SD23 to hold drop-in session MP Dan Albas named Shadow Minister Central Okanagan Public Schools has publicly released the results and analysis of their first survey about the future of its transportation system, which will be presented at an upcoming public drop-in session at Mount Boucherie Secondary School on Dec. 9 from 6 p.m. – 7:30 p.m. as well as various other locations. On Dec. 3 a second survey became available for the public to provide their feedback on the considerations, which will inform the committee’s final recommendations to the Board of Education.

The school district encourages all families, including those who do not receive bus service, to participate in these consultations to inform decisions as the Board of Education sets transportation service levels and determines its budget priorities for future school years.

On Nov. 29, Dan Albas, Member of Parliament for Central Okanagan— Similkameen—Nicola, was named Shadow Minister for Employment, Workforce Development and Disability Inclusion.

“I am very proud to be appointed the Shadow Minister for Employment, Workforce Development and Disability Inclusion,” said Albas. “Having a job is more than just a paycheque, it provides meaning, a place in the world. Building a skilled workforce is essential for ensuring that Canadians can realize their dreams

for themselves and their families. This includes the many persons with a disability who for too long have been unable to participate fully in our economy and our society.”

MP Albas continued, “I will work tirelessly to hold the government to account and make sure that Canadians can get ahead and that those in our struggling energy and forestry sectors can get back to work.”

The Conservative MP was re-elected for a third term in the October federal election.

ALC permits school construction on Webber Rd site Central Okanagan Public Schools has a viable site for a new secondary school in West Kelowna.

On Nov. 15, the Agricultural Land Commission (ALC) granted the school district’s request to build a secondary school on 14 acres on Webber Road.

The next step for the school district is to develop a project definition report to provide the province a feasibility and cost analysis to consider when approving major capital projects. If the province approves the project, the school will be completed within three to

four years.

Mount Boucherie Secondary School already exceeds its capacity by 10 per cent and is projected to grow by five per cent each year.

In March 2019, The Ministry of Education supported Central Okanagan Public Schools to search for a suitable site to accommodate its number one capital priority: building a second secondary school in West Kelowna.

The search was a challenge because there are few large sites in West Kelowna that are not in the Agricultural Land Reserve (ALR).

LYONEL DOHERTY The firing of a mall Santa in Penticton is a good lesson learned for social media buffs.

Gary Haupt, who loves portraying old St. Nick at Christmas time, was given the boot last week when someone complained about pictures he posted on his Facebook page. One photo showed him pretending to drink from a small whiskey flask while sitting on a couch with a friend. Another showed him reaching for a woman’s breasts, which he said was all in fun. Both incidents occurred in the privacy of his own home and with consent by the female participants. He was wearing a Santa suit at the time.

When Cherry Lane management received the complaint, Haupt was called into the office and fired prior to starting his job as mall Santa. What a bummer!

Many people defend Haupt, saying he did no wrong; his actions had nothing to do with his job. Some also argue that mall management was heavy handed and overzealous in the firing.

While they may be right, Haupt’s mistake was sharing those photos on social media.

It doesn’t matter if the behaviour occurs in private. It doesn’t matter if it’s not on company time. As soon as you click send on your keyboard, it’s game over; now the act is public and can be viewed

by anyone.

In fact, many employers shortlist candidates by viewing what they post on social media. For example, if the candidate is shown committing a questionable act, even in jest, he or she may have ruined their chance for an interview. And if you write something that could be interpreted as offensive, be prepared to face the consequences.

Bottom line: don’t post anything that could come back to haunt you.

While Haupt’s behaviour appeared innocent enough, you can’t blame some parents for thinking twice about letting their child sit on his lap. They don’t really know Haupt; all they know is he jokingly reached for a woman’s breasts and feigned drinking hard liquor from a flask.

Years ago this behaviour would not have raised a fuss, but in today’s society you can’t do anything without someone crying wolf.

Right or wrong, mall management took the safe road by firing this Santa and protecting its reputation. They canned an ostensibly good, down-to-earth guy who wouldn’t harm a flea.

But simple mistakes can cause a lot of grief in a world where someone is just waiting for you to fumble the ball at the one yard line.

Cherry may go overboard sometimes, but he’s a patriot I understand there is turmoil reference the firing of Don Cherry. I wanted to write in and say my piece. I believe Don is a true Canadian. I understand that he sometimes goes overboard with what he says but he definitely is someone that a lot of Canadians adore.

He has done so much for Canadian junior and minor hockey

awareness. It is too bad that he was removed from Sportsnet and now he has decided to step down from coaching the CHL/NHL Prospects game with Bobby Orr. I understand his reasoning for this as he wants to put the focus on the young kids coming up, not him.

