Vernon stars shine for Hospice

D

ancing with the Vernon Stars 2014 exceeded all its goals as dancers donned diamonds and pearls for a soldout crowd of more than 300 at the Vernon Recreation Centre, Friday. While the dancers took the spotlight, the North Okanagan Hospice Society is the real winner benefitting from more than $75,000 raised at the 30th anniversary event. “Dancing with the Vernon Stars 2014 was an absolutely fabulous event. The dancers, the venue, the patrons, the energy – everything sparkled,” said Ruth Edwards, NOHS executive director. “We elevated our fundraising goal this year, and everyone involved with the event rose to the occasion. Raising more than $75,000 is a fundraising record for Hospice and we are so thankful to all those who participated. Our sponsors, suppliers, dancers, coaches, judges and organizers exceeded all expectations.” Showcasing a Diamonds & Pearls theme, the event showcased 10 dance couples who believe they have what it takes to win one of the two coveted trophies. The winner this year for Community Favourite Award is Bruce and Jill Acton (business consultant, VantageOne Credit Union board member and psychiatrist) with raising close to $6,540 and second place is Erma and Lloyd Main (Vernon Toyota and Interior Health) raising $6,050. The money raised is from people who paid to vote for them. The Judges Favourite Award is determined by a combination of judges’ scores. This award went to Kim Heizmann and Jason Neumann (Century 21 realtors). The dancer’s judge’s scores were all within 1.5 points of each other so it was a very close competition. “The judges were showcased on a judge’s platform that also glitzed as the judges bantered back and forth with lots of laughs, kudos and constructive feedback,” said Jennifer Strachan, event director with Aspire Strategies. “They all did a wonderful job at keeping everyone entertained as they critiqued the dancers.” The judges were Galina Labun,

For this event, we all won. “Kari Gares passed by me and mentioned she was wearing her grandmother’s earrings who passed seven years ago at Hospice. It gave me goose bumps and caught me in the moment to embrace why we work so hard to put on successful events, at the end of the day it is about providing peace and comfort at a most difficult time”. There were also a few special items for auction donated by Silver Star Mountain Resort and the highest auction item was a wine tour for 12 people generously donated by Mary Jo O’Keefe. Kevin Rothwell was the auctioneer and managed to pull the extra dollars from the audience. The Schubert Centre provided delicious appetizers, and provided the cash bar service, and music was provided by The Legendary Lake Monsters. “On behalf of those we serve, we thank the community of the North Okanagan for their support of endof-life care for the past 30 years,” said Edwards. “We are very grateful for both Lorna Robb and her colleague Ruth McGrath for coaching all the dance couples.” The event is what it is today because of Robb, owner of Cheek to Cheek. The Dancing with the Vernon Stars was her vision and her way of giving back to the community and Hospice. “We are so fortunate to have this wonderful place in our community,” said Robb. “In March 2011 my dad died at the North Okanagan Hospice Society in a peaceful, respectful, comfortable way.”

Cherryville home site of shooting

Ready To Ride

RiCHARd RolKe Morning Star Staff

One person was sent to hospital after gunshots were heard at a Cherryville property. Members of the Lumby RCMP detachment converged on a home off of Highway 6 between 6 and 7 p.m. after reports of shots fired Wednesday. “They are trying to determine what they are dealing with,” said Gord Molendyk, RCMP spokesperson, of the investigation. “They want to find out exactly what happened and that could take some time.” One person was injured during the incident and was taken to hospital for treatment. “They were not life-threatening injuries and we won’t release more information at this time because of the ongoing investigation,” said Molendyk. Several people were on scene when police officers arrived, and while they were interviewed by the RCMP, the relationship between the individuals has not been determined yet. Molendyk doesn’t believe the Cherryville property was previously known to the RCMP, and few details are being provided about the phone call that led officers to the scene. “I am not sure if the report came from the house itself, a passerby or people nearby,” he said.

Investigation continues into assault Jennifer Smith Morning Star Staff

A puzzling string of events Wednesday have been pieced together by RCMP. Police were able to narrow a series of calls down to this: a woman was assaulted inside her parked vehicle at the hospital Wednesday morning as a suspect attempted to take the vehicle. The victim, a Vernon resident, was not injured.

“There is, in all likelihood, further charges.” — Gord Molendyk

“We later determined that he broke into a residence,” said Gord Molendyk, RCMP spokesperson. A 30-year-old Vernon man

was arrested near the walking trails and stairs off of Okanagan Avenue. “He is from the Vernon area and known to police,” said

Molendyk. The suspect was expected to appear in court Thursday to face charges of break and enter. But the investigation is ongoing. “There is, in all likelihood, further charges coming in relation to the incident with the woman in the car.” Those charges could be assault, attempted theft or robbery, said Molendyk.

Familiar faces step up in Vernon richard rolke Morning Star Staff

There are two more candidates for Vernon councillor. Both Janet Green and James Todd have filed nomination papers for the Nov. 15 election. “I had calls from residents who asked me to run,” said Green, who recently moved to Vernon from Lumby. “I work really hard Janet Green and I like to get things done.” Green held administrative positions with Vancouver General Hospital and the Vancouver Coastal Health Authority. She sat on Lumby council for a term and recently sought the federal Conservative nomination.

A major issue for Green is the regional district wanting to borrow $70 million for water upgrades. “A lot of people aren’t in favour of it. My question is - what happens if the referendum isn’t approved?” Green also wants increased emphasis on pursuing senior government grants for infrastructure. “It’s the only way we’ll find relief for taxpayers,” she said. “I’m all about fiscal James Todd responsibility.” Todd ran for council in 2011, and he says he has a passion to be involved in the community. “I want innovation to be the standard not the exception and a re-examination of some

present fiscal policy. New ideas, out of the box thinking, is my forte,” said the author and artist who was born in Vernon. “Over the next four years, I will be diligent towards instilling a new attitude. I will focus on the basic working infrastructure – sidewalks, left-turn signals, safe crosswalks, proper lighting, paving and transit. When a neighborhood requires a problem fixed for public safety, then that concern has to be addressed promptly.” Todd says there is also a need for city hall to become more accessible. “If elected, I will make myself available on a weekend, every month, to meet with individuals, on public issues,” he said. Also running for council are Juliette Cunningham, Kari Gares, Jack Gilroy, Art Gourley, Shawn Lee, Catherine Lord, Dalvir Nahal, Mark Olsen, Bob Spiers and Brian Quiring.

Enderby incumbents in running richard rolke Morning Star Staff

Two incumbent Enderby councillors want to continue serving the community. Tundra Baird is pursuing a second term Nov. 15 while Brad Case has his eyes set on a fourth term. “There is still a lot I want to get done,” said Baird. “There is river access and there’s more at Barnes Park that needs to be done.” Baird says the city has taken great strides to improve the Tundra Baird relationship with the Splatsin First Nation. “We need to keep working on it because they are integral to the community and working on economic development in the area,” she said. Baird was born in Enderby and she raises her family and assists at her family’s restaurant. “There’s a great lifestyle and it’s a great place to live,” she said. “It’s a great community and I believe I can help make it better.” Case is a financial advisor who was born in

Enderby. “I want to see some items we are working on carry through,” he said of seeking re-election. “I like the direction the community is taking.” Among the issues of concern for Case are improving the relationship with the Splatsin, economic development and infrastructure. He also wants to see an active transportation plan proceed. “Maybe lighting along the river walk could be part of that,” he said, adding that Brad Case the city also needs to pressure the provincial government on Highway 97A traffic flow. “We want to get a plan out of them so we can plan our community.” Incumbent Raquel Knust will seek re-election as will former councillor Paul McCaig and retired banker Brian Schreiner. Beryl Ludwig and Earl Shipmaker are not seeking re-election. Declared for mayor are incumbent Howie Cyr and Greg McCune, a current councillor.

Truck and trailer go off road Morning Star Staff

A motor vehicle accident sent one person to hospital. On Wednesday at about 7 p.m., Vernon RCMP received a call about a westbound truck pulling a trailer going off the road on Highway 97, by Round Lake. The vehicle struck a hydro pole and went down a 200-foot embankment. “The driver was the only occupant and had injuries to his hands. He may have received other injuries as well,” said Gord Molendyk, RCMP spokesperson, adding that the 67-year-old Penticton man was taken to Vernon Jubilee

Hospital. The tractor-trail-

er unit was removed Thursday morning.

