CLOSE-UP

Removing disability limitations

Warren Henderson STAFF REPORTER

A

n avid outdoorsman since childhood, Anand Kannan wasn’t sure how he was going to maintain the quality of life he had come to know so well growing up in Kelowna.

Six years ago, an ATV accident rendered the Kelowna man a paraplegic, as venturing outside for physical activity had suddenly become a considerably more complicated exercise.

Then Kannan discovered the Community Recreational Initiatives Society.

A not-for-profit group founded by Troy Becker in 2001, CRIS Adaptive Adventures provides outdoor recreational activities for people with disabilities of all descriptions.

Kannan was first introduced to CRIS several years ago at a barbecue in Fintry and he’s been a satisfied customer ever since.

“They (CRIS) were out there with some trail

WARREN HENDERSON/CAPITAL NEWS

COMMUNITY Recreational Initiative Society founder Troy Becker (left) and staff member Eric Rampone (right), take Anand Kannan for a tour on a piece of adaptive equipment known as a trail rider. riders and they asked if I wanted to give it a try,” Kannan said.

“So they harnessed me up in the trail rider, took me up the hill for a ride and it was absolutely amazing.

“I had a smile on my face so big, it didn’t wear off for a long time. It was then I realized what they could do, the professionals that they were and I felt the security of that.”

And just in case Kannan wasn’t convinced,

Becker called him about a month later to invite him to join some CRIS volunteers and several other disabled participants for an eight-day camping trip to Bowron Lakes in the Cariboo.

“I had no idea how it was going to happen, but I had every confidence they could do it,” Kannan said.

“I portaged in my wheelchair, they portaged the kayaks back and forth, we got into the water, we tented at night.

“I didn’t know it was possible, at first it took some time to figure things out, but after that everything seemed natural.

“We were doing what able-bodied people were doing. The experience was 100 per cent.”

Inspired by his wife Lynnette’s sister, who had Down syndrome, Becker first hatched the concept for CRIS 13 years ago.

With a love of the outdoors and an interest in the well-being of others,

Becker went to work on providing outdoor recreational opportunities for people with disabilities.

In the beginning, he had just a kayak and was loaned a trail rider for hiking, all the while running the operation out of the Becker household. In the first year, CRIS served three clients.

“It was based on the idea that there were no limitations on activities in the outdoors for people with disabilities, and no

limitations as far as the geographical area goes,” said Becker, who is a firefighter with West Kelowna Fire Rescue.

“There were no barriers. The same holds true today.”

Since those humble first days, CRIS has grown in leaps and bounds and now serves as many as 100 people with disabilities per year— from two to 92 years old—both inside and outside the Okanagan.

The activities include kayaking, cycling, hiking, paddle boarding, rock climbing, cross country skiing, and snowshoeing, among several others.

In addition to the Okanagan, destinations include trips to Alberta, Vancouver Island and into the U.S. Along with two paid staff members, CRIS Adaptive Adventures functions largely on the work of volunteers who number as many as 200, with about 30 of those donating their time on a regular basis.

The society’s stock of equipment has also grown to the point where CRIS now stores several pieces at a facility in Mission Park, provided by the Central Okanagan Regional District.

The range of people CRIS services on a monthly basis covers a broad spectrum—those with brain injuries, developmental disabilities and physical impairments, among them.

Helping make people’s lives better Limitations from A3 Based on its quiet beginnings, Becker is both humbled and pleased with the progress CRIS has made and the impact it continues to have on people’s lives.

“It is amazing,” said Becker, the president of CRIS. “I never started this really looking at full potential, I didn’t know what I was getting into.

“To the extent is has grown is astronomical, and the recognition that the association has received from so many agencies. We’ve reached so many people, we’re getting inquiries form overseas,” he continued.

“A lot of people consider the organization a front runner in adaptive recreation and breaking down barriers for people with disabilities. You’re so busy doing it you don’t really think of it that way.

But it’s nice to see.”

When it comes to giving thousands of hours of his spare time each year to enrich the lives of others,

Becker doesn’t see it as any kind of sacrifice.

In fact, Becker insists he benefits from the experience just as much as those he’s providing the service to.

“To see people’s reactions and the smiles it brings to them, to see people’s lives change in front of you, it’s way more powerful than people think…it’s almost addictive,” he said.

“When you take someone to the top of the mountain, the first time they’ve ever been to a park or something, their energy feeds you.

“You may be giving your time, but the reality is you are getting something out it too, and I think that drives everybody who’s involved.”

While the original idea was born from Becker’s vision, he’s hesitant to take much credit for the continued growth and success CRIS has enjoyed, particularly over the last several years.

“I am only one person of a network of people that make the whole ship move,” he said.

“It’s the network of people that support the cause and support the

“It’s pretty awesome when you think of the scope of it all.”

Dawn Whiddefield, the executive director for CRIS, said while clients with disabilities are the inspiration, it’s the many dedicated, selfless volunteers who are the lifeblood of the local society.

And she says, they all seem to have something in common.

“They tend to be hardworking, outdoors types with an adventure spirit, respect for themselves and the people they work with and the environment they’re in,” said Whiddefield who has been with CRIS since 2012.

“There’s a culture of respect and adventure that’s been created (at CRIS) and we’re very proud of that.”

As for the future path of CRIS Adaptive Adventures, Troy Becker believes the sky is the limit.

Still, like any non-profit organization, Becker said funding will dictate, in large part, the direction the organization will take in the coming years.

Currently, clients pay only a small portion of the expenses required to carry out each outdoor excursion.

“It’s all funding-based, so that’s always your No. 1 hindrance,” said Becker.

“If you made people pay the full pop, that would be unrealistic for them, so we have to continue to find creative and affordable ways to do what we do. But I think where the organization is going, and because it’s come so far already, it has an absolutely unbelievable amount of potential.”

Regardless of what the future holds for the local society, Anand Kannan knows firsthand the dramatic difference CRIS can make in people’s lives.

“Making this available to people, it’s a real lifechanger,” said Kannan.

“You get a smile back on your face. These are the people that have the gear and professionalism, they’re firefighters and rescue people, you know you’re in good hands.

“They help make people’s lives better.”

Act of defiance against armed man described in trial Kathy Michaels STAFF REPORTER

Janice Snell jumped into the passenger seat of her PT Cruiser, grabbed the keys from the ignition and had almost closed the driver’s side door when she was stopped in her tracks.

A burly man carrying a sawed off shotgun held the door open, and got inside.

“Give me the keys.

Give me the car,” he said, twice, she told the court Thursday during testimony in the trial of Michael Ellis, who is facing more than 20 charges including five counts of attempted murder, several counts of robbery and weapons offences “He wasn’t shouting.. he was demanding, but soft spoken.”

To both questions she said “no” and even went so far as to gently nudge

the gunman in the direction of the door. The keys, she said, were tucked under her leg.

The strangely bold act of defiance didn’t end badly, all things considered.

The man, who was identified in court as Michael Ellis, merely got out of Snell’s car and back into the minivan.

Two others who were with Ellis—a man and a woman—also disappeared at that time.

Snell said she wasn’t sure who in the trio was driving, although she presumed it was Ellis.

