Stars raise $100,000 for charities TYLER LOWEY Morning Star Staff

It was off the ice and into the heat as Predator Ridge Golf Resort hosted 44 NHL players for the 23rd annual National Hockey League Players Association Summer Classic charity golf tournament Thursday afternoon. “It’s all about having fun, being with the guys and showing off the Okanagan and beautiful Predator Ridge,” said Ottawa Senators’ forward and Vernon native Curtis Lazar. Lazar got a new set of clubs this year and after a few rounds with them he says the 9-iron feels best in his hands. The NHLPA Golf Classic started in 1993 and has raised over $3.2 million for various charities. For Columbus Blue Jackets’ left winger Scott Hartnell, it was his second time attending the classic. “It’s always great getting out to these events to give back to charities,” said Hartnell, who claims his golf game is sporadic and inconsistent at times. He brought teammate Cam Atkinson out for the event. The tourney will generate $100,000 for various charities as chosen by the NHL players. The event was a charity challenge with four captains: Shane Doan, David Booth, Andrew Ference and Hartnell. The top

For some players, it was the first time on the links this summer. The Arizona Coyotes’ captain, Doan, has been a busy dad this offseason with four kids, but was excited to get on the course with his friends. “Being from the Interior, it’s nice for the NHLPA to come out and bring all these players out to

help the community and a lot of charities,” said Doan. The two-day event wraps up today with the Community Celebration at Kal Beach from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. The Community Celebration will benefit the Vernon Jubilee Hospital Foundation. It is a family-friendly event with hockey equipment donations, stand-up paddleboarding races, live music by Andrew Allen and plenty of opportunities for autographs.

Camp cashes in on upgrades JENNIFER SMITH Morning Star Staff

MP Colin Mayes is greeted with smiles from Canadian Armed Forces in Vernon after announcing $3.3 million in infrastructure funds for the local camp Thursday.

The aging army camp infrastructure in Vernon is marching forward with some outstanding attention. Colin Mayes, Okanagan-Shuswap MP, announced $3.3 million in upgrades for the Canadian Armed Forces installation in Vernon Thursday. “There hasn’t been too much done for a long time so this is overdue,” said Mayes of the largest and oldest facility in Canada, whose buildings were built in 1941-42. “It has needed some tender loving care for quite some time and this is just the start.” Standing in front of one of the large hangars, the age might not be too apparent as the body appears in good shape, but it is missing some “guts.” “This building here, it’s a great old building, it’s solid, but

it doesn’t have any sprinkler capability,” said Mayes. “That could be catastrophic if there was a fire.” Another example Cpl. Jeff Daley points to is a lack of electronic capabilities. “Imagine there is a domestic response, we don’t have the server capability, the electrical guts.” Such funds will better prepare the local CAF, which serves as a staging post if there is an earthquake in the Lower Mainland or if civilians need to be taken in, in the event of a major fire. But the main function the camp serves is as a home to the B.C. Dragoons and the Vernon Cadet Training Centre. “The reserves here in Vernon, in my opinion, are an after thought,” said Daley, of the lack of attention. “But our footprint here is actually doubling.

Search continues to find Curtis Wilson JENNIFER SMITH

Morning Star Staff

ven though she knows it’s unlikely, Shanna Wilson still checks Facebook multiple times a day in hopes of finding a response from her missing brother. “The worst part right now is not knowing. The police evidence is there, but you can’t accept it until you know, without a doubt,” said Wilson, whose brother’s body is believed to be in Kalamalka Lake. Curtis Wilson was travelling with Shane Letkeman, whose body was discovered in the lake June 28, and Wilson’s car was found in the area. “All evidence says that Curtis is still in the lake,” said Shanna, Curtis’ younger sister. Although the investigation continues, the RCMP have completed their water and land search. But the family, from Lethbridge, Alta. (where Curtis resided), desperately needs the search to continue, in order to find closure. “It’s hard because I don’t even think about what happened that night anymore, all I think about is finding my brother,” said Shanna.

Curtis Wilson’s sister Shanna is desperate to find her missing brother, who is believed to be in Kalamalka Lake, to provide closure for her and the family. “We need closure.” While grateful for all the work the RCMP have done, the family is moving ahead with hopefully hiring a company which works

with families after police have exhausted their own resources to find people in the water. Gene and Sandy Ralston and Associates, of Idaho, have located

98 people since 2000. “I’ve just heard about their excellent services and I’m trying everything in my power to find my brother,” said Shanna, adding that they use a different kind of sonar equipment which can see up to 900 feet, whereas police equipment can only go to approximately 130 feet. Efforts have been initiated via GoFundMe to raise the necessary funds to bring the Ralstons to Vernon and hopefully bring some closure to the family. “We don’t know exactly how much we need,” said Shanna. “My rough estimate is around $6,000, but any money that doesn’t go to our search, will go to the Ralstons, who do not charge for their time. They only charge for their expenses. “It really all depends on how long Gene and Sandy Ralston spend on the lake to search. It could be a day, it could be many days.” The family has no idea why Curtis was in Vernon, as their last contact with him was June 27. Curtis, who also has a younger brother, is known to be an outdoorsy person, but his disappearance is unlike him, said Shanna. “He loves his family, we’re all

Long overdue funds benefit hundreds Continued from A1 “Afghanistan is over, now we need to take care of the home front.” Mayes admits that the funding has taken too long but the federal government is getting on with the job to support the CAF at home. Upgrades locally will include replacing siding, windows, roofing, flooring,

repainting, re-leveling, upgrading of washrooms, repaving of select roads, fencing improvement and fire protection upgrades. The project is expected to be completed in 2017, and will be sourced out to private contractors. “This community has a long and successful military history,” said Mayes, adding that hundreds of youth come to Vernon from across Canada to take part in the

cadet training. “In fact at times the number of military personnel have surpassed that of the community.” Daley adds: “When people think about Vernon, they think about cadets.” The federal funds are part of $135 million invested over the next two years at armouries across Canada, which support the creation of more than 10,000 jobs.

very close, his niece and nephews, he doesn’t like worrying people,” she said. “He’s a good person with a huge heart. Extremely loyal.” The Wilsons recently returned home after a week in Vernon during the search. Although the RCMP’s physical search is over, they continue to follow up on leads and say any further evidence could bring them back to the lake. “We have completed our land and water searches but that’s not to say that we won’t return to the water,” said RCMP spokesperson Gordon Molendyk. The Wilsons appreciate the RCMP’s efforts. “They’ve had divers with sonar equipment out twice, search and rescue multiple times, as well as helicopters and police dogs,” said Shanna. “Police investigators say that they have no reason to believe that my brother left Kalamalka Lake on June 27. They strongly believe that he is in the water. But, their water resources don’t compare to what the Ralstons use.” To help the family bring the extra resources in, visit the Search for Curtis Wilson page on GoFundMe at http://www. gofundme.com/yubybs

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 Warwick Sears growth could continue to get worse if climate change leads to more early, warm 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, James Littley 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 new infested areas in Kelowna and Littley suspects that may be partly from sediment from Mission Creek 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. “Other aquatic weeds are also early and dense this year, which may increase public perception that milfoil is an issue,” said Littley in a report. “However, we are not permitted to target other species and several thickly weeded areas are not infested with milfoil specifically.”

minister was forced to defend his government’s handling of First Nations issues. While speaking to the Greater Vernon Chamber of Commerce Wednesday, MacKay was interrupted by Falkland resident Angie Todd-Dennis. “You are talking about equality. You refuse to look at the missing and murdered aboriginal women. We are not on your radar,” she said. A First Nations woman, Todd-Dennis is originally from Fort St. James, which is off of Highway 16, also known as the Highway of Tears because of the number of women who have died or disappeared along the route. “Some of these people were my relatives. Please tell me the truth,” she said to MacKay. In response, MacKay said, “We hold offenders responsible.” Outside of the room, Todd-Dennis said she couldn’t miss an opportunity to challenge federal policies. “He talks about equality but it’s all lies. There is no equality when you can’t provide justice to your first peoples,” she said.

