CrocTalk dream comes to an end

Alistair Waters awaters@kelonwacapnews.com

After years of struggling to keep it open, the CrocTalk Conservation and Rescue Centre has closed. CrocTalk was initially started with the aim to educate the public about and to help promote conservation efforts for crocodilians, African wild cats and tortoises. It was the passion of founder Doug Illman,

who called CrocTalk his “dream for the community.” He confirmed on his Facebook page this week that the facility will be shut down. Illman said he wanted to create an “exciting, educational footprint in Kelowna for generations to come. To learn about these wonderful, mysterious reptiles.” But he said when the province would not renew his zoo permit because the facility’s temporary use permit had expired for the land CrocTalk has sat on for the last 11 years, and the

City of Kelowna refused to renew his business licence or extend the temporary use permit for another six months to allow him to relocate, the financial burden became too much despite the efforts of a few dedicated supporters who tried to raise money for the facility. Throughout the process, Illman said concern for the welfare of the animals at the facility was paramount.

was recently named the parade marshall for this year’s Pride March, the first Kelowna mayor accorded the honour. Turner said the idea to invite Basran to be the parade marshall came after he was the first person to respond to a call by the Pride society for volunteer flag bearers to walk in this year’s march. As for the Transgender March, like the Pride March, it too will feature its own large flag carried by participants. The Pride Society will have a 14-foot by 10foot pink, white and blue transgender flag specially made for the inaugural march. A Gofundme

For the first time in Kelowna, the transgender community is getting a march of its own. As part of the upcoming Okanagan Pride Festival in August, organizers say they will host the first Trans Pride March and event to be held in the Okanagan on Aug. 11. Starting at The Sails sculpture at the foot of Bernard Avenue in downtown Kelowna at 6:30 p.m. and proceeding to the Laurel Packinghouse at the corner of Cawston Avenue and Ellis Street, the march will be followed by the inaugural #Stand4Trans in the Okanagan. “For many years the rights of the transgender community have largely been ignored with most of the focus and advocacy being for gay and lesbian equality,” said Okanagan Pride Society president Wilbur Turner. “It is time for us all to come together and create visibility and to provide education and awareness around transgender equality, rights and freedoms. While there are protections in the law against discrimination, unfortunately for the trans community it has little effect.” The Trans March, while part of the Pride festival, will be separate from the larger Pride March, slated for Aug 15. Turner said this year, organizers of that march are expecting it to attract its biggest turnout to date, an anticipated 1,000 participants. Last year, an estimated 700 participants took part, a far cry from the 40 people who showed

A concert at Prospera Place on Oct. 27 has been added to the tour, with additional stops in four other smaller Canadian cities. The additional concerts are in response to fan demand, say promoters,

following the success of her tour in major Canadian and U.S. cities since it started last month. Twain’s albums have sold more than 75 million copies around the world since she burst onto the music scene in the early 1990s, chalking up 17 top 10 singles and the bestselling country album of

A lot of years have gone by and I’ve got a lot more to share.” Loved by legions of fans around the world despite taking eight years off from performing between 2004 and 2012, Twain has won Grammy Awards and was inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame in 2011. Prior to this tour, Twain had been performing in Las Vegas with her critically acclaimed show Still The One, named after one of her hit songs. Rising to fame with her self-titled debut album Shania Twain in 1993, Twain, who hails from Timmins, Ont., became a worldwide phenomenon with the release of Come On Over in 1997.

Constant complaints for Glenmore owner of wolves Sawyer Klassen Jim Simkins feels he has been consistently harassed, and he is tired of it. For the past four years, Simkins has been living his childhood dream of raising wolves on an acreage on Glenmore Road. Simkins has eight wolves and eight dogs, and says that working with them is a lot of fun, what he calls the “ultimate” experience. However, he says many calls have been made to dog control and the SPCA about him, and he is fed up dealing with the complaints. He says any time the SPCA has brought an issue to his attention, such as not meeting the required fencing, he has met the requirements and the issue has been resolved. When contacted, SPCA confirmed that all of their past issues have always been resolved. The number of complaints came to a

water (for the animals) because a truck was in the way,” he explained. “They filled a bucket of water, that still had some hydraulic fluid in it, and they dropped it over the

fence. “Luckily the dogs drank out of the normal water, or I’d have a bunch of dead dogs and dead wolves because of them.” Simkins noted vandals also tried breaking into the enclosure where he keeps his animals, as one of the latches on a gate was knocked off and one of the locks was damaged. Simkins’ issues have dated back the full four years he has been raising wolves, and with the exception of one yearlong break without any complaints, the complaints have occurred on average every three or four months. Simkins said many of the complaints have turned out to be false, such as his puppies starving, that he was giving them away for dog food or he was operating a puppy mill. One complaint indicated Simkins had 18 dogs in his front yard and another 30 in the back yard. In addition to the complaints that have led

to the SPCA and dog control showing up, he has also had his house broken into and a husky and her puppy stolen. “I’m tired of being slaughtered,” Simkins explained. “I need the public to realize I’m doing good, not bad. I’m not a bad person, I’m not harming my animals, but this is what I’m getting from people.” Simkins is currently in the process of building a kennel, and he said due to the construction there is a mess around his animal enclosure. Simkins believes people may see the mess and from that make judgments about the wellbeing of his animals. He asks anyone who has concerns to fully check things out before contacting the SPCA or dog control. Simkins is also clear in expressing that he has no issue with either agency and understands why they must follow up on received complaints. Despite the stress and feeling of harassment

that Simkins has experienced the past four years, he hasn’t given up on continuing his childhood dream—in addition to the kennel he is building, he wants to construct an agility course and a wolf sanctuary for injured wild wolves to be rehabilitated.

Once those tasks are completed, Simkins hopes to open the facility to the public and use the sanctuary for educational purposes. He says wolves raised responsibly in captivity can be harmless and trusted around adults or children.

What to do? Remove any shrubs, trees, deadfall or woodpiles from this area and keep your grass mowed and watered. • From 10 to 30 metres out from your home is the second priority zone. In this zone, you need to reduce fuels by thinning and pruning so that combustion cannot be supported. What to do? Remove trees and debris that can spread fire upwards to become a fast spreading crown fire. Space trees so that the crowns of individual trees are three to six metres apart. Remove or reduce the number of evergreen trees in the area. Evergreens such as pine and spruce are much more combustible than deciduous trees. In fact, aspen, poplar and birch all have very low flammability rates. • The third priority zone begins 30 metres from any structure and extends to a distance of 100 metres and beyond. The idea here is not to remove all combustible fuels from the forest, but to thin the area so fires will be of low intensity and more easily extinguished.

Tenant relief for Orchard Plaza The Orchard Plaza Shopping Centre has found a new tenant to occupy the large retail space vacated by Future Shop in April. Mountain Equipment Co-op has announced plans to open its outdoor active lifestyle chain at a 20,000 square-foot location in the shopping centre, on Cooper Road across from Orchard Park mall. “As many of our staff can attest, the Okanagan offers almost limitless

opportunities to be active outdoors,” said MEC chief executive officer David Labistour. “We’re thrilled at the prospect of being able to serve existing and new MEC members from a landmark commercial location in the heart of Kelowna.” The Mountain Equipment Co-op has more than four million members across Canada, who each pay a $5 lifetime membership to shop at the co-op’s

18 stores or online at www.mec.ca. Another unique aspect of MEC is a commitment of one per cent of sales annually to support non-profit organizations that help conserve ecological and recreation-oriented areas, which amounted to $3 million in 2014.

As the fire season continues in B.C. and crews continue to battle blazes right across the province, it’s imperative on residents living in interface areas to make sure their homes are protected from wildfire. Communities in the Central Okanagan, like many parts of B.C., are located in the middle of the forest. These are the interface areas and Lake Country deputy fire chief Brent Penner says residents can help avoid a situation where their home is in danger. “With communities built in interface areas it’s a recommended good practice to have a buffer zone around your house,” said Penner. “It’s like a fire break. If there is a ground fire we can deal with that but that can lead to the trees and the fire goes from the ground up the tree and the tree can candle and create a huge amount of energy. “Sometimes you can have a fire that will actually run on the canopy of the tree tops.” Wildland forest fires are capable of spreading at an astonishing rate, often moving at up to 5.5 kilometres per hour, with spotting as far as two kilometres ahead.

Wind-blown grass fires can spread at speeds up to 8.5 kilometres per hour. Over the last 10 years, on average more than 2,500 wildfires were started in British Columbia each year consuming over 25,000 hectares of forested land annually. If you live in or near a forested region of our province, sooner or later you may have to contend with the spread of a wildfire. The best protection against loss, damage or injury due to wildfire is prevention. Here are some steps to take as outlined in the B.C. Firesmart manual for homeowners. • Any kind of vegetation is combustible. Mature trees, shrubs, grass, even your woodpile, are all potential fuels and can easily ignite (increasing the chance of building ignition and loss.) Managing the space around your house and buildings is of prime importance Do you have a cleared zone around your house and buildings? The first 10 metres of space around your home is your first priority. It’s the most critical area to consider for fire protection. A good fuel-free space gives firefighters a chance to save your home from an advancing fire. A home without a good fuel-free space around it can make firefighting difficult, if not impossible.

