are trying to achieve several goals at once—raise enough money for a new bus, increase ridership while maintaining low costs for riders and create strong ties to the Lake Country community. Some of those goals can be tricky. Margaret Fyfe, president of the Seniors’ Bus Society, says right now the society is balancing those needs as best it can in the face of rising maintenance and operating costs for their 10year-old bus. “We had the air conditioning fixed last year and that was very expensive, about $3,500,� says Fyfe. In pursuing a grant from the District of Lake Country at its most recent council meeting, it was noted that the bus society has about $60,000 in the bank. Fyfe says every penny is needed, and then

JERRY DEMONTIGNY has been a volunteer bus driver for seniors in Lake country for two years. some, for an anticipated replacement bus. The plan is to hopefully buy a reasonable second hand model with fewer costs. The district awarded the Seniors’ Bus Society a $1,500 grant-in-aid to help offset its bills. To help keep the organization viable, Fyfe is looking at different options. Advertising on the bus is a real possibility. “I would welcome any business looking to place advertising on the bus to call me,� says Fyfe.
“We are out and about in Lake Country constantly and support numerous local businesses.� The Seniors’ Bus Society picks up seniors at their home and takes them to a different event each day. A return trip costs the senior $3. The schedule includes Thursday shopping day, where the bus stops at grocery stores, the pharmacy and other services in Lake Country. On every trip day, the bus stops at a different
restaurant to help spread seniors’ shopping needs to different businesses. The effect on the lives of seniors who would otherwise be shut in is astounding. One senior calls it The Social Bus, as it literally provides much of her social life. Many studies show that keeping seniors supported in their homes enhances their quality of life and cuts down on health care costs in the long term.
“I feel we have a good service for people,� says Fyfe. The Seniors’ Bus Society operates with all volunteers, including the drivers. Fyfe says the drivers are invaluable and the society would be lost without them. Unlike handiDART in Kelowna, the Seniors’ Bus Society drivers help seniors to their doors and are willing to carry packages. Fyfe says the society

As well, fertilizers are made from fossil fuels, which are finite and cannot be replaced at the rate they are being consumed, Nichol explained, so using nitrogen-based fertilizers sparingly is extremely important and has been the focus of significant research already. The $1.2-million grant will be used to look at minimizing the im- y pact watering and fertilizing have on the environment.

EARTH MOVERS…Heather Taylor, a loader student at Interior Heavy Equipment Operator School, commands a mighty bucket while Dave Taylor (no relation) instructs her in the how-to’s of using the big digger. Interior Heavy Equipment Operator School held an open house in Lake Country last week so the public could give the digger a go or watch one of many machines root about in a field. In just three to 10 weeks, IHE trains workers to get high paying jobs as equipment operators. The school says over the next 10 years, thousands of heavy equipment operators will be needed to meet forecasted labour shortages in the oil and gas, mining, construction and forestry sectors. Students come for the training from Canada, the United States and around the world. A new group of students starts every Monday. DOUG FARROW/CONTRIBUTOR

Lake Country Building Centre has new look to serve customers BOBBI-SUE MENARD For more than 20 years the Lake Country Building Centre has been the place to go for building and renovation supplies in Lake Country. Now the store is nearing the end of its own renovation and owner Keith Williams and his staff are looking forward to helping customers explore their new look and layout. The finishing touches have just been completed on the retail floor and while there are a few details to take care of in the administration department, Lake Country Building Centre is ready to welcome everyone. “There is a bit of a change in layout for us and our customers,” said Williams. “This is the best way to utilize our 6,000 square feet.” Williams expects people will quickly adapt to the new functionality of the space. Over 100 linear feet
of shelving was added, so many familiar product lines have expanded. Many of the departments are larger. The store has doubled the size of its paint department which sees the only product change—Lake Country Building Centre is now a Benjamin Moore retailer. All of the familiar necessities can be found on new racks and shelves— plumbing, electrical, doors, windows, lumber and even cleaning supplies are stocked. There is almost everything available at a big box store on a slightly smaller scale. Contractors will be pleased to know Lake Country Building Centre has kept its same early opening hours, 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. weekdays; Saturdays, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.; and Sundays, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. There is a grand opening bash tentatively planned for June to celebrate the complete project.

BOBBI-SUE MENARD In the constantly realigning world of government supply, two familiar Okanagan names are involved in a share transaction that will create a new entity. In a share exchange, Armorworks Canada will take over Pacific Safety Products. At completion the deal will see Armorworks with 80 per cent of the shares in the new entity. “This is good news,” said Martin Cronin, director of government and corporate relations with Armorworks. “This makes us probably the largest survivability products manufacturer in Canada.” The transaction will not have a noticeable im-
pact on the labour force in Lake Country, as the high level of skills and expertise working at the local facility is, “not going anywhere,” says Cronin. The new entity will have access to the current customer base of Pacific Safety Products and Cronin is expecting the newly created firm to build on those inherent opportunities. “The net result is good news for Armorworks Canada, we are gaining new customers and market share.” Pacific Safety Products is a publicly traded company.