LISA VANDERVELDE/MORNING STAR

Justice Minister and Attorney General Peter MacKay speaks at the Greater Vernon Chamber of Commerce lunch Wednesday at the Best Western Vernon Lodge. “He’s a lemming. They’ve been following that cold fish, their leader.” Speaking to the media, MacKay says he has empathy for ToddDennis and her concerns. “Not only is the government responding, we are doing so in a substantial way,” he said, adding that a number of departments have initiated policies that improve the lives of First Nations people. “All we can do is make important investments and changes.” However, MacKay insists there is not a need for an inquiry into

missing and murdered aboriginal women because the matter has been investigated thoroughly and action has been taken. “We have a comprehensive RCMP report that speaks to that issue.” While speaking to the chamber at the Best Western Vernon Lodge, MacKay also touched on the federal government’s economic record and increasing global trade. “We have already achieved a level of free trade with South Korea but add China, Japan and Malaysia. Canadian businesses will add

market share, I’m convinced of that.” He also spoke of the need to lower taxes for families and businesses as a way of stimulating economic activity. “Every big business started off in a smaller marketplace and expanded.” While in Vernon, MacKay also announced $350,000 for a child and youth advocacy centre. It is expected that the North Okanagan CYAC will open in 2015 and serve more than 250 children and youth per year. “It brings a number of services into one office to serve the broader community,” said MacKay. Child and youth advocacy centres will help child and youth victims and their families navigate the criminal justice system. “This funding will allow us to open a child and youth advocacy centre to serve children and youth who have been physically abused or sexually assaulted or have witnessed a crime such as domestic violence,” said Brooke McLardy, with the North Okanagan Child and Youth Advocacy Centre Partnership.

Another campfire ignites alert RICHARD ROLKE Morning Star Staff

Illegal campfires continue to be a problem for authorities. Vernon firefighters doused a campfire in the 3500 block of 24th Avenue at 10:19 p.m. Tuesday. “The crew was coming back from a call and they smelled it (smoke),” said Jack Blair, deputy fire chief. “They did a drive around and found it in a backyard.” The individual who started the fire was apparently using it to cook wieners. Despite a campfire ban, this was the third incident of open burning in 24 hours. One of these was in a heavily wooded area on Eastside Road and the other one was in a backyard and the resident went to bed and forgot to extinguish the blaze. While some residents may not follow the media

and be aware of the campfire ban, Blair insists the public needs to be aware of the conditions around them. “It’s hot out and there’s smoke in the sky.” Because of problems with the ban being ignored, Vernon firefighters may begin stepping up action in conjunction with city bylaw enforcement officers. “We are going to look at issuing tickets,” said Blair. Besides Vernon, all North Okanagan municipalities and regional districts have banned campfires, as well as the Okanagan Indian Band and Splatsin First Nation. A provincial ban is in place for open fires of any size, industrial burning, fireworks, tiki torches, sky lanterns and burning barrels. It covers all B.C. Parks and Crown land. Anyone who observes a campfire or a wildland fire is asked to call 911 or the Ministry of Forests at 1-800-663-5555 (5555 on a mobile device).

Track name up for grabs RICHARD ROLKE Morning Star Staff

The name won’t necessarily be the name at the new track. The Greater Vernon Advisory Committee agreed Thursday to name the track and sports field next to the college Greater Vernon Athletics Park but only on an interim basis. “The opportunity is there to have naming rights available to businesses and sponsors. It’s a viable option,” said director Doug Dirk. Staff had recommended the Greater Vernon Athletics Park to acknowledge to role of residents in development of the facility, but Dirk urged the board to take a different direction. “Taxpayers are looking to see that the park is well managed and the costs are minimum.” Dirk believes corporations will be interested in having their name associated with the facility as special events will increase their exposure. “Look at Kal Tire Place,” he said. Opposition to Dirk’s motion came from director Gyula Kiss. “Taxpayers should be recognized first,” said Kiss of the $7.8 million that has gone towards construction. Juliette Cunningham, GVAC chairperson, believes name sponsorship could be beneficial. “Taxpayers prefer that we get any revenue possible to reduce the impact on taxpayers. It’s good to keep options open,” she said.

There was a potentially explosive situation during dry conditions in Lumby. At 10:04 p.m. Tuesday, the Lumby Fire Department called the RCMP to Catt Avenue and Glencaird Street because it appeared that a Molotov cocktail was thrown. “Our officer attended and spoke to the person who called in reporting the fire burning,” said Gord Molendyk, RCMP spokesperson. The incident had initially been reported to firefighters as a grass fire. The officer seized some evidence for identification purposes. “The file is still under investigation and there was no real damage or injuries,” said Molendyk.

Live like you are dying

e’ve all done it – watched the birds soaring in the vast sky, meanwhile wishing we too could feel the wind beneath our wings. The urge to fly is a universal human trait. From Icarus, of Greek mythology, to young babes being tossed in the air, we are exhilarated by the feeling. Obviously a fear of heights prevents some from displaying their enthusiasm. But others crave the adrenaline that flight offers. My uncle is one of those junkies who is addicted to soaring with the birds. Although he just recently got his first airJennifer Smith plane, he has been flying for years. Only thing is, he’s not strapped into a seat, or holding the controls of a plane, he is jumping out of them. Yep, that crazy sky-diving uncle of mine has been flying with the aid of a parachute since 1993. My mom never understood why her little brother insisted on jumping out of perfectly good airplanes. But in the end, she too considered the idea. I’ve never really had that consuming urge to sky dive or anything “crazy” like that, but after losing my mom, it’s one of those things that I thought I should give a whirl. You know, a tick off the old bucket list sort of deal. So just like it was no big deal, I jumped out of an airplane two weeks ago. I was on a family vacation, heading to Vancouver Island to see that crazy uncle of mine and my aunt, who recently opened Skydive Vancouver Island. We had just pulled into town and called them when my aunt nonchalantly asked if I wanted to do a jump. “Now?” I asked, as the sun was starting to set and we were a little worn from the drive. And sure enough, the minute we rolled up to the airport she had me signing the waiver. It was a Sunday, the final day of an event they were supporting called Jump for a Cure,

which involved raising money for a dragon boat team of breast cancer survivors (Angels Abreast). It was the last jump of the night and Aunty Allison wanted to end the event with a bang. Since I had lost my mom to cancer, and she is a very recent breast cancer survivor, what better way than to have the pair of us make the final plunge. And note that neither of us had ever tandem sky dived before (she has jumped but never gone that high, which is a benefit you have with tandem). Decked in her Kick Cancer’s Butt shirt, and me in pink, we geared up, loaded the plane and were instantly in awe. The view from the small aircraft was incredible. The island’s shore was surrounded by the ocean’s inlet and we could even see Mt. Baker in the far distance. I was a ball of nerves, still in disbelief that I was about to do this, and ready to pull the plug at any minute as I wore my “Uncle Gordy backpack,” as my little cousin calls it. As the plane climbed in altitude, finally reaching 10,000 feet, the door swung open and I screamed for my aunt as she and Dennis (the fun-loving tandem instructor, who like my uncle is a certified expert skydiver), plummeted out of the plane. Before I knew it, it was our turn and in one swift motion we too rolled out of the door into the vast sky. You know those dreams you have where you’re falling and you wake up panicked. Well, it’s just like that, except you don’t wake up – because it’s not a dream. The gut-wrenching feeling of falling may be tough to handle, but at the same time, it is so exhilarating and unlike any other rush. When the parachute finally opens after 30 seconds of free falling, your heart is racing as you realize you are still alive and in an aweinspiring place that is so quiet, distant and amazingly unbelievable. The views, especially being on the island, were unforgettable. As was the entire experience. I got a little closer to heaven that day, and a little closer to my mom. I can’t wait to do it again (thanks Uncle Gord)!

