Council votes 6–1 to rezone PeachTree Village property DAN WALTON a lot of work to do on the District engaged EDITOR

editor@peachlandview.com

The soil at 5760-66 Beach Ave. became much more fruitful this week after council voted 6–1 to rezone the property, bringing developers another step closer to building PeachTree Village.

“I feel great,” Gaëtan Royer, CEO of CityState Consulting Services Ltd., said after Tuesday night’s council meeting. “But now the heavy duty work starts – we’ve got

the engineering details.”

Over the past three years, Royer said his team has been able to consult with large portions of the community, and after listening to concerns and making modifications, he feels that the public is generally accepting of his project.

The lone vote against came from Coun. Terry Condon, who was concerned that the five-storey building is too tall for its location. In 2010,

the public through a charrette process, he said, and “We got a clear message that they wanted lower buildings towards the water. This breaks faith with the kind of guidance we were given.”

Coun. Mike Kent said the PeachTree proposal checks off a lot of the boxes the District is looking for in a development.

“Maybe not all of them but reality is different than theory,” he said.

Kent also wants to see density added to the downtown. He promoted the concept of building up rather than out; preferring gentrification over urban sprawl.

Coun. Keith Thom said the building, with its tall dimensions, may be perceived as an eyesore in the beginning but he feels it will blend in over time.

Mayor Cindy Fortin said while the building “might be a little taller,” the District has been trying to entice a development like

PeachTree for the last 15 years. And with the high cost of downtown property, she said developers need a certain amount of volume to ensure a successful business model.

“I think it’s a beautifully designed building,” she said.

“Sure it’ll stick out at first but people will get used to it.”

Fortin, along with Coun.

Schierbeck, both pointed out how the Gateway complex stood out when it was first built in 2008 but has become a valued

part of the community.

“It might be the catalyst to encourage the neighbours (in the development community) to get involved as

well,” said Schierbeck.

The zoning application now goes to the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure for their approval.

150 Celebrating Milestones

DRAIN FASTER – This photos was taken several weeks ago when water was saturating the grounds of Todd’s RV & Campground.

Todd’s RV bouncing back after soggy spring DAN WALTON be EDITOR

The waters of Peachland haven’t been very co-operative this year.

It’s especially evident at Todd’s RV & Campground, where dozens of the sites have become unusable because of flooding.

Furthermore, a large portion of their campers are also boaters, and without boat access to the lake, there have been many cancellations.

“We have 55 sites out of 80 that we have right now functioning,” said co-owner Kelly Todd. And even with the capacity they do have, their ability to take reservations has been hindered because they have no way of knowing when the sites will

useable. Compounding their challenges even more, access to the campground is blocked along Beach Avenue, and the detour is tricky for RVs. “Normally right now we’d be running about 70 nights full a site and right now we only have 55 available,” Todd said. “The lake level has been a big hit for tourism for all of Peachland.”

In the campground business, “Once you’ve lost a night you can’t regain it,” she said.

There has been one encouraging effect however – Todd’s been noticing more campers using the traffic-free lake to kayak and paddle board.

“Campers are enjoying the quietness of the town but it certainly would be nice

to have the tourists.”

In 61 years operation, Todd’s RV has never had to deal with anywhere near this much destruction.

But nevertheless, the people who are using the campground are very appreciative of what’s being offered, she said.

Currently, the Todd’s are working to elevate a washed out road to reopen up the 30 sites that are out-

of-order.

“Graham Todd (co-owner) is building it up with a bobcat using crushed rocks,” she said, but whether or not it works, “won’t know until we actually put a vehicle on it.”

After losing the shoreline docks all around the District, Todd said campers really appreciate them and hopes to see them replaced.

“I’m 56 and I don’t

ever remember there not being a dock.”

Fortunately, it seems as though the worst is over. Lake levels have been gradually receding, and on Wednesday, the public boat launch near 8th Street reopened to the public. It’s a “Great sign things are moving in the right direction,” Coun. Mike Kent said at Tuesday’s regular council meeting.

The 150th anniversary of Canada’s Confederation is a time to celebrate our nation.

This milestone is a great time to celebrate with family and friends the enduring spirit of our great nation — strong and free.

JON NETELENBOS

PEACHLAND COLUMNIST My late mother during the early 1960s would often remind me and my siblings that language will never subjugate us.

Rather, she explained, we own and make the language and decide its destiny, and for that reason it must always show deference to us.

This view, however, wasn’t shared by my language arts teacher who drilled into us every conceivable rule of grammar covering punctuation, style, and syntax.

