Wifi hotspot launched by John Arendt

Power outage

WWW.SUMMERLANDREVIEW.COM

Travellers will be able to access the Internet at the tourist information kiosk on Highway 97 in Trout Creek as the Summerland Chamber of Economic Development and Tourism has launched the province’s first wifi hotspot. The service was opened

on Monday morning, at the start of Small Business Week in B.C. The hotspot — the first of its kind in the province — was approved by the provincial Ministry of Transportation and supported by the municipality with funding support from Shaw Cable.

“Visitor services are a gateway to the community so by providing this new wifi location, we have the opportunity to showcase our members and draw people off the highway into our inviting downtown,” said chamber president Arlene Fenrich. “This will allow

our visitor traffic a safe, appealing place to pull over, check their emails and find easily accessible member information regarding places to stay, play, eat and shop while in our community.” The first page accessed from the pullout has information from the chamber

on accommodations, restaurants, tourist attractions and businesses in the community. Nick Yeoman of Frostybot Web Design and Brent Petkau of Petkau Infotech spent many volunteer hours setting up and creating the Summerland landing page.

Summerland was without power for more than seven hours Tuesday.

YOUR SMILE Some things are better left unsaid, usually the things we blurt out first.

Scientific research Joe Mazza of Mazza Innovations shows the plant extraction system his company has been developing. Last week, Mazza Innovations received $175,000 in funding through the federal government.

Funding given for plant technology by John Arendt A Summerland technology company has developed a new technology to extract nutrients from fruits and vegetables using water instead of chemicals. Joe Mazza of Mazza Innovations said the new business will help in the nutraceuticals market as consumers are looking for food products with health and medical benefits. “One of our interests is

to extract high-value products from the waste streams of the fruit and vegetable processing industries,” Mazza said. “We also want to provide extraction technology to companies that want to avoid the use of expensive and flammable chemical solvents.” Mazza has been working on the concept for the past three years, the last year as a full-time effort. He said the technology

will result in better nutraceuticals. “We are not consuming chemicals our bodies are not used to,” he said. Mazza, a former research scientist at the Summerland Research Centre, said several companies have already expressed interest in the new technology. The federal government has provided an investment of $175,000 for the technology. “This is a great example

of what we are trying to achieve with our investments in innovation and commercialization,” MP Dan Albas said. “Our government is proud to support novel projects like this one which find environmentally-conscious ways to help farmers add value to their crops.” The funding comes through the Agricultural Innovation Program, a $50 million initiative under

Canada’s Economic Action Plan 2011. Gordon Niesch, former Director General, Bioproducts and Bioprocesses with Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, said the funding from the federal government is important in developing technology. He said there is a gap between technological concepts and reality. “Funding like this is critical to bridging that gap,” he said.

Apple variety named A new apple developed in Summerland will make its debut in stores this fall. The apple, which has the trademarked name of Salish, was unveiled at the annual University of B.C. Apple Festival Saturday. The Salish is tangy, juicy and very crisp. It is medium-sized, with a pinkish red blush over a yellow background colour. It has characteristics that appeal not only to consumers, with its high quality appearance, texture and flavour, but also those that Canadian apple growers seek, such as its late harvest date, good storage and shelf life, high yields and good growth habits for high-density orchards. Previously only known as SPA493, the Salish apple was developed and tested by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada scientists, in partnership with the Okanagan Plant Improvement Corporation. Like all AAFC varieties, this new apple was developed using

traditional crosspollination methods. It originated from a cross between Splendour and Gala cultivars made in 1981 at AAFC’s Pacific AgriFood Research Centre in Summerland. “With already 15 orchardists committed to growing the Salish, we look forward to having increased production year after year,” said John Kingsmill, general manager and CEO of PICO. The Salish is named for the Canadian Interior language of Thompson, Okanagan-Colville, and Shuswap.

RCMP broke up a bush party and called the fire department to put out a bonfire on Friday, Oct. 12. Police extend thanks to the young people who stayed around to clean up garbage from the party.

