Thespians welcome On Golden Pond
Oscar Award winning best actor Henry Fonda and best actress Katharine Hepburn in a scene from the movie “On Golden Pond”. Kamloops Players presents the 1979 Broadway play at the Stagehouse Theatre beginning October 2.
The Kamloops Players is opening their season and wants to share the love of live theatre with you. The Players will take theatre-going audiences on an entertaining journey through the season. As part of an ambitious array of shows, they begin with the critically acclaimed, American classic “On Golden Pond” by Ernest Thompson. The 1979 play won many awards both on and off Broadway as did the 1981 film of the same name, also written by Thompson. The play takes its name and is set at a cabin on a fictional lake in Maine, Golden Pond. The story deals with an aging couple facing the twilight years of a long and loving relationship. Truly a classic, the drama is liberally sprinkled with warmth and humour. Aging couple, Ethel and Norman Thayer
(played by Liz Ekering and Rod DeBoice), have spent their summers on Golden Pond for 48 years. This particular year, as Norman’s 80th birthday approaches, sees them again at their summer home but something a bit different happens over the span of the five months covered in the play. Not long after their return to the lake, their post man and long time friend Charlie (Laurel Brewer) turns up. Charlie reminisces about the Thayer’s daughter, Chelsea, whom he used to date, not knowing that Chelsea, in an uncharacteristic move, will be coming for a visit later on in the summer. Holy Mackinoly! For her visit, their adult daughter Chelsea (Cherie Poelzer), who has been somewhat estranged from her at times cantankerous father, brings along her fiancé Bill (Frank Kohlberger) and his
teenage son Billy Jr. (Brendan Kohlberger). The adult couple goes off to Europe, leaving the boy to stay with Ethel and Norman for a few weeks. Over the rest of the summer, Billy and Norman forge a bond during many hours spent together fishing. At times very funny and at times quite touching, this play is, above all, a love story about an aging couple in the twilight years of a long and devoted marriage. Also explored is the turbulent relationship between father and daughter, the gap between the generations and the difficulties facing an elderly couple. Thompson’s writing, both warm and witty, gives a keen perspective on family relationships which remains as relevant today as in 1979 when it was penned. Produced by Jessie Thomas and Directed by Dar- continued on page 2

Local, live theatre
Senior living at its best
The completion of the third building at the Riverbend Seniors Community on Tranquille Gateway Mayfair will see 20 supported, affordable seniors apartments. The Mayfair opening was celebrated by a ribbon cutting attended by residents who were joined by Suzan Goguen, MLA Terry Lake and City councillor Tina Lange. Mayfair, Brocklehurst Gemstone and Riverbend offer affordable housing and a variety of care for Seniors. A & T, Quinn Development and BC Housing were acknowledged for their partnership in another valued project on the North Shore.
Tranquille Market Corridor celebration In August of 2013 the City of Kamloops began upgrades to the commercial area known as the “Tranquille Market Corridor”. These celebrated upgrades included a new multi-use path, better traffic flow, improved sidewalks, better safety standards, new street lights and intensive beautification areas. The City of Kamloops and the North Shore Business Improvement Association (NSBIA) celebrated the completion of this project on September 20 with a celebration along Tranquille Road.
The Tranquille project provided some significant benefits to Tranquille Road’s business corridor. Improved lighting has enhanced the safety of pedestrians at crosswalks and provides a more vibrant atmosphere to the pedestrian corridor. The multiuse path provides a direct offroad connection of the bicycle paths at Overlanders Bridge to the shared bicycle path on Royal Avenue. The curb extensions constructed in the 200 and 300 blocks also improve the safety for pedestrians crossing Tranquille Road.
– continued from front cy Gorrill, On Golden Pond will be performed October 2 through 5, and October 10 and 11 at the Stage House Theatre, 422 Tranquille Road. The performance on Sunday, October 5 will be a matinee. Curtain times are 7:30 for the evening performances and 1:00 for the matinee. All tickets are available at kamloopslive.ca or by calling 250-374-5483. Kamloops Players Society is the original theatre group in Kamloops and have performed countless plays over the years for the enjoyment of the community. They always welcome new members and have lots of ways to participate and help to keep local live theatre alive and thriving in our city. Whether it be a dream to be on stage, getting involved with something behind the scenes or an interest in the front of the house activities, you can contribute in valued ways to the ongoing success of the Kamloops Players Society. Get involved for the love of theatre. Visit kamloopsplayers.com Jody Tippett
City counselors Pat Wallace and Marg Spina, North Shore Business Improvement Association manager Steven Puhallo, Reubin’s Diner owner Mike Ward, city councillors Tina Lange and Donovan Cavers were on hand for the ribbon cutting on Saturday, September 20 for the Grand Opening of the Tranquille Market Corridor.