Watershed mudboggers R Dynamite blasting a concern causing some headaches T TALLUS RIDGE

Sawyer Klassen

sawyer.klassen@kelownacapnews.com

West Kelowna residents on Tallus Ridge Drive are concerned about the possible impact of blasting in the area. A number of residents brought their fears to West Kelowna council at a public hearing Tuesday about a proposed 13-lot subdivision on Tallus Ridge Drive. The concerns largely stem from visible cracks already in the rock face, and what blasting could do to them. The residents who spoke were also worried about the existing homes in the area, and any potential damage they

could receive from the blasting. The developer of the property said he plans to evaluate the properties within 100 metres of the blasting area before any blasting begins, which should protect both sides in the event there is damage. He also mentioned a rock hammer could be used as an alternative to blasting, although he believes it may actually cause more damage to the rock than blasting. No decision was reached by West Kelowna council at the hearing as they chose instead to wait for a report from city staff that would address blasting prior to giving third reading.

Richard Rolke Black Press reporter

Mudboggers roaring around watersheds have local communities calling for action. The Okanagan Basin Water Board discussed the issue of source protection Tuesday and specifically recreational activities that threaten water quality and critical infrastructure, such as dams. “I don’t know how we get around the recreational aspect and desecration?” said director James Baker. Much of the discussion revolved around the Greater Vernon Water Utility’s experience with people entering the Duteau Creek watershed. “They love to get out in their ATVs and four-by-fours,” said Renee Clark, GVWU water quality manager. “The reservoirs get drawn down in the summer and it looks like a great place to go and play.”

Another concern is what allterrain vehicles do to the integrity of dams holding back reservoirs. “If they breach, the inundation area is Lumby and there would be property damage. Who would be liable for that? We would,” said Clark, adding that the water utility owns the dam and is responsible for safety. “We have tried to fence the dams but it’s a big area and new routes are found.” There have also been problems with other infrastructure being damaged and warning signs being shot and utility staff must clean up the trash and human waste left behind (there are no outhouses at the reservoirs). Clark says the situation at Duteau Creek is experienced in watersheds throughout the Okanagan and something must be done. “Let’s find some way to do this from a political and policy perspective,” she said. “If we can protect the source,

c treatment is a lot less.” Presently, a license of occupation s through the provincial government o doesn’t allow for exclusive use of a b watershed by a utility. w Among the possible options are leasing the land to prevent recreational activities or establishing s recreational campsites at reservoirs l w so there are some guidelines in place. Clark isn’t convinced that formal t campsites will work given summer s o conditions at reservoirs. p “The lakes are drawn down m in August so they’re not a place people will hang out at (to camp) but people will still ATV,” she said. d a Doug Findlater, OBWB chairperson, points out that there e was an issue with ATVs in the Bear e Creek watershed, off of Westside i Road, and various agencies came m together to create formal trails and B enforcement. a “They took control of it and i allowed people in but under s controlled conditions,” he said. i t s m

Are You Taking Care of Your Shoulder Pain? Discover a New Option. Shoulder aches and pains are common, but because our arms seldom get a rest, these aches often become chronic injuries: knots, spasms, frozen shoulder and tendonitis. Many of us learn to live with it and think, “It’s a part of my lifestyle or job”. Many of us have had chronic tendonitis, making it difficult to lift a carton of milk or wash our hair. And many of us have exhausted a variety of therapies.

DR. RYAN HARRIS

Therapy, the only therapy I found to get rid of my pain and heal my injury. Shockwave, developed to break up kidney stones, can break down scar tissue and stimulate new blood vessel growth, promoting proper muscle function and restarting the healing process.

It is in those injuries that have lingered for months or years where shockwave shines. If you have chronic shoulder injuries, don’t give up hope. If I had, I would not be in practice today.

Glenmore Chiropractic

Most therapies have an affect only on new injuries that are days to weeks old. Once scar tissue forms and healing stops (chronic), we are at the mercy of the injury. Over and over in my practice I hear, “I have been dealing with this injury for months or years and tried everything. Nothing has worked… what do I do?”

According to the Journal of the American Medical Association 2005, shockwave therapy had a 91% success rate for the treatment of calcific Rotator Cuff Tendonitis. Results are often experienced within a couple of visits and the treatment is covered by many insurance companies.

I tell them about the tennis elbow and shoulder tendonitis I had, both of which nearly caused me to shut down my practice. I talk about the multitude of therapies I tried to no avail. Then I talk about Shockwave

The Okanagan Basin Water Board (OBWB) has several concerns about the bodies of water within the Kelowna area. Doug Findlater, OBWB chair, said the first of those is Eurasian milfoil. Milfoil has been greatly helped by this year’s hot spring, and as a result has begun spreading roughly

one month earlier than usual and at a voracious pace. Findlater explained the OBWB has been working to reduce the underwater weed in public areas, but some private areas are being seriously impacted. Milfoil poses the largest problems for swimmers, who can suddenly find themselves surrounded by it, and boaters, who can have their propellers

caught in it. Findlater noted an abundance of milfoil can also have a negative impact on tourism, and this is the first year in a long time it has been problematic. While the OBWB program of harvesting and rototilling the milfoil has worked well for the past 30 years, Findlater said the OBWB is looking at increasing the milfoil

t o p m

budget for next year to handle it to a greater degree. However, he explained p the board will first find i out if this year is simply ani exceptional year or if this will be the new normal. i In addition to the e milfoil, the OBWB is also w expressing concerns y about blue green algae. g Findlater said the a chance of a blue green o algae bloom is greater than usual with the weather and water conditions experienced in the Okanagan so far this summer, though it hasn’t bloomed yet. Findlater explained the OBWB, Interior Health and the City of Osoyoos each want the province to put a protocol in place to deal with a potential blue green algae bloom as the threat of it has stretched throughout the Okanagan.

news _____________________________________________________________________ REACTING TO AN ACCIDENT

Think ahead about how to respond to a vehicle crash Is it our sense of consciousness that separates us from the rest of the beasts? Perhaps it’s our logical brains. Many of us think we’re mighty clever. Stick us in a stressful situation, though, and logic can go out the window. Those with specialized training thrive— soldiers in a fire fight or an emergency room physician faced with multiple trauma patients. The rest of us? If we don’t have a plan of action figured out, our effectiveness can be nonexistent and our good intentions might cause more harm than good. At a rate in British Columbia of approximately one person injured in a crash every six minutes, a car crash is at the higher end of the likeliness scale for stressful situations we might encounter. While specialized training might be a little overkill, it might help to put your mind to how you might best respond. There are important priorities and it is important to keep them in mind. For example, as important as it is to exchange information with the other driver, you don’t want to be grabbing a pen and paper and dashing out in front of oncoming traffic to

do so. That brings us to the top priority: Safety. Whatever emergency first aid might be warranted, or your fear that the offending driver might take off, failure to consider your immediate safety and the safety of others can make a bad situation much, much worse. In short, get yourself and others out of harm’s way. A 911 call is probably next in priority. With smart phones on every hip, a 911 call can be delegated, or even made in the throes of performing emergency first aid. Emergency services personnel know exactly what to do to help those who need help and to prevent further harm so getting them there as quickly as possible is key. The next priority is caring for the injured. Some of us know first aid and others haven’t a clue. Those with training

Achieving Justice PAUL HERGOTT are likely to jump in, but it doesn’t hurt to call out for help. The vast majority of car crashes, though, come without the need for first aid. Most injuries, even permanent, life changing ones, are not apparent at the scene, as it takes time for damaged tissues to become inflamed and painful. You’ve survived a crash, the scene has been secured, and there is no need for emergency first aid. What now? I recommend that your next priority be witnesses. You know what happened, and the event is burned into your brain. The other driver was there as well, and is apologizing for blowing through that stop sign or

running a yellow. You were clearly in the right and the other driver was clearly in the wrong. Why bother yourself with witnesses? However clear the issue of liability might be, I recommend getting the names and contact information of anyone at the scene who might have witnessed the crash. It is incredible how stories can change. Witnesses might well

assume, like you, that liability is so clear that they are not required, and might be inclined to dash off to wherever they were heading. Stop them and ask that they please write their name and contact information on a piece of paper for you. It is finally time to get the names and contact information for any other drivers and the owners of the other vehicles involved. Also get license plate numbers. Ask to see

Wildlife policies are contrary to conservation Open letter to Environment Minister Mary Polak: We are writing with regard to the issue of conservation officer Bryce Casavant being suspended without pay for saving the lives of two bear cubs in Port Hardy, B.C.

