re extremely excited to be in the final,” said Vipers head coach Jason Williamson Friday. “We set out at the beginning of the year to be in the final as one of our goals, and hopefully win it.” The last time the BCHL final featured two teams that failed to win their division in the regular season was 2000-01,
Both teams (Vernon, 11 days; Coquitlam, eight days) will have lengthy layoffs prior to the start of the best-of-seven Fred Page Cup championship Friday, April 11, at Kal Tire Place. Game 2 is Saturday in Vernon before the series shifts to Coquitlam for Games 3 and 4 Monday and Tuesday, April 14 and 15. “We’ve always stressed we wanted to go about this the right way and win our way into the Royal Bank Cup,” said Williamson. “There’s
only two teams left in our league and we’ve put ourselves into a good position.” The winner of the Fred Page Cup will advance to the Western Canada Cup in Dauphin, Man. starting April 20 with the winners of the Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba leagues, along with the host Dauphin Kings. The top two teams from that tournament advance to the Royal Bank Cup Canadian tournament May 10 to18 at Kal Tire Place.
Is there anything, beside medication, we can do to help Dad with the progression of Alzheimer’s?
A
According to an Alzheimer’s Association study, more than 83% of people diagnosed with Alzheimer’s live at home and are cared for by their family. There are many reasons why home is the best place to be; quality of life, familiarity, lifelong partnership with spouse, financial management to name a few. The Ashby Memory Method (AMM) program is a person centered program of thinking & activity focused exercises that helps those already experiencing memory loss & early to moderate Alzheimer’s disease manage their symptoms better for longer. AMM uses multiple types of interaction & stimulation to match each person’s interest & strengths while promoting personal connection & independence. At Nurse Next Door, we start with a baseline assessment & reassess periodically. We’ve actually seen an improvement in DSAT scores after only eight weeks in the program. Coupled with respite time or the main caregiver, generally the spouse, AMM has successfully reduced the level of stress & anxiety in the home. While a reduction in the progression of the disease may result from this program on its own or in combination with medications use to treat Alzheimer’s, enabling the client to remain happy & healthy in the home continues to be one of the top priorities for our clients & families.

Should I get pre-approved for a mortgage before I start looking for a house?
Getting pre-approved for a mortgage should be one of the first steps you take when buying a new home. By doing so you’ll know how much the Lender is willing to lend you and therefore, how much you can afford when looking for your new home. This will also allow you to lock in your interest rate at the current rate to protect you if interest rates rise. Make sure you see a Licensed Mortgage Broker who can educate you on the process. It Is offered as a free service so please don’t hesitate to get in touch should you have ANY questions.

when the Victoria Salsa beat the Merritt Centennials in seven games. Both finished in second place during the season. Coquitlam’s victory gave them a record of 2-1 through three games and eliminated Victoria, who were 0-3. The Vipers were 2-0 after taking their first two games. The Express win gives Vernon home-ice advantage, as the Vipers were seeded second in the three-team round-robin, and Coquitlam was ranked third.

On the surface, pro wrestlers and young children in need may not appear to have a lot in common.

SENIORS Coming to terms
with our own mortality
T
alking about facing our own death is not something that we engage in too easily with our close family members and friends. It certainly doesn’t seem to come up in conversation too often at the social gatherings I attend. Many of us have had experiences of death over our lives and we take the images, observations and feelings that were prevalent in those experiences into our psyche. Particularly as children, we learned how to or how not to deal with loss from our parents and grandparents and it can set a tone of avoidance for us for our lifetime it seems, until we pause to sit with it and perhaps question if there is a better way. My husband’s father died of a heart attack at the age of 36 in front of him, a young lad of only five at the time. He does not remember anyone really explaining what had happened to him and attending to his fearful confusion that his beloved dad had left him so suddenly in this manner. It is not really any surprise that when he began to have symptoms of heart problems himself, he ignored the signs and did not want to deal with facing not only what was happening to him, but what had happened to his dad so many years ago. I noticed for myself as well, that I did not want to face the emotions of what this might mean for our future or feel the deep emotional pain of potentially having him leave me sooner than I ever imagined. We ended up just not talking about it and I watched as we both became somewhat numb in the months following, choosing not to face the reality of what was happening for each of us. Death loomed within our relationship like a dark cloud, until we began to address what we were feeling. Freud described two primordial forces that he thought drove the human experience. One is libido, the life instinct and the other is thanatos, the death instinct. These bipolar energies that are at work in the human psyche, in his view, were quite black and white. Libido being full of creativity and gratification and thanatos as driving us towards annihilation and the cessation of all activity. Well, who wants to dip their big toe into that?

