Values drop throughout South Okanagan and Similkameen

by John Arendt

Property assessments in Summerland are lower

than a year ago, but the values remain higher than in other South Oka-nagan and Similkameen communities.

More than 67,000 property owners in the region have received their property assess-

ments, which are sent out annually through B.C. Assessment.

In Summerland, the average assessment was $419,000, down from $441,000 a year earlier.

Tracy Wall, deputy assessor with B.C. Assess-

ment, said property val-ues did not all change by the same amount.

“Most homes in the South Okanagan region are remaining stable in value compared to last year’s assessment roll,” she said.

She added that most home owners in the area will see changes of five per cent up or down from last year’s value.

Throughout the region, assessments dropped from the 2012 values.

Number of community awards pared from 19 to 12

by John Arendt

When the commun-ity awards are presented

next month, there will be fewer than in the past.

The awards list has been trimmed from 19 awards last year to 12 this year.

Among the cuts, the Arts Award and the Cultural Development

Award will not be pre-sented at this year’s cere-mony.

The awards ceremony has been a Summerland tradition since 1937. It is organized by the Sum-merland Chamber of Eco-nomic Development and

Tourism.Chamber president

Arlene Fenrich said several of the smaller awards were removed and rolled into the Cit-izen/Volunteer of the Year Award.

“By keeping that

award, we’re making sure people will not be left out,” she said.

In past years, the Cit-izen of the Year Award and the Volunteer of the Year Award were two separate awards.

VICTORIA – The B.C. government is rolling out its new high-tech medical services cards start-ing Feb. 15, in an effort to phase out millions of CareCards in the hands of non-residents.

The new cards will be combined with the B.C. driver's licence, with a similar "BC Services Card" avail-able to those who don't drive. Residents will be required to re-

enrol to renew the card every five years, whether they drive or not.

Qualified residents can enrol in the Med-ical Services Plan at any provincial office that issues driver's licences. There is no fee for the health servi-ces card only. The cur-rent $75 fee for a five-year driver's licence renewal will apply to the new combined cards, discounted to $17 for seniors.

There is no require-ment to get the new card until your driv-

er's licence needs to be renewed. The gov-ernment's plan is to change over all eli-gible B.C. residents between the ages of 19 and 74 to the new cards over the next five years.

To be eligible for MSP coverage, you must be a citizen or approved permanent resident of Canada, living in B.C. at least six months of the year. Dependents must also be resi-dents to be eligible for coverage.

The health min-istry announced the new card program

in May 2011, after a review showed there were up to 9.1 million B.C. CareCards in circulation. The total population of B.C. is 4.5 million.

Health Minister Margaret MacDiar-mid said the new card is designed to comply with B.C.'s informa-tion and privacy law, which restricts how personal data can be used and shared.

That means ICBC and police have no access to medical files, and hospitals and medical offices have no access to driving records.

New ID cards to prevent health fraud

by Tom FletcherBlack Press

VICTORIA – After shaking up the B.C. government’s finan-cial affairs, Auditor General John Doyle will be replaced by a new financial watch-dog when his six-year term expires at the end of May.

Rules for the five-

member MLA com-mittee that appoints auditors require them to maintain secrecy on who didn’t support Doyle’s reappoint-ment, which required unanimous support. NDP leader Adrian Dix said it’s clear it was one or more B.C. Liberal MLAs who voted against Doyle’s reappointment.

“This is clearly a bad decision, not one that the NDP sup-ports, not one that I support,” Dix said Monday.

Opposition MLAs cite Doyle’s reports criticizing the recent buildup of BC Hydro debt and the state of B.C.’s forest inven-tory in the wake of a devastating pine bee-tle epidemic as likely reasons why Doyle wasn’t reappointed.

Doyle is also lead-ing a court action seeking release of detailed defence law-yer billings for for-mer ministerial aides Dave Basi and Bobby Virk, whose $6 mil-lion in legal costs were covered by the

province after they pleaded guilty to breach of trust in the 2002 sale of BC Rail operations.

Dix called Monday for Premier Christy Clark to intervene and ask the MLA committee to recon-sider its decision to hire a new auditor. A spokesman for the premier quickly ruled that option out.

Ben Chin, Clark’s communications dir-ector, said Clark has maintained a policy of not interfering in legislative commit-tees, such as a cos-metic pesticide com-mittee that disagreed with her call for a ban.

“You can’t send the committee back

to work because you don’t like the con-clusion they reach,” Chin said.

Vernon-Monashee MLA Eric Foster, who chairs the selection committee, said there were no “marching orders” given to B.C. Liberal MLAs by the caucus or the pre-mier. Foster refused to comment further, citing strict confiden-tiality rules around personnel decisions such as the employ-ment of the auditor.

