Transit service closer by John Arendt

A scheduled transit service for Summerland may soon be a reality. Mayor Janice Perrino said she is “cautiously optimistic” about a regular bus service after meeting with B.C. Transit officials last week at the Union of B.C. Municipalities convention.

“They know Summerland is caught in a really bad position,” Perrino said. “We don’t have consistent service back and forth to Penticton or to the north.” A rudimentary service to Penticton is in place Monday to Friday, but the hours of operation make

it unworkable for anyone who needs to commute to Penticton for school or work. She said the bus need Janice not be large, Perrino but a reliable and workable service is a

necessity. While discussions about a transit service have taken place in the past, Perrino said this time the meeting was much more positive. “We really felt heard for the first time,” she said. “We think this could be a reality in a year’s time.”

For years, Summerland municipal officials have been asking the province to provide a service to Penticton. Earlier, a service had been promised but did not come through. At present, Summerland has bus shelters and pullouts in place, in anticipation of the service.

John Arendt Summerland Review

Sally Webster and Kinga Kotulska, nine years old, set out fresh fruit and vegetables at the Market Bistro at Holy Child Catholic Church on Saturday. The sale also featured baked goods and flowers for sale.

Library board to decide on site by John Arendt While the Wharton Street development has space for a new and larger library branch, the Okanagan Regional Library board has yet to make a decision on whether to move into the facility. Lesley Dieno, executive director of the Okanagan Regional Library, said a board decision is expected in November or February. For close to a decade,

the library board has been discussing and planning for a larger space for the Summerland branch. “We started putting money aside in 2003, so we’ve been at it for nine years,” Dieno said. “We’ve been through quite a few plans for a new library in Summerland.” At present, the library branch, at 316 square metres, is 45 per cent of the size needed to serve Summerland’s population.

According to the latest census figures, the Summerland library served a population of 15,050 people, up from 14,310 in the 2006 census. These population figures include areas beyond Summerland’s municipal boundaries. Dieno said the library branch is now the most crowded of the 29 branches in the library system. “Every year, it becomes more and more difficult

for the staff,” she said. The existing building, on Wharton Street, was opened in 1981, a decade before the library had standards governing the size of branches. When the branch was built, municipalities decided on the sizes of their library branches. “When they built that branch, they had the best intentions in the world,” Dieno said. The existing building has two levels, but the

lower level is used for meeting spaces, not for the library. Dieno said the Okanagan Regional Library will not consider going to a two-storey library unless the building is at least 1,858 square metres. The library has the option of constructing or leasing a building. The Okanagan Regional Library serves more than 360,000 people over 59,600 square kilometres.

Funding requested for hospital Members of Summerland’s municipal council would like the province to help fund a hospital expansion in Penticton.

Mayor Janice Perrino said Summerland officials met with the provincial health minister at the Union of B.C. Muni-

cipalities convention last week. Perrino said the existing hospital was build 60 years ago to serve a population of

10,500. It now serves more than 90,000 people. “We are grossly undersized,” she said. “We are running over

capacity on a regular basis. We need an expansion.” The expansion project has an estimated cost of $300

million. The Regional District of Okanagan Similkameen has agreed to pay 40 per cent of the cost,

or $120 million and the South Okanagan Similkameen Medical Foundation has agreed to raise $20 million.

POLICE REPORT Passed out on park bench Police picked up an intoxicated man the afternoon of Sept. 27 and kept him in jail until he sobered up. They had received a report of an intoxicated man walking his bike and found him passed out on a park bench.

Caught at checkpoint A driver was given a 90-day driving prohibition and had his vehicle impounded for 30 days after failing a roadside screening for alcohol. He was stopped at an RCMP drinkingdriving checkpoint the evening of Sept. 29,

Intersection collision Two vehicles collided while one was trying to make a turn at the intersection of Wharton Street and North Victoria Road. The accident was reported the afternoon of Sept. 27.

Accident aftermath Summerland firefighters examine the damage following a three-vehicle accident on Highway 97 at Prairie Valley Road on Sunday evening. Four people were taken to hospital for non-life threatening injuries.

Four injured in highway collision Four people were taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries following a three-vehicle crash on Highway 97 on Sunday evening. The collision occurred just before 7 p.m. A 1997 Fleetwood motorhome, traveling south on Highway 97, was unable to stop at the intersection of Prairie Valley Road. The motorhome rear-ended a 2005 Chevrolet Cavalier, which then struck a third vehicle, a 2005 Honda Accord from

Alberta. The Honda went into the ditch. The motorohome and the Cavalier caught fire. Summerland firefighters extinguished the fire. Police say the driver of the motorhome and his wife were relocating to the South Okanagan and had all their possessions in the motorhome. George Pugh of the Summerland Fire Department said 10 firefighters and two engines were sent to the accident.

