SUMMERLAND REVIEWTHE VOICE OF OUR COMMUNITY SINCE 1908 WWW.SUMMERLANDREVIEW.COM

by John Arendt

A Summerland muni-cipal councillor will put his name forward in this fall’s mayoral race.

Coun. Peter Waterman, a member of the present council and also a coun-cillor from 2005 to 2008, announced his intention earlier this week.

“I will lead a new council that will listen and respectfully discuss

issues with the public,” he said.

“The public has demanded, time and again, that they want to be heard.”

During his two terms on council, he has been involved in some major projects, including the site for the new Sum-merland Library build-ing.

“We’ve been desper-

ate for a new facility for at least 15 years,” he said.

To create the new build-ing, the Summerland Community Arts Council was displaced from the building they had occu-pied for 16 years.

Waterman said it is important to find an appropriate long-term solution for the Arts Council.

He plans to focus on d o w n t o w n e c o n o m i c growth for the commun-ity, work-ing with the new library, the arts and existing busi-nesses.

“We can create a downtown that will be

very lively,” he said. “I think we can create a mixture that will be amazing.”

Over the past year, Waterman was the sole voice on council opposed to the municipality’s Urban Growth Strategy.

The strategy is now before the provincial Agricultural Land Com-mission for review.

Waterman seeks mayoral role

A skateboard park will be constructed on the northeast corner of the Summerland Second-ary School property now that the Okanagan Skaha School District has given its approval to the project.

The park is the result of a cooperative effort between the school dis-trict, the municipality and the Summerland Charity Shop Society —

Penny Lane. The park concept was

presented to the school district by the charity shop’s board of directors last month.

Linda Van Alphen, one of Summerland’s two school trustees, said the board gave unanimous approval to the site.

The portion of school property set aside for the skateboard park has not been used as a playing

field in the past, she added.The society has pledged

$275,000 for the work, but members of council hope to attract other partners to the project.

Summerland has a skateboard park in place behind the Harold Simp-son Memorial Youth Cen-tre and near the Summer-land Arena.

This park, created in the mid-1990s, is dated, has a poor location and

is dangerous, members of council say. The new loca-tion, at the corner of Jubi-lee Road East and Rose-dale Avenue, is a highly visible location.

Now that the site has been approved, the muni-cipality will put out a request for proposals to find a designer for the skateboard park.

Bruce Hallquist, a member of municipal council and a member of

the charity shop’s board of directors, expects to see the park completed within a year.

Mayor Janice Perrino said the new location will help to show Sum-merland as a community with amenities for chil-dren and youth. “This is something that will gen-erate activity,” she said.

Details of the new park, including the size and design, are not yet known.

Thank you! for giving my husband back.

For many years my husband avoided social gatherings claiming he ‘just wasn’t comfortable in crowds’. As his hearing loss became more apparent, we scheduled a free hearing test with Stephanie Sykes at NexGen Hearing. After a very comprehensive evaluation, the results revealed a high frequency loss and he was fitted with a pair of very discreet hearing aids. Thanks to the professional care my husband received, his restored hearing eliminated anxiety and gave him back his confidence! Thank you for giving my husband back! – Kate Whitney

Carla McLeod Special to the Review

After 35 years in local government work and two years as Summerland’s chief administrative officer, Tom Day will step down at the end of this year.

He said his deci-sion will allow him to enjoy life and pursue other interests.

“Tom will be sadly missed,” said Mayor Janice Perrino. “He has been an out-standing CAO and a

tremendous asset for the District of Sum-merland.”

Because Day’s retirement comes shortly after the new mayor and council-lors take office, one of the first tasks the council will face will be hiring a new administrator.

The new council will also appoint the acting administrator until a replacement is hired.

Search consultants were brought in two

years ago when Day was hired. The search for an administrator took four months.

During his time as Summerland’s administrator, he said he has improved the processes at municipal hall, increased accessibil-ity and tightened the budget.

In addition, he was involved in trimming the staff when cuts were made in Janu-ary.

The cuts came

because of the com-munity’s slow growth rate, low reserve funds and a lack of public infrastructure projects.

The reduction of six jobs was expected to save nearly $500,000.

“It’s such a diffi-cult decision affecting that many lives,” Day said.

While he said the cuts were necessary, the decisions resulted in additional work for the rest of munici-pal staff.

Single-vehicle accidentPolice, firefighters and paramedics were called to a single-vehicle acci-dent on Highway 97 near Jones Flat Road on Thursday afternoon. Police say a Summerland motorist travelling south drifted to the left, struck the centre media and then veered left where he hit a light standard. The two occupants of the vehicle sustained minor injuries but refused to go to hospital. Cpl. Bruce Haley of the Summerland RCMP detachment said the reason for the accident is not known.

Money for water upgrades tops list of local concerns at UBCM

by John Arendt

Water and wild-fire prevention will be among the topics of discussion when members of Sum-merland’s municipal council meet with provincial represent-atives at the Union of British Columbia Municipalities con-vention later this month.

