Carla McLeod Special to the Review
The best days ever are the childhood ones at the lake. Here Halee McLeod enjoys what we’d all like to be doing on a summer day.
A proposed change in federal electoral boundaries could have a big impact on Summerland. The redrawn lines would cut Summerland off from Penticton and the rest of the South Okanagan. Summerland would be the southernmost point in a new riding of Central Okanagan-Coquihalla which would include Kelowna. Summerland Mayor Janice Perrino said the change would be “quite a shocking difference.” “This affects Summerland hugely,” she said at last week’s municipal council meeting. “We do all our business with Penticton,” noting links with governing organizations such as Penticton Regional Hospital and Okanagan Skaha School District 67 as well as commerce. She said she understands how such boundary proposals come about, when people unfamiliar with the area try to divide it up by population. “People sit down and look at a map.” Summerland council has directed its staff to prepare a written notice to advise the B.C. Federal Boundaries Commission that council is not in favour of the changes in the proposed boundaries and electoral districts. The notice also says the mayor and council would like to participate in the commission’s public hearing set for Oct. 9 at the Penticton Lakeside Resort. See PROPOSED Page 3
Scenes for film shot locally Summerland scenes were shot last week for a 3-D short film about the Stanley Cup. Stanley Cup Odyssey is being made for the Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto. Most of the scenes were filmed at the the historic Memorial Arena in Penticton.
The Summerland scenes included a house on Washington Avenue and an area near College Road. Stanley Cup Odyssey tells the story of a group of young men who play their regular pick-up game at the local arena with skill and grace,
while they share their own personal favourite Stanley Cup moments. As the players reminisce and attempt to emulate their hockey heroes, the on-ice action will transition to Stanley Cup goals scored by the game’s most iconic players: Wayne Gretz-
ky, Mario Lemieux and Bobby Orr. A mix of original live action, computer generated animation and classic archival footage of some of the most renowned moments in Stanley Cup history will be showcased in the film. Stanley Cup winner and B.C. native,
Ryan Walter, is assisting with the on-ice co-ordination. Darren Mann, who is a cast member in the film, played hockey with the Summerland Sting when he was 15 and a few games with the Penticton Vees.

Survey shows opposition to GMO fruit by Richard Rolke Black Press Okanagan orchardists say they have the required proof to fight genetically modified fruit. A national survey indicates 69 per cent of the 1,501 respondents are not in favour
of a genetically engineered apple. “We are not in favour of genetically modified food because of the market risk,” said Glen Lucas, B.C. Fruit Growers Association general manager. “The survey valid-
Surveys received About 350 of the 1,000 surveys sent to Summerland households were filled in and returned to municipal hall by the deadline July 15. The survey seeks input about the direction and priorities of the community. Mayor Janice Perrino said the results are interesting and informative. She said “thanks” to the people who took the time to complete the survey. A report on survey results will be released in August.
Tours available at new RCMP building Summerland’s new RCMP building will officially open July 27. Public tours will be conducted from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m. that day. Space is limited so participants need to sign up in advance by contacting Karen Jones at the municipal hall at 250-494-6451 or kjones@summerland.ca. The 14,600 square foot building at 9101 Pineo Ct. was designed for maximum fuel and power efficiency. Construction cost is $4.6 million.

“I think we need to be there and I think we need to voice our concerns that our citizens will not be well served.” The new boundary suggestions are made every 10 years by electoral commissions across Canada. The new ridings would change the political landscape of the Southern Interior for a 2015 election. Dan Albas, who lives in Penticton and currently represents OkanaganCoquihalla, calls the proposal “very interesting,” but is concerned about the Summerland split from Penticton. Albas noted too that the changes aren’t final, and still subject to a public comment period this fall before a final proposal is sent to Parliament. John Hall, a B.C.