Options for seniors care in B.C. abound
B
oth as an MLA and as chairman of the Select Standing Committee on Health, one of my foremost concerns is seniors care. With limited dollars and an ageing population, there will always be areas for improvement. But British Columbia has made huge strides. Since 2001, the province has significantly improved and expanded the options of care for seniors. More than 6,000 new residential care beds have been added and over 13,000 have been upgraded. Here are some of the available options in B.C. Home support allows seniors to live independently in their own homes for as long as possible. Qualified home support workers can help with daily activities such as getting dressed, bathing, preparing meals and taking medication. Seniors who require more care might consider assisted living.

Imagining an NDP government for B.C.
N
DP victories in two byelections bring the standings in the legislature to 46 B.C. Liberals, 36 NDP and three independents, one of whom has pledged allegiance to the B.C. Conservatives. B.C. Conservative leader John Cummins put a brave face on his third-place finish in Port Moody-Coquitlam and Chilliwack-Hope. Even in bedrock conservative Fraser Valley farm country, in a protest byelection with a high-profile candidate, the B.C. Conservatives managed to attract just enough to deliver a landmark NDP seat. The NDP was helped by the absence of the B.C. Green Party on the byelection ballots, with most of its five-per-cent support from 2009 presumably going to the winners. Cummins said his party’s goal going into the Port Moody-Coquitlam vote, with an unknown candidate and a handful of volunteers,
BC Views
Tom Fletcher was to break 10 per cent. They got 15 per cent and he declared a moral victory. Cummins rejected a possible merger with the “discredited” B.C. Liberals. Premier Christy Clark was equally emphatic that she will be the leader of the “free enterprise coalition” in the 2013 election. So the stage is set for an NDP majority government. What will that look like? Well, Port Moody mayor-turned-MLA Joe Trasolini has a wealth of local government experience, so pencil him in as municipal affairs minister. A long-time sup-
porter of the B.C. Liberals, Trasolini should clarify if he endorses the NDP constitution, which still opposes all profit-making activity. He’s not the only high-profile newcomer likely to be included in an Adrian Dix cabinet. New NDP candidates from union executive ranks will likely include long-time Hospital Employees’ Union president Judy Darcy. She no longer talks about bringing a “Marxist analysis” to economic matters. Darcy is now best known for leading the long court battle against the B.C. Liberal government’s contract-breaking legislation of 2002. The eventual decision of the Supreme Court of Canada basically invented a constitutional right to collective bargaining. (The high court could also ponder if there might be a right not to belong to a union, but that’s another story.) Then there’s George Heyman, the long-time B.C. Government Em-
ployees’ Union president. After leaving the BCGEU, Heyman has taken a turn as executive director of Sierra Club B.C., a branch plant of the U.S. enviro-machine that works against B.C. forest, mining, power and petroleum development. These folks would be working with Stephen Howard, who went from senior positions at the BCGEU and CUPE to his current role as Dix’s chief of staff. Dix, of course, benefited from the sudden ouster of Carole James, who made the mistake of trying to loosen big labour’s grip on the NDP and modernize some of its quaint 1930s notions. Then we have B.C.’s third-largest political party, the B.C. Teachers’ Federation, which has already confirmed it will continue its long campaign to replace the B.C. Liberals with the NDP next year. Such a team brings impressive experience, but unfortunately for
taxpayers, much of that experience has been in extracting money from the public treasury. And if recent B.C. history is any guide, this fundamental conflict of interest will receive little or no media attention in the months to come. Instead, the conventional wisdom will be that voters want “change.” • Correction: Last week’s column referred to the 1971 Greenpeace campaign against atmospheric nuclear testing. That protest boat was directed at a U.S. nuclear test off Alaska, not a Soviet test as stated. Subsequent Greenpeace protests targeted the Soviet slaughter of grey whales, and the last atmospheric nuclear tests, conducted by France in the South Pacific.

Lake Country How do children process their losses? teens taste hunger C To the editor: Students across Winfield will save lives (and have fun) doing the World Vision 30 Hour Famine this month. An estimated 60,000 Canadian teens will do the World Vision 30 Hour Famine between now and April 27. They will consume only water and juice as they go without food for 30 hours to get a taste of what real hunger feels like, and raise money to fight issues that children face in poverty. Each 30 Hour Famine event is unique— groups of teens do exciting activities such as sleepovers, movie screenings, games, concerts and community service projects. There are groups registered in Winfield. Each group will choose one of four global causes to support: Food, safety,
education or water. Money raised will go towards World Vision’s long-term development work, helping children and communities around the world. Last year teens in Winfield raised $10,377 and this year they are hoping to raise even more. Last year’s 30 Hour Famine raised more than $3 million to fight hunger. This year’s goal is $3.6 million. The World Vision 30 Hour Famine is the world’s largest youth anti-poverty fundraising event with about half-a-million students participating each year.

hildren don’t know how to grieve. And so we adults don’t know how to help them. This understanding came through to me when an old friend—actually, I’ve never met her in person, but that’s how friendships happen on the Internet—sent me her newsletter. Deirdre Strachan and I attended the same school in India, but about 20 years apart. One day recently, Deirdre found herself reading a column by Roger Ebert, in which he mourned the loss of old friends and the memories they held. “We exist in the minds of other people,� Roger wrote, “in thousands of memory clusters, and one by one those clusters fade and disappear.� Roger’s musings on losses prompted Deirdre to recall a variety of losses in her own life. Among them was a choice she didn’t make,

