Overcoming a doctor shortage

NEW RUTLAND PLAYGROUND KEVINPARNELL/CAPITAL NEWS

When Diana Hilliard and her husband Joe decided to move to Kelowna for their retirement years and to be closer to their daughter, it was not without a little hesitation due to the doctor shortage in the Central Okanagan. They had been with the same family doctor in their Southern Ontario hometown for 15 years before deciding to make the move west and they had heard finding a family doctor wouldn’t be easy. “We knew there was a problem well in advance. Our daughter had warned us that she had trouble finding a physician,” said Diana, 66. “I don’t think I really grasped just how bad it was until I got here and it seemed like the only recourse was I was going to have to sit down and start phoning doctors. It’s difficult. “You are cold-calling to find out who is accepting new patients and you don’t know what kind of medicine the doctor likes to practice. “I was really not looking forward to the process. There were listings online about who is accepting new doctors but if you searched Kelowna you got zero hits.” What Hilliard did stumble upon when she was searching for who would take new patients is a relatively new service called A GP For Me. Run by the Central Okanagan Division of Family Practice—a service funded by physicians as

Non-profit organizations, the divisions run many programs, from recruiting doctors to holding different clinics and physician support. A GP For Me has three different mobile assessment units set up in Kelowna: At the Mission, Parkinson and Rutland activity centres. The program sees folks over the age of 65 who don’t have a doctor, takes the patient’s entire

Retiring MD says health care model needs to be reformed kparnell@kelownacapnews.com

More than a third of the family physicians currently practicing medicine in the Central Okanagan are expected to retire within the next nine years. That was one of the findings of a survey done by the Central Okanagan Division of Family Practice

when it opened its doors in the fall of last year. And with doctor shortages right across the country, it’s becoming more and more difficult for retiring doctors to find someone to take over their practice. That’s why there is talk of a new way of delivering medicine to people as opposed to the way things

Improving health care for the elderly SHORTAGE FROM A3 strictly with folks who are over the age of 65. The reason is that seniors are the highest users of the medical system. Pairing seniors up with doctors as they move through their retirement years and as they use the medical system more and more, not only helps the patients and the doctors, it can save the system money, said Godwin. “At Kelowna General Hospital the elderly population accounts for the most inpatients,” she said. “We’re looking at how we can improve the

overall care for the elderly. We did a very thorough assessment phase for the project and we felt the population that would most benefit from being connected with a family physician was people over the age of 65.” For Diana Hilliard, finding the A GP For Me program was like a gift. Instead of having to coldcall doctors to try and find a family physician for herself and her husband, they instead went to one

of the mobile assessment units first and were given a thorough exam and patient history. “They took all of our medical history which allowed them to make a thoughtful connection for us,” she said. “Trying to find the right fit (with a new doctor) is difficult at the best of times. Being new to a community, it was going to be a crapshoot. But they couldn’t have done a better job. The doctor they paired us

with is absolutely perfect. He’s a lovely man and I think this is a really smart way to pair doctors and patients. Everybody was so nice. There wasn’t a step along the way where we felt uncomfortable.” After arriving in Kelowna in early March, only a short six weeks later the Hilliard’s were able to get in to see their new family doctor. It was a huge sense of relief for the retired couple. “It’s a comfort level,”

RETIRING FROM A3 four family practices are jammed full, doctors have put a proposal into the B.C. Ministry of Health, through Interior Health, for a different model for health care where family doctors would not always have to be a first-stop as you enter the health care system. “The trend everywhere, not just in Canada, is to completely change the face of primary care and go to a multi-disciplinary clinic to provide more comprehensive care,” said Dr. Tim Murphy, with the Lake Country Family Practice where three of

five doctors are over the age of 58. “Instead of the physician being the only first point of primary care, other health care professionals who are expert in their area, can become the first contact.” This system would free up doctors to deal with patients and allow people direct contact with other health care providers, as opposed to having to first visit their general practitioner. Murphy said among those health experts would be dietitians, nurse practitioners, diabetic nurses, counselors, pharmacists, social

workers and more. “It’s gone that way in other areas and it has been successful,” said Murphy, pointing to country’s like Sweden. “If you look at the baby boomers and the number of people getting older, there are not enough family doctors.” Murphy called the proposal very in-depth and they are pushing hard to find a solution after nearly three years of advertising and recruiting has failed to find even one doctor willing to relocate to Lake Country to start a practice. Interior Health says the proposal is being

looked at. “Interior Health is currently working with the Lake Country physicians and community partners to ensure we meet their future medical needs,” said Dr. Curtis Bell, the executive medical director of community and residential services at Interior Health. “We are developing a joint proposal for a health centre which will be reviewed by community physicians, other community health providers, community partners and community members.” Dr. Murphy said the change would take some time, but in the long run something needs to happen with doctor shortages across the country. And he said doctors alone can’t make it happen. “This is a change in philosophy and a huge investment for the community,” he said. “It has to be some sort of combined process with physicians, Interior Health, the municipality, businesses in the community.” “This is not an investment that physicians alone can do. There has to be many partners to make this work.” @capnewsports.ca

Saving water with every flush Barry Gerding bgerding@kelownacapnews.com

A campaign for local residents to save water with every toilet flush will be launched Saturday in a Kelowna area neighbourhood. Open For Change, a local non-profit social enterprise, will have volunteers canvassing door-to-door to hand out plastic bottles filled with sand, encouraging homeowners to place the bottles inside their toilet tanks to displace the use of water with every flush. Michael Lavigne, the driving force behind Open For Change, says the amount of water saved from 500 households is about 50,750 litres per week by following this simple step. The neighbourhood canvassed will be roughly between Richter Street, Clement Avenue, Gordon Drive and Highway 97. The project will mark the completion of a

Mayor to marshall Gay Pride March Kelowna Mayor Colin Basran has agreed to serve as the grand marshall for the 2015 Gay Pride March. The march starts at 11 a.m. on Aug. 15, from Stuart Park to City Park. The march is part of the Okanagan Pride Festival organized by the Okanagan Pride Society. Organizers are looking for a record turnout with the increase in awareness of equality issues, in particular the US Supreme Court’s recent ruling on the legality of marriage for gay couples. “I believe in an inclusive and accepting city,” said Basran. “I want Kelowna to be a community where people are free to be who they were born to be, without discrimination “We are delighted to have our mayor take this significant role in leading our Pride March this year,” added Okanagan Pride Society president Wilbur Turner. “Colin has always been a vocal supporter of what we stand for as an organization. Even in 2015…we do not take this support for granted.”

which can cause problems for the toilet,” Lavigne explained. “The beauty of the plastic bottles is they take hundreds of years to disintegrate in a landfill. They won’t leach or decompose stored in a dark space. Put a cap on it and it can sit in your toilet tank forever helping to conserve water. “ Lavigne said the bottle canvassing will take place on Saturday between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. Along with the bottles, volunteers will also be handing out information about water saving

initiative will serve as a launch pad for the idea to be adopted across Kelowna, with everyone who places a sand-filled bottle in their toilet tank to take a selfie and post it online to develop a social media following. The concept behind the sand in the bottle idea is that it requires less water to fill up the tank. “The plastic pop bottles are the best thing for this because, using rocks or a brick as an alternative, both of those things will start to disintegrate over time in the tank and get into the water stream

campaign that started last month when volunteers conducted a drive to collect 1,000 bottles— glass or plastic—and then fill each one up with sand. “This is a project that has been about four months in the planning to get to this point,” explained Lavigne. “We chose this particular area to do it because it is a large residential area and our headquarters, the Artisan House on Lawrence Avenue, is also part of the neighbourhood.” Lavigne hopes the

‘Beast’ steals from car filled with people Always be aware that thieves are opportunists. They look for any opportunity when the people around them have their guard down. Enjoy your summer, but stay aware.

