Filming

John Arendt Summerland Review

Members of a movie crew work on the filming of A Sister’s Nightmare, a movie filmed in part in Summerland. A scene on Monday was filmed in front of The Beanery on Victoria Road at Main Street. From left are first assistant Luke Barlow, dolly grip Philippe Palu, B camera operator George Campbell and second assistant Ryan Tebbutt. The thriller stars Natasha Henstridge and Kelly Rutherford. It is scheduled for release later this year.

The Summerland Asset Development Initiative will receive a $5,000 grant in aid from the municipality to assist with its overhead costs. On Monday, municipal council approved the request, which had been put on hold when council approved other funding requests earlier. The youth organization operates the Unity Youth Centre and provides activities and drop-in services for teens in the community. “I’m pleased to see this has gone forward,” said Coun. Peter Waterman. “The SADI group does an incredible job in town. I’m looking forward to SADI’s continued work.” Coun. Orv Robson said the youth organization has the use of a municipal building but pays the related expenses. He added that the funding is important because of the work done by SADI. “The work they do with youth is commendable,” he said. “This is a very beneficial organization and we should maintain it as long as we can.” The funding motion was carried unanimously. Coun. Bruce Hallquist and Coun. Robert Hacking were not present at the meeting.

Machtaler wins golf tourney by John Arendt

Summerland Golf and Country Club assistant pro Greg Machtaler won at a recent B.C. tournament. Machtaler turned a one-stroke opening day deficit into a two-stroke win at the 2013 FlightScope/COBRA-PUMA Professional Golfers Association of B.C. Assist-

ants’ Championship at the Chilliwack Golf Club. He followed his opening day 69 with a 65, which included a chip-in birdie at the 15th which gave him the lead over first-round leader Gordy Scutt of the Olympic View Golf Club. “That definitely gave me a comfortable cushion,” Machtaler said. He made the hole with

a 12-yard pitch shot from behind the 15th green. “Making it was the last thing on my mind,” said Machtaler. “I was pretty happy when it went in.” Machtaler dedicated the victory to his high school friend Chris Walker, who passed away May 23 from stomach cancer. “I’d like to think a part of this is due to him,” Machtaler said.

The win brought him $3,000 and he had the added bonus of playing with friends Scutt and Lindsay Bernakevitch in the final grouping of the day. Machtaler’s 134 total was two better than Scutt’s 136 total, which featured back-to-back rounds of 68. Machtaler has played competitively since high

school. He attended Brigham Young University on a golf scholarship and also played the professional circuit. While he would like to return to the pro circuit in the future, he said golfing at that level becomes expensive. “It’s very, very tough unless you have some financial backing,” he said.

Telus adds fibre optic cable by John Arendt

In an effort to provide increased Internet speeds and provide an Internetbased television service in the area, Telus is spending $3 million to bring fibre optic cables to Summerland. The gigabit passive optical network technology offers Inter-

net speeds up to 50 megabits per second. This allows for faster Internet speeds and also gives Summerlanders access to Telus’s Optik TV service. “Telus’s $3 million investment means businesses and consumers right here in Summerland will be directly wired to fibre optics, the most

advanced communications infrastructure in the world,” said Steve Jenkins, Telus general manager for southern British Columbia. “This means access to the fastest Internet speed Telus offers as well as our Internetbased TV service, Optik TV, giving you real choice in your TV service for the first

time.” Shawn Hall of Telus media relations said the upgrade will not result in any significant disruption of service. For telephone customers, the change will not be noticeable, but for those using Internet or looking to the television service, the improvements will be dramatic.

“We’re trying to build a most compelling television service,” he said. Those already on a high-speed Internet plan through Telus may notice increases in the speed of their service. They will also be able to upgrade to faster service plans than have been available previously. The Summerland upgrade is part of a three year, $3 billion project by Telus in B.C.

EDITORIAL

our pick

Online access Telus’s $3 million plan to bring fibre optic cable to Summerland is one of several recent initiatives to improve Internet service in the community. The announcement follows an initiative by Shaw to set up free wireless Internet access points around Summerland. In both cases, the service upgrades are necessary as the Internet becomes an increasingly important information and communications tool. British Columbia has the highest rate of Internet use in Canada, with 86 per cent of the population connected, according to Statistics Canada data from 2010, the most recent figures available. Those under 45 had the highest rate of use. Among those 65 to 74 years of age, more than half go online and among those 75 and older, more than one in four are Internet users. In addition to finding information and communicating with others, banking and shopping are also becoming increasingly important for online users. The value of online transactions in Canada can be measured in the billions of dollars. In some cases, transactions are easier to conduct online than in person. It is reasonable to expect more transactions and interactions will take place online in the future. What this means for our community is that it is increasingly important to offer access and a reliable Internet service. The announcements by Shaw and Telus address these needs. The fibre optics service upgrade and the community wireless Internet access points will become increasingly necessary simply to keep up with our growing Internet use and with the increasing demand for faster and more convenient service.