LETTER OF THE WEEK We are ashamed at how wildlife issues are “managed”in this province. We have witnessed too many deaths of wildlife animals at the hands of conservation officers who are acting in accordance with the policies set out by our provincial government. We want you to know that this on-going slaughter is not missed or ignored by us or many other residents of this province. It is entirely anthropocentric, inhumane and short-sighted to believe that we have the right

to exterminate other animals in the name of convenience and economy. Every year hundreds of healthy bears, bear cubs, coyotes, coyote pups, cougars, wolves and so on are killed in our province by this government. We have spoken personally and at length with many conservation officers and have heard all of the justifications and rationales. We are tired of hearing how these animals are a threat to human safety. It is we humans that are the biggest threat. In fact, here in Kamloops a few years ago two rescued bear cubs were taken to our Wildlife Park and were slaughtered upon their arrival due to government policy. Minutes after their extermination, the Northern Lights Wildlife Shelter called to say they had heard of the bear cub rescue and were ready and willing to send someone down to pick up the cubs and transport them to the wildlife shelter. The shelter was informed that the bear cubs had already been killed.

Is B.C.’S LNG industry real? Yes it is VICTORIA – The B.C. legislature is back in session this week, a rare summer sitting to approve a 25year project agreement for the first large-scale liquefied natural gas project in northern B.C. Finance Minister Mike de Jong released the lengthy legal agreement prior to the debate, saying this step should remove any doubt that an international investment group led by Petronas of Malaysia intends to go ahead. With billions invested in upstream resources and buyers waiting at home, the Pacific Northwest LNG group includes Chinese state corporation Sinopec, Indian Oil Corp., Japan Petroleum Exploration Corp. and Petroleum Brunei. The most contentious issue is the government’s intention to protect the investors from “discriminatory” tax and regulations for the life of the project. The government insists these sorts of long-term cost certainty agreements are commonplace, and don’t affect provincial and federal taxes or environmental regulations unless they single out LNG operations. Future governments can raise corporate tax rates, carbon tax or enter into a cap and trade system. Ottawa can scrap capital cost allowances that

were recently extended to LNG producers, which is TOM significant FLETCHER because Liberal leader Justin Trudeau has indicated he would get rid of what he calls subsidies to fossil fuels. Both the province and Ottawa allow capital cost write-offs against corporate tax, to attract investment. B.C. attracted a lot of gas drilling rigs from Alberta with tax breaks for deep drilling. The B.C. government invited comparisons with Western Australia LNG producers, and NDP researchers did just that. They noted that Australia’s Gorgon and North West Shelf LNG projects have written provisions that local employment and local suppliers will get preference. Those are absent in B.C., along with apprenticeship guarantees for LNG. “There was hard bargaining by the companies, and certainly the premier went into this negotiation

in a very weak position, having to deliver on her extravagant and grandiose promises from the s election,” NDP critic Bruce Ralston said. “The w companies did well. Whether the citizens of British b Columbia did well is certainly an open question.” Green Party MLA Andrew Weaver painted himself into a corner, having spent the last two years dismissing the B.C. LNG industry as a fantasy that will never come to pass, strictly on economic grounds. He has since branded the Petronas deal, a template for any future projects, a “generational sellout.” Another big player with gas well investments in northeast B.C. is Shell, with a proposal for Kitimat. o o Its prospects have improved since it took over British t t Gas Group, which had its own LNG intentions here. e e Another group led by Altagas remains on track to u u ship LNG from its Douglas Channel site before the end of the decade. cc It’s important to remember that without LNG aa exports, B.C.’s natural gas industry will shrink rapidly d d after 50 years of increasingly significant revenues t t cc b SEE FLETCHER A11b

EURASIAN MILFOIL

ladIEs sIzEs 5-12

Albertans bring the milfoil to B.C. lakes To the editor: The reality is the milfoil is the simple fact the sheer amount of AB boats in our lakes. The average wakeboard/surfboat has sitting water in ballast tanks (that never fully drain and can hold thousands of litres of water) as well the engines alone hold 40 litres just sitting in the cooling system. These boats are pulled out of Alberta lakes

so infested with milfoil you can’t even see your feet when you’re in them, and then brought straight to our lakes. I’ve seen ads for invasive mussels but never any monitoring for milfoil, etc. I’m an avid water sports enthusiast and do not want to dissuade tourists and visitors to our beautiful part of the country. I was also raised in Alberta in lakes that are still milfoil

infested. Unless we can ensure boats coming into our waters have been flushed and treated to ensure they are not carrying any potential contaminants, then our crystal clear lakes are sadly doomed. Tony Pallas, Kelowna

OKANAGAN BASIN WATER BOARD

More work on milfoil since last winter To the editor: The Okanagan Basin Water Board (OBWB) is the agency in charge of managing milfoil in Okanagan lakes. In a recent letter to the editor, Homeowner Wants Milfoil Scoured From Shoreline (July 10 Kelowna Capital News) Michael Neill stated that the weeds in the lake are out of control. Indeed, this year is the worst milfoil growth our operators have seen in at least 30 years. Far from neglecting the Kelowna foreshore, last winter we put extra staff and machine time into rototilling known milfoil beds. In areas we rototill, it’s relatively controlled. What’s surprising are the number of new

beds in new places, and the fast, early growth throughout the valley. The unseasonably warm spring weather and lake temperatures are contributing to the problem, as are the changing lake depths. In 2012 and 2013 there were several extreme rain events causing very high flows in Mission Creek, and a big slug of sediment dislodged by these flows has moved out into the lake. The sediment has caused closure of a portion of the Cook Road boat launch, and also appears to have created several large new shallow water areas for the milfoil to grow. This summer, in addition to putting an

extra operator on to increase the machine time of the harvesting equipment, the OBWB plans to map the location of the new beds, and survey the substrates along the shoreline to potentially expand the work areas and seasonal work windows allowed under our environmental permit. We fully agree with Mr. Neill – the lakes are the Okanagan’s most precious resource. As conditions change with the climate, the weather, and the shoreline, we are working to adapt our program. Anna Warwick Sears, PhD, Executive Director, OBWB

Efficient toilets already use less water To the editor: Re: Saving water with every flush, July 10 Kelowna Capital News. I am questioning that adding any type of ballast (e.g. sand filled one litre plastic bottle) to a newer high efficiency toilet will conserve any water. The news article and your website seems to suggest that any toilet will benefit in reducing water consumption based on the addition of ballast.

While I completely agree older toilets (and some early model low flow toilets of about 10 years ago, while going through design changes) will reduce water consumption but only if the ballast extends from above the low level mark to the high level mark. Modern high efficiency low flow toilets use technology (flapper valve function especially) that differs from older model toilets. Since high efficiency toilets no longer drain the entire tank, a one litre ballast (plastic bottle)

CO saluted for his courage CONSERVATION FROM A10 We also know, having spoken to operators of the wildlife shelters in B.C., that many of them receive government funding and that even they are therefore obligated to tow your unethical line. We want you to know that we are two citizens of this province who are outraged at your policies and practices. We are disappointed that you would condone the slaughter of these two cubs and the castigation of CO Casavant. You should be commending Casavant for his forward-

thinking, progressive, compassionate refusal to carry out your anthropocentric policies. We salute CO Casavant for his courage to stand up for what is right and we believe he should not only be immediately reinstated to his job (with back pay), but that you should promote him to be your consultant and advisor on the humane, sane and compassionate treatment and stewardship of our wildlife brethren. Sandi Mikuse, Claudette Laffey Advocates for Urban Wildlife, Kamloops

LNG provides revenue to BC FLETCHER FROM A10 from sales to the U.S. Leaving aside all the political positioning around the province’s largest private investment to date, if this doesn’t go ahead we will all feel the effects. De Jong had a blunt response when asked what the province gets in return for all its guarantees of low tax environment: “Their money.” At peak construction, Pacific Northwest LNG will need as many as 4,500 workers,

with 500 or more operations jobs depending on how far it expands. The finance ministry forecasts that once Pacific Northwest LNG is up and running, it represents $9 billion in revenues to the province over 10 years, including gas royalties and taxes. That’s more than taxpayers can expect from the entire forest industry. Tom Fletcher is legislature reporter and columnist for Black Press. tfletcher@blackpress.ca

cannot possibly save one litre of water per flush as suggested on your web page. It could only save the displaced volume of the plastic bottle between the high and low water mark. Some high efficiency toilet designs may have a high level mark that exceeds the ‘body’ height of the bottle. The neck of the bottle displaces little water. Also, old toilets use the same amount of water per flush (draining the entire tank). New high efficiency toilets consume an average of their advertised consumption value—some flushes will be more and others will be less. I would be very interested in your research to prove any water savings with model high efficiency toilets that doesn’t impair their design performance. Understandably your goal is to create discussion which this does. Tom Kinsman, Kelowna

“My animals have never suffered and never will and with the help of my friends Paul ‘Little Ray’ Goulet of Little Rays Reptiles in Ottawa,and Lonnie McCaskill, curator at the Central Florida Zoological Park, we had to start the process of relocating my family of crocodilians, including the McGator Family we have all come to love and cherish so dearly.” Attempts by the Kelowna Capital News to contact Illman on Thursday were unsuccessful, with his mobile phone voice mailbox reporting as full and the office number for CrocTalk no longer in service. During its 11-year operation, CrocTalk seemed to face constant financial pressures, with the threat of closure seeming to regularly raise its head. But Illman managed to come through repeatedly, keeping CrocTalk open. When the facility finally closed for good last week there was a fundraising effort afoot to try and save it. But this time there was no last minute reprieve.