â–ź HEALTH CARE
Choose appropriate level of care for seniors LETNICK FROM A4 brief summaries and deciding what level of care you or a loved one requires can be difficult. It’s always best to start the decision process by talking with your doctor and then contact Interior Health Community Care Nursing at 250 980-1400. Veterans can inquire about funding options by calling Veterans Affairs at 866 5222122. Besides housing, the province has also implemented programs to help seniors save money. For seniors who still live in their own homes, the Home Adaptations for Independence program provides up to $20,000 per home to help eligible low-income seniors pay for home modifications that allow safe and independent living. This program is available to those who own or rent their home. Seniors who rent Know your Lake Country Calendar, know your community!
might also consider the Shelter Aid for Elderly Renters (SAFER), which provides subsidies to help low-income seniors with rent. More than 15,800 senior households in B.C. currently receive SAFER benefits. Call 800-2577756 for more information. The home owners grant for seniors, which reduces property taxes, is an option if you own your home. For more information, call 888-3552700. Not all programs that
help seniors have to do with housing or home care. For example, BC Transit offers B.C.’s senior citizens a discounted rate on regular transit and the taxi saver program offers a 50 per cent subsidy toward taxi rides. Passengers use coupons for taxi travel by booking directly with a participating taxi company, without having to pre-plan the trip. Contact B.C. Transit for more information at 250 860-8121. ICBC also has a program to help. The ICBC
Seniors Automobile Insurance Discount allows seniors a potential discount of 25 per cent off a basic Autoplan insurance premium. For more information, call ICBC at 800-950-1498. That’s by no means the extent of the options, programs and benefits available to seniors, but it’s a good start.

then it’s time to leave again.� Until I read her reflections, it had never occurred to me that I too must have mourned— or failed to mourn—my own uprooting from India, at the time the only culture I knew. But when my wife and I travelled to India 12 years ago, I discovered memories that I didn’t know I had. I walked into a classroom and knew instantly where I once sat. I walked along a road, and realized that I knew exactly where a footpath led up the hillside behind a particular house. I stood under a pine tree, and knew where to scuff away the needles to uncover an old grave marker. Those memories had not surfaced in 54 years. But they were so fresh, so sharp, it was as if I had vacuum-sealed them and put them into storage. And perhaps I did just that. I deep-froze them, buried them, because as a
child I didn’t know what else to do with them. Were they painful? I suppose they must have been. But I don’t know, any more. Could my parents have helped me wipe the blackboard clear? I don’t know that either. Typically, adults need friends willing to let us exhume painful memories until they subside into memories of memories. We need ways to re-define our self-worth that don’t depend on what we used to be. We need to accept, even welcome, the changes that come faster and faster. But children don’t talk or think that way. We tell them, “You’ll get over it.� And they will. But I wonder what kinds of scars are left behind, and how they might shape the ways that children like Deirdre and me grow up.

Senior soccer players get their kicks in the sun during second week of league action
U7 Glitter Girls Riley passes the ball to her teammate who turns the ball around Ava before Haley shoots it in Haley. Goal! Sports teaches so many great lessons for kids—determination, respect, self esteem, a positive attitude, integrity, and most of all fun. And our girls are having loads of fun. They are learning all about how to be on a team, and all about the joys of the sport. Practices have been going well. The girls are learning all about the rules of soccer and going through the motions of the game. Coaches Jeremy, Jenni and Tara have been teaching the kids through games and positive reinforcement so the girls are learning through play and laughter what soccer is really about. The Glitter Girls have played two games and even though scores have
not been kept, the girls are doing great and we are sure they will continue to dominate in the girls under seven group so next year, when they continue in the Lake Country Youth Soccer Association, they will all be superstars. We would love to see everyone come on down and cheer on Lake Country’s very own U7 superstars—the Glitter Girls. U14 Lemon Limers The Lake Country GU14 Lemon Limers played their first league game against OKM Energy at a sunny Mission #68 on Saturday. Joslynn Jackson opened the scoring with a neat header just below the crossbar on a nice Ellie McCarthy corner, lifting the Limers to 1-0 at the half. Kaitlin Chimney slammed home a well deserved marker on a cross from Jessi Bacon midway through the second to make it 2-0.
The girls worked hard to keep a clean sheet for keeper Mackenzie Wallace and earn their first win of the 2012 season. Lake Country Cheetahs against Rutland Hawks There was a great effort from both clubs in this game. It was very close and evenly matched. Mallory Poloik, Amy Heggs and Peyton DeGelder scored a goal each for the Cheetahs. The girls had great passing and a couple of break aways. Honourable mention to the goalkeepers Jordan Lepine and CarmenSchaeffer who had some outstanding saves. Players who showed the most improvement in this game were Ellie Lever, Shannon Rowe and Simone Buchholz. Both teams tied their games the GU9s 1-1 and GU11 0-0. They worked hard as a team to force a turn over by the other team and worked well
as a cohesive group to carry the ball back into the other end and threaten the goal. All around it was a good weekend of fine soccer.
BOYS SOCCER U7 Soccer Ninjas So far, so good for the U7 Soccer Ninjas. The boys are learning to dribble, pass and shoot. They are a fun group and have lots of energy. U-8 Strikers The boys U-8 Strikers have gotten off to a great start. They have had two games so far, and are having lots of fun. The team is improving every week and has learned from both its victories and defeats. The boys are working hard on their soccer skills during the Wednesday practices, and already some big improvements can be seen. This is going to be an exciting season.