Incumbents step forward roger knox Morning Star Staff

The veterans and the rookies feel the same: they think they have a good team in Spallumcheen and want to continue moving forward. Five of Spallumcheen’s incumbent councillors will seek re-election in the Nov. 15 municipal vote, while Rachael Ganson will not run again. Todd York is the veteran of Todd York the councillors, as he seeks a fourth term on council. “I really enjoy working with this council and our mayor is great to work with,” said York. “The new four-year term is something to consider but we’re embarking on a number of projects that I would like to see through to Andrew Casson the end.” Andrew Casson wants a third consecutive term on council to continue its hard work. “We are very committed to seeing Spall continue to grow in smart, healthy, productive ways,” said Casson. “Industrial and commercial growth are just two of the keys to giving Christine Fraser us stability that will allow us to protect the ‘farming comes first’ identity that helps define Spallumcheen.” Christine Fraser was first elected to council in a byelection. She is seeking her second full term on council. “I enjoy working with a group of people who respect Van Tienhoven each other’s views and are working together to represent all of Spallumcheen,” said Fraser. “I have heard a lot of positive feedback from the community about our commitment to solving our local issues.” Joe Van Tienhoven and Ed Hanoski are completing their Ed Hanoski first terms. Both admitted it took awhile to get used to the idea of being a councillor, and all the work and meetings that go into it, but both want to continue. “I think this council got off to a bumpy start but a lot of things are starting to come to fruition

and we’re starting to get some results,” said Van Tienhoven. “I am committed to serving the township for the next four years if I’m re-elected.” Said Hanoski: “I figure I learned for three years on how things work. Things have improved in the township and if I’m elected to keep going, I’d like to do a lot more for the community.” Ganson has decided not to seek a second term. “I am going to focus on my business and try to obtain my Phd,” she said. “I have absolutely loved it. The best decision I made was to run for council and I will miss it.” Among Ganson’s highlights from being on council was being part of the township’s 120th anniversary celebration. “It was a lot of work but I really enjoyed it,” she said. There will be a mayoral race in the township as incumbent Janice Brown will face a challenge from former mayor Will Hansma. Former councillor Dave Brew, who lost his bid for mayor in 2011 to Brown, is also running for the mayor’s chair again.

Giving thanks through grief

F

or anyone who has lost a loved one, putting yourself back in a place that you once shared with that person can be difficult. Maybe it’s going to a special restaurant you used to dine together at. It could be an event you annually attended or even their home. We tend to avoid causing ourselves grief, therefore going back to certain places or events, or even celebrating certain occasions, is out of the question. While I am the queen of suppression (my therapist likes to remind me of that - and yes, I have a therapist and I’m not ashamed to say it, although my Jennifer Smith bank account is), I never quite understood why people avoid such circumstances. And I say that, yet, I do it just the same. Yes, it’s hard to confront those situations, where emotions can take over, but that’s not a bad thing. Whoever said it was wrong to cry, or be sad? Those are valid emotions, especially for someone who is grieving (and PS - there is no timeline for grief, missing someone is a lifelong process, the hurt is always there it just eases with time). But facing those emotional situations is a necessary step in the grieving process (you can’t avoid things forever, or you’ll really be an emotional wreck, and you’ll need twice as much therapy). I found myself in that situation last weekend as my daughter and I headed to Marshall Field for the Run for the Cure. It’s an event that we hadn’t taken part in since 2012, the year we ran (er, walked) with my mom. So it was obviously tough to go back to an event that we once shared with someone who is no longer with us. We hadn’t even gotten to the event yet and my five-year-old daughter started star-

At RAndoM

ring up at the ceiling of the car and crying. “I want Nana back,” she told me through her heart-broken tears. Ugh, now if that doesn’t hit ya, I don’t know what would. But it was good. Good for her to share her feelings. And it was a good reminder to me, that today, it would be OK, to be sad. I made it through the event, trying to be strong for my daughter, and in the face of all the others who stood strongly in support of their own lost loved ones, as well as those currently battling the disease and the fortunate ones proudly donning their survivor shirts after winning their battles. In the end it was a single balloon a child had lost her grip on, drifting up to the heaven’s at the end of the event, which eventually caused me to break down. Despite the societal pressure many often feel to hold back their tears, I tried to do as my therapist has told me countless times let it be there. Or as Disney’s latest princess Elsa says: “Let it go, let it go, can’t hold it back any more.” Like a weight, tied to the balloon, lifting from my shoulders, the tears gave me another moment to grieve, and remember. These moments will likely strike many with this weekend’s occasion – Thanksgiving. It’s hard to be thankful when you’ve been robbed of someone. When this special occasion is not the same when someone is missing. So take the time to grieve the empty seat at the table, or the missing smell of mom’s famous turkey, but also take time to be thankful. Adopting an attitude of gratitude is what Thanksgiving is all about. Sharing your own bounty with others, particularly those who are not as fortunate, is the foundation this holiday is built on. It’s a time to bring loved ones together, so we can all be thankful for the past, present and future.

The deadline for candidates in the 2014 B.C. municipal election is almost here. Today at 4 p.m., prospective candidates will no longer be allowed to file their nomination papers. That means at 4:01 p.m., voters in all areas of B.C. will finally know who is running and for what political position. Following that are five weeks of crazy fun, also known as the election campaign. That means all-candidates meetings, photoops and plenty of promises. While federal and provincial elections seem to get all the glory, local elections actually have the most impact on the common person’s life. Think about it. Federal foreign policy may be interesting and provincial budget balancing is also important, but it doesn’t normally impact you as much as changes to your property taxes or alterations to your garbage pick up. The people you elect Nov. 15 have a direct effect on your daily lives. They have the power to raise your property taxes, to decide whether to pave a road or allow you to build an extension to your home. Voters get to choose who will make decisions about their children’s education and to decide who will be their voice in the community. It’s a big responsibility and an obligation to take it seriously. Community newspapers also have a huge role in civic elections. While the Vancouver media may cover some outlying areas — Surrey, Richmond or even Langley — you aren’t going to read about candidates in Vernon, Lumby or Enderby anywhere else but your local paper. This is when local journalism puts its best foot forwards and brings the important local issues to local residents. It’s our job to keep you informed. It’s your job to vote. — Castlegar News

S

being AppreciAteD Thank you to everyone that provided our teachers with moral support through a difficult time. They too are individuals facing the trials and tribulations of every day life. Because they have chosen a profession that requires them to educate and care for our children, they are open to public scrutiny and easily targeted. Teachers have been lumped into one big pot, criticized and judged for what they don't do, and how many days they don't work (in the eyes of the public), since my children started school 30 years ago. It seems nothing has changed. I have worked in the mental health field, educating and caring for people for the past 22 years. I have received nothing but praise, respect, support and thanks for what I do. I, in turn, have always respected and supported the people that play such an important role in the lives

o Catherine Lord wants to retain her seat on council to oversee actions in place to improve our economy and sustain our infrastructure, presumably taken during her tenure. What initiatives? Business permits have not been published on the City of Vernon website since the complete disintegration of the downtown core in 2010. Property tax incentives for new building and an overall poor economic environment have devastated existing landlords with a spate of vacancies. The relocation of the visitor centre has left RV travellers with a difficult location to park. Hardly what one would call a vibrant downtown, an official community plan (OCP) centerpiece. Overall, the actions of council and the recommendations of the OCP are totally at odds. There can be no affordable housing or light industrial zoning (both top priorities) with a proviso to protect agricultural land. Developable land in Vernon is completely held within the Agricultural Land Reserve. It's one, vast, highly-subsidized green

zone for both water locally and help from the province or federally. It's either protect the subsidy, or grow and develop a more productive tax base. Water should be on a pay-for-use system and allocation off of the backs of taxpayers. Moreover, her claim to hold staff to an already bloated 1.8 per cent increase is hardly a welcome chime to taxpayers. And now Jamie Morrow wants a collaboration process as the base for his eco-

of my children, and now with my grandchildren. I would not expect anyone to judge or criticize the work I don't do or how many days I don't work, unless they have walked a mile in my shoes. I, in turn, won't be a judge of our teachers unless I have walked a mile in their's. We all do our jobs better when we know we are appreciated. Wendy Justice-edwards cleAning up Recently, I had the opportunity to be a part of the Great Canadian Lakeshore Clean up. Our school cleaned Coldstream Creek from McClounie Road to Kidston Road. I feel I need to share my frustration and anger with my experience cleaning the banks and water leading to Kalamalka Lake, our water source. I feel angry and frustrated because we found sheet metal, pop cans, green tarps, plastic bottles,

plastic bags, rebar, landscape tarp, take-out containers, big cement blocks, paper, and so much more in our creek. Also, I wanted to bring awareness to how valuable Kalamalka Lake is to our community. This is our drinking water, our irrigation water and a tourist recreation area. However, I am confused and concerned on how we can raise awareness for proper use of our landfill and to keep litter out of our creeks. It's 2014 people, come on don’t litter.

nomic building plan as mayor. Even the myopic can see what has to happen to get this city on a more progressive tract. Why can't he show us some leadership as he plies for the top position and bring some real ideas to his platform and give us something to vote for? Brian Quiring feels a second term can continue to use his skills to improve the development permit process. Vernon is reasonably governed when it comes to new building development and

is arguably as good or better than other jurisdictions. In fact, the process is well documented and easy to follow, leaving little for Quiring to prattle on about fixing in the next four years. Whatever the November outcome, the OCP has remained unchanged for almost 12 years with little leadership from our politicians. Between the swimming pool failure and various other water problems in city infrastructure, our administration is also showing signs of wear when it comes to economic development and tourism. The last regime certainly delivered nothing worthy of its ballot promises and the new lot are clearly heading in the same direction. Unfortunately, property taxes and utilities are now nothing more than legalized extortion and withholding for poor administration is not an option. More likely than not, it's simply another four years of opening our wallets to the next litany of excuses that our politicians can't seem to come to grips with. Alan D. Wilson