We are glad Summerland has been chosen as a filming location for an upcoming motion picture. Film crews have used several spots around the community and in the region for the filming of the thriller, A Sister’s Nightmare. A movie shooting such as this one can help to showcase our community for the rest of the world to see.

Expense cleanup must continue VICTORIA – As she unveiled her new cabinet, Premier Christy Clark promised a “lineby-line” review of government spending to deliver a balanced budget this year. Statements such as this would have more credibility if politicians subjected their own personal spending to the same scrutiny. That’s still not happening Tom Fletcher in B.C. Expense accountability has come a long way in the last year, thanks mainly to the work of now-departed Auditor General John Doyle, who swung the cobweb-covered door open on B.C.’s secretive Legislative Assembly Management Committee. Chaired by the speaker and run by senior MLAs from both parties, the committee had been doing pretty much whatever it wanted with MLAs’ own expenses. Doyle’s audit found that MLA credit card bills were being paid without receipts, part of a lax accounting system that included inaccurate bank records and inadequate management of the legislature gift shop and dining room. The operating budget of the legislature and constituencies runs to more than $60 million a year. Now-retired speaker Bill Barisoff asked the auditor to give a pass to the $119,000 annual allowance for each of

the 85 constituency offices. Transfer amounts and payroll expenses were verified, but constituency expenses were not, likely because these records weren’t kept either. I’m not suggesting that there has been any misuse of public funds. The point is we don’t know, and the notion of an “honour system” for politicians’ expenses has become unacceptable. A similar toxic tale has been unfolding in the Senate in Ottawa. It has its own secretive committee called the Board of Internal Economy, which was forced into the open after trying to sweep Senator Mike Duffy’s housing claims under the red rug of the Senate chamber. Duffy has lived in Ottawa for decades, first as a TV host and then senator, but he decided the rules were loose enough that he could claim his summer place in Prince Edward Island as his principal residence. An audit has also found he was claiming living expenses in Ottawa while campaigning for the Conservatives back east. It turns out the key ingredient in an honour system is honour. This mess goes back more than a century in B.C. and Canada, and has its roots in the British Parliament, where MPs and Lords had a system of claiming all sorts of expenses, including construction of a “duck house” and maintenance of the moat around an Honourable Member’s castle.

Many years ago, British MPs convinced themselves that they were underpaid, and rather than create a public fuss by giving themselves a big raise, they would be able to top it up by claiming up to 250 pounds at a time without receipts. Cheers! You can imagine how well that worked out. As one observer put it, the system was not only open to abuse, it was actually designed for it. Here in B.C., the next step is obvious. If you go to the website of Alberta Premier Alison Redford, you can easily find the link to her detailed expense reports, itemized for travel, meals, hotel rooms and so forth. Alberta cabinet ministers provide the same disclosure. B.C. cabinet ministers’ travel expenses are now reported, but only as an occasional lump sum. As a result of Doyle’s revelations last summer, B.C.’s Legislative Assembly Management Committee now meets in public, with transcripts of proceedings available. But MLA expenses are still not itemized. Total expenditures are being reported on a quarterly basis, but with no detail to explain why some MLAs have much higher totals than others. It’s time to sweep out the cobwebs. Tom Fletcher is legislative reporter and columnist for Black Press and BCLocalnews.com. tfletcher@blackpress.ca

bad apples When cyclists ride against the flow of traffic, they put themselves and other cyclists at risk. While the majority of Summerland’s cyclists ride with the flow of traffic as the law states, a few insist on riding on the wrong side of the road. This puts them at greater risk of a collision with a motor vehicle. It also puts them at risk with a collision or near miss with another cyclist. It’s much safer to cycle with the traffic.

Agricultural land must be preserved Dear Editor: With regard to the article, Growth Options Shown, and your editorial, A land use tradeoff, on June 6 in the Summerland Review, the

suggestion that lands be removed from the Agricultural Land Reserve for development purposes continues the longstanding debate as to whether our society

truly values our own capacity to grow food locally. Despite the federal government’s Orwellian redefinition of the term “local” in regard to

agricultural production, I consider my “local” to be within the Okanagan region and preferably within my own town. Presently I enjoy walking to the local

market on Tuesday or to my local fruit, berry, vegetable and egg supplier at the edge of town. Many Summerland residents do the same.