To the editor: I want to warn residents going to the beaches this summer about something that just happened to me. I live in Kelowna and was hoping to attend Ribfest in Penticton at 5:30 July 4 with my mom, my daughter and her friend, but was unable to because some young guy on a black bike wearing a black hat and shirt stole my purse (i.e. my entire life) right out of the back of my vehicle, distracting my daughter by tossing her brush out of the car first while I was in the washroom.

Continued diligence needed on fire safety There’s no escaping the MLA’s Report reality of the wildfire situation in our province STEVE right now. THOMSON Evacuation orders and alerts have people scrambling to safety or preparing themselves to do so. Smoke is filling the skies, even in parts of B.C. that don’t normally see much fire activity. Folks here in Kelowna might be used to the sight and smell of summer smoke, but in places like the Lower Mainland, it’s an eerie and unusual experience. No matter where you live in B.C., your help is needed to prevent even more wildfire activity. The hot, dry weather conditions continue to present challenges to our firefighting crews, and the hazard rating remains ‘extreme’ in many areas. Though it may seem a tiresome message, we can’t caution people enough to be extremely careful out there. That carelessly-tossed cigarette butt can put people’s lives and homes in danger. Campfire

bans have also been implemented across the province, and it’s imperative that people follow the rules. If you see a wildfire or suspicious activity that could cause one, call 1-800-663-5555 or *5555 on your cell. You can also report online at www. bcwildfire.ca. Those who fail to abide by the Wildfire Act, including open burning restrictions, can face a $345 fine. Anyone who causes damage to Crown forest or grass land through arson or recklessness can be fined up to $1 million or spend up to three years in prison. You’re also encouraged to look after your own health, given that some regions have seen air quality advisories issued. If you see or smell smoke in the air, it’s probably best to avoid strenuous outdoor activities-- especially for those of you with chronic underlying medical conditions. Staying indoors and in air-conditioned spaces helps to reduce your exposure to fine particulate. Exposure is particularly a concern for infants, the elderly and those who have underlying respiratory conditions like asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or heart disease. You can check the status of your area at www.bcairquality.

ca. All of these measures help support the firefighting crews and first responders, who are working tirelessly to keep people and property safe during this challenging time. I’d like to thank the dedicated men and women from B.C. and Ontario who are putting their own lives at risk on the front lines. This wildfire season has already claimed the life of one member of our firefighting family. John Joe Phare, a contract tree faller, was killed while working on the Old Sechelt Mine wildfire. I’d like to extend my deepest sympathies to his family, friends, and many colleagues. This tragedy serves as a reminder of the inherent dangers associated with fighting wildfires—as well as the need for all British Columbians to do their utmost to prevent them in the first place. Please do your part. Report wildfires and remember that campfires, open fires and fireworks are banned throughout B.C. Let’s all work together to protect our province, our people and our livelihoods.

Homeowner wants Big pharma has no control over pot sales milfoil scoured from shoreline

To the editor: Re: Pot Should Be Legally Dispensed, letter to the editor from Dave Hamilton, June 24 Kelowna Capital News: “If medical marijuana requires prescriptions why isn’t it handled by a licensed pharmacy like every other doctor-written prescription in this country?” I believe you need to do some research. The pharmaceutical industry does not have a patent on Mother Nature’s marijuana. Only medication that is controlled by the pharmaceutical industry goes through a licensed pharmacy. Why do you think there is such a big fight against the marijuana industry and the marijuana oil known as THC? The pharmaceutical industry has no control over naturally growing plants or food upon Mother Earth. You need to understand the reason that marijuana and the oil is given as treatment after the poison of the chemotherapy chemical is to also heal the poison from chemotherapy that has been forced

into the peoples’ bodies. Please take the time to Google ‘phoenix tears’ and the many other documents. Maybe you can write back and explain to me and the public why doctors take the oath not to hurt or poison any patient. Still, those same doctors poison people with chemotherapy as I believe they are forced to by the pharmaceutical companies or they will be put out of work. How unfair do people think it truly is, when you do your research on the Internet and find the many cures for cancer while at the same time the media is pushing people to run for cancer to raise money for cancer and people are more than willing to poison their loved ones with chemotherapy when there is an alternative? All this raising money is doing is making the pharmaceutical industries billionaires.

Joseph Hayes, Kelowna

To the editor: The weeds in the lake are out of control. Other than the public beaches, much of the water near the shores along Kelowna south of the bridge is infested with milfoil growth that has reached the surface and now going to seed. Although the growth is in areas in front of private residences, more and more locals and tourists use the lake in these areas for swimming, paddle board, kayaking, sailing and other activities. Becoming tangled in the unsightly and highly invasive weeds is a turn off and unsafe depending on the severity. Apparently, all the authorities are aware of the sudden breakout that is likely due to an early run off and warm spring. However, we are not aware of any short term plans to control the problem and prevent it from becoming an even more serious and expensive problem next year. In years past, I recall seeing weed control machines working much more often in the areas now infested. I hope that this is not a budget cutting initiative. The community needs to voice its concerns and the authorities need to educate us on their plans and anything we can do to help. Kelowna’s most valuable asset is at risk of being devalued. We should be taking extraordinary steps to deal with the extraordinary situation that I’ve not seen in my 20 years living in Kelowna. Michael Neill, Kelowna

To the editor: Open letter to B.C. Premier Christy Clark: Re: Sustainable funding for transportation in Metro Vancouver. We are writing this letter to share information with the province related to sustainable funding for transportation and to encourage support for the existing Mayors’ Investment plan. We hope that it will continue to be considered by the province despite the recent plebiscite outcome. The Real Estate Foundation supports real estate and land use practices that contribute to resilient, healthy communities and natural systems. We provide funding to non-profit organizations working to enable positive change in communities across British Columbia. Built Environment Sustainability is one of our five grant program areas. We fund research, education and law reform initiatives that help contribute to efficient, liveable development and infrastructure and address integrated community needs for housing, buildings, energy, infrastructure, transportation and open space. We promote regulations, policy, planning and practices that support a more sustainable built environment through complete, compact, livable, energy efficient, transit oriented development that responds to the diversity of community needs. In 2013, our Board approved a grant to Simon Fraser University’s Centre for Dialogue, for a project called Moving in a Livable Region: Investing in Transportation for a Growing Economy. This public education and outreach initiative aimed to engage people on potential policy approaches to help advance a sustainable funding regime for transportation in the region. The project goal was to raise the level of knowledge and public

discourse on pressing issues surrounding the governance, planning and funding of Metro Vancouver’s regional transportation system, which influences land-use practices, quality of life, housing affordability and the health of the regional economy. This research involved input from various local and international transportation experts, Best Management Practices from other jurisdictions, and consultations with local residents from across Metro Vancouver. We hope that the province will consider these findings, which highlighted why a Frequent Transit Network is essential for our economy and quality of life and provides the backbone to a regional transportation system. In addition, findings indicated a need for more fact-based information about how transportation affects Greater Vancouver residents. In 2014, REFBC provided grant funding to Clean Energy Canada to conduct research with the CD Howe Institute on the economic costs of congestion for Metro Vancouver. The research analyzed the costs of commuting times, car ownership, and infrastructure associated with transit, roads, bikeways—all of which are important considerations for stakeholders and landuse decision makers at regional and municipal levels. The report highlights the societal benefits that arise from dense, transit-oriented communities, and assigns a comprehensive dollar value to the hidden costs of unsustainable land use practices and associated congestion problems in the Vancouver area in a way which had not yet been done. It provides valuable information relevant to decisions on the costs and benefits of transportation funding. The Foundation believes that this important research should continue to be considered and shared with the public and decision makers, along with

more information on how transportation needs are currently funded. Cooperation on investment in transit infrastructure in the region can have a positive effect on land use and real estate practices, with associated social, environmental and economic benefits. The Foundation hopes that TransLink, Metro Vancouver and its member municipalities and the province can partner in the future to ensure that land-use plans and transportation investments are well aligned.

