John Arendt Summerland Review

Trista Algar, 13 years old, works on a painting at the Summerland Community Arts Centre. A weekly arts program for children 10 and older continues at the centre until Nov. 13.

A piece of public art has been suggested as an enhancement for the latest of Summerland’s roundabouts. The proposal is for a piece of artwork — possibly a sculpture — on a municipal property on the northwest corner of the oval roundabout at Prairie Valley Road and Victoria Road South. Parks and recreation director Dale MacDonald said he has talked with members of the Summerland Community Arts Council about the possibility of art at this site. “We were trying to come up with a high-profile area to put public art,” he said. The intersection, near Giant’s Head Elementary School and Summerland Montessori School, is one of the busiest in Summerland, especially at the start and end of the school day. MacDonald said the art would not be put in the centre of the roundabout since people would need to have easy access to it. Details of the art piece have not yet been determined. David Finnis, president of the Summerland Community Arts Council, said the concept appeals to the arts community. “It’s certainly something we would be pleased to be part of,” he said. “We’d certainly support the concept.” He added that the roundabout would be a good location since it receives plenty of foot traffic as well as vehicle traffic. Summerland already has public art in place elsewhere in the community. There is a sculpture near the intersection of Wharton Street and Rosedale Avenue, created in 2002. Another sculpture, from the same time, is in front of Municipal Hall on Henry Avenue. A sundial was created and included at Spirit Square, at Peach Orchard Beach. MacDonald said details about the sculpture proposal have yet to be determined.

Orchardists receive recognition by John Arendt

Apple growers from Summerland proved themselves as some of the best in Canada once again as they received honours at the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair in Toronto. The results of the competi-

tion were released on Friday. Four Summerland fruit growers received awards. Billy and Shawna Boerboom of Windmill Orchards took first place honours for Golden Delicious and second place for McIntosh. They also received

second place for Ambrosia and third for the best collection of five varieties. Steve Brown of Happy Valley Harvest received second place for Gala. Devin and Janine Jell of SunOka Fruit Farms received first

prize for Ambrosia, first for Aurora Golden Gala and second for the best collection of five varieties. Tom Kinvig won first in the Other New Varieties category for Salish. See ORCHARDIST Page 3

Orchardist strives for excellence Continued from Page 1

“The quality of the apples was excellent from all provinces this year,” said Glen Lucas, general manager of the B.C. Fruit Growers’ Association. The growers who entered the competition made the judges’ job difficult this year, and B.C. growers held their own in the competition.” Boerboom said his success came because of “a driven passion to strive to do the best possible job.” In the 1980s, he worked with his father, Wim Boerboom, on their Summerland orchard. Around 19 years ago, he took over the

operation. He said his father played a huge role in his success. “He was my mentor,” Billy Boerboom said. “He taught me what I know.” Windmill Orchard has 5.3 hectares in apples, pears and cherries. The apples were planted in the spring of 1990. “We grow the best possible quality that’s provided by the earth,” he said. In addition to his hard work, he said the conditions this year worked in their favour. While the crop was lighter than normal, the quality was excellent, he said.

al camp. Last year, several competed at the AA and AAA levels. This year, Malar said she has a goal of sending between six and 12 swimmers to that level of competition. For all the swimmers, the program teaches useful techniques they can use in the future. “It’s a skill they’ll have for the rest of their lives,” she said. In addition to the skills training and fitness benefits, the program also provides a social element for the participants. “The kids have so much fun in the pool,” she said. This month, swimmers will compete in three meets, in Shuswap, Vernon and Kelowna.

LEGALLY SPEAKING...