Changing boundaries The proposed changes to federal electoral boundaries in the Southern Interior of British Columbia make little sense. The changes, which would affect the 2015 federal election, would put Summerland into the new riding of Central Okanagan-Coquihalla, the riding which will also include Kelowna. Penticton would be in the riding of South OkanaganWest Kootenay. Considering the close ties between Summerland and Penticton, putting the communities into two different federal ridings is puzzling. The ties are not nearly as strong between Summerland and Kelowna. Putting Penticton into the same riding as some of the West Kootenay communities is even more confusing. The South Okanagan is not the same as the Boundary and West Kootenay region. This is not the first time the ridings have been awkward or puzzling. In the 1990s, the riding which included Summerland and Penticton also included Hope, a community with strong ties to the Upper Fraser Valley but not to the Okanagan. Electoral boundaries are redrawn from time to time in order to divide the province and the country into even, manageable segments, based on population. The proposed changes will increase the number of seats in the House of Commons from 308 to 338. While the principle is sound, redrawing boundaries quickly becomes complicated. Each region in British Columbia has its own characteristics, based on age, income, economic activity and more. These characteristics must be respected. Boundaries will need to be redrawn from time to time, but there are ways to do this without creating disjointed ridings and without putting communities into ridings where they do not fit well.
We are glad Summerland was selected for some scenes in a short film about hockey. The filming was done recently at a house on Wa s h i n g t o n Avenue and at an area near College Road. We hope to see additional film projects here in the future. Every bit of exposure can help to promote the community as a place for people to visit and as a great place to live.
Hitting the information highway VICTORIA – By the time you read this I should be in Vanderhoof, the geographical centre of B.C., to visit relatives. Born in the Okanagan, raised in the Peace country and working for 20 years in Metro Vancouver, I’ve driven from one end of the province to the other more times than I can count. A similar trip last year began just as a huge mudslide was cleared near Chilliwack. Other drives Tom Fletcher have featured mid-summer hail piled 10 centimetres deep on the Coquihalla, a near miss between two moose in the Pine Pass, plus the usual blizzards and hundreds of traffic jams for construction, accidents and growing urban volume delays. This time I’ve got a new tool on board, the mobile version of DriveBC.ca on my BlackBerry. Launched two years, ago, the mobile site has taken off with the surging popularity of smartphones. In the past year, DriveBC’s online traffic averaged 1.2 million visits a month, about half to the five-year-old desktop site and half from mobile users. It’s by far the most popular B.C. government website. I asked DriveBC technical leader Nainesh Agarwal for these stats, and he said even he was surprised by the surge in mobile traffic in recent months.
But trying out the mobile site, it’s easy to see the appeal. With a few clicks, the phone displays incident reports and web camera images for my chosen route. Webcams have been added steadily all over the province, and now watch 18 key locations on Vancouver Island, 93 in the Lower Mainland, 73 in the Southern Interior, 35 in the North and 13 at Canada-U.S. border crossings. At a glance, you can check
from highways staff and contractors all over the province and co-ordinated through the provincial highways condition centre in the Lower Mainland. It’s become a primary source of information for radio and TV traffic and news reporters around B.C. The mobile service now has an option for drivers to report new problems they encounter. After determining your smartphone’s location, the site displays the name and phone
At a glance, you can check anything from the traffic at the Lions Gate Bridge to the lineup for the Skidegate ferry on Haida Gwaii. anything from the traffic at the Lions Gate Bridge to the lineup for the Skidegate ferry on Haida Gwaii. Most pictures update every two minutes, offering a realtime look at traffic, weather and road conditions. A recent addition is “replay the day,” which shows the last 24 hours of pictures in a few seconds. Another new feature is an e-mail alert that can be customized. You can subscribe to a particular region or highway and receive notices as soon as they are posted to the DriveBC network. And of course there is an @drivebc Twitter feed, where between 6:30 a.m. and midnight, staff update conditions and respond to inquiries. (Major events are automatically tweeted overnight.)

number of the local maintenance contractor who can take the report. For those who haven’t joined the smartphone era, there is an old-fashioned option. Dialing 5-1-1 anywhere in the province gives access to a toll-free line that connects to recorded DriveBC messages. Agarwal said use of that service has been declining as phones with web access become more popular. The 5-1-1 service also requires you to use the keypad to select your route from a numerical list, so drivers would have to pull over rather than breach the new restrictions on using handheld devices while driving. Tom Fletcher is legislative reporter and columnist for Black Press and BCLocalnews. com. tfletcher@blackpress.ca
culls The response to the community surveys is a little disappointing. Earlier, surveys were sent to 1,000 households, asking for input about the community’s direction and priorities for the coming years. Only 350 of the surveys were completed and returned by the July 15 deadline. A lot of Summerlanders have some good ideas which could help the entire community, but those ideas must be voiced. In order to create and maintain a good community, it is important to have the participation of the public.