Health Matters Spring pollens are typically thought of as seasonal allergies, but autumn can present issues for the allergy-prone too. At this time of year, plants are pollinating (ragweed is most notorious), molds emit spores and furnaces circulate allergens around the home. Management: avoid the outdoors between 10 am & 4 pm, shower in the evening to remove allergens from your body and clean your furnace filters. A study in the July issue of Clinical Pediatrics is illustrating some interesting data. It turns out that urban kids develop food allergies at up to twice the rate of rural kids! Similar trends have been noted for related conditions, such as asthma. Efforts will now be directed to trying to figure out what environmental issues are specifically resulting in these differences. Research out of Australia is pointing to the possibility of a new drug to add to the arsenal for treating asthma – a drug currently used to treat rheumatoid arthritis. Apparently, some asthmatic patients have 2 gene variants which result in the release of cytokines that stimulate an immune response and inflammation. There is hope that the drug, tocilizumab, used in the study may have a future in asthma treatment. In the fall there tends to be a spike in asthma. Many think that kids sharing colds which trigger respiratory symptoms is the cause, but it is actually more complicated. Plus, as a recent study found, more than half of asthmatics do not have their asthma under control to begin with! Most patients underperceive their symptoms and don’t respond to changes quickly enough to avert problems. Anyone diagnosed with asthma should have an “asthma action plan” and a review of their medications and techniques. Talk to your physician and pharmacist to gain optimal control of your asthma.

While traffic was being rerouted because of a three-vehicle collision and fire Sunday evening on Highway 97, another driver was caught driving after drinking. A police officer on traffic control approached a vehicle to give detour instructions at Walters Road. When the suspect failed a roadside screening test he was given a 90-day driving prohibition and had the vehicle he was driving impounded for 30 days.

our pick

Bringing in the bus After years of waiting, a regularly scheduled transit system could soon be a reality for Summerland. The service, which could be in place within a year, is badly needed as a link between Summerland and Penticton. Considering the number of Summerlanders who work in Penticton and the number of Penticton residents who work in Summerland, a transit service would add some convenience. For those who want to go into Penticton for a movie or a special event, the service would provide a badly needed link. Likewise, when Summerland holds a festival, concert or play, transportation from Penticton would make a lot of sense. Furthermore, there are services and specialized businesses available in Penticton but not in Summerland. At present, getting to Penticton involves a drive of around 20 kilometres. It is not that much for those who drive, but it is a significant obstacle for youths who do not yet have their licenses and for those who, for any number of reasons, are not able or willing to drive. The need for a bus service should be apparent. Making the service a reality will present its own challenges. Without regular runs throughout the day and on the weekend, the service could quickly prove impractical for many potential users. At the same time, the costs of providing the service must be considered. A transit service is not cheap and the costs increase the more frequently the bus runs. It is important to come up with a schedule which will allow for a transit service which is both affordable and workable. Unless the service can work with the schedules of potential transit users, it will not be seen as a viable transportation alternative.

In the past few weeks, we have had several significant fires. The most recent was a vehicle fire on Sunday night, but others have included wildfires and a house fire. In all cases, firefighters were at the scene quickly to control the fires. Next week is Fire Prevention Week. At this time, it is fitting to thank our firefighters for the important service they provide.

Leaders’ spin contest ends in tie VICTORIA – The Union of B.C. Municipalities convention is the political event of the year for B.C. party leaders, especially heading into a provincial election. Up first was NDP leader Adrian Dix, who drew a large crowd of local politicians last week for the traditional early-morning spot that follows a long evening of Tom Fletcher receptions. In contrast to his debut last year, a typical litany of political attacks on the B.C. Liberals, Dix declared he would take the high road. And perhaps mindful of Carole James’ downfall after her content-free speech to the 2010 UBCM convention, Dix set out policies. He told delegates an NDP government would restore local authority over Metro Vancouver transit (no more toothless “mayor’s council”) and mountain resorts (no more Jumbo ski resort permits issued over local objections). Dix would also let communities decide if they want publicprivate partnerships for large construction projects. Then Dix accused the B.C. Liberals of cutting forest inventory spending by 77 per cent over the last decade, meaning decisions like rebuilding the Burns Lake mill are being made “in the dark” for the first time in a century. That’s a damning charge,

so I checked it against forest ministry budget records. As with all government programs, accounting changes can give a misleading appearance of large cuts or increases from year to year. And indeed forest inventory spending has bounced around during the B.C. Liberal term. The budget for forest inventory staffing and operation was about $8 million in 2001-02, rising as high as $15 million and falling to a low of $5.1 million

moved up. Four-laning of the last narrow stretches of the Trans-Canada Highway east of Kamloops will continue over 10 years. This is a federal-provincial project that will eventually be finished regardless of who is governing in Victoria or Ottawa. It includes some of the most staggeringly expensive road building in Canada, in the Kicking Horse Pass, a short section that could require two tunnels and up to 12 more bridges.