The conference will be held in Whist-ler Sept. 22 to 26.

Mayor Janice Per-rino said municipal representatives will meet with provin-cial representatives to discuss the third phase of Summer-land’s water separa-tion project.

The separation is needed since the water treatment plant does not have the capacity to handle both irrigation and domestic water on the hottest days of the year.

“We need one more phase to make sure we don’t need to use filtered water for irrigation,” Perrino said.

When Summer-land needs more water than the sys-tem can process, treated water is mixed with water which has not passed through the

treatment system. Because the water has not all been treated, water advis-ories are issued.

Perrino said for the last two years, no water advisories have been issued because the treat-ment system was past capacity.

The third phase of water system sep-aration will ensure water advisories will not be needed in the future.

Also related to Summerland’s water system, council will meet with the prov-ince to discuss chan-ges to the province’s dam safety regula-tions. Because of the changes, Summer-land needs roughly $400,000 to widen the Garnett Lake dam spillway to meet the present safety requirements.

The strategic wild-fire prevention initia-tive will also be dis-cussed.

Perrino said the initiative is needed in Summerland since the community is surrounded by for-ested areas, which can present fire haz-ard risks.

A fourth item will be road surfa-cing improvements for Garnett Valley Road.

Members of the public and mem-bers of council have noticed problems with the rough con-dition of this road.

Business Methods PatentsIn the U.S., it is now possible to protect not only the products you sell by a patent but also the way you do business. The U.S. Patent Office now recognizes ABusiness Method Patents@. This patent allows a Company to protect successful methods of doing business. An example of this new patent law is found with Dell Computers. They have applied for and received a Business Methods Patent for their direct to consumer and build to order sales approach.

Most people associate Patent Law and patents with tangible goods. This new area of Patent Law goes far beyond that. Given the pace of technology and the very high stakes in business these days, it is easy to see why business people are taking all the steps they can to protect themselves.

9615 S. Victoria Road, Summerland

250-494-0398

VICTORIA – Whatever cease-fire emerges from the latest round in the war for con-trol of B.C.’s public school sys-tem, the next court battle is ready to proceed.

Lawyers for the provincial government and the B.C. Teach-ers’ Federa-tion have filed their written submissions to the B.C. Court of Appeal. At issue is whether legis-lation remov-ing union con-tract terms that dictated class size and teacher staff levels was a violation of members’ constitutional rights to freedom of association.

When B.C. Supreme Court justice Susan Griffin found that it was, the government changed legislation again. The same judge ordered that struck down and the 2002 contract lan-guage reinstated retroactively for every contract since then, imposed or negotiated. The government says that would create chaos as well as billions in expenses, pushing out full-day kindergarten and other allocations of space and money that have proceeded since union control was removed.

Griffin’s order is stayed pending this appeal. If you think the latest strike has been disruptive, you don’t want to see what this judge’s vision would look like.

Government lawyers argue that the BCTF’s constitutional right claim is “wrong in law”

and amounts to a veto that blocks the province’s abil-ity to legislate in response to changing conditions.

“According to the BCTF, legislation may improve on collective agreement entitle-ments but cannot remove them over the objections of the union without violating [the Charter of Rights and Freedoms],” the government’s submission says. “On the BCTF’s theory, col-lective agreement entitlements become constitutionally pro-tected in perpetuity.”

What that would mean to voters is when they throw out an NDP government that hand-ed the keys to the treasury to public sector unions, the unions can veto that too. And when mandated minimum teach-er-librarians sitting in rooms full of paper books become the equivalent of buggy whip weavers, they must remain as long as the union wants.

BCTF’s lawyers submit that the government is wrong in fact as well as law. Its argu-ments are technical, dwelling particularly on the fact that the government didn’t appeal Grif-fin’s first ruling.

For instance, there have actually been two negotiated deals since 2002. The one in 2006 provided five years of raises and a bonus to get the government past the 2010 Olympics, and in 2012 there was a pre-election truce negoti-ated with the help of mediator Charles Jago.

The government argues that re-imposing 2002 conditions would overturn other contracts

that were agreed to by the BCTF. BCTF’s lawyers say, in effect, the deleted terms cover-ing working conditions weren’t there to negotiate.

The Coalition of B.C. Business-es has entered the case as an inter-vener, arguing for the supremacy of elected governments when providing public services.

Its submission notes that unlike private disputes, the right to strike is often curtailed in the public sector, and some-times eliminated as in the case of police and health care.

“When critical aspects of public policy are jeopardized by employee demands, those aspects could be legislated; where a fiscal downturn or inflationary pressures required austerity measures, they could be implemented through legis-lation; where strikes jeopardize important public services, the legislature could pass back-to-work legislation, and so on.”

It’s been obvious for many years that the BCTF doesn’t function like a normal union, and isn’t much interested in starting to do so.