She would spend forty minutes discussing the nominative case, and by the end of the class we knew less than when we had started. Still, over the years there were some things that stuck with us. Because the language arts teachers tended to be very prescriptive about rules of grammar, they had a quantifiable influence on students’ understanding of word usage and definition. I don’t think any 50s or 60s students—today’s baby boomers—would have difficulty selecting the correct form in these two sentences: “Several patients said they felt nauseous” or “Several patients said they felt nauseated.” The latter usage (verb) is correct and the former (adjective) is not. Yet “nauseous” is a word often used incorrectly, even by health care professionals.

In the “The seeds produced less than 50 pounds of tomatoes” or “The seeds produced fewer than 50 pounds of tomatoes,” the latter sentence is correct.

As a rule, though with some exceptions, “less” aligns with a singular; “fewer” with a plural. Surprisingly, these two words are habitually misused. Consider this: “Budget cuts mean less subsidies will be given to provincial health committees.”

In this example, “less” should be replaced by “fewer.”

Consider the word “concerning.” Back in my school days, it was simply used as a preposition as in, “We will discuss re-

cent findings concerning the lunar probe project.” However, for the last year or so, the entire English-speaking world seems to have fallen in love with the adjectival form of “concerning,” such as in the sentence, “I find this violent movie very concerning.” Why is everyone jumping on the “concerning” bandwagon when the English language offers so many more descriptive synonyms as an alternative (examples: troublesome, unpleasant, distressing, alarming, etc.)?

There are also hackneyed phrases that are fast approaching their demise. “At the end of the day,” tops the list, followed by “That’s the cost of doing business,” and “It is what it is.”

According to the Oxford English Dictionary’s website, during this year’s first quarter, more than 500 new words and phrases, have been made to the OED. Over the last decade we have also seen the introduction of the word “segway,” which has the same meaning and pronunciation as the original word “segue.”

The “segway” name is also the brand name of a motorized two-wheel vehicle.

Yet the world’s most celebrated novel word, “covfefe” (pronounced cuvfey-fey), was born this year. Although its definition has not yet been officially confirmed, rumor has it that the word means the sharing of a coffee or other libation, usually in proximity to a scenic lake and townsite. Do we need to say more? Peachland, because of all its inner and surrounding beauty and ambience, embodies that definition.

My mother was quite correct in her views about language, although I doubt she would have ever predicted the birth of “covfefe.” If this three-syllable word and its rumored definition become an authoritative dictionary entry, I wonder if the current holder of America’s highest political office will ever realize that he unwittingly boosted Peachland’s tourism economy.

Practice good garbage habits Dear editor: I am not a letter writer and in fact this is the first letter I have written regarding a news or editorial comment. However after reading Mr. Hurd’s thoughts regarding the bear that was destroyed in Desert Pines, I felt compelled to also comment.

First let me say unequivocally that I 100 per cent agree with Mr. Hurd’s position. Secondly we who live on Sutherland Road also have a bear in our neighborhood which will probably meet the same fate.

There are individuals on our street who are not responsible enough to keep their garbage in a secure area until the morning of garbage pick-up. Not only is this inviting trouble on themselves, it is a danger to their neighbours. If a bear is in a neighborhood it is there because there is a food source.

Eliminate the source and the bear will leave. To do otherwise is not only lazy and irresponsible it creates a habituated bear which is a dangerous bear.

My understanding is there are bylaws in place that prohibit and fine individuals that are guilty of this type of conduct. My question would be why are they not being enforced?

Certainly there is plenty of community support to stop any political backlash if that is a consideration. It’s 2017 and we all know better.

What’s next–parking meters?

Dear editor: Council’s desire to bring more businesses and traffic to Peachland’s downtown core brings up the problem of not enough parking. Will council consider parking meters? I believe that is another reason to drive people away. At the public hearing on June 13, 2017, a number of people expressed a desire to move off the mountain or move from out of town to Peachland Flats. Don’t hold your breath and wait for de-

velopment. Place an ad in the paper with your wish to buy a piece of paradise. You may be surprised at how many upset homeowners would listen to a fair market value offer. And when you cannot get a parking spot in front of your house, talk to town council about a resident parking permit.

Council seems to be listening to all options these days.

OPINION

Opinion on each option of the Peachland Transportation Study Dear editor: The major traffic jams caused by the Okanagan Lake level damage and resulting remedial work required are no one’s fault. However, this has certainly highlighted the inadequacies of Highway 97 through Peachland.

Our normal summer increases in traffic will do so even more.

The Highway 97 - Peachland Transportation Study is assessing options for the Highway 97 corridor in Peachland for the short, medium and long term. Make no mistake, the main concern for MOTI is to find the most efficient way to get traffic THROUGH Peachland quickly and safely. It is up to the Peachland Municipal Council and the citizens of Peachland to insure that whatever decisions are made enhance the quality of life and movement of people WITHIN Peachland.

Whether you are an advocate of the Peachland Bypass or favour four–laning in place,

it is not too late for input into the Peachland Transportation Study preliminary options.