As with all government programs, accounting changes can give a misleading appearance of large cuts or increases from year to year. in recession-hit 2009-10. The estimate for the current fiscal year is $9.7 million, an increase to try to catch up with the pine beetle disaster. Crown forest inventory has indeed fallen behind due to rapid shifts caused by unprecedented insect and fire damage. But has spending been slashed as Dix claims? No. It has increased. Next up was Premier Christy Clark, in full campaign mode. In the Gordon Campbell tradition, she brought the goodies out in her speech to close the convention. More than $200 million has been scraped together to “accelerate” capital projects at schools, hospitals and other facilities across the province. These projects were already on the books, but they’ve been moved up for obvious political purposes. Or at least the announcements will be

Clark also announced a long-range plan to replace the George Massey tunnel under the Fraser River. It will likely be a bridge, because the tunnel is a bottleneck not only for Highway 99, but also for large ships going up-river. This is another project that will proceed eventually, and there is no specific financial commitment yet. I haven’t found any outright false claims in Clark’s presentation, just the kind of creative accounting and blacktop politics familiar to B.C. voters. As always, I’m pleased to hear from people with specific corrections. For now, call it a tie. Neither speech represents a proud moment for our provincial leadership.

bad apples We should not need to remind motorists to make sure they are sober before getting behind the wheel, but the problem of impaired driving continues. Those who are caught driving while impaired can have their vehicles impounded and face driving prohibitions. For those who manage to avoid the checkpoints while impaired, drunk driving can have much more serious and sometimes fatal consequences.

Rifle range part of our history Dear Editor: We would like to address the letter of Sept. 20 titled “Noise of shooting continues into night,” submitted by Evelyn von Almassy. The Wildhorse rifle range in Garnett Valley has been in continuous use since 1909. The Summerland Sportsmen’s Associa-

tion, a volunteer run, not for profit organization, has maintained the lease on this property for the benefit of its members for over 100 years. The rifle range became fully certified in 2001 and has to adhere to strict regulations and pass regular inspections performed by the Provincial Firearms

Officer. We have members of the Association who belong to the RCMP, Ministry of Environment/Conservation officers, as well as recreational target shooters and hunters. This range was even used for military purposes during World War II. Although it is unfortunate that

someone broke the rule of no shooting after dusk, one or two individuals do not represent the members of this club as a whole. Signs are posted on the property with the rules and regulations of the range which include no shooting after dusk. If there is an issue regarding this, the

RCMP should be contacted and those individuals will be reprimanded. The existence of this range prevents dangerous, nonsanctioned target practice ranges in our surrounding wilderness. Without this facility, target shooters would be forced to use unregulated, unsupervised tar-

get areas. Not only is this hazardous to people and animals but is environmentally harmful. The Wildhorse Mountain Ranch owners were fully aware (or should have been through due diligence) of the existence of this range when they purchased the property. This is simply a matter of

Summerland has always been home to talented artists and craftspeople. In the 1920s, Summerland’s artisans established the Art League, operating out of the Log Cabin at the bottom of Peach Orchard. In this photo Doris Cordy, Marian Cartwright, Mrs. Croil and Mrs. Eckersley are working in the pottery studio at the Cabin, creating unique pieces which became very popular.

buyer beware. As for the statement of Ms. von Almassy, “I don’t know how many tourists if any use the Summerland Rifle Range,” we believe that the residents of Summerland have a right to recreate in their own backyard. Not every piece of the Okanagan is reserved for tourist activity. It is unfortunate not only that a tourist operation was opened next to a rifle range, but that their website advertises enjoying “the calm of nature”. As a guest of the ranch they should be directing their displeasure towards the owners of the bed and breakfast for not making it known they are located next to a certified rifle range, and not towards the members of Summerland Sportsmen’s Association, an active club in the community raising funds for such projects as the deer fence along Highway 97, fish habitat enhancement at Summerland Rotary Pier, annual Summerland Secondary School bursary, hosting an annual Introduction to Firearms Safety for the local Scouts and youth, and most recently a wetlands preservation project at Ritchie Lake and many others.