CrocTalk owner Doug Illman with one of his crocodilians. “This is very hard for me to write because these animals, especially the McGators have been my life,” wrote Illman. “I will still walk with my head held high because CrocTalk has influenced thousands of families, schools, boys and girls clubs, universities/colleges and tourists throughout the years here in Kelowna.” He said the facility had a perfect safety record and CrocTalk helped support many students who went into veterinary medicine because of its programs. He thanked everyone who supported the facility over the years and appealed to anyone who could financially take over management

of the facility to help him create what he called a

new CrocTalk in Kelowna, Lake Country or West Kelowna. But he said if that was to happen, it would need to happen quickly as “the clock is ticking down to the time my crocodilians are removed and shipped elsewhere.” And he said once they are gone, “they will not return.” While no deadline for the animals’ removal was given, in closing Illman declared “the City of Kelowna needs a zoo.”

news _______________________________________________ FEISTY FELINE

Fixed cat maintains prickly attitude Scaredy Cat 4—Charlie and Tez 1…considering that Hodge last week’s score was Scaredy Podge 3—Us 0, it would be easy to assume that not a lot has CHARLIE ‘happened.’ HODGE Oh contraire. A lot has happened. Perhaps not a lot has changed regarding the standoff in the old shed I wrote about last week, but certainly things have ‘happened’ and there certainly has been alterations for some. For readers who missed last week’s rant, Scaredy Cat is a feral feline who decided five weeks ago that our shed was a grand spot to spawn four kittens. Rather than have them destroyed, Tez and I decided to keep the kittens safe in the shed until they could be safely weaned from mom, then looked after by vets before finding them homes. Scaredy has been in our hood for about a year and a half. We originally assumed she

belonged to a neighbour. During the winter, however, we began to suspect she had been abandoned or lost. While Tez and I do not believe in letting pet cats outdoors for a number of reasons, we rationalized that having Scaredy sniff around my garage and do a little hunting once in a while could be a win-win situation. But Scaredy clearly had other plans. The plot sickens by the fact that I am currently trying to establish my writing office in the shed, so for the past five weeks I’ve put up with a freaked out, wild, mom cat who loves the food, water and safe space—but not the people. From the day we all became one big wild and crazy family in the shed until this past Tuesday the confrontations have been interesting with Scaredy Cat scratching Teresa once and moi twice. Hence the 3-0 score.

During the ongoing one-sided war, I assured Tez once the kittens were removed and Scaredy had a bit of time to adapt (and once she had been fixed and time to recover), Scaredy would begin to mellow out. The shed would once again be a safe spot. Oops. Wrong. Again. The kittens were finally sequestered to a safe play room area, but it took three days to finally snag Scaredy. Even with the finest of food and traps available for the task, I could not catch her. Finally dynamo animal lover Helena Pol saved the day and trapped the crafty cat. When it comes to cats Helena really knows her stuff. Wednesday night Scaredy Cat came home from the vets, looking a little worse for wear, and no longer able to have more kittens. She immediately headed to the shed and

news _______________________________________________ HODGE FROM A18 fell asleep. “Aha, she has mellowed a bit,” I thought to myself. “Looks like this time we did the injurious act so that makes the score 3-1,” I muttered to no one as I watched Scaredy Cat sleep like a log. A few hours later she was up and rubbing against my leg, crying for food and attention. Foolishly, I slowly moved my hand out to try and gently pet her. Like lightning, the little red rivulets of blood were already forming on my forearm and fingers before she even withdrew her paw from my upper body “Damn, 4-1,” I moaned as I headed to the Polysporin and Band-

Aids again. When I went inside for medical attention Tez was nowhere to be seen, until I heard squeals of laughter downstairs. Tez was downstairs playing (yet again) with the four kittens we have already decided we are not keeping. The only real question is will it be two or four cats we keep? Stay tuned. ••• A final reminder to music fans that Friday July 24, at the Kelowna Community Theatre is the opening night performance of Raft Of The Medusa. Okanagan Valley singers Ashlie Atkinson, from Penticton, and Neville Bowman, from Kelowna, headline an outstanding cast of singers and actors in

this riveting, emotionally charged rock-opera-like show. The 22-member cast of the new rock-musical also includes the talented team of Randall Robinson and Pat Brown (of rock band Ten2Nine fame) who combined wrote the entire play and all the songs. The play captures the agony, tragedy and human condition of one of the worst maritime disasters in history. In the early 19th century the French passenger ship the Medusa sank off the coast of Africa with 400 on board. Due to a lack of lifeboats, more than 150 castaways were set adrift on makeshift rafts. Two weeks later when rescued only 15 had survived. The disaster inspired

French painter Theodore Gericault to paint his famous painting of the tragedy. The play studies both life and death on the raft, and the struggles of Gericault himself. Brown and Robinson have done an amazing, jaw-dropping job of creating a world-class, performance. Find out for yourself as play runs July 24 and 25 at Kelowna Community Theatre. ••• July is a busy month for special dates and events aside from just wonderful music. Some very important people in my world celebrate birthdays this week. Happy Birthday to the ‘perfect’ (snicker, snicker) step-daughter Lisa. Very

And most of all happy anniversary today to my sweet Tez. Thank you for sharing my crazy journey with me and letting me share in yours. They have blended well. I hope we get to spend many more adventures together. Like many others, we have had a lot of lemons tossed our way during the past five years.

Where lots of weed seeds will blow in from adjacent areas or where there is major leaf drop from trees, don’t use rock mulch. In my experience, the only rock mulch that is easy to weed out of is screened crusher chips. It acts like soil. The fine sand must be screened out or it will go hard like a compacted gravel path. For texture add some large feature rocks. Plants may be fertilized with manure tea made from compost, worm castings, etc. Advantages: Rock mulch is a good choice in fire sensitive areas where wood chip and bark mulch are a fire hazard. Compost-type mulches may also catch fire. Okanagan soils and compost mulches can become hydrophobic (repel water) when dry. Water/rain sinks through crushed rock chips into the soil below. Unlike wood waste or compost-type mulches, rocks don’t need to be replenished every one to three years as they do not decompose. Recommendations: Install drip irrigation or hand water until plants are established. Before putting down any mulch material, be sure to remove all weeds, including roots, or they’ll grow through the mulch. Soak the soil well. To dramatically reduce water use and weed growth, put mulch of some kind on all exposed garden soil. If you use rock mulch, be sure to choose screened crusher chips and plants that thrive in extreme heat and drought conditions. Planting in fall gives plants a longer time (than spring planting) to get established before the next summer’s drought. Be sure to soak plant and planting holes very well and loosen roots before planting. Avoid using landscape fabric, especially in areas where plants may be moved or added. okanaganxeriscape.org

Kelowna’s Kierra Smith (right) celebrates her gold medal in the 200 metre breaststroke with runner-up Martha McCabe Wednesday at the Pan American Games in Toronto.

Golden effort shines spotlight on Smith Warren Henderson whenderson@kelownacapnews.com

Like so many of her gold medal-winning Canadian teammates, Kierra Smith is the toast of the town this week in Toronto. The 21-year-old Kelowna swimmer has been receiving the royal treatment from Canadian fans since capturing the women’s 200 metre breaststroke at the Pan American Games. Between signing autographs, posing for photos, getting meals on the house and doing multiple media interviews,

it’s unlike anything Smith has ever experienced. “The atmosphere was been unreal, people have been so nice to me and enthusiastic, I’m really trying to soak it all in,” Smith said Thursday morning from Toronto. “Just walking around town, people are stopping me, getting pictures of me and my parents, and congratulating me. It’s been incredible, I’ve never experienced anything like it.” Smith stepped into the national spotlight on Wednesday evening with a record-setting

performance in the 200 metre breaststroke. Her swim of two minutes 24.38 seconds was .13 better than Canadian teammate Martha McCabe and eclipsed the record she set earlier in the day in the heats. For Smith, it was her first individual medal in a major international competition and was significant in more ways than one. “It means a lot to win the medal, but it means so much to win it in Canada,” said Smith, who also acknowledged the tremendous support she has received from

back home in Kelowna. “The crowd was amazing and to go 1-2 for Canada with Martha was pretty special. “It’s also an important stepping stone towards the Olympics in Rio.” After fourth-place finishes last year at the Commonwealth Games and FINA world championships, Smith continued to make progress this spring, winning gold for the University of Minnesota at the NCAA Swimming Championships in North Carolina. She will return to the world championships

in Russia in three weeks with a medal in her sights. And all the while, Smith and coach Emil Dimitrov will be building towards the Olympic Games next summer in Brazil. “I think Emil and I are confident with where we’re at right now and the way things are progressing,” she added. Meanwhile, Smith will look for her second medal of the Pan American Games on Saturday when she swims for Canada in the 4 by 100 medley relay.