Its leadership sees itself as an agent of “social justice,” a belief demonstrated by its promotion of flawed poverty statistics and pronouncements on everything from U.S. labour law to conflict in the Middle East.

Its decades-old instruction to government is blunt: raise taxes and give us the money.

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

Each fall, there are encounters with bears in the community. Too often, these incidents do not end well for the bears.

While the bears are drawn to the c o m m u n i t y by the rip-ening fruit and grapes, gar-bage is also an attractant.

When residents set out their garbage the night before collec-tion, bears see it as an easy food source.

Unless human behaviour chan-ges and garbage is set out on the morning of the collection day, bears will continue to be a prob-lem.

Summerland is in the works because of the combined efforts of a charity society, the municipality and the school board.

The land for the park is on a portion of the Summerland Secondary School property, while $275,000 of the fund-ing has been pledged by the Summerland Charity Shop Society — Penny Lane. The municipality will put out the request for proposals.

While Summerland has had a skateboard park in place since the late 1990s, that facility is dated and it is considered unsafe by today’s standards.

The new location will also have much better visibility than the existing skateboard park.

While the new park will be important as a facility for Summerland’s youth, it is also important as a community-driven initiative.

This project is happening because several organizations have been working in har-mony.

Without the cooperation of the charity society, the municipality and the school board, this project could not happen.

The collaborative effort shown so far should serve as an example for future com-munity projects.

Other efforts have worked for Summerland’s benefit in past years, and there are examples of collaborations, community fundraising initia-tives and projects which came together as a result of team-work.

There will be opportun-ities for other united efforts in the years to come.

Some of Summerland’s existing facilities will soon need to undergo upgrades or expansion work. Others are nearing the end of their lifespans.

If cooperative efforts can be put in place, the upkeep and improvement of the com-munity will be a smooth, com-fortable process.

Off to school, and to court

Looking for excitementBatman took a break from fighting crime in Gotham City to participate in the Summerland Fall Fair Parade. The pace may have been a bit slower than he was used to and it’s probably safe to say he would have welcomed a little more excitement, maybe something like the Test of Humanity mountain bike race, but unfortunately it hadn’t been established in 1968. It’s here now! The exciting event takes place on Sept. 21 and who knows, though we aren’t sure of his secret identity, maybe one of Batman’s grandchildren will be riding in the race.

The early years

Dear Editor:I strongly object to

ICBC’s planned five per cent rate increase to cover the rising costs of claims due to irresponsible dis-tracted drivers.

These drivers should be treated as impaired drivers, bearing the brunt of punitive legislation and rate increas-es. When will we responsible drivers get an equivalent rate decrease?

I have had the same good driver discount as long as I have been eligible and yet, I have to pay the same rate increase every time the rates go up to cover the rising costs of claims of irresponsible driv-ers. Further, I drive no more than 12,000 kilometres per year,so I pay more per km for my insurance than the average driver that drives 25,000 km per year. Being on a

fixed income, and I mean fixed, I literal-ly cannot afford to pay for irresponsible drivers.

Let’s get serious with drivers who make a conscious choice to endanger the lives of other drivers, cyclists and pedestrians. In the case of consciously driving distracted the first offence should cost $500, three points and double for the next offense, plus five points and loss of license for three months for any offence after that.

In the case of the conscious choice to drive distracted that results in death, a lifetime ban on driv-ing. Forget the argu-ment that the licence is need for work; driving is a matter of life and death and responsibility has a price.

ICBC’s rate hike is unfair

Dear Editor:Today I opened our

monthly water/elec-tric bill to find a legal-sized page enclosure listing what our key accomplishments are for 2013 to 2014.

The printing ad

distributing for this advertisement is a blatant misuse of public funds for the mayor and council’s campaign advertis-ing for the upcoming election.

The mayor and

council should be required by the taxpaying citizens of Summerland to reimburse the muni-cipality for the cost of printing and dis-tributing this snap-shot mailed out with

the water/electric bill.

The misuse of pub-lic funds is outra-geous.

Will the District of Summerland fund a similar snapshot of all the current mayor

and council have failed to do and the blatantly self-serving and short-sighted decisions they have undertaken on our behalf?

Parliament resumes for fall sitting

Next week the House of Commons will again be in ses-sion as the fall sitting gets underway with a heavy schedule from now until late December.

While there will be many bills com-ing before the House, one of the more anticipated debates will on be the Reform Act of 2014, a Private Member’s Bill from my Conservative col-league MP Michael Chong.

This bill has a number of democrat-ic reform proposals in it that continues to generate a strong amount of feedback from citizens and is a debate that promises to be very engaging.

From a local per-spective I have had a number of responses on this Bill and will continue to provide updates on the prog-ress of it in the House of Commons.

Another import-ant topic that may be the subject of debate is the deployment of a limited number of Canadian armed forces personnel to Iraq to work in a non combat capacity with American forces per-sonnel advising Iraqi military forces.