Foster parents provide a valuable service Dear Editor: October is once again a time to celebrate and appreciate the unique and extremely valuable role that foster parents in the Okanagan fulfill. I say fulfill because although

it is considered a job and comes with an extended list of expectations, regulations and limitations they also in so many ways reap the rewards of a job well done. Many foster parents tell me how

much they love and enjoy children and find what they do as very fulfilling. As the Foster Parent Coordinator of the South Okanagan I have the privilege of offering them support through the Oka-

nagan Foster Parents Association. I enjoy my work providing this support and training opportunities to help them in their day to day experiences with children of all ages and backgrounds.

Many come into care needing temporary help for the family in crisis and others go on to longer term care or adoption. Foster parents offer love and acceptance and are particularly aware of their foster

child’s attachment needs and the trauma that can result from separation. If you personally know a foster parent, give them the kudos they deserve. We have a valuable resource which is

often unrecognized. Thank you to each one of you who serve and care for the children and youth of our communities. Betty Bogyo Foster Parent Coordinator Penticton

Rates should reward conservation Dear Editor: I am a retired teacher, living alone in a 20-unit condo development in downtown Summerland. I’ve enjoyed living in this area for the past 32 years. I actively recycle and have encouraged my neighbours to compost kitchen and garden waste in a communal compost-

er. The rich soil is dug back into our flower and vegetable gardens. I use a special shower head that infuses air into the water flow to increase pressure without increasing water. I use a dual/low flush toilet. I only use my dishwasher for large dinner parties. I am

extremely conscientious in my efforts to reduce water use. My monthly water use was 2.72 cubic metres from June 16 to July 15. From July 16 to Aug. 15 it was 3.98 cubic metres. This is well below the base rate of 20 cubic metres. However, I will be charged the same as a person using 20 cubic metres.

Water is a precious resource. It should be handled wisely. Incentives for frugal water usage should be in place. I understand the cost of the infrastructure has to be met. The pumping stations, the purification plant and other maintenance fees are ongoing. If the cost per cubic metre

are no more secrets. Sharia is nothing more than a religious moral code and just because Muslims commit to serve their God does not obligate anybody else to do the same. It is everybody’s basic human right to choose whether or not they want to believe in a God. Fighting the Infidel is the wrong battle. Instead, they need to declare war on poverty, separate from their tyrannical culture of hate and suppression, and embrace a future that includes education and employment. Andy Thomsen Summerland

Dear Editor: I disagree with the belief that tourist visits were down in July due to poor weather conditions. In fact the weather records prove otherwise. It is true we had a cool rainy spring, stretching into the first few days of July. On July third it actually hailed! On the fourth of July though the day dawned sunny, and by the weekend of the seventh and eighth the temperature was up to 30 degrees, and the beaches were full.

After that, other than a few cloudy days, accompanied by some thunder storms, July was predominantly sunny, hot and dry. It is a shame that the tourists chose not to come to the Okanagan this July, because as a beach lover I must say this was one of the best summers we’ve had in a long time! If tourist traffic was down, I think we have to look for other possible reasons as to why this was. Carla McLeod Summerland

Locomotive centennial marked There will be bells and whistles and lots of steam when the Kettle Valley Steam Railway holds its 100th birthday celebration for Engine 3716 on Thanksgiving weekend. Two train rides, a ceremony at noon and a 1912 theme lunch will all be part of the party on Saturday, Oct. 6 at Prairie Valley Station in Summerland. Railway manager Ron Restrick is looking forward to the event which will mark this milestone. “The 3716 is one of Canada’s most colourful steam locomotives — and the only CPR 2-8-0 consolidation N2b steam locomotive still working today,” says Restrick. The 3716 was built for the Canadian Pacific Railway in November of 1912 at Montreal Locomotive Works. The locomotive made her inaugural

Title Insurance

If you haven't purchased real property lately, then you probably have never heard of Title Insurance. Title Insurance was created in the United States to protect Purchasers and Lenders from any unforseen charges, errors or defects in the title when purchasing property. Its use spread to Eastern Canada in the last few years and is now available in British Columbia. In British Columbia our Land Title system is far more reliable than other jurisdictions however, even here Title Insurance has its place. Title Insurance has become a less expensive alternative to survey certificates and historical searches of individual titles. Most, if not all, financial institutions will now require that you purchase Title Insurance when applying for a mortgage. Anyone who is purchasing property should ask their lawyer about Title Insurance.

an accumulated bank of material, his wife takes notes from the back of the hall to keep track of what he has used in front of his audiences. He says he is performing better than ever. “I’m feeling at the top of my form. I am at the point where I am writing stuff in front of my audience.” His shows feature folk music. He started his career in 1974 as a folksinger, performing music from the unbroken Newfoundland tradition rather than re-discovered folk music. Canadian-born Elliott is a humourist, folksinger and playwright who has performed throughout Canada, the United States and Australia. He will appear in a one-man concert at Centre Stage Theatre Sunday at 8 p.m. Tickets are available at Martin’s Flowers (250-494-5432) and The Dragon’s Den (250-492-3011).