As a veteran, I know first-hand what he has done for us. He is a

good person with a big heart and supports the military here in Canada and overseas. He is truly a patriot.

Please support Don and veterans with mental health issues by purchasing one of these pins.

The pin is $5 and will be shipped throughout Canada for free. For every pin sold $1 goes to support veterans with mental health

issues. The pin also shows Canadians that we cared about Don and what he has done for Canada.

I understand not everyone shares this opinion and that is fine, but for those who do please take the time to support him. Information can be obtained by emailing Doug at hockeysteppingstones@gmail. com.

This Christmas, remember Canadian Forces I am reaching out today to younger members of our community to help make Christmas seem a little closer to home this year for our Canadian Forces personnel who will still be deployed overseas.

These men and women will be away from their families during the holidays and a Christmas card from a Canadian youngster means a lot.

The Christmas cards can be handmade, bought and addressed to “Any Canadian Forces Member, PO Box

5140 Stn Forces, Belleville Ontario K8N 5W6.

You only need to put on a stamp for mailing in Canada and the Canadian Forces take care of the rest.

Please help put a smile of some faces.

Remember they can’t be with their own families so let’s help them join ours.

cil was sitting on the fence regarding the issue”. In fact, I was actually not the first person to bring up the rainbow crosswalk. Prior to me getting involved, this was already presented to council by the mayor, due to her constituents (not me) bringing it up.

Thirdly, your letter refers to some members of the LGBTQ+ community who have stayed in Peachland for more than 25-plus years and “were not pretentious or arrogant nor, to my knowledge, did they make demands of this nature.” And as for demands, I made no demands - only a presentation to better inform council on the history and evolution of the rainbow

crossing. I am sure Councillor Condon will confirm that as he pulled me aside after the council meeting to further express his views. There were no demands or threats, just civilized conversation.

So Tricia, as previously mentioned, you are entitled to your opinion, and no one, including me, is trying to change that, but I would be happy to take you for coffee at Bliss or a location of your choosing to perhaps further talk to you about a rainbow crosswalk in Peachland and share with you what I shared with council about the evolution on how the rainbow sidewalk is now a symbol for everyone regardless of their

First, let me start by saying, you are entitled to your opinion 100 per cent, right or wrong. You do not know me, yet you proceeded to call me demanding, pretentious, arrogant and having an agenda.

You are far from correct.

First, by only taking parts of my quotes, it is out of context and misleading.

Regional Floodplain Management Plan to help reduce flood risks JOANNE LAYH The regional district is getting closer to having the tools it needs to reduce flood risk, improve emergency response and increase resiliency to climate change.

That’s what Peachland council members heard at their Nov. 26 committee meeting, where they received an update from the regional district on the second phase of the Regional Floodplain Management Plan.

The latest work began last summer to assess and confirm the floodplains and alluvial fans for Trepanier Creek and Peachland Creek, among other areas in the region, and as a result of that work maps are currently being developed to show flood extents and elevations. When finalized, this information will help the community with future land use decisions, flood planning, risk assessment or other flood-related works.

The second phase is still in progress and includes: • Mission Creek floodplain mapping update; • Mission Creek dike breach analysis; • Okanagan Lake flood level mapping; • Wood and Kalamalka Lakes flood level mapping; • Major floodplains and alluvial fans; • Flood-prone sections of watercourses; • Trepanier and Bellevue Creek dike maintenance assessments; and

ILLUSTRATION RDCO

TREPANIER CREEK PROJECTION for a one in 200 year flood event.

• Dam failure inundation mapping.

The first phase of the regional floodplain management plan was completed in 2016 to get a better understanding of the flood risks within the regional district. Several recommendations for action came out of that work, including the need to confirm the floodplains and alluvial fans for both the Peachland and Trepanier Creeks within urban areas of the community. Funding for the project came from UBCM’s Community Emergency Preparedness Fund and the work was completed by Associated Engineering Ltd. The hope is that when the project is complete, the Floodplain Management Plan will provide the region with tools to reduce flood risk, improve

emergency response and increase resiliency to climate change.

Here in Peachland, RDCO director of community services Todd Cashin said that overall the objective is to assess the Peachland and Trepanier Creek channels and develop floodplain inundation maps.

“These maps will show flood extents and elevations, which will support District of Peachland staff in identifying potential hazard areas in the community,” Cashin said.