The purpose of this joint effort is to provide expertise on how Iraqi security forces can better pro-tect innocent citizens against the threat of ISIL.

The initial Can-adian deployment is for 30 days and includes providing strategic and tactical advice to Iraqi forces but does not include a combat role.

In response to the announcement the NDP raised concerns around mission creep while the Liberals

offered their support for the deployment.

From my own perspective there is no question that the deplorable tactics and actions of ter-rorist groups against innocent civilians are serious and represent very real concerns to all Canadians.

Canada has a long history of opposing tyranny and pro-tecting innocent civil-ians from brutality and acts of terrorism.

I also recognize that serious conflict is a subject that Can-adians have diverse views on and should never be taken light-ly. I will continue to provide updates on this subject and wel-come comments and questions in this or any subject coming before the House of Commons.

As I am soon off to Ottawa I would like to thank the many citizens, groups, organization and businesses that took the time to share con-cerns with me over my summer listening tour.

This input was helpful for me and there are a number of items that I will be taking forward to Ottawa for follow up on as the fall session gets underway.

vote of 40,000 union members expected to be held Thursday, the province’s 60 school districts are attempt-ing to return to regu-lar classes next week after five weeks of full-scale strike action that began last June.

Education Minister Peter Fassbender has said a plan will be developed to make up missed instructional days, which could involve rescheduling Christmas and spring break.

“This is won-derful news for the students, teachers, administrators, sup-port staff, trustees

and parents in B.C.,” said B.C. School Trustees’ Associa-tion president Ter-esa Rezansoff. “The immediate goal is to get students back in classes as quickly as possible.”

The B.C. Pub-lic School Employ-ers’ Association was seeking a six-year agreement with wage increases of just over one per cent per year, in line with other settlements in the provincial pub-lic service. A fund to address class size and composition has been a key issue in the dis-pute.

This is Water-man’s second mayor-al bid. In 2008, he ran unsuccessfully against Perrino,

Summerland Review Thursday, September 18, 2014 L i f e s t y L e www.summerlandreview.com 7

by Carla McLeodSpecial to the

Review

The Summerland Recope program is gently being floated into the 21st century.

With a new pro-gram manager and a dynamic new board, together they are working towards developing computer data bases and having a website. This will help them to com-municate more easily with the doctors and get more information out to the public.

“Recope has done wonderful things and has a great repu-tation. We just want to make it bigger and better and have it more accessible to more people in the community,” said Jean Munro.

Although Munro is new to the program management pos-ition, she has been working with Recope for five years as the occupational ther-apist. Previously she only worked one day a week, but now will be at all of the Recope sessions, working three days per week.

“Now I have the opportunity to do more with more therapy hours and to make sure people get the care and rec-ommendations they need,” said Munro.

She also has plans to offer staff and vol-unteers more educa-tion.

The program has two fitness instruct-ors that lead the class-es, a change room assistant and six to

eight volunteers for each day.

“It’s nice to pro-vide a bit more education for these people so they can be my extra arms and have the skills to be able to help.”

Recope has 115 members, but not everyone attends every session. On any given day there are an average of 50 people, with 35 being in the pool and the rest in the dry land class. This class is pri-marily a fall preven-tion class, offering a full body workout. Much of it is done in a chair, so the frail and elderly can man-age it.

“We’ve got people in this class who have been coming for years and honestly believe they would not still be walking if it wasn’t for com-ing and working out regularly,” Munro said.

“There’s a real social dynamic as well. It’s the encour-agement they give each other too.”

Recope has a repu-tation as being some-thing only for the older folks. Not so explained Munro.

“We can provide a really great service for anyone who’s not feeling comfortable exercising because of some kind of medical condition.”

This includes young people who may have had injur-ies or people who may be living with chronic pain. The pro-gram helps them to get moving again, to

stay active and to take charge of their health.

Another aspect that the board of dir-ectors are looking at is how to increase their fundraising abilities.

“We get partial funding from Inter-ior Health, partial funding from client fees, but we also depend on the com-munity for both cor-porate and personal

donations to keep us afloat,” explained Munro.

Together the Recope teams aim is to increase partici-pation numbers and charitable donations

so they can serve the community even more effectively than they have in the past. They hope to have the website up and running early in the new year.