Classic cars tour Touring the countryside in a chauffeured classic convertible and visiting Summerland wineries is a perfect way to spend a sunny Okanagan autumn day. Here about 50 spouses of people attending the B.C. Road Builders Fall Conference in Kelowna are boarding the 1950s and 1960s convertibles supplied by Nixdorf Classic Cars. The visitors travelled by bus to Summerland to make rounds of the wineries, stopping for lunch at the Sonoran Estate Winery where a bus picked them up to return to the convention hotel. Jim Kyluik, manager of Nixdorf Classic Cars, says the classic car wine tours are an attraction unique to Summerland.

Ministers named at United Church David Sparks and Kathy McMillan will be in a team ministry at Summerland United Church until a new minister arrives in 2013. Sparks has been a minister in the United Church of Canada for more than 30 years, most of that time in Thunder Bay, Ont. His partner, Kathy, who has a nursing

background, spent five years as a pastoral visitor at St. Paul’s Church there. Sparks is the author of six books in the Prayers to Share series, published by Wood Lake Books of Winfield, B.C. The latest is out this fall. Both are looking forward to the renewed challenge of leading worship and

pastoral ministry in Summerland, which is their home. “We have a short Sunday message that is relevant to the world of today and some hymns and songs that get people’s feet tapping to the music,” Sparks said. “I’m here for those who are sick, lonely or simply need someone

to talk to,” McMillan said. One area of special interest for them is participating in the new children’s program which began this fall, led by Linnea Good and Anne Vanherwaarden. Singing, crafts and Bible stories have an increasing number of children participating.

B.C. kids get â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;rabbit readyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; for fires The Canadian Association of Fire Chiefs, along with fire departments and primary and preschool teachers across the country,

have introduced a new tool to help kids and families be better prepared in case of fire: cute and fuzzy bunny rabbits. Have Two Ways

Out is this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s theme for Fire Prevention Week, which runs Oct. 7 to 13. The theme builds on rabbitsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; instinct to always have at least

two exits from their underground homes leading to safety. Fire Chief Stephen Gamble, president of the CAFC, says families who cre-

ate and practise an escape plan together, with two ways out of every room if possible, have a better chance of escaping during a real fire

Only a working smoke alarm can save your life! FIRE PREVENTION WEEK OCT. 7-14

Smoke alarms save lives â&#x20AC;&#x153;Fall backâ&#x20AC;? to smart home safety As most Canadians turn back the clocks on November 4, here are some timely smoke and carbon monoxide (CO) safety tips: s 7HEN YOU change your clocks, test your smoke arlam. s 9OU HAVE less than three minutes to escape a ďŹ re. So when smoke alarms sound, everyone must know what to do and where to go. Having and practising an escape plan is essential. s )NSTALL ONE SMOKE ALARM on every storey and outside BEDROOMS )NSTALL INSIDE bedrooms if you sleep with doors closed. s %NSURE ALL SMOKE ALARMS are fully powered. Never take out batteries or remove an alarm from ceiling due to a false alarm. s )F YOUR HOME HAS ANY fuel-burning devices such as a gas furnace, gas water heater, gas appliances, or an attached garage or carport, install at least one CSAapproved carbon monoxide outside all sleeping areas. One per storey is recommended.

s 2EPLACE SMOKE ALARMS EVery 10 years, and CO alarms every 7-10 years (depending on manufacturer) whether battery operated or hardwired into your homeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s electrical system. Carbon monoxide is colourless, odourless and tasteless. So without a CO alarm, humans cannot detect its presence. Despite the average home having several potential sources of the deadly gas, studies show that nearly 60 per cent of Canadians have not INSTALLED A #/ ALARM )N ADdition to being impossible to detect, CO also has another nefarious trait. Symptoms of carbon monoxide exposure mimic the ďŹ&#x201A;u, without the FEVER )T IS ROUTINELY RESPONsible for thousands of clinic and hospital visits each year, and is commonly misdiagnosed. Prolonged or extreme exposure causes nausea, dizziness, confusion, the loss of physical mobility, brain damage and ultimately, death. More home safety resources can be found on the www. safeathome.ca web site.

