STRAWBERRY TEA - Eunice Bottonfield, Cathie Yingling and Shirley Campbell enjoy their fresh strawberry shortcake at the United Church on June 7. The United Church women made more than 400 cakes for their 50th anniversary. They held a tea at the church, and also delivered shortcakes topped with fresh strawberries and whipped cream to people and businesses in Princeton.

First Nation bands ask for locum money Michaela Garstin editor@similkameenspotlight.com

The Upper and Lower Similkameen Indian bands are urging the government to provide money for locums to keep Princeton Hospital emergency department open 24 hours a day.

Weather Watch

The bands asked the minister of health to provide $500,000 to help attract locums to Princeton, which has none on staff. Upper Similkameen Chief Charlotte Mitchell said a 24/7 emergency department at Princeton Hospital is vital because of the band’s involvement in the forestry sector. “We recognize that you share industry and First Nations’ commitment to the safety and well being of the people of

Princeton

British Columbia, and that you understand in particular the needs of those who work in the forest products industry,” Mitchell said in a letter to Minister of Health Michael de Jong. Princeton Hospital has been closed from midnight to 8 a.m. Monday to Thursday since May 1.

SECONDARY SUITE

- Town council declined to allow a homeowner to have a basement suite in Westridge Court based on a petition from residents in the neighbourhood.

Homeowners in Westridge Court likely won’t be allowed basement suites in the near future.

ROYAL CANADIAN LEGION: General meeting held on the third Sunday of each month at 1:00 PM.

Residents signed a petition to keep secondary suites out of the neighbourhood after a young couple announced they wanted to create one. Town council listened to the petition signers and decided to stop the basement suite from going into the house located in a new subdivision on the west side of Princeton. “Some 20 people out of 37 homes in the subdivision have come forward with a signed document expressing that they would be very much against us

issuing this variance. This concerns me,” said Coun. Frank Armitage. The petition said homeowners in Westridge Court purchased their property knowing it was just for single families. They were concerned more renters would mean more vehicles on the street, which would interfere with their children playing. They pointed out there are other areas in town that allow basement suites. Coun. Marilyn Harkness said the decision was difficult to make because the young couple needed the basement suite to help pay for their property. “But on the other hand we have to pay attention to that many neighbours who signed a petition not wanting to see a secondary suite go into a home in their neighbourhood,” she said.

SpotlightNEWS Keremeos names released in drug bust Steve Arstad Keremeos Review

The news is out - a story in The Province named the three Canadians under arrest in New Caledonia after police boarded their sailboat and found 200 kilograms of cocaine on March 31. Bob and Cindy Stanley, and Gary Yuzik are reportedly being held in New Caledonia’s only prison, infamously known for its dirty and overcrowded conditions. The three are well know in the Lower Similkameen and South Okanagan.

Bob Stanley worked for the Village of Keremeos for 21 years in the maintenance department. He became the village’s maintenance foreman in 2006, retiring on a long term disability in April of 2010. Although most of council and the village CAO did not know Stanley personally, CAO Laurie Taylor said there was nothing in the files to indicate there were issues with Stanley’s employment. The Stanley’s last known address was in Summerland. Gary Yuzik had a RE/Max real estate office in Keremeos for a period of time.

Duncan MacKenzie at Princeton Bike Park. Special to the Spotlight Luci Mackenzie

I must say that Duncan, during those times when he worked with you and your community, spoke so highly of all of you. In his eyes, your love of neighbours and love of community was an inspiration to anyone who witnessed it. He talked about the volunteers and how he loved working with them more than any other force because volunteers really wanted to be there and worked with heart and soul. They showed up with smiles, energy and equipment and they were ready to get dirty. He said there is no happier work crew than a volunteer work crew. I’m not sure if you understand how much of an impact your community spirit had on Duncan. You lifted him up. I have thought of you all so many times in the last (almost) four months. You tend to think of the people who made him happy and your whole community made him happy. Those smiling little faces of the children made him happy. We’re trying to keep our focus on all the wonderful influences and experiences he had in his short life and the Princeton community is right up there. I am so appreciative of that and I thank you all. I must apologize for not writing sooner - I have thought of you so

many times but it’s still so difficult to put my thoughts into words. I find myself going back to the picture of Duncan and that little boy on their bikes and it warms my heart and makes me smile. So a big, heartfelt thank you to the whole, wonderful community of Princeton -- you are an inspiration. Duncan’s Ride June 16th, 2012 10 a.m.: Event starts at the Bike Corral.

