Housing concepts sought

$20,000 set for conceptual design work

by John Arendt

The municipality will contribute up to $20,000 for the conceptual design of the proposed lakeshore trail.

Mayor Janice Perrino said the proposed trail is not in the plans as a munici-pal budget item, although

the study will come from municipal funds.

“If we can do the design, they can do the project,” Perrino said.

A group has been formed to create the trail. At present, it has more than a dozen members, representing the Trans Canada Trail, the Sum-merland Rotary Club, the Summerland Chamber of Commerce, the Okanagan

Similkameen Parks Soci-ety, Economic Develop-ment Penticton, Tourism Penticton and the Sum-merland Credit Union.

“If this is doable, it could be a huge economic driver,” Perrino said of the proposed trail.

While the group pro-moting the trail is looking to raise the money to put it in place, Coun. Bruce Hallquist said the ongoing

maintenance would likely become the m u n i c i p a l -ity’s respon-sibility.

“We have infrastructure and services we can’t take care of,” he said.

Coun. Peter Waterman said the trail would serve

as a good link between the Lowertown area and Trout Creek. “By doing this, we will set it up properly for the commun-ity,” he said.

Coun. Martin Van Alphen said a lakefront walking trail in Peach-land draws many visitors there. He said the Sum-merland trail could have a similar effect.

Fibre optic upgradeChris McInerney of Telus installs a fibre optic upgrade to a telephone line in Sum-merland. Telus is spending $3 million to bring fibre optic cables to the community. The upgrade is part of a provincewide three-year, $3 billion improvement.

Municipality seeks to add affordable hous-ing at former RCMP site

by John Arendt

When the municipal-ity issues its request for proposals for the former RCMP site on Jubilee Road East, the plans will involve an affordable housing component.

A memo from muni-cipal administrator Tom Day said the two object-ives for the project are to raise revenues from alternate sources and to provide addi-tional alterna-tive housing options.

The site has been vacant for around a year, since the Sum-merland RCMP detachment moved into a newer and larger Pineo Court location.

The former RCMP location is owned by the municipality.

Earlier, the municipal-ity had considered setting up its own development,

a pocket neighbourhood, on the site, but Mayor Janice Perrino said a housing initiative would be best left to developers.

“It was a good plan, but not as viable for us,” she said. “It’s much better for a developer to take it on.”

For years, munici-pal councils have been examining ways to bring affordable housing to the community.

Perrino said there are not many lower priced properties in Summer-land. This in turn affects the market prices.

“There’s not a lot of inventory in moder-ately priced homes for families,” she said. “We don’t have enough homes available in the lower, more affordable range.”

Longboarders descendGiant’s Head Mountain

For the sixth consecutive year, longboarders from around North Amer-

ica and beyond will descend on Giant’s Head Mountain for a weekend of high-

speed thrills.The Giant’s Head

Freeride will be held Aug. 3 to 5 and will

draw around 200 par-ticipants.

The specially designed skateboards will reach speeds of 30 to 40 kilometres an hour along the paved path on the moun-tain.

Event organizer Andrew Monaghan said the mountain draws participants back each year.

“It’s a unique course, unequalled in North America,” he said.

While the long-boarders will race on the Monday, the event is not set up as a competition.

“It’s based on just having fun,” Mona-ghan said.

Participants have registered from around North Amer-ica, with one long-boarder arriving from Spain for the event.

The popularity of the sport continues to grow and the skill level increases every year, Monaghan said.

The course, from the paved parking lot near the summit to a spot just inside the gates to the mountain park, is the route which has been used in previ-ous longboarding events.

Study will determine feasibility of trail projectContinued from Page 1

Coun. Lloyd Chris-topherson said it is

not accurate to com-pare the Summerland proposal with the

Peachland trail.The trail in Peach-

land is a walkway with something along every part of it.

The proposed Summerland trail would not receive the same type of use, he said.

He added that the study is needed to enable council and the trail group to better understand the costs involved in constructing the trail.

“This is only the first step and it may be the last, depending on the outcome,” he said.

Perrino said the study is needed in order to determine if the project is feas-

ible.“If we don’t do

this, the group can’t start,” she said.

She added that she would not support spending any more than $20,000 for the study.