What a week it’s been for Will Dean. The 28-year-old from Kelowna posted the two biggest wins of his career, earning a pair of gold medals for Canada in men’s rowing at the Pan American Games in Toronto. Dean and the Canadians showed the way Tuesday in the quad sculls, then followed up on Wednesday with another gold medal effort in the men’s eight. Dean said the experience of racing in his home country in a major international event for the first time is the unquestionable highlight of his career to date. “I had never had the opportunity to race in front of a Canadian crowd before and it was an unbelievable thrill,” said Dean. “Everybody talks about competing in your country and for the home crowd and I can’t overstate what that means to me. “To win two gold medals…it was a pretty nice couple of days, beyond what I expected. “Just the feeling of gratitude I had when crossing the finish line, I’m so thankful.” The two most significant medals of his life come a decade after Dean began his rowing career at the University of California-Berkley. Dean said it’s been a long and rewarding

Will Dean

journey that he’s thrilled to be sharing with his hometown. “I’m super thankful for the support of all the people back in Kelowna, I’ve had a ton of messages,” said Dean, a graduate of KSS. “I’m proud to be from there and represent such a great community. I’ve had huge support throughout my career from family and friends, all the people around me have contributed to this and I’m grateful for that.” Dean and his men’s quad teammates will next focus on qualifying for a spot at the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio. To do that, the Canadian crew will be aiming for a topeight finish at the world championships this September in France. “We have to qualify at worlds and we’ll be ready for the challenge,” Dean said. “We’re hoping to build on what we’ve done, dig in and focus on getting to the Olympics.”

Two B.C. gold, six medals for United FC It’s been a productive summer of soccer for Kelowna United FC. The local club capped off the 2015 season in style last weekend, capturing six medals at B.C. Soccer Provincial B Cup championships. Two United teams finished on top of their

divisions with gold medals. Here’s a look at how Kelowna teams fared at provincials. • United U16 girls— gold After settling for second best in 2014, the United girls put together a solid stretch of soccer

over four days of action in Penticton to claim the gold medal in the U16 division. United started the final match quickly, as Brooklyn Kostiuk sent a ball up the middle to Brooke Weremy who put Kelowna on the board just 2 1/2 minutes into the game.

Only eight minutes later, a corner kick from Lauren Guy resulted in Weremy’s second goal and United led 2-0 at the half. In the second half, Guy provided insurance by curling a corner kick past the P.G .keeper for a 3-0 lead.

Kelowna’s Regan Medley was steady in the net, posting the shutout as United secured the gold medal. “What an amazing group of young ladies,” said coach Mark Slade. “For the past 10 months these girls put the work, time and

dedication into their play and their teammates. “Losing the provincial championship last year was certainly a sweet motivator. Every single player was hungry to get their hands on that trophy.” In the round robin, Kelowna took out Juan

de Fuca 4-0 in the opener, beat Nelson 5-1, then played to a 1-1 draw with Burnaby to clinch a spot in the final against Prince George. The U16 girls are: Regan Medley, Fiona Reha, Alexis Watson,

The United girls lost only once in 33 games all season, that to a team two years older. “I am absolutely thrilled and amazed at what these girls have accomplished for themselves,” said U14 coach Tom Crawford. “I couldn’t be more proud.” • United U17 boys— silver Playing up an age group in the U18 division at the Les Sinnott Memorial Boys Provincial Cup in Penticton, the United boys opened with a 1-1 draw against Central City, then drubbed Prince Rupert 8-0.

stood up as the winner and Corey Bennett earned the shutout, as United advanced to the gold medal game. In the championship match against Penticton, Kelowna held its own for the first half and went to the break tied 1-1. But in the second half, Penticton gained the upper hand with a goal on a penalty kick, then added two more marker for a 3-0 win and the gold medal. United finished with a silver medal in what was a strong season from start to finish. • United U15 girls— silver In Nelson, the Kelowna U15 girls reached the final before losing to Marpole Phoenix 3-1 and taking home the silver medal.

Former Kelowna Rockets head coach Dan Lambert will join Dan Bylsma, Terry Murray and Dave Barr on the coaching staff of the Buffalo Sabres for the 2015-16 NHL season. Dan Lambert hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t intended on leaving the Western Hockey League champs at the end of the 2015-16 season. Then the right opportunity just happened to come his way. Lambert, who spent one season as the Kelowna Rocketsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; head coach, resigned his position early last week to take on an assistant coaching job with the NHLâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Buffalo Sabres. The 45-year-old St. Boniface, MB native was

asked by new Sabresâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; coach and former teammate Dan Bylsma if he would consider making the step up to pro. Lambert found the opportunity too enticing to overlook. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dan asked me if (coaching in the NHL) was something I wanted to do and so I asked him if he was offering me the job,â&#x20AC;? said Lambert, who played with Bylsma in the IHL in the 1990s. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When he said yes, I said yesâ&#x20AC;Śand it was time to negotiate. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Really it was Danâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s decision to bring me there and I thank him for the opportunity.â&#x20AC;? Prior to discussions with Bylsma, Lambert had been interviewed for a coaching position in the American Hockey League but didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get the job. Until then, Lambert

was prepared to stay with the Rockets at least one more season to try and bring a Memorial Cup back to Kelowna. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When that first team called, I hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really even thought about (a pro job),â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But as great as our team was this past seasonâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;and I think theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be very good againâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;you never know with junior hockey, there are no guarantees itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to happen every year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So it was just an opportunity to move up that I decided to take.â&#x20AC;? With just one season of head coaching in junior hockey under his belt, conventional wisdom just may have been that Lambert could benefit from more time behind a WHL bench. It was a point Lambert considered carefully

An offer Lambert just couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t refuse

Former Kelowna Rockets head coach Dan Lambert will join Dan Bylsma, Terry Murray and Dave Barr on the coaching staff of the Buffalo Sabres for the 2015-16 NHL season. before making his decision,. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A coach every season grows, no matter who you are or where you are, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re growing and learning,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The thought was I could have stayed here and gotten better, but instead Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m going to move up and learn in a different environment

from different people. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s on the fast track and a challenge, but Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m looking forward to it and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m excited for the experience.â&#x20AC;? With the Sabres, Lambert joins Bylsma and fellow assistants Terry Murray on Dave Barr on a team with nowhere to go but up. Buffalo finished last overall in the NHL in

2014-15, but with young players like Sam Reinhart and Jack Eichel, and newly-acquired Evander Kane and Ryan Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Reilly to build around, there is a renewed sense of optimism in Buffalo. Lambert witnessed that last week when he headed down to New York for the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s summer development camp. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We had a blue and white game at camp and there were 17,000 people thereâ&#x20AC;Śit was unbelievable,â&#x20AC;? said Lambert. â&#x20AC;&#x153;After what the team did last year, you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get much worseâ&#x20AC;Ś at least I hope not,â&#x20AC;? he joked. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They made a lot of moves and thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot of excitement. As a staff, we have four guys who have never worked together before, so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be interesting and exciting to see how we do.â&#x20AC;? Hired in 2009, Lambert spent six seasons with the Rockets, the first five as an assistant to Ryan Huska. His last season was the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best in six years, leading Kelowna to 53 wins, the WHL championship and to within one goal of a Memorial Cup championship. But as much as wins and titles will provide

lasting memories, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the day-to-day interaction with players and fellow staff members heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll miss most. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I watched a lot of the (players) become young men, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always specialâ&#x20AC;Śthey almost feel like your kids,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what made it the hardest, knowing the relationships I was leaving behind, the ones established already. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I went into the office this week and talked with (assistants) Kris (Mallette) and Travis (Crickard) and it was a pretty special year for sure,â&#x20AC;? he added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t finish it off quite as hoped, but for a firstyear coach it was a dream season. When youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re one shot away from winning it all, you have to say it was a pretty amazing year.â&#x20AC;? With a family in Kelowna, including three daughters, Lambert is in the process of making plans for his move to Buffalo. Although there is no firm date, he expects to be heading to New York state sometime in August. In the meantime, Rockets president and GM Bruce Hamilton continues his search for a replacement for Lambert for the 2015-16 season. Hamilton expects to name a new head coach by the end of the month.

