News FOREST FIRES

Fire hazard enhanced by dry, hot weather Kathy Michaels When West Kelowna fire chief Jason Brolund starts his day this time of year he, like fire fighters across the valley, takes stock of his surroundings and prepares for the worst.

“Our department has a meeting every morning and we say, ‘What do we expect to see today? If there is a fire, what will be its behaviour? Is it windy or not?’” said Brolund, who’s in his first season in charge of the West Kelowna fire department but has 11 years as a key member of Kelowna’s FD under his belt.

What’s most dreaded is a “red flag day,” when fires behave most aggressively and erratically.

“That’s when we have temperatures of 30 C, humidity below 30 per cent, and wind speeds of above 30 km an hour,” Brolund said. “That’s called the 30-30-30 cross over.”

Even without that, though, fire fighting in the valley is a bit more complicated this year.

Summer conditions hit nearly a month-and-a-half earlier than usual, making interface areas tinder dry.

Worse yet, people have yet to learn how to make the community safe and human-caused fires are being sparked at a seemingly more rapid pace.

West Kelowna’s fire department battled back a hectare of flames in Rose Valley on Friday, while Kelowna dealt with a fire hours earlier in an East Kelowna neighbourhood. On Saturday, two more were sparked. One in Peachland and another in Lake Country.

“We can’t say if they were caused by campfires

SAWYER KLASSEN/CAPITAL NEWS

kmichaels@gkelownacapnews.com

Forest firefighters look for hots pots following an outbreak of a grass fire in East Kelowna last Friday.

Awareness about the fire hazard across the Central Okanagan is being raised by some additions at several regional parks. New Fire Hazard signs are up at key entrances to Glen Canyon, Rose Valley, Scenic Canyon and Mission Creek Regional Parks. or cigarette butts, but we know they were human caused,” he said, noting that whatever the cause, the approach is the same—something that’s changed with the lessons of previous fires under their collective belt.

“We will throw all the resources we have at events—especially on days like today (Tuesday)

when it’s warm and windy. We won’t hold anything back because we need to get to it when it’s small.”

Helping municipal fire departments get a jump on fire is the provincial Wildfire Management Branch.

“We could never bring the same kind of resources they bring

to bear,” Brolund said.

Anyone who’s seen a fire season knows that to be true. The telltale sound of a plane swooping overhead, followed by a red streak of fire suppressant falling on hillside trees and homes is standard practice for the provincial organization.

The Wildfire Management Branch also

keeps a nonstop watch on B.C., sending out a steady stream of bulletins on where fires are and how severe they’ve become. They also offer a state of affairs on pre-fire conditions.

Well ahead of schedule, they sent out a notice Tuesday stating that as of Friday at noon, all open fires—including campfires—will be prohibited throughout the entire Kamloops Fire Centre, which includes Kelowna. The burning prohibition covers all BC Parks, Crown lands and private lands, but does not apply within the boundaries of a local government that has forest fire prevention bylaws and is serviced by a fire department.

On the tail of that announcement, however, all local governments issued their own fire bans.

“As a result of extremely dry conditions and an extended period of hot, dry weather, local fire chiefs have decided to implement

the total ban on campfires within all local government jurisdictions of the Regional District of Central Okanagan, City of West Kelowna, District of Lake Country, District of Peachland and the Central Okanagan East and West Electoral Areas. Campfires are not permitted at any time within the City of Kelowna,” read the release.

As well, local bylaws prohibit the use of any fireworks at any time throughout most areas of the Central Okanagan.

Use of fireworks in the District of Lake Country and City of West Kelowna must be approved in writing by the fire chief.

Whether ending campfire season will help firefighting endeavors remains to be seen, but as the Wildfire Management Branch pointed out, the resources to fight fires is finite, and if a blaze naturally occurs they can’t split their attention to a campfire that ran out of control.

Anyone found in contravention of an open burning prohibition may be issued a ticket for $345, required to pay an administrative penalty of $10,000 or, if convicted in court, fined up to $100,000 and/or sentenced to one year in jail. If the contravention causes or contributes to a wildfire, the person responsible may be ordered to pay all firefighting and associated costs.

To report a wildfire or an open burning violation, call 1 800 6635555 or *5555 on a cellphone.