STEVEN HEISS As the adult soccer leagues moved into their second week of the season, the Lake Country Soccer Club enjoyed great success. The Woody’s Pub team maintained its undefeated run in the Kelowna Mens’ Soccer League First Division with a 2-2 draw with Ecora FC as Jeff Horricks scored the tying goal with a header. In the Second Division, the LCSC Athletics played its first game of the season and dropped a close 2-0 decision to Euro FC. The Old Milwaukees in Division 3A followed up its draw in the first game with a 3-0 victory over Baxters as Jim Kruiper scored two goals to lead the way. And in Division 3B, LCSC United picked up its first win of the season with a 5-2 trouncing of the Brewhahas.
The Kelowna Mens’ Soccer League hosted the first round of the Royal Cup competition, one of the oldest sports trophies in B.C., Sunday morning in the Mission. The Old Milwaukees advanced to the second round with a 1-0 win over Brewsers when Steven Heiss scored the only goal of the game at the 70 minute mark. An impressive effort by LCSC United came up just short, losing 4-3 on penalty kicks to Warthogs despite United only having 10 players available for the match. In Okanagan Mens’ Oldtimers action, the Over 35 LCSC Variform squad played its first game and picked up a late 1-0 victory over Salmon Arm as Kelly Sherman scored in the final minute. The LCSC Over4 5 team’s first game of year ended in a 1-0 loss. Despite having seven new players it was a great ef-

When Paterson was asked by Canadian Team Coach Dean Howie to steer the Western Canadian team, she somehow was able to fit it into her schedule between the Okanagan FC PCSL squad, summer camps at UBC’s Okanagan campus, NOYSA programming and Whitecaps Summer Soccer Camps, as well as preparations for the upcoming season of the Heat. In spite of Paterson’s busy schedule she accepted the position and looks forward to building a team to battle the world with. “I’m really honoured that Dean asked me to be involved in this very special opportunity for young athletes. It is a great program and I am excited to be involved in it,� says Paterson. “It will be a busy summer with a couple of extra trips away from home, but the experience of coaching young players and preparing them for the international stage will more than make up for my time.� Paterson’s record made her a worthy choice to lead the Western squad.

UBC Okanagan women’s soccer head coach Claire Paterson will serve as the head coach of the Western Canadian squad for the Danone Nations Cup this summer. The Danone Nations Cup is an international football (soccer) tournament for kids created after the 1998 FIFA World Cup in France, and is the biggest youth soccer tournament in the world. It is also the most accessible soccer event in the world as it is completely free. From humble beginnings in 2000 with eight teams from two continents participating, and now boasting more than 2.5 million children from around the world, the Danone Nations Cup will culminate with an international final that is held each year in a different country. Last year in Madrid, the Canadian squad finished with its highest ranking in its 12 years at the event as the young soccer players aged 1012 finished sixth among 39 of the world’s greatest soccer nations.

The Lake Country Art Gallery presents a Mystery Art Exchange On Saturday, April 29, the Lake Country Art Gallery will present a Mystery Art Exchange and Steak Dinner at the Aspen Grove Golf course in Lake Country. The Mystery Art Exchange fundraiser for the Lake Country Art Gallery builds upon the success of the gallery’s Deck
the Walls Art Auction held last November, but with a twist. Rather than bidding on whichever piece of art catches your eye, all the works brought to the exchange will be wrapped up, only to be revealed when the art exchange begins. Much like the gift ex-
changes that you may have encountered at a staff party or family gathering, each guest brings one piece of original art to be added to the “art exchange pile.” Ticket numbers are drawn to see who’s turn it is to unwrap an original piece of art or ’steal’ a piece that has already
been revealed! This will make for an exciting art filled evening, full of surprises, skullduggery, mischief and most of all, a ‘new to you’ piece of original art to take home with you. Tickets for the Lake Country Art Gallery Mystery Art Exchange and Steak Dinner fund-
raiser are available for $35 per person from the Lake Country Art Gallery. The Mystery Art Exchange will be held on Saturday April 29 at the Aspen Grove Golf Course, 10303 Bottom Wood Lake Rd, in Lake Country. The evening begins with cock-
tails at 5:30 p.m., followed by dinner at 6:15, with the Mystery Art Exchange set to begin at 7 p.m. Each ticket includes entry for one person, a full steak dinner, plus the opportunity to exchange one piece of original art for a mysterious new one. Don’t miss this fun
event that supports your local public art gallery. For more information contact Petrina McNeill or Katie Brennan at the Lake Country Art Gallery, 10356A Bottom Wood Lake Rd. Visit lakecountryartgallery.ca email lakecountryartgallery@telus.net or call 250-766-1299.