Hallquist said the $20,000 price tag rep-resents a small por-tion of the munici-pality’s total budget, but small amounts of money can quickly add up.

He added that the trail group has not yet requested the study.

The funding was approved with Hall-quist opposed.

Legal Phrases in Pop CultureA recent article by Jeffrey Miller in the Canadian Bar Association's magazine the "National" referred to legally minded phrases that people use all the time likely without knowing their exact origins. Here are two:"Round up the usual suspects" - Movie buffs and Humphrey Bogart fans will instantly recognise that as the classic line spoken by Claude Rains as "Louis Renault" the French Vichy Prefect of Police in the movie "Casablanca". Of course, Louis knew who had committed the crime, but he was in no rush to uncover the real culprit, our hero "Rick". That line is said to have inspired the idea for a more recent movie called appropriately enough "The Usual Suspects". A very good movie known for its all-star cast and its surprising final minute reveal."Don't do the crime if you can't do the time" - Many younger people will say that they have heard Snoop Dogg or the group UB40 sing this line. Many older people will wonder who Snoop Dogg or UB40 are! The reality is that the line was first sung by Sammie Davis Jr. in the mid-1970's. It was written into a theme song for the TV Cop show "Baretta" starring Robert Blake. The rest of the story is of course that Mr. Blake went on to have quite a chekered legal history.

Date changed to coincide with birth of playwright

The week of July 21 to 27 has been proclaimed George Ryga Week in British Columbia, marking a change of emphasis in the way the Sum-merland playwright is remembered.

“In the past George Ryga Week has occurred in Novem-ber, marking the date when George passed away,” said Keith Ferlin, president of the George Ryga Cen-tre Society.

“This year we are celebrating George’s life. The week ends on Saturday, July 27, which would have been George’s 81st

b i r t h -day.”

R y g a was born in Alberta in 1932. He died in Sum-merland in 1987 at the age of 55.

The majority of his writing was done from his home on Caldwell Street in Summerland, where he lived from 1962 until his death.

He is best known for his 1967 play, The Ecstasy of Rita Joe.

Ferlin said the change of date for George Ryga Week represents a new direction in how Ryga’s legacy is celebrated.

The house, which

had been converted into a retreat for art-ists, was sold in the past year.

While the house is now privately owned, the new owner is a Ryga Soci-ety supporter, Ferlin said.

“As many people know, the Ryga house in Summerland, home of the George Ryga Centre, was sold to handle ser-ious financial issues that were facing the Society. Although the house is now private-ly owned, the new owner is a Ryga Soci-ety supporter, so we are very happy that the house is in good hands.”

Proceeds from the sale of the house have been invested and the society is in

talks with several cultural groups to endow a scholarship for emerging writ-ers.

“As a rural farm boy in northern Alberta, George was encouraged to write as a teen-ager through scholar-ships from the IODE and other groups. In that spirit, we intend to endow a lasting legacy to support other writers,” Fer-lin said.

“The society is looking forward to future involvement with the community in the spirit of George Ryga.”

On George Ryga’s birthday, July 27, the Society members and family members will gather to celebrate George’s life.

Police are continuing their investigation.

After climate scientist-turned-Green Party MLA Andrew Weaver had a taste of debate in the B.C. legislature, I asked him for his impressions on that and other issues.

Excerpts from that discus-sion:

TF:  You did a study com-paring burn-ing all the world’s coal reserves and all oil reserves, showing how big coal really is.

The federal government says that when you add up what’s actually being used in North America, carbon emissions from coal are about 30 times more than from oil.

Now we have a symbolic coal export ban in Vancouver, which doesn’t apply to Port Moody or Point Roberts or Prince Rupert. Do you think there’s any significance to this?

AW:  There is no question that the biggest issue around is coal, because coal use is on the rise world-wide.

Not in the United States, because they’re converting [power production] to natural gas.

This is why American pro-ducers are saying, let’s ship it to Asia. California says no, Ore-gon says no, Washington says no. Vancouver says no, British Columbia, not sure.

It’s pushing us to start think-ing about what I think is going

to be the greatest industrial revolution the world has ever seen, which is transformation of energy systems away from our combustion approach, which is essentially what we’ve been doing since we were in caves.