Her world is the Bathtub, an island located in a Louisiana bayou cut off from civilization and industrialization. A stunning debut ﬁlm – equal parts mythology, anthropology and apocalyptic fable, it effortlessly captures the wonder and terror of childhood while blindsiding with imaginative genius. (PG)

Accessing information For travellers in the South Okanagan, the wifi hotspot at the tourist information kiosk in Trout Creek will be an important service. The hotspot, which was launched on Monday morning, is the first of its kind in the province. While the Summerland Chamber of Economic Development and Tourism already has a hotspot in place at the Visitor Information Centre on Highway 97 near the north end of the community, no community has provided such access at a highway pullout. The hotspot provides travellers from the south with a place to stop and get online access. The startup page features information about visitor services and tourism-related businesses and activities in Summerland. For visitors to the community, access to such information is important. Many already travel with a laptop computer, a tablet or another electronic device to allow them access to the Internet. Some will use the hotspot to send a quick message to let friends or relatives know they have arrived in town. Many more will use it to find the immediate information they need as they look for accommodations and restaurants. They will also need to find maps or directional information to get to the Kettle Valley Steam Railway, the hiking trails and the beaches. Anyone who has ever driven around an unfamiliar community in an attempt to find visitor services should appreciate the need for the wifi hotspot and the information which will be made available. While Summerland’s wifi hotspot is the first of its kind in B.C., other communities will likely follow suit. Providing visitors with easy access to the information they need simply makes good sense.

The new Salish apple, introduced in Vancouver on the weekend, is another plant research breakthrough from the Summerland Research Centre. Over the years, many apple varieties have come out of Summerland. Each one represents many years of study and testing. The efforts of the plant research scientists deserve to be recognized.

Fantasies won’t keep ferries afloat VICTORIA – It was a sunny Thanksgiving weekend when I took my first all-transit trip from Victoria to Vancouver for a B.C. Lions football game. Despite all the doomsaying about people shunning ferries because of some media-determined “tipping point” in fares, you wouldn’t have guessed it that weekend. Articulated buses were jammed com- Tom Fletcher ing and going from the Tsawwassen terminal to the Canada Line. Returning to Vancouver Island on Sunday, I was struck by the crowds, and the low cost: SkyTrain, express bus, walk-on passenger fare and express bus to Victoria totalled about $20. This explains the surge in walk-on traffic. BC Ferries issued bulletins advising first that Tsawwassen’s parking lot and then Swartz Bay’s were full. The Tsawwassen First Nation’s shuttle parking next door was overflowing, with cars tucked into every level space. And even with hourly sailings, the major route had plenty of vehicle traffic, with all available vessels running. Now the long, late summer is gone, and the political theatre resumes. Transportation Minister Mary Polak picked up where the retiring Blair Lekstrom left off, reminding people that BC Ferries is going to deal with rising costs primarily by ceasing the practice of running vessels a third full or less.

This comes as “consultation” begins with smaller ferry communities on where and when these sailings will be cut. And it follows the first major price-cap decision by the newly empowered B.C. Ferry Commissioner, Gord Macatee. He now can determine service levels as well as fares, which are permitted to rise about four per cent in each of the next three years. The NDP’s ferry critic, North Coast MLA Garry Coons, has also decided to transition to his government pensions next

to be a fancy cruise ship service instead of giving people basic transportation at an affordable price. That would be terrible if it were true. But those amenities on newer vessels are there because they make money, utilizing staff who have to be on board anyway. As everyone but the NDP seems to grasp, the big costs are fuel, maintenance, and minimum crew levels to meet federal regulations, regardless of passenger revenue. I was reminded on the last busy weekend of the year that