With all those ferry delays to cope with no one in their right mind would launch a music career from Victoria. And yet, as places to write and seek inspiration go, Vancouver Island’s wet, wildly beguiling charm can outshine even a lurid lover affair as muse even from under its perpetual rain clouds. “There’s this bay down by the Chinese cemetery and the walls of the rock cliff form an echo chamber like an outdoor amphitheatre,” says Steph Macpherson, a Vancouverite who has just released her first fulllength CD, no doubt with plenty of accolades to follow. Macpherson is really from Victoria, though she made the move to the big smoke three years ago in order to build her name and is nearly universally tabbed as hailing from the big smoke. To
the city’s credit, one must admit the move worked. She’s already played Lilith Fair, the Rifflandia Festival, BreakOut West and been to Ottawa for JUNOfest. And living first in Vancouver’s Kitsilano neighbourhood, then just off Commercial Drive, she got a taste of the high-brow, earthy culture that’s branded B.C. musicians. Yet, even before one flips over her album cover to see Cordova Bay Records listed as her label (Cordova Bay is in Victoria), one might suspect this girl isn’t really from the neighbourhood. There’s a connectedness to Macpherson’s sound, something like Sarah Harmer achieves with songs for the Niagara Escarpment, though without the activist element, that really leans toward the Island life. And where Vancouver might not scream alt/country, the genre Macpherson claims, her

admittedly she’s still hoping a banjitar might somehow miraculously find its way into her living room so she can get all that down-home appeal without actually having to learn to strum the banjo. Her parents originally put her in piano and voice lessons to stop the never-ending flow of Disney songs—particularly from the Little Mermaid—and while she’s managed to add guitar to the list, she’s fully ready to admit it could take a little time to add the full range of sounds she would like to see in her music. Humorous, fun and interesting to chat with nonetheless, Macpherson’s impending show at Fernando’s Pub should be a charmer.

It is an area yet small enough to get to know that customers can have a hard people. It was a distinct shift from their urban backgrounds. The first two years in time seeing in the dental profession says Jung.
“General healthcare is always in the news so patients have an idea of the latest advancements. In dentistry it is a little harder to know what is happening, but is it something I like to see ourselves is always up to date.” Jung has been on staff with the BC Cancer Agency since 1997, when she lived in Vancouver. When Jung made the move to Lake Country in 1999, it was an easy transition to take a part time position with the Agency in Kelowna. She is part of the team that sees all head and neck tumor group patients, as well as high risk chemotherapy patients. “I am part of the oral oncology team, we see patients with mouth cancer too.” While problems with the mouth and teeth are never pleasant, Jung does wish more people realized that cancer in the mouth is the sixth most common cancer and three times
more common than cervical cancer. “Everyone should have mouth cancer screening,” says Jung. The visual exam is standard training for all dentists. In a moment where price meets morality, Jung and Kosar keep the out of pocket costs arbitrarily low for velscope exams at their own office. Jung was a part of the team that helped develop the special light tool, akin to night vision goggles, to help identify abnormalities in the mouth. “The key is catching it early, the early success rate in mouth cancer is 85 per cent,” comments Jung. Despite the busyness of balancing the demands of a practice, a commitment to the Cancer Agency and her children, Jung says it possible with determination, “I find I want to do what is in front of me well.”

I have been teaching yoga at the Okanagan Centre Hall for nearly 4 years. I took my 200 and 500 hour teacher training from Trinity Yoga Centre in Kelowna, who I also teach for at their Vernon studio. There are many reasons to incorporate yoga into your routine, perhaps for relaxation, rehabilitation or a desire for greater strength and exibility. With the aches and pains of life, yoga became a necessity for me, which then became a passion that I wanted to share. I enjoy helping people learn to become more aware of their bodies and minds, how to achieve proper alignment and how to deeply relax. My yoga studies continue with training from a variety of world renowned instructors, bringing diversity and knowledge into each class. Yoga is a wonderful practice which can be beneďŹ cial for anyone from all walks of life and ages. The classes are informal, informative and fun. Okanagan Centre Hall is a great place to come for yoga with its heritage charm and beautiful setting by Okanagan Lake.

For 20 years Robyn Bohn has taught children the intricacies and wonder of music through the Music for Young Children program. The group classes Bohn has offered for children and their parents have earned her a ‘500 Students Taught’ pin from her national association and her efforts have helped Lake Country children graduate to some of the top university music programs in the country. Bohn came later in childhood to the piano. Her parents scraped together the funds for her to take lessons around age 11. It proved to be an invaluable investment. When Bohn and her husband moved to Lake Country her parent gifted her, the childhood piano she had learned on. “The piano was a huge blessing,â€? says Bohn. Bohn chose the Music for Young Children program because of its dynamic curriculum that teaches children so many elements of music that are ignored until much later in the learning process in other programs. In Bohn’s program children are taught chording, the basics of music composition, music theory, ensemble music and more. “It is a whole course with age speciďŹ c curriculum,â€? explains Bohn. “It is an exciting, colourful program.â€? The unique product has allowed Bohn to create an entirely different style of music lesson. The group lessons include parent participation so children have support when they take their lessons home. There are tremendous beneďŹ ts to watching the program work in the lives of children says
Bohn, “Music will always develop the brain like nothing else will. I’ve had such a wonderful time watching children and their developing brain.â€? Bohn ďŹ rst started teaching in conjunction with her daughter’s interest in piano. Her ďŹ rst clients came from her daughter’s peer group and for many years those parent were her core group of customers. Eventually Bohn had to begin advertising and seeking out a new base of clients as those ďŹ rst children aged out of the group. Scheduling has become slightly trickier with the advent of all day kindergarten. Many of the younger age groups still come during the day, but there had to be some shifting for now busy ďŹ ve year olds. Depending on what age a child starts the music program, it will take up to ďŹ ve years to complete the curriculum. At the end of the process all children have the same musical tools in their repertoire. She is able to operate the business out of the studio in her home where there is the upright piano and six keyboards. There is plenty of space for movement to be a part of the lesson. Bohn has had students go on to successful pursuits in music, including invitations to the Vancouver UBC campus music composition classes and working on jazz majors at Capilano University. It is the love of music that keeps Bohn’s home based business and music program going strong, “At the end children have the tools for stringed instruments, choir, and guitar. It really is a fantastic program and the rewards are incredible.â€?