The Early years

Father’s Day drive

Photo courtesy of the Summerland Museum

In 1909 George and Joe Garnett were out with Mom (Eva), Dad (Ed) and Grandpa (James) for what could have been a Father’s Day drive in the family car. The car, a 1908 McLaughlin, was one of the first cars manufactured in Canada. It featured a Buick motor and chassis, but the body was built by the McLaughlin Motor Car Company (part of the McLaughlin Carriage Company) owned by Robert McLaughlin, along with his sons, George and Samuel. This Father’s Day, you don’t have to build a car or even go for a drive—unless that’s what Dad wants to do. Just be sure to have a Happy Father’s Day.

Your editorial suggests that removing hectares from the ALR “would be met with resistance from some within the agricultural community.” What this comment highlights is a strong disconnect in thinking about our relation to the land and food production. If you eat fruit, vegetables, meat or fowl you are a part of the agricultural community if only as an end user, rather than producer or middle supplier. The question has been voiced in the media recently that if our external food supply is lessened or becomes too expensive (i.e. from California or Mexico) do we have the capacity to produce food more locally? While some people find this question poses an unlikely scenario, I will remind them that droughts in Russia, China, Africa, Mexico, Midwest U.S.A. and California have all affected food production, supply and cost in recent years. Weather affects everyone, and we

may have to grow more food locally in order to respond to effects of global climate change. That there are portions of land close to town within the ALR which have not been farmed for decades is not reason to change the zoning of those lands. Unused or fallow lands are an expression of the owners’ financial capacity to own land without farming it, not of the land’s viability or capacity to produce. I realize that many owners of lands within the ALR resent the rules which do not permit them to subdivide and develop as they wish. There are always development rules with any piece of property, many restrictions regarding housing density, height, square footage, type, style, and quality of construction. In the case of the ALR, the rules protect the land from overdevelopment. Place housing developments elsewhere. Heather S. Ross Summerland

Dear Editor: After several years of not having a bowling alley, it was great when one opened two years ago. Unfortunately, it will be closing at the end of June. Why? Lack of support from the people of Summerland. There were some leagues during the winter but they were small and not enough to support this business. As mentioned to me the other day by another bowler, this

was the winter activity I enjoyed. And it is close to home. Now what can I do? We also bowled. Hosts Gayle and Gordon made the bowling alley a friendly, fun place to come too. Not all bowling alleys are as bright and clean as ours. This was evidenced by the hard work they did before opening two years ago. This activity will be missed by those who enjoyed it. I. and R. Taylor Summerland

Bowling alley Dedication seen at Action Fest will close Dear Editor: Sandi and I took in a lot of the Action Fest this past weekend after a 20-year absence. We had a great time reuniting with old

friends and enjoying the various activities that were going on in the park and around town. The level of participation by people of every age was

really something to see. What impressed us the most is the continued dedication of the municipal staff who work so hard to make it happen and

the volunteers who continue to support this great event year after year. Action Fest has really remained true to its roots. Congratulations.

Just a few years away from retirement and we can hardly wait to start making this an annual event again. Bob and Sandi Vincent Penticton

Protest of big oil companies urged Dear Editor: I read many letters to the editor about high gasoline prices and need to add my two cents’ worth. As I see it we can either buy stocks in an oil company and then buy fuel only from that oil company as you wait for a year-end dividend or we buy all of our fuel from a company that does not own a refinery. This would eliminate any profits to the downstream side of the major oil companies and they

would then have to sell their product to independent fuel outlets. If we all did this then the fuel prices would be lowered quickly as the major fuel producers need to be profitable on their retail marketing side and would lower prices to lure you back to their outlets. Twenty years ago, I was a dealer for a large oil company in Edmonton and had a full and self serve outlet (plus car wash and repair bays) that sold a very high vol-

ume of fuel for this oil company. All of the dealers in our group were at a meeting where an executive laid out the company plan to shut refinery capacity all across Canada so the refined product more closely matched their retail sales thereby eliminating the independents’ competitive edge (efficiency.) They would keep

a smaller amount of product to sell to the independent at a higher price so they would not get in trouble under the combines act. Within two weeks of that meeting, this oil company announced closure of two major refineries and they followed their plan as it was laid out to us. The results have been slowly coming in as they stat-

ed they would and their profits have increased as they expected. All of the major oil companies had the same plans at the same time. Did they plan this together? I purchase all of my fuel (in town and when traveling) from the independent supplier to make my statement and wished that all of us would also do this.