David Feinstein, co-author of Rituals for Living and Dying states: “When we confront our mortality, a shift occurs in our attention that makes us more aware of how Marjorie precious life really is. “We have an enHorne hanced ability to accept ourselves, along with a greater ability to love. We lose the pervasive anxiety that makes us grasp obsessively for power, wealth, and fame. “As we discover a deepened sense of purpose and a profound connectedness with other people, we tend to be motivated by higher, more universal values, such as love, beauty, truth, and justice.” To me, that would say that there is purpose in not putting a lid on thanatos. That perhaps embracing rather than rejecting the message of our death instinct might allow us to stay connected to the source of creative vitality that is within us and thereby experience not a contraction from the thought of dying, but a freedom that comes from connecting to truth and our own authenticity. Looking back over our life and embracing all of our experiences of both loss and elation, seems to hold the key to becoming more willing to uncover the hidden meaning to our life as we age. I don’t think there is any age limit to this discovery. What a wonderful thought to realize that the door to growth is always open if we choose to stop negatively thinking of ourselves as victims of what has happened to us in the past. We can instead begin focusing on what is the deeper intention or purpose for our life that is perhaps still labouring to be born. By fearing death, we feel anxious. What is anxiety? Rabbi Zalman Schachter-Shalomi in his book From Age-ing to Sageing wrote: “It is the pain that we give ourselves whenever we trespass into emotionally dangerous territory.” I have been told that every seeming problem is a lack of forgiveness, sometimes of others, but often of ourselves. Forgiveness requires a slight shift of consciousness and the willingness to risk opening your heart to another person. A group of women will be gathering for a workshop on April 26 and 27 called The Wisdom Circle, to explore coming to peace with their past in order to live more fully in the present.

S Spring clean your health routine Salvation Army, Craftsman Collision continuing fight against hunger C ▼ FUNDRAISER
▼ DIET AND EXERCISE
Tristica Curley CONTRIBUTOR
Along with the warmer weather, this time of year often brings with it the annual “spring clean.” When we think of spring cleaning, we generally think of tidying out cars, garages, homes, and anything else that may have accumulated clutter over the winter. But as a dietitian, I encourage my clients to also think about tidying up their eating and activity routines. Spring is the perfect time to say good-bye to winter hibernation patterns and say hello to fresh, healthy lifestyle changes. Here are my tips for simple ways to springclean your routine: 1. Get moving During the winter, many of us pack on extra padding by eating more
calorie dense foods and being less active indoors. So with the arrival of spring, it’s time to change that. As the temperatures rise, enjoy the weather and get outdoors, grab a frisbee, or hit one of the many beautiful trails Kelowna has to offer. 2. Eat the colours of the rainbow We are blessed in the Okanagan with an abundance of local fruits and vegetables that crop up this time of year—and one of the best ways to spring clean your diet routine is to add colourful produce to your meals. Try to choose from every colour of the rainbow like fresh blueberries, red peppers and leafy greens to up your intake of essential vitamins and fibre, without adding unnecessary calories. 3. Don’t deprive
yourself People often want to tone up in the spring in order to look and feel their best for beach season. Depriving yourself is not the answer, however. Those who find ways to incorporate the things they love into their day are more likely to stick with their health routines for the long-term. If you are a soda pop fan, for example, choose portion-controlled mini cans of Coke which have 100 calories or less per serving. Craving a burger? Keep calories in check by having a slider, skipping the cheese and then loading it with your favourite vegetable toppings, like lettuce, onions and tomato. 4. Increase your water intake We’ve heard it before but hydration is key to
overall health, and most of us don’t drink enough during the day. What’s more, we often mistake thirst for hunger, which can cause us to eat unnecessary calories and leave us feeling lethargic and unmotivated. Research has shown that simply drinking one to two cups of water before every meal can help curb thirst and over-eating. This spring, make your health a priority and give yourself an eating and activity makeover. By summer, you’ll be happy you did. More ways to make healthy changes can be found at www.fuelingwithfood.com. Tristaca Curley is a registered dietitian in Kelowna and owner of Fueling With Food nutrition counselling.