As shocking as it is, some people are not getting the message about the current dry conditions in the North Okanagan and the very real fire risk that exists. Within a 24-hour period, Vernon firefighters responded to three incidents of open burning or campfires despite their being a much publicized ban in place. In one of these cases, the fire was in a heavily wooded area on Eastside Road, while another one was in a backyard and the resident forgot to extinguish the campfire before climbing into bed. And the problem isn’t just in Vernon. On Tuesday night, the Lumby Fire Department was called to what was believed to be a grass fire at Catt Avenue and Glencaird Street. However, it is now suspected that someone had thrown a Molotov cocktail. Luckily, none of these incidents caused damage, but the potential was there as ground fuels are extremely dry and conditions will continue to get worse until some significant, steady rain falls in the region. There will be some who insist they aren’t aware of the campfire ban because they don’t follow the media, but that’s an excuse. All they have to do is look around and see the brittle grass to know that things are dry. Or smell and see the smoke in the air and you will soon know that wildfires are the reality in the Interior. Some people may question the need for campfire bans but it’s because of individuals who carelessly put themselves and their neighbours at risk that rules are required. If you spot a fire of any kind, do your part for the community and immediately call 911 or the Ministry of Forests at 1-800-6635555.

Water woes in the spotlight

've followed the debate about our water supply and its costs with great interest. While I very much respect the concerns expressed in this paper, I think many people in Vernon are missing some of the critical issues. So I’m going to jump in at the proverbial deep end. First, our most critical issue is to ensure an adequate and clean supply of fresh water as we face declining snowpack, possibly lower rainfall and hotter summers due to global warming. Whether we like it or not, our current system is designed to be fed by an adequate snowpack that melts slowly between April and June. This is at risk of becoming a memory, and we will face increased costs to re-jig the system to deal with changing conditions, regardless if we think our current water bill is too high. Second, many letter writers have taken Interior Health to task for insisting on more stringent quality standards. I don’t think Interior Health is the bad guy it's made out to be. But its PR department seems to be asleep at the switch. I attended a couple of the open houses last year when the master water plan was discussed and it was made quite clear that the new standards are in fact national standards, and B.C. is dragging its feet to deploy them compared to many other provinces. The new standards were a result of the Walkerton disaster in Ontario in 2000. There is much online material about the subject. Third, we need to do a better job of conserving water as we use more per capita than pretty well any other region of Canada and we also live in one of Canada’s hottest and driest areas. For example, we need to ban lawn irrigation when CANDIDATE RESPONDS I must reply to Conservative candidate Mel Arnold’s assertion that the Harper government “can be trusted to manage Canada’s finances through the toughest of economic times while still encouraging investment and growth for the future.” Specifically, Mr. Arnold points to the most recent federal budget, which he suggests was balanced. Balance, apparently, is a measure of opinion. Stephen Harper and his, “accountable cabinet ministers and staff,” balanced the budget by selling off about $3.4 billion of shares the Canadian people held in General Motors, raiding the Employment Insurance fund,

weather conditions are too hot and sunny and use our bylaw officers to enforce these regulations rather than persecuting folks downtown whose parking meters have run out. Similarly, we need to look at agricultural water costs. An article I just read from the University of Manitoba suggested that evaporation losses from overhead irrigation sprays in hot and sunny weather can range from 15 to 45 per cent. If local farmers can afford to waste this percentage of water for several hours a day in summer, it suggests that the cost of our irrigation water is too low or water officials don’t actually want farmers to conserve water. I’m confused about our intended water policy for agriculture as there are frequent calls for conservation but they are not backed up by billing changes to actually encourage behaviour changes. If I was a farmer, I’d see no reason to shut off the spigot when it’s hot and sunny in the afternoon.

and then tipping the scale by slashing its contingency fund by $2 billion in each of the next three years. In household terms, the government broke even by selling the hockey card collection, pilfering the allowance to be paid to the kids when they weren’t working, and withdrawing a bunch of money from the bank — including two-thirds of the savings the family was to put away next year and the year after. The lack of balance to this latest federal budget was also manifest in who will benefit from the tax changes delivered by the Tories and who will not. Doubling contribution limits to tax-free saving accounts, introduc-

So water officials and council members, is there or isn’t there a consumption concern? Finally, there is the issue of cost. We need to look at the cost per litre of treated water that comes out of our entire system. Not what you are billed, but what it costs the water utility to deliver it to your house through the pipes. If that’s in line with costs in similar communities in our region then we are doing fine. If it’s way over then we do have a problem. Whether or not we choose to bill all of the cost through water meter bills or as a mix of property taxes and water bills is then a political decision. I agree some historic decisions were made that seem to increase costs, such as using treated water for farm irrigation, but I understand that decision was made decades ago when the Grey Canal was retired. The cost to twin pipes to undo that misguided decision will cost many millions. The defeated master water plan recommended a gradual approach to tackling the problem. It would be nice to see some real facts come out from our water utility and council on this subject so we can vote based on facts rather than opinions. I fear that this letter may have contributed to the hot air in the valley and just helped to evaporate more precious water. Joking aside, we need to do a better job of stewardship of the land and resources for our children and their children. One does wonder what the mayor and his counterparts from BX and Coldstream are doing about this. The silence is deafening. Ritchie Leslie

ing income splitting and delivering a universal child care benefit to every family, no matter its income, is not going to be of any help to a cashstrapped household. Remember, consumer debt to income ratio is running at a record high in Canada at 163 per cent. Readers should also remember the Conservatives rang up almost $150 billion in deficits over the last seven years before delivering a paltry suspect $1.4 billion surplus. That doesn't sound like balance to me. Voters looking for real balance would do well to consider the New Democrats. A New Democratic government

will reduce the Conservative reliance on fossil fuels by building a new energy economy. It will establish sector-specific programming to ensure the longterm viability of our manufacturing industry and it will push for buy Canadian procurement policies and encourage Canadian ownership and control of our major industries. The federal New Democrats pledge to provide for balance in meaningful and sensible ways — principles instead of politics, progress instead of profits, and plain talk instead of propaganda. Jacqui Gingras, NDP candidate, North Okanagan - Shuswap

STICKLE SOLUTION Jo Jones nailed it. The highway roundabouts we use in Australia are double-lane and work extremely well. On their busy times, the light-controlled intersections are backed up half-a-kilometre while the roundabouts are only a couple blocks maximum. It seems like all of the new highway work I see there incorporates roundabouts and I've never seen an accident in one. Let's try one out. George Ricketts

Starting Saturday, the RCMP marine unit will start a voluntary vessel safety pre-check at the Paddlewheel Park boat launch. “This initiative will help speed up our checks on the water” said Cst. Steve Scott. Boaters can complete a pre-launch inspection of all the items required under the Canada Shipping Act along with regulations governing pleasure craft. After the check is completed, a document will be presented to the operator who is then able to produce it if they are stopped by the RCMP. “This is a preventative and teaching measure that not only assists the RCMP members on the water but gives the vessel operator the opportunity to correct any deficiencies they might have prior to starting out on the water,” said Scott.

Fines under the act include $250 for failure to have the required pleasure craft license on board and $200 for operating a vessel with safety equipment not in good working order or not readily accessible and available for immediate use. Some boating offences can result in fines to both the operator of the boat and the individual who allowed the operation of the boat. An example of this would be allowing someone under the age of 16 to operate your personal water craft.