The Westbank First Nation has provided significant improvements to the start line over past years. Swimmers will have direct access to the start from the jetty at the end of Old Ferry Wharf Road, as well as four permanent anchors in the water for the start line corral.

The 67th edition of the Across the Lake Swim on Saturday will feature a record 1,200 entrants.

Kelowna’s Tyler Borradaile is the Canadian hang gliding champion for 2015.

Kelowna man national hang gliding champ There aren’t an abundance of people who can pilot a hang glider more efficiently for effectively than Tyler Borradaile. That much was evident earlier this month as the Kelowna man captured the 2015 Canadian Hang Gliding Championship in Lumby. The event was five rounds held over a sevenday stretch. The win earned Boradaille an entry into the Pre World Championship next year and the World Championships in Brazil in 2017. Competing against 26 pilots from six countries in the open competition, Boradaille won the title on points, placing ahead of Ross Hunter of Calgary, the 2010 champion. Defending John

inclusive event now. “This year we sold out and capped it at 1,200.” Most of the 900 swimmers in last year’s Across the Lake Swim encountered some unusually harsh conditions when a seiche wave rolled through the lake just 20 minutes after the start of the race. Hundreds of swimmers were blown off course and finished with much slower times than expected, while rescue crews had to pull another 200 people out of the water. In the end, all swimmers came out of the water unharmed. With any luck, Rudd said the conditions will be much more cooperative this weekend.

A record 1,200 entrants will take to the waters of Okanagan Lake on Saturday morning for the 67th edition of the Across the Lake Swim. The 2.1 km swim, which begins at the Old Ferry Docks in West Kelowna and ends at Hot Sands Beach in City Park, has nearly doubled in size since 2013 when 650 swimmers took part. “In 2013 we changed the event from just a race to more of a family event, or a bucket list type of event so that really anyone feels like they can take part,” said Across the Lake race director, Peter Rudd. “The elite swimmers who still want to compete and race, that’s still available to them, but it’s more of an

Theoret of Prince Albert, Sask., finished third. The event was five rounds held over a sevenday stretch. David Bacon of Summerland won the King Post division, while second and third went to Stewart Trowsdale and Ralph Herten both of Vancouver. Competition was world class and included world and North American record holder Dustin Martin who flew 760 kilometrs in his hang glider in Texas in 2014. The winner in the open class competition, which excluded all Canadians, was won by David Gibson of Utah. One woman, Jamie Shelden of Florida, competed in the meet and finished 17th overall. The competition each day consisted of flying

from a launch site around set turn-points, measured with GPS and racing into the finish most often at the Freedom Flight Park in Lumby. Each race averaged about 80km, with altitudes reaching 12000 feet. Meet organizers and Lumby Air Force Directors, Randy Rauck and Garth Hemming presented Boradaille with his trophy and $500 in prize money. Prizes totalling $2,800 were awarded to the top three Canadians, top five overall, and top three in the king post division. It was the 11th Canadian National Foot Launched, Free Flight Championship the club has produced since the mid-1970s. The previous championship, in 2010, attracted 18 competitors.

Swimmers will be sent off in 10 waves of 120 participants, beginning at 8 a.m. Meanwhile, funds raised each year by the Across the Lake Swim Society are used in part to help youngsters in the Central Okanagan learn essential water skills. In a joint effort with the YMCA, close to 1,400 Grade 3 students are provided with free swim lessons each year. “Swimming is a life saving skill, so it’s nice to be able to provide that to children here,” Rudd said. “They’re not going to become championship swimmers because of it, but it does teach them life-saving skills, like floating and treading water.” For more information, visit acrossthelakeswim. com.

Only few spots left to sign Teacher receives unique honour up for charity golf tourney A Kelowna man was one of 10 B.C./Yukon residents presented with a Commendation by federal Veterans Affairs Minister Erin O’Toole for exemplary service to veterans. Don Bingham joined the other recipients for the special presentation held earlier this week. Bingham was a social studies teacher at Kelowna Secondary School. He is instrumental in organizing, maintaining, and acting as master of ceremonies for the school’s Remembrance Day assembly. Bingham has also created a moving PowerPoint presentation on the importance of the school’s ceremony, which explains the protocol set out by the Royal Canadian Legion. He has ensured this presentation is available to all teachers.

Describing Kelowna’s contributions to Canada’s 20th century military history, the educational piece uses local stories

and artifacts, primary source images, pictures, and diaries. Bingham has forged a partnership with the Okanagan Military Museum to have all Grade 11 Social Studies students visit the museum and be taught by local military experts. He has also planned to have museum representatives visit the school and provide a chronicle of Canadians in Conflict from the Boer War to Afghanistan. In 2012, Mr. Bingham traveed to Juno Beach with students. Since then, he has sought to raise funds so that a brick can be purchased and placed for all Kelowna casualties of the Second World War. A plaque to be inscribed by KSS students will be laid at the Juno Beach Centre.

A committee of community-minded individuals has selected the United Way as the beneficiary of this year’s Kelowna Golf and Country Club charity golf tournament. Tournament co-chair John Weisbeck said there was a large selection of non-profit groups to select from as tournament beneficiary this year. “The (organizing) committee was pleased to unanimously award the United Way based on their diverse support of many organizations in need throughout the Okanagan Similkameen region. We are very pleased to be working with the United Way and KGCC and we encourage players to register teams soon, before we sell out,” Weisbeck said. There are still a few spots left in the July 27 tournament, which will include

opportunities to win over $100,000 in cash and prizes and the inaugural presentation of the red jackets; Par 3 hole-in-one prizes including opportunities to win $5,000 and $10,000, an Audi and a hot tub from Arctic Spas; a chance to win $10,000 in a putting contest; and a new Honda from Harmony Honda up for grabs in the “drive over the pond” contest. Golfers will also have a chance to golf with the tournament’s special guest, former National Hockey League player Greg Adams. Players can register online at golftheunitedway.eventbrite.ca. Local United Way board chairman Bruce Olsen extended a thanks both to the tournament sponsors and players who make this event a success. “We are looking forward to a great turnout,” Olsen said.

Entrepreneur grasps new cycling tourism opportunity The South Okanagan is now home to one of the first cycling “resort” offerings in North America. Giro Okanagan, founded by Kelowna digital marketing entrepreneur Gord Hotchkiss, is launching a new venture that combines the worldclass cycling offered by the region intended to showcase the “slow tourism” movement. Cycling tourism is big business, with billions being spent annually for cycling vacations worldwide. Most of these vacations are “point- to-point” type tours offered by companies such as Backcountry, Trek Vacations and Butterfield and Robinson. But recently, the concept of cycling destination resorts has

grown in popularity in locations such as Italy, France and Spain. These resorts offer a wide variety of route options with the convenience of staying in one location. This allows guests to gain a greater appreciation for the area and also gives them more flexibility in planning a cycling holiday. Giro Okanagan is one of the first cycling destination resort offerings in North America. While Hotchkiss lives in Kelowna, it was clear in the earliest planning stages that Penticton was a better choice as a cycling vacation hub. “The South Okanagan has a variety of routes that simply can’t be touched by other locations,” Hotchkiss said. “It sounds cliché to say it’s ‘world class’ but it is. In one week, a guest can cycle every day, through distinctly different terrains and environments— from desert to alpine high country to lush vineyards.” The province has recently recognized the importance of cycling in the South Okanagan by making it the pilot location for the Cycling Tourism and Signage Marketing Program. “We have some exceptional cycling routes. If you can bring those two things together into a seamless offering, you can offer a remarkable vacation. That’s our goal,”

Hotchkiss said. Giro Okanagan will offer vacation packages starting this fall and will run through a full season in 2016 from April through October, with a slow down during the summer, he said. But cycling won’t be the only thing that the South Okanagan offers. “We planned this from the beginning to be a slow tourism offering,” Hotchkiss said. “And this region is a natural fit for slow tourism.” Slow Tourism is a movement that is also taking root in Europe. Its purpose is to offer authentic, intimate, connected experiences that go beyond the typical vacation in the South Okanagan. For example, Giro Okanagan hosts farmto-table dinners working with an extensive network of tourism partners— artisans, winemakers and chefs. Hotchkiss was cofounder of Enquiro in Kelowna, which grew to be a digital marketing force in North America. He sold Enquiro to Yellow Page Media in 2010. While Giro Okanagan is a change in direction for Hotchkiss, he is very passionate about it. “I’ve always loved cycling. And it’s every cyclists dream to try to find a way to turn it into a full-time job. This is a way for me to do that.”