If they look out their windows on any day, the wood plant is in operation. They will see a plume of wood dust rising from the operation. The pellet plant will add 20 fulltime jobs to our area, but more importantly, it will support and help keep the jobs in our area and maybe grow or bring in new business. Has it been too long to remember the glass plant which was sold to a U.S. firm whicj said nothing would change? The plant closed, the equipment and jobs moved to the U.S. to put their people to work and our Canadian workers were left to freeze in the dark. This is a Canadian company which will employ Canadian workers that may live and prosper our community, as well as Lumby, Vernon, Kelowna and all of the way to Vancouver and many B.C. families. bill ellis

Efforts are underway to ensure fire protection meets the needs of Armstrong and Spallumcheen in the future. The two municipalities are proceeding with a number of initiatives to maintain the effectiveness of the fire service, including a possible expansion of the fire hall equipment bays and other facilities. “Parts of the hall don’t meet code,” said Chris Pieper, Armstrong mayor, of the 35-year-old building. It’s a tight squeeze to get all of the vehicles inside in the bays and there is insufficient training space. Hiring a second paid, full-time employee for the largely volunteer operation is also being explored. “There’s a lot more documentation and accountability for insurance companies. The fire code regulations are onerous on a volunteer department,” said Pieper. Presently, the only full-time employee is a fire inspector and it hasn’t been decided what duties

“Let us give you something to smile about...”

We’re closer to a future without breast cancer, but we can’t stop now. Please join us next year on Sunday, October 4, 2015.

the second position would be but possibly clerical. “We have shortfalls with management and administration time,” said Ian Cumming, volunteer fire chief. Pieper admits adding to the payroll would come at a cost for taxpayers. “A paid employee impacts the bottom line. No one will do it for free,” he said. Both municipalities pay towards the fire department’s budget ($525,000 in 2014) and for fire inspection ($113,000). The timeline for possibly expanding the fire hall or hiring staff will be discussed during the 2015 budget process. Approval has also been given to a fire service governance committee. It will have two representatives from each council and they will oversee and provide direction on recommended actions included in the recent fire services review. “We want to fine tune the process so we’re not dealing with two whole councils,” said Janice Brown, Spallumcheen mayor. A consulting firm, Dave Mitchell and Associates, will provide assistance to implement recommendations related to governance, stagging and training. There are currently 38 volunteer firefighters and they respond to about 190 calls a year.

metered rate. “We’re trying to calm the fears,” said Coun. Greg McCune. Before metered water rates are launched in 2015, the city has been sending out mock bills this year so residents can see how much water they use and adjust their consumption. A concern has arisen among the top four per cent of residential water users. In one case, a person presented a mock bill for $1,000. In some cases, the high water usage is because of leaks such as toilets. There was also a case of a data entry problem at city hall. “We will compile as much of the data as we can and hash it out,” said Coun. Tundra Baird of an Oct. 20 meeting to discuss current rates and rate options. “The program won’t take place (in 2015) until the system is working properly.” Mayor Howie Cyr says the city is taking the public’s concerns seriously. “We don’t want people unduly stressed about water meters,” he said. “We want to conserve water and have those who conserve water not subsidizing those that don’t.” It’s believed metered water rates will reduce the community’s water use by 25 per cent. “The water metering program will help defer major capital upgrades, reduce treatment costs and provide equitable billing to customers,” said Jennifer Bellamy, chief financial officer.

Fourteen dogs and two horses were seized from a home in the Vernon area following a cruelty investigation. They are now at the Penticton SPCA, and staff hope most of them can be adopted soon. “With the care that was needed for all these animals, with the resources they had, they just couldn’t meet those requirements right now,” said Corinne Ross, Penticton branch manager, adding it appears the former owners were in over their heads. Included in the pack of 14 dogs were two adult rottweilers and a dozen carlin pinschers, which are a small breed that resembles a mini-rotweiller. Of the 12 small dogs, four are puppies about five weeks old, while the rest, including their mother, are adults. “They are pretty scared, so some of them are going to be more difficult to adopt than others,” said Ross, adding the animals are all in fair physical condition. “They kind of need to go to a quiet home where perhaps there aren’t younger kids, where they can have some one-on-one time and some quiet introductions to new situations.” Cooper, a one-year-old male carlin pinscher, was taken from his kennel overnight Thursday and the police have been notified. “We’re just obviously very worried about his safety,” said Ross, who noted the dog should be on pain medication following his recent neutering.

It wasn’t exactly the Teddy bear’s picnic but a hungry bear drew a lot of attention in Coldstream. Employees from Cidel Moving and Storage were hauling items into a house on Tebo Dive Monday at 2 p.m. when they noticed rustling in some bushes. “We saw something and thought it was a dog but it was a bear,” said Rick Zoethout, with Cidel. “It came right over to a table where there were some chestnuts and wolfed them right down.” Once the chestnuts were gone the bear wandered away. The bear didn’t threaten anyone. “He was minding his own business,” said Zoethout. The Ministry of Environment points out that bears are common in the North Okanagan and at this time of the year, they are seeking food to build up fat reserves for hibernation. As a result, the ministry insists that potential food sources should be restricted to prevent bears from visiting residential yards. Secure garbage cans and food for pets and livestock and residents are urged to take down bird feeders as they can attract bears. “During bear season, clean your barbecue immediately after every use,” states the ministry website. “Wash the grill or burn off the smells, food residue and grease. If you can smell your barbecue then it is not clean enough. Store your barbecue in a safe place behind closed doors.” Ripe fruit should be cleaned up. For more information about bear-proofing your property, go to www.env.gov.bc.ca/cos/info/bearaware/prevent_problems.html.

have Internet,” she said. Pearase admits, though, that not all of the issues are with the ministry and some may rest with the Regional District of North Okanagan office, which initially receives the forest plan details. “If the regional district (staff) is waiting to write its reports before the information goes to the APC, it’s partly their problem,” she said of public input being missed.

There’s a call for the ministry and forestry companies to improve communications with communities. “We’re not asking for much,” said Pearase. The other suggestion is for forestry officials to meet with EAAC. “We would like them to come out once a year to discuss what they do — where the cutblocks are and if there are any concerns,” said Eugene Foisy, Cherryville director.

Food bank needs votes Morning Star Staff

The Lake Country Food Bank needs a permanent building, and the Aviva Fund makes it possible for the whole community to participate. The Lake Country Rotary Club has proposed construction of a new food bank as an Aviva Insurance project. “The more votes this project gets, the more likely the food bank is to get up to S100,000 towards construction,” said Bob Rymarchuk, project director. Go to www.avivacommunityfund.org/users/registration/register and register with your e-mail or Facebook address to be eligible to vote. Vote every day until Tuesday. “Get your friends, your family and your neighbours to register and vote too,” said Rymarchuk. “Every vote counts. The more community involvement, the better.” Currently, the food bank operates out of cramped space in the former Winfield Elementary. Fifty volunteers struggle to provide food for more than 600 clients every month. The District of Lake Country has provided land for a new food bank and the Rotary Club is raising funds for construction. UBC and Okanagan College students have pledged support with construction and businesses have promised about $200,000 in materials and services.

Heading out hunting while under the influence of alcohol or drugs is against the law. Conservation officers have had five cases since September where hunters were stopped at roadblocks and found to have been using marijuana. “They lost their (hunting) licenses and firearms for 24 hours,” said Josh Lockwood, Josh Lockwood officer. “There is no tolerance.” Being impaired while hunting poses a public

risk and could also impact the environment. “We’re talking about safety and being able to properly identify the (animal) species you are shooting at,” said Lockwood. “We don’t want people using a controlled substance with firearms in the bush.” In a case on the weekend, one individual told conservation officers his marijuana was for medical purposes. “He was still suspended,” said Lockwood. Conservation officers also have the authority to take someone’s driver’s license if they are found to be over the legal alcohol limit. “There are lots of people in the backcountry and we can’t have impaired drivers on forest service roads,” said Lockwood.

North Okanagan residents are urged to check their tires before hitting the road this winter. Rules regarding winter tires have changed in B.C. between Oct. 1 and March 31. “Chains are only required for commercial vehicles and residential vehicles must use winter (snowflake) tires or M&S (mud and snow) tires,” said Gord Molendyk, with the RCMP. “For the safety of you and

your family, the RCMP recommend the snowflake tires in the mountains because they’re designed for those conditions.” That position is also held by the Ministry of Transportation. Signs are posted along the designated highways to advise motorists where winter tires are required. This includes Highway 97 to Kelowna and Kamloops and Silver Star Road. “We recommend you start to take precautions if you go over

PROUDLY SPONSORED BY:

the Coquihalla Highway or the Rogers Pass,” said Molendyk. There is a $125 fine for not having the proper tires on your vehicle. “If you get involved in a motor vehicle accident, you could face some charges,” said Molendyk. Tires must also have 3.5 millimetres of tread. “Put a penny with the head upside down in the tread and if you can see the Queen’s head visibly, you don’t have enough tread,” said Molendyk.