How to keep your medications working

for you…Many Canadians live with multiple chronic illnesses and their med-icine cabinets may be filling up as a result. In fact, almost two thirds of those aged 65 and over take five or more prescription drugs from different drug classes. It can be a real challenge, and pharmacists can be an important resource to help keep Canadians on track. Phar-macist Austin Ojala answers common questions about medication reviews, a vital service made available in Summerland.Q: What is a medication review?A: It is a personalized one-on-one meeting with a pharmacist to help you understand how to safely and effectively use your med-ications. During the discussion, you will have the opportunity to ask questions about your medications; gain peace-of-mind that you are taking your medications in the best way possible and better understand how each medication and how you take it contributes to your overall health. Q: When should I consider getting a medication review?A: Depending on the number of medications you take, it is gener-ally recommended to have a medication review on an annual basis and more frequently if your medications change – similar to your annual physical with your doctor. This review can be done at any time during the year, but is especially recommended if you will be going to the hospital for a test or procedure, have recently been discharged from the hospital, have started taking a new medication or have any questions or concerns about how to take your med-ications. Q: How do I get a medication review?A: Getting a medication review is as easy as visiting your local pharmacist. Pharmacies have flexible hours - Shoppers Drug Mart in Summerland is open 8:30am-9pm Monday to Friday, 9am-6pm Saturday and 10am-6pm on Sunday- so you can find a suitable time for both you and the pharmacist. For more information, drop by your Shoppers Drug Mart in Summerland and speak with a pharmacist.

Development site could accommodate 30 to 50 lots

by John Arendt

A resolution to amend Summer-land’s Official Com-munity Plan to add the Hunters Hill Neighbourhood Plan will go to a public hearing in October.

The amendment adds the neighbour-hood plan as a sec-ondary document and designates the lands as rural resi-dential.

The proposed development is between Garnett Val-ley and Highway 97 and involves three separate land titles.

The three proper-ties are a total of 69 hectares and could accommodate 30 to 50 one-hectare lots.

Two wetland areas have been identified in the area.

The development of the plan began in August, 2013 and a formal application was made to the municipality in early July.

At present, the land is zoned CR1-Country Residential and A1-Agriculture Small Acreage. The Official Community Plan designation is Open Land.

Because a portion of the land is within the Agricultural Land Reserve, the develop-ment will have to be referred to the prov-incial Agricultural Land Commission.

Municipal adminis-trator Tom Day said the development must include a statutory right of way for emer-gency vehicle access.

Members of council had mixed thoughts

about the proposed development.

Coun. Martin Van Alphen put forward a motion to defer the item, requesting more information from municipal staff.

He said issues including the effects of irrigation water on the land must be con-sidered.

Mayor Janice Per-rino said she would like a geotechnical report before the development pro-ceeds.

“This is a huge par-cel of land,” she said.

Coun. Bruce Hall-quist added that the financial implications of the development must also be exam-ined.

Coun. Orv Robson said the area would be ideal for rural resi-dential development.

“I see it as being a benefit to our com-munity,” he said. “I think it’s going to be ideal.”

A motion to approve the first three readings of the amendment and to take it to a pub-lic hearing was sup-ported, with Perrino opposed.

At a special coun-cil meeting on Mon-day morning, council passed a resolution to add a technical review section to the neighbourhood plan.

The technical review includes the need to realign and upgrade Sanborn Road from Bentley Road to the entrance of the proposed development site, water modelling for the plan and a geo-technical and drain-age analysis.

The public hear-ing will be held at the Oct. 14 council meet-ing.

Hunters Hill plan goes to hearing

Hungry bears returning to low lands in search of food for winter

It is the time of year for bears to return to the low lands and residential interface areas looking for fast ways to fatten up for their long winter’s nap.

Bears enter a hyperphasia stage at this time which means they are ‘extra’ driven to search out high caloric and fatty meals – up to 24,000 calories a day.

People accident-ally provide a feast for bears at this time of year.

If bears have access to fast food refuse packets, they are likely to return again and be less motivated to harvest their own natural food in the wilderness.

Some residents place garbage out to the curb the evening prior or a day before pick-up and many garbage cans and bags are filled with a bounty of pungent summertime left-overs.

Residential fruit trees are weighed down with overripe fruit.

Walnuts and hazel-nuts are ripening, composters are brim-ming with vegetable trimmings and home canning flotsam and jetsam.

No habituated bear would pass up this densely packed smor-gasbord.

Habituated bears are desensitized to the sights and sounds of humans, urban noises and are com-fortable foraging in our backyards and neighbourhoods.

WildSafeBC urges residents to re-evalu-ate and modify their habits.

o Keep garbage

secure and sealed tightly. Place garbage and recycling to the curb on the morning of pick up. (You can freeze smelly food-stuffs and place in garbage on garbage day). See http://w w w. rd o s . b c . c a /departments/public-works/wildsafe-bc-bear-aware/

o Make sure your compost is working – digesting the plant material and consists of the correct ratio of

browns and greens. See http://www.r d o s m a p s . b c . c a /m i n _ b y l a w s / E S /solid_waste/News-letters/Easy_Com-post_Front.pdf

o Pick all urban fruit and nut trees as soon as possible. Keep the area clear of fallen and rotting fruits.

o Keep birdfeed-ers and suet cages in storage until Decem-ber.

Give bears, other

large wildlife or pred-ators no reason to loiter in your neigh-bourhood.

Purposely feeding wildlife is an offence.

Allowing wildlife access to unnatural food sources and to hang around your property may bring harm to you and your neighbours.