As everyone but the NDP seems to grasp, the big costs are fuel, maintenance, and minimum crew levels to meet federal regulations, regardless of passenger revenue. year. But before he sails away, he has doubled his repertoire of outraged sound bites to two. Along with every coffeeshop know-it-all on the coast, Coons perpetually reminds us that ferries are “part of our highway system.” He remains convinced that this financially illiterate cliché somehow deals with the fact that even a subsidy approaching $200 million this year can’t keep all those boats afloat forever. A family of four on a long driving trip faces similar price increases, when you factor in tolls, insurance, food and other costs beyond the fuel tank. But for some reason the “government” is supposed to provide special relief to those who choose the most inaccessible places to live. Coons’ latest tack is that BC Ferries has lost its way, trying

the new Coastal-class ferries kept vehicle capacity the same while increasing passenger space. This choice anticipated today’s travel reality nearly a decade ago. Good thing somebody was able to understand ferries as a business, as opposed to a welfare program for the reclusive and the rich. BC Ferries has already cut sailings on the TsawwassenDuke point route. As described in an earlier column, this needlessly long run is the biggest boondoggle in BC Ferries history, a Dave Barrett-era payoff to the union that continues today. Changes will now come to other routes that minimize shifts and overtime, rather than inflating them. Tom Fletcher is legislative reporter and columnist for Black Press and BCLocalnews. com. tfletcher@blackpress.ca

culls We understand the reason behind redrawing the federal electoral boundaries but we do not understand the proposal which would put Summerland and Penticton into two different ridings. The two communities have many close ties. Summerland and Penticton already share a school board and the same MLA represents both communities. Many workers live in one community and work in the other. These bonds should be recognized when the federal riding boundaries are drawn.

Time to stop the negative voting Dear Editor: In response to the letter to the editor titled, “Support Liberals in the next provincial election,” I would like to respond as follows: Christy Clark failing, I agree. B.C. Conservatives self-destructing, I agree. NDP and Mr. Dix not the right choice for B.C.,

Film looks at Mormon faith

agreed. Vote Liberal in the next election, you have got to be kidding me. It is really about time people stopped the negative voting in this province. Since when is democracy about voting for the party or candidate you dislike the least? Isn’t it supposed to be about

voting for the candidate who will best represent the interests of his or her constituency? If you do support the Liberals in the next provincial election then be prepared to continue to read real headlines like, “B.C. Place roof to cost $835 million,” followed by “B.C. child poverty rate second

worst in Canada after Manitoba” or B.C. MLAs ring up $15 million in costs and expenses” followed by “B.C. has the worst poverty rate in Canada for 12 consecutive years” or “Barisoff tops 2009 election expenses” followed by “$70,000 needed to keep families afloat” in the Okanagan. I think you get

the message. So what then is the answer? Decide what is important to you and the riding you live in. Then vote for the candidate you think can best represent those interests in Victoria. Keep in mind though that all party candidates are told how they must

vote by the party leader or whip so I question how they actually represent you. Perhaps an independent candidate might be the answer as I know there will be at least one running here in the upcoming election. Keith Quesnelle Summerland

THE EARLY YEARS

Dear Editor, The Summerland Film Club is into its winter season once again. Our next showing is Wednesday, Oct. 24, at 7 p.m. in the Rosedale Room at our Legion. The documentary is titled The Mormons. If you have ever wondered who they are and what their beliefs are, this is your opportunity to learn about it. This film has been sanctioned by the Mormon Church. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is one of Americans fastest-growing religions and, relative to its size, one of the richest. Church membership, now at 14 million and growing, has swept the globe. But, from the moment of its founding in 1830, the church has been controversial. In the past several decades the Mormon Church has transformed itself from a fringe sect into a thriving religion that embraces mainstream American values; its members include prominent and powerful politicians, university presidents and corporate leaders. Few know who the Mormons are, or who they claim to be, and their story is one of the great neglected American narratives. Admission is by donation. For more details, please visit summerlandfilms.ca.

Logging was quite a job in the 1930s without the benefit of heavy machinery, but these horses are doing a pretty good imitation of a skidder. We’re not sure which member of the Dunsdon family is bravely standing on the logs so if anyone recognizes him, we’d appreciate knowing. Harry Dunsdon came to Summerland in 1891, built a log cabin and started Harrowdene Ranch, the family homestead, in Garnett Valley along with his brother, Jim. As you can see by the photo, Dunsdons weren’t afraid of a little hard work. Several members of this enterprising pioneer family still reside in Summerland today.