Positive, practical approach for PRH Dear Editor, Penticton Secondary School, Jim Pattison Centre of Excellence, South Okanagan Events Centre and the upgraded pool facility are examples of significant building capital investments in Penticton over the past few years. These education
and recreation facilities benefit the residents of Penticton and surrounding communities. A conceptual plan for a four-story patient care tower addition to the Penticton Regional Hospital has been completed for what could potentially be the next big capital
building project in Penticton to serve the South Okanagan. The RDOS and Penticton Hospital Foundation have committed to fund $140 million of the $300 million price tag, and Interior Health has indicated that the Penticton Regional Hospital is a number
one priority for the region. The need for a significant upgrade to our hospital has been clearly identified, and we are almost half way towards funding the plan, thanks to good leadership, patience and persistence. We ought not to
be deterred or discouraged by the $80 million funding announced for Royal Inland Hospital in Kamloops. During the years that I served as Board Chair of the Okanagan Skaha School district, I found that good solid planning, community support,
clearly identified need and cooperation with all levels of government resulted in school capital announcements (Penticton Secondary, Princess Margaret restructure, Summerland Middle and Skaha Lake Middle Schools). The PRH Ambu-

West Summerland was not exactly a busy shopping hub in 1913. As much as our town has grown and changed since then, it’s gratifying to see that some of our past is in our present. We can still walk into any of these four original buildings on Main Street as well as the “newer” ones that followed. When you’re in town, take note of the pieces of the past that are the foundations of the friendly community that we call home. The Summerland Museum is a great place to find out more.
Corporate graffiti offends visitors Dear Editor. Literally millions of tax dollars are being spent every year promoting tourism, trying to attract visitors to help sustain local economies. But the first impressions we expose those tourists to when they arrive in the Okanagan Valley, is what
must be the biggest and the most obnoxious collection of corporate graffiti. Visitors are all finding it extremely offensive, and are wondering why our politicians are allowing this to happen. If we want those tourists to continue to come here, we
have to ban all offsite advertising as part of our strategy to promote tourism, and then penalize businesses who do not comply. A business license is not a permit to deface public properties with graffiti. To lead by example, Summerland city
council should also rescind the plan to waste precious tax dollars on some glitzy sign that will only add to the proliferation of that graffiti. The tourist info center on the highway and existing signage is already more than adequate.
Big box stores are sucking the lifeblood out of the local downtown business core. Visitors are drawn to those stores and are not coming back, no matter how big and ugly those billboards are. If local businesses want to survive in
this market they may have to reconsider their business plans, or follow their customers. To deface our downtown, our flowerbeds and public boulevards with graffiti will only promote the exodus. Andy Thomsen Summerland
Dear Editor: All too often lately we hear more bad news than good news concerning the RCMP, but I would like to give a big thank you to the members in Summerland, especially Const. J.A. Lefebvre who took the extra time before going off shift to check a suspicious vehicle which was towing my property. It had just been stolen and I would not have known until I headed out for work and by that time would have been long gone. I’m so glad that we have our own RCMP in Summerland.

Cemetery cleanup was disrespectful Dear Editor: I’ve recently been made aware that a Summerland Cemetery has undergone a major cleanup. I’m
not exactly sure what this entails as I live in Alberta and can only go by what I’ve heard from other family members.
I’ve been told that a lot of very personal items were removed from the cemetery. These items meant a great deal to surviv-
ing members of the family. This action indicates a serious lack of respect for the deceased and also for their survivors,
and is not the type of scenario that I would expect from a peaceful little town in the Okanagan — a town where I grew up and
where both my parents were put to rest. I would like to thank Mr. Don Darling (Public Works Department in Sum-
merland) for returning my phone call and for his sincere apology. Eleanor Low (nee Martin) Sherwood Park, Alta.