Over 320 people responded and reserved seats. “Engagement is one of the Kamloops Chamber of Commerce’s mandates this year,” stated Aleece Laird, Kamloops Chamber Board of Directors president. “So when the Chamber had the opportunity to host this luncheon and to provide this unparalleled opportunity to its membership, and the
community as a whole, our organization was pleased to do the work needed to make this happen.” “It was wonderful to see so many of our Chamber members and business leaders out at the luncheon today,” said
Aleece. “We were pleased to see such an incredible turn out and our members have certainly been telling us what an opportunity this luncheon was to hear from premier Clark and to speak one on one with a cabinet minister.

Workplace benefits from the value of diversity BC declared September Disability Employment Month to celebrate people with disabilities in the workforce and the employers and communities throughout the province who pave the way to support them. The month aims to make BC the most progressive place for people with disabilities and encourage employers to make disability hiring a priority. Don McRae, minister of social development and social innovation said, “One of the things we heard loud and clear during our recent disability consultation is that many people with disabilities are able to work and want to work. It is time to raise the profile of people with disabilities as employees through education and leadership using examples of success to lead the way.” Nearly 15 percent of people over age 15 identify as having a disability and their employment rate is 18 percentage points lower than for people without disabilities. People with developmental disabilities make valuable contributions to their communities, families and to their workplaces gain confidence, independence

Is your daddy home? The boss of a big company needed to call one of his employees about an urgent problem with one of the main computers. He dialed the employees home phone number and was greeted with a child’s whispered on the first ring, “Hello?” Feeling put out at the inconvenience of having to talk to a youngster the boss asked, “Is your Daddy home?” “Yes.” whispered the small voice. May I talk with him?” the man asked. To the surprise of the boss, the small voice whispered, “No.” Wanting to talk with an adult, the boss asked, “Is your Mommy there?” “Yes.”, came the answer. “May I talk with her?” Again the small voice whispered, “No.” Knowing that it was not likely that a young child would be left home alone, the boss decided he would just leave a message with the person who should be there watching over the child. “Is there any one there besides you?” the boss asked the child.
“Yes”, whispered the child, “A policeman.” Wondering what a cop would be doing at his employee’s home, the boss asked, “May I speak with the policeman?” “No, he’s busy.” whispered the child. “Busy doing what?” asked the boss. “Talking to Daddy and Mommy and the Fireman.” came the whispered answer. Growing concerned and even worried as he heard what sounded like a helicopter through the ear piece on the phone the boss asked, “What is that noise?” “A hello-copper.” answered the whispering voice. “What is going on there?” asked the boss, now alarmed. In an awed whispering voice the child answered, “The search team just landed the hello-copper!” Alarmed, concerned and more than just a little frustrated the boss asked, “Why are they there?” Still whispering, the young voice replied along with a muffled giggle, “They’re looking for me!”
A patient goes to the doctor’s office where, much to his surprise the doctor asks him, “Would you please help me with a problem I’m having?” “Sure, doctor, what can I do for you,” says the patient. “Would you scream in the most earsplitting, piercing screams you can manage? Try to make it sound as if you’re in terrible pain.” The doctor says. “But why, doctor, you’ve always been gentle with me and your treatments have never caused me any pain?” asks the patient. “Yes,” says the doctor in a matter-of-fact tone, “but I have a four o’clock tee time at the golf course I don’t want to miss, and my waiting room is still full of patients.”

The Power of Being a Girl Conference The Kamloops Community YMCA-YWCA will host the 9th annual Power of Being a Girl Conference for 12 to 14 year old girls on Wednesday, October 15. Since 2006 the Power of Being a Girl Conference has seen over 1000 girls from Kamloops and area discover their talents and inner strength. Created for girls by girls, they learn, experience and have fun at a conference that is of-
fered at no cost to the participants so it is accessible to all the girls in the community. In a fun and safe environment, the participants learn ways to reduce risk of violence and bullying by building self esteem as well as having opportunities to enter into leadership roles.