We’ve gone from burning wood to now fossil wood, and fossil plants and fossil algae, to a much more modern era of production of energy through natural means, solar, wind, geothermal etc.

TF:  Liquified natural gas. The NDP says they are abso-lutely in favour of that now.

AW:  I have questioned the economics of it from day one. There’s a market differen-tial that exists now.

There’s that small window because Japan is moving from nuclear to natural gas. But we’re way behind everyone else.

TF:  Thirty years ago, Japan played Australia and B.C. off for metallurgical coal.

Those northeast B.C. coal mines are back up and running again, but you’re seeing a simi-lar thing here?

AW:  Yes. And if we start shipping natural gas to Asia … the Asian price comes down, the North American price goes up. British Columbians haven’t been told that.

TF:  How has the legislature session been for you?

AW: I sit there and watch the two parties. Rhetorical ques-tion, condescending answer. Rhetorical question, condes-cending answer.

And I hope more British Col-umbians watch this, because this needs to change. And I think it can change.

TF:  The NDP opposition decides when you and Delta South Independent Vicki Huntington get your occa-sional moments in question period?

AW: Yes, and if I’ve asked it’s been no problem.

TF:  Grudgingly no doubt. If the NDP had their way, the closest Green Party member would be in Holland.

AW:  [Laughs] Yes. Certainly not in North America. There’s this sense of entitlement within the NDP to the ‘green’ vote. And I sense that the B.C. Liber-als very much like our exist-ence, as being not NDP.

The reality is, we take as many Liberal votes, if not more. It’s because what it means to be ‘green’ has moved out of what the NDP view as green, which is a tree hugger.

It’s kids going to school, talk-ing about conservation, and going home to talk to their par-ents. That’s where our votes are coming from.

TF:  Are you going to be found standing in front of a coal train any time soon?

AW:  No, never. They asked me to, and I said no, because I don’t believe in civil disobedi-ence.

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

The list of capital projects identified by the Works and Util-ities Department is lengthy, but the cost of doing the work identi-fied exceeds the funding avail-able.

As a result, one sidewalk project was done this year and one drain-age project will be completed, even though other projects on the list are considered urgent.

Some of the work can likely be put off for a short time, but work cannot be postponed indefinitely. Eventually, the need for main-tenance and improvements will become critical.

culls

Longboarding enthusiasts from Canada, the United States and beyond will be in Summerland on the August long weekend for the sixth annual Giant’s Head Freeride.

The week-end of high speed thrills draws around 200 partici-pants. Organizers say the paved path on the mountain is superior to any other in North America.

Having such an attraction in our community is something we do not always fully appreciate.

ourpickAffordable

housingAnyone who has bought a

home in Summerland in the last few years will know it is not cheap to live in this com-munity.

Between 10 and 15 years ago, housing prices escalated rapidly and as a result, some who could have afforded to live here in the past were priced out of the market.

The price increases affect-ed all housing in Summerland, whether homes for sale or homes for rent.

While prices are a little lower than they were at the peak of the increase, the cost of housing remains high.

According to the most recent statistics from the South Okanagan Real Estate Board, the average selling price of a single family home in Summerland from January to June of this year has been $378,188 while the average selling price of a condominium unit, whether an apartment or a townhouse, was $243,453 during the same period.

These prices are out of reach of most young families or single income families.

Furthermore, many of the condominium units are in complexes which have age restrictions, barring young families from moving in.

A plan to create an affordable housing develop-ment is a welcome con-cept, one which could help Summerland bring in and retain young families.

Without such a definition in place, it is possible the development would result in houses less expensive than the average selling prices in Summerland, yet still out of reach of those who are most in need of affordable housing.

Summerland and other South Okanagan communities have done well at attracting retirees to the community.

However, unless working people can also afford to live here, the community will have an increasingly difficult time providing the business-es and services it needs in order to maintain its quality of life.

The early years

Memory lane?In the 1920s the road from Trout Creek to the rest of Summerland wasn’t quite as busy as it is today. Summer traffic on the dirt road consisted of wagons, buggies and a few of the new-fangled horseless carriages, all equipped with natural air conditioning and not at all likely to be stopped for speeding through Trout Creek. As you travel the highways this summer, keep a light hand on the reins, tip your hat to other drivers and stay safe.