Sports fields not your average lawn Kelowna City Hall says sports fields require different care to keep them in good shape and to reduce the risk of player injuries.

They are mowed at a shorter height and watered more frequently than parks or home lawns.

“Park services has been receiving calls from residents concerned about daytime watering,” said Ted Sophonow, Kelowna parks, beaches and sports fields supervisor.

“While watering generally takes place overnight, the irrigation is sometimes tested during the day. These tests take place for a short period of time under the supervision of staff.

“Staff will also run short irrigation programs during hot weather to cool the surface temperature of turf to keep it healthy.”

Fatalities identified The Coroner has confirmed the identities of two persons who died following a motor vehicle incident near Tete Jaune Cache on June 26.

They were Paul John Constantineau, aged 28, of Thorsby, a small community in central Alberta, and Jamie Kathleen Doornbosch, aged 29, of Kelowna.

Constantineau was the driving as they traveled east on Highway 16 shortly after midnight.

About 36 kms east of Tete Jaune Cache, the car went into a ditch and rolled.

Both persons were deceased at the scene.

Q

How much does it cost to have Oxy-Dry® clean my carpet?

Some cleaning companies advertise prices that do not reflect the full cost of their service. Environmental fees, limitations on room sizes, moving furniture, certain stains, deodorizer, travel charges and extra charges for soiled carpet may be added. Protector is extra too and because the factory applied protector wears off, it should always be reapplied when cleaned. Upselling to the full service is inevitable and the bargain price that attracted you initially is usually much more than what you expected.

Oxy-Dry® takes a refreshing approach to pricing. With square foot pricing you only pay for the area we clean. We include everything for a fresh and odorless clean so there is never any upselling or unnecessary charges. The Oxy-Dry® system will include our exclusive ozone boost system naturally eliminating germs, bacteria, viruses and most odors as well as eradicating dust mites. Durashield protector is included to ensure a longer lasting clean. In addition, we move and replace most furniture, include spot and stain removal, are BBB accredited and offer a 30-day warranty. There’s more – carpets will dry in 30-60 minutes!

It’s true – Oxy-Dry® cleans better, dries faster and stays clean longer giving you real value! It’s your FRESH choice! www.oxy-dry.ca 250-860-4595 OZONE

Limits, the total he could have spent under its proposed rules and based on population estimates provided by B.C. Stats, was $73,532.

The committee proposed caps and formula-based spending for all municipal election candidates in B.C. Monday, saying the limits are needed to make running for local government accessible and affordable.

Community Minister Coralee Oakes has yet to table legislation making the spending limits law.

But imposing pending limits on municipal candidates is just fine with Basran.

While he had not heard about the committee’s proposals Monday because he was in a council meeting all day, when told about it Basran replied he had no problem with setting spending limits as long as they are reasonable.

“Anything that will help get good, quality people to run is fine with me,” said Basran.

But he also cautioned he does not feel money alone wins elections.

Basran said he has seen big spenders fail to win office in the past so it takes more than money to succeed in an election.

According to the committee, based on the current estimated population of the City of Kelonwa (121,000), the maximum a mayoral candidate could spend would be $73,532 and the maximum a councillor

candidate could spend would be $37,298.

In last November’s election, the top-spending councillor candidate was Brad Sieben, who spent $25,327 to get elected.

The second highest was newcomer Tracy Gray who spent $17,187, with the other six successful councillor candidates spending between $3,600 and $8,800.

The committee says mayoral candidates in communities with fewer than 10,000 residents should be limited to spending a maximum of $10,000, while a councillor candidate in those same communities should spend no more than $5,000.

For larger communities, the election spending would be set under the following formula: Mayoralty candidates: • First 15,000 population - $1/ person • 15,000 to 150,000 population - $0.55/person • 150,000 to 250,000 population - $0.60/person • More than 250,000 $0.15/person

Councillor candidates: • First 15,000 population - $0.50/ person •15,000 to 150,000 population - $0.28/person •150,000 to 250,000 population - $0.30/person •More than 250,000 $0.08/person According to figures released by the committee, that would mean the following limits locally: Kelowna mayor: $73,532 councillor: $37,298 West Kelowna mayor $24,734 councillor: $12,456 Lake Country mayor: $13,015 councillor: $6,508 Peachland (with a population under 10,000) mayor: $10,000 councillor: $5,000 The committee also wants third-party advertiser spending limited to five per cent of what a mayoral candidate is allowed to spend.