Feds kick in $50,000 grant for new accessible playground Alistair Waters

ALISTAIR WATERS/CAPITAL NEWS

awaters@kelonwacapnews.com

Local MP Ron Cannan points where the new playground will be located on the Centennial Park grounds to these youngsters as Kelowna Mayor Colins Basran looks on.

Kelowna is getting its third fully accessible children’s playground thanks to a contribution by the federal government. Ottawa is giving the city $50,000 to build the playground as part of the improvements to Rutland’s Centennial Park, which it bought from the Rutland Park’s Society earlier this year. The new playground will be the second phase of work at the park, with the first, a new soccer field, set to have work started on it in the fall. The field is part of the

accessibility grant, which are provided to ensure all children can enjoy playgrounds and park facilities. On hand for the announcement were federal Transport Minister Lisa Raitt, and Kelowna-Lake Country MP Ron Cannan, who made the announcement on behalf federal Minister of State for Social Development Candice Bergen. Equipment to be provided at the playground is described as an inclusive and accessible structure. “Together with the hard work of numerous volunteers and organizations like the City of Kelowna, we are supporting families and children to make

$400,000 the city promised to spend immediately to improvement the dilapidated park. “The City of Kelowna is excited about the future of Rutland Centennial Park and we’re so pleased the Government of Canada shares our enthusiasm for this revitalized neighbourhood park,” said Kelowna Mayor Colin Basran. He said similar playgrounds, which are accessible to all children, regardless of any disability, currently exist at the Parkinson Recreation Centre and in Rutland’s Ben Lee Park. He noted the federal money is coming as an enabling

Rutland Centennial Park’s playground accessible to all,” said Cannan. Meanwhile, the president of the Rutland Park’s Society, Todd Sanderson, said work to renovate the park’s hall—which the society kept as part of its $800,000 deal with the city—is expected to start in 2016. He said some minor rearranging of the delivery entrance will take place during the summer now that Roxby Plaza on the west side of the hall has been improved by the city and the parking lot behind it has become the new home of the Rutland Community Market on weekends.

Good hearing but trouble with conversation? A lot of people have trouble catching what people say, especially in group situations, despite having good hearing. What a lot of people don’t know is that this may be caused by damage to the so-called motor or amplifier function of special cells in the ear. A new type of hearing aid can help balance this out. A great many people have difficulty hearing others clearly on a daily basis. Bad acoustics, unclear pronunciation, background noise and music often make it challenging to catch what people say. This results in them having to repeatedly ask questions, straining to hear and perhaps increasingly avoiding discussions in large groups. As mentioned earlier, this may be caused by malfunctions in special cells in the ear. According to a theory proposed by hearing researchers, “motor cells” are a type of hair cell responsible for amplifying quiet sounds. They vibrate up to 20,000 times per second. If these hair cells do not work properly then quiet

a good solution for most people. This improvement in hearing can be achieved for some clients through the new Phonak Audéo V’s hearing aids. This cutting-edge hearing technology comes in a miniature casing that can significantly enhance the user’s ability to hear speech in company. The hearing aids attune to the person you are speaking to and can also recognize if ambient noise increases in the background. Hair cells in the ear move very rapidly and can act as an amplifier or dampener. If these cells are damaged, they can no longer properly amplify speech and dampen loud noises.

Connect Hearing is currently looking to improve hearing for people who experience these challenges and want to try this new technology. We are particularly interested in candidates sounds are no longer naturally who have trouble hearing speech in amplified in the ear and loud sounds the situations discussed above and can benefit from a demonstration no longer dampened. to see whether they notice an This leads to more difficulty in improvement. hearing what is said in a lot of situations.

Kelowna meets film shoot need for wealthy neighbourhoods Sawyer Klassen sawyer.klassen@kelownacapnews.com

The movie Tomato Red will begin filming in Kelowna this weekend. The filming will start on Saturday and last for six or seven days before moving to Vancouver, where the remainder of the movie will be shot. Okanagan film commissioner Jon Summerland said Kelowna will be used for the higher wealth neighbourhoods in the movie. “They’re spending

Okanagan averages but that’s OK as long as around five full films a it’s going to be a great year, plus a number of film and we can all see films that are partially it.” Tomato Red is being produced by filmmakers KELOWNA from the United KELOWNA Kingdom, and will be hiring around a dozen local people to help with the production. While summer is usually a downtime for filming in the Okanagan due to prices reflecting tourism season, Summerland is optimistic about how this year will turn out. He noted the

a lot of time in bigger homes, country clubs and that sort of stuff,” he explained. “We tried for the whole film, but there was a very specific look for the houses, there had to be two lower income homes that were right beside each other and they had to be elevated so you could see the whole valley below. “They did find that in the Ashcroft area and it was a very tricky beat, because it was a perfect location for them. So we lost half the film to them,

shot in the valley and various TV shows that are partially shot here. Summerland said he

currently has 28 films in the budget range of $2.5 to $10 million that he is trying to bring to

the Okanagan, and if he can land eight of them they will provide a great economic impact.

Kelowna, Westside join forces as food providers Alistair Waters awaters@kelonwacapnews.com

While those who use the Kelowna and Westside Community Food Banks will not notice much of a change, Wednesday’s announcement that the two organizations are amalgamating to create the Central Okanagan Community Food Bank

It was thumbs up at the announcement this week that the Westside and Kelowna food banks will be amalgamated.

will make a big difference to how they can be served, says executive director Lennetta Parry. Following the amalgamation announcement, Parry said both food banks will continue to do business under their Kelowna and Westside names but be operated as one entity. In addition to saving and efficiencies concerning administration, supplies and operating, Parry said the move will also allow it to introduce a number of programs currently only available in Kelowna to the Westside. That could include the Food Runners program and assistance food bank workers give clients with issues like resumé writing to help them pursue work. New Central Okanagan Community Food Bank board chairman Fraser Campbell called the amalgamation a “strategic move that will lead to a stronger and healthier organization focused on improving clients’ lives and donor satisfaction.” “It helps us to strengthen our ability to address local hunger and food security, share best practices and expand our reach into the region,” added Campbell. “All the while, making better use of

resources (food, funds and volunteer time and talents) and positioning ourselves for long-term success.” Under the new plan, the Kelowna warehouse will continue to be the hub for distribution with a satellite office in West Kelowna serving clients on the west side of Okanagan Lake. The new board is made up of three directors from the Westside and six from Kelowna. As she has done since being hired nearly two years ago, Parry will continue to run the operations of both food banks. She said the demand for food from the food banks is now 20 per cent higher than in prerecession days, with the Kelowna Community Food Bank alone serving 2,500 to 3,500 individuals each month. The Westside Community Food Bank serves about 800 individuals a month. Together, both operations distribute more than $3.5 million worth of food per year. One concerning statistic is that a third of the food banks’ clients are children. Each month an average of 65 new households apply for help and 25 per cent of those receiving help are employed in some way.

UBCO sets up ballistics lab at YLW sawyer.klassen@kelownacapnews.com

The University of British Columbia Okanagan is constructing a ballistics lab. Bud Mortenson, director of university relations at UBCO, said the university didn’t have space for the lab on campus, so the next option was to lease space in a building at Kelowna International Airport. The 2,500 square foot lab will cost about $500,000 to construct, and is part of the Survive and Thrive Applied Research (STAR) initiative. “The ballistics component of research that’s being done in the area of human survivability in harsher, hazardous environments really needed the ability to test high impact on materials,” Mortenson

athletes playing sports like hockey or football, perhaps even soccer, where the head takes a lot of trauma.” Moving the lab off-campus is a direction Mortenson said the university wants to continue taking in the future. He explained they want to get in the habit of constructing facilities near the campus when they don’t have any space on-campus, eventually creating a porous boundary between UBCO and the surrounding industrial community.