Baha’is in Iran denied higher education Dear Editor: Living in Canada we have a tendency to take for granted the universal human right to education. Article 26 of the UN Universal Declaration of Human rights states “Everyone shall have the right to education” and “that higher education shall be equally accessible to all based on merit” and “individuals shall not be discriminated against on the basis of religious, political or ideological affiliations.” However, in today’s shrinking world, not everyone is afforded that luxury. In Iran, since the early

1980s, members of the Baha’i Faith have been denied the right to higher education based solely on ideological and religious beliefs. To overcome an unacceptable oppressive government policy, the Baha’i community in Iran devised a peaceful solution by forming the Baha’i Institute for Higher Education which provided university level courses to Baha’i youth in the kitchens and living rooms of Baha’i families throughout the country. In June, 2011, Iranian government agents conducted raids on these

homes, seized the computers and confiscated educational materials. They also arrested 19 BIHE professors and administrators. Six of them are imprisoned and serving four- to five-year sentences at this time. Mishkin Tavakoli feels truly blessed to be living in Canada and able to experience the freedom of access to educational opportunities. After an urgent need to leave Iran prior to the 1979 Iranian Revolution, the Tavakoli family eventually settled in Summerland in 1989. Mishkin attended primary school

in Summerland and later went on to study at Okanagan College. When I asked him how he would feel being denied access to higher education based on the requirement of renouncing his Baha’i religion he answered “I could never imagine what that would be like. I guess I would feel terribly disillusioned and trapped, unable to pursue my life goals, and it would greatly limit my choices in a career path. I wouldn’t be able to compete on a level playing field in seeking employment. It’s a hard question to answer not having walked in their

shoes (referring to Baha’i youth in Iran); however, I do communicate with cousins in Iran from time to time who share their guarded concerns with the situation.” When you prohibit an entire generation access to higher education it’s like cultural genocide. It’s very difficult to succeed in today’s world with a limited education. We would do well to remember the significance of our universal human right to education, free of harassment and discrimination. Richard Davies Summerland

Concerns about water Dear Editor: Recently, I heard a really good quote by E. B. White who said, “I have only one share in corporate Earth and I am nervous about the management.” On a local level specifically, I am worried about the dwindling water supply in the Okanagan Valley. When I read the

article appearing in last Thursday’s Review regarding the old cannery property changing hands, that quote floated into my mind. Apparently there will be more residential spaces built there. Are individual citizens carefully conserving water so that developers can carry on doing what they do?

SUMMERLAND BOTTLE DEPOT

This of course is happening throughout the valley but I wish that Summerland could be a better example. There are plenty of empty homes here but they are probably not what wealthier people from the coast and the province next door have in mind for their summer homes. Just what we need:

more “residents” who admittedly will be paying taxes but will not be supporting existing Summerland businesses for more than a couple of weeks each summer or getting involved in our community. I too am nervous about the management. S. Cooper Summerland

Thanks for museum support Dear Editor: Thanks to everyone who went to the Fall Fair this year and stopped in at the Summerland Museum’s Cannery Display and Vintage Sprayer Display and entered the draw for the door prizes. Marian Rudisill won the gift basket donated by Summerland Sweets, and Barb Aylward-McElgunn won the gift basket donated by the Poplar Grove Winery. Thanks to these two companies for their continued support of the Summerland Museum and the Community. The restored vintage sprayer which is now considered a

living and working artifact is permanently on display in the front garden of the museum. It will be active in the community for parades and special events. Donations to the Sprayer Restoration Fund are still needed and can be sent to the Summerland Museum at Box 1491, Summerland, B.C. V0H 1Z0 or dropped off at 9521 Wharton St. any Wednesday to Saturday from 1 to 4 p.m. All donors will receive an official charitable donation tax receipt and be listed on the informative plaque. We are still looking for more history

on this artifact. There are some unique markers on the front of the tank showing the number of gallons of wine that the tank holds. Could it have been used for wine at some time or did they just use an old wine cask to make the sprayer? If you know anything about this item please let the museum know. Any history and photos of other sprayers used by farmers and orchardists in the early years would also be appreciated for the museum’s archival collection.