Supporting small business a key to economic growth C
hances are, you know someone who owns or depends on small business. Someone who believed in themselves, and who put it all on the line to realize their dream and be their own boss. The chances of that are good because B.C. is positively teeming with small business. It represents 98 per cent of all business. They have a huge impact even beyond our borders, driving over half of our total exports. Perhaps most significantly, small business employs more than one million British Columbians. In a province with a total labour force of just under 2.5 million, that’s a huge number. As we continue to build a strong economy
MLA’S REPORT
Christy Clark that creates jobs, supporting small business will continue to be crucial. That’s why we promised to find ways to help small business however we can. We’ve had successes. B.C.’s small-business corporate income tax rate is among the lowest in Canada. Through the small business venture capital program, we created $152 million in tax credits to encourage angel invest-
ors to support higher-risk startups. We’re helping microbusiness with training programs they might not otherwise be able to afford. And B.C. still boats the country’s only “A” grade for cutting red tape from the Canadian Federation of Independent Business. But we can and will do more. When we announced the consultation process to create the Small Business Accord in 2012, we asked small business what we could do as a government to help. More than 35,000 individuals provided feedback through community meetings, an online survey, and Twitter town halls. One particular sugges-
tion we heard more than once was making it easier for small business to sell to government. For example, RFPs for government services were long and complicated—on average, around 18 pages, but sometimes upwards of 80 —probably confirming a lot of people’s suspicions about governments along the way. At best, this was time-consuming. At worst, it effectively barred small business from competing; they simply don’t have the people power to slog through long and complex documentation. We promised to find a way to even the playing field. And on Monday, we took a major step forward. B.C. Minister of State for Small Business Naomi Yamamoto official-
ly launched the provincial government’s twopage short-form request for proposals under $250,000. It will be a smart form —a fillable online PDF that provides consistency for bidders and ministries alike. The simplified two page form delivers on a
BC Small Business Accord commitment to reduce barriers to government’s procurement process, while also streamlining government processes and templates. For small business, doing business with the provincial government should be as profitable and pain-free as possible.
It should be another step towards realizing their dream of running their own successful business, one their family can depend on. After this week, hopefully it will be. Christy Clark is the Liberal MLA for Westside-Kelowna.

DUNCAN: BESSIE MAE After a long and fulfilling life Bessie passed away at the Golden and District Hospital on April 2rd, 2014. Born in Kelowna, November 13th, 1917 to Augustus and Minnie Macdonnell, Bessie was raised in the Winfield/Ellison districts. She loved all the outdoor activities of riding, hiking and gardening. In 1940 Bessie married Andrew Duncan Jr beginning her married life on the Belgo then following him to some of his postings while he was in the Airforce. They lived on the Belgo until 1954 when they bought an orchard in Westbank where they continued to raise their three children. Bessie was an extremely hard worker as well as a great organizer. Her gardens, chickens, baking and home-making skills are still remembered. Parties with games, mazes and prizes for children and adults alike encouraged even the most reluctant to take part. Family was Bessie’s priority and joy but she also contributed a great deal to her community through her work with the church and support of children and families in need. Bessie is survived by her daughters Jo-Ann (John Ackery), Sharon (Brian Weir), son David Duncan, sisters Joy Cross and Phyllis Hanson, brother Allan Macdonnell and brother-in-law Frank (Mike) Duncan. She leaves 8 grandchildren and 8 great-grandchildren and 1 great-great grandchild and many nieces and nephews. She was predeceased by her husband Andrew, her brother George, and sisters Norma and Gwen. A Celebration of Bessie’s Life will be held on Wednesday, May 14th, 2014 at 2:00 PM from the Chapel of First Memorial Funeral Services, 1211 Sutherland Ave. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to the Kelowna General Hospital Foundation (Children’s Care Fund) or the British Columbia Children’s Hospital. Condolences may be sent to the family by visiting www.mem.com, click on stories and type in Bessie Duncan. Arrangements entrusted with First Memorial Funeral Services, Kelowna. 250-762-2299