Dear Editor:An open letter to

the Prime Minister:I write about your

directing our mil-itary to revert to the use of British mil-itary rank insignias and designations after 45 years of a home-grown Can-adian system.

I also note that you previously had

directed our services to revert to “Royal” services in name, indicating service under the Queen of England.

My wife and I spent 16 years out of country and were delighted when we came back to find how Canadian iden-tity and pride had grown noticeably.

To us, this was a very good thing.

But now, we note you are dragging our country back to the colonial past that is becoming more and more irrelevant.

My understand-ing also is that a clear majority of Canadians want a Canadian citizen as our head of state and

not a British mon-arch.

Indeed a very strange choice of things to do. It just seems so out of place given our strong growth toward a singular Canadian national identity.

I am an independ-ent conservative, have contributed to your party and

have served in our military, and I am angered by what you are doing.

Here is my word to you.

Your autocratic indulgence of your royal infatuations by tampering with our country’s pre-vailing ethos is dan-gerous; just look at the example of one

of your fat crony appointees, ex-premier Gordon Campbell, who was reduced to single digit support in this province for doing exactly what you are doing — using his office for autocratic, arrogant and person-al indulgence.

But who will res-cue you?

But as with most of you people who tran-scend dissociatively further into your eso-teric bunker you will probably learn the hard way.

We will put some-one in the office that shows us, and our country, more respect.

Dear Editor:On the evening of

Tuesday, July 17, I went outside to fill the bird feeders, the hummingbird feed-ers, and the bird bath.

There to my sur-

prise, on the corner of our lawn was our “bear Frisbee,” that had been borrowed by the scruffy little Fyffe Road neigh-bourhood bear, that kept us entertained (but cautious) for the

month of May.Since the bear

doesn’t have access to the Summerland Review to learn by my previous letter to the editor that I would like the gar-bage can lid (Fris-

bee) returned, I must assume some kind neighbour/fr iend found it and returned it on behalf of the bear.

Thank you Fyffe Road neighbour/friend.

Continued from Page 1Day said afford-

able housing agree-ments are already in place in other B.C. communities includ-ing Whistler and Vic-toria.

Coun. Martin Van Alphen said meas-ures must be taken to ensure that a

development here does not later become restricted to seniors. At present, many of the townhouse and condominium developments in the community have age restrictions.

“If we’re truly going to look at affordable housing, I

don’t want to see age restrictions,” he said.

He added that he wants to see the units sold to young families and not pur-chased as investment properties.

“I don’t want to see these rented out,” he said.

Coun. Lloyd Chris-

topherson said the concept is something new for Summerland.

“I think this is an innovative and excit-ing proposal,” he said.

He added that a covenant will be needed in order to ensure the units remain affordable in the future.

Details about the development, includ-

ing the number of units and the price,

are not known at present.

Perrino said the municipality’s

growth strategy includes affordable housing, which is needed in order to bring growth to the community.

Proposals will be accepted until Aug. 30 at 2 p.m. Details are available on the municipal website at summerland.ca.

“If we’re truly going to look at affordable housing, I don’t want to see age restrictions.”

Martin Van Alphen

Drainage and sidewalk work approvedAlthough numerous capital

projects have been identified as priorities for the municipality, only two are on the schedule for this year.

A sidewalk upgrade on Henry Avenue has already been completed. The cost of this was $14,000.

This work was completed because of urgent safety con-cerns.

The second project for this year is a $45,000 drain-

age improvement on Fulton Street.

The remaining $91,000 will be carried over to 2014.

Other areas identified for improvements include Gar-nett Valley Road drainage improvements, work on Prai-rie Valley Road, a sidewalk on Jubilee Road West, work on Bathville Road and drain-age improvements on New-ton Road, Bristow Road and Jewell Place.

During the budget delib-erations for 2013, council approved $150,000 for side-walks, drainage and paving upgrades.

“Although $150,000 is a sig-nificant amount of money, it does not go very far when the money is being used for infra-structure improvements,” said Don Darling, director of works and utilities for the municipal-ity.

Several of the individ-

ual items far exceeded the total amount set aside for the upgrades.

“When it comes to infrastruc-ture, the costs are extensive,” said municipal administrator Tom Day.