Municipality receives award for conservation The municipality has received a conservation award in recognition of some of its energy efficiency work. The municipality recently received a PowerSense Conservation Excellence Award at the 2012 FortisBC PowerSense Forum. The award was given in recognition of the work done on the new RCMP building. The building uses natural light and high-efficiency fixtures where artificial light is needed. In addition, waste heat from the ice

plant at the Summerland Arena is used to heat the building and hot water. T h e Janice a r e n a Perrino produces enough heat to heat the entire RCMP building and the dressing rooms at the arena. Before the heat recovery equipment was installed, this waste heat was simply released into the air. In the summer, the process can be reversed to allow for

the cooling of the building. “We are very proud to receive this award from FortisBC for the energy conservation measures we took at our new RCMP building,” Mayor Janice Perrino said. “These measures will reduce our operating costs and taxpayer burden over the life of this building.” The municipality has also made improvements to the waste water treatment plant. These improvements will reduce power consumption and extend the useful life of the equipment.

Wifi hotspot Members of the Summerland Chamber of Economic Development and Tourism, along with municipal representatives and representatives from the provincial Ministry of Transportation gathered on Monday to officially launch a wifi hotspot at the Trout Creek pullout on Highway 97. The pullout allows travellers to stop and get Internet access. The first page accessed provides users with information about Summerland accommodations, restaurants, businesses and tourist attractions.

Thursday, October 18, 2012 Summerland Review

Survey shows community satisfaction by John Arendt Summerland is a good place to live and a very good place to retire, but the community falls short as a place to work, according to the results of a citizen survey conducted by the municipality. In June, a 10-page survey was sent to 1,000 households,

asking for ideas and opinions about the community. By the end of July, 387 had been returned. Almost 90 per cent said quality of life in Summerland is good or very good and more than 80 per cent said Summerland is a good or very good place to retire. As a place to work, the community got

lower marks as more than 35 per cent said it was a poor or very poor place to work. Mayor Janice Perrino said the work opportunities in Summerland remain a concern, especially since some major employers have left town in recent years. She said there are some optimistic about future employ-

ment opportunities in Summerland. “The future for Summerland is very exciting,” she said. She explained that the Wharton Street project and a proposed development at a cannery site on Lakeshore Drive will both provide employment opportunities, as will a new industrial park. While Summer-

landers appreciate the community, many of the respondents said taxes should not increase. The survey showed 50 per cent of those who responded would want the same or a reduced level of municipal services and projects, with taxes unchanged. Another 10 per cent wanted reduced municipal

services in exchange for lower taxes. One in three would advise municipal council to improve municipal projects and services with higher taxes. Seven per cent offered no opinion. At the same time, many were satisfied with the value they receive for the taxes they pay. Fewer than 17 per

cent disagreed or strongly disagreed that they were receiving good value. For capital projects, 53 per cent of those who responded to the survey said the municipality should borrow funds to get the work done while 47 per cent said the money should be set aside to complete projects later.

Communities should stay together, commission told by John Arendt The strong links between Summerland and Penticton should not be compromised by putting the communities into two different federal ridings, the Federal Electoral Boundary Commission was told. On Sept. 9, speaking to the commission, Connie Denesiuk of the Summerland Chamber of Economic Development and