The other B.C. Lib-eral committee mem-bers are Chilliwack MLA John Les and Peace River South MLA Blair Lekstrom, both of whom are retiring in May.

This is the time of year that many people head south for a break from winter. While you are waiting in that security line think about the following:

The following excerpt is from a Transportation Security Administration Report and was reported on the Internet. It shows the number of possibly dangerous weapons confiscated at U.S. Airports since February 2022.

Total number confiscated: 15.6 million

Number of Knives: 4.7 million

Number of Guns: 2,150

Number of Box Cutters: 75,241

So while everybody remembers 9/11, some people still don't get the idea that you should not bring weapons on a plane with you!

Agricultural metering options consideredby John Arendt

When Summer-land goes to metering for water use, agri-cultural users will continue to pay con-siderably less than domestic users, but the details have yet to be determined.

At a special meet-ing of municipal council on Monday morning, council members discussed various options to determine who should qualify for the lower agricultural rate.

Properties in the Agricultural Land Reserve and with farm status will receive the lower rate.

Council is also con-sidering extending the lower rate to properties outside of the land reserve if they are being used for agricultural pur-poses.

In order for this option to work, small-er property owners would need to apply to a court of revision to show that they are

using the water for a commercial agricul-tural use.

“We’re trying to promote agriculture,” said Mayor Janice Perrino.

Council is also considering how to charge properties within the Agricul-tural Land Reserve but not used for agri-culture.

At present, there are some proper-ties within the land

reserve which are not farmed but qualify for agricultural rates and allotments.

“Just because you’re in the Agricul-tural Land Reserve does not give you the right to cheap water,” said municipal plan-ner Ian McIntosh.

Municipal admin-istrator Tom Day asked why a property

owner should be able to qualify for the agri-cultural rate in order to keep a lawn green.

Coun. Martin Van Alphen said the water rates are in place to manage the commun-ity’s water supply.

“We don’t have a water shortage,” he said. “We have a water management issue.”

The discussions about billing are part of an ongoing study about how to meter water for the muni-cipality.

In the past, Sum-merland has had a system of allotments for agricultural water

users and flat month-ly rates for residential users.

The community is in the process of moving to a metered watering system, but the rate structures have not yet been determined.

VICTORIA – The century-old plight of Canada’s aborig-inal people is back in the public eye, thanks to protests dubbed Idle No More.

As with Occupy protests last year, the demands are vague. One of the claims, repeated in media cover-age of protests, is that the fed-eral govern-ment is mov-ing to end the historic Indian Act restriction against selling reserve land.

A look at the federal legisla-tion, Bill C-45, shows this is not the case. Amendments ease restrictive provisions for leas-ing reserve land, which remains property of the Crown held in perpetuity for the aboriginal community.

This change was initiated by B.C. aboriginal leaders so they can follow the trail blazed by one of the most entrepreneurial chiefs in Canadian history.

His name is Ron Derrick-son, and he served six terms as chief of the Westbank First Nation near Kelowna. One of my first big reporting assign-ments was covering a Royal Commission into his adminis-tration’s business affairs in the mid-1980s.

There had been an aston-ishing 17 federal investigations before that, stemming from local claims that Derrickson was just too successful. He drove a big black Mercedes, wore expensive suits, and established a bunch of enter-

prises, including Canada’s first water slide.

The commission was chaired by John Hall, then known as the Crown prosecutor who put serial killer Clifford Olson away, and now an appeal court judge. 

Derrickson’s suit jacket had a conspicuous bulge as he took the stand each day. He was packing a semi-automatic pistol, having demanded and received a carry permit after a brutal attempt on his life.

The hit man, an ex-cop, was hired by people who didn’t like the bottom-line way Derrick-son ran Westbank’s lease-hold mobile home parks. He showed up at Derrickson’s home one day and tried to beat him to death with a metal bar. Badly injured, Derrickson made it to his gun cabinet and shot his assailant, who survived to go to prison.

Derrickson testified that his approach to the Indian Affairs bureaucracy was simple. He did business, and if they didn’t like it, they could tell him. Reserve land can’t be sold, so he leased it, offering people a low-cost way to enjoy the sunny Okanagan.

His business plan was also simple. Drive to California and see what they’re doing. Drive back and do it in B.C.

A 2007 profile of Derrickson by Greg Fjetland in Canadian Business magazine describes

how he came by his approach to Ottawa. He grew up “dirt poor, living in a tar paper shack.” His family name was Tousawasket, until the local Indian Agent drew an Anglo name out of a hat.

He and his brother were the first aboriginal kids to attend public school in Kelowna. Racist bullying drove his par-ents to move him to a residen-tial school in Washington State.