Not long after that stop around 20 kilometres south of Lake Okanagan Resort, he’s alleged to have car-jacked a different person, more successfully.

Crown Counsel has brought a number of witnesses to the stand to attest to their view of Ellis and his two accomplices

on the wild July 31, 2012, ride that started in West Kelowna, moved down Westside Road and ended in a shootout with police near Vernon.

Between flaggers, fellow motorists, pedestrians and firefighters, it seems that dozens of eyes got a bird’s eye view of one of the most high stakes police chases ever to have played out in the valley.

And, as each of them offers their account, Ellis sits in the prisoner’s box, sipping water and listening to their memories, seemingly without much interest.

When Snell identified Ellis as the man who got into her car, he almost nodded a greeting to her.

One witness, however, seemed to get a less friendly reception.

Savana Hoover was a flagger on the day of the chase, and offered her re-

collection of events on Thursday.

She testified that she was given notice of a minivan speeding down the road, near the fire site she was watching with several other flaggers.

She got orders to get off the road, so she did.

From there, she saw the minivan pause, before speeding by.

She had a brief, but apparently lasting view of a man she identified as Ellis. “That’s the part that scared me,” she said. “He glared at me like he was looking through me.”

His expression, she said, was completely blank. When questioned about how she could be sure that it was Ellis, she explained the memory is very much alive in her head.

“When an image plays over and over, you get a good look at it,” she told the court.

Water board terms extended to 4 years

Jennifer Smith STAFF REPORTER

The Okanagan Basin Water Board has given its water stewardship council a third mandate, extending the term to four years, in line with the new four-year terms for municipal councils.

The stewardship council is a technical advisory committee with experts up and down the valley converging to help ensure as much information on water, water use, and water research as possible is provided to government decision makers.

Thursday afternoon,

the group approved three committees to deal with groundwater, water pricing and environmental flow needs; and they will meet to set further recommendations for projects to pursue.

The group’s flagship projects—those already underway—are: • investigating source water and working toward providing better source water protection • working on water governance and providing the information needed as the province writes the regulations intended to enact the new Water Sustainability Act

th

• writing a Wetlands Strategy, compiling all data on Okanagan wetlands and setting a course for the best way to preserve these sensitive habitats This final project proved a point of discussion.

“Wetlands are a subsection of a broader issue, so we may want to broaden the discussion to have land use and other land use issues discussed,” said Nelson Jatel, OBWB water stewardship director.

Thursday’s meeting

touched on whether a shift from dealing solely with the wetlands to land use in general might not be prudent given the wide variety of issues land use creates, from development to agriculture to water treatment.

Hoover left the witness box after a brief cross examination, but not without having another un-

usual moment with Ellis.

As she walked away, Hoover claimed Ellis muttered a profanity at

her. Outside the courtroom, she said it wasn’t unexpected.

Documentary about Kelowna paddler seeks social media funding Kevin Parnell STAFF REPORTER

Kelowna filmmaker Carey Missler says the next week will determine whether his full length feature movie called The Paddler will be able to be completed.

Missler has been shooting The Paddler for the past year, looking at water conservation by following the journey of Bob Purdy, the Kelowna man who has been on his stand up paddle board every day for over 1,300 days.

To complete the film

and secure enough money for a distribution deal, Missler has gone to a Kickstarter campaign trying to raise enough money to finish the movie.

The campaign has set a goal of raising $9,000 by Sept. 22. The money will be used to complete the film and secure its distribution.

“The movie will not go on if we don’t receive the funding,” said Missler.

“We need it to complete the film.”

So far 71 people have made donations totaling over $5,500 and with

Mel Wiebe and

The Royal Heirs at Rutland Gospel Tabernacle 410 Leathead Road

just more than a week to the close of the Kickstarter campaign, Missler and Purdy appear close to getting the necessary funding to complete the project.

It began about a year ago when Missler was drawn to Purdy’s goal of raising awareness to change the way we live on the planet by paddle-boarding every day.

Purdy has been going for more than three years now and Missler is digging into the issues surrounding water and conservation.

The film explores the issues through Purdy and other interviews with subjects such as well known native artist Roy Vickers as well as well known Canadian surfers and more.

“It talks about the importance of water on the planet,” said Purdy.

“Carey has assembled an incredible crew and we have so much we want to share. It takes an incredible amount of money to make movie of this calibre.”

Missler has negotiated a distribution deal but the funds from the Kickstarter campaign will seal the deal.

If the $9,000 isn’t raised, the movie makers won’t receive any of the funds donated.

The campaign closes Sept. 22.

letter of the week Too late for one man to give blood

B

To the editor: I would love to donate blood, but I’m not allowed to.

I was an airline pilot until I retired at 60 years of age, and by law we were not allowed to give blood while actively flying, probably a very good precaution.

So when I retired, I went down to donate and was asked when I had last given blood.

I replied never, because of my occupation, and was informed that without a donation history prior to reaching 60, I would not ever be allowed to give “the gift of life”.

This becomes appalling when I learned that while I “snowbird” in Arizona, after answering many questions (required each time one donates) I am allowed to donate blood, and do so regularly.

Kind of a shame that Canada won’t allow me to do the same.

Songwriter’s strike tweets lack lyrical quality Y ou know you’re doing something terribly wrong when the guy who wrote Baby Beluga starts heckling you in the Twitterverse.

Raffi Cavoukian, a troubadour beloved by all Canadian children, is PO’d at the provincial government and he’s taken to Twitter for the last couple of weeks to vent his frustrations.

It’s not completely surprising, I suppose. Raffi is political and quite crafty with words.

My one concern with his involvement is focused merely on the fact there’s no lyrical quality to his tweets.

When constrained to 126 characters, Raffi’s bon mots take on a bluntness

that I’m not quite sold on.

In response to a Premier Christy Clark’s tweet about getting schools up and running, for example, Raffi Kathy wrote: “@christyclarkMichaels bc nobody believes you.”

Couldn’t he have pulled from past works and been a bit more pithy?

Perhaps something like; “It’s no baloney, it ain’t a phony—but you are @ christyclarkbc. #bananaphone.”

Same message, more of the sing-songiness that this drag of a labour dispute is in need of.

Clark wasn’t the only one in Raffi’s crosshairs. He also took on Education Minister Peter Fassbender, who for

KATHARTIC

the record, should not be mistaken for the lovely actor Michael Fassbender, which I’ve done in all of my first drafts in some sort of Freudian keystroking slip. But I digress.

Back to Raffi, who said: “@FassbenderMLA you’re failing BC’s children for whom #bced is a basic right • you won’t put prov economy in deficit?—false issue.”

I’d suggest, “Have you ever been a snake, baking up stories about deficits and cakes? #downbythebay.”

OK. That one doesn’t work at all.

Point is, this is a man who can write words that can stay with you for decades, and he’s not capitalizing on that ability.

Or maybe he’s just not able to get lyrical about such a dispiriting issue.

There are no winners in this dispute and there’s barely a worthwhile bat-

tle cry.

A Whitney Houston style wail about “believing children are the future” is usually easy to find on picket lines or in parent groups, but as adults we all know that there’s more to this issue than the children, whether we like it or not.