Tourism said the proposed changes do not make sense. “There is an almost continuous residential link between the two communities and these boundary changes would dissect us in the middle of a vibrant and much joined business community,” she told the commission. “The proposed changes take away from our ability to advocate as a unit and diminish the sense of community these

neighbouring towns currently enjoy as we approach national issues together.” Summerland has much more in common with Penticton than with Peachland and West Kelowna, she added. The Central Okanagan communities are growing much more rapidly than Summerland and Penticton. At present, Summerland and Penticton share an MLA and a

school district. “When Summerland and Penticton amalgamated their school districts, it was widely regarded as one of the most successful amalgamations in the province,” Denesiuk said. Around 30 per cent of working Summerlanders commute to Penticton while around 15 per cent of those who work in Summerland live in Penticton. There are also many in con-

struction trades businesses who provide service to both communities. While each community has its own chamber of commerce, the two chambers worked together to make the presentation to the boundary commission. The boundary commission is looking to expand the federal House of Commons. The expansion calls for six additional seats in British Columbia.

Commuters urged to share rides by John Arendt Summerland commuters are being urged to get together during Carpool Week later this month. The second annual Carpool Week, Oct. 22 to 26, offers commuters who visit Carpool.ca a chance to win prizes for their carpool efforts. Julie McGuire, long-range planner and climate action coordinator for the municipality, said carpooling has plenty of benefits. “In addition to reducing your carbon footprint, carpooling can save you money,” she said. “At a time when people are really trying to watch their pennies, carpooling is an easy way to reduce costs on fuel and vehicle maintenance while making new friends.” At present, there are 29 people in Summerland carpooling as a result of carpool. ca. While this is more

than some larger communities in the area, McGuire wonders why more are not carpooling, considering the costs associated with driving. “People must not be in dire straits yet,” she said. She said according to information from Statistics Canada, the average Canadian household spends more than $12,000 a year on transportation alone, making it the second highest expense next to shelter. These costs include fuel, vehicle maintenance, insurance and registration and other expenses. McGuire said commuters can find rides through Carpool.ca. The service allows commuters to register and search for carpool partners. “It’s important to note that carpooling doesn’t require a large commitment,” said Anne Marie Thornton, manager of Carpool.ca.

Providing that there is enough interest, the Summerland Legion is hosting a Christmas Craft Fair on November 18th. If you would like to rent a table for $5, please contact us at 250-494-2301 to reserve.

Credit Union support Marilyn Hansen of the Trans Canada Trail Society, holding the poster, received a cheque for $916 from the Summerland and District Credit Union. Employees at the Credit Union raised the money through their Comfort for a Cause campaign. Beside Hansen is Shelley McEwan of the Credit Union.

Resident artist chosen Fibre artist named as artist in residence for this year by John Arendt

Fibre art Brandy Maslowski, a quilter, fibre artist and poet, is this year’s artist in residence at the Summerland Art Gallery. Her studio is behind the gallery on Main Street.

A fibre artist has been selected as this year’s artist in residence at the Summerland Art Gallery. Brandy Maslowski has been quilting for the past 12 years and has done fibre art for the past six years. She also teaches quilting and fibre art across Canada. Maslowski started quilting in 2000, when preparing to have her child. She wanted to make a baby blanket, similar to the one her grandmother had made for her. After that project, she tried working with different colour schemes and designs. One of the classes she teaches is on how to make traditional baby blankets. Later, she branched out into other fibre art techniques. As she got some of her work into galleries, she realized she

wanted to do more with quilting and fibre art. In the past year, she has launched a business in fibre art and as a result, she has not been able to devote as much time to her art. “Now that I’ve landed the artist in residency role, I can separate my business from my art,” she said. Maslowski also writes poetry and is working on a project which incorporates fibre art and the writ-

ten word. “I want to be able to synch my poetry and my art,” she said. Maslowski will also offer four classes while working as the artist in residence.

The first of these is on Nov. 3. Her studio, at the rear of the Summerland Art Gallery on Main Street, is open Monday to Friday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Let us know If you would like a reporter or photographer to cover a special event, please contact the newsroom at least one full business day in advance.

Have you ever woken up with a â&#x20AC;&#x153;crickâ&#x20AC;? in your neck? There is a variety of things that can contribute to neck pain, such as arthritis, but taking a look at how you sleep can help a great deal. Your neck is happiest with back or side sleeping. Ensure your pillow is soft enough to conform to your neck and support it without making it flex up or down. And use a U-shaped neck pillow when upright, such as on an airplane.