SpotlightOPINION

Wildﬁre should send a message Staff Writer Keremeos Review

Last week’s wild fire in Keremeos may be a harbinger of what’s to come this summer, if long term weather forecasts prove accurate. It was surprising to see how aggressive fire behaviour is, even at this early point in the season. Trees were still candling on Monday morning, an hour or two into what was predicted to be a rainy week. The fire will also, hopefully, drive home the point that there are consequences to all those in the Similkameen Valley who believe it is their right to throw a match onto a burn pile whenever they feel like it. Even before the investigation is concluded into the fire, there is some strong evidence that it was human caused through an illegal burn. The BC Forest Service has been trying to pound the message home since the season began that we need to be careful and conscientious when using fire outdoors. However, all the fires that have occurred in the Kamloops Fire District this year have been human caused - and with the weekend fire in Keremeos not being an exception, it may be time for the BC Forest Service to use their authority to make an example of those who choose not to listen: Anyone found having of an open fire ban may be issued a ticket for $345 or, if convicted in court, may be fined up to $100,000 and sentenced to one year in jail. If the fire causes or contributes to a wildfire, the person responsible may be subject to a penalty of up to $10,000 and be ordered to pay all firefighting and associated costs.

Hydro now projects electricity demand could rise by 50 per cent He said producers have made huge investments in B.C. shale gas drilling rights, and are in an international race to supply LNG to over the next 20 years. The emergence of huge shale gas sources in B.C. and across Asian countries where the price is currently four times higher than the United States has changed the North American energy picture in North America. Whatever the domestic price, B.C. gas producers have to show dramatically, as U.S. electricity producers replace coal by burning cheaper and cleaner gas to ramp up power production.

Princeton artist George Donovan intricately paints what he lives - the cowboy lifestyle. His rustic artwork features saddled horses, cowboys wearing leather chaps and ranch scenes. “I go for realism. Someone once told me my paintings look too much “I draw like photographs, but others pictures of have told me that’s exactly what they like about them,” places I want Donovan told the Spotlight to be...” while wearing his signature George Donovan cowboy hat and plaid shirt. Princeton painter “It’s up to each artist to decide what they like to create.” Donovan has been painting for eight years - a late start for the typical artist. But his creativity stems back to elementary school some 60 years ago. He did pencil drawing but stopped when he had to start working full time. Donovan’s love of horses and inspiration for his artwork started while growing up on an acreage in North Vancouver. He rode his horse to school everyday and left it in the field until his lessons finished. It wasn’t until he came to Princeton that he took professional painting lessons and developed his unique style. “I draw pictures of places I want to be, like 100

”

Mile House. I still ride horses so I like to draw them too,” the artist says. He first takes a photo of the person or scene and then paints it using acrylics. Donovan bred horses on a small ranch, but stopped when the demand fell. He know owns a couple of horses and boards three others. He sees himself improving, particularly from when he first started. His first painting of himself and a horse was given to his mother as a present. “She thought it was wonderful. But when I saw it again after I had been painting for a while, I fixed it up to make it better,” he says. Painting generally isn’t a year-round activity for the cowboy artist. He does most of his painting in the winter when the cold days give him more time off. “I train horses and I am a pastor at Foursquare “It’s up to Church, I’m usually pretty busy,” he says. each artist to He is also helping out with a play his wife decide what Esther is both directing they like to and starring in. Donovan’s life has create” gone the way it was destined to. The results of a test he took in ninth grade told him he would grow up to be either a cowboy or preacher. His paintings can be seen at the Sunflower Art Gallery in Princeton.

PRINCETON LIONS

Local musicians to be in need Lisa Carleton lisa@similkameenspotlight.com

Music instructor Myrna Coates has brought a â&#x20AC;&#x153;very nice problemâ&#x20AC;? to light. The problem is, is that there are more band students in Princeton than there are instruments to use. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The problem is a nice one, given the fact that there is a high interest in music, however not having enough instruments for the students to use presents a real problem,â&#x20AC;? said Coates. Although the school year is coming to a close at the end of this month, a new year with new students begins in September. Flutes, clarinets, trumpets, trombones and saxophones are needed to equip students with an instrument. Drum sets are welcomed as well for students needing a set for practice at home. Take a look through your closets and storage, if you have an instrument that is gathering dust and needs a good home, please deliver it to Vermilion Forks Elementary School or call Myrna Coates at 250-295-6642.