Dear Editor: Congrats to the Summerland Golf and Country Club on their first ever “welcome back to golf” event held on Sunday, July 15. After a few years of non-golf, we were so impressed by the warm welcome and helpful assistance at the event. Management, staff, professionals and a group of seasoned mentors worked together to
make this happen for, us, basically a bunch of duffers. This was an event that attracted more than 75 participants to a “welcome back to golf” afternoon — and it was a huge success in every way. Participants received helpful info and tips on golf, from etiquette to putting to chipping to driving. We then were able to play a round, accompanied by a

Review, June 28. I suppose we knew it would happen sooner or later, but nevertheless it is sad when it does happen. My parents spent many happy hours, as did their friends, trying for “the right subject, the right light, the right background” and any other detail. When the group put together a slide program for their Concert in Colour, held once a year if possible, no one, other than the mem-
bers, knew how much work went into selecting the right slides for each presentation. I was not a member, but have happy memories of watching my parents take pictures, cull out the bad ones and present the good ones for competitions. Thank you to the few remaining members. You have brought happiness and fond memories to look back on. Pat Schramm Summerland

Stable under construction at Critteraid by John Arendt Construction has begun on a stable at Critteraid’s animal sanctuary on Giant’s Head Road. On Thursday, Okanagan College students were at the facility to prepare and pour the concrete for the footings for the stable. This phase is funded in part with a $5,027 donation from the Vancouver Foundation. The next phase is the completion of the structure. The final phase is the completion of fencing and gates for all the paddocks and pastures. Students from Okanagan College will participate as the prime contractor during all phases, providing their labour at no cost. The need for the stable began in early 2011 when Steve Thomson, Minister of Natural Resource
Operations, authorized a wild horse be given to Critteraid. The horse was one of several which were being rounded up in the Deadman Valley near Kamloops to protect sensitive range ecosystems. Critteraid acquired six horses, including three pregnant mares. Thomson later said it was his intention to look into the legislation surrounding abandoned livestock on Crown lands. After Gillian Lorimer and Judy Colpitts contacted Thomsen, encouraging that the horses go to Critteraid, ministry staff looked into possibilities for groups like Critteraid to invest in the horses. Colpitts, coordinator of disability ser-
vices and student services at Okanagan College, spoke with John Kenny, a Critteraid volunteer who works in the civil engineering technology department at the college. They then spoke with Alf Leimert, the college’s chair of construction trades, to see about the possibility of students building one or two loafing sheds at Critteraid. Leimert then spoke with staff, including Darrell Butler, one of the instructors at the college. Critteraid president Deborah Silk had said one of the capital projects at Critteraid was to abandon the present loafing sheds for horses since they are too close to the riparian area.

Filial Duty is a phrase not many people have likely heard. It's the duty of a child to care for his or her parent. There is legislation in British Columbia that sets out this duty. This law is now being put to the test. A case was commenced in the South Okanagan with this duty as its centerpoint. A mother is suing her son for money to cover her future care. Whether or not she is successful will depend on the circumstances of the case. Whether you agree with such a law or not it certainly raises very interesting questions and debates.

Yes. Dentists have encouraged removing dentures at night for years. However, research is finding that you can breathe better at night with your denture in. Getting a good night’s rest is vital to your health. I have discussed sleep apnea in a previous article and it is linked to health risks like: high blood pressure, depression, and weight gain. Not to “forget” that your memory will improve if your quality of sleep improves. 70% of complete denture wearers suffer from sleep apnea if they do not wear their dentures at night. So, why in the past did we encourage you to take it out? Basically to give your gum tissue a break. I still encourage you to take your denture out at some time during the day. You could try to remove it while you are in the shower or bath, that way you could gently clean your gums and denture as well. Make sure you are always very gentle to clean the inside part of the denture since that is where the fit of the denture comes from. Just use a soft cloth and non abrasive soap. Brushes are fine to use on the outside of your denture with a gentle cleaner. I like to see my patients with full upper and lower dentures once a year to make sure their gum tissue is healthy. So leave your denture in at night and enjoy a better night’s sleep! 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!

Shakespeare play staged
In the gardens The Friends of Summerland Gardens Society held their 21st anniversary tea at the Ornamental Gardens on Saturday. Mayor Janice Perrino, right, presented society president Charlotte Leaming, left, and secretary Dorthea Atwater a cheque for $7,500 from the District of Summerland. The society has worked hard at preserving the gardens as an attractive feature of the community. They are currently raising money to implement a water conservation project, expanding the water wise gardening principles already in place. They wish to lead by example and to promote and inspire all gardeners to use water wise principles. They have demonstration beds in place and will be conducting workshops in the future. Volunteers are always needed to join the team.
As You Like It is perhaps the best of Shakespeare’s comedies to stage outdoors. Freedom and nature’s ability to renew the human spirit are elements in this play where characters flee oppression and the artificiality of court life to find peace of mind, selfknowledge and true love in the Forest of Arden. Love is a theme in the play and different types of lovers are illustrated. Rosalind and Orlando represent true love, built on friendship; while Oliver, when reformed from his initial cruel behaviour is able to fall for Celia, and the earthy jester Touchstone weds the simple country girl Audrey. Forgiveness and restitution are also key motifs. The young hero