Overuse of painkillers, such as acetaminophen, ASA, codeine products and anti-inflammatories, can actually cause headaches! They are termed â&#x20AC;&#x153;rebound headachesâ&#x20AC;? and tend to affect people who use painkillers 10-15 days or more per month. The treatment is to stop the medications completely â&#x20AC;&#x201C; but it may take up to a month for the headaches to resolve. Acupuncture is often a suggested alternative treatment. Migraines affect approximately 12% of the population and often trend in families. Some scientists are seeking a possible genetic link for migraines and 2 genes have been recently related â&#x20AC;&#x201C; in addition to 3 others that were discovered last year. There doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem to be a cause-effect relationship yet, but the information may lead to some new, more effective, therapies down the road. There are several effective medications for migraines â&#x20AC;&#x201C; some for treating and some for preventing. Preventative medications are most effective when taken regularly and when chosen to match the specific migraine profile of the afflicted person. To prepare to talk to your physician for help, keep a migraine diary to identify the frequency of attacks as well as any precipitating triggers. Talk to our pharmacists about what migraine treatment options can be tailored to your needs and how to keep a migraine diary.

Arts classes The Arts Council is offering another series of Fall into Art fall and winter classes for adults. The first one will be on Saturday, Oct. 27 and will feature Nuno Rusca Felting with Barbara Wellborn. Nuno Rusca Felting takes a gossamer base fabric such as silk, fine cotton, rayon or wool and transforms and enriches it with a light weight application of wool. Contrasting the shrinking wool fibre with a non-shrinking woven fabric produces a beautiful texture, or â&#x20AC;&#x153;ruscaâ&#x20AC;?, a medieval Latin term for â&#x20AC;&#x153;bark of a tree.â&#x20AC;?

Participants will complete two finished pieces of approximately 24 inches square after shrinkage. No previous felting experience required. Registration is required. There will be an Embellished Fibre Hand Stitching with Brandy Maslowski on Saturday, Nov. 3 and a Drawing and Painting from Life with Bill Hibberd on Saturday and Sunday, Nov. 18 and 19.

SADI drops fees for membership Membership fees have been eliminated for students joining the Summerland Asset Development Initiative. In the past, the youth organization charged $25 a student or $35 a family for a yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s membership. Laceydawn Loeppky, youth activities coordinator at the organization, said the fees were dropped in order to allow more youths to join. Memberships are needed for special events. Students are still required to be mem-

bers. The membership form includes emergency contact information and allergy information. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We feel that with this change it will open the doors of SADI for families that donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have the extra income to pay for a membership, and help SADI be more inclusive to all students of Summerland,â&#x20AC;? Loeppky said. In the past, membership fees brought in around $2,000 a year. The organizationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s draft budget was $127,000 a year.

Teigan Holinaty, left, eight years old, and Jada Bryant, seven years old, get help from Don McKenzie during a science lesson at the Summerland Asset Development Initiative’s Unity Youth Centre.

Homeschooled students join bid to set science record by John Arendt More than 30 homeschooled students in Summerland gathered for a science lesson in an attempt to break a world record. The students, who were at the Summerland Asset Development Initiative’s Unity Youth Centre on Friday at 10 a.m., were among thousands from 135 locations across Canada participating in a bid to have the largest practical science lesson in multiple locations. The effort coincided with National Science and Technology Week. Across the country, the lesson was the same as students learned and did experiments on Ber-

noulli’s principle, which deals with the movement of a fluid through a pressure difference. This principle is most often seen in the behaviour and design of airplane wings. Students at the lesson ranged in age from seven to 17. Don McKenzie, a retired science professor from the former Okanagan University College, taught the lesson to the Summerland participants. Amie Harbor, one of the organizers of the Summerland event, said it was a positive experience for the homeschooled students. “It’s good for the kids to get together,” she said, The results are now being sent to Science.