Construction is expected to be completed in September with research beginning shortly thereafter, once the required equipment is installed.

explained. “It might be a piece of body armour that’s used for soldiers in a conflict zone, it might be used for a vest on a dirt biker, so there are a lot of applications for it.” Through STAR, UBCO is partnered with several other postsecondary institutes, including Imperial College London, in England, which has developed a material called Armourgel to be tested at the ballistics lab. “It’s a flexible gel that when you hold it in your hand it feels a little bit like a rubber mat,” Mortenson described. “But when it’s struck with a lot of force it stiffens and spreads that force over a large surface, protecting whatever’s behind it. Imperial College has partnered with us, and we will be exploring how Armourgel can be used in things like helmets for

Kelowna has unveiled a plan for ‘the civic block’ downtown. Currently home to civic buildings, the area from the waterfront to Ellis Street and Queensway to Clement Avenue, the first change will be a new police services building. Above, a planning department staff member speaks with a couple about the plans. City Hall wants to hear your ideas for the area.

Most severe milfoil bloom in 30 years Richard Rolke Black Press reporter

An unfortunate bumper crop of milfoil has authorities considering a long-term response. Growth of the invasive Eurasian milfoil is four to six weeks early in Okanagan lakes this year, and the conditions are considered the worst in 30 years. “If this is the new normal, we’re not ready for it with the machines and staff we have,” executive director Anna Warwick Sears told Okanagan Basin Water Board directors Tuesday. “It’s shocking how much more milfoil there is this year.” It’s anticipated milfoil growth could continue to get worse if climate change leads to earlier, warmer temperatures, so OBWB is working on an asset management plan for new and replacement harvesting equipment. Among the worst places hit by the surge of milfoil is the south end of Wood Lake, where a special exemption to federal fishing rules allowed harvesting to occur in July. A contractor has also been hired to increase harvesting capacity by 30 per cent. They will start

on Osoyoos Lake and hit other areas later in the summer. “We are running the harvester seven days a week, 10 hours a day to stay ahead,” said James Littley, OBWB operations manager. There are also newly infested areas in Kelowna

which Littley suspects may be partly from Mission Creek sediments creating infill on Okanagan Lake. “There are new shallow areas along the shoreline,” he said. Areas treated by OBWB crews over the winter, including beaches, are largely milfoil-free.

Awakening with Gurpreet A True Invitation

“Other aquatic weeds are also early and dense this year, which may increase public perception that milfoil is an issue,” Littley said in a report, “however, we are not permitted to target other species and several thickly weeded areas are not infested with milfoil.”

“When you long to be honest within, that is the path, that is the way to the Truth.“ Gurpreet Allow your heart to lead the way to Beingness in the presence of Gurpreet, an enlightened teacher of the Truth.

As an employee of the Ministry of Labor, a private business owner and the President of Junior Chamber International Canada, Jen Sencar has accomplished a lot since moving to Kelowna ten years ago. Sencar became involved with JCI Okanagan when she first moved to Kelowna as a way of meeting others, but it

quickly grew to much more than that. She developed strong relationships with other JCI members, was able to give back to her community, and became only the fifth female president in the history of JCI Canada. As the President of JCI Canada Sencar has had the opportunity to travel

across Canada and overseas, speaking to and motivating other JCI members around the world, which she loves to do. “Usually I talk to them about being an active citizen or what that is,” Sencar explained. “To me an active citizen is somebody who takes it upon themselves to use their voice and their skills to make things better. They speak up for people who can’t speak up for

themselves or help their community, all those things that are looking for or being a part of something bigger. When I go to other chapters I speak about how we use junior chamber to become that. How do we step out and become a leader, how do we just do little things every day as JC’s to be an active citizen?” Sencar’s desire to motivate and help has guided her through her

Jen Sencar has accomplished a lot since moving to Kelowna 10 years ago. career, as after being a lawyer for four and a half years she joined the Ministry of Labor as an Industrial Relations Officer, where she mediates and investigates wage complaints. “A motivator for me is definitely to be able to help people and businesses, make sure they stay in compliance and do the things they need to do to treat their employees well,” she said. “I also think it’s a skill in communication, you spend a lot of time mediating and explaining things to employees and employers about what they need to do to be successful, because really they don’t want to have to come and see me.” Although she was already working for the Ministry of Labor and was heavily involved with JCI Canada, Sencar became involved with 4Kids Online Enterprises in 2010, a private business she is now the sole owner

of in addition to her other roles. 4Kids Online Enterprises includes Okanagan4Kids.com and the magazine Bump & Beyond. The business focuses on young families with one or more children between the ages of zero and four, providing helpful magazines and other resources for them. One of the most memorable highlights of Sencar’s career came in the past year as she travelled across the world promoting Quebec City as a host candidate for the 2016 World Congress. World Congress is an annual JCI initiative that brings four to sixthousand active leaders together to visit the host city and have meetings for the international organization. Sencar visited Columbia, Malta, Japan and Germany in her efforts to secure Quebec City as the host city, and while she was in Germany she discovered she had been successful. Quebec City will host

World Congress in 2016, the first time it will come to Canada in 30 years. Sencar knows her time with JCI Canada will be ending soon due to age restrictions, but once she moves on she plans to continue using many of the skills she developed while there. “I think I’m going to start to work on doing some more training and doing some motivational speaking. It’s something I really enjoy doing, along with the coaching and mentoring of other women and young people. I’ll probably do some (speaking) through Junior Chamber, but also some on my own.” Sencar’s drive to help others who in turn can then pass along the same message and her personal success in both business and international organizations are what make her a Woman to Watch.

Falcons soar into second half of season Warren Henderson

Will Dean

Dean set for Pan Ams Warren Henderson whenderson@kelownacpanews.com

For the better part of a decade, Will Dean has rowed for Canada all around the world in international competitions. But never in his home country. That will change for the 28-year-old Kelowna native this weekend when he pulls on the Maple Leaf at the Pan American Games in Toronto. Dean will be rowing for Canada in the men’s quad and men’s eights events. “I have to say this is a pretty big privilege to be representing Canada, racing for the first time in my country,” said the 6-foot-5, 220-pound Dean. “I think emotionally it’s going to be a pretty cool thing and means a lot to me. To be part of the opening ceremonies and everything else that goes along with it I expect will be a great experience.” Dean and the men’s quad team heads into the Pan Ams in good form. Dean and teammates Matt Buie, Rob Gibson and Julien Bahain won a bronze medal last month at World Cup 2 in Varese, Italy and should have a good chance at medaling again in Toronto. The Pan Am Games will also help the Canadian crew prepare for the World Championships in early September in Aiguebelette, France. Canada needs a top-eight finish to qualify for the 2016 Summer Olympic Games in Brazil. “We haven’t tapered down our training, we’re putting all our efforts into being ready for the world championships,” said Dean. “We’re hoping to get that Olympic spot at worlds so we don’t have the pressure of trying to get it later. We feel like a top-eight is well within

It’s been a while since Mark Nonis has derived this much enjoyment from watching his team play baseball. Halfway through the 2015 campaign, the Kelowna Falcons have compiled a 19-8 record and are perched high atop the West Coast League’s East Division. Kelowna has won seven consecutive series and are an eye-popping 16-5 during that stretch. And it’s not just the wins that have the club’s GM smiling, but the way the Falcons have grown into a cohesive unit— both on and off the diamond. “Obviously these guys have the talent, we’ve had talented teams before, but this team just clicked and came together like few teams I’ve seen before,” said Nonis. “This is one of the closest knit groups we’ve had, they play for each