In his presentation Cashin said flooding has been happening in our valley post-glaciation for about 10,000 years and identified what impacts the community could expect from a one in 200 year flood event. He also noted that climate change

will bring new challenges.

“We know that temperatures are going to be going up, winter rainfall is going to be more than what we know now and winter snowfall is going to be less, so that is going to cause a shift in the hydrological regime and that could lead to changes and flooding characteristics,” Cahill said.

Associated Engineering Ltd. water resources engineer Geoffrey Cahill was at the presentation and told Peachland council members that preliminary results show Peachland Creek generally has capacity but

the culvert crossing at Renfrew Road may be undersized.

He went on to say that Trepanier Creek has a number of sites that would be at risk of flooding and provided maps that illustrate where the low ground and pinch points are in each creek.

“This image is reflective of what would happen in a one in 200 year flood event. This is the flooding you could expect based on the information we have today based on where the pinch points are, like Mr. Cahill spoke to the undersized culvert near the lakeshore. For example,

if that was to be upgraded in the next five years then obviously it would change how this flood model responds but using today’s information this is what you would expect if you saw a one in 200 year flood,” Cashin said.

Cashin cautioned that the map doesn’t take into account things like debris flows or a culvert getting plugged up.

“I think this is going to be extremely useful,” Mayor Cindy Fortin said.

The regional district is currently seeking funding for the third phase of the project, which will include mitigation strategies.

Help the University of Guelph improve hearing healthcare across Canada.

Connect Hearing and Professor Mark Fenske at the University of Guelph are seeking participants who are over 50 years of age, have never worn hearing aids and have not had a hearing test in the last 24 months, for a hearing study that investigates factors that can influence better hearing.

Study Parameters The researchers will examine listening in a range of situations, from one-on-one, to group conversations, watching TV and wider social contexts like supermarkets and other noisy environments, and how it effects connection and socialization.

Why Participate?

It is estimated that 46% of people aged 45 to 87 have some degree of hearing loss, but most do not seek a solution right away. In this study you’ll be playing an important part in determining the key factors around identifying hearing loss and what influences the decision to seek treatment.

Participants will be significantly adding to growing knowledge surrounding hearing loss.

You can register to be part of this groundbreaking new hearing study by calling 1.888.242.4892 or visiting connecthearing.ca/hearing-study *Wingfield, A., Tun, P. A., & McCoy, S. L. (2005).

PEACHLAND VIEW

HERE FOR SENIORS Three ways aging drivers can see better at night Many drivers are less comfortable driving at night than during the daytime. Despite the fact that far more vehicles are on the road during the daytime than at night, studies have shown that approximately 65 percent of accidents occur at night.

Many of those accidents and much of the discomfort drivers feel at night can be traced to inadequate lighting. Visual acuity, which is directly related to the amount of light provided by the environment, can be diminished by as much as 70 percent at night. The human eye is not adapted for nocturnal vision, so when driving at night, drivers often experience a loss of depth perception and difficulty distinguishing between colours as contrasts fade away.

This is especially problematic for aging drivers, a segment of the driving population that is on the rise. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, there were 36.8 million licensed drivers age 65 and older on the road in 2013, a figure the NHTSA estimates will increase to 57 million by 2030. As drivers age, the lenses of their eyes become more opaque, reducing the amount of light their eyes can receive. For example, at age 40, the average driver may already need twice as much light than a driver at age 20. At age 65, that need can climb to a whopping eight to 10 times more light (see graph).

But aging drivers need not sacrifice their nocturnal independence just to stay safe behind the wheel. The following are three ways aging motorists can improve their nighttime visibility.

1. Upgrade headlights.

According to a recent study from the automotive club AAA, the halogen headlights found in more than 80 percent of vehicles on the road today fail to safely illuminate unlit roadways, even when vehicles are moving at speeds as low as 40 miles per hour. Upgrade headlight bulbs are de-

THE HERITAGE RETIREMENT R0011770813 Ask ab out ou PV06 r WINT SPECIAER LS!

signed to put more light on the road, helping to combat the natural deterioration of vision that so many aging drivers deal with on a daily basis.

Philips Upgrade Headlight Bulbs can deliver up to 100 percent more light on the road than standard halogen bulbs, greatly improving nighttime visibility. Unlike major vehicle safety systems, such as air bags, three-point seat belts and anti-lock braking systems that provide “passive” protection for drivers, Philips lighting promotes “active” safety protection by increasing overall visibility and illumination. This allows drivers to not only see each other better, but also to see further down the road so they can avoid potential hazards.