He dropped out in Grade 9, toiled on farms, learned to

weld, and worked his way into ranching, real estate and politics. He never gave up or backed down, ever.

The Hall commission and all previous government probes concluded that he did noth-ing wrong. Derrickson sued his local accusers and won, and Ottawa began to change its racist, paternalistic ways.

Which brings us back to today. Derrickson’s pioneering work is still changing the Indi-an Act for the better. This effort is under dishonest attack from people whose legacy is mainly incompetence and failure. Pro-testers demand more unearned public subsidy, and a petulant soup-only strike is celebrated as an act of bravery.

Choose your own hero. I’ve chosen mine.

SUMMERLAND REVIEWA PART OF THE COMMUNITY SINCE 1908 WWW.SUMMERLANDREVIEW.COM

Another group in Summerland has put out a call for volunteer help.

This time, it’s the Red Cross, asking for people willing to help staff the med-ical equip-ment depot on Wharton Street.

This is the third organization in the last few months to make a public plea for volunteer help.

We understand schedules are busy and not everyone is able to volunteer their time. Still, we are puzzled by the growing number of organizations which are in need of help if they are to continue their service to the community.

culls

Municipal crews have been busy clearing the streets and side-walks following some recent heavy snow-falls.

If you have been able to walk or drive in Summer-land this winter, it is because they have kept the roads clear and sanded and the sidewalks ploughed and walk-able.

Considering the many kilo-metres of roads in Summerland, this is no small task.

ourpickHonouring

serviceFor the past 75 years, the

community has taken time to honour Summerland’s out-standing individuals, organiza-tions and businesses.

This year, the list of awards has been pared down from 19 categories to 12. Some awards will not be presented while in other cases, categor-ies have been merged.

The Volunteer of the Year Award and the Citizen of the Year Award have been combined into one. The Arts Award and the Cultural Development Award are also included in the Citizen/Volunteer of the Year Award.

This is a change from previ-ous years, when Summerland named a Volunteer of the Year, Man of the Year, Woman of the Year and Citizen of the Year, as well as awards for achievement in sports, arts and culture.

There is a stronger busi-ness focus in this year’s awards.

Of the 12 categories, 10 are for various business-relat-ed achievements.

The Mayor’s Award of Excellence and the Citizen/Volunteer of the Year Award are the only categories not specifically business-related.

While it is important to acknowledge business excel-lence, there is much more to Summerland than this sector.

Outstanding contributions in sports, the arts and culture also deserve recognition.

That said, it makes sense that the Summerland Chamber of Economic Development and Tourism would choose to put its focus on business-related categor-ies as the chamber’s mandate is to promote and support Summerland businesses.

As the direction of the awards changes, it is import-ant for other sectors of the community to highlight the achievement of outstanding individuals and groups.

We encourage sports, arts and cultural groups to give public recognition to those who have made contributions in those areas.

WHAT IF.......?What would I do if a loved one were to pass away?

What if I were to die somewhere else?What would my family do?What if... what if... what if?

Call us to help you take care of these questions.NOW is the time to give yourself peace of mind.

Dear Editor:Our parents’

deaths are only two deaths that have been made public this past year.

There have been other deaths and many other inci-dents over the past years.

Between manage-ment and staff a lot of complaints were sim-

ply ignored. In the spring of 2012 there was a similar incident to our father’s.

You would think management would have made chan-ges to the way they report a resident’s absence, rather than sweeping it under the carpet.

It’s big of them now to say they are

making changes to procedures, policies, staff training, report-ing and supervision since Interior Health and Ministry of Health were brought in.

What happened to our father is inexcus-able.

They keep refer-ring to “human error.” You can use

whatever excuse you want. If it was one day, yes for incompe-tent staff. Two or three days, we con-sider that criminal.

We believe some staff is not trained, lack the” care” in care aid and lack common sense. They are just there for the pay-cheque.

A lot of this reflects

on management, work load, wages and bottom line private enterprise looking after their almighty dollar.

With regards to our mother falling, she had severe dementia and hadn’t walked or stood up on her own for years. Therefore she was dropped due to some incompetent

employee not prac-ticing proper safety protocol and who didn’t even record or report the accident. As a result our moth-er was not sent for an x-ray until a week later.

We understand accidents happen. Due to their failing to report the acci-dent, in paperwork

or verbal, the doctor who saw her a few days after the acci-dent didn’t know she was dropped. He probably would have made a different diagnosis, as well as the other LPNs and aids that saw her all at different times.

Interior Health and licensing are ultim-ately responsible.

Our family has paid a huge price for the lack of gov-erning (supervision). Please put yourselves in our shoes for the past four months and ask yourself how you would feel.

We’ve had issues at Seniors Village for the past six years, so it has been a long walk for us.