Trouble is this process is so ridiculously flawed. There’s so much misinformation that even my teacher friends have admitted they’re in the dark. They’re making a stand “for kids” but what is happening at the bargaining table is completely beyond them.

But should it be? Should it be obscured from any of us? As taxpaying citizens with a vested interest in future generations, shouldn’t we all be made See Michaels A11

▼ TRANSIT

Bus route in Mission needs changing

WE’RE HERE TO HELP

To the editor: I know that the recent changes to transit in Kelowna are meant to help people get anywhere and everywhere a lot quicker and be way more convenient than before but, who are we kidding here, Victoria (B.C. Transit) With (B.C. Transit) always calling the shots for where bus routes are meant go in every town (including Kelowna) outside the Greater Vancouver Regional District, sometimes the thing that is left is overall common sense.

As it’s the city that puts in the bus stops (Victoria just sends them the signs and an order to do it) nobody at City Hall

FOOTHILLS CENTRE FOR CHANGE Located in the Beautiful Okanagan Valley www.foothillscentre.com

really wants to hear about peoples opinion saying “why not this route by this way instead of that way.”

Using common sense, I think, the No. 8 University should be re-routed by a couple of options to help those seniors who are at the rest homes and complexes between Okanagan College and Mission Park.

The first option is to keep the old routing, where the No. 8 services up Casorso to Lanfranco, and then onto Lakeshore to Mission Park and then as per the new change, via tKelowna General Hospital and have it go straight through the light at KLO onto Pandosy.

The next stop towards

UBCO would then be the same one as the No. 1 out

by Kelowna Cycle at the edge of where all the Tutt Street businesses back onto.

The second option wuld again see the No. 8 go up Casorso to Lanfranco but have the city put two stops on Richter Street and have the bus turn right off of Lanfranco onto Richter, stop outside the apartment complex that is closest to the Tim Horton’s and thengo past the first crosswalk, and have the bus stop outside the Creekside complex behind Urban Fare (just before the second crosswalk).

There there would be enough room for the bus

to pull out and go into the left lane to turn left from Richter Street onto KLO, to access the “downtown only” bus stop at Lakeview Market. It could then turn right onto Pandosy and begin making its way out to UBCO. The main reason I thought this would make sense is that between the college and Lakeview Market, there are no stops for anything as it is so close to the the No. 1 stop after the college, at the Shell gas station on Lakeshore.

My proposed route would not have it take three minutes longer to help those who need it the most and, at the same time, still get from point A

to point B without interfering with the route plan or the overall structure of the (bus) timetable.

When you look at the timetable map, there clearly is a marked line (altho grey) that shows you a bus diverting up Casorso and Lanfranco (to Richter and not Lakeshore of all places) andback onto KLO. If seniors and area residences contact Victoria; then we may be able to change it sooner rather than later and not have it cost a massive amount to reproduce timetables for a map detour.

▼ SCHOOLS

Teachers’ labour dispute needs to be settled now To the editor: Who has the right to deprive our children of their education?

We need to get the children back into the classrooms now.

B.C.’s education minister, Peter Fassbender, went on television recently and suggested to meet the demands of the teachers’ salary demands, it would necessitate tak-

ing funding away from health care or other publicly funded areas.

He showed no shame in accepting his recent raise in salary. I wonder where they found the money for that?

Every day that the teachers stay out of the classroom, the government is saving money.

(Editor’s note: The government has said it

will give parents of children under 14 $40 for each day the strike continues to help defer the cost of caring for their children during the labour dispute. It says that money would come from the amount being saved by the teachers not being at work.)

Teachers, on the other hand, are losing money.

Teachers now have only

their savings to rely on.

It’s not fair to compare B.C. teachers’ salaries to those paid to teachers in other provinces, unless we consider the cost of living.

B.C. is one of the most expensive provinces to live in.

Class size is an important issue, especially if the classes are forced to have special needs students included. These stu-

dents require special oneon-one attention, and that necessitates specialized instructors.

Immediate action needs to be taken to get our schools functional again.

Labour unions should come to the defence of all labourers and not serve only a special group.

Sign vandalism upsetting for MADD group the

-Line Enter On ws.com apne kelownac Contests Click on

The Central Okangan chapter of Mothers Against Drunks Drivers was disappointed to learn that four Report Impaired Boating signs have been ripped off their posts at three boat launch locations.

“We are very disappointed that someone would rip down signs that encourage public safety,”, said Carol Fazekas, the Central Okanagan MADD chapter president.

“We work very hard to educate the public about the dangers of impaired driving and impaired boating and for someone to make a joke out of this by tearing down these signs is upsetting.”

“As a charitable organization our resources are limited for projects like this so we are disappointed to see signage destroyed that we feel is an important message to get out in the public.”

The Report Impaired Boating signs were recently installed at six boat launches in the City of

Kelowna.

MADD Canada’s Campaign 911 program is on lakes and waterways, reminding everyone that operating a boat while impaired is just as dangerous—and just as illegal— as driving while impaired.

Alcohol is a factor in about 40 per cent of the estimated 150 recreational boating fatalities that occur in Canada each year.

Alcohol diminishes judgment, reduces motor skills and balance, slows reaction times, reduces depth perception, and accelerates hypothermia.

Trying to operate a boat while impaired endangers the operator, passengers and other boaters on the water.

Despite the risks, 37 per cent of boaters admit to consuming alcohol every time they boat, and 66 per cent say they drink alcohol sometimes when boating.

“Alcohol consumption affects judgement, reduces motor skills and balance and slows reac-

FOUR OF these Report Impaired Boating signs put up by the MADD chapter of the Central Okanagan have been vandalized. tion times, and the effects of sun and waves can heighten those effects,” said Fazekas.

“That is why it is so important that operators and passengers boat sober.”

Generally, boaters who are impaired are more likely to go too fast for the waterway, operate vessels in a dangerous or careless manner, and forget to turn on running lights or other required night-time equipment, or openly consume alcohol while underway.

Anyone who sees a boater they think is impaired can call 911 or their local police marine unit.

Try to have the boat licence number, name and description of the boat, the direction of travel and any location information or specific landmarks.

“Our chapter will work with the city to have these signs reinstalled soon,” she said.

“MADD Central Okanagan Chapter wants to continue to remind the public to be safe on the waterways and not boat impaired; we also want to remind the public to call 911 if you see a suspected impaired boater.”

MADD Canada is a national, charitable organization that is committed to stopping impaired driving and supporting the victims of this violent crime.

With volunteer-driven groups in more than 100 communities across Canada, MADD Canada aims to offer support services to victims, heighten awareness of the dangers of impaired driving and to prevent injuries on our roads.

Phase 3 of Westbank Cemetery approved West Kelowna council has agreed to amend the 2014 -23 disrtrict financial plan to include $65,000 to proceed with detailed plans and construction drawings for Phase 3 of the Westbank Cemetery upgrade.

The upgrade strategy was approved by council in 2012. Since then, the facility has been improved with significant landscaping and the installation of columbariums and mausoleums, intended to ensure continued viability of the formerly-dry cemetery.