In Penticton there are only two outlets that fit this criteria but when traveling it takes very little effort to locate and support the independent marketers. It also appears that most independents are the last to raise prices and the first to lower them as well as offering an in store discount in fuel coupons as well. Please join me in

my protest of big oil. If we all do it we will be successful as we have the power of numbers. The local dealer at the major oil company outlets is caught in the middle of this and has little to no control over pricing. Call me with any questions or concerns on this topic at 250490-9639.

Dear Editor: It is with very heavy hearts that we announce the resignation of Rose Gingras, from our Dog House Division. Rose is the finest animal control officer that we have the pleasure to know. She dealt with res-

cue a decade before any other ACOs or shelters would even consider it. She provides the communities she serves with a standard of excellence that rates head and shoulders above others. Her resigna-

tion from Critteraid comes from a place of being overwhelmingly busy and constantly frustrated with the lack of support from dog owners. Truthfully, we have pulled off more than our share of miracles. With the way of the world, most stakeholders in “doggy world” have no time to help when asked. The time has come for Rose to step back. That means Critteraid will no longer be operating the Dog House Division. We will refer other rescues and hope they step up and look after dogs we normally would help. Dogs that are in some fashion special — like Hailey the senior shepherd x that was miraculously adopted, Roscoe who waited for almost a year for his very own special family because he had such a unique medical condition, Creme Puff who literally went

mad being crated in a small cage all his life, and Diesel who was covered in blood after his owner was murdered. Our Dog Division has always operated in a deficit position with few volunteers. Our fosters are worth their weight in gold — Sue, Donna, Rose, Don, Paula, Cy, Dave, and even new ones. But, for the most part, fosters are snatched up by new rescues bringing in dogs from elsewhere. It is a sensitive subject which is literally changing the face of rescue throughout B.C. We are one of the original “rescue” and are humbled with our efforts to stay the high road at all times. It is our fervent desire that these new rescues will strive for those high standards. We are still here. In one last ditch effort to try and save the Dog House Division, we are hosting

a meeting on Wednesday, June 19, 6 p.m., at the Critteraid Charity Shoppe, Summerland. It has to be a concerted effort by people who can work together as a team, have the same goals and are willing to help dogs that are often overlooked by other rescues. Most of that work is administration. To Rose and Don, we thank you and stand tall honouring you for all the lives you have saved, the sea of tears you’ve cried, the bites and bruises and all you endure. We applaud you for your strength of character, putting one foot in front of the other and carrying on for this long. We are all hopeful that people will come to this meeting. As a board, we are defining what we need and perhaps, just perhaps, we can make another miracle happen. We hope to see you there. Deborah Silk Critteraid Board of Directors Summerland

Summerland Review Thursday, June 13, 2013

Vigilance urged to stop invasive species What do the Zebra mussel, yellow starthistle and Brazilian elodea have in common? They are all invasive species that do not occur in British Columbia but have the potential to threaten the Okanagan’s environment and have a big impact financially. June 10 to 16 is B.C.’s second annual Invasive Species Week. This week-long event provides an opportunity for people all around the province to participate in local events and learn more about how to prevent the spread of invasive species. This year’s theme is “working together to stop the spread.” “Invasive species know no boundaries; they span landscapes, land ownerships and jurisdictions. Because of this, it’s imperative that we work cooperatively to address the issue. We all need to take responsibility,” said Lisa Scott, a Summerland biologist who is also the coordinator of the Okanagan and

Invasive species

While zebra mussels do not yet occur in British Columbia, scientists believe this and other invasive species present a threat to the province.

Similkameen Invasive Species Society. Invasive species are plants, animals, aquatic life and micro-organisms that out-compete native species when introduced outside of their natural environment. They can come from across the country or across the globe. These unwelcome invaders create an imbalance in nature by competing for the same resources that native species need to survive. The economic costs associated with inva-

sive species in Canada are measured in the tens of billions of dollars, and those costs are escalating. In the Okanagan and Similkameen region, the impacts of invasive species have become an increasing concern for many organizations. The programs and stewardship actions lead by the non-profit society OASISS are on the front lines of eradicating, slowing the spread, and addressing the enormous collateral damage of invasive spe-

cies. Of particular concern in the Okanagan Valley is the potential arrival of zebra and quagga mussels. These freshwater invertebrates rapidly colonize hard surfaces and can clog water-intake structures, impact recreation and devastate local fisheries. At present, the closest population is in California but some biologists believe it is only a