Oyama intersection a concern kevin parnell Black Press

With negotiations to hand over control of Pelmewash Parkway from the provincial government to the District of Lake Country still underway, one intersection on the parkway continues to be a problem, according to a district councillor. Owen Dickie says when Ministry of Transportation opted to turn the intersection of Pelmewash and Oyama Road from a four-way stop into a two-way stop with through traffic on Pelmewash, Owen Dickie it had a significant and negative effect in Oyama. “The difficulty with this intersection is this is right in the middle of our community (Oyama),” said Dickie. “The majority of kids who go to Oyama Traditional School live on the opposite side of Pelmewash. It’s really unsafe. You have young people trying to cross four lanes of traffic. The community is being divided again.” Dickie says he’s troubled with the way the government has communicated with the district on the issue. In correspondence with the ministry, Dickie was told the government consulted with the district before making the decision. But he says that doesn’t appear to be true. “They say they want to listen to the public but it was quite obvious they didn’t,” said Dickie. “This is the beginning of a recipe for disaster.” In an e-mail to Dickie about the issue, Lake Country administrator Alberto De Feo says the district was not consulted before the decision was made. “Our council was not consulted and I was not made privy to their (Ministry of Transportation) decision until after the fact and members of the public contacted my office,” wrote De Feo, who said he has sent a letter to the ministry expressing his concern. “The council was made aware of the change after the fact and passed a resolution (last month) that the district request that the subject intersection be configured back as it was before the change. We

offered and continue to offer to pay for the cost of reversing the intersection to the original configuration.” De Feo also wrote that Lake Country and the ministry have worked well on numerous different projects, including the devolution of Pelmewash Parkway to district control, but he says the the issue at Pelmewash and Oyama Road is a critical one. “We believe this to be a different issue than the devolution of the asset to the district and we see this as critical to move along negotiations on the devolution,” wrote De Feo. “We will continue to negotiate in good faith on the devolution of Pelmewash Parkway but the solution to this particular issue will be pivotal to a rapid and positive conclusion of our negotiations.”

It’s metal mayhem in an enclosed area. The Armstrong Demo Derby, after making a spectacular return in 2013, is set for Sunday at 11:30 a.m. at the Interior Provincial Exhibition grounds. Gates open at 10 a.m. The event made a comeback after an absence of more than a decade last October, and it was obvious the derby had been missed by fans. An overflow crowd jammed every seat at the IPE grandstand to catch glimpses of oldstyle cars and trucks plowing into each other. “I’m sure we’ll have another pretty good turnout this year,” said event organizer Lyle Williamson. Cars, trucks and the always popular powder puff divisions return but there’s a new class for the 2014 derby: mini vans. “They’ll be doing some figure eight racing in the ring for a couple of heats,” said Williamson. “It will be full-contact figure eight racing, like a hit-to-pass style, but we don’t want them to destroy each other because they will derby at the end.” Drivers will be competing for $7,000 in prize money, along with trophies. The event is expected to run throughout the afternoon. Three food vendors have been confirmed for the event and Williamson is working on adding a fourth. Tickets will be available at the gate (cash only, no debit) and are $15 for adults, $10 for students and seniors. Kids under 12 get in free (maximum two per adult). If any large groups would like to purchase tickets in advance, they can contact Parks and Recreation at 250-5469456, or Williamson, by phone at 250-5469115 or by e-mail at derby13@telus.net.

Games on for Vernon quartet Tyler lowey

Morning Star Staff

A trio of defencemen and one forward from Vernon have made the ringette U20 Team B.C. for the 2015 Canada Winter Games. The four girls found out that they made the team in mid-August and took part in their first training camp in Salmon Arm at the end of that month. “I was really excited when I found out I made it. It’s really nerve racking when you try out for a team with such a high level of competition and all the girls trying out were so good,” said Teigan Moore who will play on the wings for Team B.C. “I was just so excited to make it.” Tryouts began in spring with a camp each month. They started with 80 girls and finished with 18 of the province’s best prospects. The Games take place Feb. 13-March 1 in Prince George. This team is looking to improve on the 2011 Winter Games team that finished 1-2 in Halifax. When it comes to ringette coaches, the ring stops with Cathy Lipsett. She has been at the helm for more that 20 years and captured gold and bronze medals in the past at the Games. “I’m feeling really positive so far,” said Lipsett, as the team geared up for a late-summer tournament in Edmonton. “We have some very promising players here.”

Tyler lowey/Morning STar

Erin Banning (from left), Megan Weatherill, Melanie Wakutz and Teigan Moore will play ringette with Team B.C. at the Canada Winter Games, Feb. 13-March 1, in Prince George. Added Moore: “I think we have a really good team, we are hard workers and we are there for the same reason and we all love each other.” The girls went through several team-bonding exercises including hiking the Enderby cliffs and competitions off the ice during a fiveday training camp.

“Camp was such a blast. We did so many activities I wasn’t expecting to do at a ringette camp,” said 19 year-old Melanie Wakutz. “We did an aquafit class, which was harder than you would think and played a lot of games off the ice. The girls are so much fun to be around.” Waktuz is a former centre who

switched to defence during the tryouts and loves her new role on the squad. “As a centre, I was always staying back in the play. I like defence better because I like preventing goals and I am a way better skater backwards,” she said. The VSS grad attended the University of Calgary last year and

took a few general courses to set her up for nursing while playing on the ringette team. Waktuz is too old to play in the Thompson Okanagan Ringette League, so she will travel to Kelowna a few times a week to play Masters. Like Waktuz, Erin Banning is a VSS grad and is taking courses to align herself into the nursing program at UBC Okanagan this fall. The 5-foot-8 defencemen Banning is an on-again, off-again Canucks fan. “I wasn’t a big fan of the (Roberto) Luongo trade. We will see how they do without him,” said Banning, who switched from boys hockey to ringette following her Bantam year because she liked playing against girls better. Unlike Banning, Megan Weatherill has been playing ringette for most of her life. “I started playing when I was four, I just love it and I’m really looking forward to the Games,” said Weatherill, a Kal grad who will wear No. 3 on the provincial team. Weatherill loved the gym and cooking classes in high school, adding: “I like to think I am a pretty good cook.” Weatherill has no immediate plans for post-secondary. She is taking some time away from school to train for the Games and work.

Vipers bolster blueline with Grizzly veterans GraEME CorBETT Morning Star Staff

The Vernon Vipers will have two new faces on their blueline tonight (7 p.m.) when they host the Salmon Arm Silverbacks at Kal Tire Place. In his first act as GM since returning to the club early in the season, Mark Ferner acquired a pair of defencemen in a four-player B.C. Hockey League deal with the Victoria Grizzlies Wednesday afternoon. Joining the Snake Pit are 18-year-old Mitch Meek and 20-year-old Brandon Egli, in exchange for d-man Jake Emilio, 20, and forward Ayden MacDonald, 18. Vernon will also receive future considerations as part of the trade. “When you can add two quality MacDonald players – and we don’t lose any years – you have to look at it,” said Ferner, renowned for his defence-first approach to coaching. Meek and Egli, both Victoria products, are BCHL veterans, having appeared in a combined 211 games. That is 134 more games than the rest of Vernon’s defence combined. Emilio “It’s going to be a while before some of the newer guys get comfortable in the league,” said Ferner. “These kids were sought after by other teams in the league.

Both kids have scholarships, they played for a good program in Victoria. We feel like we’re bringing in a couple of experienced guys. Meek has one goal and one assist in six games with the Grizz, and is committed to the NCAA Division 1 Clarkson Golden Knights for next season. He compiled 4-20-24 in 93 career games. Egli, who is committed to the UMass Minutemen, racked up 11 goals and 35 points in his third season with Victoria. He has yet to register a point in two games this year. “I’m pretty excited about it, especially playing for coach Ferner,” said Egli, who drove out Thursday in time for afternoon practice. “And Vernon’s such a great hockey town. “It’s always a bit of a culture change going from town to town, but going to the Interior I was happy about it.” Egli, who played his first year in Trail, was happy to learn Meek would be joining him in Vernon. “He’s a Victoria boy too, and he’s a good guy. If I had to pick somebody to come out there with, Meek would be a good choice.” Meek had to fly to Kelowna Thursday as his car was in the shop. He is familiar with the Okanagan having played with Kelowna’s Pursuit of Excellence academy as a 14-year-old. “It was definitely shocking, but I’m looking at it all positively,” said Meek, of being traded for the first time. “You just want to prove them (Grizzlies) wrong. There’s no hard feelings though; they gave me two great years. “I’m excited to get in the swing of things early. I don’t know where I’ll slot in, I’m just going to come there and work hard.”