Phase 3 of the cemetery improvements would include the development of the lower pine grove area to accommodate the addition of another columbarium garden and in ground burial plots.

▼ WETLAND STRATEGY

Ambitious projects lined up Jennifer Smith STAFF REPORTER

The Okanagan Wetlands Strategy the Okanagan Basin Water Board is overseeing will foster three projects intended to improve or restore wetlands before March, members of the Water Stewardship Council were told Thursday.

It’s a highly ambitious target as the project has only moved from the data collection phase to the action phase a week ago, leaving just over six months to identify the projects to tackle and complete the mission.

“Those projects will probably be some of the simpler ones were there are partners in place who are ready to go,” said Jillian Tamblyn of Water’s Edge Consulting, the contractor spearheading this phase.

The Wetland Strategy is a grand

undertaking pulling together as many forms of data and information as possible to provide a clear picture of the number and quality of wetland habitats remaining in the Okanagan.

It will identify which habitats are at risk and set a course to restore these environments in logical order.

The initial three projects will be followed by three more in 2016.

The term “project” is loose in this case. There will be projects geared more toward policy work and others geared more to communication initiatives, like signage, in addition to actual habitat restoration.

The findings of the work thus far are alarming.

After pulling in data sources from government and academia, interviews and photographs, the

group determined there are 3587 wetlands from the United States border to the edge of the Similkameen Valley and up through the North Okanagan.

Some 88 per cent of those were determined to be unprotect.

What was and was not considered protected within the definitions of the study is complicated as even wetlands contained with in conserved parkland were considered at risk if other forms of land use within the immediate vicinity put the health of the habitat in question.

The Okanagan Wetlands Strategy is a multi-phase undertaking with the BC Wildlife Federation, the Regional District of the Central Okanagan and the Okanagan Basin Water Board. jsmith@kelownacapnews.com

Grape Escape ride fundraiser for MS society The 5th annual Okanagan Grape Escape presented by RONA will have cyclists sip, savour and cycle to end MS this weekend.

The Scotiabank MS Bike Tour is the largest fundraiser for the Okanagan chapter of the Multiple Sclerosis Society of Canada.

This year, more than half of the participants are coming from outside of the Okanagan, all with the goal to help end MS. The event starts and finishes at RONA, 1711 Springfield Rd., on Saturday and Sunday for the two-day bike tour.

The festivities start each morning at 8 a.m. with the cyclists leaving RONA at 9:30 a.m.

Traveling on bike routes and rural roads they will visit a select group of wineries, farms, a distillery and a brew house in Kelowna and West Kelowna.

Each participant is required to raise a minimum of $300 but many surpass this level raising over $2,000 each.

The funds raised at this event are used to support our mission; to be a

leader in finding a cure for multiple sclerosis and enabling people affected by

MS to enhance their quality of life.

Which is why I am confused on why he seems to think he needs a slate to get elected again.

James was collateral damage in a war started by the contrived Four Change group during the last municipal election.

The supporters of Four Change decided to work to turf out four sitting members of the 2008-11 council—myself along with Michele Rule, Kevin Craig and Angela Reid.

Four Change’s goal was to replace we four with their slate of four candidates—Colin Basran, Gerry Zimmermann, Gail Given and Carol Gran.

To a large degree they succeeded, as ironically Gran was the only one of their four candidates not to get elected.

Last week, Gran admitted that she was one of the founders and organizers of Four Change but suggested that the group’s focus and strategy got

What initiatives to provide a healthier, happier and perhaps wealthier community will be cancelled in the wake of an ill begotten catchy campaign promise?

There is folly in promising a four-year freeze on taxes without any idea of pending future needs, emergencies, and/or opportunities.

Delaying taxes for four years may sound great today, but what are its implications in four years or longer when services and infrastructures are not maintained?

There’s a promise guaranteed to please your children.

Theoretical and popular promises are swell, however, reality is another beast.

I do not know Mr. Olson at all so I have no thoughts on his role, while I am familiar with Carol Gran and know Graeme James well.

“I taught for three years at OUC in the early ‘90s,” said Maciel.

“I’ve watched the business program and the institution evolve over the years.

“I’m excited to be part of the governance of an organization that has such a rich history in the region and I look forward to participating in decisions that will shape its course for the coming years.”

“I think there are great things ahead for the college and am happy to be a part of it.”

“There are many opportunities for partnerships right now, between schools and other organizations,” said Derickson, who is following his Bachelor of Arts in Political Science (2012, UBCO) with a Master’s of Business Administration at SFU. “This is a very exciting time to be involved in the governance of Okanagan College.”

Okanagan’s own xeriscape maven shares her wisdom Judie Steeves CONTRIBUTOR

Growing up in a family of gardeners, Gwen Steele had her own garden at the age of five, triggering a lifelong passion for growing things.

In 1992, working for Burnett’s Garden Centre in Kelowna, customers would often ask which plants make water work best, growing in the Okanagan’s hot summer sun with a minimum of water.

She took the queries to heart and began researching. Out of that research came a list which she carried in her pocket to answer questions at work, and a new term

Preventing gang activity in BC ▾ MYTH: As a gangsters girlfriend or wife you’ll have everything you want: Reality: Even gangsters’ girlfriends and wives are the target of violence and retribution, with women associated in some way to gangsters murdered, some in front of their children.

Over the past several years there have been a number of women associated in some way to gangsters murdered, some in front of their children.

for gardening with nature—“xeriscape.”

“I have always loved helping people garden successfully. It connects you to the earth and feeds your spirit. The Principles of Xeriscape provide an easy guide to success.”

Steele says.

“Personally, I want to get the maximum benefit from my gardening time, so I use plants that do well without a lot of care.

“A plant requiring extra care doesn’t get to stay in my garden. Also, I’ve always been keen on the environment and living in harmony with nature.”

Although conserving water was not a consideration decades ago when

the valley was less populated, she says, “I hated dragging hoses, so xeriscape suited me better for many reasons.”

Another benefit of creating colourful gardens using plants that thrive under local conditions turned out to be their resistance to disease and insect pests.

“It’s magical to watch an infestation of aphids disappear once the ladybugs move in,” she notes.

For more than 20 years, Steele has continued her quest to learn which plants do best in our valley’s challenging climate.

Her xeriscape research has included growing plants and recording how they grow, once established, with little more water than falls naturally during an Okanagan

website (www.okanaganxeriscape.org) rich with photos and details about plants and techniques for growing in the dry Okanagan.

With support from the Okanagan Basin Water Board, the group also created the ‘Un-H2O” xeriscape demonstration garden in front of Kelowna’s H2O Fitness Centre.

One of the suggestions of the Water Board’s Make Water Work program is to change-out at least a portion of the water-thirsty lawn surrounding our home or business with drought-tolerant turf and/or native and low-water variety plants.

Alternatives include ground covers such as junipers or thyme; mulched shrubbery such as ninebark, potentilla, saskatoons and lilacs; ornamental grasses; or colourful perennials.

“Fall is an ideal time to plant,” says Steele, but she cautions that it’s important to group plants by their water needs.