Hunter Villanueva and the Kelowna Falcons have put together a solid summer of baseball and are currently leading the West Coast League’s East Division. other and when things aren’t going well, they pick each other up. “They have fun and

they’re a great group to be around, too. It’s been nice to see.” It’s a vastly different

scenario from a year ago when the Falcons were a sluggish 8-19 at the midway point of the

season and eventually finished 14-39. With players coming together from all corners of North America—mostly unfamiliar with each other—for 2 1/2 months in the summer, it’s difficult to predict precisely what the residual effects will be. Nonis said Falcons’ field manager Billy Clontz has also grown since last season’s woes and that’s been reflected in the product on the diamond. “Bill’s done real well,” said Nonis. “He’s really enjoying these guys and is having fun coaching them. You never know what you’re going to get, so Bill and I went into this season without expectations. “It’s been going great but we have to remember we’re only 50 per cent done. We’ve got a ways to go, but we like how it’s been going so far.” One of the many reasons for the Falcons’ success is the play of infielder

Hunter Villaneuva. The sophomore from Fresno Pacific, who leads the teams in hitting with a .396 average, is enjoying his teammates, the brand of baseball the team is playing and his first summer in Canada. “We just clicked automatically, we’ve formed some great friendships and the guys just believe in each other,” said Villaneuva, a native of Bakersfield, Calif. “Whether we’re down by a couple of runs or not having a great night, the guys pick each other up and find ways to win. “As for (Kelowna), the town is incredible, the people are great… it’s been one of the best baseball experiences I’ve ever had.” The Falcons return to action tonight at Elks Stadium when they open a three-game series against the Walla Walla Sweets.

With a decade of rowing already under his belt and plenty of work and commitment required to remain on top of his game, Dean isn’t certain how much longer he’ll row beyond the 2016 season. But for now, he’s

enjoying his sport of choice as much as he ever has. “Some parts of it are a grind for sure,” Dean said, “But all in all, I’m having more fun than I’ve ever had. I’m going faster than I ever have before and I’m with a really great group of guys. I’m excited to see what we can do.” Dean will row for Canada on Sunday at the Pan American Games in the preliminary heats in both the men’s quads and the men’s eights. @capnewsports.ca

Blake makes strides at nationals Warren Henderson whenderson@kelownacapnews.com

Other than the process of landing his Canadian citizenship papers, there isn’t much holding Jerome Blake back these days. The 19-year-old sprinter from Kelowna turned into two more impressive performances last weekend at the Canadian Senior Track and Field Championships in Edmonton.

Jerome Blake

Blake was right on his personal best in the 100 metres, finishing his heat

in 10.37 seconds. In the 200 metres, Blake posted a solid time of 21.10 seconds into a strong headwind. Because he’s not yet Canadian, the Jamaicanborn Blake wasn’t permitted to advance to the 200 final. “He would have been ranked third going into the final, so that was a very promising run for Jerome,” said Pat SimaLedding, Blake’s coach with the Okanagan

Athletics Club. “We’re hoping that by this winter he will have his (Canadian) citizenship so he can compete in finals at national competitions.” Blake, however, was permitted to run in the 4 by 100 relay final and helped his B.C. teammates win a gold medal. With Blake running the anchor leg, Team B.C won the race by a full second. Sima-Ledding looks for Blake to continue to make progress this summer, as he competes this weekend at the B.C. Athletics Championships in Nanaimo. Then in August, the Rutland grad will head to Fort McMurray, AB for the Western Canada Summer Games. In the longer term, Blake has plans to qualify for the 2016 Summer Olympic Games in Rio in the 100 metres. “There’s still a ways to go, he needs to run a

10.16, but he still has over a year to make that standard,” added SimaLedding. “He’s on the right track. The speed comes when it comes, it can’t be forced.” Canada’s national sprinting program has also expressed an interest in Blake and could potentially bring him on board to train as a member of the men’s relay team. Canada is considered a medal hopeful in the 4 by 100 in 2016 in Rio. Beginning in the fall, Sima-Ledding will get Blake prepared for the indoor season. Part of his winter regimen will include a number of trips to Arizona where he’s been invited to train at the World Athletics Centre in Phoenix. “It’s a good opportunity for him to train with some worldclass athletes,” SimaLedding said.

Kelowna’s John Gay will compete for Canada in the 3k steeplechase at the PanAm Junior Athletics Championships this summer in Edmonton.

John Gay has long wanted the opportunity to represent his country in international competition. The 18-year-old runner from Kelowna will get that chance this summer in Edmonton. Thanks to his performance at the recent Canadian junior track and field championships, Gay will join Team Canada at the Pan American Junior Athletics Championships, July 31 to Aug. 2 in the Alberta capital. Gay booked a spot at Pan Ams after winning the silver medal in the 3000 metre steeplechase

last weekend at the junior nationals in Edmonton. Gay, who is a member of the UBC Thunderbirds track and field team, finished just 35/100 of a second behind Manitoba’s Caleb De Jong. “Finishing second and making my first national team was such an incredible feeling and one that is yet to fully sink in,” said Gay, an OKM grad and member of the Okanagan Athletics Club. “It comes as the fruit of a lot of months of consistent training and a varsity cross country and track season at UBC

that, despite its ups and downs, really helped me to grow as an athlete. “The opportunity to represent my country on an international stage has been something I have been striving for a long time and to finally reach this point is an incredible privilege.” With a silver medal and long awaited spot on the national team in his possession, Gay wasn’t quite done at nationals. On the final day of the Canadian championships, Gay earned a bronze medal in the 5000 metres (5k), finishing in a time of

Host Outlaws finish third Smith leads Lightning at provincial U19 champs The Westside Outlaws found home cooking and familiar surroundings very much to their liking during the Softball B.C. U19 C girls championship last weekend.

The host Outlaws captured the bronze medal at the 16-team tournament, which included a crucial 6-5 win over Richmond in the playoff round. During the tournament, Westside posted a 7-2 overall record, drawing plenty of praise from their head coach. “Just outstanding, phenomenal,” said coach Graeme Duncan said of his team’s effort. “Playing back-to-back

Members of the Jets were in Kamloops June 26 to 28 for the B.C. AA Championships, then competed in Victoria July 2 to 6 at the B.C. AAA provincials and Open Water Championships. “Our team did a great job at both events, I am really proud of our teams accomplishments from both meets,” said Jets coach Peter Wilkins. In Kamloops, Taylor Desrosier got the threeswimmer team to a good start with a silver medal in the 200 IM Friday night. Desrosier also made

Some soft tissue injuries Cat poses fi ery mother instincts just don’t heal quickly With air bags and seat belts holding our bodies from striking steering wheels and dashboards during car crashes, fractured bones are rare except in the most dramatic of crashes. The vast majority of injuries are to the ligaments, muscles and other connective tissues, otherwise known as “soft tissue injuries.” The good news is that most people enjoy a complete recovery from soft tissue injuries. According to numerous published medical studies, that percentage is in the range of 85 to 97 per cent. No wonder your doctor and therapists in the early stages after a crash are so optimistic that you will achieve a full recovery. Most of my clients had been told during those earlier stages that they should recover within some reasonably short period of time. You should join in on the optimism. Not only is it based on solid medical science, but your level of optimism can be a factor in your recovery. The bad news is that any time there is a high percentage with excellent outcomes, there is necessarily a lower percentage with poor ones—in this case, the three to 15 per cent of people who continue to have pain after a soft tissue injury. Your medical team (your doctor and therapists) will be bound and determined to achieve, with you, the wonderful outcome of a complete recovery. With the high statistics on their side, it’s “their race to lose.” Nobody likes to admit failure, particularly when there is such a high probability of success. The life work of your medical team is to heal. Their failure to bring about the statistically likely positive outcome is a let down to themselves. It is also a let down to you. To those whose business model relies heavily on insurance company funding, it is a let down to the insurance adjuster and a corresponding compromise of the likelihood of further referrals. The insurance adjuster who has been funding the care wants answers, a response to the “you