Rose Valley Elementary “Respect & Value Everyone”
Community Connection April 2014
Maker Day 2014 Young Entrepreneur Fair
Maker Day is an opportunity for students to invent, design, create and build anything with the goal of improving the world in some way. Grade 4 students in Mr. Kuffner’s class celebrated innovation and creativity by coming up with projects to address the
question, “How can we encourage kids to exercise and be physically active?” Using cardboard, tape, paint, and many other art supplies, students worked collaboratively to develop a concept and present it to their peers. Maker Day is a worldwide movement that encourages students to learn about the trades. Here are some reports from the students: By Shaela K., Grade 4 “We did this project to get kids off the couch
and not play video games as much. We had to invent a toy that was fun and it had to get kids active. First we drew a rough copy of our invention. Next we voted on which one to build. We went to the art room and we got to choose from around 75 supplies. Lastly, we built it. Our invention was the Dance ‘O’ Tennis. This is how it works. You dance around the toy and Toy Danco copies you. I don’t know what I want to be when I grow up but if I like building things I could be a carpenter.” By Ava C., Grade 4 “The criterion was to build and invent a toy that… a) gets kids moving. b) is more fun than video games First we had to draw a picture of what it was going to look like. Then we were given a choice of around 50 supplies to build with. In the morning we came in and we started building our project. Our invention was the Super Dancer. We had a disco ball, dance floor, Wii 5 and move boots. How you play is you step into the move boots and select your song. Next you get locked in then the song starts and you dance and the dance moves show up on the screen. If I liked building I could possibly get into carpentry, architecture or engineering.”
Dr. Seuss Week in Kindergarten!
By Grace
Did you know that the famous author, Dr. Seuss, would have been 110 on March the 2nd? Rose Valley Kindergarten students recently celebrated his life over the course of a fun, activity filled week! Each of the 5 days was centered around one of Dr. Seuss’ famous works of fiction. Mixed Up Monday focused on the story And to Think that I Saw It on Mulberry Street. Children came to school with shirts on backwards, inside out, etc. On Top Hat Tuesday they came to school wearing their funniest hat to celebrate The Cat in the Hat. Wacky socks were worn on Wacky Wednesday
during the reading of Fox in Socks. Oh, the Thinks You Can Think inspired children to create their own inventions on Thinking Thursday. The week was wrapped up with Green Eggs and Ham on Funny Food Friday! Everyone bravely sampled real green eggs and ham. A fun week of literature based activities was had by all!
Quotes from Kindergarteners: Lincoln: I love eating green eggs and ham! Carson: I liked the backwards day! I wanted to put my underwear on top of my pants! Charlie: I liked watching Horton Hears a Who Aria: I liked the green eggs more than the ham! Waylon: I liked the green eggs because my favourite colour is green and I love eggs! Sadie: I liked the Cat in the Hat day because we got to wear hats!
By Mckinley Kemp You may think you have heard it all. Terry Fox runs across Canada. School raises $1000 for charity. But I bet you haven’t heard about the business world of a child. That’s right folks, kids have taken over the business of making money and having fun in the process. To think, it all went down in Rose Valley Elementary school’s gym, within an hour and a half! You see, all the grade six students put their heads to work and came up with hip and happening products to sell to the public. Parents, relatives, friends, staff, and yes, kids, were all present. Everyone had different things to offer after working through the month of February and the prices ranged from 50¢ to $15! We had everything from magnets and stress balls to candleholders and sports racks. All were fashioned by RVE’s amazing students with the help of some relatives and siblings. Not only did we sell cool things, but with our students’
generous hearts, we donated to organizations that help others. Some of the organizations we donated to were
Canuck Place, the SPCA, cancer research, and prevention of shark finning. Can you believe just how big our hearts can be! Well that’s just what happened when we made some extra cash in this interactive experience.
We learned just how difficult it is to run a business, but after following some stages, we turned out alright with our products. Through setting goals, product development and market research, we understood the value of customers wants and needs. We found out that people were attracted to all the interesting and creative display choices at our fair. Interacting with customers really made a difference in the way people thought about our products. So, do you think you will come up to the school the next time we have something as fantastic as this? Well, we all hope you said, “Yes!” because we can’t wait to see you there. Remember, bring some smiles and definitely your wallet, and you better know, that at RVE when we Respect and Value Everyone, students create moments just like these.
Spaghetti Bridge Competition By Brynn and Alex This year seven grade six students were chosen to participate in the Spaghetti Bridge Competition. Those students were Brynn, Alex, Ren, Zach, Jorden, Annika and Sydney. To participate in the competition our teacher chose seven people that had good grades in math. The bridge we made was the San Francisco Golden Gate Bridge. The supplies that we used to make the bridge
were hot glue and spaghetti. The first thing we did was draw out a plan and then we all had different parts of the bridge to make. After the competition at Okanagan College, the bridge held 24 pounds before breaking! We all had lots of fun building the bridge and participating in the competition. Also we learned a lot about architecture and teamwork!
RVE Robotics
By Jenaya Last fall ten grade 6 students at Rose Valley Elementary were chosen to participate in an extracurricular enrichment activity, robotics. Robotics was led by Mr. Van Brummelen, the Vice Principal. We started by getting into teams of two. Then each team built their own robots which ended up looking a bit like cars. Next we added on different sensors and programmed the robots to be able to conquer different challenges. Some of my favourite challenges included making the robot follow a black line and also making the robot turn when it came close to a wall. Everyone who was in Robotics enjoyed it immensely. It was so much fun to be able to work with each other and have the joy of achieving challenges. All of the participants were disappointed when the term ended, but we look forward to having these neat opportunities again soon.