“Don’t add a drought tolerant plant to a garden bed that contains plants requiring regular watering. Neither will be happy or healthy.”

For more information on turf-removal and xeriscape, visit the OXA website or sign up for an upcoming workshop.

Details at www.okanaganxeriscape.org. *** With 24 per cent of all Okanagan water used on household lawns and gardens, and less water available per person than anywhere in Canada, valley residents are encouraged to reduce outdoor water use.

Make Water Work is an initiative of the Okanagan Basin Water Board and its Okanagan WaterWise program.

Of course, you would want to invest in a good set of winter tires.

Beyond the city limits, out on the highway, heading south it handled the road well, with enough get up and go for good passing power when needed.

It’s quite roomy for a small car. There’s room for three in the back seat as long as those passengers are not of a larger body type, if I may delicately put it that way. If you are of a larger body type, there is plenty of room in the trunk, if you desperately need a ride at that exact moment. (Just kidding.) But it does tell you the trunk is also roomy!

Verdict: No complaints. For a sub-compact, you get great tech options, great fuel economy, in a car that doesn’t feel like you are driving something as inexpensive as it is. It’s fun and zippy for driving around town or highway driving. If you need a small car as a

daily commuter or it’s your second car to accommodate a bigger SUV or truck, I would recommend taking one out for a test drive to see if it fits for you in what you are looking for in a car. The Fiesta right now for me is tops in the subcompact class.

Looking at the specs, it doesn’t seem too impressive.

A 1.6-litre engine, 116 horsepower, 100 lb-ft of torque, a 0-100 km/h time of less than nine seconds, 14-inch tires.

Heck, my bicycle has bigger rubbers! OK, maybe not.

But 25 years ago, the Mazda Miata was a product of those numbers. It wasn’t necessarily endowed in the engine department.

However, the two-door roadster did have everything else on its side. A sleek design, a peppy personality, a brilliant red coat and something that other cars have strived to achieve in their two-door roadsters over the years but have fallen short—longevity.

At a quarter century old, the Miata/MX-5 has achieved incredible success.

Close to a million of these drop tops have been sold worldwide. The Miata/MX5 holds a Guinness Book of World Records title of as most successful two-seat convertible roadster in history. Not bad for a car that packs in so many thrills for under $30K. Over the years, the front-engine, rear-wheel drive car continued to encourage the masses to drive topless.

Whether through a rag or hardtop, this specimen of automotive manufacturing and design allowed people to feel the proverbial wind in their hair within seconds.

I felt it as a kid as my mom was lucky enough to be one of the first Miata owners in BC when they came out in 1989—a red one, of course—and took me out for rides frequently.

Those memories have stayed with me over the decades, though I’ve been able to form my own bond with the car.

Not only have we (meaning, the various MX-5s I’ve driven in the last in 11 years) put down thousands of kilometres together, we’ve also been paired up at the Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca for the Skip Barber Racing School experience a couple of times.

Nostalgia is one popular element of its appeal, but there’s an undeniable fun factor.

Whether racing it on a track or just taking it to the grocery store, the first turn you carve in it will rope you in like an infomercial in the wee hours of the night when you can’t sleep.

But in the case of the MX-5, you won’t have any buyer’s remorse.

Fast-forward through the years and you’re now viewing the fourth generation MX-5.

And what better way to welcome the roadster to the stage here in California than via a little band called Duran Duran.

And through a live satellite stream that was broadcast here, and abroad in Spain and Japan.

The reasoning? Both the English music group and the roadster came into popularity in the ’80s and continued to succeed and grow in status over the decades. Besides, “Rio” is an incredibly catchy tune to dance to.

That said the MX-5 has a new, eye-catching look to it. Not many specs have been released though I can tell you this: it’s lower, wider, and sheds 100 kg in the making.

It also embodies the KODO or “Soul of Motion” design language.

This two-seater also comes with sexy character lines from its four corners.

Furthermore, up front, you’ll notice its headlights that look like they’re eyeing its prey; unlike the first generation’s pop up/down headlights that were more than welcoming.

Like with all-new models of anything legendary, there will be a polarizing reception.

Some might think it’s too radical. Some might fall immediately in love with it. And some will wait to drive it to make up their mind.

Regardless of the way it looks—which certainly helps its cause—it’s really about how you feel on the road, behind the wheel, and when you tuck it in at night.

More details about the MX-5 are scheduled to be released at this year’s Paris Auto Show.

Either way, I can’t wait to drive it. www.mazda.ca alexandra.straub@drivewaybc.ca The Lowdown The 2015 WRX has a starting MSRP of $29,995 whereas the WRX STI has a starting MSRP of $37,995.

They crash and smash many cars in Hollywood.

A few months ago we looked at five dramatic destructions here are some more to make you weep.

1964 Aston DB5 Martin (“Skyfall”): In the rebooted James Bond world of Daniel Craig, Bond is seen to have won the DB5 in a card game in the movie Casino Royale. The film’s villain, played by Javier Bardem, puts its nose-mounted machine guns to good use in an attempt to repel an assault. Sadly, Bond’s Aston is strafed into Swiss cheese. Happily, the car

to look like a real DB5.

1985 Corvette (“The Big Lebowski”): A 14-year-old kid named Larry Sellers has likely stolen Jeffrey “The Dude” Lebowski’s (Jeff Bridges’) battered Ford Torino, possibly containing a large sum in ransom money. The Dude and his extremely anger management-challenged bowling buddy Walter Sobchak (John Goodman) head for little Larry’s house. On the way in, they’re dismayed to find a red 1985 Corvette parked in front of the house and they figure the kid has already started to

1941 Lincoln Continental (“The Godfather”): You could always count on the hot temper of Sonny Corleone. The Barzini Family certainly did.

Ill-named but still a luxury car for real Differing definitions of luxury in the automotive market are truly reflected in the eyes of the beholder.

To one person it might be having all the refinements and gadgets available in a modern car accompanied with a smooth and quiet ride.

To another buyer it might just be about the name on the front of the car, letting all to see it that the owner has “made it” establishing a certain status in society.

For many it’s a combination of both.

Enter the new Kia K900 luxury sedan from Kia. It has all the refinement and features found in cars with a longer pedigree in the luxury space but this car offers it at a discount.

Then the name on the car comes into play. Is the Kia K900 a car anyone aspires to own?

name, it begs the question is this a dog? No, it is a fullsize car about the same size as a 7-series from BMW or S-Class from Mercedes Benz.

The K900 is based on the same platform as the Hyundai Equus but differs in price and content. For a full-sized car with limo-like dimensions, the K900 starts at a remarkable $49,995 for the V6 model and $60,995 for the V6 premium model. The top V8 model is $69,995.

The styling is strong, especially the top V8 model seen here with LED headlamps and taillights and very North American looking chrome multi-spoke wheels.

The rear doors are huge and Kia has done a good job of keeping the proportions of the car in check while grafting Kia’s signature Tiger Nose grille. The rear bumper

The automatic lock and unlock feature on the outside

Another stumbling block is the lack of all wheel drive (AWD). In this segment almost all vehicles sold come with AWD, in fact most companies only offer it.