The spending limits would be in effect starting on Jan. 1 of each election year.

He’s not calling for a new city logo or slogan but Kelowna Mayor Colin Basran says a new city campaign to promote outdoor activity could translate into a “rebranding” of the city.

“This is how council believes we should be branding our community, as a great place for healthy and active living” said Basran at Monday’s city council meeting after hearing a staff presentation about the new Active By Nature campaign.

The campaign will promote and give residents and visitors information about many recreational activities here, including the city’s cycling and trail networks, paddling spots, swimming and running routes as well as its healthy city strategy and its strong neighbourhoods program.

Colin Basran

“This is how we should be promoting ourselves,” said Basran, unable to contain his enthusiasm for the Active By Nature campaign in his remarks.

In addition to an interactive map showing where trails and recreation “assets” are located as well as offering information about those assets, the city plans to install signs and has produced a slick video to promote the city as a recreational hotspot.

“We have many beautiful natural assets,” said Basran. “We’ve done a pretty good job of promoting them but this (program) just brings it to

a whole new level.”

In his remarks, Basran cited Boulder, Colorado, where he recently visited, and said that city is doing the same thing and has had great success.

Following the meeting, Basran said promoting outdoor recreation and healthy lifestyles is not only good for the health of city residents, it will also help it attract people to live here as more and more people looking to relocate want active

lifestyle options where they live.

He said while its good for those who already live here and those wanting to move here, tourism and even business attractions will benefit.

As part of the promotion, the mayor also urged members of the public attending the Canada Day celebrations downtown to take a form of “active transportation” such as cycling, to get the events.

Kelowna city council as approved a development permit for a proposed large new Lowe’s home improvement store on the site of the former Western Star truck plant on Enterprise Way. The 100,000-square-foot store, with a 381-stall parking lot in front would take up about 2/3 of the existing site.

The former truck plant building would be torn down to make way for the new store, to be located at the back of the lot.

The site is already zoned appropriately for the store, said city staff.

In a report to council, staff said the plan is to leave the portion of the site fronting Enterprise Way for future development.

Lowe’s is an American company that recently announced it was moving into Canada by buying up 13 former Target stores.

Target, another large U.S. retailer, closed its Canadian stores and excited the Canadian market after less than two years earlier this year. Lowe’s opted not to buy the former Target store in Kelowna’s Orchard Plaza.

news _____________________________________________________________________ WEST KELOWNA

Mayor Doug Findlater of the newly reclassified City of West Kelowna points to the municipality’s new logo as B.C. Premier Christy Clark applauds.

Premier joins in city status celebration awaters@kelownacapnews.com

It’s official. West Kelowna is now a city.

On Friday, Premier Christy Clark, MLA for Westside-Kelowna and a resident of the newly reclassified municipality, presented Mayor Doug Findlater with the rewritten West Kelowna letters patent, changing it to a city from a district municipality.

“This is a community of more than 30,000 people,” said Clark.

“It’s a big community.

You do something (like this) when it just makes sense.”

West Kelowna had tried in the past to become a city instead of a district municipality but had been rebuffed by Victoria.

This time, however, it was invited to apply for the change by Community Minister Coralee Oakes.

In changing to a city from a district municipality, West

Kelowna became the province’s 51st city and the second in the Central Okanagan, along with Kelowna. Peachland and Lake Country are both district municipalities.

But in terms of changing anything, that appears to be up to interpretation.

Findlater said he felt there could be tangible and intangible benefits but mainly it would ease confusion in some people’s minds with the surrounding Central Okanagan Regional District and the school district.

But he admitted,that would likely be for people not familiar with what a district municipality is.

As for cost, the mayor said that would be minimal, and pegged the total at about $3,000.

He said while city letterhead will not changed because it is now embedded in word processing computer programs, printed envelopes would be revamped when the

the premier lives in the municipality.

In handing over the new letters patent and hearing Findlater say he was surprised at the speed of the change, given the notoriously slow speed governments tend to work at, Clark quipped to with a broad smile: “I have influence.”

166 people—out of an estimated 23,000 eligible voters—opposed the move.