Pirouette on finances creates $30,000 surplus Alistair Waters ASSISTANT EDITOR
Ballet Kelowna says the show will go on next season. Just over a year after announcing it planned to shut down because of a lack of support and money, the local dance company says it will finish its season next month with a $30,000 surplus and three-times the membership support it had in February 2013. Speaking to council on Monday, Ballet Kelowna chairwoman Deborah Ward credited the dramatic turnaround to an outpour-
ing of support across the Okanagan following last February’s announcement. With a renewal of its annual $30,000 city grant on the line, Ward said this past year the city’s money helped her organization raise a further $107,000 in government grants and another $78,000 in private donations. With a deliberately shortened season, a new board in place and a tripling of its membership base, Ballet Kelowna now plans to hire a new artistic director/CEO and general manager to replace retiring artistic director and founder

David LeHay and has put together a strategic plan for continued future success. “The last year has been extremely challenging, but because of a lot of hard work by a lot of people we are now even stronger,” said Ward. “We are beginning a new chapter in our history.” Kelowna Mayor Walter Gray said it was nice to see the momentum created after the shock many felt that Ballet Kelowna could shut down. “My appeal to the public is not only should they continue to buy tickets but also make a contribution,” said Gray, 1

noting he and his wife Doreen have committed to donate to Ballet Kelowna for the next five years. Ward said moving forward, Ballet Kelowna will launch a major marketing campaign for its last show of the season scheduled for April 25 in Kelowna, plans to slowly lengthen its season over next three to five years, and increase its budget to between $325,000 and $400,000 from the current $265,000. City council agreed to give Ballet Kelowna a $30,000 grant after hearing Ward’s report.

A need to fight mussel invasion
STAFF REPORTER
Mounties have released little information regarding a death they deemed “suspicious” Tuesday morning. However, late Wednesday they confirmed the deceased is Amy Jane Parkes, 35. Investigators believe an autopsy being conducted today will prove she was murdered. RCMP were called to Hiawatha mobile home park to check the welfare of a Kelowna woman at around 9 a.m. April 1, and once there they made a grim discovery. “The body of a woman was found inside and her death has been deemed suspicious,” said Const. Kris Clark, noting that Kelowna’s Serious Crime Unit is investigating. Police have been in and out of the unit since their discovery, and interviewed neighbours for what they may have seen. It’s been a spectacle Hiawatha residents have taken a keen interest in— one resident even moved his couch onto the lawn for most of Tuesday, and a small group gathered to get an upfront look at the police activity. That attention to the happenings at the address now marked with police tape, however, didn’t provide any insights into

Jennifer Smith Communications errors are likely at the root of a confusing vote B.C. orchardists turned in this winter, dousing plans for an Apple Research and Promotion Agency in B.C. From November to mid-February, growers were given mailed ballots and asked to vote on whether to accept a levy of $1.60 per apple bin to establish the agency, which could then join counterparts in Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia to collect levies from all imported apples and fund national promotion efforts highlighting the benefits of apples. “I think people just didn’t understand some of the ramifications of what was being proposed,” said Fred Steele, president of the B.C. Fruit Growers’ Association and an apple orchardist. Officially, the vote was deemed a draw. While the mandated minimum of 42 per cent of growers did turn in a ballot, the results were split 50/50 for and against establishing the new agency. Ultimately, the BCFGA decided it could not proceed. Ballots cast were tracked throughout the process and the votes collected earlier from those attending meetings and responding to the mail-out were just as divided as those who filed last minute at the BCFGA convention mid-February. For apple associations in Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, it’s not good news. “We’re disappointed in the vote because it means we can’t have a national research and promotion agency,” said Cathy McKay, Ontario Apple Growers research chairperson. “…We’re hoping that the British Columbia growers will hold another vote, possibly when more information is available.” In order for counterpart associations to successfully lobby the federal government for a national agency

Okanagan residents are being rallied to fight invaders. The Okanagan Basin Water Board decided Tuesday to consider ways of allowing residents to express concerns about the risk of zebra and quagga mussels to federal and provincial officials. “Our MLAs need countless correspondence from constituents,” said director Toby Pike at a meeting in Coldstream. “This is a nerve issue for people in the valley. They really don’t want this to happen.” The mussels are indigenous to Europe and since arriving in North America, they have spread across the continent, clogging water intake pipes and boat motors. They also deplete food sources for fish, produce toxins that contaminate drinking water and razorsharp shells spread across beaches. Also on Tuesday, the OBWB board agreed to write a letter once again reiterating the need for the federal and provincial governments to take