Enjoy the pleasures of a flower garden I have just come in from a delightful hour puttering in one of my large flower gardens.

It was a meditative break from working at the computer.

There were lots of pollinators to watch as I removed dead flowers.

GARDENING WITH NATURE

Lovely scents filled the garden when I sheared back lavender, sage, thyme and hyssop herbs.

It’s interesting to see what plants have produced babies. Many will be potted up for OXA’s spring plant sale May 2 in the unH2O Garden.

I deliberately leave plants to go to seed in the garden if I want babies.

It’s an easy way to propagate them. The trick is to recognize the seedling plants and not weed them out. Some plants are just too eager to reproduce themselves. I try to cut off their dead flowers before seeds germinate.

I love collecting interesting seed heads for winter bouquets to mix in with ornamental grasses.

Large poppy seed heads are like a sculpture and look elegant as a bouquet on their own.

The seeds are very viable so I avoid shaking them in the garden as I don’t want thousands next year. Jerusalem sage (Phlomis russeliana) and blue false indigo (Baptisia australis) both have a relatively short (three week) bloom time in spring but have fascinating seed heads/pods and good foliage so they get a place in my gardens.

At the end of June I cut back some catnip plants (Nepeta Walker’s Low) that had been

blooming since late April and were covered in seed heads. The plants have re-grown nicely and are blooming again.

The ones I didn’t cut back continued to have some bloom—enough for bees to still visit.

The plants now have strong regrowth in the centre so today I cut the fading spring growth all around the outside of the base of the plant just leaving the new centre growth. That improved their looks, although they are much smaller than the ones cut earlier.

To get the most out of my perennials I rely on my favourite reference: ‘The Well-Tended Perennial Garden’ by Tracy diSabato-Aust.

It’s my ‘perennial bible.’ I strongly recommend it if you love to grow perennials and want to know how to best care for each variety.

Right now I’m really enjoying some giant annuals. Sunflowers have seeded themselves and done exceptionally well.

KATHY KIELISZEWSKI/CONTRIBUTOR

OWEN WIDDIS prepares to jump from a cliff into the ocean from a rocky cliff in Ganavan Bay on the outskirts of Oban, a seaside town on Scotland’s western coastline.

Cliff jumping all in a day’s fun in Scotland ‘‘ Kathy Kieliszewski CONTRIBUTOR

We sat among strangers, stuffed into wet suits and squeezed into a van headed toward a beach.

No one was quite sure what to expect when we arrived.

The web site had used words like “climb,” “scramble,” “swim” and “jump.” It added: “A hair-raising and spine-tingling journey of exploration.”

We were going coasteering.

Never heard of coasteering? Neither had we until I started digging

around the Internet as I planned our family’s summer vacation to Scotland.

My husband, two boys and I would tour castles, visit tiny villages and eat haggis, but most of all we wanted to experience Scotland’s nature and geography to its fullest extent—the cloud-kissed mountains, sheep-dotted glens, legendary lochs and rugged coastline.

We were headed to the western highlands near Oban, a coastal town filled with bed-and-breakfasts and seafood.

Think Charlevoix, but instead of whitefish, there was haddock, and where

we have Petoskey stones, they have rocky cliffs.

Coasteering originated in the United Kingdom and combines sea swimming, rock climbing and cliff jumping. Yes, cliff jumping.

On the travel site TripAdvisor, I had stumbled on Stramash, an outdoor adventure company on the outskirts of Oban.

They offer a series of what they call Adventure Days that include things like sea kayaking, sailing, archery, mountaineering and coasteering.

When we arrived at Stramash’s office, we met Rob, our guide for the day.

He was young, tall, muscular and built for jumping off cliffs.

I am over 40, mildly athletic and afraid of heights. And yet here I was in a wet suit, life jacket and helmet so I could jump off a cliff.

Tucked northwest of Oban is Ganavan Bay and a crescent-shaped patch of beach abutted by steep cliffs. This is where we headed in that musty-smelling van.

It wasn’t until I plodded into the cold ocean water that I wondered, “What was I thinking?”

Thankfully, the wet suit did its job—it kept me

warm from the icy ocean water. We started swimming toward the cliffs.

I don’t know if it was the weight of the wet suit or the buoyancy of the life jacket, but swim-

ming was difficult. I was last to reach the cliffs and completely out of breath.

Again, “What was I thinking?”

My younger son stayed close to his dad, just to be safe.

This was, after all, an ocean, filled with lots of unknowns, not a Michigan lake. My confident older son, a teenager, didn’t even look back to see how the rest of us were doing.

One by one, we leapt Rob explained the proper way to climb. And fall. Grab hold of the black rocks, not the greenish ones, those are cov-

ered in razor sharp barnacles, and when you start to fall, push away from the rocks.

As we began to climb, I said, “I’m not going to be able to do this.”

Yet, I did it. I’d find my footing and hoist myself up, around and over the rocky crags.

Now it was time to jump off the cliffs. There would be multiple jumps, each one higher—and harder—than the last one.

You aren’t supposed to jump as much as you are to leap. Rob demon-

Not practised in the art of leaping, I couldn’t de-

The next jump was about 15 feet. Boosted by the success of the last jump, I didn’t hesitate.

However, the final jump was 25 feet, almost as tall as a three-storey building.

first to go. He had been pretty brave the whole afternoon, but even he hesitated before jumping.

After he emerged from the dark green water, he let out a yell and waved up at us.

The other mother in the group stood just to the side of me looking down and said, “We’d regret it if we didn’t do it, right?”

“Right,” I said, with zero confidence in my voice. I’d rather have a little regret than a broken neck.

After one more internal pep talk, I was leaping, holding my nose, off the cliff.

The water comes sooner than you’d expect and the impact is harder than you’d imagine.

The rush of water and sound is amazing and scary. Thanks to my life vest, I popped out of the water like a fishing bobber that just lost the catch of the day.

Later in the evening we drove back to the beach as the sun was setting behind the islands out past Ganavan Bay and we walked the dry path above the ocean and cliffs to where we had jumped.

Scotland offers many bike routes Kathy Kieliszewski

We were taking a 25-mile round-trip through Glen Lonan along route 78 from Taynuilt to Oban and back.

Scotland boasts a number of wonderful bike routes as part of the larger National Cycle Network, which includes over 14,000 miles of bike-friendly paths and roads throughout the United Kingdom.

Our narrow road cut through fields of Highland cows lazing by (and on) the road. They just watched us peddle by through their shaggy hair.

We rented our bikes from a guy named Nick. He lives outside the tiny Scottish town of Taynuilt in the western Highlands off a road about as wide as one car.

Nick Charlton owns RCS Cycles and repairs, sells and rents bikes from a large shed behind his house.

At any moment, we expected Harry Potter and Mel Gibson’s William Wallace to walk up and offer to take us to Brigadoon.

My older son, who rode at the front of our single-file line, stopped more than once and said, “Mom, just look at this place.”

We were told this part of Scotland was home to more sheep than people. We laughed at the time, but as we biked, we realized it was true.

Oban popular summer spot Scotland From A30 photo and compared battle wounds—I had scraped my face with my nails while holding my nose and the boys counted barnacle scratches.