I started in reception, moved into inventory control and job scheduling, even delved into sales, and now I am the General Manager at the Sundeck Centre. In my business I have the pleasure of meeting people on a daily basis who share their stories and their exciting plans about building new homes or renovating their existing ones. I’m also privileged to meet contractors who are building homes for others and at the same time building their own companies, and the Sundeck Centre gets to be a part of it.

Community ďŹ tness BY BOBBI-SUE MENARD
Living in Lake Country inspires trainer Sarah Fraser to get moving. The owner of Crave Fitness studio located in the Sitara building in The Lakes loves not only her work, but her ability to do it in a community she enjoys living in. Fraser runs ďŹ tness classes out of her shared studio space. Clients can go to yoga, kickboxing, and boot camp style group classes. Fraser also offers one on one personal training, mostly in people’s homes. The Crave Fitness studio is fully outďŹ tted with kettle bells, bosu, weights, sand bag training equipment and more. No matter the type of training a person prefers, Crave can help a person reach their goals. “Our classes are multi-level with lots of variation,â€? explains Fraser. “Depending on how much practice you have had you can do a variation and the support of the people who have been there longer is great.â€? Fraser’s personal favourite class to teach is the kickboxing class. It is a fast paced class that delivers real cardio beneďŹ ts. Fraser has worked hard to build Crave Fitness around meeting the needs and lifestyle of her clients. She designs classes around the realities of every day life. In yoga that means working with people who spend their time at an ofďŹ ce sitting in a chair with short bursts of activity. “I look at the average body and start going through what it needs and stretch people out in a way that is right for them,â€? explains Fraser. It is an approach that has helped build the
business. Fraser shares her space with yoga and health practitioner, Lynn Bowsher. The two women sometimes host events together and occasionally classes. The positive relationship has given Fraser the exibility to grow Crave Fitness at her own pace. “It has always been my goal to expand and offer more classes. More classes during the day has been on my wish list for a while,â€? says Fraser. It can be challenging in a small community like Lake Country to grow quickly admits Fraser and when she looks at fast growing ďŹ tness businesses in Kelowna there is a deďŹ nite difference in the customer base to grow a business quickly. She stays local for a simple reason, “I’ve built a family with my students in Lake Country. I never quite get the same feeling in Kelowna.â€? That close connection with customers has enabled Fraser to have parts of her business operate in a very comfortable way. Crave Fitness has an honour system with clients for their punch cards, Fraser says no one has ever taken advantage of it. “I ďŹ nd my students building friendships with each other inside and out of class. I am proud to create this community in Lake Country,â€? comments Fraser. Fraser keeps up to date on various disciplines and certiďŹ cations for all of the classes she offers at Crave in an ever growing list. It is just part of the life and business she has chosen to create.

Sarah Fraser, owner of Crave Fitness Studio.
Sarah Fraser Crave Fitness Owner/Operator
Sarah Fraser has been working in the ďŹ tness industry for nearly a decade. Her passion and dedication to teaching and training began with the martial arts when she was 15, and over the years has evolved, leading to certiďŹ cations in yoga, weight training, personal training, sport speciďŹ c training and, of course, kickboxing. Her time spent working with a variety of ďŹ tness levels and age groups have given her the skill to accommodate multi level classes. Sarah has a down to earth personality, but is not afraid to push her clients when they are straying from their goals or need to be challenged. Sarah Fraser opened Crave Fitness an inviting community-based studio, open to all levels of ďŹ tness, in February of 2010. Crave Fitness oers a selection of ďŹ tness and yoga classes that will challenge, inspire and motivate you to take it to the next level. Ground yourself in a Yoga class, amp up your cardio in Out Door Boot Camp, or sweat it out during Kickboxing. The Studio also oers personal training and private group training that comes to you. Challenge your friends to join you for private group training sessions that will have you looking your best this summer or enjoy training one on one in the comfort of your own home.