He added that for next year, the municipality will have more substantial funding in place for improvements in 2014.

Gas tax revenue money may be used for these improve-ments.

While problems along Gar-nett Valley Road have been identified in the past, council chose to delay this work at present.

The proposed work had been for intermittent patch-ing, at an estimated cost of $63,606.50.

“I personally think it’s ridiculous to pour money onto the road and rip it up again,” said Coun. Martin Van Alphen.

Children and adults are getting an introduction to sail-ing as the South Oka-nagan Sailing Associ-ation offers its Learn to Sail courses this summer.

David Watts, direc-tor of the Learn to Sail program, said one-week and two-week courses are offered, with children as young as six years old participating.

The coaching staff and instructors are sailors who have gone through the program in the past.

“We’re proud of the development of local people as instructors,” he said.

Each year, around 100 people are enrolled in the Learn to Sail courses. The introductory course runs for three hours

a day over five days, while some of the more advanced courses are six hours a day for 10 days.

The programs for the younger children tend to be the most popular.

Watts said sail-ing provides a good workout for partici-pants.

“It’s healthy. It’s exercise like you wouldn’t believe,” he said. “You’re work-ing every muscle group.”

Because of the demand this year, many of the courses have already filled up, but organizers are considering an additional course for children dur-ing the first week of August, depending on the level of inter-est.

Sailing lessons offered

Fruit harvestEric Scramstad picks apricots at a home on Peach Orchard Road. The Summerland Asset Development Initiative’s Fruit Tree Project is in place again this year. Volunteers are picking for residents who wish to donate some of the fruit.

A new sergeant has been appointed to head the Summerland RCMP detachment.

Sgt. Stephane Lacroix, an officer with 29 years of poli-cing experience, has spent much of his career working in the Okanagan.

He began his work at the Summerland detachment on Mon-day.

After beginning his policing work in Ottawa and Chil-liwack, he was sta-tioned in Oliver in 1992 and served there for nine years.

He later worked in Penticton, on general duty, drug work and serious crime investi-gations.

In Kelowna, he was assigned to the major

c r i m e u n i t , i n v e s t i -g a t i n g h o m i -cides in much of s o u t h -e a s t e r n B r i t i s h C o l u m -bia.

His role in Sum-merland will be a change from the ser-ious crime and homi-cide work.

“It’s back to the grass roots of poli-cing,” he said.

He added that Summerland, with its low crime rate, is a refreshing change.

“It’s nice, after deal-ing with the worst to deal with people in a good environment,” he said.

School District No. 67 (Okanagan Skaha) Requires

HOMESTAY FAMILIES FOR THE 2013-2014 SCHOOL YEAR

School District No. 67 is looking for prospective homestay families in Penticton and Summerland to host international students for one year, one semester, three months, one month and/or on a short term (respite) basis. Placements are needed for both male and female students from Germany, Japan and Korea who will be attending one of our local secondary schools. Host families must be English-speaking and have a desire to welcome the student into their home as part of the family. Close proximity to a secondary school is an asset.

Host families are expected to provide:o a fully furnished private bedroom for each student; o a clean, safe, caring environment conducive to student studies; o meals;o the opportunity to participate in Canadian family life; and o a completed criminal record search for all adult members residing in the

home.

School District No. 67 will provide:o support and guidance by a homestay coordinator who will monitor the

student/homestay experience; o monthly compensation of $725; and o temporary placement/respite homes for host families, if required, for

holidays and emergencies.

If you are interested in this great opportunity to exchange cultural experiences with an international student, please pick up an application form at the School Board Office, 425 Jermyn Avenue in Penticton, download the form off the District website at www.sd67.bc.ca, or contact Ms. Bev Skinner, Homestay Coordinator at (250) 494-1537, or by email skinners@shaw.ca

Swim, bike, run, fun! July is a busy month for Summer-land’s TriPower Tri-athlon Club.

TriPower held an activity-packed, two-week training camp that focused on skills development and fit-ness training, hosting 54 athletes, ages six to 15 years old,  in their main camp.

A mini-camp for children ages four to seven years, aimed at introducing triath-lon was held concur-rently.

The programs lead up to the Boston Pizza Junior Triath-lon Race in Penticton on July 20, followed by the SunRype Tri-Kids event on July 21.