Analysis was undertaken on almost 50,000 ďŹ res that occurred in Alberta, British Columbia, and Ontario over a 5-year period involving 663 fatalities. The ďŹ ndings demonstrated that the death rate per 1,000 ďŹ res in the absence of a present, functioning smoke alarm was 74% greater than when a functioning smoke alarm was present.

Thanksgiving turkey ďŹ res cause for concern at 9-1-1 centre % #OMM S lRE DISPATCH TEAM IS warning families to be mindful of their turkey cooking during Thanksgiving weekend. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A turkey isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t something you typically see on a list of household ďŹ re hazards, but we get 9-1-1 calls about ovens going up in ďŹ&#x201A;ames all the time,â&#x20AC;? says Corey +ELSO % #OMM lRE DISPATCHER â&#x20AC;&#x153;The result can be devastating if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not careful every time you have something cooking for an extended period of time.â&#x20AC;?

% #OMM HAS RECEIVED SOME ODD calls to 9-1-1 before â&#x20AC;&#x201C; including someone wanting to know how long to cook a turkey â&#x20AC;&#x201C; but a turkey ďŹ re is no joke. )N FACT IT IS A LEADING cause of spikes in 9-1-1 calls over the holidays. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A ďŹ&#x201A;ame in your oven can start easily and escalate quickly,â&#x20AC;? says Kelso. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Oil drippings through a thin tinfoil turkey pan or bits of leftover food residue inside your oven are extremely ďŹ&#x201A;ammable in a high temperature setting.â&#x20AC;?

Many fatal ďŹ res start at night )NVESTIGATIONS into home ďŹ re deaths very often ďŹ nd that a smoke alarm did not sound. )T MAY HAVE been disconnected or not in working order. The batteries may have been dead, or someone may have taken them out. Smoke alone wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t necessarILY WAKE YOU UP )N FACT THE fumes could put you into an even deeper sleep. Often, victims never wake up. Se-

niors will often need assistance from family members to put safety measures into place. As well, family members are in the best position to reinforce the precautions necessary to help their loved ones prevent or respond to a ďŹ re. Focus on these six priorities to help aging family members protect themselves against ďŹ re in the home.

N INSTALL smoke alarms inside every bedroom, outside each sleeping area and on every level of the home, including the basement. N Larger homes may need ADDITIONAL smoke alarms to provide enough protection. N For the best protection, INTERCONNECT all smoke alarms so when one sounds they all sound. N An IONIZATION smoke alarm is generally more responsive to ďŹ&#x201A;aming ďŹ res and a PHOTOELECTRIC smoke alarm is generally more responsive to smoldering ďŹ res. For the best protection, both types of alarms or combination ionization and photoelectric alarms (also known as dual sensor alarms) are recommended. N Smoke alarms should be INSTALLED away from the kitchen to prevent false alarms. Generally, they should be at least 10 feet (3 meters) from a cooking appliance. N REPLACE all smoke alarms when they are 10 years old.

emergency. â&#x20AC;&#x153;An escape plan helps families respond more quickly and calmly when faced with a real fire situation,â&#x20AC;? Gamble said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When a smoke alarm sounds, everyone needs to know what to do and where to go. Planning two ways out of each room, ahead of time, greatly increases your chances of getting out without injury.â&#x20AC;? Among the Have Two Ways Out activities will be a week of home fire escape lessons taught to young children by primary and preschool teachers, followed by home-work assignments encouraging families to prepare and practise an escape plan. The effort extends through the entire month of October featuring a special web site www. safeathome.ca/twowaysout where families can print out a free home escape plan template. They can also watch for it in the Have Two Ways Out homework package which the CAFC designed to help parents, teachers and kids work hand in hand. Families who register the completion of their plan on line are rewarded with a Have Two Ways Out certificate and the chance to win more

than $10,000 in prizes. Teachers can also register their classrooms. Carol Heller, a home fire safety specialist with Kidde Canada, said two more factors are important for families to consider to avoid fire tragedy. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If a false alarm has caused you to take the batteries out of your smoke alarm, or remove it from the ceiling, it wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be there when you need it most,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So when your kids come home from school excited to create an escape plan, also make sure smoke alarms are installed and working on every storey of your home.â&#x20AC;? Heller adds, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Remember that smoke alarms wear out. Replace them every 10 years whether they are battery operated or hardwired into your homeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s electrical system.â&#x20AC;? Fire departments play a major part in the safety campaignâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s success, building on their established school programs of working hand-inhand with youngsters and educators. A free home escape plan template and more family fire safety tips can be found online at the campaign website www. safeathome.ca/twowaysout.