Findlater said he was surprised how quickly the province acted on the change.

West Kelowna officials had believed it would not happen until the fall.

But it helps when

current supply is used up.

City vehicles will have a decal printed to cover over the word “district” that now appears on decals on the sides of West Kelowna vehicles.

Earlier this year, West Kelowna garnered public approval for the switch by holding an alternate approval process. Only

Are You Taking Care of Your Shoulder Pain? Discover a New Option.

Shoulder aches and pains are common, but because our arms seldom get a rest, these aches often become chronic injuries: knots, spasms, frozen shoulder and tendonitis.

Many of us learn to live with it and think, “It’s a part of my lifestyle or job”. Many of us have had chronic tendonitis, making it difficult to lift a carton of milk or wash our hair. And many of us have exhausted a variety of therapies.

DR. RYAN HARRIS

Therapy, the only therapy I found to get rid of my pain and heal my injury.

Shockwave, developed to break up kidney stones, can break down scar tissue and stimulate new blood vessel growth, promoting proper muscle function and restarting the healing process.

It is in those injuries that have lingered for months or years where shockwave shines. If you have chronic shoulder injuries, don’t give up hope. If I had, I would not be in practice today.

Glenmore Chiropractic

Most therapies have an affect only on new injuries that are days to weeks old. Once scar tissue forms and healing stops (chronic), we are at the mercy of the injury.

Over and over in my practice I hear, “I have been dealing with this injury for months or years and tried everything. Nothing has worked… what do I do?”

According to the Journal of the American Medical Association 2005, shockwave therapy had a 91% success rate for the treatment of calcific Rotator Cuff Tendonitis.

Results are often experienced within a couple of visits and the treatment is covered by many insurance companies.

I tell them about the tennis elbow and shoulder tendonitis I had, both of which nearly caused me to shut down my practice. I talk about the multitude of therapies I tried to no avail. Then I talk about Shockwave

Opinion OUR VIEW

Our Canada is a country worthy of celebrating Happy birthday Canada.

Today marks the 148th birthday of our country, confederation dating back to July 1, 1867.

That is a long time for the miracle of ‘The Great White North’ to evolve and prosper, to create a country that dispels the idea that democracy, religious freedoms and a melting pot of ethnic groups can come together under one unified vision, shaky as it may be from time to time.

It’s not just hockey games that bring our country together and it is not our government. It is daily life, the relationships people forge in business, community and recreational leisure pursuits that create the foundation of what Canadians are all about.

Our history is young, compared to so many of the countries that surround us around the globe, but we have much to illustrate how the idea of peace and harmony can bring us together, rather than blow us apart.

Back in 1867, the big news of the day was the first telegraph ticker used by a brokerage house; somebody named Alfred Nobel invented dynamite; the U.S. purchased Alaska from the Russians for $7.2 million; and the first patents for barbed wire and ready-mixed paint were submitted.

Much has changed since then, but what remains as true today as it was in 1867 is that Canada offers an opportunity for hope and success, of a meaningful future. Canada is not perfect and with the success sometimes will come failures.

For many of us, we may be two, three, four generations removed from our immigrant relatives, but we are still a country of newcomers, with a very young historical perspective. Yet we continue to build something unique in our country, and how lucky we are to be a part of that process, of that history. That is something worth waiving a flag about today.

CAPITAL news AWARD-WINNING COMMUNITY NEWSPAPER

Local politicians will keep spending Kelowna’s mayor says money doesn’t City buy election success. Confidential And to back up his argument, Colin ALISTAIR Basran says he’s seen WATERS plenty of examples of big bucks failing to win public office.

But if money can’t bring would-be—or seasoned— politicians happiness, it sure can help.

The key to any election is getting the candidate’s name out there and that requires advertising. But advertising costs money and candidates with more, get more.

Of course if the candidate’s a dud, no amount of money is going to help. But a big bank roll can, and does, make the difference between a mediocre candidate’s success and a great candidate’s failure.

So Monday’s unveiling of an all-party MLA committee’s plan to set spending limits for future municipal elections in B.C. is interesting.

In the case of Kelowna, the proposed formula for spending would not change the election spending landscape much here.

Based on figures released by the committee, Basran was only a few thousand dollars above the $73,500 limit it would have mandated for a mayoral campaign here and no councillor candidate came close to spending the proscribed maximum of $37,200.