ORLANDO SCIENCE CENTRE

Mummies gathered from around the world Dewayne Bevil contributor

ORLANDO, Fla.— Mummies are people, too. That’s the underlying message of “Mummies of the World: The Exhibition,” which opened last month at Orlando Science Center. Among the displays are dozens of mummified bodies—human and animal—which date back thousands of years. Although the first sight is an elaborate Egyptian sarcophagus, the golden casing most associated with mummies in pop culture, the exhibit includes specimens from around the world. Some are from the wrappedtightly camp, created intentionally by their

survivors. Others are more accidental, transformed into mummies by weather or extraordinary burial conditions. To be considered a mummy, the body must have kept some of its soft tissue, such as skin or muscles, according to the American Exhibitions Inc., producer of Mummies of the World. In mummification, the natural decaying process is derailed, usually from a lack of moisture or oxygen. There’s a lot of history involved in these cases, but the exhibition also covers the modern-day science element. Since 1977, CT scans have been used to examine mummies without unwrapping them or using invasive techniques.

Using data from these exams, we can now know things such as cause of death, their last meals and if they, perhaps, walked with a limp. These details are posted near the mummies and help, well, bring the characters back to life. The bodies are arranged simply and individually in temperature- and humidity-controlled chambers. Unlike the famed “Bodies” exhibitions, the mummies are not arranged in active poses. The majority are flat on their backs as if looking toward the heavens. Among the displays is Baron von Holz, who died in the early 1600s. He has his boots on. He was found in a family

I did swallow hard with young bodies—some with “artificial cranial modification” or with organs exposed following

an autopsy. Among the nonmummy elements are shrunken heads (and cheap knock-offs), charms and disembodied hands and feet that were, at one point, considered souvenirs. That’s a practice I’m happy has not survived. Mummies of the World is included in admission to the Orlando Science Center. It’s open daily and will be in town through Nov. 29.

news _______________ DEALING WITH DEMENTIA

Help for those recently diagnosed Help is on the way for Kelowna residents living with a recent diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease or another dementia. The non-profit Alzheimer Society of B.C. brings its free Getting to Know Dementia workshop to the area Thursday, July 23. “Participants will receive basic information on dementia and the impact it has on the individual, their caregivers and their support network,” explained Carly Gronlund, the society’s support and education coordinator for Kelowna and the Central and North Okanagan. The introductory session reviews the different types of support available throughout the dementia journey, planning for the future and strategies for living well. The session is intended for people experiencing early symptoms of dementia, as well as family members or friends who are currently supporting a person with a recent dementia diagnosis. It is not intended for the general public or health care providers. The workshop runs from 1 to 3 p.m. at the Alzheimer Resource Centre, 307-1664 Richter St. Pre-registration is required; contact Carly Gronlund at 250-860-0305 or email cgronlund@alzheimerbc.org. The workshop is provided for free due to partial funding from the province, Provincial Employees Community Services Fund, Seacliff Foundation, RBC Foundation, Phyliss & Irving Snider Foundation, Victoria Foundation, Paul Lee Family Foundation, Merck Canada, Community Connection Health Foundation, Margaret Rothweiler Charitable Foundation, Cadillac Fairview, Lohn Foundation, Djavad Mowafaghian Foundation, Pfizer Canada Inc., Kaatza Foundation, London Drugs Foundation, Wheeler Family Foundation and by other contributions from individual donors.

Regardless of engine size you have under the Mustang’s shapely hood, this rear-wheel drive coupe aka Fastback is a very agreeable car to drive. The cabin is quiet and welcoming. There’s room for four inside, but the rear seats should be reserved for those who are not as longlimbed. It can get pretty cozy back there, especially if you’re tall and push the seat all the way back. You could argue that any spot in the Mustang is a “good” seat. Top up or down. Whether it’s the roar of the V8 or the polite grunting of the 2.3L EcoBoost, Ford’s iconic coupe/convertible can be compared with wine. It continues to get better with age.

Yukon Denali big in size, big in utility, big in luxury By Jim Robinson When it comes to full-size SUVs, GM goes to great lengths to please its consumers—literally. At more than 18 feet long (224.3 in), 74.4 in height and 80.5 in width, the Denali XL is just about as big as it gets and is aimed at buyers who need big towing, big cargo, big utility, and in the case of the Denali—big luxury. Based on GM’s full size pickup trucks, the Denali XL is joined by the Chevrolet Tahoe and Cadillac Escalade ESV in covering all the price and option bases in this class. In the GM premium luxury SUV price walk, the Yukon Denali fits nicely between the Chev and Caddy and the GMC comes in two models, the Yukon and the Yukon Denali. Both are available in short wheelbase and long wheelbase at 2,946 cm (116 in) and 3,302 cm (130.0 in) respectively, with the “XL” badge on both standing for the LWB. Denali indicates the top trim level. The Denali is fitted with GM’s big V8 workhorse, the 6.2-litre overhead valve engine now with direct fuel injection for 420 hp and 460 lb/ft of torque. Regular readers with long memories will recall I drove a similar Denali prior to Christmas 2014 which, like the rest of GM’s big SUVs, was equipped with the long-serving six-speed

automatic. Since that time, GM has introduced a new eightspeed automatic at the top end that is working its way down through its lineup. With driver selectable engine grade braking and tow/haul mode, fuel consumption of the Denali eight-speed is 16.2/11.4L/100 km city/ highway on the SWB and marginally higher on the LWB at 16.4/11.7L/100 km, as tested here. All Yukons use regular fuel. During a week of driving, my average was 15.0L/100 km, about right in the middle. Maximum towing rate on the SWB Denali is 3,674 kg (8,100 lb) and on the LWB as tested it is lower, at 3,538 kg (7,800 lb) due to its greater overall weight. As big as the towing numbers are, it’s the cargo/ passenger volume that sets the Denali XL apart, with cargo volume behind the Denali third row seat at 1,102 litres. With the third row folded, volume

Lexus RC F a high-tech adrenaline rush By Neil Moore

The 2015 Lexus RC F’s signature spindle grille is flanked by aggressively cut headlamps.

CONTRIBUTED

Lexus has never been the bad boy among automakers. Renowned for build quality, reliability and well-crafted interiors, Toyota’s luxury marque has always shied away from anything remotely racy or edgy in terms of styling. Recent efforts, however, have been less Buick-ey, and with the addition of this week’s tester to the lineup, the company may have moved the ‘naughty’ needle—just a tick. The all-new RC F is arguably the most fetching Lexus yet, and other than the $400K-plus LFA Supercar, also the most powerful. Mine was dipped in an electric shade of blue; its low-slung body tempting me from amongst the more sensible sedans, SUVs and crossovers parked at Toyota/ Lexus headquarters. Its sculpted sheet metal and classic coupe proportions highlight a cabin that is steeply raked and compact—offset by broad shoulders and pronounced wheel arches, looking like a big cat ready to pounce. The RC F was developed at the same time as the RC 350 coupe, but is lower, wider and longer than its 305 hp, 3.5-litre cousin. It

Neil Moore

shares the same wheelbase, but rolls on wider tires and gets a few more aerodynamic tweaks. Somewhat polarizing is the Lexus spindle grille. Many of today’s rides are sporting larger, more aggressive units, and it appears that Lexus has taken this to another level. That being said, its bold mesh pattern flanked by sharply cut headlamps and boomerang LED running lights, does make a striking first impression. There’s a large L-shaped cooling outlet to the rear of the front fender, and in back is the active rear wing—adopted from the LFA—that adds downforce I’ll probably not need on our strictly controlled motorways. Sculpted rear bumpers also improve airflow, and four stacked exhausts provide better breathing and hint

at the RC F’s sporting intentions. All of which could be a problem in view of the stepped up police presence for the Pan Am games. Not that I’m ‘anti safety,’ but when you’re in a vehicle like the RC F that can elevate driving to what many Europeans still enjoy, keep in mind that Canadian law enforcement and insurance companies won’t share in your enthusiasm. But that’s enough griping for now, as the RC F is a treat for the relative few. There’s only one trim level, and it starts at $81,650, with the optional Performance package adding $7,400. The RC F is only the second V8 powered F Series vehicle from Lexus, and like their first effort, the IS F, it is a rear driver powered by a 32-valve, Atkinson cycle 5.0-litre engine. In the IS F, this V8 produced 416 hp and 371 lb/ ft of torque. But with new cylinder heads and lighter moving parts, it is now making 467 and 389. This naturally aspirated engine is mated to an eight-speed Sports Direct Shift transmission that, depending on mode, can fire off gear changes more rapidly than I ever could with a manual. Mind you, I’d still like to have the option. That aside, a knob just right of the shift lever allows you to choose from Eco, Normal, Sport and Sport+ modes. I tried Eco—very briefly—and found it not only a wet blanket, but pointless. If you’re that concerned about fuel economy, the RC F isn’t for you. Even Normal, which is touted as the optimal balance 5between fuel efficiency and performance, pales next to the fun that can be had in Sport and Sport+. In particular with the lever slid to the left for manual gear selection. This can be accomplished with either steering wheel paddles or the stick, and either way the RC F’s once leisurely shifts will take only 0.1 of a second. Under hard throttle, each gear change is hammered into place, accompanied by a deep bellow from the exhaust, rising in tone as you approach its 7,100-rpm redline. Even in automatic mode, both Sport and Sport+ deliver a punchier throttle, hold each gear longer, and upshift and downshift more quickly and forcefully than Normal. As you’d expect in any rear-driver with this much power, the RC F can be tail happy. And although