MOCK CRIME - Students at Vermilion Forks Elementary put on a pretend crime scene

Students at Vermilion Forks Elementary have spent the last few weeks learning how to match fingerprints, analyze hair samples, check paper tears and decipher forgery. Science has been exciting, especially now that they are putting their skills to the test to solve mock crimes. Pictured to the left is Shelby Bothe, who carefully removed a piece of evidence from the victim, Jade Marco. Other students matched footprints, gathered evidence and interviewed the suspects. After much investigation, the students were able to narrow down the list of suspicious characters, discover the motive, and ultimately identify the perpetrator.

SpotlightNEWS DRUGS Continued from Page 5.

The office was gutted by fire in 2009. A cause was never established. Yuzik also served as president of Similkameen Country, the local Chamber of Commerce, in 2009. The Osoyoos Times revealed the names of two residents arrested during a grow-op bust on Cactus Crescent in Osoyoos on November 23, 2009. Gary Yuzik and his wife Evelyn were arrested and were alleged to have operated a grow op in the residence. They were facing charges of production of a controlled substance, but after a scheduled court appearance on Jan.13, 2010, the charges were dropped. Most recently, Yuzik was conducting business out of an office located in the OK Corral plaza in Okanagan Falls. Sources say the office was mysteriously and suddenly abandoned several months ago. Rumours circulated through Keremeos in March regarding the disappearance of the three when close friends did not hear from them for several weeks. Cindy and Bob Stanley.

June 2012 CAPRICORN: Laughter lights up your world this week, Capricorn. Everyone it seems is in good spirits and has something funny to share. A memo is not reason for pause. AQUARIUS: Peace fills your home, and you must work quickly to find a way to ensure it stays that way, Aquarius. A health concern eases with an alternative treatment. PISCES: Boredom sets in at home, and it’s up to you to liven things up, Pisces. Hot days call for cool fun. A letter seals the deal, and you must get cracking.

ARIES: Passion sizzles with a one-of-a-kind gift, Aries. Tasks get checked off the to-do list quickly with delegation. An auto dilemma is solved with resourcefulness. TAURUS: Too bad, Taurus. You give it a try, but alas, it doesn’t work. Try not to get too worked up about it. A bigger, better opportunity is in store. GEMINI: Prepare for your brain to be picked, Gemini, when old friends drop by. They’re looking for something, which you may or may not be able to provide. CANCER: Oh, how you long for the good times, and oh, how you’re about to get them, Cancer. Everything you touch will be golden this week! LEO: Caution, Leo. Now is not the time to drop the ball. Be diligent, and you’ll come out on top. A promotion of some sort could be in order. VIRGO: All eyes are on you, Virgo, and you rise to the occasion. An adventure on the water brings the gang together for some fun under the sun. LIBRA: Of all the offers you receive, none will be as good as the one that comes your way this week, Libra. Don’t say no. A habit turns out to be harder to break than thought. SCORPIO: Round and round you go, Scorpio. Where you fall no one knows—except for that little chap that’s been following you. Act fast to get back on track. SAGITTARIUS: Hold back, Sagittarius. Enthusiasm can be contagious, but it can also be a turnoff. Restraint is key. Motivate but don’t push. An organization beckons.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;This means that there is no professional medical support for our employees at times when Upper Similkameen Indian Band logging operation are functioning to our fullest capacity,â&#x20AC;? Mitchell said. If a serious accident were to happen, the employee would have to be transported by ambulance to Penticton an hour and 20 minutes away, she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Those 80 minutes could mean the difference between a full recovery on the one hand and serious disability, even death, on the other,â&#x20AC;? said Lower Similkameen Chief Robert Edward in another letter to the health minister. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We understand attracting and retaining general practitioners to rural communities calls for longer term solutions, [but] emergency services canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wait.â&#x20AC;? The $500,000, which could come from the Rural General Practitioner Locum Program, could help Princeton attract locums for a year while the bands work with the government to develop a long-term strategy, Edward said.

told the Spotlight last month that the trick to providing complete emergency room coverage in Princeton is to attract locums and eventually a new doctor. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The long-term (solution) is to bring physicians to town to establish practice... In the short-term we need to get people from out of town to help us out,â&#x20AC;? he said. Fraser-Nicola MLA Harry Lali said doctors arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t coming to Princeton because they canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t practice services they trained for, such as surgery and delivering babies. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I know the Liberals like to blame doctors, and say: â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not an issue of finances. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an issue of doctors not wanting to come to small towns,â&#x20AC;? said Lali at the legislative assembly in May. Princetonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s health care problem is caused by lack of money, not the number of doctors available to work in B.C., he said. But de Jong said funding doctors is not the problem, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s finding them. â&#x20AC;&#x153;To suggest, somehow, that there is an issue around the funding of the primary caregiver in the guise of the doctor is simply inaccurate and untrue,â&#x20AC;? he said.