They now are implementing all these changes in residential care and planned changes as listed in the Dec. 19 edition of the Sum-merland Review.

It is inconceivable to us how a seniors’ facility has been able to get away operat-ing without all this in place to begin with.

What kind of supervision has Interior Health and Licensing provided to our seniors?

Taxpayers are you aware their “human errors” are being paid for by you?

Even a windshield would be niceA peaceful ride in a snow covered valley? It would be a charming novelty for most of us, but to Mr. and Mrs. Robert Monro in the early 1900s, it probably wasn’t so charming and certainly not a novelty.  As we sweep the snow off our cars, complain about having to shovel the driveway, and push each other out of snowbanks, it may help to remember that our ride to town or to work will be inside a warm vehicle with a windshield in front of us and our favourite music to sing along with. Very few of us arrive at our destinations with frost-bitten cheeks. Stay warm and enjoy our winter wonderland.

Disability advocacy initiative seeks volunteersDear Editor:What is the real-

ity of living with dis-abilities?

You gave gifts at Christmas. Will you or someone you know give three hours of your time a week to help PAWC help clients apply for disability benefits? Are these clients eli-gible? You’ll help us

find out. And if they aren’t eligible, you’ll help us get them the assistance they need.

Disability bene-fits will benefit them their entire life. It’s a life changer.

The Penticton and Area Women’s Cen-tre is gearing up in a major way to increase services to people with disabilities –

men and women. It’s a one-year project training volunteers to help people access needed resources. Funding is through the government of B.C. (Employment and Labour Market Division) and Com-munity Foundation of the South Oka-nagan.

We’re calling it the

GetReal project. You will literally be where the action is, where the impact is great.

There’s a lot of people hurting out there. We’re doing our best to meet the demand for advocacy services. PAWC has limited staff.

There’s a substan-tial wait list.

Clients often

stretch down the hall-way.

Trained volunteers will really assist. 

If you can com-mit to a minimum of three hours a week, give us a call. We’d love to hear from you.

If you’re a people person with compas-sion and respect, fan-tastic. If you prefer to help out behind

the scenes with the paperwork, that’s fantastic, too.

Training is Jan. 25 with Stephen Port-man, Legal Advo-cate with the Victoria organization Togeth-er Against Poverty Society (TAPS).

Portman oversees a successful Volunteer Disability Advocacy Project. You need to

sign up in advance.For more informa-

tion about “getting real” with PAWC, contact 1-866-493-6822, or e-mail vol-c o r p a w c 1 @ g m a i l .com. Thank you, everyone.

Continued from Page 1Fenrich added that

the focus of the even-ing is on business excellence in various categories.

Chamber manager Christine Petkau said efforts to streamline resulted in fewer awards this year.

“There is no ques-tion that volunteers play a major role in our community and that they are active in many vital areas; not only the arts, but in education, health care, etc.,” she said. “Rather than single out a particular area, the board wishes to acknowledge all areas through nomin-ations to the Citizen/Volunteer of the Year Award.”

She added that one award alone will carry more prestige than several awards

which have similar criteria.

But David Finnis, president of the Sum-merland Community Arts Council, won-ders why the two awards were cut from the evening presenta-tions.

He said the Arts Award has been organized through the arts council and presented at the awards ceremony for many years.

“We’ve been per-mitted to present the award at this event,” he said.

The arts council will still present its award, but at another time. Finnis said it will likely be pre-sented during Arts and Culture Week in spring. The events during Arts and Cul-ture Week do not draw as many people

as the community awards ceremony, he added.

The nomination and selection process has also changed this year.

Nominations can be made by busi-nesses and the public. Self-nominations can also be made.

A committee will then draw up a short list of final-ists and members of the chamber will be able to vote for the winners, with one vote per mem-ber. Voting will be done electronically and members will receive their ballot information through the chamber.

Petkau said there are more than 800 chamber members who are eligible to vote for these awards.

Awards recognize business excellence

The Red Cross depot in Summer-land has been run-ning short of volun-teers, but this week’s

heavy snow makes the situation worse.

The depot loans out medical equip-ment such as crutches, which are expected to be in

higher demand than usual because of weather-related falls.

Located at 5534 Wharton St. in the back of the Art Gal-lery building, the depot maintains a supply of medical equipment such as wheelchairs and walkers that can be borrowed for three months at a time with payment by dona-tion.

The depot is down to three volunteers in all when there should be two on duty each Monday, Wednesday and Friday shift.

The facility is oper-ated by the Canadian Red Cross and fund-ed by local dona-tions.

It provides an

alternative for people who can’t buy or rent the equipment from a commercial source.

Dale Belvedere, team leader for the Summerland Red Cross, says it has always been hard to get volunteers for the depot.