POLICE rEPOrt Police in Summerland enjoyed an uneventful Halloween on Thursday evening. Cpl. Bruce Haley of the Summerland RCMP detachment said there were no incidents other than some reports of fireworks. He said fireworks are regulated and require a permit from the fire department because of the safety issues and fire issues involved. Few fireworks permits are issued during a year.

enrolled last year. This year, enrolment is around 110 swimmers. “Almost every single age group is almost at capacity,” she said. The increased interest in the swim club means Malar had to start a waiting list near the start of this year’s swimming season. Six children were on the list. As a result of rescheduling and moving some swimmers into new categories, Malar was able to accommodate all. She said a few of the swimmers may compete at high levels in the future, possibly at a national or Olympic level. Two swimmers recently participated at a Swim BC region-

Legal services are no different than any other professional services, except that the outcome of a legal problem can have a very profound effect on a person's life. At Bell, Jacoe & Company we encourage people to shop around for their legal services. Ask your friends and neighbours who they use and if they were happy with the result. Does that law firm win the cases they handle? It is one thing to advertise expertise in an area of law and a very different thing to obtain a good result in that matter. Many sources, including the BC Law Society, can provide helpful information in choosing a lawyer. Why would a law firm suggest such a thing you ask? The continuing confidence and trust that so many citizens of Summerland and the surrounding area have shown in choosing our firm for their legal needs tells us that we are providing the kind of professional, confidential and considerate legal services that you want. We are proud of our reputation in the community and thankful for your support. We look forward to the challenges that the future will bring and to providing the same expert level of affordable legal services that you have come to expect from Bell, Jacoe & Company.

EDITORIAL

our pick

A space for art Throughout its history, Summerland has had a strong artistic presence. Some of the visual art, film, drama and music which has received international acclaim also has a local connection. Adding a piece of public art, as has been proposed, would be one way of paying tribute to Summerland’s artistic community. For this reason alone, it makes sense to examine the idea of setting up a sculpture at the new roundabout at Prairie Valley Road and Victoria Road South. There are already several pieces of public art in Summerland, including the sculpture near the Summerland Museum, the sundial near Spirit Square at Peach Orchard Beach and the sculpture in front of Municipal Hall on Henry Avenue. The sculpture on Wharton Street has become a landmark for some. It is highly visible and easily identifiable.A piece of artwork at the newest roundabout could have a similar effect. However, before committing to another piece of public art, it would be worth considering if there would be more effective ways to promote the arts here. The Arts Council uses a municipally-owned building on Main Street, at a minimal charge.This space arrangement is good, but the Arts Council still struggles to operate the gallery and numerous arts programs on an incredibly tight budget. Grant funding for the arts is in short supply and there is no guarantee it will remain in place in the long term. Committing to a sculpture or another piece of public art is far easier than committing to the operation of the Arts Council. The sculpture would be a one-time project, while funding for arts programs is an ongoing need. From the level of activity in the various arts programs, it is obvious this is a community which cares deeply about art. The question is how to best meet the community’s desire for art.

Several Summerland orchardists proved they are among the best in the country as they received high honours at the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair in Toronto. Billy and Shawna Boerboom, Steve Brown, Devin and Janine Jell and Tom Kinvig all care deeply about the fruit they produce at their orchards. It is good to see them get recognition for their hard work.

Help the hospital, get a flu shot VICTORIA – I got my influenza shot this week, paid for out of pocket since I don’t qualify for any of the higherrisk groups provided with free immunization. A reminder to take this simple health precaution came in October when a labour arbitrator ruled that it is a reasonable employment requirement Tom Fletcher for health care workers to either get the current immunization or mask up in patient care areas. Quiet advocacy by Provincial Health Officer Dr. Perry Kendall has paid off. Staff, doctors, outside contractors and visitors will have to put patients first. Health care unions pressed a grievance on behalf of members who insist they have a right to refuse immunization and increase exposure to patients. They have apparently run up the white flag. “We will be telling our members to comply with the new policy, or risk being fired,” said an overly dramatic Val Avery, president of the Health Sciences Association. HSA lawyers led the grievance, supported by the Hospital Employees’ Union and the B.C. Nurses’ Union. Avery said the union will continue to urge its members to take advantage of on-site flu shot clinics. That’s right, like most provincial employees, they all