Choosing a smoke alarm Which smoke alarm is best for reducing false alarms? Smoke alarms are not all the same. By choosing the correct technology you can keep your family safe and reduce those annoying false alarms when you cook or shower. Photoelectric smoke alarms are a good choice near kitchens or in areas adjacent to bathrooms, say fire safety experts. Their sensors are best at detecting slow smouldering fires â&#x20AC;&#x201D; which means

you will have fewer false alarms caused by burnt toast or shower steam. Ionization smoke alarms are good for general living areas, as their sensors are best at detecting fast-flaming fires. Fire departments say that having both types of alarms installed in your home, or a combination with both types of sensors, provides the best protection.

Karate champ wins prize for youth achievements 15th Credit Union Cup For the 15th annual Credit Union Cup Tournament, the weather and tennis were good with B event playoffs going late into the afternoon on Sept. 16. Winners of the A event were mother/ daughter team of Chris and Dawn Eliassen from United States. Finishing second in the round robin were Dawna DenOtter and Lyse Tremblay from Kelowna. The B event had a crossover from two flights. In the first semi-final, Kathy Maple and Joani Roller from U.S. lost a 10-game pro-set to locals Linda Elia and Patti Lukiv. In the second semi-final, locals Janice Cunsolo and Debbie James defeated Darlene Dagen and Lea Poirer from Kamloops but lost in the final to Patti Lukiv and Linda Elia 6-2, 6-4.

Summerland’s Claire Boothe was recently honoured at the B.C. Sports Hall of Fame Gala Event Evening at the Vancouver Convention Centre. At a special reception directly prior to attending the Banquet of Champions, Boothe was presented with the Jack Farley Youth Sports Achievement award. The $2,000 scholarships are awarded to one outstanding male and one outstanding female amateur athlete graduating from a B.C. secondary school. Awarded for demonstrating high athletic ability, leadership, community service and a high academic standing, these students excel in a particular sport and exemplify the values, commitment and contribution to the community held by Jack Farley, an honoured member of the BC Sports Hall of Fame and Museum. Claire has trained

Bantams win The Summerland Jets Bantam House team beat the Westside 2 Bantams in a 5-3 game. Both teams played well and provided lots of excitement for spectators.

with the Ta n e d a Karate Dojo for 11 years. Winning more than 80 career Claire karate Boothe medals, including three gold and four silver world championship medals, Boothe is also an eight-time provincial champion. She recently brought home the 2012 Karate Canada Nationals gold medal for her age and weight category, thereby earning a spot on Team Canada. In August, she represented Canada at the Junior PanAmerican Karate Championships in

Cancun, Mexico. In addition to her own training, she also found time to instruct children’s karate classes, act as a certified Karate B.C. regional judge, coach dojo members at local, zone and provincial levels, co-captain the Summerland Secondary School volleyball team from Grades 10 to 12 and coach volleyball at Summerland Middle School. Other community service activities include Summerland Secondary School Leadership projects from 2009-2012, the Get Active Marathon civic action project, Breakfast Club fundraising, and participating in the Me-toWe Club as a student advocate.

The B.C. Sports Hall of Fame logo includes the words, “Honouring the Past. Inspiring the Future.” A highlight of the evening was when Boothe had the opportunity to sit down and talk with 92-year-old inductee Barbara Howard. In 1938, at the age

of 17, Howard represented Canada at the 1938 British Empire Games in Sydney, Australia. The two athletes sat together and shared their appreciation and respect for one another. In doing so, they were honouring the past and inspiring the future.

Thursday, October 4, 2012 Summerland Review

Clubs build facilities As I’ve mentioned previously our service clubs here in Summerland are truly amazing. This was shown earlier this year with the opening of the new netted playground at Dale Meadows and the great support of the Summerland Rotary Club and the Summerland Kinsmen Club. Well it continued last week with the opening of the new Lions Club playground at Powell Beach. The Summerland Lions Club, even with a declining membership contributed over $20,000 to have the playground built. Under presidents John Edwards and Gladys Schmidt, they were the driving force to have the playground become a reality. At the official opening on Tuesday, Sept. 19 it was great

to see the Lions Club members both old and new mixing with the children on the new playground. Over the years the Lions Club have been involved in many community projects including the many partnerships with Parks and Recreation. Projects have included the playground at Powell Beach, as well as the softball field at Powell Beach Park, a project that Orlie Johnston spearheaded. The Lions were also heavily involved in the building of the Youth Centre with Harold Simpson (who the Youth Centre is named after) and Alex Grimmer (now 96 years of age), two of the driving forces. I met Alex in 1990 and we have not only worked on a variety of projects together we have become good friends.