matter of time before they arrive here. In the Okanagan, the effects of their invasion would be felt at the commercial activity level, throughout the tourism sector and at the ecological level. Direct costs and lost revenues are estimated to be $42 million each year. Yellow starthistle occurs in Washington. While it is not yet known to occur in British Columbia, it is close to the borders. Prevention of harmful new invasions is the most costeffective way to deal with the problem. Once species are established, the task becomes far more complex and costly. The issue of invasive aquatic species is a particularly hot topic this year and it’s the focus of an Okanagan-wide campaign this summer. During Invasive Species Week, events are being held throughout the OkanaganSimilkameen. Take the time to

become more familiar with these unwanted invaders and learn what you can do to

make a difference. Go to www.oasiss.ca for a complete list of events.

book page. Coming from all over North America these wine bloggers tweet and blog about the wine they’ve tasted here and the experiences they’ve had in the Okanagan. Altogether the approximately 250 bloggers will have created many thousands of tweets while they were here. The wine bloggers conference organizers studied these results two years ago and estimated that these tweets resulted in more than 40 million media impressions. And after the participants have gone home, they will continue to publish blog posts about their experiences here. That’s a lot of eyes on B.C. wines and our growing Okanagan wine and food

culture. Previous conferences have also resulted in more tourism and income to the featured regions. So if that’s what blogging can do for the wine industry, what can it do for other Summerland businesses? According to the Content Mastery Guide – a blog about blogging – there are many business benefits to blogging. Blogging helps you provide value to your customers by providing them with information they can use. Here in Summerland that might mean blogs about organic baking, techniques for refinishing furniture, the best dental hygiene, bike trails or automotive services. The breadth of topics is as varied as our local businesses. Blogging helps

A public service message from Bell, Jacoe & Company

The Drug War Many people will read the above caption and assume this column is about the fight against illegal drugs. Not so, because there is another drug war raging in our country. One that might have an even more far reaching effect than illegal drugs. It is the fight between the pharmaceutical drug manufacturers who spend millions of dollars researching, testing and developing new "Brand Name" drugs and the generic drug manufacturers who want the "Brand Name" monopolies that our federal patent legislation allows to be dismantled.

Chamber Corner

Christine Petkau customers and colleagues learn more about you – both as a business and as the people behind the business. This helps you build authentic relationships with a wider network of readers. Blogging helps you start discussions with your community and gives your readers an opportunity to provide you with feedback on your product as well as ask you questions. Blogging can help you build confidence

as a business owner by sharing your expertise and it will encourage your readers to spend more time on your site. Here at the Summerland Chamber we have noticed the difference that enhanced tweeting and more blog posts have made to our own website. That’s why, come fall, we will be offering our business members an educational opportunity that will help them improve their social media marketing as well. We expect to learn a lot. We always appreciate your feedback. Please contact me at manager@summerlandchamber.com or our chamber president, Arlene Fenrich, at president@summ e r l a n d c h a m b e r. com. Christine Petkau is the manager of the Summerland Chamber of Commerce.

The Summerland Minor Hockey Association would like to thank the following businesses and organizations for sponsoring our teams this year: Safari Water Treatment, Spud Brothers, Game Time Sports, Summerland and District Credit Union, Nester’s Market, Tim Horton’s, McDonalds and Summerland Kinsmen.

Both sides have very convincing arguments. On the one hand, the research to develop a new drug is incredibly expensive and can only be recovered in the years after its production. If that cost recovery was threatened by cheaper substitutes, then, one has to ask, would any research ever be done? On the other hand, the generic manufacturers argue that the public has a right to inexpensive medicine and therefore the benefit to the public good outweighs any profit motive.

We would also like to thank the Summerland Royal Canadian Legion for their ongoing support of association.

The "legal"drug battle will rage on in the Legislature and Courts of the Land for at least as long as its "illegal" cousin.

Father’s Day 2013

Gift ideas for Father’s Day

Sign installation

Photo by ET2media

On Sunday afternoon, Summerland machinist/welder Ken Brown, right, and friend Rick Hill installed replicas of apple-shaped signs that were once attached to the 1939 fieldstone marker on Highway 97 near the Trout Creek Bridge. Last fall the marker was moved to its new location at the tourist pullout in Trout Creek. Summerland’s Heritage Advisory Commission helped co-ordinate restoration of this marker and one at Bentley Road, which was the former northern entrance to Summerland. The completed project will be celebrated at the Trout Creek location on Tuesday, June 18 at 10 a.m. All welcome.