get immunization that is not only free but administered at work. Kendall announced the regulation last year, after finding that 40 per cent of employees in long-term care were not getting the current influenza vaccine, and the rate of immunization was declining. Their objections make no sense. Aside from the self-serving “rights” argument, they complain that the annual flu vaccine isn’t effective enough. The formula is developed by international effort to track the dominant strains that emerge as winter rolls around the world. Kendall says a poor match results in about 40 per cent immunity, and a good match reaches 90 per cent. At the risk of stating the obvious, he notes that even 40 per cent is better than nothing. After two weeks of expert testimony, arbitrator Robert Diebolt, a retired UBC law professor, wrote as follows: “It is indisputable that influenza can be a serious, even fatal, disease. Immunization also indisputably provides a measure of protection to health care workers and I have found that their immunization reduces influenza transmission to patients. “I have also concluded that there is a real and serious patient safety issue and the policy is a helpful program to reduce patient risk.” The B.C. Centre for Disease Control calculates that if all

health care workers would get immunized, the risk to patients would be reduced nearly 50 per cent. The Ministry of Health warns: “you can spread influenza for 24 hours before you have any symptoms.” What would cause educated health care workers to defy common sense? A hint is provided by professional union promoter and publicist Bill Tieleman, who railed about the decision on his blog. This regulation is inspired by big bad U.S. health care corporations that would rather impose immunization than pay for sick days, Tieleman asserts. Ah, so an infected health care employee should wander the wards until symptoms emerge, and then go home for a few days of paid rest. What a perfectly stupid idea! Last week BCNU president Debra McPherson was warning about “chaos” at the new Surrey Memorial emergency ward, her latest of a career of media protests. The big new facility is already overflowing, and more beds and more staff are needed, stat! Perhaps if better preventive measures were taken by nurses, doctors and other staff, this chronic “chaos” would be reduced and these unions would have more credibility.

culls

In the weeks leading up to the festive season, there are numerous drives and initiatives to help those in need within our community. While we applaud such efforts, it is disheartening to be reminded that poverty is an issue in Summerland. Initiatives such as the Toys and Toonies for Tots and Teens program, which raised more than $5,000 last year, are inspiring and they are making a difference. Still, we long for the day when such initiatives are no longer needed.

No bad behaviour on Halloween Dear Editor: I have been a resident of Summerland for 25 years and raised my children in this community. On Halloween

night this year, I was obligated to attend an event that prevented me from being home to greet the trick or treaters. I decided to place

a bowl of chocolates on my porch with a sign reading “honour system, please take two.” I then left to attend a meeting. When I

The early years

returned late in the evening, I found that the bowl was in tact and half full of treats. There was no sign of any bad behaviour

by any of the kids that visited my porch. I want to tell you that as a person who spent 99 per cent of his career working with persons

involved in the corrections system, it was a very uplifting finding, that reaffirmed my belief in the inherent good that is present in the

vast majority of our kids. Kudos to our fine youngsters in our community. Kevin Hillman Summerland

Dear Editor: The Canadian Armed Forces have never had to defend Canada from foreign invaders, and they have never had to lay their lives on the line to protect our way of life, or retaliate for an attack on our great country. No Canadian soldier has ever died to protect Canadian democracy or Canadians’ basic human rights. These are the things our Armed Forces have never done, and I am very

proud of the things they have never had to do. I am also very proud of what our Armed Forces have done. They have liberated countries from Nazi control, kept the peace in war torn regions, and come to the aid of our friends and allies in their time of need. The Canadian Forces have played major roles in many important conflicts around the world such as the battle at Passchendaele in Bel-

gium during World War I, the D-Day invasion of Juno Beach in France during World War II, the Battle of Kapyong in Korea, protecting Kuwait from Iraqi invasion during the Gulf War, and aiding our neighbours in their hour of need after Sept. 11, 2001 in bringing down the Taliban and AlQaeda. Another thing the Canadian Forces have never done is start a war, but they sure help end them. Canada is a great

friend to have, and when our friends and neighbours need us, our men and women in uniform are there to answer the call to help. And even though the Canadian Forces have never had to protect Canadians from the forces of evil, they have most certainly protected our friends and fought for what’s right. For that, we should be thankful and very proud. Craig Bloom Summerland