Driver and cyclists are being cautioned to keep their eyes peeled for each other after yet another cyclist was struck in Vernon Wednesday. “We need cyclists and operators to be aware of each other,” said RCMP spokesperson Gord Molendyk.

“We’ve had three or four in the last week or two.” The latest incident involved a Vernon driver and a cyclist in the 4200 block of 27th Avenue at around 6:45 p.m. “The driver of a white van was coming out of an alley to turn right. Just as he pulled forward he struck the cyclist,” said Molendyk.

The cyclist was taken to the hospital as a precaution and minor injuries were sustained. “No charges are being issued at this time,” said Molendyk. Tuesday’s incident follows a tragic accident last week. Cyclist Jennifer Wadsworth died of injuries after she collided with a pickup truck July 2 on 25th Avenue.

Housing construction remains strong in Vernon. The Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation reports there were 38 starts in June compared to 12 during the same month in 2014.

Former Shuswap MLA George Abbott is no longer a member of the B.C. Liberal Party. “This is a something I have been thinking about for a while,” he said, pointing out most people are not mem-

bers of political parties and he was simply not renewing his membership. “If I am going to be a member of a political party, I want to be excited, interested and engaged but I do not find myself being any of those things in the world of politics.” Abbott did admit that the government’s 11th hour cancellation of his appointment as chief commissioner to the B.C. Treaty Commission was the final piece in his

“I’m on a different track now.”

— George Abbott decision to not renew his membership. Abbott held several senior cabinet posts during his 17 years as Shuswap MLA, including health, education and aboriginal portfolios from 2001 to 2004 and 2010 to 2011.

He retired from government in 2013 following an unsuccessful bid for leader of the party and began pursuing his PhD at the University of Victoria. Last fall, John Rustad, aboriginal relations minister, asked Abbott to assume the role of chief commissioner of the B.C. Treaty Commission upon the retirement of Sophie Pierre on April 1. Excited by the prospect of taking on leadership of a process he cares deeply about, and an appointment that had garnered First Nations’ support, Abbott was

advised on March 18 that the government was moving in a new direction and his services were not required. “I remain entirely puzzled as to what the new direction is that the premier was talking about in April,” he says, noting he has never been given an explanation about what that new direction is or why his appointment would have been inconsistent with that direction. “It remains troubling to me that it was done without a lot of consideration of a policy in what I consider to be an important area. There’s more to it than that.” Academically, Abbott has a second set of comprehensive exams in October and a 200page dissertation on the provincial government during the Gordon Campbell era to write. An article he has written on the introduction of the harmonized sales tax in B.C. and Ontario will appear this summer in B.C. Studies, a quarterly publication dedicated to the exploration of B.C.’s cultural, economic and political life, past and present. “I suspect I will be non-partisan for the balance of my life…” he said. “I’m on a different track now, political science, and I do public policy work, so I actually think it’s an advantage to not have that partisan involvement.”

Phil Lambert, Bean Scene Coffee House owner, and his staff wanted to find a way for their friends and patrons to leave a mark on their favourite coffee house. And they wanted to help kids and families in need. With that, the Bean Scene’s Love Locks Buy A Lock, Share The Love program, which helps raise funds for the North Okanagan Youth and Family Services Society (NOYFSS), began. “We chose this project because it’s an easy, fun and timeless way to give back,” said Lambert. Patrons leave their mark on the love lock wall at the back of the facility on 30th Avenue by purchasing a lock and dedicating it to their true love. In return, the Bean Scene donates the proceeds to NOYFSS and its programs. “Locks are priced to be accessible to anyone so everyone can participate,” said Lambert. The locks are purchased from a Bean Scene barista, gets decorated and dedicated to a true love and is attached to the love lock wall. Couples then make a wish and toss the lock’s key into the Bean Scene wine barrel for good luck. The love lock is a tradition used by friends and lovers all over the world as a testimony to true love. The tradition originated in Serbia during the First World War. Since Lambert and staff launched the program on Oct. 7, 2014, it has raised more than $24,000 to date. “The program designates funds to NOYFSS,” said Dean Francks, director of business and fund

development for NOYFSS. The first phase of the projected supported the rebuild of NOYFSS’ residential youth home, Mara House, on 27th Street. The second phase is now starting, and funds are earmarked for youth skill building and educational groups. “The funding allows NOYFSS to offer these services at no cost to the participant, and they’re open to the entire community,” said Francks. Since April, the Bean Scene ran a contest to create awareness of the love lock program. Participants were encouraged to complete an image made up of six different coffee sleeve inserts that were randomly issued throughout the contest period. When finished, participants submitted their work and were entered into a draw for an antique love lock. Contest winners were Brian Kratsch, Kevin Smart, Alexis Williamson, Christine Kashuba, Mary-Jo O’Keefe and Emma Massey. All contest participants who completed the image with sleeve inserts will be awarded an honourary love lock. The Bean Scene, celebrating its 25th year as a roaster, has initiated Throwback Thursdays. On Thursdays until November, coffee will be sold at the 25-year-old price of $1 per coffee, with 100 per cent of the sales going towards NOYFSS’ programs. There is also a silent art auction underway throughout July, where art has been donated by local artists and is on display at the Bean Scene. Again, all proceeds go to NOYFSS.

Tigers thump Rocks in Game 1 Pospisil out TYLER LOWEY Morning Star Staff

The Vernon Source for Sports Tigers put their foot on the gas, moved into the fast lane and were never seen from again when Thomas Landels scored on a breakaway in the second period. The Tigers ambushed the Armstrong Shamrocks 19-6 in Game 1 of the best-of-five opening round Thompson Okanagan Junior Lacrosse League playoffs Tuesday night at Kal Tire Place. The Shamrocks scored 31 seconds into the first when Keith Minnis buried a powerplay marker. “I was definitely a little nervous at the start,” said Tigers’ netminder Aaron Jensen. “The regular season is one thing, but the playoffs are another season.” The Tigers’ offence had their goalie’s back, however, as they responded with five straight goals in a span of 8:56 for a 7-2 lead after the first frame. “Not really the start to the playoffs we were looking for,” said Shamrocks’ assistant coach Chad Pieper. “It was a tough one, we battled hard, but in order to beat these guys, you got to be perfect. And we were far from perfect.” The shots were tied at 19 after the first, but the Tigers poured it on with 28 shots in the second. “We did a great job moving the ball around and getting to loose balls,” said Landels. “We were able to control most of the game that way.” TYLER LOWEY/MORNING STAR The second period was highlighted by a spirited Brayden Hoggarth of the Armstrong Shamrocks gets sandwiched by Vernon Tiger fight between the Tigers’ Quintin Harrish and the defenders Tre Mason (left) and Braden Barr during Game 1 of the Thompson Shamrocks’ Todd Hoggarth.

of Davis Cup Tennis Canada/Canadian Press

Tennis Canada announced Thursday that No. 2 singles player and recent Wimbledon quarterfinalist Vasek Pospisil is unable to participate in the upcoming Davis Cup quarterfinal tie between Canada and Belgium due to a severe bone bruise to his right wrist. His place on the team will be filled by a player to be determined by captain Martin Laurendeau. “I’m beyond disappointed to not be able to play this tie,” said Pospisil, a Vernon native. “I’ve been advised today by doctors to take two, three weeks off to avoid any further damage to my wrist. “Playing Davis Cup has always been and remains extremely important to me. I feel terrible as this is a big tie for our team and I was looking forward to doing my part to help us get to the semifinals. I believe in this team and I will be watching and cheering them on.” Pospisil is coming off a career-best performance at a Grand Slam after reaching his first ever quarterfinal at Wimbledon. He earned US$374,000. Canada’s No. 1 singles player Milos Raonic is also unavailable for the tie due to lingering effects from foot surgery. Frank Dancevic, Daniel Nestor and Filip Peliwo are ready for the tie, scheduled for July 17-19 at Sportpark Krokodiel in Ostend, Belgium. Pospisil lost to Great Britain’s Andy Murray in three sets on a wet Wednesday, with the Canadian going out 6-4, 7-5, 6-4 after an exhausting 10 days of grass-court tennis at the All England Club. “I played a lot of tennis, how much that affected the match is hard to say,” said Pospisil. “But I definitely started feeling a little bit heavy, especially that third set. “I played, I don’t know, 31 sets in seven days or something like that. Then you’re going to play Andy, who plays long rallies. Obviously I would have liked to have been more fresh, but it’s still been a great week, just the beginning.” Pospisil, stretched to five sets in three of his five singles matches, began feeling his legs against Murray. Pospisil and American partner Jack Sock were defeated last week as they defended their 2014 doubles title,.