Buying something special for Dad this Father’s Day and want to forego the usual tie and cologne? Consider some of these ideas – from the dad who feels at home in the kitchen to the dad who prefers to be one with nature, find the perfect gift that yours will love. o The chef: Father’s Day coincides with the summer grilling season. Consider a gift of a stainless steel barbecue set. Dad will appreciate the look and feel of the tools for making the perfect summertime backyard meal for friends and family. o The sports fanatic: If Pops is an avid baseball or soccer fan, give him the gift of a family sports day, with tickets to his team’s next game for an outing you can all enjoy with him. Don’t forget to treat him to some traditional stadium fare – hotdogs, popcorn and a refreshing beverage will more than make Dad happy as he cheers on his favourite

players and heckles the opponents. o The gadget guy: For the dad who loves tech toys, a satellite radio will provide hours of entertainment, for the car and to take on-the-go. The commute to work will be more enjoyable as he listens to his choice of sports, talk, comedy and commercial-free music or catches up on the news. o The outdoorsman: Is Dad restless unless he gets outside, regardless of the time of year or season? Consider getting him into a new outdoor hobby to pass the time – a fishing rod, golf clubs, or even a pair of snowshoes might be just the ticket for a unique gift that will impress. Whatever you decide to gift Dad with this year, don’t forget that a hug and an appreciative thanks for being “the best Dad ever” is more than enough in his eyes, and one you’ll be sure to know he will love. — News Canada

Events will be held at numerous lakes in the area, including Chain Lake west of Summerland. A complete list of participating communities and events can be found at bcfamilyfishing.com. “These events offer a great opportunity to learn about and how to fish in a fun and supervised environment,” said Owen Bird, executive director of the Family Fishing Society of B.C.

Bluegrass sounds at music festival by Carla McLeod

The sounds of bluegrass

Carla McLeod Special to the Summerland Review

The Midnight Roses were the feature performance at the Bluegrass Festival on Saturday evening. Liza Holder on guitar, Eliza Doyle on banjo and Paula McGuigan on upright bass, along with lead vocalist Myshel Pajuaar, not pictured, gave an unforgettable musical performance. With an aunt and cousin living in Summerland, Doyle expressed how nice it was to have been invited to play here. “The people are so nice and what’s great about a bluegrass festival is that everyone just loves playing music.”

Thursday, June 13, 2013 Summerland Review

The 18th Annual Summerland Bluegrass Festival was held on June 7, 8 and 9 at the Summerland Rodeo Grounds. Denise Trudeau, president of the Summerland Bluegrass Group said they changed the format of the festival this year to include workshops and a featured band. The Midnight Roses, from Swift Current Saskatchewan performed on Saturday evening from 7 to 9 p.m. Inspired by old time country, folk and bluegrass, these four young women come together to create something truly unique. The combination of powerful vocals and stunning harmonies bring a fresh sound to the music scene. They are Saskatchewan’s “next big thing,” according to industry professionals from across North America. They were on site to sign CDs and chat with festival goers following the performance. Over the course of the weekend there was still plenty of open mic time, where people signed up and had an opportun-

ity to sing and play together on stage. Jam sessions were also scheduled. Many different workshops were offered at no extra cost. Lawrence Trudeau was instrumental in starting the Festival. A bursary in memory of his name and in respect for all that he has done to promote the music, is given out each year.

said. The older generation teaches the traditional bluegrass to the younger ones, who then put a new spin on it and make it their own. This is often referred to as “newgrass.” “We need the young people to keep it going,” she said. “In the U.S., bluegrass is very popular with the young folks, but not here. It is a

“In the U.S., bluegrass is very popular with the young folks, but not here. It is a matter of educating people to show them what it’s all about in order to have it grow.”

Denise Trudeau

“One of my father’s visions was to infuse a little bit of bluegrass in everyone and he was always so eager to help the young people and to welcome them into the bluegrass family. I know in my heart he would be pleased with our new format,” Denise Trudeau said. “We want to draw more local people as well as invite the younger folks. We need to encourage and invite younger people in or we will lose the tradition.” The bluegrass family includes old and young, Trudeau

matter of educating people to show them what it’s all about in order to have it grow.” The festival drew people from around the province, as well as from Alberta, Saskatchewan and the United States. Moving forward, the Summerland Bluegrass would like to make the festival more of a community event, inviting in newcomers, along with those who regularly attend. This will ensure that bluegrass does not die out, as well as benefitting Summerland’s economy.

Ask Your Dentist...