Kim Williams Owner
“Kim Williams has been in business for 34 years. Wild Kingdom has been Okanagan’s premier shop for adults on Lawrence Ave since 1998 and Wild Kingdom: Erotic Luxury in West Kelowna since 2009. Kim won some attention for Olivia, Laurette, Kim Wild Kingdom after she appeared on CBC’s The Dragon’s Den in February of 2011. The TV appearance inspired Kim to focus on a refreshed business plan and manifest her dream of expanding the business to Maui where she will be opening up an island boutique later this year. Part of Kim’s vision is assembling a team of women who each bring a strong element to the quality of customer service provided. The key to successful customer service is an understanding for the needs of our guests. Respect for individuals and their exploration of sexuality is an important model we embrace. It is vital to have a firm grasp of product knowledge and excellent listening skills. Our goal is to offer a comfortable environment for men and women to approach new ideas for intimacy and self exploration. We welcome women, men, and transgender people of all orientations who shop with us. It is not necessarily intuitive for people to share their most intimate details, but Kim and her fully trained team makes it top priority to help guests feel comfortable doing just that. Kim’s passion to bring out the passion in others is truly what keeps her going.�

Veterinarian
Living in the Kelowna area for 20 years, I have witnessed the growth of the city. I experienced the threat of ďŹ res on our homes and watched in dread with neighbors as the beauty of the Okanagan landscape was engulfed in ames. I witnessed a community reach out and draw closer to help their neighbours, friends, strangers and animals. As a former regional buyer, I have extensive experience in managing projects, including analyzing, reviewing, processing and complying with all regulations. My past experience required me to travel most back roads of the Okanagan and all the main roads. In short, I know the area and can ďŹ nd that special quality that you are looking for in a home. With over 15 years managing projects, I understand that my primary responsibility, in all cases, is simple - to satisfy the client. As a Century 21ÂŽ Real Estate professional, I am dedicated to providing you with the highest quality service possible. My personal knowledge of the local Real Estate market is combined with the power of the Century 21 brand - the most recognized name in Real Estate today. Let me assist you in ďŹ nding your dream home, in a neighborhood that is right for you, and in the price range you want. Or if you are interested in selling a property, I also have the expertise to help you get the fastest sale possible and at the best price. I look forward to the opportunity of working with you!

I graduated from the WCVM in Saskatoon and joined our family owned veterinary practice in 2010. As a new graduate, I brought enthusiasm and new ideas while learning a great deal from my colleagues and parents, Alex and Susan Wales. I have taken a special interest in veterinary ultrasound and have made this an integral part of our diagnostic services. The practice had operated on the Wales family farm since 1986, but the business was in need of expansion and I felt a more central location would be a great beneďŹ t. After months of renovations, we moved into our new clinic located in the WinďŹ eld Shopping Center in January of this year. It was important to me that we maintain a professional, yet warm and inviting setting where our clients and patients would feel comfortable. I also made it a priority to update our diagnostic equipment to include digital ultrasound and x-ray and more complete laboratory capabilities. My goal is to provide good quality veterinary care, while fostering and maintaining long lasting relationships with our clients and their pets in our community.

Okanagan’s Bonneau gets her TV series on APTN STEVE KIDD Tracey Kim Bonneau got some very good news last week. The Okanagan artist, filmmaker and documentarian got word that one of her most ambitious projects, a documentary travel/food series, had been approved for production by the Aboriginal Peoples Television Network. “There were only three shows accepted
for the 2013 season and Wild Food was accepted. I officially have a television series,” said Bonneau, who was also recently recognized for her ongoing work in the Media Arts Award at the Okanagan Arts Awards. Wild Food is a major milestone for Bonneau on a journey that stretches all the way back to her youth, when she saw a First Nations journalist on the CBC. Bonneau, who knew immediate-
ly what she wanted to do. “So I pursued a career from a very young age. But I’ve always been a storyteller,” she said. But Wild Food is more than an expression of Bonneau’s story telling. It weaves together threads about growing up Okanagan, family, community, culture and health. “I grew up in a storytelling environment. I SEE BONNEAU A18

I recently came to the shelter from Dog Control when no one came to claim me, so now I am looking for my new forever home. Even though the staff here are guessing I’m a little older, you’d never know it from my behavior. I love to run and play - I love my toys, and I’m also very snuggly, I often hear the staff refer to me as a lap-dog, a “BIG” lap-dog. I can be a little particular on what other dogs I like to hang out with, but I do play well with others - it’s just a matter of meeting, and finding out. That being said, being a Husky, our breed is known to have a high “prey-drive”, so it’s probably best there are no cats around. If you’d like any further information on me, please speak with the staff here at the Kelowna SPCA.

AND IMPLEMENT COMMON RATES On April 11, 2012, the FortisBC Energy Utilities applied to the British Columbia Utilities Commission to amalgamate their natural gas utilities across the province and to implement common rates and services across their service areas starting January 1, 2014. Currently, FortisBC Energy Utilities is made up of three separate natural gas companies, operating in six service areas. The companies have their own services, service agreements (tariffs) and rates. If approved, the application would combine the three companies into one, under a single tariff, with common rates for the various regions. This Application has different implications for customers in each service area.