Orchard high on BMX ROGER KNOX Morning Star Staff

Attending and competing in the Canadian National BMX finals rates 10 out of 10, says Vernon’s Shylo Orchard. And the Vernon BMX Club president and coach should know. Orchard, 38, has been to countless nationals in Canada and the U.S., and is working tirelessly with her club as the Vernon BMX Club will host Canadian Nationals July 17-19 at Ranger Park off 20th Street. “In my experience, it’s a 10,” said Orchard, a certified education assistant who began BMX riding as a kid, then, after becoming a mother, picked up the sport again 10 years ago when her sons, Landon and Jared Fitt, wanted to ride. “It’s a 10 because of the sportsmanship. I know people that I never see or communicate with unless I go to nationals and then it’s almost like a reunion of BMX friendships. It’s the camaraderie, and the high-fives you get from the other riders at the end of a race is fantastic.” Orchard is coming off a 2014 season where, as a competitor, she won the Canadian Grand Nationals for her age group and was the top Canadian woman overall. She also went to the U.S. Grand Nationals in Tulsa, where she won the Race of Champions (Orchard was the only Canadian in her group with competitors from all over the U.S. and Australia), and claimed the North American Age Group Title. Most of her 2015 has been busy promoting the local club and getting ready for the nationals. BMX racing, said Orchard, gives riders so many opportunities to win. “You can win at your local club, win in your district, PHOTO SUBMITTED win the province, win your national age group which Shylo Orchard of Vernon with her 2014 Girl Cruiser Championship awards. allows you to compete against people your own age at

other nationals, or you can win national overall. For us to pull in a national event gives new riders a chance to experience the event, experience the trophies, which are huge, and watch the expertise. The 12-year-old expert riders will blow your mind. “And there’s nothing cooler than seeing a kid win a trophy that is twice their size and could literally knock them over.” The trophy Orchard won for winning the U.S. Grand National was more than seven-feet tall. The nationals at Ranger Park will be free to spectators and, as Orchard points out with a big grin, there is an “amazing, inexpensive concession” on site. The Vernon Club has about 180 members who get superb, free coaching from Orchard and fellow coaches Dean Botterill, Chris Spence and Brenden Davies. “We coach every Monday free of charge with membership to all of our riders,” said Orchard. “It’s quite cool how we have it broken down, and people try to duplicate our program. When we tell people our coaching is free, they fall out of their chairs.”’ Membership at Vernon BMX is $60 for a full calendar year. Ranger Park has been voted one of the top-20 BMX tracks in North America. “Our goal this year has been to unlock the potential to participate,” said Orchard. “It’s the ultimate family sport. You don’t even have to have to ride a bike to participate in the club. “We are a club where everyone can participate no matter what the level or ability, one that builds confidence and self-esteem and no one rides the bench. It’s an individual sport but with the feeling of being part of one big team.” New club members are accepted every Monday through to October. Race nights Tuesday are free.

Vipers get Ferner Morning Star Staff

The Vernon Vipers have swapped defencemen with the West Kelowna Warriors, getting Mac Ferner for Mitch Meek. Ferner is a hard-nosed, shot-blocking veteran. The 6-foot-1, 185-pound Vernon product had two goals and 11 points with 57 penalty minutes in 49 games, his second year in the B.C. Hockey League Meek leaves the Vipers after just one season in which he played 50 games and recorded 16 points. “This trade will reunite Mac with his father Mark, who is in his second tenure as the head coach of the Vipers,” said Viper assistant GM Todd Miller. “It will be the first time that Mark has ever coached his son in organized hockey at any level and both are looking forward to it.”

Squires run by VQA 6-0 Morning Star Staff

The Squires Four Pub iced Vernon Square Liquor Store VQA 6-0 in North Okanagan Women’s Soccer Association play Tuesday night at Marshall Field #1. It was a scorcher on the pitch, kind of like playing soccer inside a hair dryer. Squires grabbed the first goal on a 25-yard boot from Barb Levesque. Jacquie Hansen tapped in a pass from Irene Arrotta five minutes later. The game went back and forth as VQA missed on a few attempts. Jen Hatten and Harmony Crockett supplied brilliant crosses, while Cheryl Roddis, Sue McKinnon, Gail Atha and Sue Barss created many chances but couldn’t get one to fall. Karen Benn did a great job in net under the relentless Squires’ attack. Leah Frye put the pub crew up by three by burying a cross from Arrotta. After the first-half water break, Lori Shippy converted a corner from Jennie Currie, just past the TYLER LOWEY/MORNING STAR outstretched arms of Benn.

Douma delivers

Morning Star Staff

Turn-Key Controls had no subs but managed to steal a 2-1 win over Revelstoke Stallions in North Okanagan Soccer League play Wednesday night in Salmon Arm. Keeper Gregg Douma, named Nolan’s Pharmasave Man of the Match, was marvellous as he stymied Revelstoke on multiple scoring chances. Douma also set up the opening goal, sending a gorgeous ball over the top to Preston Tucker who headed it over the keeper to give Turn-Key the early lead. Just before the half, Revelstoke (5-6) put on some pressure and had a cross deflected in by a striker. Turn-Key began fading in the heat and Revelstoke enjoyed a second-half advantage with no success. In the last 10 minutes, Turn-Key (6-4-1) started to create chances and gained a corner. Andrew Pool played the ball onto the penalty spot and Revelstoke won the header straight to Turn-Key’s Evan Moore at the top of the 18. Moore made a move and nailed a left footer, bottom corner, for the win. North Enderby Timber ambushed the Salmon Arm Outlaws 7-0 on a much improved Marshall Field pitch. Brent Poulsen opened the scoring in the 10th minute, besting a defender in close before beating the keeper.

Poulsen added an identical tally five minutes later after some hard work from Simplyfrugal.ca Man of the Match Evan Frederick. Frederick then scored a deuce on identical breakaways, fooling the keeper five-hole. Mike Bennett capped off the first half scoring with a well executed PK after he earned the foul being taken down from behind in the 18. Patrick Schindler and Finlay McPhie supplied second-half goals. Honorable mention went to Victor Gouchee, who earned the first-half shutout and then turned striker for the final 45, leading all players in shots on target with 10. NOD Eagle Homes shut down Peters Tirecraft 5-0 in the Shuswap. NOD (4-6-1) took the lead midway through the first half and scored three goals in a 15-minute span while Tirecraft was unable to get any of their shots on net. The second half was tightly contested with Eagle Homes burying two PKs and both teams trading chances. Riley Strothers moved to the back line for the shorthanded Tirecraft (1-7-1) and played his best game of the season for the Okanagan Training Rink Man of the Match honours. No result was available from the Monashee Surveying-Courvas game scheduled for Wednesday night in Salmon Arm.