In fact, the potential new spending rules—likely to be approved by the B.C. Legislature—are more aimed at B.C.’s bigger cities in the Lower Mainland, where party

politics at the municipal level dominate.

While Kelowna flirted with slates in the last election, the two that ran here failed to gain much traction with voters and candidates running under both the Taxpayers First and the Prosper Kelowna banners failed to get elected.

In the case of Taxpayers First, most of the $43,196 it received in campaign donations for the five candidates it ran came from a controversial local businessman.

That, and wacky ideas like creating canals in the city, likely countered any inroads the campaign spending may have made.

For his part, Basran said he has no problem with limits on municipal campaign spending. He just wants to see good, qualified people running for office.

Don’t we all.

But the argument goes that by leveling the playing field in terms of campaign spending, the choice for voters will really come down to the candidates they think are the best—not the ones whose faces are plastered on more billboards, buses and benches.

But I don’t think the provincial move is going to stop candidates from getting their names out there at election time. That is, after all, the name of the game.

With social media now a way of life, there is plenty of other ways of advertising at virtually no cost. And, as we saw last November, the successful candidates know that and used it to its full potential.

So don’t expect much to change next time we head to the municipal polls in 2018. Campaigns will still cost money and, as is often the case, money talks.

Breakthrough Treatment for Toe Nail Fungus and Warts.

The days of hiding your feet because of unsightly toe nail fungus and warts are over.

At the very least, recycle please To the editor: I was amused to read Mr. Goddard’s letter of June 24. [Negative Content On Harper Means Capital News ‘Goes Straight Into The Garbage,’ June 24 Capital News.]

It is funny how a person can go from talking about how important it is to have free speech and thought, and an unbiased media, and then so quickly express their desire for

all those nasty progressives to just shut their mouths and give up expressing their own viewpoints in the face of a Conservative government.

I suppose these great Canadian values should only exist when the person speaking is saying what Mr. Goddard wants to hear.

Fortunately the Canada that progressives, liberals, and other small-C conservatives

treasure allows for an open forum for discussion and rational debate even when we don’t all agree.

On a final note, I would hope that a good Canadian would at least put this fine publication in the recycling box after they are done with it, as opposed to throwing it in the garbage.

EYE CARE

Loss of sight because no eye surgery at KGH To the editor: I read the letter to the editor by Tasha McAdams in Kelowna. [Kelowna Needs ER Eye Surgery Service, June 24, Capital News.]

I had eye problems last year, spent 3/4 of a day at KGH Emergency and after various tests was told I couldn’t be helped in Kelowna.

Doctors told me the same story, as mentioned in the letter to the editor, that I had to get to Vancouver ASAP or I would get a detached retina and lose my sight.

Long story short, I was driven to Vancouver, had my surgery and the surgeon told me I was OK to travel back over the Coquihalla.

Bad advice—high altitude caused a stroke in my eye and I lost most of my sight in the eye. Drive to and from Vancouver, motels other expenses spending a few days in the Lower Mainland waiting for examination and surgery—not great. Losing most of my vision in one eye—not acceptable.

Makes me wonder how many other

INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS

Diplomacy is essential and inevitable in Middle East To the editor: Liberal leader Justin Trudeau recently said he was in favour of exploring ways of reengaging with Iran.

It came as no surprise when Prime Minister Harper, who expelled Iranian diplomats and closed our embassy in Tehran, started to ‘spin’ the Liberal leader’s statement by inferring Trudeau wants to be “best friends” with a state sponsor of terrorism.

At least Trudeau recognizes the tragic shmozzle in the Middle East is far too complex to be solved by dropping a few smart bombs. All those despicable ISIL fanatics and their powerful financial backers will never be killed; therefore, terrorism is not

going to end anytime soon.

If some semblance of law and order is to be achieved, dialogue and negotiations among the major powers is essential and inevitable.

Once upon a time Canadian diplomats could have played a valuable role as impartial facilitators. Unfortunately Stephen Harper’s self-serving foreign policies and his sycophantic relationship with Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel’s Prime Minister, have undermined Canada’s credibility.

Apparently Prime Minister Harper suffers from a severe case of partisan political myopia which impairs his ability to see beyond the next federal election.