Showing ‘who we are as indigenous people’ BONNEAU FROM A17 grew up with laughter and lots of people eating. For us a meal would be two hours, because it was about the laughter and the visiting,� she said. “The meal was about the passing on of hunting stories and berry picking stories. Naturally, I segued into a storytelling career.� Later, when she was older and came down to the reserve, Bonneau saw a different side of native life, with alcoholism, drugs and aftereffects of the residential schools and years of suppression of their culture. “That’s the type of work I have done in my career is to create a greater understanding of who we are as indigenous people from a different perspective; saying ‘we’re talented, we’re creative,’� she said. “The
other part is breaking down the stereotype. What images do you see of yourselves doing great things? That’s why I got into television.� Wild Food weaves about together all those threads of Bonneau’s life. And it all came together when Bonneau’s doctor told her she was pre-diabetic. The doctor told her that if she didn’t take care, she would develop diabetes. “What I found in my research is that diabetes is killing First Nation People faster than alcoholism,� said Bonneau. “For me, I have always produced stories to make things better. I am not an idealist, I am a realist. If we can get the facts out there in a sensitive , moving way, it might change someone’s thinking. “I had realized for myself that I wanted to tell
a story that was fun, engaging and humorous. When I thought about a diabetes program, I thought, why don’t I do a food show,� said Bonneau, who describes herself as a foodie, who has enjoyed cooking since she was ten years old. But Bonneau didn’t want to do a show just about food and diabetes. She wanted to be able to show off the Okanagan, and she wanted to talk about Okanagan culture. “I want to inform people about the four food chiefs. Our ancient laws go back to the four food chiefs; Okanagan people are actually governed by food,� she said. Bonneau’s short demo reel shows her on an outing with native actor Nathaniel Arcand, first trying to catch a fish with a traditional gaffe and then grilling salmon on a plank on a barbecue in
the woods. “I was working long hours, eating fast food, getting overweight and showing signs of prediabetes. I was becoming depressed and I felt terrible. I wanted to do something about it. I want to understand what those four food chiefs are about,� Bonneau said in her voice-over. Each episode, Bonneau will invite in a different native actor as a guest. Then they will set out to gather and prepare a traditional food, whether that be salmon, moose, root plants. “We try and do it on our own and we find out that we don’t know that much; breaking down the stereotype of because you are native, you automatically know all the ways of hunting and fishing,� she said. “I am SEE BONNEAU A19

the real way to do it,� she said. “We’re thinking we’re going to get a stoic elder, and of course we do have some really funny elders that we’re going to be working with.� That, she said, will show that these are very real people that are preserving their traditions, not the Hollywood image of a native elder.

Heroes with a message soar once again over Lake Country
FREESTYLE MOTORCROSS SHOW coming to GESS to promote a dry grad.
On May 24, 12-1 pm, CnC Crash Co along with Reagan Sieg Entertainment will be hosting the Kelowna Freestyle Motocross Show at George Elliot Secondary School to promote a dry graduation. Canadian FMX Icons Reagan Sieg, Jeff Fehr, and Kris Foster will be performing as well as sharing a message about the dangers of drinking and driving, as well as the importance of taking smart risks in extreme sports. While life is about making choices, it is important that students understand that the choices that they make now will affect the rest of their lives. From snowboarding to downhill mountain biking, extreme sports are mainstream media. This is what our kids watch. The youth of today relate to these athletes
and try to emulate them. To have these highly influential sport figures communicate a positive and critical message to our high school students will change and could potentially save lives! The SMARTRISK “No Regrets”, with the support of the Central Okanagan Foundation, will be sponsoring the event by providing bus transportation to and from the show for selected students from each of the local high schools in School District #23. SMARTRISK is non-profit organization whose fundamental aim is to encourage youth to take educated and calculated risks in all areas of their lives. Two years ago a similar event took place at GESS and approximately 800 students and locals watched in awe.
It is expected that over 1000 people will be attending this year’s event. Put yourself in the shoes of these students; a warm May day, watching their heroes flying high above Lake Country. What an opportunity to create a strong message around making smart choices, especially with the sometimes more “reckless” season of summer upon us. We invite all in the community to come out and join the students in watching; entry fee by donation. As the GESS grad banquet is the previous weekend, this will put a bold exclamation point what has been a fantastic grad year experience so far. GESS grads recently won the Provincial BCAA Dry Grad Challenge with their video on the dangers of drinking and driving, and along with
the local Rotary Club and the District of Lake Country are involved in filming a pedestrian safety video. The grads, with the assistance of grad sponsor, Chad Wardman, look forward to helping with the logistics of this event and are quickly becoming leaders in the area of teen and public safety. There are sponshorship packages available for this event, through Reagan Sieg Entertainment, to help offset the “fixed costs” (fencing, insurance, etc.). If you would like to be involved, contact Chad.Wardman@sd23.bc.ca It is absolutely the most exciting opportunity that we’ve seen and it sends a strong positive message to our kids and our community. We’re all proud to be a part of this!
Interest groups promote pedestrian safety By Nick Novak On March 30, a large group of volunteers took part in yet another bone chilling short film produced by George Elliot Secondary students Erik Madsen, Dan Harrison and Nick Novak (Erik Madsen Productions). The film was a joint initiative

At 7:30pm, the road was blocked off to traffic by auxiliary police officers during filming. Coffee was supplied to the volunteers by Lake Country McDonald’s and snacks were supplied by Lake Country IGA. The film took a rough start as the film crew desperately tried to get the scene set up quickly. The volunteers stood politely and patiently along the side of the road awaiting instructions from the film crew. The first scene spanned close to two hours. With the biggest and longest scene done away with, the volunteers were able to warm up on the bus and enjoy refreshments. The crew worked hard to keep things on track and on time. At around 12:25am the majority of filming had been done
and the volunteers were sent home. However, the crew and RCMP members stayed