Legends drop series Morning Star Staff

The North Okanagan Super 8 Legends finished their Thompson Okanagan Midget B2 Lacrosse League season with a pair of playoff losses Saturday in Merritt. The Legends played the host Nicola Valley Thunder in the opening game of the three-team event at Shulus Arena, and opened the scoring in the first period on a marker by Chase Bronson. It was the only goal the Legends would score in a 7-1 setback. Down to 11 runners, and with only a 90-minute break, North Okanagan had to play back-to-back games, facing Shuswap Outlaws of Salmon Arm. The Outlaws led 4-0 after one period and the Legends – who never quit in either contest – simply ran out of gas in the mid-day Merritt heat, falling 9-2. Dakota Campen and James Francis scored for North Okanagan, who, like they had been all season, were kept in the games by the outstanding play of goalie Jordie Scherck. The Legends thanked coaches Travis Mann, Harold Mann, Jim Point and Kent Connors, and manager Madeline Work, for their efforts all season as the team enjoyed snacks in between games.

Lionel Hoffman of Browns opened the scoring – his 10th of the season – with a patented breakaway on a pass from Tony Gonzales. Gord Brown’s low, driven corner was flicked in at the near post by Darryl Hazell a few minutes later to double the advantage. Silver Star came back when John Matejicka pounced on a rebound from a Mike Clarke shot. Just before half time, Nigel Clack’s quick free kick deflected off the back of David Howes and in for the equalizer. Brown’s Brad Heuser was fouled by Clarke in the box on a corner and Don Brown converted. Al Bensmiller, who was playing hurt, made some spectacular saves to earn the Antique Road Show Man of the Match for the Stars, with his best save coming on a hard mis-directed header by teammate Bill Graham.

Turn-Key Controls Ogopogos brushed back Brandt’s Creek Pub 2-1 in a card-filled Capri Insurance Men’s 45+ Soccer League game Monday night at Marshall Field #1. The Pogos opened with a solid early chance when Duane Dennis fed Brad Conlin, who sent a nifty one-touch to Mark Wasylyk for a breakaway. Wasylyk was stopped a few yards short of the net by a speedy Pubbers’ defender. Brandt’s Creek replied with quick runs down the side and shots on net that were handily picked out of the air by keeper Dan Ondzik except for one that bounced off the goal post. After another great run down the field and over the Brandt’s Creek keeper, Wasylyk ended up in a shoving match and was shown a red card. Now down a player, Dennis flashed some fancy dekes and moves inside the 18 but was shut down by the keeper at the last minute. Bryan Schenker of the Pogos (5-42) knocked down a loose ball with his face and finished for the 1-0 goal. Clint Dickinson unleashed a rocket just shy of the bar just before the recess. After the break, Brandt’s Creek came out physical and equalized when Ondzik went out too far and Brandt’s bagged an empty-netter. Schenker, named the Kal Sports Bar Man of the Match, beat the defence with a smooth pass from Ian Bos to make it 2-1. After yet more intensive physical

World junior cross-country champion Letesenbet Gidey of Ethiopia is a favourite in the 3000m at the International Association of Athletics Federation (IAAF) World Youth Championships, July 15-19, in Cali, Colombia. Gidey is 17 and just four years ago, was expelled from school for refusing to run in physical education classes. “I really did not like racing,” she told the IAAF. “I brought my parents to school to talk to the headmaster with the hope of getting reinstated. He agreed to reinstate me only if I ran for the school. I reluctantly agreed, just for the chance to get back to school.” Vernon’s Hannah Bennison, 15, will be running alongside the world champion in the 3,000. Bennison, coached by Nate Reider of Kelowna, left Thursday for Toronto. Team Canada – consisting of 26 females and 21 males – will gather in Toronto and then fly direct to Cali. At 90 pounds and “almost five feet”, the Grade 10 Bennison recently won the 3,000 in a record 9:33.44 in the Subway B.C. High School Track and Field Championships at Langley’s McLeod Athletic Park. The VSS student broke the 9:37.20 set in 1984 by Kelowna-Mt. Boucherie Bears’ runner Brenda Shackleton in 1984. Hannah’s mom, Anne, used to compete against Shackleton as a youngster. Glynis Sim of Salmon Arm, coached by John Machuga of the Vernon AAA Club, will compete in the 2,000m steeplechase. The World Youth Championships will feature more than 1,400 athletes from 156 countries, making it the biggest international athletics event to be held in South America. The 3,000 heats go Thursday morning with the finals set for the afternoon of Sunday, July 19. For Vashti Cunningham, sporting greatness is in the genes. The 17-year-old Las Vegas high jumper is an overwhelming favourite for gold, having cleared 1.94m already this year, which puts her four centimetres clear of her closest competitor outdoors. Cunningham’s dad, Randall, was an NFL star quarterback in the 1980s and 1990s. Her mother, Felicity, is a 5-foot-11 former professional ballerina with the Dance Theatre of Harlem. The pencil thin Vashti is just shy of 6-foot-1.

Moderately Confused

Bridge by Phillip Alder THE OPENING LEAD FROM THE BIDDING Fletcher Knebel, an author of political fiction, said, “Smoking is one of the leading causes of statistics.” When you play bridge, keeping some statistics is not a bad idea. For example, in a duplicate (or during a social game) note how many times your opponents went down two or more. If several, you did not double enough. How often do you find the best opening lead? Treat each one with care, though, because the “right” opening lead will not always turn out to be best in a given deal. After South opened one no-trump, North used Stayman. When South rebid two hearts, North’s slightly

aggressive jump to three no-trump announced a four-card spade holding and asked South to retreat to game in that suit if he also held four. Here, of course, South passed out three notrump. What should West lead? The books tell you to lead the top of three touching honours against a notrump contract. However, here, how are the spades distributed? North is known to have four, and South has two or three. This leaves East with two or one. If East has a singleton, the suit will be useless. West should hope that his partner has a doubleton, preferably honour-doubleton. And not to block the suit, West must lead the seven, fourth-

highest from his longest and strongest. Here, East should win with his ace and return the suit, which defeats the contract. The defenders must get four spades and one heart. Even if South wins with dummy’s spade king and runs diamonds, finessing through East, West can discard two hearts.

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 sounds are no longer naturally

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.

Caravan Farm Theatre introduces Endo, a blind Appaloosa, who stars in this summer’s The Night’s Mare Kristin Froneman Morning Star Staff

The Horse

They ride as one down through the pasture to where the stands are lined up, waiting for people to bear witness. The rider jumps off and makes a verbal command and taps the horse’s hindquarters, gently. With a swish of his tail, the slightly speckled white horse rears, his front legs straight up in the air like one of those gallant Lipizzaners from Spain. Another command from his owner, and he is bent down on those same legs, kneeling as if the Queen is standing before him. To say Endo is a special horse is an understatement. He is not only able to understand and perform more than 30 commands, he is fully attuned to his owner and trainer Morgan Wagner. She acts as Endo’s eyes since the Appaloosa gelding is completely blind. Even though he cannot differentiate between light and dark, Endo has acclimatized to many different situations, even competing in equitation events. “Many have said they have never met a horse like him,” said Wagner, who is currently with Endo in the North Okanagan for a unique reason. Endo is about to make his theatrical debut. He has travelled with Wagner from their home in Corvallis, Ore. to Armstrong to be part of Caravan Farm Theatre’s upcoming summer production of The Night’s Mare. “We were looking for a magical horse, a beautiful horse, so we started to look around and we heard about Endo,” said Courtenay Dobbie, Caravan’s artistic director, who is taking the reigns to direct The Night’s Mare. Endo may not be a traditionally beautiful horse, but his personality and abilities have impressed all who have met him. That includes The Night Mare’s playwright Kevin Kerr, the Governor General award winning author of Unity: (1918), who was at Caravan recently to observe the first rehearsal with Endo. “I can’t believe our luck. He’s perfect,” exclaimed Kerr, watching Endo lie down so Wagner could climb onto his back. Endo was gifted to Wagner by her grandmother 15 years ago before she moved