Orlando is driven from home by his older brother Oliver who has treated him like a slave and cheated him out of his inheritance. In the forest, Orlando saves Oliver from a crouching lion and is himself wounded. The brothers are then reconciled. The good Duke Senior was driven from his lands by his usurping brother Ferdinand and has been living with his loyal supporters in the forest, like Robin Hood. At the end of the play, inspired by a holy man Ferdinand restores all that he stole and retires to live and meditate in a cave. Town and country life are compared wittily, when the runaway courtiers encounter the local shepherds. All’s well that ends well. The goddess of marriage, Hymen closes the play with a blessing on the couples, there is music and a joyful dance. Written about 1599 to early 1600, As You Like It is notable for its poetic and telling language. Another feature of As You Like It is the number of songs that
it presents. There are more songs in this play than in any other of Shakespeare’s plays. As You Like It was even turned into a musical in 2007 and has been staged and filmed in many ways. Kenneth Branagh even set the play in 19th century Japan. The part of Rosalind, who disguises herself as the youth Ganymede, is one of Shakespeare’s great female roles. She is witty and optimistic, a good foil for the pessimistic, melancholy Jaques. Rae-Marie Leggott plays Rosalind, a part interpreted once by Edith Evans and more recently by Helen Mirren. Marlene Robinson, a veteran of Penticton Chamber Theatre’s Shakespeare productions, plays Celia, Rosalind’s cousin and bosom friend who follows her into exile. Orlando is young Tyler Fowler, an upand-coming talent studying theatre at the University of Victoria. In Summerland, the play will be shown on Aug. 7 and 8 at 7 p.m. in Memorial Park. Admission is by donation.

Orchard sprayer will be restored An old orchard sprayer, dating from the 1920s, will be restored and displayed at the Summerland Museum. Sharon Stone of the museum said the sprayer was donated in 2004 and at the time, plans were in the works to restore it. However, the plans did not materialize and the wagon has been at the municipal public works yard since that time. Earlier this year, Stone approached
John Topham, who was working on another restoration project for the museum. Topham said he has already spent around 60 hours restoring the sprayer. The work included sandblasting it to get rid of the rust and damages to the wood. Despite the rust, Topham said the sprayer was in good condition. “The integrity of the wagon was good,” he said. At present, everything on the sprayer
is original, including the one-cylinder engine in the rear. Topham said he tried to get colours which were as close as possible to the original colours of the machine. The only nonoriginal part of the sprayer will be the hose, which he will acquire from someone else in the community. Stone said she would like to see the sprayer finished for the Fall Fair in early September. The cost of the
Restoration work John Topham shows the work which has been done on a vintage orchard sprayer. The completed sprayer will be displayed at the Summerland Museum.

work is estimated at $3,000. Once it is completed, it will be on display in front of the museum, secured so it cannot be moved. It will also be used for parades and other community events.
To keep it safe from vandalism, Stone said flood lights will be installed to illuminate it 24 hours a day. She added that there are still some questions about the vintage wagon. Although museum