Ferner did his homework on his two new d-men by calling former Grizzlies’ coach Bill Bestwick, who gave them both solid character references. “It made that a bit easier, because we know we’re getting two good guys,” said Ferner. The Silverbacks (3-2-0-2), who are one point ahead of Vernon (3-3-0-1) in the Interior, gave up a two-goal lead as they fell 3-2 to the host Surrey Eagles in overtime Wednesday night. It was their second straight OT loss. Ferner admitted he has been so busy focussing on his own team that he knows little about the ‘Backs. However, he can lean on assistant coaches Kevin Kraus and Eric Godard, who were both with Salmon Arm last season. “Obviously, Krauser and Eric will know that team better,” said Ferner. “We’re just going to focus on us. I’m just trying to work with the team and get a foundation in place that they can believe in.” The rejuvenated Chilliwack Chiefs (5-1), under new head coach Jason Tatarnic (formerly coached the Woodstock Slammers) will visit the Big Wheel Saturday (6 p.m.). In other Wednesday night action, the Penticton Vees doubled the Merritt Centennials 4-2 in front of 2,114 fans at the South Okanagan Events Centre. The Vees (7-1) are first overall, while Merritt and West Kelowna share second in the Interior at 5-2. SNAKE BITES: Vernon d-man Kenny Citron will miss this weekend’s action with an upper-body injury, while fellow blueliner Luke Shiplo is still recovering from a broken hand suffered in main camp... Bestwick, now a scout with the NHL St. Louis Blues, was at Viper practice Thursday afternoon.

Rockets blast Broncos Black Press Sports

Carter Rigby scored twice and Jackson Whistle stopped 18 shots for his first shutout of the season as the Kelowna Rockets downed the road-weary Swift Current Broncos 4-0 in WHL action before 4,500 fans Tuesday night at Prospera Place. Justin Kirkland got the 7-0 Rockets off to a good start with his fourth goal of the season just 56 seconds into the

opening period. Whistle wasn’t overly busy against the Broncos who were playing their fifth games in eight nights. Rigby scored midway through the second and third periods for his fourth and fifth goals of the season, before Cole Linaker clicked with under five minutes to play in the third period. Austin Glover had a pair of assists on Rigby’s markers.

(Vernon) slipped a pass in to Graeme Lewis (Prince George), who dribbled in to draw the defenders and then threaded the ball to Quibell, who tapped in the first goal. Just before the end of the first half, Coquitlam pressed into the box and a quick flick looked dangerous but keeper Carl Vandekraats (Kelowna) snagged the attempt. In the second half, TOFC went on a fiveminute blitz and at 55 minutes, Ethan Beselt (West Kelowna) passed to Glennon, who maneuvered across the top of the box and went top shelf. Two minutes later, TOFC (2-1-1) broke forward when Scott Cramer (Williams Lake) intercepted the ball and after a series of quick midfield passes, buried a hard, low shot. Another two minutes later and Quinn Large (Kelowna) cut in from the right and passed to Quibell who one-timed a shot. The keeper dove and blocked the shot, but Quibell collected his rebound. Coquitlam dropped to 1-3. Surrey United and Coastal F.C. share the top of the table at 3-0-1. TOFC take Thanksgiving off and host the Fusion (0-3-1) Saturday, Oct. 18 at Mission Sports Fields.

The Mt. Boucherie Bears dispatched the Fulton Maroons 54-6 in Okanagan Junior Varsity Football Association play Tuesday in West Kelowna. Caden Doyle hauled in a 13-yard touchdown strike from quarterback Ike Olson for Fulton’s score. Olson was 6-for-19 and 102 yards passing. Doyle registered 102 yards on six catches. Logan Higgs ran the ball a dozen times for 55 yards, while Ethan Eisenhauer earned 25 yards on eight touches and Cole Hunter rushed eight times for 21 yards. On defence, Doyle and Kyle Karens each pocketed three tackles. “This was an embarassing loss for our team,” said Mike Scheller. “As

head coach, I take responsibility for our team’s performance. I did not do a proper job of getting these kids ready. Mt. Boucherie is a far superior team than ours but we should have competed better. “Defensively, we are weak. We do not come up hard to support the run and we need to tackle better. We give up far too many big plays. “Offensively, we held on to the ball for some long drives. We ground out some first downs, but lack the explosive play. Caden Doyle has been a great player for us. He competes for every ball in the air and blocks well. Logan Higgs and Cole Hunter ran the ball effectively for us.” The Fulton juniors host the Westsyde Blue Wave of Kamloops in league play Wednesday (3:30 p.m.).

John Garvie only leaves the field when the half-time whistle goes. Otherwise, he controls the VSS Panthers’ offence as quarterback and switched to defensive back on defence. Garvie, a Grade 12 student, was named the B.C. AA Varsity Football Association Athlete of the Week. He completed seven passes for 140 yards and three touchdowns as the Panthers ambushed the South Kamloops Titans 55-16 in their season opener last Friday at Hillside Stadium. “John has performed at a high level in all of our games this year,” said VSS head coach Sean Smith. “He always makes great decisions with the ball and made two great long ball passes on Friday.” Garvie, who also stars for the VSS basketball team, ran for a pair of rushing scores against South Kam. Smith counts on Garvie to accomplish even more as the year

Bridge by Phillip Alder NO-TRUMP IS OFTEN IFFY WITH A VOID Voltaire said, “Chance is a word void of sense; nothing can exist without a cause.” He is being haphazard, not giving probability a percentage. We hold a void occasionally at the bridge table. When you have a void and a decent suit fit, usually it will be better to play in that suit than in notrump -- as in this deal. I agree with South’s opening bid, even though a two-club response would have been a tad uncomfortable. A good partner would have shown a major. Here, though, North responded with a gameinvitational three diamonds. (Some players would have preferred a game-invitational

two no-trump. Best is a twodiamond inverted minor-suit raise, if you employ that gizmo.) Over three diamonds, South decided that his void justified heading for game. His threeheart rebid initially promised a heart stopper and suggested a black-suit weakness for notrump purposes. North, with both black suits held, rebid three no-trump. Then South judged well not to pass. The play was interesting in five diamonds. West led a low club, and East covered dummy’s card as cheaply as possible. Declarer ruffed, played a trump to dummy’s queen, cashed the heart ace, played a heart to his king, ruffed a heart in the dummy, ruffed a club in his hand,

ruffed his last heart (East discarded a club), ruffed the club nine, played a spade to dummy’s king, and ruffed the club king. West, down to two spades and two diamonds, overruffed and cashed his high trump, but then had to lead away from the spade queen into South’s ace-jack. Cool!

Water project cost increases Morning Star Staff

High tender prices have put a damper on an Armstrong water main upgrade project. The Pleasant Valley Road project was put out to tender in late August and closed Sept. 11. Five bids were received, with the lowest price for the project coming in at just under $270,400. The city budgeted $180,000 for the upgrade. “The tendering and construction date for this project was selected after the IPE, with a specified construction completion of Nov. 15, 2014,” said Tim Perepolkin, the city’s public works manager. “We believe the tender prices may be escalated due to the late construction season and short work window before the onset of winter.” Council voted unanimously with the staff recommendation to not award the tender. Staff will revisit the scope of the project and the upgrade could be back on the city’s books for 2015.

Aircraft lands safely Morning Star Staff

Emergency personnel responded to an incident at Kelowna International Airport Wednesday. At about 9:28 a.m., the pilot of a private aircraft on approach to YLW advised the air traffic control tower that he suspected his plane may have a hydraulic leak. “Kelowna airport’s aircraft rescue firefighters, the Kelowna Fire Department, B.C. Ambulance and the RCMP were on scene for the two-alarm standby,” said Jenelle Hynes, YLW spokesperson. “The aircraft with three people on board landed safely at 9:36 a.m. without incident.” YLW emergency crews conducted a routine check of the runway for foreign object debris while the aircraft taxied to a hanger for a mechanical review. No commercial flights at YLW were affected.

DRIVE UP & DROP OFF YOUR DONATION OF CLOTHING AND HOUSEHOLD ITEMS

WHEN CUSTOMERS CHOOSE TO DONATE THEIR CLOTHING AND HOUSEHOLD ITEMS, THE IMPACT IS FELT AROUND THE WORLD. Not only do donations of clothing and household items benefit worthy nonprofits such as the Canadian Diabetes Association and the people they serve…they also benefit the community and planet earth. The Canadian Diabetes Association is a nonprofit organization that helps lead the fight against diabetes by helping people with diabetes live healthy lives as researchers work to find a cure. For over 60 years the Vernon community has generously supported the Canadian Diabetes Association, but given the recent economic state, contributing financially is proving to be more and more difficult for many residents. Through their unique partnership with Value Village thrift stores in the Vernon area, the Canadian Diabetes Association is able to continue their valuable mission despite the economic crunch. Now customers can support this worthwhile organization simply by donating their gently-used clothing and household items. DONATE A LITTLE, DO A LOT For nearly 60 years, Value Village has built a bridge between donors…people who choose to give their goods a second life by donating them instead of throwing them away, and thrift shoppers…people who see the value in purchasing used goods. Ultimately, this union benefits nonprofits like the Canadian Diabetes Association as well as the planet. In fact, every year

Value Village provides vital funding to more than 155 nonprofit organizations across the globe and helps to keep over 650 million pounds of reusable items out of landfills. DRIVE UP & DROP OFF In order to make supporting your favorite nonprofit organization even easier, Value Village has opened a new Donation Drop Spot in the Vernon Square Shopping Center in front of London Drugs on 32nd Street. The new attended Drop Spot location makes for a fast, friendly, and convenient donation experience. The community can also donate at any Value Village location – or directly to any one of their nonprofit partners.