Dear Editor: One thing I’ve noticed up here or wherever I’ve lived or visited is that there can be conflicts between special interest groups in an area. A large conflict brews up here between cyclists, motorists and pedestrians as well as another one between irresponsible dog handlers, responsible dog handlers and those who don’t own or are afraid or nervous of dogs. First of all, only motorists presently are licensed and have to take exams to be allowed to drive on the roads. Cyclists and pedestrians are not. Perhaps it would be worthwhile to introduce a course in

elementary or high school that covers all three perspectives and includes training and information on how to be responsible in all three roles? It may be too late to change the ways of people set in their ways, like teenagers, young adults, middle aged adults and seniors but surely young kids can be helped to understand that it is in their best interests to be safe in each of these roles? Increased penalties should be brought about for drivers, cyclists and pedestrians who break traffic regulations or cause accidents. It’s often hard, to impossible, to track down escaped cyclists or pedestrians therefore there is a

slight argument for increased use of traffic cameras (as distasteful as that suggestion is to me). Deaths as a result of accidents and negligence should result in permanent loss of driving/cycling privileges. As for the dog owner/handler community, enforcement of bylaws and education of the ignorant

appear the greatest issues but what can one do about that? Education/training prior to the ownership of a pet should be a law but is that enforceable? Violations should result in harsher penalties to the point of the pet being rescued and placed in a responsible home. Patrick Longworth Okanagan Falls

In 1914 Willie Gallaugher posed for a photo with his mother, Mary Jane, and his sister, Minnie, just prior to his departure for Europe to fight in World War One. He never came home. On Remembrance Day we commemorate the brave men and women who fought for our freedom, many of them paying the ultimate price. It’s also fitting to remember the people who stood behind our troops; the friends and loved ones who waited and prayed. On Nov. 11 at 11 a.m. join us at the cenotaph in Memorial Park as we gather to remember.

Skin Sensitivity and Jewellery Are your ears itchy or sore from your favourite earrings? Chances are, you are probably having a reaction to nickel. Skin sensitivity to nickel is similar to skin sensitivity to poison ivy. Both cause contact dermatitis. Nickel is so widely used in jewellery and watches that reactions are quite common. Gold contains nickel, but gold of 18 to 24 karat purity is less likely to cause a rash, and so is stainless steel, surgical steel or sterling silver. At Pharmasave we carry Bio Care earrings made from gold-plated surgical steel. They contain no toxic metals and are guaranteed non-allergenic. We also carry Ear Secrets, a line of jewellery that is also lead and nickel free. If you have a pair of earrings you adore but can’t wear due to discomfort, a coat of clear nail polish can make them wearable for awhile, but this application usually needs to be repeated at each wearing. I am always happy to answer any questions or concerns you may have.

Prison plan progressing In March of 2013, contracts were signed between BC Corrections and the Osoyoos Indian Band to build the new Okanagan Correctional Centre at the Senkulmen Business Park on Highway 97. Estimated at approximately $200 million, the construction project will be designed to achieve Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Gold certification. The 378-cell, highsecurity facility is the centerpiece of BC Corrections’ secondphase capital expansion plan and when completed, the new centre will more than double corrections capacity in B.C.’s Interior. The OCC is expected to generate significant economic benefits for the region, including the creation of up to 500 direct and 500 indirect construction jobs, as well as new, full-time correctional positions when the centre opens in the fall of 2016. In addition, there will be a number of contracted staff on site such as nurses, doctors, dentists, counsellors, food service workers and trades personnel. At this time there are three teams being considered for the construction of the

Chamber Corner

Christine Petkau Centre. In September 2013, Partnerships B.C. approached the South Okanagan Chamber of Commerce to develop a centralized data base for subcontractors and potential employees to register their interest in participating in the project. The South Okanagan Chamber of Commerce has now developed this site. The site is designed to maximize the economic opportunities flowing from this construction project now and in the future, it will also provide relevant news and notifications of other major projects in the region. Businesses that are a South Okanagan and surrounding area based supplier of goods and services or those seeking employment opportunities regarding the Okanagan Correctional Centre project are invited to register

at www.sochamber. ca and follow the Business Registry link. The link will also be available on the Summerland Chamber website at www.summerlandchamber.com under the Business Resources tab. This business registry is a unique opportunity for Okanagan businesses and individuals to be seen, contacted and engaged by major project leaders. For the OCC project, the business registry will be provided to the three proponent teams on a bi-weekly basis. Once a preferred bidding team is selected in early 2014, the business registry will continue to be sent to them on a regular basis, up until the end of construction. Currently, the OCC project is on target with construction expected to start in 2014 and project completion by the fall of 2016. 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.