She has been involved for about five years, since she answered an appeal for someone to look after administration.

Since then, the demand for service has increased but vol-unteers are hard to find. Currently about 80 items a month go out on loan.

To volunteer, con-tact the depot at 250-494-0818.

Volunteers needed at Red Cross depot

In need of volunteersDale Belvedere, team leader for the Summerland Red Cross, says vol-unteers are needed to work at the medical equipment depot. At present there are just three volunteers for the depot.

Q My friend just got new d e n t u r e s

and I am thinking about doing the same. I still have quite a few teeth but I don’t know if they are worth keeping. What do you recommend?

Mary

AThis is a difficult question to answer Mary without seeing your teeth. However, I will

share with you what I know about dentures. Most patients tell me that if they could turn back time, they would prefer to keep their natural teeth. Think of dentures as a “replacement for no teeth,” not a replacement for teeth. Dentures, when made well, can fit your gums comfortably, look natural, and help you chew your food, but they are very different than real teeth. Denture wearers lose at least 75% of their ability to chew when wearing complete dentures. Some of my patients have been able to adapt very easily to dentures while others had a more difficult transition. I can’t tell if you would adapt easily to dentures or not, and unfortunately you can’t take them for a test drive. Sometimes dentures are the only option because the teeth are beyond repair. Implants can help the dentures fit and function better when we need to make that transition. I encourage you to think about what you want and then see your dentist or come into see me so you can better understand your options.

We’re here to help in any way we can. Feel free to call, stop by, or send us an e-mail message. We are always accepting new patients and I’d be happy to answer your question in the next article (anonymously if desired). Have a great week!

SAVE TIME. SAVE MONEY.

by John Arendt

It was a cold start to the new year for around 150 partici-pants in the 28th annual Polar Bear Dip on Jan. 1.

The event, organized by the Sum-merland Kinsmen Club, lasted just long enough for participants to get a running start into Okanagan Lake, get wet and then emerge to quickly dry off and warm up.

The temperature was -2 C and there was no wind.

Terry Michels, one of the partici-pants, has gone into the icy water for the past 20 years.

He began when he was a member of the Summerland Kinsmen and later continued the tradition.

“It’s just something to do to greet the new year,” he said.

While there was snow on the beach this year, Michels said the weather has been worse.

“We had to break the ice one year,” he recalled.

His granddaughter, Trista Algar, 12, also took part in the swim.

This was her third year participat-ing. She first took the plunge when her grandfather suggested it to her.

“I like to do things most people don’t do,” she said. “And also, we’re Canadians. We don’t mind the cold.”

Julia Mansiere, eight years old, took part for the first time because she

thought it would be fun.

After the swim Hailey Stovell, 11, said she was freezing.

She added that she was not sure if she would participate in 2014.

Kieran Messier, nine years old, also felt the cold when he got out of the water, but he was already considering whether to go in again in a year’s time.

Mandy Lister, visiting from Aus-tralia, got into the water for the first time.

“It was good,” she said. “It was not as cold as I thought.”

Michael McAuliffe said the cold water was numbing.

“I lost all feeling in my feet instant-ly,” he said.

Swimmers had a brisk and brief dip in Okanagan Lake. The temperature was -2 C and the lake was only a few degrees above freezing.

John Dorn pours a cup of hot chocolate.

Chilly participants warmed up around fires as soon as the swim was over.

Open Monday - Saturday8:30am - 4:30pm

I recently refer-enced the 2013 MSP Premiums that will increase by $2.50 a month for an indi-vidual who is not on premium assistance.  

Although most people tend to oppose paying more money to any level of government, when it comes to healthcare I believe that more and more citizens are appreciative of hav-ing important new health services such as the recently com-pleted Interior Health heart and surgical centre.  

With greater fre-quency I am hearing from patients who are truly thankful for having had a lifesav-ing procedure suc-cessfully performed that was never avail-

able in this region previously.  

Reports of excel-lent care from med-ical staff and even comments favourable of the food at Pentic-ton Regional Hospi-tal have become far more common than what I was hearing a decade ago.   

I do not pass on these comments lightly nor do I do so from a political perspective, however from my standpoint there is certainly more appreciation for our universal health care system and the immense costs that are required to pro-vide it than what existed previously.   

Thanks to increased education there is also a bet-ter understanding on

how living healthier and more active lives cannot only help to reduce the pressures on our health care system but can help to increase our own enjoyment and qual-ity of life.

One concern that does exist but is sel-dom referenced is MSP fraud.  

It has been esti-mated that British Columbia loses pot-entially in excess of $200 million annually as a result of ineli-gible people illegally accessing our health-care system with fraudulent or stolen care cards.   