I have o n e crown in the front of my mouth that I have never liked because of the Dr. Cindee Melashenko colour, how can it be fixed? Making a crown for a single front tooth and trying to ensure it blends with natural teeth can be very challenging. Sometimes the best option is to have the crown remade to achieve a closer match to your natural tooth colour. We can usually get close, but you will likely always notice a slight difference compared to your other teeth. Another option is to treat the neighbouring teeth at the same time. Sometimes the teeth on either side of that tooth have pre-existing fillings as well and by doing crowns or veneers at the same time, it is easier to obtain a better match and blend with your smile. Our eyes are drawn to symmetry (or asymmetry!), so if both your two front teeth have newly matched crowns you may be happier with the outcome. Most patients indicate that they would like whiter teeth. Whenever you are deciding to do changes, especially in the front, you may want to consider whitening your teeth before you begin. This way we can match any new dental work to your new lighter shade. 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!

Rockets seeking elite hockey talent After falling one win short of their ultimate goal during the 2012-2013 playoff drive, the Okanagan Rockets have made it clear that with the new season on the horizon, the club has one goal, and it’s simply to get to the Canadian Midget Championships, the Telus Cup. The Okanagan Rockets Major Midget squad is made up of 15-, 16- and 17-yearold players from Osoyoos through to Lumby. Typically, the majority of the squad is made up of West Kelowna, Kelowna, and Vernon players. Rockets general manager David Michaud is hoping to

see a little more representation from the South Okanagan. “We have had some pretty good players over the years come from the South, and we would love to see that continue.” he said “We understand that the drive is probably the single largest drawback to come and play for us, but much like the Vernon players, if there are a few players that come from the South, carpooling certainly lessens the load on the individual families.” If Michaud has a message to the top guns in the south, it’s simply to come to the club’s evaluation camp held in August and let the Rockets

introduce their program to you. “I’ve said all along this off-season, if a player thinks they can help us win a national championship, I want to meet them.” To play for the Rockets, a player must attend the club’s Summer Evaluation Camp which is being held at the Capital News Centre in Kelowna from Aug. 8 to 11. Interested parties can visit www. bchockey.net to register. If you would like more information regarding the camp, or the Rockets themselves, contact general manager David Michaud at david@ okanaganrockets.com.

Obituaries

Obituaries William Burdett Mitchell (“Bill”)

passed away peacefully on May 9th, 2013 at Summerland, B.C. A graveside service was held at Canyon View Cemetery on June 7, 2013. Bill was born to Thomas and Triphena Mitchell on August 13, 1921, in the tiny hamlet of Cupar, Saskatchewan. He was the fourth in a family of five sisters and one brother. In 1923 the family moved to a farm in Vanderhoof, B.C. where Bill lived until his graduation from high school. In his youth, he worked on farms in the area and later in a gold mine at Germansen Landing. In 1941 Bill joined the Royal Canadian Air Force and served in Canada and overseas for the duration of WWII. He trained to be an Aero Engine Mechanic and worked on P-40 fighter aircraft. In 1943 he volunteered to go overseas and after seven days on a troop ship, arrived in Liverpool England. Bill’s duties allowed him to work with several squadrons of fighter airplanes and pilots. His service ended in early 1945 when he received word of his father’s passing and he returned home to Canada. Although he didn’t often speak of his experiences in Europe, he later expressed a desire to return during peace time. Upon returning home, Bill earned his Heavy Duty Mechanics license as well as welding and electrical training, at what is now the Van Tech high school in Vancouver. He obtained employment with the Federal Department of Transport and worked at Dog Creek Airport for four years. In March of 1951, Bill was transferred to Sandspit Airport on the Queen Charlotte Islands, where he met a lovely young woman, Hazel Johnson, who would later become his wife and life partner. The couple were married in Fort St. James, and then set up residence in Prince George where their first two sons, Lane and Russell, were born. After another transfer, the Mitchells found themselves in Terrace B.C. where they welcomed a third son, Murray in 1960. Bill was the Airport Manager and the family lived on the airport which the boys found to be a wonderful place to grow up; exploring the woods and enjoying the freedom and security that came with living in a close-knit working community. The family shared picnics, fishing, camping and exploring the great outdoors – driving vacations were the staple of their summers. Bill enjoyed hunting and fishing, he was a gifted carpenter and mechanic building a power boat and holiday trailer in his spare time. The family made much use of both for their leisure and recreation. Shortly after Bill’s retirement he and Hazel moved to Chilliwack where they lived comfortably for 30 years. They had a wide circle of friends, including those at the curling rink and others who comprised their “coffee gang”. Bill loved his woodworking shop in the basement of their Chilliwack home and spent many happy hours there building cabinets, doing scrollwork as well as designing unique toys and puzzles out of wood. He was able to fashion furniture without a plan or pattern and shared his gift of woodworking with others who admired his work. He would have a real gleam in his eye when he showed you a new ‘invention’ and often his projects were the source of much laughter and joy. He also admired a sense of adventure and loved to tell a good story with a bit of humour and a happy ending. But they were not shy of leaving their home for driving vacations; this they did frequently, sometimes quite spur-of-the-moment. In the fall of 2009, Bill and Hazel relocated to Summerland to a lovely assisted living facility. They enjoyed the fellowship of other seniors there and especially loved being close to family. After Hazel’s passing in December, 2012, Bill had a difficult time navigating life on his own and the joys which he used to experience were limited. He followed- up on a long-held desire that the family had been praying for and expressed an interest and a longing to join his wife in heaven. Bill made a spiritual decision to become a Christian shortly before his passing. Above all, Bill was a family man – he cherished his sons and their families and was the source of great strength and support to all of them throughout their lives. He taught his boys the meaning of hard work, perseverance and pride in a job well done. Bill was predeceased by his parents and four sisters, as well as his loving wife Hazel. He leaves to cherish his memory his three sons; Lane (Doris) Mitchell of Summerland, B.C., Russell (Wendy) Mitchell of Burnaby, B.C., Murray Mitchell of Abbotsford B.C; two grandsons, Jared (Tiffany) Mitchell, Ryan (Krista) Mitchell; and one granddaughter, Kaylee Mitchell; six great grandchildren – Austin, Nikaela, Shyla, Mila, Jovie, & Violet; younger brother Alec (Sandy) Mitchell and sister Juanita Lindsey; brother-in-law Gerry (Ollie) Johnson and many nieces, nephews and friends. We were blessed to call him Father, Grandpa, Brother, Uncle and Friend!