Trail society formed Organization will work to create first phase of path along lakefront

A new trail group, The Valley Bikeway Development Society, has been formed to spearhead the creation of a 1.2-kilometre lakeside trail in Summerland. Phase 1 of the new trail would extend from Lakeshore Drive to the Summerland Beach RV Park (formerly Illahie Beach Campground). Phase 2 will see the path continuing through Trout Creek to Sun-Oka Beach and along the lakeshore to Penticton. Organizers hope Phase 1 will start this spring. To date, approximately $40,000 has

been donated to the society to get the project off to a start. The Okanagan Similkameen Parks Society has contributed $5,000 and the Summerland Rotary Club has contributed $15,000.

ering the cost of all the engineered drawings estimated to be approximately $20,000 and is represented in the society by Dale MacDonald, director of parks and recreation for the municipality.

“We are extremely pleased by the significant leadership and support that the Summerland Rotary Club has given to this exciting project in its early stages.”

Summerlanders welcomed the new scheduled transit service by taking the bus around the community and to Penticton. The service started on Monday, Oct. 28. Within the first three days, officials at B.C. Transit in Victoria were amazed with the local rider activity. “We’re really encouraged,” said

Meribeth Burton of B.C. Transit. “We’re seeing 50 passengers a day.” The bus offers service to and from Penticton four times a day, Monday to Friday. Until the end of the year, it is free. In January, the rate will be $2 for a trip within Summerland and $4 for a trip to Penticton.

Open burning registration numbers issued

Current weather conditions make it safer for private landowners, Wildfire Management Branch personnel and industry partners to reduce wildfire risks by burning piles of wood debris. More than 1,690 burn registration numbers have been issued in the Kamloops Fire Centre in recent weeks. These burning projects may occur until open fire restrictions come into effect again next spring. Although residents adjacent to burning operations may see and smell smoke, burning is permitted only on days when the venting index indicates there is good ventilation and smoke will disperse quickly. Anyone conducting an open burn must comply with the Ministry of Environment’s Waste Management Act and open burning smoke control regulation and they must first check the venting index at: www.

bcairquality.ca Anyone wishing to light a Category 3 open fire must first obtain a burn registration number by calling 1-888-797-1717. Category 3 fires are fires that: o burn material piled more than two metres in height or three metres in width o burn stubble or grass over more than 0.2 hectares o burn more than two piles of any size o burn one or more windrows. When a member of the public reports seeing smoke, burn registration numbers are used to identify active and compliant burn operations so Wildfire Management Branch officials do not unnecessarily investigate the smoke report as a possible wildfire. Information on open burning, burn categories and current fire prohibitions is available on the Wildfire Management Branch’s website at bcwildfire.ca/ hprScripts/WildfireNews/Bans.asp

Responding to the senate scandal Hearing from constituents is in my view a critically important part of elected office. Many citizens take the time to offer constructive advice that can help public office holders do a more effective job in representing constituents. From my own perspective I greatly value the comments and feedback that I receive back each week in response to my weekly reports. In last week’s discussion I raised the topic of the senate and in particular recent efforts to suspend a number of senators without pay. I also shared some of the feedback I had received on this subject that was overwhelming outrage as most citizens feel strongly that senators should be held to the same standards as everyday citizens.