This is patently unfair to everyday British Columbians who diligently pay MSP premiums each and every month.  

Last year it was determined that there are more B.C. care cards in circulation then there are citizens in British Columbia who are paying into the MSP program — clearly this is a situa-tion that requires cor-rective action.

You may start to see advertisements or may have read media reports about B.C.’s new B.C. Service Card that will begin to appear this week.  

The new B.C. Ser-vice cards will feature photo identification as well as anti-for-gery measures and an expiry date.   

These initiatives will help to reduce fraud and also to enhance patient safe-ty.  

B.C. residents will have the option of having a dedicated B.C. Service Card or you can have the MSP information includ-ed on your driver’s license instead.   

What will not be optional is the requirement for

every B.C. resident to re-enrol in the MSP program.

Starting on Feb. 15, all B.C. residents between the ages of 19 and 74 will be expected to re-enrol in the B.C. MSP pro-gram within the next five years.   

For more informa-tion please visit the www.BCServices -Card.ca website.

On a different health related note, a reminder that for those of you who smoke and  who have made a new year’s resolution to quit, the B.C. smoking cessa-tion program is still available and can be reached as simply as dialling Health link BC at  8-1-1.  

The 811 Health link service is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.   

Once per calendar year B.C. residents enrolled with MSP can receive coverage for a program last-ing up to 12 weeks, of either a prescribed smoking cessa-

tion drug through fair PharmaCare or a complimentary supply of nicotine

replacement gum or patches.  

Although B.C. now has the lowest smok-ing rates in Canada, it is estimated there are still more than half a million smokers province wide.  

Health risks of smoking can include Lung cancer, throat and oral cancer, heart disease, stroke and emphysema.   

There is no better time than today to quit smoking in 2013.

Bill Barisoff is the MLA for Penticton.

Best costumesThe Boa Constrictors, consisting of Keisha McLean, left, Allison How-ard, Derek McGregor, Cindy McLean and Drew Makepeace in front received the prize for their costume at the 28th annual Polar Bear Dip on Jan. 1.

Well I hope every-one had a great holi-day season. I was up at Apex over the holidays and it was nice to see the moun-tain have such great snow.

In addition to all the food and drink around the holiday’s lots of sports, even with the National Hockey League still out of action.

Even though Can-ada had a disappoint-

ing game against the United States, the World Juniors is an unpredictable tour-nament that is fun to watch.

As I alluded to in my last column there are still lots of hockey here in the area.

In fact this week-end we have a Pee Wee rep tournament at the Summerland arena and of course junior hockey is going full bore all over the

Okanagan. The Summerland

Steam have had an up and down sea-son but seeing local players like Steve Semenoff, Doug Chadwick, Kendell Wilson, Rylan Sider-off, Nelson Hurry and Kenton Johnson give their all is what hockey is all about.

Let’s hope Semen-off can keep putting pucks in the net and Chadwick can return from his upper body injury as the Steam gear up for playoffs.

Let’s not forget Jor-dan McCallum who is having a good year

with the Penticton Vees and let’s hope Mitch Chapman, who has been out all year with an ankle injury returns to the Kelow-na Rockets.

It is also great to see Dustin Minty climbing up the offi-ciating ladder referee-ing in the KIJHL and lining in the BCHL and Western Hockey League.

So even if the National Hockey League hasn’t started, there is still lots to see and do in the area.

For those that want something differ-ent than hockey, the Continental Cup of Curling is on at the SOEC from January 10 to 13, 2013 or for those wanting to get back into shape the Fitness room at the Summerland Aquatic Centre is back in full operation.

Dale MacDonald has been Summer-land’s Director of Parks and Recreation for the last 22 years and in his sporting past has won provin-cial championships in four different sports.

January is Alzheimer’s month and currently 3 new drugs for slowing this sad disease are undergoing clinical trials. Each of the drugs offer a novel approach compared to current medications: they each are administered by IV infusion and target a protein thought to be involved in the death of brain cells. Since our current drugs offer only temporary symptom reduction, hopes are high for these new products.

While Alzheimer’s is a specific condition, memory loss can occur as we age for a variety of reasons – including aging itself. Fortunately, there are things you can do to improve the resiliency of your memory and reduce the impact of memory issues down the road. The brain is similar to a muscle – use it to keep it strong. Both mental and physical exercise help. And, the sooner you start, the better!

The pendulum may be swinging back. In the last few years, there has been dramatic growth in the number of seniors moving in with family for their golden years compared to previously. Whether under the same roof or a separate apartment or POD, these “new” multi-generational home arrangements fill a void between complete independence and institutional living and can offer benefits to all involved.