“The Penticton race and ORCA’s

Kids-of Steel Triath-lon (Sept. 1) are the biggest races of the season for the club,” said Mike Berresford, coach and co-founder of TriPower. “We had a record 44 athletes competing, veterans and first-timers alike,

racing their hearts out in Pentiction. All finished with a huge grin on their face, many climbing the podium for awards.”

Close to 150 ath-letes competed in the 27th annual edition of the race.

TriPower has two additional training camps planned for children in August, and a cross-country running program scheduled for Fall 2013. 

In its fifth sea-son, and focusing

on family fitness, the club has grown to include training programs for adults wishing to get fit and have fun doing so.

Scoreboard

A small competi-tive group of Pentic-ton Pikes’ swimmers headed to the Fra-ser Valley for a swim meet this past week-end, in preparation for their regional meet.

Leif Forge first 100 Breaststroke, third 50 Butterfly, third 100 Freestyle, fifth 50 freestyle.

Hayden Krause third 100 freestyle, third 50 Freestyle, third 100 IM, sixth backstroke.

Ryan McMillan sixth 50 freestyle, eighth 100 freestyle

Shannon Clarke second 100 breast-stroke, second 100 backstroke, fourth 100 butterfly, sixth 50 Freestyle.

The boys’ relay team of James Krause, Hayden Krause, Forge and McMillan placed second in both the freestyle and the medley relay.

The swimmers are now gearing up for the regional swim meet at the Penticton Aquatic Centre Aug. 3 and 4.

Perhaps you sent a lovely card,Or sat quietly with us in a chair.

Perhaps you sent lovely flowers to share,Or gifts of food to show you care.

Perhaps you spoke the kindest wordsThat any friend could say.

Perhaps you were not there at all.And just thought of us that day.

Whatever you did to console our hearts,We all thank you, so much,

for your special part.

Book clubMegan Tiessen, Kailee Mah and Isabelle Porter are busy creating their own constellations during the program, Written in the Stars.  Children were invited to enjoy one of many book choices on the theme of Greek mythology, then bring their thoughts to share at the library’s Summer Read-ing Club book club.

The Summer-land Community Arts Council invites you Art Walk 2013. Come and experience the original works of local emerging and established artists on display throughout Summerland and the surrounding area.

The work show-cased over the event will include paint-ings, photography, jewellery, pottery, tex-tiles, and sculpture.

Art Walk features 37 artists in 38 venues including restaurants, retail outlets, and wineries throughout

Summerland. You can pick up an

Art Walk brochure, which lists participat-ing artists and venues at the Art Gallery and Summerland Visitor’s Centre. You can also look for the Art Walk decal on participating businesses.

Art Walk is not just an opportunity to view many differ-ent types of art it is also an opportunity to drop into a wide range of businesses that you might not otherwise visit.

In addition to Art Walk there are a num-

ber of new shows opening in August.

Art Happening opens August 2 at the Shatford Centre.

The exhibiting art-ists are all members of the Federation of Canadian Artists and you will find a wide range of media on view: watercolours, oils, encaustics, acryl-ics and mixed media among them.

Barb Hofer will be having a solo show at Leir House begin-ning Aug. 2, featur-ing a tribute to trees. Branching Out is a mixed-media collec-tion of her paintings using watercolour, acrylic, collage, and lately, encaustic.

Memorial Park will come alive with the sounds of Shake-speare on Aug. 1 and 2 as the Pentic-ton Chamber Theatre offers a brand-new production of Much Ado About Nothing in the park beginning at 7 p.m. Tickets can

be picked up at the Sweet Tooth Cafe on Victoria Road or at the park.

The delightful Much Ado about Nothing is one of the Bard’s most cherished comedies, sparkling in every sense of the word.

Two couples head-line the play: Bene-dick/Beatrice, acci-dental tourists of love who think they are “too wise to woo peaceably” and Clau-dio/Hero, for whom “silence is the perfect herald of joy” until

they start listening to the wrong people.

Add in lumbering malaprop Dogberry and his merry band of constables, drunk-en Borachio, tuneful Balthasar, and wick-ed Don John––he of the blistered soul–– and the stage is set for one outrageous misunderstanding after another.