to Oregon from her hometown of San Bernadino, Calif. Sighted then, it was five years ago when Wagner noticed something was wrong with one of Endo’s eyes. “It was clouded and it was really puffy,” she said. A visit to the vet confirmed that Endo had equine recurring uveitis (ERU), also known as moon blindness. Unsure of the cause, the disease is a chronic, recurring inflammation of the uveal tract of the eye. It is also very painful, and the reason the vet decided to remove Endo’s infected eye, followed by the other eye nine months later when it suffered the same symptoms. “We had to work on Endo’s balance once his eyes were removed. He was quite dizzy and sedated,” said Wagner, who started retraining Endo to adapt to his situation. “He already knew some words before he lost his eyes, but he could no longer follow hand signals. Now he remembers words. He knows ‘jump,’ and if I say ‘leg’, he lifts his leg to say get on a bridge.” A little encouragement, and a taste of Endo’s favourite treats, also go a long way. “He loves soft mints,” said Wagner, adding, “He remembers where the walls in his stalls are and where his favourite place to roll around is. He smells his way around. At home, he has

Kristin Froneman /morninG star

Endo the Appaloosa, above and left, nuzzles and performs tricks for his owner/trainer Morgan Wagner during a rehearsal for Caravan Farm Theatre’s summer production of The Night’s Mare. a mini mare and a colt he loves to play with.” Endo’s theatrical debut is also fitting as he is now used to performing in front of crowds. Last year, he participated in his first show and competition at the Northwest Horse Expo All Breed Challenge and, thanks to a fundraising campaign, he and Wagner were able to attend the Andalusian World Cup in Las Vegas, where the crowds were amazed by his abilities.

The Legend

It all started with the story of a mythical, blind mare who was found drifting around a town not too unlike Armstrong. A young girl rescued the mare and they became the best of friends. She’d ride it at night and together they would have beautiful adventures.

However, her father didn’t like his daughter riding the horse at night, so he decided to capture it. It all goes horribly wrong when the horse, spooked, tramples the girl in her attempt to get away. She runs off into the woods. The townspeople think the horse is cursed, but the mare just wants to find another mate...

The Story

“(The Night’s Mare) is a comedic campfire tale, a thriller more than a horror,” explains director Dobbie in setting up the story. We meet Flo, a high school graduate and babysitter extraordinaire, who actually wants to train to be a magician and go on adventures.

Arts Simone is left to her solitude

nina Simone: Nina Revisted

he late jazz singer/ pianist, Nina Simone is honoured on a collection of her material, Nina Revisited. It is a tribute album led by Lauryn Hill. The complexity of Simone’s Dean Gordon-Smith output, including gospel, instrumentals, protest songs and proto jazz/R&B are connected by the conviction of her performance. Someone else’s presence is an elusive thing to capture and

Street SoundS

Simone is a complex character. The album reflects this, although for not the right reasons. Hill’s rapping excursions fall flat and the exclusion of Simone’s incendiary gospel/blues protest, Mississippi Goddamn, is disappointing. Simone’s civil rights work and classical music roots are hinted at but not highlighted. Some of the material catches fire. The slinky/spooky treatment Hill gives to Feeling Good and Jazmine Sullivan’s funk lament of Baltimore stand out. Gregory Porter’s cover of Sinnerman taps into the abstract expressionism of Simone’s style of soul music as does the dreamlike version of I Put a Spell on You, done by Alice Smith. However, Usher’s bland read-

ing of My Baby Cares Just For Me drags and Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood gets a lite cocktail jazz treatment despite Mary J. Blige’s performance. Hill’s work on Simone’s material is the most compelling, ranging from ambitious (Black is the Color of My True Love’s Hair) to abstract (Wild is the Wind) to indulgent (Ne Me Quitte Pas). Hill’s delivery is intense, and she reaches far into the each song’s content to bring the backstory to life. Uneven production upsets several songs on Nina Revisited and threatens to derail the consistency of the tribute. That’s an arrangement issue, though, and Nina Revisited brings the musician’s uncompromising integrity into focus and captures the spirit of some of her work.

Caravan brings legend of mythical horse to life Continued from B1 Flo’s dad, Buck, a horse trainer, thinks his daughter’s idea is smellier than a pile of manure. And mom, Melody, a musician, supports her daughter’s wishes. Buck is obsessed with finding the magical mare that has been spotted floating around in the woods. He thinks the horse is blind and lost and wants to help it. Meanwhile, Flo is getting ready to leave for Las Vegas the next day to pursue her dreams, when a Hollywood “supercouple” arrives at Buck’s farm and upends those plans. They want to film a movie about the mythical mare, whose legend has drifted across the border. They bring their troublesome and unruly young daughter with them, and Melody, trying to be helpful,

enlists Flo to look after her. Everything goes awry when the spoiled girl, seeking adventure, disappears into the woods.

Behind the scenes

The music sets the tone for The Night’s Mare. Leading the charge, with some familiar country and western tunes, is local guitarist Gaz Jordan (owner, with his wife, Heidi, of the popular Wild Oak Café in Armstrong) and a band of musicians. “We wanted people to recognize the songs to evoke a nostalgic feel. We wanted the audience to experience that Caravan Cookshack feel,” said Dobbie, referring to the many concerts – impromptu and organized – that have taken place at the farm’s dining hall. Also coming to be a part of the production, besides Endo, are nine human actors from all parts of Canada. Returning are some familiar faces, including Sarah May Redmond as Melody, who has acted and played her accordion in many productions at the farm, as well as two actors from last summer’s The Tragical Comedy of Punch and Judy: Lucy Hill (who played Pretty Polly), as Flo’s friend who takes over her babysitting business, and Daniel Maslany (Joey the Clown), as an aspiring musician named Gilmour who is in Melody’s band. Caravan Farm Theatre’s The Night’s Mare opens at the farm July 21 and runs most nights except Mondays at 7:30 p.m. to Aug. 23. Tickets and information are available at the Ticket Seller.

Stripped-down sequel Magic Mike XXL

agic Mike (Channing Tatum) and his team of exotic dancers, reform after a three year absence and hit the road for Myrtle Beach. We say, “There’s very little ‘why’ in Magic Mike Taylor and Howe XXL.” TAYLOR: I was surprised by Magic Mike XXL (now there’s a title!), not because I liked it, I didn’t, but because it wasn’t mind-numbingly stupid. Instead, it was just boring. Channing Tatum is a good dancer, from what I can tell. All of the men had muscled bods to ogle. I enjoyed some of the music to which these handsome devils gyrated. However, even if these men were replaced with women of similar aesthetics and talents, I think I would still find this film boring. HOWE: Well, I would say that would depend on which women were in it. I felt we were lucky to have missed the first movie, but this time our luck ran out. Yet, saying that feels a little cruel as it wasn’t that bad. The acting was fine, the storyline moved along at a steady pace and some of the choreography in the dance scenes was pretty good. TAYLOR: Here is the entire movie, summed up with no spoilers: “Hey, let’s go back to that big stripper convention and tear up the stage!” “OK.” They embark on a road trip, stopping to entertain crowds, public and

private. Along the way they work out the details of their routines and personal lives, of which no tales are particularly enthralling. When they arrive and show off their new stuff the film ends. Now, I don’t particularly mind that there were no tacked on B-stories to sum up, or that the film doesn’t really Channing Tatum have a beginning, middle, end nor tell an actual story, quite the opposite. There are plenty of decent slices of life to be had, perhaps just not this slice. HOWE: There are some funny moments in it. I can’t remember any, but they are there. There are also a few cameo roles for Jada Pinkett Smith, Andie MacDowell and Elizabeth Banks, whose role is similar to her’s from Pitch Perfect, but not as funny. As for the stripping crew, they didn’t seem to do much. Most of their routines looked like they came from a cheesy 1980s’ Chippendale dance recital. One of them even looked like he was still stuck in the ‘80s. TAYLOR: I didn’t find it funny, just noisy. The marketing for this film promised it was much funnier than the first. Magic Mike XXL is not funny. The stripping, while energetic, is like the film itself, lacking any real conclusion, so we are left with only a road trip to a stripper convention. – Taylor gives Magic Mike XXL 1.5 pushups out of 5. – Howe gives it 2.5 empty bottles of wine out of 5.