It can be one of the hardest conversations to have, but talking to family members about your health care in the event that you are incapacitated is critical. The documents are termed “advance directives” - also called living wills or health care powers of attorney. They ensure that decisions regarding your health are made by someone who understands your values, beliefs and preferences.

Making difficult decisions is always easier when good information is available. Talk to our pharmacists about health care options for you.

After two strong exhibition games during the Christ-mas break, the Safari Water Treatment Pee Wee House Jets have resumed regular league play greatly improved from the fall.

On Jan. 6, the Jets faced a very skilled team from Penticton. The visitors were up three goals in the first

period when Liam Hrncirik, assisted by Justin Singh, scored with just one second left in the period.

Penticton went on to score another three in second per-iod. With five min-utes left, Tristan Pres-ton put one past the Penticton net minder. Penticton replied with seconds left in the period.

The Jets poured it on in third period, scoring five more goals while limiting Penticton to three.

Hrnicirik opened the third period scoring with Pres-ton picking up three more goals, one assisted by Brendan McWatters.

Declan Riddle scored the middle goal of the period, one timing it on a beautiful pass from the corner by Riley Haist.

Goaltenders Cay-lan Nault and Ben Bowyer stopped many shots from the powerful Penticton offence.

Penticton won the match 10-7.

Minardi to play for Selkirk College

by John Arendt

A Summerland hockey player will play hockey for the Selkirk College Saints for the remainder of the season.

Colin Minardi, a former player with the Summerland Steam, transferred to the college from Finlandia University in Hancock, Mich-igan, where he had spent the first half of the season playing NCAA Division III hockey for the Lions.

Jeff Dubois, head coach of the Saints, said Minardi will be a good fit for the team.

“He’s a big kid who skates well,” Dubois said. “Colin is a skilled and versa-tile forward who can play either at centre or on the wing.”

Before playing for Finlandia, Minardi spent three seasons

in the Kootenay International Junior Hockey League with

the North Okanagan Knights and the Sum-merland Steam.

He played 122 regular season games and earned 46 goals and 63 assists, includ-ing 30 points in 24 games as captain of the Steam last season.

He also played for the Victoria Cou-gars in the Vancou-ver Island Junior Hockey League. On that team, he added 17 points and helped the team to a league championship.

Dubois said Minardi’s leadership ability was one of the factors which made

him a good choice for the Saints.

Minardi is ready to

play for Selkirk Col-lege.

“I’m looking for-ward to playing for

Selkirk while fur-thering my educa-tion,” he said. “I’ve heard great things about Coach Dubois and the guys on the team. It sounds like they are all working hard and that’s big for me. I enjoy work-ing hard and being pushed by my team-mates to be better. Plus the team’s rec-ord speaks for itself.”

Steam win one, lose one at homeThe Summerland

Steam played two home games in Junior B hockey action on the weekend, finish-ing with a win and a loss.

On Jan. 4, the Steam hosted the Kamloops Storm and played to a 9-3 win.

Summerland dom-inated the first period with a power play goal at 16:02 by Josh DaCosta with assists by Steve Semenoff and Cooper Holick.

The Steam’s second goal, also a power play, was at

14:30 by Daniel Kerr with assists by Eas-ton Bodeux and Sam Barker.

In the second per-iod, DaCosta scored on a power play at 15:05 with assists from Semenoff and Barker.

At 12:01, Dylan Burton scored, assist-ed by Barker and Bodeux.

After one Kam-loops goal, Derek Grimm of the Steam scored on a power play at 0:47. Assists were by Semenoff and Burton.

Holick then scored unassisted at 0:20 to end the period.

In the third per-iod, following a power play goal by the Storm, Semenoff scored for the Steam at 13:54, assisted by Kendell Wilson and Holick.

The Storm responded with an unassisted short-handed goal.

DaCosta then scored for the Steam at 4:51, assisted by Nelson Hurry and Brock McDonald.

Hurry had the final

goal at 4:21, assisted by Brett Harris and McDonald.

The game against the Chase Heat on Saturday was closer, with Summerland losing in a 4-3 deci-sion.

After a Chase goal in the first period, Olli Dickson of the Steam scored a short-handed goal at 9:53, assisted by Harris.

In the second per-iod, Burton scored at 14:17, with assists by Barker and Dickson.

Chase responded to bring the game to

a tie.Dickson then

scored for the Steam at 7:21, assisted by Holick and Grimm.

In the third period, Chase added two goals for the win.

S u m m e r l a n d ’ s record is 17 wins, 17 losses, one tie and two overtime losses, putting the team in fourth place in the five-team Okanagan/Shuswap Confer-ence: Okanagan Div-ision of the Kootenay International Junior Hockey League.

Bantam House Jets lose to Penticton 3The Nesters Bantam House Jets

faced Penticton 3 in the first game of the year at the Summerland Arena on Saturday.