Those little scratches quickly disappeared.

The sensation of hurtling seaward from a Scottish cliff will last forever.

IF YOU GO

Oban is a small fishing village of about 8,500 people on the west coast of Scotland.

Unofficially known as the Gateway to the Isles, it is a popular summer tourist spot with seafood restaurants serving that day’s catch, boat tours to the islands of the Inner Hebrides and the Oban Distillery, one of Scotland’s oldest whisky distilleries and famous for its single malt 14-year-old scotch.

While in Oban and the western highlands, you’ll find a bevy of bedand-breakfasts, hotels and quaint inns to spend the night.

Another option is renting a self-catered cottage where linens and basic kitchen essentials are supplied, but for the most part, you are on your own when it comes to cleaning and cooking.

A cottage allows a larger group to spread out and it doesn’t hurt that you can save some money on food by eating in.

Sites like HomeAway. com and VRBO.com list rentals of all shapes, sizes and prices.

We rented a small lodge on a working farm called Ballimore Farm Estates about 30 minutes outside of Oban.

We prepared most of our own meals to save money.

A long winding road,

past fields of heather and thistle, takes you into the heart of the farm where we stayed, which includes a large manor house that sleeps 12, a small cottage for four and a slightly larger lodge—actually, a duplex-style building—that can sleep up to eight, depending on if you rent part or all of it.

The lodge is comfortable, but not fussy and the best part is the view.

The farm sits on thousands of acres of rolling hills complete with its very own fishing loch, Loch Tromlee.

Expect to wake to the sounds of bleating sheep and bellowing Highland cows grazing in the field right next to your bedroom window.

We paid 428 pounds about $700 US with a $100 refundable cleaning deposit and a three-night minimum for half of the lodge.

But you can get in for as little as 70 pounds a night, or about $116, for this space in the off season from November through March.

There are special rates during the holidays.

Memory loss potentially reversible I f you’re over 40 and find yourself increasingly struggling to remember where those car keys are, the name of the nice neighbour you wave at every couple of days or what you did during the day last weekend, you may be experiencing the frustrating effects of age-related memory loss.

This is memory loss associated with getting older but is not the degenerative and much more serious dementia or Alzheimer’s Disease.

Recent work by Eric Kandel, Nobel Prize winning psychiatrist, has turned up some very interesting findings about this kind of memory loss.

Age-related memory loss typically starts when people are in their 40s whereas Alzheimer’s Disease typically begins at 65 to 70 years of age.

Mild memory loss is a very common phenomenon as we get older.

It is difficult to obtain exact figures on its prevalence because many people do not even report it to their physician.

It is often thought to be simply a normal part of aging and only when memory loss becomes more serious does it get brought to the attention of a medical professional.

Recent studies exam-

This certainly suggests a possible blueprint for a future drug treatment to reverse age-related memory loss.

From my own medical practice with the over 40 age group, I can say this would be a very popular and much sought after therapy should it ever come to fruition with acceptable side-effects.

On a related topic, Dr. Kandel talked about the relationship between bone health and mental health.

Osteoblasts in bone release a hormone called osteocalcin that is important for insulin secretion, testosterone production, energy expenditure, brown fat and insulin sensitivity.

It also boosts neurogenesis, serotonin and dopamine while decreasing GABA, a neurotransmitter of the central nerv-

ining brains at autopsy of people who were between the ages of 40 to 90 and who did not have Alzheimer’s disease found a systematic decrease of mRNA and a particular protein, over time in the part of the brain called the dentate gyrus.

This is the area of the brain where age-related memory loss is thought to begin.

In mice they found this same protein decreased in the dentate gyri of old mice.

When they inhibited that protein in young mice they replicated some of the age-related behavioural abnormalities of old mice that are thought to model age-related memory problems in humans.

They could reverse this effect by enhancing the expression of the same protein.

ous system that inhibits excitatory responses.

Injection of osteocalcin into the dentate gyrus enhances memory performance of both old and young mice.

Given that aging is often associated with bone loss and therefore a decrease in the release of this hormone, it is possible this could contribute to age-related memory loss.

Exercise builds bone mass and this may explain some of the beneficial effects of exercise on cognition.

These findings are very interesting. Let’s hope this story continues to evolve in a positive direction and we can all look forward to remembering our lives in our golden years, at least as long as we don’t get Alzheimer’s.

Meantime, take lots of photos and label them carefully because someday these may be important in helping to retrieve those memories of places, people and events you just can’t retrieve without assistance.

And of course, exercise regularly. It is good for your bones and your brain.

Royal Society of Canada president Graham Bell says election to the RSC is the highest honour a scholar can achieve.

“The RSC warmly welcomes this year’s newly elected fellows.

These outstanding scholars, artists, and scientists will be joining the society due to their outstanding work in the arts, hu-

“By promoting and recognizing these leading intellectuals and researchers, the Royal Society of Canada continues to be on the forefront of significant advances for the betterment of Canada and the world.”

This is second honour presented to Klironomos this year.

He was recently named a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science for his contributions to the field of plant and soil ecology, particularly for empirical studies on plant-microbe interactions and the structuring of plant communities.

Klironomos will be officially inducted into the fellowship in November at the RSC’s annual general meeting in Quebec City.

He is the second Royal Society of Canada fellow at UBC Okanagan.

Professor Doug Owram received the distinction in 1990.

This July, Klironomos was listed as one of the standout researchers of the past decade. Highly Cited Researchers is a compilation of influential names in science, issued

by Thomson Reuters’ Science Watch.

Making that list confirms that Klironomos’ research has consistently been judged by peers to be of particular significance and utility.

Sun looks to sweep The Okanagan Sun looks to continue its recent domination of the Vancouver Island Raiders when the teams do battle in B.C. Football Conference action this weekend in Nanaimo.

The third and final meeting of the regular season between the provincial rivals kicks off Saturday at 2 p.m. at Caledonia Park.

The Sun, which has won four consecutive games, has beaten the Raiders handily in the previous two meetings, 38-0 and 64-20.

Despite the lopsided results in the first two meetings, linebacker JT Fernandez said the firstplace Sun (5-1) needs to treat Saturday’s trip to Nanaimo like a whole new ball game.

“It doesn’t matter what happened the first two times we played them, we just have to stay together as a group and prepare like we would

for any other game,” said Fernandez, who is in his second season with the Sun. “Even with our record, the guys have managed to stay humble, we don’t take anything for granted. We need to go in there, play hard and get it done.”

Fernandez has been one of many key figures in what has been a stingy and, more often than not, a dominant Sun defense.

Okanagan has yielded just 85 points in six games, a result of smart coaching and on-field talent, according to Fernandez.

“We have a really good game plan every week, coach puts in something different for us every game, we’re making a lot of the right checks and right calls, and working well as a unit,” Fernandez said. “The athleticism in the guys we have on defense is unbelievable, too, so that makes a big difference.”

JANKE, YOCHIM BCFC HONOURS…

A dominant 31-10 win over the Langley Rams has produced two BCFC players of the week honours for the Sun. Safety Dexter Janke is the defensive player of the week after intercepting two passes and making two solo tackles. The Edmonton native returned both picks inside the Rams’ 20-yard line, including one for 70 yards.