FELINE FURY

Achieving Justice PAUL HERGOTT should have been better by now” question. If your therapists have any hope of an extension of insurance funding, they have to convince the adjuster that more care will bring about more recovery. Once again, though, there’s a failure. It seems inevitable that the finger starts to point in your direction. Maybe you haven’t done enough to participate in your own recovery. Perhaps you’re pretending that you still have pain, or exaggerating your symptoms. We all know or have heard of the leeches among us who laugh about a claim settlement achieved through dishonest means. (And by the way, please aggressively report those people not only to the insurance company they have cheated, but also to the police.) You haven’t been told the medical science that some people simply never recover from soft tissue injuries. You have been unlucky once when someone’s inattentiveness at the wheel caused you injury and further horribly unlucky to fall within the small percentage of people whose soft tissue injury has resulted in chronic pain. You are now being

victimized by the stigma the leeches of the world have caused. Instead of being supported and consoled, you are being looked at with suspicion. The insurance company, if it’s ICBC, is likely to send you to a medical specialist, the likes of whose evidence was referred to in a recent case of Hendry v. Ellis, a decision released early June 2015. It took crossexamination to get that specialist to admit to the medical statistics that he left out of his medical report and, essentially, admit the obvious reality that Ms. Hendry fell into that small percentage. Quoting from that decision: “He admitted that numerous medical studies have been published…that 3-15 per cent of people continue to have pain after a soft tissue injury and that by definition, Ms. Hendry is in that percentage of people.” If you continue to have pain after a soft tissue injury that, statistically, “should have resolved,” you too are by definition within that percentage of very unfortunate people. If you would like validation that you might not be getting from your insurance adjuster, let me know and I’ll send you a copy of the case.

Scaredy Cat 3— Charlie and Tez 0. Hodge Hopefully at Podge the end of this strange and truly CHARLIE ‘wild’ adventure, HODGE everyone will be winners. But so far, Scaredy has held the upper hand... err, make that upper paw. One of life’s ironies is that feisty behaviour and determination in a creature has little to do with size, shape or strength. Meet Scaredy Cat, an attractive tabby cat with an apparent bi-polar disorder and prize fighter attitude. She hosts a right hook, left slice combination of heavyweight damage proportions and a noquarter aggressive style. If indeed ‘Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned,’ then try messing with a mother cat weaning and protecting her baby kittens. When the mother cat is feral the fear/fight factor becomes epic. Scaredy Cat may look loving and cute but that’s a con job. She is one

mean mother. Scaredy Cat follows the personality traits of serial killers such as Ted Bundy—fooling victims with a sweet, kind feigned disposition only to brutally attack when backs are turned. I must admit to a certain amount of decision making that created our current dilemma. I was the one with the bright idea of befriending the four-footed spawn of hiss, spit and slice that resides in our shed. As responsible pet owners we do not believe in allowing our animals outside. Domesticated cats venturing outside on regular bases not only live shorter lives but cause significant problems for neighbours and themselves. The Scaredy Cat factor began two months ago when Tez and I first noticed Scaredy hanging out in our yard.

I jokingly suggested to Tez we should leave the door open and let her wander around inside, hoping the smell of a cat would discourage the mice I had seen signs of. Tez agreed. Silly Tez. Over the next couple of days, Scaredy continued to visit and on occasion actually ventured into the shed to snoop. Then Tez and I adventured off to Nelson for two nights while I did research on the novel I am writing. When we returned and opened the shed to put back the cooler, Scaredy Cat came flying out the door. Later that day I heard the faint sounds of kittens. Further investigation revealed four tiny little balls of fur. After considering all the options Tez and I agreed to keeping the menagerie of unexpected borders alive until they are old enough to wean from mom.

Three men, one community help raise $5,200 for UW

Holding the donation cheque for the United Way are (from left) Renee Wasylyk, Shelley Gilmore and Gail Temple.

More than 500 people attended a celebration April 25 to express their appreciation for the many years retiring mayor Walter Gray and city councilors Andre Blanleil and Robert Hobson spent leading our city. “Remarkable people make remarkable communities. Not only did this evening celebrate some of the extraordinary individuals within this community, but it did so in a way that highlighted how remarkable this community is,”said Renee Wasylyk, a member of the organizing committee for the Three Men, One Community charity event. “It signifies how the gifts of these three men’s lives continue to inspire and impact beyond their tenure on council.” The committee announced earlier this year that net proceeds

would be given to the United Way of the Central and South Okanagan/ Similkameen. Last Friday, the United Way CSO received a donation for $5,285.65, a donation that was made possible through the support of the community through both sponsorship and attending the event. “United Way CSO is so grateful for the broad community support that came from the Three Men One Community event,” said Shelley Gilmore, executive director for United Way Central & South Okanagan/ Similkameen. “Seeing how community can come together to honour those among us that have truly made a difference, is a wonderful example of a united community.” The event saw a community come

together and included dinner wine from Quails’ Gate Estate Winery and Sandhill Wines, special thanks from Premier Christy Clark, city manager Ron Mattiussi, retired fire chief and former city councilor Gerry Zimmermann, a video tribute look over the past 20 years and words from the honourees. Mayor Colin Basran ended the evening celebrations by giving all three men “freedom of the city” an honour that only 18 individuals have received. “The evening to honour the contributions of Walter, Andre and Robert was an almost magical evening in terms of warmth and camaraderie,”said Gail Temple, another organizing committee member.

FELINE FURY

Mother cat protective of her little kittens HODGE FROM A19 Then, we would have them looked after by the SPCA, the Cat Coalition and veterinarians, with the hope of finding them all homes. At discovery time, Tez and I agreed that none of them would remain with us as our two aging cats would be too rattled by newcomers, and with compromised lungs I am probably better without another dozen years or so of cat hair floating around. Cat expert (and feral cat hero) Helena Pol provided us with all the knowledge and tips she could in keeping the kittens alive until they were ready for treatment. Suffice to say the past six weeks have not only proven a tad interesting, but also somewhat inconvenient and life threatening. Trying to feed and socialize four kittens around a very protective mom is simply an accident waiting to happen, especially when the shed doubles as my writing office. Scaredy Cat nailed Teresa first, a left-right combo which resulted in scratches on both legs. The next two attacks earned me scars, the first on my leg, the next on my hand. I look like a recovering prize fighter who lost. As the week comes to an end, Tez and I finally have relocated the four kittens, now old enough to be separated and socialized. Meanwhile, the cat trap in the shed is still waiting for Scaredy to adventure in. Should we finally succeed in snagging her she will be fixed and returned to us. Our end decision still awaits. Once she is fixed and back we may simply encourage her to remain a shed cat and to do the task originally conceived—eat mice, not hatch future mousers. While Scaredy Cat is not very happy with us at this point—and understandably so—the pharmacy is thrilled with our newest adventure. Their sales of Polysporin and Band-Aids have dramatically increased in the past month. On the other hand, we remain determined to not be conned by the kittens downstairs and take any more cats in permanently. Though I must admit, if such is the case why are Tez and I arguing over what their names should be? Stay tuned for the further adventures of Scaredy Cat and the four heart-melters.

For the record

A headline for a story published in the July 8 edition of Kelowna Capital News indicated the Central Okanagan dog ambassadors would “hand out tickets and treats.” In fact, the ambassadors don’t serve in an enforcement capacity, limited only to “provide a positive connection and useful information to reward and promote responsible dvog ownership in the Central Okanagan.”