Thursday, June 13, 2013 Summerland Review

Painting added to gallery collection The small, but growing Permanent Art Collection of the Summerland Community Arts Council just got bigger and better with the addition of a painting by local Summerland artist Bill Hibberd. Hibberd’s piece joins a collection that features works by Marjorie Croil, Irvine Adams, Frantisek Strouhal and others. According to Hibbert, Adams and Croil were very encouraging to him in his early days and he is excited to see his painting along side their work. He currently has an exhibit of 100 portraits at the Summerland Art Gallery. If you have not seen the show “My Tribe” it is well worth a visit. You are bound to recognize some friends and neighbours among the 100 portraits. Hibberd is also a member of the Federation of Canadian Artists — South Oka-

nagan Similkameen section. This group has a new show, “Picture This,” that opens this Saturday, June 15 with a reception from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at 133 Westminster Ave. W., Penticton. If you can’t make Saturday’s opening, the gallery will be open Tuesdays to Fridays from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Across town at Leir House many local artists, all of them members of the Federation of Canadian Artists, are having another show where you’ll see a range of styles and media, from acrylics and oils, to watercolours, encaustics, pastels and mixed media. It’s a collection full of energy and colour, and it’s called “Great Moments in Art.” There will be another opportunity to see more art from a variety of artists this

summer here in Summerland. Art Walk is returning after an absence of several years. Between July 27 and August 31, various types of art (paintings, pastels, sculpture, pottery) will be on display in stores throughout downtown Summerland. After the overwhelming success of last year’s pre-Father’s Day, Donuts for Dads event, the Summerland Library is hosting another one this Saturday, June 15 from 10 a.m. to noon

at the library. All girls and boys are invited to bring their Dads to this event. It will include the amazingly successful (and highly competitive) Paper Airplane Contest, with paper airplane making between 10 a.m. and noon, and the Big FlyOff at noon exactly. ooo David Finnis If you know of an event you feel should http://summerlandbe included in the arts.com and http:// Arts Palette or on the twitter.com/artspalArts Council’s online ette The Arts Palette calendar, please is written by David email artspalette@ Publicity summerlandarts.com Finnis, or call 250-494-8994.

Art Walk to show works

A variety of art pieces from local artists will be on display at businesses around the community this summer for Art Walk. The event runs July 27 to Aug. 31 and will include paintings, drawings, sculpture, clay work, glass work and photography. Alana Parker, coordinator of the Summerland Arts Council’s Summer Arts Program, said Art Walk should benefit the participating businesses. “It definitely brings people downtown,” she said. In addition to retail stores, art will be displayed at professional offices.