BLOOD TRANSFUSION

Thank you to all those who donate the Gift of Life To the editor: This is a huge thank you to all blood donors.

I recently received some blood products.

Although blood donors know they are doing a good thing, I would like to say something personal as one who has received the Gift of Life.

Because of you : • I can breathe more easily today, without effort, without gasping for air • I can relax, my heart rate is now normal and not speeding like a freight train • I can move around, no muscles twitching, all getting oxygen • I have energy to do things and enjoy each and every moment • I can think clearly, watch TV, read and do handwork which • I love • I am peaceful, positive and planning

ahead • I can joke, laugh and participate in discussions • I can enjoy • I am back.

All of this is because of your donation, your Gift of Life. In fact, I had only used part of what you generously gave. The other parts went to people who were also in need and you helped them too.

Can we ask any more of a person than giving living back to someone who is in need?

I don’t think so.

For those who aren’t able to donate, for whatever reason, you can join me in being thankful to those who can and will.

Dear donors, the bottom line is this: I have me back because of you. Thank you. You are awesome.

patients from the Interior have to go to Vancouver because KGH doesn’t provide operating rooms. It’s bad enough if they have to spend time and money in the Lower Mainland—speaking for myself I would gladly pay to get my sight back. Unfortunately it’s too late.

K. Peter Lepold, Kelowna

Eye on Shaw To the editor: After Shaw took over “The Okanagan’s Very Own” CHBC there have been many changes. First they laid off local production staff, running robot cameras from Toronto.

This has resulted in many technical glitches.

Now Shaw is exerting its editorial control over every news item. When Shaw had a massive Internet failure in the BC Interior, there was no mention at all on their TV news.

When they aired coverage of the Telus Ride for a Cure, they made no mention of rival Telus and made sure camera angles never showed the Telus logo.

Ever notice that one half the advertising on Global TV is for Shaw Internet or Global programs?

I won’t get into the rest of Shaw’s operation, where they laid off all their customer care people in Kelowna or abandoned the big office tower they started years ago.

To me this is small-minded thinking by a money losing company run by egomaniacs.

Game still fun for Walker whenderson@kelownacapnews.com

Having outgrown his competition in the B.C. Interior, teenager Patrick Walker moved with his family from Kelowna to the Lower Mainland following the 2008 tennis season.

More than six years later, at age 20, Walker is embracing the game like never before.

Currently the ninthranked male player in B.C. and 29th in Canada, Walker was back in his hometown this week competing in the Kelowna Futures Tournament.

After winning his first two qualifying matches in the intense Kelowna heat, Walker fell just one step short of reaching the main draw when he lost on Monday to fellow Canadian Kyryll Kryvchun.

Tennis aside, Walker was happy to be back in Kelowna for the first time since he was 14.

“It’s been very nostalgic, I have to say,” said Walker. “We’ve been driving around, my old school, my old neighbourhood. It’s nice to see some new courts (Parkinson) here, and I’m glad to see the indoor facility is still here.

“I’m happy…it

could be a little less hot though,” he added with a laugh.

Born and raised in Kelowna, Walker began turning heads in the local tennis community at the tender age of seven.

One of his first coaches was local pro Johnny Vesterinen who worked with the young prodigy in the early days at the Mission Tennis Club.

“When I first saw him play, I thought we have to move Patrick up with the 10 to 12 group,” said Vesterinen. “Then he was too good for those kids, so I moved him up to play in the teen group.

He loved the challenge and was a natural. It was amazing to watch.

“To see him still playing today with passion and having success, I’m so pleased about that,” he added.

With Vesterinen, Kerry Bourdon, Joachim Nierfeld and his dad, Randy Walker, among those providing guidance along the way, Walker went on to dominate youth tennis, winning hundreds of matches and dozens of events on a provincial level.

A member of Team B.C. for six years, Walker captured more than 60 tournament titles as a youth and junior player,

including provincial championships at the U16 and U18 levels.

Now, at 20, Walker is competing in the men’s open division where the depth is far greater and where virtually nothing comes easy.

Thankfully, Walker has grown considerably over the last few years and at 6-foot-3, 165 pounds is well equipped to compete in what has evolved into a big man’s sport.

Walker has, not surprisingly, also grown mentally.