It takes a true ensemble to tango Kristin Froneman Morning Star Staff

They face each other, man and woman, hearts pounding as the piano, violin and accordion play out the syncopated rhythm. In an arms-length embrace, they glide as one across the dance floor, stepping in beat to the music, before turning in a sweeping motion. All that’s needed is a Zorro-like mask and a rose clenched in between the teeth. This scenario is what many people imagine when they think of the tango – or at least, the Dancing with the Stars version of the classic Argentine dance. Montreal musician Romulo Larrea hopes to educate and enlighten on that perception. He has been bringing the traditional music and dance that dates back 150 years to the lower class districts of Buenos Aires, and to Larrea’s birthplace of Montevideo, Uruguay, to Canadian and worldwide audiences now for the past 40 years. Larrea, who leads his self-titled ensemble to perform Tango: A Passion of a Lifetime at the Vernon Performing Arts Centre Oct. 18, says the fiery ardor and sure footed-ness of the traditional art form is what audiences will see, and not the made-for-TV versions of the tango, so often seen in the media. “I am most proud to integrate the old country traditions and with my idols of tango so that when people see it they say ‘Ah, that’s tango,’” said Larrea. With the word coming from the Latin “tangere”, meaning touch, tango is the language between two people and the restraint and sensuality that is created in this erotically charged art form. A composer and musical director, Larrea is arguably Canada’s own tango maestro. “People are associating my name with

tango,” said Larrea. “It is an honour when they say tango arrived (to Canada) in me.” Larrea dreamed up the concept for Tango: A Passion of a Lifetime several years ago, and has since worked tirelessly in preparation for its debut. He created the show so that a first timer to tango would get as much out of the experience as someone who knows the dance and its accompanying repertoire. The project boasts brand new repertoire composed by Larrea and the whole performance is led by Larrea on bandoneón, which is similar to a concertina, or small accordion, and has that melancholy sound synonymous with the tango. Larrea was given his first bandoneón by his father at the age of 10, and began studying the instrument with Professor Rolando Gavioli in his native Montevideo. In the 1960s, Larrea formed his first ensemble, began composing, recorded his first album and worked with several orchestras in Montevideo and Buenos Aires. After settling in Quebec in the 1970s, he founded one of the very first tango groups in Canada. At the end of the 1980s, Larrea worked with master tango composer Astor Piazzolla in South America. When he returned to Montreal, Larrea made his debut as a soloist with the Quebec Symphonic Orchestra and developed a new musical approach that led to the creation of the Romulo Larrea Tango Ensemble. With the ensemble, Larrea has performed to audiences around the world: New York, GET UPBuenos TO A Aires, in the Rome, Luxembourg, Netherlands, and throughout California. “No matter where we are, on what stage, in what country, the show is always the same: world class, real tango,” he said.

hen Macy Gray was a child, chances are she heard The 5th Dimension’s Stoned Soul Picnic blaring from a stereo on a summer afternoon. The 5th Dimension’s song didn’t deliver on its promise but Gray sure did on her eighth album, Dean Gordon-Smith The Way. The husky voiced soul singer/songwriter stakes a claim as the undisputed queen of the blissed-out soul slacker divas. In fact, she probably invented the position. The Way isn’t a dynamic album but Gray’s well deserved reputation as a vocal personality floats the album’s slow drifting boat.

The songs float by in a comfortable haze until Gray gets ambitious with a melodic Earth, Wind and Fire type disco track, Hands. The song’s melodic appeal is upbeat enough for a single but it lacks the album’s lazy charm. Gray purrs her way along unhurriedly and after awhile she gets her point across. There’s no big moments and certainly no drama. A big smiley face should be stuck on the CD cover but that’s not to say The Way doesn’t have momentum. The songs have a slow burn that moves like molasses: the most medicated tracks start the record (the self explanatory Stoned and Bang Bang) and move through classy R&B (First Time) to ramp up with a sophisticated party song, Need You Now. There’s no flash or brilliance here and the songs are set low but Gray’s performance and the dusky sound of the spare production have an appeal that lies in wait.

This demon doll is rather static Annabelle

Reel Reviews

Taylor and Howe

did make me jump, it was a cheap scare. TAYLOR: Agreed, jump scares are there and are effective. There were a couple of truly scary moments as well, enough to garner a passing grade from me. I was a little disappointed that Annabelle didn’t move. I was hoping that she’d just blink, or perhaps move her eyes. However, once the demon started materializing, things became truly scary. At the risk of repeating myself, I wish there was more shown of what we’re finding scary in horror films. For instance, in one scene, a demon is seen at the end of a dark hallway. Rather than have him pop up, much closer for the cheap jump scare, I would prefer that he slowly walked down the hall toward us, becoming more visible and dragging out the scare. For some reason horror directors seem to want to stick to the tried and tired formula of jump scares interspersed between tiny glimpses of what is actually scary. HOWE: I liked that

Mia (Annabelle Wallis) interrogates Annabelle about her penmanship. you only got to catch glimpses of the demon. To me it leaves a little more to the imagination to make the figure complete, either that or they ran out of money to finish his costume. I will say he was a petty damn good looking

demon from his horns all the way down to his pointy chin. I think the makeup artist did a fantastic job not going way over the top with gory details or special effects, just how you would see him in your nightmares.

He reminded me of the Lincoln Imp. – Taylor gives Annabelle 3 ghost prams out of 5. – Howe gives it 3 Sunday mass services out of 5. The film is currently showing at the Galaxy Cinemas in Vernon.

hen a young couple expecting their first child suffer a home invasion of murderous occultists, a demon finds passage into the real world via a creepy doll named Annabelle. We say, “If he can’t have your soul, any soul will do.” TAYLOR: There’s not much to this movie, but I still enjoyed it. I’ve never seen the couple in the film, Mia and John Gordon (performed by aptly named Annabelle Wallis and Ward Horton), but they are capable enough performers to get through the film convincingly. Wallis has the bulk of the fear to carry as she is home alone all the time with their new baby and Annabelle. Annabelle, of course, is the star and she is terrifying, even just sitting there staring off into space. I don’t think I’m providing any spoilers by saying she never moves, but she does change expressions and positions, always when we’re not looking. Rounding out the performances are the excellent Alfre Woodard as the sympathetic friend and Tony Amendola as the earnest priest. HOWE: When The Conjuring came out last year it had some really good frights, yet to me Annabelle was a bit of a let down. Don’t get me wrong, Annabelle has its moments but nothing to make the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. And when it

Creating a place of belonging Vernon Community School students seek mentors to share their passions, interests and skills Katherine MortiMer Morning Star Staff

There is a talking stick, a pet rabbit and Friday jam sessions. But you won’t find any desks in the classroom of the Vernon Community School. Offered at no extra charge, the program at Fulton secondary school is in its first year of offering students in Grades 7 to 9 an alternative to the traditional classroom, while still following the B.C. curriculum. With teachers Murray Sasges and Kim Ondrik, VCS is “a place of mindful teaching and learning rooted in social justice grounded in the unique people, geography, economy and challenges of the North Okanagan.” Community mentors are a key part of the program. So far, students have learned from mentors on subjects as wide-ranging as bicycle repair and music. “This is an invitation to people in the community to hook up with us,” said Ondrik. “We are not a traditional setting; this might not be done in a certain time frame — we might have one mentor who is not available until 4 p.m. and we can make that work.” On Tuesday morning, students each held the classroom’s talking stick while sharing what kind of skills they would like in a mentor. The ideas were as varied as the students: metal working, car restoration, horses, guitar, blacksmithing, writing, making video games, cooking, fireworks and geology. Grade 8 student Amelia Hladych is looking for a mentor who can nurture her interest in woolcraft and animals. “This program is really awesome,” she said. “It was really overwhelming at first as I knew nothing about the program.” Formerly a student at the Waldorfinspired Cedarbridge School in Lumby, Amelia lives on Vale Farms and plans a future career as a farmer. Grade 7 student Miika Isnardy became interested in the program after discussing it with a friend. “We thought it would be fun to sign up together and then she moved to Ontario,” she said. “At first I wasn’t sure, but now I’m in love with this program.