2. Give fellow drivers more room.

In daylight hours, drivers might feel comfortable giving the vehicles in front of them a certain amount of room. Aging drivers can expand that comfort zone between themselves and fellow drivers at night. This extra space can help all motorists feel more comfortable, and it gives drivers more time to react if the drivers in front of them swerve or brake quickly.

3. Maintain headlights.

Often overlooked, headlight maintenance is another way older drivers can counter the effects that aging has on their nocturnal vision. Inspect headlights regularly, checking to make sure that plastic headlight lenses have not turned yellow or foggy. Designed to restore plastic lenses in less than 30 minutes, the Philips Headlight Restoration Kit quickly and effectively combats clouding on headlights as well as taillights, turn signals and reflective lens covers, helping aging drivers see more clearly at night while also making vehicles more visible to other drivers.

Transit service from Peachland to Penticton closer to becoming a reality JOANNE LAYH Bus service between Peachland and Penticton could be closer to becoming a reality.

Earlier this year the new transit route 70 bus began travelling from Penticton to Kelowna, making stops in Summerland and West Kelowna (where the bus terminates, and riders transfer onto another bus into Kelowna), however, the bus does not stop in Peachland.

When discussions initially got underway about this service, Peachland was at the table and expressed strong interest in participating in the service, then chief administrative officer Elsie Lemke told council. However, when the route began service between Penticton and Kelowna, Peachland wasn’t included.

On June 25 Peachland council passed a resolution instructing staff continue the conversations with the Regional District of Okanagan-Similkameen (RDOS) with respect to transit route 70 stopping in Peachland.

District staff recently met with RDOS staff and reviewed what some of the chal-

lenges may have been, including: • Two different unions representing transit drivers; • Travel times remaining as short as possible; • Safe pick-up/drop off locations; and • Allocating costs.

“It does not appear that any of these challenges will be show-stoppers, so the RDOS staff requested that a council resolution supporting the request be provided to their board for consideration,” Lemke said in her report to council.

Initial estimates suggest the cost to include a Peachland stop on the route would be about $8,000.

Mayor Cindy Fortin said the service would be good for citizens in Peachland with mobility challenges who like to go to Penticton for medical care.

“It sure would be great if we had that spot in front of the IGA in front of the mall someday,” Fortin said.

Council’s resolution will be presented to the RDOS board for consideration.

COMMUNITY

Festive season to kick off with annual Christmas Light Up event PATRICIA BARROWS

PEACHLAND BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB Friday, December 6 marks the annual Peachland Community Christmas Light Up. The Okanagan Boys and Girls Club is excited to help kick off the festive season.

The Peachland Historic School will be filled with activities from 4:30 p.m. - 6 p.m., including the art gallery open house and light up pre-parade party at the Okanagan Boys and Girls Club.

Families are also invited to stop in at the Peachland Chamber location across from Heritage Park, where BEEPS will host a kids’ workshop to create a yuletide log centerpiece from 4 p.m. – 7 p.m.

Back at the Peachland club, boys and girls club staff and volunteers welcome everyone to the pre-parade children’s party where activities include winter themed crafts, face painting, and a sing along with Papa Thom.

The Christmas glow parade begins at 6 p.m. Children and families will follow Santa along Beach Avenue to Heritage Park where more exciting festivities will take place, including the much anticipated count down and light up.

Heritage Park will be bustling with holiday cheer, entertainment, hot refreshments, a bouncy castle, games, face painting and a family photo booth for ev-

eryone to enjoy.

This wonderful free family event is offered by the District of Peachland. Be sure to bundle up and come down to join the fun.

Over the past three years our recreation program leader, Rachel, has made an incredible impact in the club, building valuable relationships with our children, youth, families, community and club staff.

We are very sad to announce that she has moved on to another opportunity.

Rachel’s positivity and zest for life brought such a great energy to the club and to everyone she met.

Whether it was hosting dinner and games nights with club kids and the Peachland Wellness Centre or leading our annual family Easter egg hunt or helping kids with math homework, Rachel was quick to take on any role with enthusiasm and a smile.

She will be missed but we wish her all the best in her new adventures and still hope to see her at our Peachland community events!

Rachel grew the Peachland Boys and Girls Club recreation program into a warm, welcoming, fun environment and developed strong partnerships with other service groups.

We are hopeful to find someone with her energy and dedication to join our great Peachland team and continue in her footsteps.

For information on any of our programs or career opportunities, we can be reached by phone at 250-7672515, email (peachland@ obgc.ca) or on Facebook at Okanagan Boys and Girls Clubs Peachland.

From the staff at the Peachland club we would like to wish everyone a wonderful holiday season and a very happy new year.