With lots of action, the Jets gallantly

fought to keep the play in the other team’s blue line.

With only two minutes left in the game, the goalie was pulled so they could tie up the score.

The fort was unsuccessful and the final score was 4-2.

Goals were by Karter Wilms and Spencer Boerboom. Coby Blystone came away with an assist.

“He’s a big kid who skates well. Colin is a skilled and versatile for-ward who can play either at cen-tre or on the wing.”

It is with great sorrow that the family of Grace Nielsen announce her peaceful passing on, Sunday, January 6, 2013 at the age of 100 at Summerland Extended Care, Dr. Andrew Pavilion. Grace Ellenor Nielsen was born on July 25, 1912, at Radisson, Saskatchewan, to John and Eliza Mitchell. She was the second child in a family of seven. After Grade 8 she

remained at home helping to cook and sew for her brothers and sisters. She married Axel Theodore Nielsen on November 27, 1933. She and Axel farmed through those tough years until 1945, when they moved to a poultry farm at Saskatoon on Preston Avenue two blocks from Eighth Street, where Grace gathered, candled and packed eggs for awhile until her parents and brother Elwood bought them out. Grace and Axel moved into southeast Nutana, and Grace substituted washboard and tub, churning butter and baking bread for a washing machine and store bought bread and butter. Axel constructed buildings. When her children were older Grace was very active at Bethel United Church where she was President of the W.A. for a number of years. In 1962 Axel and Grace moved to Esterhazy for a few months before taking ownership of the Melsask Motel from 1963 until 1972, with Grace as an enthusiastic manager, Wendy as a part-time switchboard operator, and Axel back building houses. In the spring of 1987 Grace followed Harry and Wendy to Penticton/Summerland shortly after Axel passed away. Grace enjoyed her years in a condominium in Penticton. She had spectacular success growing flowers, and rested while watching her stories on T.V. In 2000 she moved to Angus Place in Summerland where she concentrated on basic living and making lunch for the Sunday evening hymn sing. In March 2006 she went to assisted living in Summerland Seniors Village. These were all new facilities, which she was used to. She moved at least 20 times in her lifetime, many times into new houses built by Axel. In July 2007, after a three-week stay in Penticton Hospital, Grace moved to the Dr. Andrew Pavilion, an extended care unit in Summerland. Grace was predeceased by her parents, her husband of 54 years, Axel; her daughter, Ellenor; her sons, Vern and Garry; a great grandson, Dawson Sturm; and by her brothers and sisters and their spouses: Melville, James (Ruth), Lila (Jack) Baldry, Doris (Wilf) Hunt (friend, Stu Winey), and Vernon (Lee). Grace is survived by her daughters, Cicely (Vic) Althouse and Wendy (Harry) Kwok; daughters-in-law, Sonia and Bev; 10 grandchildren, Linda, Douglas, Dale, Kurt, Karen, Michael, Lindsay, Cydney, Jeremy and Chanel, and 13 great grandchildren; her brother Elwood (Jenny); numerous nieces and nephews; and dear friends Pat and Robbie Roberts. Grace’s family would like to thank all the wonderful care givers who contributed to her comfort through the years. A very special thank you to all the staff at Dr. Andew Pavilion, with whom Grace had a very unique bond! If desired, in lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Grace’s name to the Alzheimer Society of B.C. 104-35 Westminster Ave. E., Penticton, B.C. V2A 1H7 Grace’s ashes will be buried in Borden, Saskatchewan, alongside her husband and daughter; during a small ceremony this summer.

We Match Prices!*Look for the symbol in store. WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO LIMIT QUANTITIES (note that our major supermarket competitors may not). Due to the fact that product is ordered prior to the time of our Ad Match checks, quantities may be limited. We match select items in our major supermarket competitors’ fl yers throughout the week. Major supermarket competitors are determined solely by us based on a number of factors which can vary by store location. We match identical items (defi ned as same brand, size, and attributes) and for fresh produce, meat and bakery, we match a comparable item (as determined solely by us).

Guaranteed Lowest Prices*Applies only to our major supermarket competitors’ print advertisements (i.e. fl yer, newspaper). We will match the competitor’s advertised price only during the effective date of the competitor’s print advertisement. Our major supermarket competitors are determined solely by us and are based on a number of factors which can change from time to time. Identical items are defi ned as same brand, item type (in the case of produce, meat and bakery), size and attributes and carried at this store location. We will not match competitors’ “multi-buys” (eg. 2 for $4), “spend x get x”, “Free”, “clearance”, discounts obtained through loyalty programs, or offers related to our third party operations (post offi ce, gas bars, dry cleaners etc.). We reserve the right to cancel or change the terms of this promise at any time.