“I feel like I have more self motivation now,” Walker said. “I remember when I was a kid I needed a push, I didn’t have a lot of emotional control, the losses would get to me a bit more.

“But now I enjoy the ups a lot more and the lows don’t affect me as much, so it’s just fun. That keeps me going, makes me want to play.”

The early years meant not only thousands of hours of commitment from Patrick, but from his parents, Randy Walker and Anne Veilleux.

To see their son still playing the game with both success and joy is what’s most satisfying.

“We’re delighted, we invested his childhood, a fairly substantial amount

of money and time and certainly our emotions to get to this point,” Randy Walker said. “One of the things I’m grateful for is that he’s grown, because this is a tall man’s game now.

“I’m also pleased with his desire to play and succeed, it’s greater than it ever was, he’s pushing his own car along the road and we’re happy about that.”

While tennis occupies much of Walker’s time from late spring to fall, his winters are pretty much consumed by his education. He’ll be heading into his third year at Simon Fraser University where he is majoring in bio-medical physiology.

As for tennis, just like the early days when he was winning matches in convincing style, Walker’s goal remains the same— to become a full-time professional.

But Walker doesn’t plan to put too much pressure on himself, choosing instead to simply enjoy the ride.

“I know I want to play pro but I wouldn’t say I have specific goals right now,” he said. “I try and put myself in the present.

Going to school in the winter, I have to take that into consideration as well.

“I’m really enjoying the

Senior Raiders wind down regular season The Kelowna Raiders closed out their 2015 regular season home schedule Friday night with a 15-8 victory over the Kamloops Rattlers.

Inside a blistering Memorial Arena, it was another come-frombehind victory for the Raiders who pushed their Thompson Okanagan Senior Lacrosse League record to 6-3.

The fans were entertained by the Raiders solid defensive style and skilled playmaking all evening to the final buzzer.

Scoring for Kelowna was rookie Evan Helgeson with the hat trick, with deuces from Vic Wiens, Brendan Urban, Joe Brown, Nick Evans and Jacob Illichmann. Matt Gorges and Travis Lee added singles.

The Raiders are in the midst of a two-week break, then will take on the Shamrocks in Armstrong on July 10 to close out the regular season.

The Raiders, who are 0-14-1 on the season, will miss the TOJLL playoffs for the second summer in a row.

Kelowna lost in Kamloops on Saturday night. Nick Alcorn led the Raiders with a goal and an assist.

Merkley, Stephens on the road to the NHL Over the last two WHL seasons, NHL teams have been intrigued by the potential of Kelowna Rockets’ forward Nick Merkley.

In the end, it was the Arizona Coyotes who most liked what they saw in the Calgary-born prospect.

The Coyotes selected Merkley 30th overall in the opening round of the NHL entry draft Friday in Sunrise, Fla. Merkley, who led the Rockets in scoring during the 2014-15 WHL season, said having his named called in the draft was a dream come true.

“I’m super excited,” said Merkley, 18, who had 20 goals and 90 points for the Rockets last season. “It’s a pretty surreal moment to go in the first round. You dream of it your whole life so I’m super pumped.

I want to get started with my summer. I haven’t had any time to work out or anything so I’m going to get started this week. I’m excited to get back in the gym.”

Only you can get yourself BATTLE OF HONG KONG Veterans and retired teachers through tough times appreciate effort put in by students Abraham Lincoln once said, “Most people Seniors’ are about as happy Concerns as they make up their minds to be.” The fact MARJORIE is that you can think HORNE positively or you can think negatively.

Negative thinking will trigger adrenaline and it likely will make you feel anxious and obsessive, thinking the same thoughts over and over, and doubting yourself. Developing a running commentary that serves you better, one that lifts your spirits and gives you something positive to focus on, releases endorphins and oxytocin in your body.

There is nothing like receiving a surge of your own natural energizing chemicals to give you a needed boost.

How you interpret the events in your life can determine whether you are happy or depressed, energetic or drained. In fact, whether you realize your dreams or not ultimately may be more a factor of how you explain the disappointments and losses in your life to yourself than the fact that bad things may have happened to you.

Dr. Martin Seligman, a professor of psychology at the University of Pennsylvania and long-time researcher on the psychology of motivation and success, found that the difference between pessimistic and optimistic thinking patterns is related to how people explain to themselves what has happened to them and how they think it will affect them in the future.