Canadians see themselves with gold I have the honour of working with CTV for the London 2012 Olympic Games as the swimming commentator and I will be sharing our Canadian athletes’ stories as they summit their athletic goals of winning an Olympic medal. There will be heartbreak and disappointment, but I have a feeling that after the positive ripple effect of Vancouver 2010 Olympics and the huge success of our athletes there is a new sense of self confidence and self belief that our present Canadian athletes possess. Our summer Olympic athletes are gearing up to achieve more than ever before. The countdown to the official Opening Ceremonies for the London 2012 Olympics is eight days away, on Friday July 27. The whole
world will watch the spectacle and athletic extravaganza to go on for the following 16 days. Competitive swimming starts on Saturdy, July 28 and is eight days in duration. The heavyweights will be the showdown between American swimming phenomenon Michael Phelps and Ryan Lochte who will battle it out on the first evening in the 400m Individual medley (IM). This IM event is where the swimmers swim all four strokes in one race- butterfly, backstroke, breaststroke and freestyle. If Phelps is successful in striking gold, he will be the first male to win the same event in three consecutive Olympic Games. Two females have already accomplished this feat, Australian swimmer Dawn Fraser and Hungarian
Kristina Egerzegi. Phelps had an incredible and flawless program winning eight gold medals in the 2008 Beijing Olympics. He holds the title for the most Olympic gold medals of any athlete, and will try to break the last remaining title- Most Overall Olympic Medals. He sits with 16 medals secured from his three Olympics, and will try to top Soviet gymnast Larisa Latynina’s 18 medals. With all the hype of Phelps and Lochte, let’s not overlook our Canadian team who are on a mission to rise to the medal podium. The Canadian swim team will be led by two British Columbians, Ryan Cochrane of Victoria and Brent Hayden of Mission. Hayden is a sprint specialist, a reigning silver medal-
LEISURE TIMES
Joanne Malar list in the 2011 World Championships in the 100m freestyle. While Cochrane is the bronze medalist from the 2008 Olympics in the 1500m and has his sights set on podium performances in both the 1500m and 400m freestyle events. Our Canadian women’s team could have some podium performances with Julia Wilkinson of Stratford Ontario who trains in Victoria and Sinead Russell of Burlington Ontario in the 100m backstroke.
The 200m breastroke will be a showdown with the Canadians right up there chasing the world record. Martha McCabe who trains in Vancouver alongside team mate Tera Van Beilen both train under breastroke guru Jozsef Nagy and recently posted times within reach of Olympic medal standards. I finished fourth and fifth at the Olympic Games, tenths away from an Olympic medal, but I can see the new identity of the Canadian team — a solid belief that they deserve to be best in the world — gives them more strength than previous teams. I know our Canadian athletes today believe they can climb that Olympic performance because they see themselves as worthy champions.
I recently heard an evolved saying that applies to our Canadian Olympic athletes. “You have to see it before you can achieve it!” The power of the mind and mental strength will play a huge role in the results of our Canadian athletes in London. Our Canadian swimmers see themselves winning gold and it will be an amazing honour and thrill to give the play by play of their journey. Have fun cheering
on our Canadian athletes and remember, they all started out like our local athletes — learning to love sport and all of its healthy benefits. Naturally for some, it progresses into something much more, simply because they are determined to make their dreams come true. Joanne Malar is a three-time Olympic Swimmer, 2012 CTV London Olympic Analyst, Summerland Parks and Recreation Programmer and Head Coach for ORCA Swim Team.

Margaret MERLE O’Shaughnessy R.N. (Nee Greenaway) 1917-2012 Our beautiful mother, grandmother and great grandmother, Merle, age 95, passed away peacefully at the Summerland Seniors Village on Saturday, July 14, 2012 where she was so lovingly cared for. Mom was born June 30, 1917 in Pettapiece, Manitoba to Lloyd and Cordelia Greenaway. Predeceased by her husband, Bill (1993); brothers Maurice, Glen (Marj) and Willis (Mona) Greenaway and brothers’ in law Earl (Marg), George, Howie (Esther) and Marvin (Mary) O’Shaughnessy. Besides her three children and their families, Merle will be missed by nieces, nephews, cousins, dear friends, wonderful neighbours, and sisters in law, Kay O’Shaughnessy of Winnipeg and Phyllis Greenaway of Hamiota, Mb. Mom was educated in Cardale and Oak River, Manitoba and then followed her childhood dream by becoming a registered nurse, graduating in 1940 from the Winnipeg General Hospital School of Nursing. Her career began in Orthopedics at the WGH followed by a year with VON and then six years of private duty nursing. She was a pioneer in Occupational Health nursing, working in the T. Eaton Co.’s seventh floor hospital in Winnipeg for six years. Before retiring to Summerland in 1977, Mom ended her active nursing career as the Evening Supervisor at Winnipeg’s Rehabilitation Hospital. She married our dad, Bill, in 1942 and they soon settled in West Kildonan, becoming active in Kildonan United Church. In Summerland, Mom was a valued member of so many organizations - the Garden Club, Pleasure Painters, Drop-In Centre, Peer Counseling, Healing Touch, Trans Canada Trail Assoc., Marie’s Tai Chi & UCW, among others. As well, she & Dad, volunteered with the Drop-In Centre when its members manned Summerland’s First Tourist Information Booth. As members of the Summerland United Church, Mom and Dad were active participants in the creation & implementation of Summerland’s Food Bank in 1984. Merle also spent many hours assisting visitors in our Art Gallery; cutting hair at Parkdale Place and taking blood pressures at the Drop-In. Honouring her gentle spirit, her Christian values and her memory are her son Michael (Louise) of Winnipeg, son Gary of Edmonton and daughter Sharon (Carl) of Summerland. Her six cherished grandchildren are Nyree O’Shaughnessy of Winnipeg, David, Patrick & Ryan O’shaughnessy & Chelsea (Jason) Bronevitch of Edmonton, and Travis (Cheryl) Bronevitch of Dugald, Mb. Pictures of her greatgrandchildren Tyler, Jared & wee Shaun always brought a smile from mom during her final days. She loved God, she loved nature and she loved all of us... We are so blessed. In lieu of flowers, a contribution to the Summerland United Church Memorial Fund or to a charity of your choice would be appreciated. A service of remembrance will be held Wednesday, July 25th, in Summerland United Church at one thirty pm with Rev. Elaine Diggle officiating.