One criticism I heard from a number of individuals is that I did not firmly state my position on this subject. Having since reread last week’s report I agree with my critics in that I did not clearly state my stance on this issue as clearly as I should have and in this week’s report I would like to remedy that. For the record, I fully support the suspension of these senators without pay and while the majority of citizens I have heard from also strongly support this position, there are a few who disagree. The argument most frequently made from those who support the senators not being suspended suggest that “due process” should be the guiding factor. The challenge with that from my experi-

ence “due process” as it pertains to elected officials spending tax dollars usually amounts to finding a loophole to justify an expense arguing that it did not technically break any rules and as such there should be no consequences. I should also add this is not a partisan issue; there have been many examples over the years from members representing all major political parties that have abused tax dollars in expense claims. The message that I hear loudly from citizens and what I believe needs to be understood in Ottawa is that this issue is not about a procedural argument finding a way to suggest a rule was broken or not. This is an issue of trust- the public trust. When Canadians elect fellow citizens to represent them

in government they expect tax dollars to be respected and used fairly and ethically when it comes to the expenses of public office. No different than I believe citizens expect elected officials to act honourably, refrain from using profanity, to show up for work and as legislators to not break the law. For the vast majority of citizens I hear from, if they were to misuse use tax dollars or abuse the funds from an employer they would expect serious consequences for that behaviour. This same expectation extends not just to the senate but to all elected officials. Last year I posted an annual accountability report. In this report I attempted to provide as much information as possible on a variety of different subjects including travel,

Ottawa RepORt

Dan Albas sponsored travel, meetings and other activities related to my position as a Member of Parliament. After doing this report I received a strong level of support from citizens who appreciated the information and effort for increased transparency. As a result of that feedback I am currently in the process of preparing what will become an annual accountability report summariz-

ing my actions and expenses over the past year. Although there is no formal requirement for a Member of Parliament to issue annual accountability reports beyond what is already publicly available, I believe increased transparency helps to maintain the integrity of our democratic process. While Canadians may differ on what policies will best serve the public interest, such as more free trade versus protectionism or perhaps the desirability of lower versus higher taxes, there is one thing we agree

on: the need for elected officials to serve in a way that respects the public trust. It is my intention to have my annual accountability report released within the next few weeks and I will welcome your questions and feedback. I can be reached via email at dan.albas@ parl.gc.ca or by phone at 1-800-6658711. I look forward to hearing from you. Dan Albas is the Member of Parliament for OkanaganCoquihalla.

Sneak Peak

Ferguson was raised on a dairy farm in Langley B.C. He claims he was a poor student, because he would rather have been outside playing ball than sitting at a desk. As a young man during the depression he worked his way across the prairies as a farm hand. “Everything that had to be done on a farm I did. I rode horses, drove tractors, worked on thrashing gangs. I even worked with Wilf Carter once. He sang and yodelled and hollered all the time he was thrashing,” explained Ferguson. During the Second World War, Ferguson served in the Canadian Army as a cook, “And I was a damn good one at that,” he said proudly. Together he and his wife Flora, whose nickname was “Bubbles because she was so bubbly,” shared 61 years of marriage and raised six children. They moved to Summerland in 1967, buying and operating the Cedarbrook Motel. The last 10 years of his working life Ferguson drove school bus. Reminiscing he said, “My wife died

VICTORIA – The B.C. government has reached out to U.S. states and the domestic clean energy industry in an effort to keep its greenhouse gas reduction goals in sight. Energy Minister Bill Bennett hopes to have details out by the end of the year for a “modest” clean energy program he promised to private power developers at a conference in Vancouver this week. With BC Hydro projecting an electricity surplus in the near future, there won’t be another clean power call any time soon for run-of-river, wind and

other producers, Bennett said in an interview. A priority will be energy development for aboriginal communities, which have used small power production to get off diesel generators and to generate new income. The commitment comes as BC Hydro continues weeding out proposals that haven’t delivered on power purchase contracts, in order to cut down on the utility’s growing debt. The government also signed an agreement this week with western U.S. states called the Pacific Coast Collaborative, to extend efforts to put a regional price on carbon.

Summerland Review Thursday, November 7, 2013

Goals set for coming year Municipal council has set its goals and objectives for the coming year, but the list looks much like the goals which had been put in place previously. The latest goals document is an updated version of the goals and objectives adopted a year ago. Six goals have been identified. o Work towards establishing Summerland as a sustainable community

o Assist the social development of the community o Be a leader in the protection of the environment o Assist in the economic strengthening of the community o Ensure the District of Summerland operations are effective and efficient o Ensure the District’s limited financial resources are focussed on council priorities. While the goals

are close to last year’s goals, Mayor Janice Perrino said the details have shifted. Last year, the upgrade work on Prairie Valley Road

of the road upgrade and other significant projects in recent years have added up for the municipality. “We have to work at getting our finan-

cial house into a better place,” she added. This year, because that project has been

completed, the municipality will take on some small jobs. One of the next upgrade projects in Summerland involves road work and water system work in Garnett Valley. Both have been identified as priorities, but the projects must be done together, Perrino said. “Garnett Valley Road is going to be a huge challenge,” she said.