Robbie Yochim is the conference’s top special teams player for the week.

The fifth-year defensive back returned a punt 50 yards for a touchdown in the first quarter.

Yochim finished the night with 102 yards in punt returns and a 34-yard kick off return.

UBCO Heat soccer teams play home openers Friday A busy weekend for UBC Okanagan athletics will be highlighted by the Heat soccer teams Canada West home openers.

Here’s a look at what’s happening: Women’s soccer— After notching two points against the UNBC Timberwolves in a strong opening weekend in the Canada West, the 0-0-2 UBC Okanagan Heat will host two tenacious opponents this weekend, the 1-1-0 Fraser Valley Cascades and the 1-0-1 backto-back CIS champion

Trinity Western Spartans.

In their inaugural weekend competing in the CIS (Canadian University Sport), UBC Okanagan Heat women’s soccer fought hard to achieve two draws in Prince George against UNBC on Sept. 6 and 7.

Both games will be played at the Nonis Sports Field in Kelowna. On Friday, the match against the Fraser Valley Cascades will begin at 5 p.m., and on Saturday, the ball is kicked off with the Trinity Western Spartans at 5

p.m.

Men’s soccer—The 1-1-0 UBC Okanagan Heat secured their first ever win in the CIS last weekend, a trend that head coach Dante Zanatta will hope to continue.

This weekend, the action features home games against the 0-2-0 Fraser Valley Cascades and the 1-1-0 Trinity Western Spartans.

After much anticipation leading up to its debut season in the Canada West Conference, the Heat were able to split a

pair of games last weekend against the UNBC Timberwolves; a 2-0 victory on Sept. 6 and a 2-1 defeat on Sept. 7.

Both matches will take place in Kelowna at the Nonis Sports Field on the UBC Okanagan campus. On Friday, the game takes place at 7 p.m. versus the Fraser Valley Cascades and on Saturday, the game against the Trinity Western Spartans also begins at 7 p.m.

CROSS COUNTRY

Team time trials will

result in varsity roster selection. Up to 10 women and 10 men will be selected for the roster and travel to meets this season.

Coach Nikki Reiter handicaped the trial saying: “Favourites for the win include third year runner and HK student Michelle Blackburne for the women and Colin Wallace, a 36-year-old veteran, PhD student in health and exercise sciences studying concussion, returning after taking last season off.

“Michelle will have

GOLF

This weekend the Heat will once again be on the road for the second PACWEST tournament of the year. The Morningstar Golf Club will host the PACWEST the 36hole tournament starting Saturday and finishing up Sunday.

With close to a third of their roster away at NHL rookie camps, the Kelowna Rockets will put the finishing touches on their exhibition schedule this weekend with two games.

Dan Lambert’s crew will be in Vancouver on Friday to take on the Giants.

Then on Saturday, the Victoria Royals will pay a visit to Prospera Place for a 7 p.m. start against the Rockets (2-2-0).

Eight current Rockets are away at pro camps: Rourke Chartier, Tyson Baillie and Dalton Yorke (all in San Jose), Tyrell Goulbourne (Philadelphia), Mitchell Wheaton (Detroit), Madison Bowey (Washington), and Jackson Whistle (Vancouver).

Most, if not all, are expected back with the club next week.

Three other Rockets from the 2013-14 team who won’t be returning are also at NHL camps: Damon Severson (New Jersey), Myles Bell (New Jersey), and Ryan Olsen (Winnipeg).

Kelowna opens the WHL regular season Saturday, Sept. 20 at home to the Kamloops Balzers.

Turner number one in net for Chiefs Wurtele third in Ironman 70.3 event ▼ QUEBEC

Golf From A36 Hockey product Anthony Ruggiero).

In net Kelowna’s Chris Turner begins the season as the number-one, after being released from the Salmon Arm SilverBacks of the BCHL. Sheridan says the organization continues to grow with more interest in the community each year.

“More people are stepping up each year to help

out and it makes the program that much stronger,” he said.

“Everything is bigger and better. The community support is better. We’re always looking at getting out there more but we’re happy with the growth and support that we have.”

Tickets for the Chiefs home opener will be available at the door or you can call in advance for tickets to the office at 250-8628020.

Kelowna’s Heather Wurtele showcased a powerful run to place third at the World Championship Ironman 70.3, a half-Ironman distance at the worlds held in Quebec.

Known for her cycling prowess on the international Ironman circuit Wurtele has become a constant threat once the run stage begins.

Heather Wurtele

At the 2014 World Championships she used a strong bike leg and the second fastest run of the day to move from seventh off the bike to take a spot on the podium among the world’s top three Pro Elite women.

Daniela Ryf of Switzerland took first, while second place went to Jodie Swallow of the United Kingdom.

The 2014 World Championship was held in Mont Tremblant, Quebec after moving from Las Vegas Nevada.

The 2015 Worlds will be held in Austria.

Wurtele continues to confirm her position as one of the world’s top female long-distance triathletes.

This season alone she’s posted wins at Iron-

man 70.3 Mexico, Ironman 70.3 California, Ironman 70.3 Eagleman and, most recently, the full distance Ironman Coeur d’Alene Idaho.

Wurtele and husband Trevor race for Saucony, Cervelo Bikes, First Endurance Nutrition, Enve Wheels, Cycle Ops Power, Aquasphere Westsuits and Manitoba Harvest.

▼ RUGBY

Collecting goods for Fijian village Over the past few decades, the local rugby community has benefited from a number of Fijian players who have played for the Kelowna Crows and Priest Valley Vicars rugby teams.

Their creative play and coaching contributions have made local teams teams better, says Crows officials.

So the local rugby community wants to give back to the communities of these players.

Suvavou, Fiji has 120 young boys and girls in the village.

All of these four to

18-year-old young athletes like to play rugby and soccer aas well as other sports in their community. Most play barefooted and many do not have proper sportswear.

In response to this need, the Kelowna rugby community has launched the Equip a Village for Sport Project.

The project’s goal is to collect enough donated sportswear to fully equip all 120 youths in Suvavou.

Over the next eight weeks, used sportswear from Central Okanagan closets and basements will be collected.

Do you have runners, cleats, sports socks, shorts, rugby shirts, soccer shirts, or sports equipment that are no longer in use? If so, the project could use your help.

Six local businesses have agreed to collect cleats, sportswear and sports equipment during the next eight weeks: • Century 21 Kelowna (251 Harvey Avenue.)

• Chevy’s Source for Sports (1876 Cooper Road.)

• Eurosport Soccer & Rugby (1771 Cooper Road.)

• Parkinson Cricket Pavil-

ion (1800 Parkinson Way) • RE/MAX Kelowna (1553 Harvey Avenue.)

• Royal LePage Kelowna (1890 Cooper Road.)

All of the footwear, sportswear and sports equipment will be delivered to Suvavou in mid-November.

Local realtor Chris Ward of RE/MAX has offered to cover the cost of shipping the equipment to Fiji.

For information about the Equip a Village for Sport Project, contact Doug Manning at dmanning@corerugby.com or 250-869-0575.