Problem wildlife should be reported to the Conservation Officer Reporting Line: 1-877-952-7277

This fall, Wild-SafeBC volunteers will be conducting garbage audits

These audits will be conducted the evening before gar-bage day.

Garbage cans placed out early will be tagged with bright yellow sticker tags, photos and address-es will be noted for educational follow up.

S u m m e r l a n d Municipal Hall will carry informa-tion materials on all types of Wildlife, and provide timely reminders in utility mailers.


Support the food bank.

Bear awareness urged in fall season

Bear awareHow many bears do you count? Sum-merland Ornament-al Gardens pro-gram director, Eva Antonijevic, took this photo of a sow and three cubs up a tree on the grounds of the gardens. This inci-dent highlights the need for residents in and around Sum-merland to be vigi-lant about managing garbage and attract-ants in and round the home.

Local governments in the Okanagan Val-ley are urged to begin regional water man-agement planning now and avoid acri-mony in the future, when drought con-ditions threaten sup-plies.

The warning came from environmental law professor Deb-orah Curran from the University of Victoria, one of the advisors involved in creation of the province’s new Water Sustain-ability Act, legislation passed earlier this year. She was speak-ing at the annual meeting of the Oka-nagan Basin Water Board in Kelowna.

Water sustainabil-ity planning provides a home-grown solu-tion to satisfying dif-ferent water needs within a region, and she recommended that local commun-ities begin discus-sions now toward a plan that will evolve over time, but which would be in place “before the ditches run dry.”

Such plans would take the place of fall-ing back on trad-itional water rights, with groups and indi-viduals agreeing on what would happen to water resources under different scen-arios, such as drought, she explained. These plans would be based on ensuring that the region’s economy doesn’t suffer under different water-relat-ed stressors.

Curran warned civic politicians and staff that changes are coming as regu-lations for the new act are implemented, and it will mean local governments must now consider water in making land use decisions.

She recommended local governments consult hydrologists to ensure water is used as one of the filters on decision-making.

She said there will be provision for the province to restrict the number of dwell-ings on a parcel of land in an area where there is limited water available, for example. As well, she said that under the act, the environment’s needs for water must be considered, par-ticularly where fish are concerned.

She noted that since the Okanagan is the driest part of the province, water issues here are the most acute in the province.

Either local gov-ernments can work together to come to agreements about sustainable water use, or the province can impose them, she added. “The process is up to you.”

Agriculture water reserves could be part of such water management plans, she said.

New groundwater regulations will be the first to come into force as part of the new act, and they’re slated to be intro-duced April 1, 2015. Large users will be the focus at first. Up to now, groundwater use in B.C. has been unregulated.

All licences, groundwater and new and exist-ing surface water licences will be sub-ject to review after 30 years, instead of being permanent, she warned.

Curran said urban water use, such as on lawns and outdoor landscapes, has to be reduced.

Colourful carsMore than 250 cars were registered in the Endless Summer Show and Shine car show on Saturday in Memorial Park. The car show was hosted by the Apple Valley Cruisers Car Club. The show draws people from up and down the valley and beyond, creating an economic impact for our community. Pictured here is a custom 1964 Riviera belonging to Osoyoos hot rod builder J.F. Launier. The car recently won the Ridler Award at the Detroit Autorama.

Q: I have dentures and really don’t like them. Is there any way I can just get teeth that I don’t have to take out at night? Anonymous

A: Yes. Dental implants are titanium anchors that are placed in your bone. Once healed, they can anchor whatever type of teeth you choose. There are three basic ways to anchor your teeth: 1. Teeth cemented on implants; 2. Teeth screwed into the implants; 3. Dentures (without a cover on the roof of your mouth) supported by an implant bar that is fixed in place but can be removed by you to clean.

Your dentist can help you with deciding which option is best for you. It is important for it to look good and that often depends on how much bone you have (usually the longer you have been without your teeth, the less bone you have). If your bone has receded, a denture will help provide support for your lips which can make you look younger. If you like the look of the denture but don’t want it to come out at all, it can be fixed right onto the implants. If you have lots of bone, porcelain teeth cemented on implants can look very natural.

With anything fixed in place, hygiene (or keeping it clean) can present a real challenge. Water piks, rinses, and a good visit with your hygienist are very helpful in maintaining healthy gums.

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!

Food bank donationMembers of the Summerland Golf and Country Ladies Club collected food bank items at a tournament last week. In addition to the food donations, tournament organizers presented a $400 cheque from the raffle to the Summerland Food Bank. From left are raffle organizer Gwen Redfern, Tara Hollas of the Summerland Food Bank and Resource Centre and Ev Crane, chair of the tournament. Organizers said 136 people participated in the tournament.

One potential candidate in the November municipal election is asking the public to help him decide whether to run for the mayor’s role or a councillor pos-ition.

Christopher Boisvert-Gilman said he plans to run in the munici-pal election on Nov. 15, but he has not decided whether to run as a councillor candidate or a mayoral candidate.