Considering the impact of war on art As we prepare to pause for a minute’s silence on the 11th Hour of the 11th day of the 11th month, it is perhaps a good time to reflect on war and its impact on art. The most obvious impact of war on art involves the destruction, loss or theft of art. Think of recent rebel attacks on Islamic art and cultural artifacts in Mali. Or of the destruc-

destruction of the First and Second World Wars. Art has long been viewed as a “prize of war” with the theft of art by the Nazis during the Second World War being a notable example. However, art has also been used to document war. Both the horror and the drudgery. The Canadian War Museum has a collection of over 13,000 works which both document and help

convey the feelings of those involved. The First World War collection, which consists of almost 1,000 works by over 100 artists, not only documents Canada’s involvement in “the war to end all wars”, but also was a major influence in the development of Canadian art including the well known Group of Seven. Both A.Y. Jackson and Frederick Varley documented the war

along the Western Front while future members Arthur Lismer and Frank Johnston created works depicting life on the Home Front. Anyone following the recent scandal in the Senate will hopefully have noticed that the walls of the Red Chamber are adorned by eight large murals. These large murals have been in the Canadian Senate since 1921 and depict the destruction of that war plus troops preparing to leave for the front lines as well as a mobile veterinary unit. Those who served in wartime and did not return are remembered not just in paintings, but by sculpture and stonework. Think of the beautiful memorial at Vimy Ridge and the National War Memorial in Ottawa. In Summerland we now have, in addition to the cenotaph in Memorial Park, eight street banners depicting men from our community who lost their lives in the First World War. May all these paintings, sculptures, banners and memorials help us to reflect on the horror and tragedy of war and ensure that “with the going down of the sun and in the morning we do remember them.” ooo If you know of an event you feel should be included in the Arts Palette or on the Arts Council’s online calendar, please email artspalette@summerlandarts.com or call: 250-404-3225.

Remembrance banners

This is the second year of the Summerland Remembrance banner program. This project was initiated by Summerland’s Community Cultural Development Committee (CCDC). The intent is to create one remembrance banner for each soldier on the Summerland cenotaph. Eight banners have been completed and installed. There are photographs of 14 World War I and 25 World War II soldiers still to be placed on banners. The cost of one banner is $175. If you wish to assist with this project please call 250-494-9030.

Steam add two weekend hockey wins The Summerland Steam added a pair of wins over the weekend. On Saturday, the team travelled to

Princeton to face the Posse in a 4-2 decision. After a Princeton power play goal early in the first period, the Steam responded with two goals to take the lead. At 11:43, Rylan Sideroff scored with assists from Austin Lee and Cooper Holick. At 10:29, Paulsen Lautard scored on a power play

with assists from Sam Nigg and Josh DaCosta. The Steam reinforced this lead in the second period with a goal at 17:45. Reid Brown scored with assists from Olli Dickson and Braden Saretsky. In the third period, Princeton scored to narrow the gap, but the Steam responded with an empty net goal with 59 seconds remaining. The goal was scored by Kienan

Scott with the assist by Lautard. On Sunday, the Steam hosted the Beaver Valley Nitehawks, playing to a 5-3 win. Beaver Valley took a quick lead at 19:42. The Steam then added three power play goals. At 15:43, DaCosta scored with assists from Brown and Scott. At 15:01, Nigg scored, assisted by Dylan Burton and Dickson.

Dickson then scored with just five seconds remaining in the period. DaCosta and Scott had the assist. In the second period, the Nitehawks scored early on a power play, but the Steam responded at 10:33 when Easton Bodeux scored unassisted. In the third period, Paulsen Lautard scored at 15:30, assisted by Daylan Robertson and Alex Williams.