Road trip into history richard rolke Morning Star Staff

A historical journey awaits. A new passport program has been launched to promote 10 museums from Salmon Arm to Penticton and the Okanagan’s rich heritage. “We want to let locals and tourists know about the various historical sites in the Okanagan,” said Val Heuman, with the Okanagan Landing Stationhouse Museum and creator of the passport. “The valley is phenomenally historical and exemplifies the pioneer spirit.” Besides the Landing museum, the other participating museums are Armstrong-Spallumcheen, O’Keefe Ranch, Lumby, Vernon, Fintry, R.J. Haney Village in Salmon Arm, Lake Country, the SS Sicamous in Penticton and the B.C. Orchard Industry Museum in Kelowna. Other museums may be added if there is sufficient interest in the passport. “You can drive from Penticton to Salmon Arm and do the museum tour in one day,” said Heuman. “Many residents don’t know the history of the region.” And there is an incentive to visit all of the museums. “When you are finished and you get all of the stamps in your passport, you receive a certificate,” said Heuman. The passport also includes information on local cultural organizations and 11 hiking trails in the Greater Vernon area. It also has coupons from the publication’s six sponsoring businesses. The passport costs $1 and is available at all participating museums.

Ian Harwood

Bob McHugh

Ian Harwood has been involved in the light truck industry for the past 30 years. His career started with the opening of a small 4-wheel drive shop in the early 80s. This shop was involved in custom fabrication, complete 4x4 rebuilds, and sales of off-road related products. This would prepare him for his current position as Manager for Custom Truck Parts, one of the largest accessory warehouses in Canada. Ian started his journalism career in the late 1090s with a column in a national magazine for automotive enthusiasts. In the spring of 2005 Ian was approached by a local news outlet to write a weekly column. Wilderness exploring, fishing and four wheeling have been his passion since he was a teenager. Some memorable moments in Ian’s career are flying in by hto the famous Rubicon Trail in Northern California and driving a 2007 Jeep Wrangler out of the backwoods, up a waterfall and out of the trail to Lake Tahoe.

For as long as Alexandra Straub recalls, I’ve been writing about cars for over 25 years and I’m a long-term member of the Automobile Journalists Association of Canada (AJAC). My auto background is mainly in the service side of the industry as I’ve always had a keen interest in knowing how things work. Especially those oily, greasy parts that make the wheels go around. My first car was an early sixties Triumph Herald Coupe (web example photo) that was traded-in to a dealership where I worked as an apprentice auto mechanic, back in Dublin, Ireland. It spent more time off the road, being repaired, than on the road, during my time as its owner. A Herald had the same chassis and a similar powertrain as the much nicer looking Triumph Spitfire, which was sold in North America. At the BC Automobile Association I initially worked as a mobile Vehicle Inspector in the Vehicle Inspection Service. The vehicle was an AMC Gremlin and it was painted to look like a cut-away or skeleton view of the car’s mechanical bits. A small car with a big gas-guzzling engine, a Gremlin was an odd choice of vehicle for that job and the paint job just added to its weirdness, yet I grew to like it. Currently I enjoy serving on the AJAC Technology Awards panel and have also been involved in the promotion of trade skills training for young people in BC. When time permits, I still like to get my hands dirty and give my son a helping hand with, his pride and joy, a 1966 Ford Thunderbird coupe. bob.mchugh@drivewaybc.ca

August 26, 1948 - June 29, 2015 It is with both great sadness and joy that we announce the passing of Linda Long from this stage of being. Linda is survived by her husband of 45 years, Gary Long; her 3 children: Cara Long (Joe), Brian Long, and Jane Long-Haggerty (Brian); 4 very special granddaughters: Emily, Caitlyn, Mackenzie-Linne, and Kamea; 2 sisters, Dianne and Sharon; and so many others whose lives she touched and filled with love. Gary and Linda met at Simon Fraser University, where Gary looked across the quadrangle at the frosh dance and saw a bright star. That star was Linda. From that moment on, Gary knew he had found his love, his best friend, his true soul mate. Linda was a nurturing mother and teacher. She was always so proud of her children and grandchildren and had many life changing experiences with them. Linda taught for many years in Vancouver and Kamloops. Gary and Linda moved to Vernon in 1991 and she began substitute teaching, moving to part-time then eventually full time where she taught at West Vernon Elementary for her remaining teaching years. West Vernon Elementary held a special place in her heart and when the school was closed, Linda decided to retire. Linda and Gary travelled the world, often with loved ones, creating cherished memories. A special thank you to Dr. Waldron, Dr. Martyn, and all the nursing staff at Vernon Jubilee for helping Linda through her journey. Friends and Family wishing to pay their respects to Linda, “the resident angel”, may do so at a Celebration of Life at All Saints Anglican Church on July 11th at 2:00 p.m. In lieu of flowers you may make donations to Linda Long’s Cambodia School Fund on Fund Me or make blood donations to the local blood bank. Arrangements have been entrusted to Pleasant Valley Funeral Home, Phone: 250 542 4333. Condolences may be offered at www.pleasantvalleyfh.com

It is with heavy hearts we wish to announce the passing of Gordon Newcomb at Noric House on July 6, 2015 with loving family by his side. Gordon was born October 9, 1927 in Winnipeg, MB, eldest child of George and Mary Newcomb. He grew up in Winnipeg and enjoyed a 34 year career of working for the City of Winnipeg as a transit driver. He met Phoebie Szabo, the love of his life in 1979 and they were married on July 5, 1980. Gordon often referred to his marriage as getting a beautiful wife and a six pack - referring to his 6 stepchildren: Judy, Charles, Jeff, Cynthia, Deb, and Mark. Gordon and Phoebie retired to Vernon, BC in the fall of 1986 to enjoy the sunny Okanagan. Over the years, Gordon enjoyed boating, camping, travelling, gold panning, carving, and his loyal dogs: Ginger, Keifer, and Angel. Gordon was a great story teller and had a wonderful sense of humor which will be fondly remembered. Left to mourn is his loving wife of 35 years; brother Ronald and sister Joyce and their families; his stepchildren: Judy (Terry), Charles, Jeff, Cynthia (Eddie), Deb (Don), and Mark; 10 grandchildren; 12 great grandchildren; numerous nephews, nieces, and many friends. Gordon enjoyed living his final months at Noric with all the wonderful people he met there. We can’t thank the caregivers enough for their kindness, loving ways, and for the big hearted angels that they are. When thinking about Gordon, remember - a day without laughter is a day wasted. A Funeral Service will be held at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday, July 11, 2015 at Living Word Lutheran Church (6525 25 Avenue, Vernon, BC). In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the SPCA or a charity of your choice. Expressions of sympathy may be forwarded to the family at www.MyAlternatives.ca.