William Oordt-Bosman (left), Amelia Hladych, Cole McKay and Miika Isnardy are in their first few weeks as students at Vernon Community School, the newest academy in the Vernon School District, operating at Fulton secondary school for students in Grades 7 to 9. “I was being bullied in my last school, here it’s so much better, and the high school kids have been really nice to us as well.” Isnardy said the communal style of learning at VCS appeals to her. “We have guidance from Murray and Kim, but we don’t need them to tell us what to do,” she said. She is looking for a mentor for interior design and decorating but also hopes to one day be well-known as both an actress and a prima ballerina. Cole McKay is looking for a mentor experienced in 3D design. VCS does not operate as a traditional classroom, but McKay said he has nothing else to compare it to. “I’ve been homeschooled my whole life, so I don’t know the difference,” he said. “So far, it’s a lot better than what I’ve heard of school — it’s a lot more relaxed and I’m loving it.” Grade 7 student William Oordt-Bosman made the switch from the French immersion

program he’s been in since kindergarten. “This seemed like fun and here you learn about things you are interested in,” he said. “I like the school very much.” He’s looking for a mentor who can help further his interests in architecture, graphic design and Web design. For Sasges, the program helps students to build self-regulation. “Kids want to be told what to do, as that’s what they’re used to, but we want them to figure out for themselves what needs to be done,” said Sasges. Through Sasges’ Global Education program for Grade 11 students at Fulton and Ondrik’s Grade 6/7 classroom, Ozone, at Ellison elementary, both teachers have for years seen the power of this kind of learning and were inspired to offer this to more children in the community. “This program has exceeded my expectations,” said Ondrik.

Both teachers have observed the respect and kindness that the students have shown towards one another. “And the generosity of Fulton has been amazing, the whole school,” said Ondrik. “I’ve heard really positive comments towards the kids, and (principal) Ken Gatzke has done everything in his power to give us peace of mind. We’ve had no issues whatsoever.” The academy will engage students in community projects, and so far, the program has taken part in the Tweed Ride last Sunday and volunteering at Common Threads. “The kids all feel like they belong, and belonging is the soil in which learning happens,” said Ondrik. “We are accountable to them and we really do believe we are co-creating this with the parents and the kids,” said Ondrik. “It’s been this really beautiful thing. When trustees approved the program last winter, district superintendent Joe Rogers said the only stipulation for it to go ahead was that it needed 56 students signed up by February. “We had 120 families apply and we now have 57 kids in the program,” said Sasges. “We have a multi-generational approach here, so we may have Grade 6 kids spending time with Grade 12 kids, having that cross-age stuff where they can learn from each other. “You can’t prepare stuff for this. You have to prepare yourself each day and now we are working with the community to learn with us. Much of what we are doing is building capacity in kids to build responsibility in them. It’s about the community aspect of the community school — we want everyone to be part of the school.” As teachers, Ondrik and Sasges said the program has challenged them and re-ignited their passion for teaching, which they are doing in a collaborative way. “We challenge each other and help each other grow,” said Ondrik. Social justice is taking place as well. When three kids were showing up without lunch, parents began to bring in extra food, while someone else donated a fridge. “So then we had this discussion of ‘what is wrong with this picture,’ and the kids just got involved and started bringing in food to share,” said Ondrik. “We want to pave a way that is socially just and respectful. We are not trying to be renegades — we are trying to be more rigorous.” Applications will be available for the 2015/16 school year in January.

Fundraiser helps both globally and locally Katherine MortiMer Morning Star Staff

Trinity United Church has a long history of raising money for the Canadian Foodgrains Bank. And with its upcoming fundraiser, the Vernon church is once again committing funds to the organization, while at the same time helping out a school lunch program. The Canadian Foodgrains Bank is one of Canada’s leading food assistance organizations. Its mission is to end global hunger by collecting grain and cash donations for projects submitted by their 15 member agencies. “The bank was started 31 yars ago in Winnipeg, by a group of four Winnipeg residents in a time when there was a lot of hunger in Africa due to crop failure, but there was a surplus in Canada,” said Joanna Rainer, chair of the Outreach Committee at Trinity United Church. “So grain farmers were thinking ‘is there some way we can get this surplus grain to countries that need it.’ “It was a bit like a food bank, but on a bigger scale.” The Christian-based organization started with the Mennonite Central Committee but now has 15 member agencies and churches across Canada, including the United Church of Canada, the Anglican Church of Canada, the Salvation Army, Adventist Development and Relief Agency, Canadian Baptist Ministries, Canadian Catholic Organization for Development & Peace, Canadian Lutheran World Relief, Christian and Missionary Alliance in Canada, Pentecostal

Thanks to Canadian farmers, 15 member agencies, and the federal government matching funds, the Canadian Foodgrains Bank’s mission is to end global hunger. Trinity United Church holds a fundraiser on Thursday for the bank. Assemblies of Canada, Evangelical Missionary Church of Canada, Nazarene Compassionate Ministries Canada, P r e s b y t e r i a n World Service and Development, World Relief Canada and the Christian Reformed Church. “I think the work they have done has been so successful that they are actually two of Canada’s main food assistance agencies, and any donations are matched to a maximum of $25 million a year by the federal government.” Rainer said the bank has three main areas of focus. The first is food assistance, for people who are starving and who need food immediately. “The big focus now is Syrian refugees, within Syria and those in refugee camps, and the Sudan is another big focus,” she said. The second focus is on food security, looking at funding projects that look at ways to help people in developing countries become more self-sufficient. Some of those projects would

include conservation farming techniques, dam projects and irrigation projects. And the third focus is on nutrition, for those people who do have food but perhaps have poor nutrition, with a particular focus on pregnant and nursing women and children. “Trinity United Church has had a long history in the fall in recognition of World Food Day, a UN initiative,” said Rainer. “TUC has celebrated every year by having a campaign amongst the congregation where we raise money for the Foodgrains Bank. “What we’ve done in the last few years is we’re looking at both global and local needs, so within the congregation in the last few years we’ve split donations between the bank and Trinity that supplements between people’s visits to the local food bank; people can only go every two months, so TUC has its own little

food bank that has been well-supported by the congregation.” This year, the church will host a community event on Thursday — Oct. 16 is World Food Day — from 6:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. “We have been so impressed by learning about the food grains bank and what they do,” said Rainer. “Because there are so many denominations involved, our idea this year was to bring it to the wider community, so we invited two speakers from the Canadian Foodgrains Bank who have been involved for quite a few years.” In addition to raising money for the bank, the event will also support the Fulton secondary school family lunch program. “When we were planning this event, our outreach committee discussed splitting proceeds with a local organization in need and lo and behold, a letter came across my desk

The Shadow of Death. Ecclesiastes has recorded his conviction on the state of the dead who perish and pass into eternal oblivion in the grave. Though death is the destiny of all flesh, yet man should not be despondent, brooding over what he cannot change, rather he should exact what joy from life in the blessing received: bread, wine, joy, ointment, garment, and wife. God has given these things to man that he might have some measure of happiness amidst life’s sorrows and vexations.

from Fulton vice-principal Melanie Jorgensen, as I am involved in the Emergency Food Action Network. “She said they have noticed an increase in hungry kids at their school and what Melanie found out is that our elementary schools are relatively well-served with donations, and when secondary schools went to the community to find donations, the local businesses are tapped out helping elementary schools so she was looking for community partners, not only at her school but in the future, so we said here’s a community need so we’ll split the donations.” The fundraiser takes place Thursday at Trinity United Church, 3300 Alexis Park Dr. A soup and bun dinner will be served at 6:30 p.m., followed by speakers Ron Klusmeier and Christina Bogucki from the Canadian

Drive What you can’t see is the 317 kgs that the ‘15 F-series has lost, thanks to that aluminum body and the increased use of high-strength steel in the frame – but, you can certainly feel it while driving. The truck is nimbler, has less wash in the corners and simply handles better. The cab is virtually silent and for comfort, the HVAC is split side-toside, front and rear. The hood and side windows have dropped in profile for better visibility, while the size, colours and quality of the computer generated gauges and controls simplifies operation while driving. I towed with the new truck and its manners are good if not improved. In part, this is assisted by the long list of towing features like trailer sway control; tow/haul mode; Dynamic Hitch Assist, SelectShift transmission and better tow mirrors. Off-road an electronic manual rear

differential locker has been added. This truck churns mud better than ever. Verdict Payload is up (to 900 kgs) and so is towing (approx. 5.5 tonnes) yet overall body weight is down by 317 kgs. Ford offers four engines and even the smallest 2.7L EcoBoost will still tow up to 3.8 tonnes. The cab is quieter, yet larger. The floor is flat yet has more storage compartments. The dash is less cluttered yet offers more information. Do you sense a theme here? Consider that the design phase of this truck took four years and the testing was the most intense ever. The result? A list of improvements a hockey rink long – that’s a fact. Now, how will they all work together? Well Ford’s claims will have to play out on roads, across Canada, in the coming years. But from what I’ve seen in Texas, I’d say Giddy Up!