Confronted with a painful situation, pessimists are more likely to think the bad event is going to be permanent, and that it is personal—that it is all their fault. Optimists explain things very differently to themselves. They are more likely to understand the bad situation as temporary, limited in its effect, and unrelated to their worthiness or capacity to do well.

Even though optimists may see things through rose colored glasses or sometimes have unrealistic expectations, they still are shown to maintain their performance advantage, even though the pessimists actually may see things more accurately.

Perhaps a little dose of denial is not so bad after all. Pessimists tend to be worriers and therefore a pattern of constantly waiting for the other shoe to drop develops.

As we age, our method of behaviour has usually been well honed. Having a desire to experience greater happiness and peace as we journey through the later years of life can provide a more motivating force to change the story we have been carrying and start telling a new one. With aging, there are challenges to face and more losses

encountered than perhaps in our younger years. For the worriers, this can present a daily dose of adrenaline to deal with.

Alas, I seem to be a worrier, but overcoming old habits is a matter of practice and commitment.

The Buddhist tradition speaks of the Five Great Fears. These are fears that can cause panic within us. They trigger the autonomic nervous system and cause us to go into a process of fight or flight. These five great fears are: The fear of death; the fear of illness; the fear of losing one’s mind; the fear of loss of livelihood and the fear of public speaking.

The first four are definitely prevalent as we traverse the path of elderhood.

One method for dealing with fear is termed compartmentalization. This is the mental faculty that keeps us focused on the task at hand and allows distracting thoughts and anxieties to recede into the unconscious.

When it come to the five great fears, our ability to compartmentalize can veer out of the normal range and become either too weak or too strong. This type of worry can plague you and put your body into a state of adrenalin that is hard to stop, blocking your body from returning to a state of relaxation or nonworry.

One technique to use that is helpful is mindfulness—to stop and pay nonjudgmental close attention to what is actually happening right now. You stop and face your fear, looking it straight in the eye and acknowledging it, neither taking up the worry nor trying to push it away. Just observe it.

Fear, like physical pain, is unpleasant, but unlike physical pain, it is a mixture of many things: Bodily sensations, memories, imagined futures, visualization, and looping and repetitive inner dialogues. Part of what makes fear and pessimism difficult to manage is that it is so complex and multifaceted.

Inner dialogue, which is also sometimes referred to as ‘stream of consciousness’ is primarily verbal and is usually random, a running inner commentary on the events of the moment. The same sequence of thoughts repeats over and over.

As aging brings change and transition, learning to manage worry and uncertainty is a worthwhile practice.

The Gold Star Trophy and cheque for $1,000 was presented at a formal luncheon at the Capri Hotel in Kelowna in June.

The recipient, Graeme Stacey, a teacher at Kelowna Secondary School, was presented with the award and a cheque by Patricia Cough, first vice-president of the British Columbia Retired Teachers Association, and Sid Prat, president of the Royal Canadian Legion, Kelowna Branch of the Pacific/Yukon Division.

The presentation included a short description of the BCRTA and the Royal Canadian Legion Gold Star award

by Clough and Pratt.

The award described the heroic service of the Canadian Soldiers at the Battle of Hong Kong.

“The first Canadian troops to see battle in the Second World War, the first wounded and the first killed and taken prisoner,” according to the Winnipeg Free Press.

The veterans of the Hong Kong experience was researched and relived by the KSS Social Studies 11 students through the stories, letters and relations of the survivors and their families.

Caleigh Wong, a KSS student, recited a poem which she created and submitted to a national contest, and Abby Thompson, another KSS student, displayed and explained a large painted mural which she created for the project.

Both students, who were involved in Mr. Stacey’s class project, received

national awards and recognition for their submissions.

Lt. Lee Naylor of the Canadian Forces (retired), participated in the project, explaining the extent of the research and the interaction of the students with the Hong Kong veterans, the battle, and the lives of the veterans during and after the war.

The students related the importance of remembering and learning about and from our past.

Clough summarized the project and thanked all of the participants in the presentation and the ceremony.

It brought tears to their eyes of several members of the audience as many personal memories of friends and family were relived. I believe that this was a very satisfying experience for our members.