Dotted with boutiques and T-shirt shops, Haleiwa is best known for shave ice, Hawaii’s version of a snow cone. There are various places to buy one, but most visitors join the queue at Matsumoto Shave Ice (www. matsumotoshaveice.com), where the 30-something

Beside the Surfer bar, Kahokulea Haiku delivered a traditional sunset chant called an “oli.” “Hawaiians used oli to connect with the gods and their ancestors,” he explained. “Tonight we’re going to celebrate the end of a beautiful day.” Haiku, a self-described “cultural practitioner,” said the North Shore provides a very different vacation experience from

Honolulu. “You’re almost forced to slow down,” he noted. “People are tired of the pre-packaged Waikiki tours,” he added. “They want to explore. They want to get involved with the host culture.” That sentiment is shared by Alan Bank, a Florida physician who makes yearly visits to the resort. “Turtle Bay offers exactly what I want: lots

of open space,” he said. Each year, Bank rents a car so he and his family can explore the sleepy villages along the “Kam.” “Every little town has its own character,” he said. “Every corner has a beautiful beach.” Heading north out of Honolulu, that unique character is first obvious in Haleiwa.

KAHUKU, Hawaii— Along Oahu’s North Shore, 40 miles and 80 years from Honolulu, Junior Ah You sat at a picnic table outside Tita’s Grill, the modest diner he runs, talking about “town.” To people on this rural part of the island, “town” means Honolulu, a place they’d rather avoid. “I try not to go,” Ah You said. “Only out of necessity do we get out there.” I hear that sentiment over and over during my stay. World-famous Waikiki Beach may be only an hour or so away, but people along the North Shore think their time is better spent right here. And, they think a lot of tourists would agree if they’d just pry themselves away from Honolulu’s high-rise hotels. The tallest building in these parts is a sevenstory assisted-living center in Hauula. It sits along the Kamehameha Highway—natives just call it the “Kam”—which loops around the island. The two-lane road passes quaint towns and dozens of pristine beaches, some of which don’t even have names. Uncrowded and unspoiled, these serene strands of sand are where locals come to surf and sun. The North Shore’s one and only large hotel, the Turtle Bay Resort (www. turtlebayresort.com), is hugged on both sides by idyllic beaches.

store,” he recalled. “Shave ice started maybe five years later. Back in the ‘50s, the town was kind of dead. There weren’t as many people, so somebody suggested we try and sell shave ice.” From Haleiwa, the twolane highway leads north past stunning beaches. A turn inland leads to the lush Waimea Valley (www.waimeavalley. net), at which visitors explore places where ancient natives once lived, worked and worshipped. Guests can stroll or take a tram past botanical gardens and a re-created village at which Kawika Au makes netting using lauhala, a centuries-old method of leaf weaving. Three-quarters of a mile from the ticket booth, the road ends at a waterfall. Beneath the 45foot drop, visitors splash about in a deep pool.

As if that weren’t enough, on the side there’s fresh bread, which locals dip in “cocoa rice,” a concoction of hot chocolate blended with coconut milk, sugar and rice. Piled high in a foam container, the killa moco could easily feed two. The $12.50 cost is far from Waikiki’s wallet-busting prices. “People here still live pretty much off the land,” Junior Ah You pointed out.

CHLOE ID#372172 9 YEARS DOMESTIC SHORT HAIR SPAYED FEMALE

Are you looking for two loving canines to join your family? These brothers have been together since the day they were born and we are praying that it stays that way. Dozer and Charlie are the best of friends and love to spend their time hiking and walking. The volunteers say they are excellent on leash and quite graceful. Like most dogs they are not fond of cats, so a feline free home would be best. They are used to the warmth and comfort of an indoor home, are quiet and well behaved and love to curl up on the floor while you watch a movie or read. Just because we are looking to keep them together doesn’t mean you should not consider adopting them. If you have space in your heart and home for one...why not two? It’s twice the love! Please ask the staff to set up a meet and greet in our yard, so you can see for yourself what soulful and loving dogs they are.

Chloe is a true diamond in the rough. She has a lot of love to give, & will roll over when she gets attention. She is a tad on the large size, loves to be groomed & hugged and is a true lap cat. If you feel you can make a commitment to helping Chloe control her weight and giving her all the love she deserves then ask the staff to set up a one on one meet and greet with her. She is house trained and can hardly wait to meet you.

fender instead of the usual Trail Rated badging. Under the skin, this wagon is pure Wrangler with a 3.6-litre Pentastar V6 mated to a six-speed manual transmission. Inside, the design gets whimsically Hawaiian with “surfer” blue, white and pink flowered cloth seats edge-trimmed in white leather. Finishing touches include a tiki god stick shift knob and a classic, kitschy hula dancer doll atop the dashboard. Jeep Staff Car No, they didn’t actually have these in World War II but every general would have wanted one. The Jeep Staff Car certainly passes muster as a salute to the legendary military vehicles of the past. Recruiting the foundation of an Unlimited four-door, the Jeep Staff Car has no “B” pillars or doors, for a pure Jeep, open-to-the-elements driving experience. Like real military vehicles every inch of the Staff Car is painted the same Sandstorm colour. That artillery box in back is actually a cooler that will hold 85 beer cans. Jeep Grand Cherokee Overlander Grand Cherokees tend to spend more time in paved mall parking lots than on bush-bashing off-road trails but the Overlander concept pushes the Grand Chero-

commodate 18-inch milled wheels, an SRT-styled matte black hood, SRT taillamps, off-road rock rails, tow hooks, yellow front lamp covers and an integrated front-winch. A 3.0-litre diesel V6 provides plenty of low range rock-crunching oomph. Then Jeep takes the coating usually sprayed on pickup beds and applies it to the Overlander roof, serving as the base for a two-person hard-shell rooftop tent to keep you high and dry.

The Red Rock Responder does what a small minority of Jeep owners clamour for—it converts a Jeep into a pickup truck. In this case, the design theme was a mechanic’s support vehicle for the harshest terrains. Off-road enhancements include a four-inch lift kit, Fox shocks and front and rear Dana 60 axles with 5.38 gearing. The concept also mounts high-top fenders, prototype off-road rock rails, Wrangler Rubicon 10th Anniversary Edition steel front and rear bumpers and 37-inch BF Goodrich Mud Terrain T/A

KM2 tires on 17-inch beadlock wheels. Side cargo boxes and an under floor tray hold the mechanic’s tools as well as a hi-lift jack, dual compressor and air hose, fire extinguisher and other accessories. Like most of the concepts listed above, a future Jeep pickup seems unlikely but, for now, diehards can investigate the JK8 Mopar kit that converts an Unlimited Jeep into a pickup.

Culture ENTERTAINMENT: WHAT’S ON

Outdoor concerts lined up for this summer Entertainment

IN THE LOOP Martina McBride will perform in concert at the Mission Hill Family Estate Winery outdoor amphitheatre July 26 in West Kelowna. CONCERTS Performances by Martina McBride, The Wallflowers and Chris Botti Mission Hill Family Estate Winery outdoor amphitheatre West Kelowna Mission Hill Family Estate will play host to three concerts this summer at the West Kelowna winery’s outdoor amphitheatre. The live musical performances include the return of multiple Grammy Award winning jazz artist Chris Botti on Friday, July 24; country music singer Martina McBride on Sunday, July 26; and The Wallflowers, fronted by Jakob Dylan, the son of Bob Dylan, on Saturday, Aug. 15. For artists normally reserved for much larger venues the small capacity amphitheatre provides a rare treat for those searching to engage with their fans on a more intimate level. Artists who have graced the stage at Mission Hill in the past have included Tony Bennett, Gipsy Kings, Chris Isaak, Lyle Lovett and LeAnn Rimes. “A concert performance under the open sky at our