The Summerland Parks and Recreation Department has been sponsoring and organizing a community Halloween party for more than 27 years. In the Fall 1985 program guide a pool party was organized for Oct. 31 and children and families were invited to participate in water games. The Halloween party moved from the pool to the Summerland Youth Centre on Giant’s Head Road in the early 1990s. I remember the stage area was transformed into a haunted house and the closets and storage areas under the stage were great for scaring kids as they travelled through the haunted house. In the mid 1990s the Halloween party moved into the retail area of the new Dollar Store, previously the Fields store at the Summerfair Mall. The Recreation Department had to move to the mall location because the Youth Centre was taken down and

LEISURE TIMES

Brenda Ingram rebuilt on the present Peach Orchard Road location. In the later 1990s the party moved back to the Aquatic and Fitness Centre and remains to be a huge success. On Oct. 27, we will host 300 kids and more than 50 volunteers. Many children look forward to this night of games on the pool deck, games in the water and of course the outdoor haunted tunnel. I have heard many young and old adults talk about trying not to be scared and if they could make it through the tunnel without screaming. Often children come

back as teens to volunteer in the tunnel and try to make the younger children scream as they had when they were younger. You might ask who thinks up these games and frightening activities? Well, our lifeguards are the most creative thinkers, with Ed Casavant and Shawn Landriault leading the organizing and fundraising. The community has always been very generous with donating goodies and funds for the children at the Halloween Haunt. Prizes and candies are given out at all the game tables. Tickets are now on sale for the 2012 Halloween Haunt, Oct. 27 at the Aquatic Centre. This event sells out each year so I encourage you to buy your tickets early and don’t be disappointed. Happy Halloween! Brenda Ingram is the Programs and Facilities Manager for the District of Summerland and proud to be a longtime resident of this great community.

X-C race next month On Sunday, Nov. 4th at 10 a.m. there will be a 7.4-kilometre cross-country race beginning near the Rodeo Grounds. The race will be the last of six races put on this year by the Interior Running Association and sponsored by the Vernon running and outdoor store, The Starting Block. The route will have runners make their way along the relatively flat TransCanada Trail towards Summerland, and then at the 3.5-kilometre mark they will head back towards the Rodeo Grounds along a higher trail, which includes a few hills before a generally flat and downhill 1.5 kilometres to the finish. The course will have washroom facilities at the start, spotters along the route, prizes for the first three finishers in each of the five-year

age categories, as well as draw prizes. Steve King, veteran race announcer, will be encouraging runners at the finish line. The race is suitable for both casual joggers as well as more competitive runners. Organizers say thanks to Dale MacDonald at the Sum-

merland Recreation Department for his support and to Summerland Sweets and Sleeping Giant Fruit Winery for prizes. For more information, or if you would like to volunteer at the race, please email Bill Head at theheadband@live. com or Mike Braid at jamibraid@shaw.ca.

Fencing set up at wetland

Fencing work Bryn White, left, of the South Okanagan Similkameen Conservation Program, conservation officer Jim Beck, Summerland Sportsmenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Association vice-president Tim Leardo and Summerland Sportsmenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Association president Dave Carleton set up fencing and placed strategic boulders around Ritchie Lake to protect the wetland area.

A damaged wetland in the Garnett Valley is being restored with a combination of government and volunteer resources. Located in the Garnett Valley north of Summerland, the wetland is known as Ritchie Lake. It is being fenced and further protected with the placement of boulders. At one time the wetland held water year-round and had typical wetland vegetation including bulrushes and even an occurence of spadefoot toad, now listed

federally as a species at risk. Over the years the wetland has been damaged by ATV/ off road vehicle mudbogging and cattle. The partners in the project included South Okanagan Similkameen Conservation Program (SOSCP); Summerland Sportsmenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Association; Province of BC (FLNRO Ecosystems, Forest and Range); Conservation Officer Service; and Habitat Conservation Trust Foundation Public Conservation Assistance Fund.