Question of the Week The all-new Ford F-150 graces the front of Driveway this week as it looks to maintain its constant premier position as the truck of choice. What do its rivals have to do to make a bigger mark in sales? Go to DrivewayCanada.ca to submit your answer. QUESTION

Kia has an Electric Soul By Bob McHugh

30 minutes of, no special treatment, driving with frequent stops, starts, hill climbs and descents, the Soul EV showed 162 km was still available. That’s relevant, as the Soul EV’s officially rated driving range is 149 km. In addition to being quiet and fuel-free, Soul EV effectively matches the practical user features of its gasoline counterpart. It can seat 4 to 5 passengers and has the same large rear cargo area. Kia’s polymer (electrolyte) lithium ion battery pack is compact and easier to hide than others, as is can be molded into different shapes. In Soul EV it’s centrally fitted under the seats and a raised rear floor pan. The gasoline engine is replaced by a 109 horsepower liquid-cooled AC synchronous permanent magnet electric motor that can generate a whopping 210 lb-ft of torque. That’s 59 lb-ft more than the 2.0-litre gasoline engine version of Soul. Standing starts

Kia joins the growing list of electric vehicle (EV) manufacturers with Soul EV, a clever adaptation of its tall 5-door compact with the funky styling. The Kia Soul EV Although still a small slice of the overall car market, EV definitely rocks and sales are growing rapidly and is a must-drive for so is the public charge station anyone considering infrastructure that’s crucial to an EV. its success, especially in urban areas.

hind a hinged cover in the front grille. The smaller port accepts either a 120 volt (level 1) or a 240 volt (level2) charge connector. A portable level 1 unit is stored in the vehicle and Kia Canada will also provide Soul EV buyers with a level 2 charge unit (made by Bosch) for home installation, free of charge. The charger unit can also be used to pre-heat or pre-cool the Soul EV, while plugged into the grid. You can also program it to start or complete charging at a certain time. The level 1 charger plugs into any electrical outlet, but can take up to 24-hours to fully recharge the battery pack. A level 2 charger (with 30 amp service) cuts the maximum recharge time to under 5-hours. And a level 3 fast charge station can pump-in an 80 per cent charge in less than 30 minutes. We didn’t take it out on the freeway, but the Soul EV seemed very stable (it’s heavier then the gas engine Soul) and Kia claims a top speed of 145 km/hour. Kia also claims that it can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/hour faster (by 4 seconds) than a Nissan Leaf. It’s agile and peppy, with lots of initial get up and go, but it’s also no dragster. The two-tone gray interior theme came with attractive and contrasting blue stitching. Extensive use of bio-friendly interior materials also makes Soul EV the most eco-friendly vehicle made by Kia. It feature materials derived from organic substances such as sugar cane, corn, cellulose, and wood powder. The base edition of Soul EV is very well equipped and even comes with dual-zone climate control, voice-activated navigation and a rear view camera. A leather wrapped steering wheel is heated and also has both tilt and telescopic features. Moving up to EV Luxury adds features like leather (synthetic) upholstery, a heat pump (enhances the climate control system), cooled and ventilated front seats and heated rear seats. Soul EV is only available through selected Kia dealers in major Canadian urban centres (Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver). Unlike Quebec and Ontario, however, BC’s incentive program for eco-friendly vehicles ran out of cash back in March of this year. Soul EV does qualify for an $8,000 federal government rebate and that certainly helps make the purchase price more palatable. The Kia Soul EV definitely rocks and is a must-drive for anyone considering an EV in this price range.

Five things that will kill your classic car By Rob Sass

are often the happiest and most reliable old cars. Improper storage/rodents: This goes along with the above. Failure to drain fuel or use a stabilizer, not using jack stands, and making certain that anti-freeze is up to snuff all contribute to storage-related deterioration. But perhaps the most destructive force has four teeth and a naked tail — rats and mice, the same rodents that wiped out half the population of Europe by carrying Bubonic plague, can really mess with your classic car. They chew upholstery and insulation to make nests (in which they pee, poop and reproduce, not necessarily in that order), and worst of all, they chew on wiring harnesses where it isn’t apparent until something smokes or catches fire from behind the dash of your 1965 Mustang. Road Salt: Most everyone who has taken chemistry knows that the reaction between Sodium Chloride and steel yields iron oxide, more commonly known as rust. But few people truly realize how quickly

Contrary to general perception, most classic cars aren’t fragile flowers. In fact, many are anvil-tough, particularly American cars of the 1950s and 1960s, built with real Pennsylvania steel and very little plastic. But even these rolling bank vaults can be seriously screwed up by these five things: Non-use: This one is really is counterintuitive. When classic cars come to mind for many, the image of the trailer queen or museum piece looms large; in fact, most people think that these are the best cared-for cars. In actuality, they often turn out to be the most problematic cars when they are finally driven. Non-use is actually abuse — seals dry out and start to leak; gas gets stale and turns to varnish; batteries corrode when not removed; and tires get flat spots. Cars that are used and maintained on a regular basis, on the other hand,

Conversely, car. getting caught in the rain every now Rob Sass and then isn’t death for your classic, as long as nothing like carpets or trunk mats get soaked and stay wet. Some of the cleanest and most rust-free old cars we’ve seen come from the damp Pacific Northwest, where it snows little and road salt isn’t used. Old Tires: Most vintage cars don’t see 15,000 miles of use each year and, often, totally unsafe tires can look deceptively sound. In addition to tread wear, age, dry rot, flat spots and UV exposure can render tires unsafe. About six or seven years should be tops in terms of tire life, regardless of how the tires may look. A blowout or a thrown tread can not only threaten your life, it can severely damage your car severely as I found out first hand when an otherwise fine-looking tire threw a tread and put a football-sized dent in the lower quarter panel of a formerly pristine 1977 Datsun 280Z. Bad driving habits: The list of things that you can do to shorten the life of the major systems of a classic — from engine, transmission to differential — is long and beyond the scope of this article. But perhaps the most destructive thing you can do to a vintage car is to not let it warm up properly. I’ve witnessed tons of people who should know better start up a cold car and immediately zing it to the redline with the first shift. It’s painful to watch and even more painful to realize the harm that’s being done to the engine. Always drive gently until the car has reached normal operating temperature (usually around the mid-point of the temperature gauge). Rob Sass is the vice-president of content for Hagerty Insurance.

Arnold Jansen

Beatrice “Bea” Leona Sutton

He passed away due to complicaƟons from Alzheimer at the age of 91 years.

ĞĂƚƌŝĐĞ ͞ ĞĂ͟ >ĞŽŶĂ ^ƵƩŽŶ of Camrose, formerly of St. Lina, Alberta, passed away Monday, October 6, 2014 at the age of 90 years.

Arnold was born May 21, 1923 in Nijmegen, Netherlands, and entered into the presence of his Lord on Friday October 3, 2014.

Mourning his passing are his loving family; wife of 56 years Renate, his sons Arnie and Jim both of Vernon, sister and brother-in-law Joy and Pat O͛Brien of Vernon, brothersʹin law Goƪried (Christa) Schalm of Calgary, Erwin (Susan) Schalm of Kelowna, numerous nieces and nephews. Arnold was predeceased by parents Mechelina and Albert Jansen. Arnold arrived in Canada from the Netherlands in 1948 with his parents and seƩled in Vernon in 1949. The family business of Albert͛s Nursery was established shortly aŌer, and in operaƟon unƟl his reƟrement in 1989. Arnold was able to conƟnue his former rouƟne of tending to plants, shrubs, and trees, and interacƟng with clients at Swan Lake Nurseryland, thanks to Mike Kowaluk for giving him that opportunity. Arnold͛s second reƟrement came due to a heart aƩack. He then discovered the hobby of growing beauƟful Orchids, and enjoyed the associaƟon with other growers. An important part of his life was his faith and church, serving as head usher for many years. Everyone entering Faith BapƟst was met with a genuine and cheerful welcome, enjoying every moment of his ushering duƟes, even with a hug if he felt it was needed. Arnold liked to connect with people, anyƟme, anywhere, no maƩer who it was. For 18 years he was a faithful volunteer with his wife at the Upper Room Mission. With the Greater Vernon Garden City Society he found common ground to add beauty to the community. It was Arnold’s desire to establish a “Memory Lane”, which starts on 32 Street, west on 25 Avenue, with a trail system towards Okanagan Lake. It gave him saƟsfacƟon when it became reality with the help and support of countless individuals, civic, business, community organizaƟons, and others. Arnold enjoyed volunteering, for City Centennial year celebraƟon, and was a Boy Scout leader in his early years. Sincere thanks to our family physicians Dr. F. Dyck, Dr. R. Sawatzky, Dr. H. Gilchrist, and all the professionals at VJH. Also thank you to ER doctors; Dr. H zacyshyn, Dr. M Murphy and the 2nd Ňoor east, and Heron Grove coƩage 4 staī. A CelebraƟon of Life service will be held on Saturday October 11, 2014 at 2͗00 PM at Faith BapƟst Church, 3908 2ϳ Street Vernon, BC with recepƟon to follow downstairs. Pastor Len MiƩlestaedt will be oĸciaƟng. In lieu of Ňowers donaƟons may be made to Faith BapƟst Church which will be applied to meals for kids, or to the Alzheimer’s Society. Arrangements have been entrusted to Vernon Funeral Home, Phone: 250 542 0155. Condolences may be oīered at www.vernonfuneralhome.com