Stacked quad exhausts give the 2015 Lexus RC F an aggressive look. At A Glance: Lexus RC F 2015 Body Style: Luxury sport coupe Drive Method: Front-engine, rear-wheel-drive, eight-speed automatic with manual shift mode Engine: 32-valve 5.0-litre DOHC V8 (467 hp, 389 lb/ft of torque) Fuel Consumption: 15.2/9.5/12.6 L/100km (city/hwy/comb) Cargo: 287 litres Performance: 0-100 km/h in 4.5 seconds Seating Capcity: four passengers Price: $81,650; Performance Package $7,400 (adds unique 19-inch wheels, torque vectoring differential, carbon fibre roof, carbon fibre wing, carbon fibre interior trim) Web Site: www.lexus.ca

Normal mode keeps this in check, both Sport settings allow the back end to slide out a little before reining it in. And then there’s Expert mode. Disable the VSC while in Sport+ and all bets are off. Both the traction control and vehicle stability control warning lights come on, and ‘Expert Mode’ lights up, leaving you pretty much on your own with 467 horses

turning the rear wheels. Without the necessary skills, or on a wet road, this could make you the next You Tube sensation. And not in a good way. As a daily driver, the RC F can work. Put it in either Normal or Eco, and with a moderate foot, it can be as tame as any family hauler. But don’t expect to do much hauling, as the trunk is 287 litres (albeit with a pass-through for skis), and

the back seats are snug for anybody much over fivefoot-eight. And forget about knee room with tall occupants up front. Fit and finish, however, is superb. Lexus interiors are among the best in the business, and the RC F is no exception with its leather seating, Alcantara armrests, brushed aluminum accents and aluminized fibre trim. I’m not a fan of the wobbly touchpad for adjusting audio, climate or nav on the fly. It’s a small gripe, and the infotainment system is otherwise fairly intuitive. When you’re spending this kind of coin, competition will be stiff—and it is with the BMW M4 and Audi RS 5 high on the list. I’ll let the gearheads duke it out as to which is the better performer, but when their decision rests on silly metrics like who’s 0.3 seconds faster on the track, I shake my head.

Everything is BIG With something as long as the XL, cross traffic alert is very handy for backing out of something such as a mall parking lot where some people zoom through lanes like their hair was on fire. GMC makes a big thing about interior noise reduction using the tagline, “quietly whispers premium” and that starts with thick acoustic glass on the windshield and front doors. Then GMC adds an engine bay noise barrier and sound deadening material in the floor sheet metal. The interior, of course, is splendid, with Java Burl wood and burnished alumi-

Looking to the rear, the power tailgate seems a long way back. The big 6.2-litre starts quietly, with a push button. Prod the gas and the Denali XL moves off serenely, but hit the pedal hard and all that torque comes in with a rush. Because you are higher off the ground and there is so much sound deadening, one must really watch the speedo as this truck always seems to be going faster than you think. The Denali, thanks to the moving grid backup camera, is surprisingly easy to tuck into any spot. Pricing? Well, that’s big too

starting at $77,130. The big ticket option at $3,555 was the Sun, Entertainment and Destination Package with power sunroof, nine-inch LCD movie screen and on. Stick in a few standup options such as $985 for the special 22-inch polished alloy wheels and $1,650 shipping fee and the grand total was $83,675. Strikingly handsome in ($995) White Diamond Tricoat paint, the GMC Denali XL 4WD is for those seeking the highest level of luxury, utility, towing and passenger capacity. What’s Best: This is a vehicle that will last for 10 to 15 years and still be worth good money at time of sale. What’s Worst: It’s not for those who worry about being fuel-efficient.

Singer Sarah Burton will make a concert stop in Kelowna on July 25 to perform at the Fleetwood Public House. CONCERT Sarah Burton Saturday July 25 Fleetwood Public House 2402 Highway 97 Kelowna Toronto-based singer/ songwriter Sarah Burton recently released her latest album Make Your Own Bed in March. Burton is now touring across Canada this summer, making a stop in Kelowna on July 25 to play the Fleetwood Public House. Burton’s playful soul has found its home in music through three diverse albums, and countless ups and downs while traversing the globe. Burton describes her latest record as fearless indie-pop and rock, putting the piano in the spotlight, while keeping balance with elaborate percussion, guitar and electronic beats.

Although each of the three main album recording sessions were different in style and approach, each focused on live studio takes, capturing both the rough-edged rawness of Ortega’s live performances and her smooth singing voice.

Based on the hit DreamWorks film and the true story that inspired it, Catch Me If You Can is the high flying, splashy musical that tells the story of Frank W. Abagnale, Jr., a teenager who runs away from home in search of the glamorous life. With nothing more than his boyish charm, a big imagination and millions of dollars in forged checks, Abagnale successfully poses as a pilot, a doctor and a lawyer, living the high life and winning the girl of his dreams. But his trail of lies catches the attention of FBI agent Carl Hanratty, who chases Frank to the end...and finds something

he never expected. “We’re really excited to be one of the first companies in British Columbia to produce Catch Me If You Can. This show is just pure fun—it’s a splashy, high-energy trip back to the ‘60s. This is a full-on dance show, and we’ve got a cast that’s definitely up to it,” said director Matt Brown. “Even if you’re not familiar with Frank’s amazing life story or the Steven Spielberg film, you will be drawn in by this fabulous new musical,” added KAS artistic managing director Randy Leslie, cast in the role of Carl Hanratty. “When I saw it for the first time, I was so blown away that I knew we had to bring it to the Okanagan. It mixes the vintage feel of the swinging 1960s with fresh show-stopping musical numbers and choreography. It’s just an incredibly fun and heartwarming show.” In the film, Leonardo DiCaprio played Frank Abagnale Jr., a young con-man who posed as a doctor, lawyer and Pan Am pilot before he was 21. Tom Hanks played the FBI agent who travels across several continents in pursuit of Abagnale. Playing DiCaprio’s role of the infamous con-man Chad Abrahamson. Abrahamson is in his final year of the opera

program at the University of Manitoba. His past roles with Kelowna Actors Studio include White Christmas, The Producers and Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dream Coat. Also featured in the production are Dharma Bizier as Brenda Strong. Bizier has been accepted into Sheridan College (Toronto) to study musical theatre in September. Recent credits include Rusty in Footloose (The Musical) and Tzeitel in last years successful run of Fiddler On The Roof. Casey Easton takes on the role of Frank Abagnale Sr. while KAS resident choreographer Jennifer Davies takes plays Paula Abagnale.

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

So far, critics seem to love it and most have stayed away from the obvious play on words. Shumer plays a woman who grew up hearing from her dad that monogamy isn’t realistic. As a result, she lives her life recklessly and avoids commitments while she concentrates on her successful career as a writer. Although she feels uninhibited, when she meets the subject of the new article she is writing, she starts wondering if there is something better than her chosen lifestyle.

Paul Dano (12 Years a Slave, Prisoners) plays the younger Wilson while Cusack plays the elder with Banks playing his second wife, Melinda, and Giamatti as his infamous therapist Eugene Landy.

RUTLAND LIBRARY

Expansion of facility celebrated Some 120 children and adults gathered earlier this week to celebrate the completed expansion of the Rutland branch of the Okanagan Regional Library. The occasion also served as the Plaza 33-located library’s kick-off to the Summer Reading Club program. The expansion has added 4,000 extra square-feet to the library. “It’s so nice that there is actually room to do things like this,” said Rutland resident and library page Andrew Fredrick. “Before, it seemed like there was only space for about 20 kids and now there are 120 here comfortably.” Summer Reading Club registration at the Rutland library has topped over 400 children. Fredrick’s mother,

Rhonda, added: “I’ve lived my life here and it’s wonderful that Rutland is starting to bloom. The addition to the library feels roomy and it’s great to have the kids’ section away from quiet study areas and the Internet stations.” The expanded space also includes a teenager area and a community meeting room. Furniture in the extra areas were purchased thanks to proceeds from the Dick and Jean Hall Funds held at the Central Okanagan Foundation. The foundation’s executive director, Bruce Davies, was on hand to see the renovations. “It’s wonderful to see the legacy of the Halls’ philanthropy living on to support literacy and helping youth in the

Rutland area,” he said. Information about the ORL’s Rutland branch