outdoor amphitheatre is a truly an unforgettable experience,”said Anthony von Mandl. “There is something extraordinarily special about this intimate hilltop location; a wonderful outdoor concert experience reminiscent of the grand performances staged at Europe’s historic open-air Roman amphitheatres. We are thrilled to welcome these exceptional musical performers to the winery this summer.” Chris Botti will be making his third appearance at the outdoor winery venue. The Italian-American trumpeter and composer from Portland, Ore., is the world’s best-selling jazz instrumentalist, and has performed with such luminaries as Andrea Bocelli, Paul Simon, Aretha Franklin, Natalie Cole, Bette Midler, Joni Mitchell, Sting, Josh Groban and Michael Bublé. Martina McBride is a Nashville music icon with a legendary voice to go with her 20 top 10 and six number one hits, has been nominated for 14 Grammy Awards, has sold more than 18 million albums worldwide. th She has also been

inducted into the Grand Ole Opry, the ultimate honour for any country music performer. The Wallflowers, a twotime Grammy-winning alternative rock band, have sold more than seven million records worldwide. The band’s hit single One Headlight is listed among Rolling Stone magazine’s 100 Greatest Pop Songs of all time. Tickets on sale at missionhillwinerycom or by calling 250-762-5050. CONCERT Aerosmith Monday, July 13 Prospera Place Kelowna Tickets go on sale today, starting at 10 a.m., for the iconic rock band Aerosmith. The original group members are all on board for this tour—Steven Tyler, Joe Perry, Brad Whitford, Tom Hamilton and Joey Kramer—which hasn’t been the case for some previous tours of the band in recent years due to medical issues and disagreements between Tyler and Perry. While Aerosmith can boast of record sales topping 150 million, induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, four Grammys, eight American Music Awards,

six Billboard Awards and 12 MTV Video MusicAwards among the band’s many honours, the Aerosmith story is really one of survival. Since the Boston band burst on the national scene with their classic rock staple hit Sweet Emotion in the early 1970s, Aerosmith has continued to remain relevant musically all those years since. That despite of friction among the band members and dealing with the bad side of rock ‘n’ roll success—drug abuse, particularly for Perry and Tyler. Music From Another Dimension released in late 2012 is Aerosmith’s most recent album. Tickets are available at selectyourtickets.com, or by calling 250-762-5050 or in person at Prospera Place. THEATRE The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (Abridged) July 15-25 7 p.m. Okanagan Villa Estate Winery 3240 Pooley Rd. Kelowna This will be Shakespeare Kelowna’s fourth outdoor summer play presented on the Vibrant Vine Winery

stage in the heart of East Kelowna’s wine country. The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged) originally premiered at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe in 1987 and featured three overachieving actors attempting to perform all 37 of Shakespeare’s plays in 90 minutes. Fast-paced, witty, and physical, it’s an evening of laughter for Shakespeare lovers and haters alike. After a suitably pompous literary introduction, Act One launches into a highly condensed version of Romeo and Juliet, followed by modern interpretations of Titus Andronicus and Othello. Next up is a mash-up in which all 16 comedies are performed at once. The pace doesn’t slow down as they move on to the tragedies and histories. Just when they think they have completed the challenge of performing all 37 plays they realize they are short by one play—Hamlet. And it’s on to Act Two. This is not your traditional evening of Shakespeare. For more information see shakespearekelowna. org. For tickets order online at selectyourtickets.com. CONCERTS Emerson Drive July 30, 7 p.m. Tom Cochrane with Red Rider Aug. 27, 7 p.m. Cedar Creek Estate Winery D5445 Lakeshore Rd. Kelowna CedarCreek Estate Winery will play host to outdoor concert performances by Tom

Tom Cochrane with Red Rider will perform Aug. 27 in the outdoor setting of the CedarCreek Estate Winery in Kelowna. Cochrane with Red Rider and Emerson Drive in the winery’s Vineyard Pavilion. Emerson Drive has been a staple in the country music community, known for being a band to crank out the hits and putting on a high energy concert show. Cochrane is the pride of Lynn Lake, Man., an Order of Canada recipient, Grammy nominee and Canadian Music Hall of Fame inductee. The proceeds from the TELUS Sunset Concert Series, presented by 101.5 EZ ROCK, will continue to benefit the Rotary Centre for the Arts. “There is something magical about the Sunset Concerts at CedarCreek,” said Scott Locke, general manager at CedarCreek Estate Winery. “Nature has been kind to us, with gorgeous

The City of Kelowna has absolutely no watering restrictions, so the question is why not? In 2010, the Okanagan Basin Water Board Supply and Demand Study determined that our average use was 675 litres of water/person/ day (compared to 490 for B.C. and 329 for Canada). In summer it jumped to 1,000 litres due to outdoor irrigation. Of all water used in the valley, 55% goes to agriculture, 5% golf courses, 4% commercial use, 2% parks and open spaces, 2% industrial, 1% institutional and 7% residential indoor use. A whopping 24% goes to outdoor residential use, much of this to keep lawns unnaturally green in the Okanagan’s semidesert climate.

GAULT, STANLY ALAN 1936 - 2015 Stan is survived by his wife Bernice, daughter Sandra (Mike), grandson Travis, brother Les (Dorothy), nephews Steve (Teresa), Robb (Shauna) and Blair. He was predeceased by daughter Lauren, brother Lloyd and nephew Randy. Stan was born in 1936 in Grande Prairie, AB. He graduated from the University of Alberta in Edmonton and went on to work in the Registrar’s Office at the U of A. He became the Associate Registrar (Admissions) for International students and guided hundreds of students through the system to get their degrees. He retired from the U of A at age 54 and started his own consulting firm – Document Evaluation Services. He evaluated International educational documents for employment and education in Canada. The Alberta Dept. of Education recognized the need for this service and asked Stan to set up a government office. His consulting business was then redundant so he and Bernice retired to Arizona for seven winters before moving to Kelowna. He was a kind, gentle man with a keen sense of humour. His first priority was always his family. A Celebrative Reception will be held on Friday July 17, 2015 at 11:30 am at Everden Rust Funeral Services at 1910 Windsor Road. Condolences may be made to the family by visiting www.everdenrust.com

HAVER, LELANND

(March 6,1932 - June 16,2015) You have shown us how to tread when there are no more choices left! “To hold on when there is nothing left in you except the will that says hold on” (Kipling). We watched your bravery, your resolve, your clarity when the promise of the operation withered before us. We heard, felt, and witnessed your inner honesty as you revealed and balanced the books of your mind and soul, carefully examining them ‘til there was nothing left to see. We watched and listened as you spoke, even when your voice and focus wavered, as you faced the game of accountability, acceptance, and forgiveness in your final days. We learned from you, lessons indescribable, as you nobly journeyed through your departing process and transition into silence. In all that he did Lelannd endevoured to live a responsible, constructive and meaningful life. He had a humane concern for all humanity. He loved the classics: music, art, dance and literature. He was at home in the philosophical world and stood for causes that might otherwise have destroyed our way of life. In his early years he worked in the broadcasting (radio) industry and, until he retired, in the hospitality industry as a consulting and purchasing specialist. He is survived by his wife Airaca, and relatives across Canada and the United States. He will be sadly missed by all those who knew him and loved him.

In 1962 the family moved to Kelowna where Mary started work at Kelowna General Hospital and worked there until her retirement in 1982. Mary lost her husband John in a tragic accident in 1964 and never remarried. Mary loved music, dancing, gardening and her many friends, but especially her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. Mary was a devout Christian and attended church services regularly. Mary was predeceased by her parents, her brother Nick and sister Anne. Mary leaves behind her children, grandchildren, great grandchildren and great great grandchildren and nephew to mourn her passing. The family would like to thank Dr. Outram and the staff at Cottonwoods facility for their excellent and loving care, especially the staff on the Cedar Wing.