RE/MAX Orchard Country 10124 Main St. 250-494-8881 IT’S BEEN YEARS! Over 10 years, actually, since Re/Max Orchard Country located at the corner of Main and South Victoria! In that time, we have seen many changes to the business of Real Estate. But through it all, we have strived to provide “old fashioned service with high tech results”.
EDUCATION & TRAINING Our Realtors have worked hard to stay ahead by investing in some of the highest education & training standards in the business. We have been recognized with numerous awards from within the Real Estate Industry, including the prestigious RE/MAX 100% Club year after year. In particular, Re/Max International has recognized both Tammy Antrobus and Kirk Roberge for the once in a lifetime sales recognition: RE/MAX Hall of Fame Award. It is quite an achievement, rarely bestowed upon Realtors from a small town, most often Realtors operating in the much larger markets such as Toronto, Vancouver, and Montreal are recipients, so we could not be more proud of their sales results here in Summerland.
CHILDRENS MIRACLE SUPPORT But by far the one award we are MOST proud of as a team here at RE/MAX, is that we have consistently achieved the designation of MIRACLE OFFICE year after year for our work and financial support of the Miracle Network for Kids.
REAL ESTATE BUSINESS As far as the real estate business... we are doing pretty good there, too! Our small group of hard working professionals has achieved incredibly strong results for our clients. For example, our office has sold more new development housing in Summerland than all other Summerland offices combined. And this year alone, our office is responsible for 50% of the highest price MLS sales in Summerland!
THANK YOU Ultimately, this message, though, needs to be about saying thank you. To our clients, our coworkers, our families, our friends and our administration staff, especially Heidi who keeps it all humming. Thank you!
WHAT’S NEXT Are we ever excited about what’s next! The RE/MAX Brand is the best known name IN THE WORLD for Real Estate (never mind Edmonton and Calgary!) Our marketing technology is exploding with online attention! Our repeat and referral clients continue to build the network across Western Canada. Our investment in new window boards is the talk of Main Street, attracting strollers interested in owning in Summerland.
THANK YOU, THANK YOU Thank you also to Tammy Antrobus, Kirk Roberge, Mike Stohler, Kirk Chamberlain and our newest Realtor, Lisa Knight... thank you for working to help make this office such a productive, professional hard working place to own and operate! Give any of us a call, any time, we love what we do, and it shows!

Film crews were in Summerland last week to shoot scenes for Stanley Cup Odyssey.
Film a tribute to game Continued from Page 1
He graduated from Pen High and went on to play single A pro in Chicago before a shoulder injury took his hockey dream away from him. Mann then turned back to his second love, acting, and landed a part in Stanley Cup Odyssey. “It’s awesome,” he said of being cast. “When you grow up playing hockey you want
to get in the Hall of Fame and win the Stanley Cup. I never could playing hockey, but now I get to act like I do and it’s going to be shown at the Hall of Fame. It’s pretty cool.” He joined a list of hockey players from all over western Canada that come from the junior A, AHL and WHL ranks. Penticton Vees captain Troy Stecher is getting his first
break as an actor. He was casted to the film as a late addition. Stecher decided to spend his summer in Penticton to train for the upcoming season and was in the right place at the right time to earn his spot in the Hall of Fame. The Vees captain said in the film his team wins and he assists on the winning goal.