To help him decide, he has set

up a penny poll, using two coin banks. His poll asks people if they would like to retire the mayor or the councillors.

“I felt there was a need to hear from the people directly,” he said. When his poll reaches 500 votes, he will decide whether to file papers to run as a mayoral or councillor candidate.

He estimates more than 250 people have participated in his poll.

Council hopeful holds penny poll

Coming through one of the most expensive forest fire seasons in the prov-ince’s history, the B.C. government is being asked to renew its fund for local gov-ernments to create safe zones around their communities.

A resolution to extend wildfire pre-vention funding tops the list for the Union of B.C. Municipalities

convention, set for Sept. 22-26 in Whist-ler. It was sponsored by the Okanagan-Similkameen Region-al District, where fire crews are battling the latest major forest fire near Princeton.

The province’s wildfire prevention fund was established 10 years ago in the wake of the damag-ing 2003 fire season, with $37 million for a cost-sharing pro-gram. Another $25 million was provid-

ed in 2011 and that money has all been committed for local forest fuel manage-ment projects.

The B.C. govern-ment estimates it will spend $350 million on wildfire control by the end of this season. That was exceeded in 2003 and in 2009, the most costly season for the province with $382 million spent.

Other resolutions given priority by the UBCM executive:

o Langley City is calling on the prov-ince to provide a cost recovery model for medical assistance calls to its fire res-cue service. Nearly four out of five calls

received are for med-ical assistance. In response to a previous request, the province told UBCM its local firefighters are not required to respond to medical calls.

o The City of Vic-toria wants to discuss the province’s chan-ges to the Agricultur-al Land Commission. Nelson, Coldstream and the Central Koo-tenay Regional Dis-trict have presented similar resolutions, calling for more con-sultation before chan-ges are implemented.

o Northern and central B.C. munici-palities object to the province’s proposal to cap industrial tax

rates for properties used in liquefied natural gas develop-ments. The B.C. gov-ernment has com-plained previously about high industrial taxes imposed on the forest products industry.

o The province’s new recycling regula-tions have prompted a resolution on behalf of small communities without recycling programs. The Fraser-Fort George Regional District is calling for recycling collection services to be offered wherever fees are being collected from retailers for pack-aging and printed paper products.

Sunny skies, warm weather, and a great cause brought almost 200 Summerland resi-dents out on Sunday to run, walk, wheel and ride in the 34th Annual Terry Fox Run.

It was one of the strongest showings of community support for the event, with 194 participants and 40 volunteers.

Photos can be found on the event’s Facebook page, Terry Fox Run 2014 – Sum-merland.

The event raised just over $7,000, bringing the cumula-

tive total that Sum-merland has raised for the Terry Fox Foundation to over $55,000.

The atmosphere was both upbeat and reflective as partici-pants spoke of family members and friends for whom they were running or walking.

Participants also had the opportun-ity to write words of encouragement and remembrance on the large ‘I’m Running For…’ poster.

Several Terry’s Team volunteers, identified by their red shirts, were on hand

to greet participants throughout the event. These individuals, all of whom are cancer survivors, offered hope and inspiration, much like Terry Fox himself.

The Summerland Fire Department, along with Sparky the Fire Dog, were on hand to start the event. The ORCA Swim Club hosted the one-kilometre walk around the downtown core.

In addition to busi-nesses and organ-izations which spon-sored the event, vol-unteers helped to set

up, register partici-pants, serve refresh-ments and mark the one-kilometre, three-kilometre and five-kilometre routes.

Nine Summerland Secondary School students were on hand to help with route marshalling and traffic control.

This is the last year Keith Johnson served as the coordinator of the Summerland Terry Fox Run. He has coordinated the run for the past five years.

Next year’s run will be held Sunday, Sept. 20.

Charity run raises more than $7,000

Run organizerAfter five years as the coordinator of Summerland’s Terry Fox Run, Keith Johnson is stepping down from the role. Heather and Mike Cook will organize next year’s event.

Summerland cadet earns Duke of Edinburgh’s Award

A Summerland youth was one of 22 from British Colum-bia and Alberta to receive the Duke of Edinburgh’s Gold Award this year.

Dana McLellan, a member of the 902 Summerland Air Cadets, received the award at a ceremony in West Kelowna on Tuesday.

The award was presented by Her Royal Highness The Princess Edward Countess of Wessex.

These certificates are awarded in rec-ognition of the youth completing the requirements for the

Gold Award Level. To earn this award,

the achievers must complete five sec-tions of the award program: volun-teer service, a skill, physical recreation, an adventurous jour-ney, and a residential project working con-sistently over a min-imum of 18 months.

The award is pre-sented to the achiever in the form of a lapel pin and a certificate.

The Duke of Edin-burgh’s Award is an international youth award for partici-pants between the ages of 14 and 24.

It is a fully inclusive

program, without aca-demic requirements for participation.

At present there are eight million participants in more than 140 countries around the world, with approximately 8,000 participants in the British Columbia and Yukon Division.