Get your nominations in for Mayor’s Gala for the Arts Award Nominations are now being accepted to recognize artists and arts supporters in three award categories at the eighth annual Mayor’s Gala for the Arts. For 2015, awards will be given for each of the following three categories: Emerging Artist, Business in the Arts and Literary Arts. Emerging Artist recognizes an emerging Kamloops artist, musician or performer (age 18 to 35) working in the visual or performing arts for their current accomplishments and future potential. Business in the Arts recognizes outstanding Kamloops business leaders or businesses/corporations that have made a significant contribution supporting local arts and culture through donations, sponsorships, volunteer services or the support of a Kamloops artist. The third award, Literary Arts, will recognize a Kamloops artist or creator who has made a contribution through outstanding achievement in the literary
arts or criticism. Nomination forms can be found on the Mayor’s Gala for the Arts website at www.mayorsgalaforthearts.com. Nominations can be faxed to 250372-5089 or emailed to Kaitlin@ kamloopssymphony.com. The deadline for submission is October 15 at 5:00pm. Nominations received after this deadline will not be considered. Kamloops Art Gallery, Kamloops Symphony and Western Canada Theatre partner with the City of Kamloops each year for the Mayor’s Gala for the Arts to acknowledge, celebrate and inspire artists within Kamloops. The annual award was established to recognize the artistic and cultural achievements and contributions to the arts and culture community by artists and residents of the Thompson-Nicola Regional District (TNRD), including educators, organizations, business leaders, advocates and volunteers.

Public skating access for everyone
The City of Kamloops will be opening public skating to participants in wheelchairs. This addition of accessible recreation to the Parks, Culture and Recreation programs is new to the fall 2014 skating season. Drop-in programs
will be available at Brock and Valleyview arenas and will allow patrons in wheelchairs on the ice during public skating session. Helmets are mandatory for the person in the wheelchair. The wheelchair attendants must wear a helmet
October 1 is National Seniors Day, a day to honour the seniors who have helped build our country and continue to make valuable contributions in our communities. Sadly, many older adults in Kamloops are vulnerable to multiple forms of abuse and need the whole community to be vigilant and supportive. That’s the message from the Kamloops Community Response Network, which urges citizens to take time to “Show a Senior You Care”. Many seniors live in isolation and Kamloops residents can show a senior they care through gestures such as a smile and a good morning greeting. Simply taking the time to talk to an older person can make a big difference, as can inviting them for a meal or bringing a meal over, offering to help with chores or driving them to appointments. Visit bccrns.ca for more details.

echo stargazer LIBRA (Sept. 24 -Oct. 23) Venus enters your sign this week and will be traveling “with you” through Oct. 22. Her presence gives you an air of poise and beauty, and people will simply like how you look. SCORPIO (Oct. 24 –Nov. 22) Mercury moves into your sign on Sept. 27 and remains through Oct. 10. Then it turns retrograde for a few weeks. Do your research related to upcoming plans. However, do not spend a lot because of the retrograde. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 -Dec. 21) You have multiple favourable aspects involving travel or distant relationships, education, publishing and legal interests. All of that and great aspects concerning love life as well. Enjoy! CAPRICORN (Dec. 22.- Jan. 20) You may be under pressure to follow through and display work that you have been doing since last fall. Return mentally to the place you started in order to re-ignite your passion. This is not a time to quit. AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 -Feb. 19) You may feel some pressure to finish a long-term project related to your career or life direction. You will soon get there. Your relationship to partner(s) is positive and fun at this time. PISCES (Feb. 20-Mar. 20) It may seem to you as though almost everything is unsure, uncertain and up for grabs right now. Circumstances around you are not at all clear and it is better to leave all options open. ARIES (Mar. 21- April 20) Green lights are particularly smiling on you in relation to romance, fun, play and travel for pleasure. You are in the mood for something fresh and exciting. High tech gadgets may be on your radar at this time. TAURUS (Apr. 21- May 21) Your attention turns to personal healing or diet. For some there will be an improvement in the everyday environment at work. A new person may enter your work arena, which will be helpful and friendly.. GEMINI (May 22-June 21) You may feel a compulsion to clean up files, closets or other areas of detail. It is one way of organizing your mind. Focus your attention on new habits that will support your physical body and strengthen your mind. CANCER (June 22-July 22) This is a week to catch up on your reading and finish projects. October brings an eclipse season that is sometimes hard on your emotions. Relax now as your life will speed up soon enough. LEO (July 23-Aug 22) You have favorable aspects related to activities involving education, publishing, the Internet and travel. Delay issues may be present. However, the good fortune will likely find you in spite of detours. VIRGO (Aug. 23 -Sept. 23) Your ruling planet, Mercury, is changing signs to Scorpio. This represents a shift of attention from financial matters to focus on communications of those who are in your daily environment. You may need to consider the needs of your vehicle now.