LEISURE TIMES

Dale MacDonald Other major projects included the Water Spray Park built in 2000 and the Gazebo at Peach Orchard Beach built in 2008. This was in addition to a variety of smaller projects along the way. Presidents or members I have worked with were the colorful Walter Murby, ticket seller supreme Gordon Clancy and always working and amazing, Cliff White. As well as Gladys

and Jack Wong, Ken Davy, Jack Saunders, Lionel Coleman and one of their charter members from the 1980s, Dick Hoogenberg. I’m sure there are many members I have not mentioned but this definitely is an organization that cares about Summerland and for years has been a large part of our community. Just a reminder for everyone to drop by the Aquatic Centre and get your tickets for the October 19 Pro-D Day Skate and Swim and the up and coming Halloween Haunt on Oct. 27. Dale MacDonald has been Summerland’s Director of Parks and Recreation for the last 22 years and in his sporting past has won provincial championships in four different sports.

Run helps feed valley The inaugural Steve King 100km Classic held on Sept. 15 attracted more than just the toughest of runners, it also attracted $1,485 for its charity partner, Feed the Valley - Valley First’s signature hunger-fighting program. The 100-kilometre ultra-run and relay, which winds its way from Princeton to Summerland, drew in a small but hardy number of competitors. The event raised a total of $1,485, much of it coming from the Penticton Pounders Women’s Team led by Valley First’s Deb Dunham. While the event is still in its infancy, race organizers are hoping to build on the inaugural staging to make next year’s Classic even bigger and better. Seen left to right are Dunham, Steve Brown of Peach City Runners and Adventure Sports, and Ryan Mahaffy of Valley First.

Steam lose two, win one The Summerland Steam played to two losses and one win in recent Junior B hockey action. On Sept. 25, the team hosted the Osoyoos Coyotes, playing to a 4-3 overtime loss. The Steam began the game with a goal by Kendell Wilson at 12:53. Taylor Jordan had the assist. At 3:59 in the first period, Jordan Boultbee scored a short-handed goal with the assist by Nelson Hurry. Boultbee then scored at 12:13 in the third period, with assists by Daniel Kerr and Ryland Sideroff, to bring the Steam to a three-goal lead. Osoyoos responded in the third period with three goals, the last with just 10 seconds remaining. This forced the game into overtime where

Osoyoos added the winning goal. On Saturday, the Steam hosted the Revelstoke Grizzlies, losing 4-3. After a goal by Revelstoke, Dylan Burton of the Steam scored on a power play at 7:37, assisted by Derek Grimm and Doug Chadwick. In the second period, Grimm scored on a power play at 10:55, with assists by Steve Semenoff and Josh DaCosta. In the third period, Revelstoke brought the game to a tie with a power play goal, but Grimm responded with a power play goal at 14:34. Assists were by Doug Chadwick and Brett Harris. The Grizzlies ended the game with two goals late in the period for the win. On Sunday,

the Steam travelled to Kelowna to defeat the Chiefs 3-2. In the first period, Burton scored on a power play at 12:50 with assists by Easton Bodeux and Brett Harris. In the second period, Semenoff scored on a power play at 18:09, with assists by Chadwick and Bodeux. Burton then scored for the Steam at 16:59, with assists by Grimm and DaCosta. Despite a Kelowna goal late in the second period and a third period goal, the Steam retained the win. The Steam have three wins, three losses and one overtime loss so far this season. The next action for the Steam is on Friday when the team hosts the Penticton Lakers. Game time is 7:30 p.m.

Midgets win two on road The Gametime Sports Midget Rep Jets opened their season with two road wins. On Sept 29 they traveled to Westside and came away with a 5-2 victory. The Jets opened the scoring on a goal by Jordy Johnson assisted by Jacob Lusted and Chad Lemke. Westside evened it up late in the first. The Jets restored their lead early in the second when Linden Gove scored on the power play, assisted by Johnson. Then Lust-

ed scored, assisted by Johnson to make it 3-1. Westside scored again but Lusted scored again with less than a minute left in the second to take a 4-2 lead into the third. Lusted completed his hat trick part way through the third assisted by Johnson to seal the victory. On Sept 30 the Jets traveled to Merritt. They jumped out to an early lead on two goals by Brandon Gerlach, assisted by Dakota Deane, Liam Mcluskey, Chad

Lemke and Joel Tremblay. In the second Mcluskey found the back of the net to make it 3-0, assisted by Deane. Then the Jets got into trouble and let Merritt back into the game early in the third, giving up two quick goals. Mcluskey restored a two goal lead assisted by Deane, but then Merritt scored twice more to tie it at 4. Then with under 15 seconds left Johnson stole the puck and scored to earn the victory by a score of 5-4.