Bantams win twice The Summerland Bantam House hockey team had two stellar home games this past weekend. On Saturday they faced off against Penticton 2. Penticton dominated the first period but Summerland rallied in the second period with goals by Cory Berekoff unassisted, Sean Wilson assisted by Cory Berekoff, and Steven Sauer assisted by Kade Kozak. Third period goals were scored by Dawson Handfield assisted by Brett Wilson, and Tristan Preston scored his first goal of the year on an empty net assisted by Steven Sauer. The final score was 5-2 for Sum-

merland. On Sunday Bantam House played Kelowna 3. The first goal of the game went to Will Gray assisted by Kade Kozak, and the second goal in the first period was scored by Remy Houde with assists from Gage McKelvie and Lovelesh Anand. Kelowna fought back in the second but fell to Summerland in the third period. Lovlesh Anand scored his first goal of the year unassisted, Brett Wilson scored assisted by Cory Berekoff, and the last goal of the game went to Kade Kozak unassisted. Summerland defeated Kelowna 5-1.

Peewee Reps win one, lose one The Summerland Peewee Rep Jets took their travelling road show to Revelstoke and Kamloops this weekend. The first game saw them show their road weariness by coming out flat, and falling behind early to the well rested Revelstoke team. Although they battled hard, they were handed an 8-4 loss. Goals coming from birthday boy Moreno Coco with a pair, and Spencer Bitte also with two. Assists went to Jason Scherban, Simon Paul, Logan Bubar, Coco and Bitte. In Sunday’s match

they came up against a hungry Kamloops squad in search of their first win of the season. The Jets came out strong and found themselves with an early lead only to squander it late in the second period. In the third period with less than a minute left in a 4-4 deadlock, head coach Blaine “Spike” Brennan, playing a hunch, put out a line consisting of rugged, hard-nosed winger Mitch Gove, paired with elusive playmaking centre Rylan Campbell and rookie Spencer Bitte. In a mad scramble in front of the Kam-

loops net minder, the puck squirted to Bitte who snapped a shot past a bewildered goaltender for a thrilling 5-4 victory. When asked about the goal Bitte said, “I just shot it and it went in.” Also hitting the score sheet were Liam Trewhitt with two goals and a helper, Mitch Gove with a goal and an assist,Jason Scherban one goal and Rylan Campbell one assist. The goaltending tandem of Andrew Rolston and Ben Bowyer split the games with Rolston picking up the win.

Summerland Review Thursday, November 7, 2013

Toy drive funds sought Gifts given to needy children and teens in Summerland The Summerland Fire Department and CIBC staff, along with many helpers, are once again sponsoring their annual drive for toys and toonies. Organizers want new, unwrapped gifts

and toonies to purchase new gifts for needy children and teens in Summerland. Staff at the CIBC will do the shopping and sorting of the gifts. The gifts will then be distributed by the Summerland Food Bank. Donations will be accepted at the fire hall and the Summerland CIBC branch

until Dec. 13. George Pugh of the Summerland Fire Department said the community has been generous in supporting the toy drive. Last year, the drive brought in more than $5,000. A pancake breakfast, held the Saturday after the Festival of Lights, raised more than $2,000.

“People are great with their generosity,” he said. Several Summerland service organizations have also donated money for the drive. While the gift donations are welcomes, Pugh said the money donations are important since it is often difficult to find appropriate gifts for teens.

Kinsmen fund upgrade work

• Stunning Custom Built Home in Trout Creek • 3 Bedroom plus Den and Huge Bonus Room

The Summerland Kinsmen Club has done it again. The local service club with a history of service in Summerland has completed another major project. The club completed their first playground project in 1972 when over a four-year period they built the original Kinsmen Park on Lakeshore Drive. The latest Kinsmen playground project was the addition of new playground equipment at Julia Street Park.

• Exquisite Finishing Throughout

The new equipment, geared for the seven and under age bracket, compliments the existing Kompan playground equipment that was also originally installed by the Summerland Kinsmen Club in the mid 1990s. The project started in June under Kinsmen member Stacey Nodge who oversaw construction of the building of the equipment with completion by the end of July. The construction of this project was