More than 44,000 Canadian youth are participating in the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award program, either as independ-ents or members of organized groups.

In the first period, Mills scored at 14:41, with the assist by Lautard.

Egilson then scored for the Steam at 12:46, assisted by Eliuk.

In the second per-iod, Rylan Sideroff scored at 12:49, with assists from Kendell Wilson and Riley Pet-titt.

Lautard then scored at 12:18, with the assist by Wood-liffe.

The final Summer-land goal came at 0:22, with a goal by Lautard, assisted by Woodliffe and Mills.

The third period was scoreless.

The next hockey action for the Steam is on Sept. 19 when the team travels to 100 Mile House to face the Wranglers. Game time is 7 p.m.

The next home game is on Sept. 21 at 2 p.m. when the Steam will host the Fernie Ghostriders.

Steam win twice as season begins

A mountain bike event later this month will provide money for humanitarian work in Ethiopia.

The fourth annual Test of Humanity mountain bike event will be held Sept. 21, beginning at 9 a.m.

The course can be accessed from Mor-row Avenue.

Riders will range from beginning cyc-lists to members of the Canadian national team. Up to 200 cyc-lists will participate.

Sheilagh Seaton, who is organizing the event with her hus-band Nic, said last year’s event raised almost $50,000 for Canadian Humani-tarian.

The money will help to build a school with a residence in Ethiopia. “It’s a good way for people to have fun and at the same time to help people overseas,” she said.

In addition, the event will collect con-tributions for the Sum-merland Food Bank.

Seaton, who teach-es at Okanagan Col-lege, said the idea for the ride began when she took students from an economic development course to Ethiopia in 2009. After that trip, the Seatons looked for a way to help people in Ethiopia.

The day will begin with events for young-er cyclists in the mor-ning. Those from three to six years of age will ride half an hour of a half-kilometre loop. Cyclists from seven to 10 will ride one hour on a one-kilometre loop. Those from 11 to 15 will spend two-hours on a five-kilo-metre loop.

The main event, at 11:30 a.m., will have adult cyclists on a 10-kilometre loop for four hours.

Ride raises money for African aid

Looking for some great fall entertain-ment? Quartet, the fourth show in Many Hats Theatre Com-pany’s seventh sea-son, is currently on stage at the Cannery Stage in Penticton and is guaranteed to make you laugh.

Perhaps you’ve heard or watched the movie of the same name directed by Dustin Hoffman. Here’s your oppor-tunity to see the play the movie was based upon.

Written by British Playwright Sir Ron-ald Harwood, Quar-tet takes place in a retirement home for musicians in Kent, England.

Harwood was curi-ous about what opera singers and other musicians did when they retired.

According to Har-wood, “Every year on Verdi’s birthday they gave a gala, and these old people would sing, some-times appallingly, sometimes touching-ly. It was a wonderful documentary, and it haunted me.”

The concept for Quartet was born.

Told with great humour and warmth, this is a story not to be missed about aging, and triumph over it.

As one of the char-acters in the play says, “We’re artists,

aren’t we? We’re sup-posed to celebrate life. And that’s really what it’s about.”

Quartet is directed by Eric Hanston and produced by Shan-non French. Jamie Eberle and Eleanor Walker star along with Many Hats new-

comers Jean Padwick and Gordon Dawson.

Quartet runs on the Cannery Stage in the Cannery Trade Centre, 1475 Fairview Road, Penticton until Oct. 4 with perform-ances Thursday, Fri-day, and Saturday at 8 p.m. and a Sunday matinee at 2 p.m.

You can purchase tickets at the Wine Country Visitor ’s Centre at Railway and Eckhardt or by phone 250-276-2170.

Closer to home, the Summerland Singers and Players are host-ing an evening of the-atre history including play readings pre-sented by Singers and Players president Bob

Read on Tuesday, Oct. 21 at 7 p.m. at the Arts Centre, 9908 Main St.

I know it is difficult to focus on Christmas activities in Septem-ber, but you will want to mark Wednesday, Dec. 5 on your cal-endar as Singers and Players will be pre-senting the Charles Dickens classic, A Christmas Carol, at Summerland United Church.

The Arts Palette is written by David Finnis, publicity chair and president of the Summerland Community Arts Council, P.O. Box 1217, 9908 Main St., Summerland, B.C. V0H 1Z0.

Voluminous steam, song and Santa bring the festive season alive as you glide through the hills overlooking Summerland’s twinkling lights. The locomotive and coaches are decked out with lights and inside the holiday mood continues as you enjoy a cup of hot cocoa and sing along to your favourite Christmas carols. Each child receives a goody bag presented by jolly old Santa and Mrs. Claus. Reservations are required.December 14 & 15 (Saturday & Sunday) at 4:00 & 6:00 pm December 20 (Friday) at 5:00 & 7:00 pm December 21 & December 22 (Saturday & Sunday) at 4:00 & 6:00 pm