PLEASE go to gov. bc/peachlandtransportationstudy and examine very closely all the options presented. Click on Community Engagement, then onto Open House Display Boards (PDF, 7MB) OR Consultation Companion (PDF, 9MB) to see the maps of the options.

Consider how each option will affect you and your travel within Peachland. (ie: If you are coming down Drought Hill and want to access Buchanan where would you have to go? If you are coming down Ponderosa Drive and want to access the highway northbound, how would you do so?

If you live near Hardy or Renfrew - where would you access the highway?) Everyone will be affected so look carefully at how your routings would be changed with each option. Email your comments to peachl a n d 9 7s t u d y @ g o v. bc.ca subject Peachland Transportation Study.

Comments On Peachland Transportation Study Preliminary Options: Alternate route would cause least disruption throughout construction and would not impact municipal traffic within Peachland forever.

The existing highway could be designated scenic tourist route to bring visitors into town without interfering with through traffic.

Distances would be shortened for traffic heading south from the Connector.

Options 1, 2, and 3 would cause the least disruption within existing neighborhoods.

Intersections with existing roads and Highways would have to allow access and egress from all directions.

Drought Hill Option 1: North turn okay; south turn - all would have to go to Bucha na n/ Huston; Much more traffic for Robinson Place; No access for Monaco development.

Option 2a: Can turn both north and south; Access for development.

Giving due credit I just wanted to recognize two upstanding Peachland residents Shayne Moritz and Vince Boyko - who have been swimming out in the lake in recent mornings and collecting empty sand bags that have been swallowed up by the lake in the recent storm.

It is fine citizens like you that make Peachland such a wonderful community to live in. Thank you for helping to keep Peachland clean.

Odina Skovgaard Peachland

There are solutions better than public shaming Dear editor:

I would not normally reply publicly to a letter to the editor, but seeing in bold print a headline reading, “Regarding Stupid People” with a photo of our and our neighbour’s homes in last Friday’s Peachland View, I feel compelled to respond.

First, let me say, it was stupid of us to leave our garbage out the night before pickup. That does not make us Stupid People. We know that bears are out scavenging for food but quite simply forgot…

Like all families, we have appointments, illnesses, finances, numerous obligations, etc on our minds at any given time. That is not an excuse, just a fact of life. We

made a mistake and we are sorry.

However, what happened to being a good neighbour? You had time to stop and take a picture, but did you not have time to knock on our door after the bear was gone to remind us about the welfare of this bear you so dramatically say we have killed? We care about the wildlife in our lovely community, but we also believe in caring for the people that surround us. A little common courtesy would not have gone amiss.

For those people reading this letter, please use it as a reminder to keep your garbage inside or secured until pickup.

Deborah Coutts Peachland

Note - difficult access means development will effectively be part of West Kelowna Option 2b: can turn north and south; two overpasses Trepanier Bench to Huston Road Option 1a: light at Trepanier; if combined with Drought Hill Option 1 all traffic from Seclusion Bay south; Would have to go all the way to 13th to access the highway heading south; OR to go across the highway to Trepanier/Desert Pines subdivisions.

Option 1B: to go north must go to Huston/Buchanan light; MUCH more traffic on Huston or Clarence/Shaw.

Option 2A: VERY

awkward connection Lang to Eyre; To head north all Trepanier and Desert Pines traffic would have to go; Huston/Lang/Eyre/ Buchanan; To head south all would have to go Huston or Buchanan.

Option 2B: LOTS more traffic on. Huston, Clarence/Shaw; Better a access for north and south; Overpass.

Option 2C: Buchanan becomes main traffic artery for everybody above the highway; Major overpass; Lots of traffic on Huston/Clarence/ Shaw and Buchanan.

Ponderosa to Todd Option 1: Chidley Road much safer Option 2: Beach Ave

would have all north bound traffic from Ponderosa; Overpass and underpass; Chidley much safer.

Princeton to Beach Option 1: Same Option 2: OK but awkward - can see problems at corners.

South of Princeton Option 1: Mobile home parks? Access to lake side of highway?

Option 2: Only access from south end of town is onto Lipsett and then down Princeton; Bypass through middle of already developed Peachland.

Who would be responsible for bringing local roads up to connector road standards, construction and costs?

Please take the time to make your concerns known.

OPINION

District should have more authority over its own watershed Dear editor: Province needs to give Municipalities mandate over own water.

A recent World Wildlife Fund study stated Canada’s watersheds are at risk and this is in plain view today in the tourism-dependent town of Peachland in the Okanagan Valley.

A combined lack of political will and poor water management has resulted so far this year in: Peachland declaring a state of emergency due to a mudslide located at an abandoned mine near logging roads; a boil water advisory (four months so far, with residents forced to buy bottled drinking water); flooding of numerous streams and Okanagan Lake (due partially to clear-cut logging; up to 22% of Peachland’s harvested watershed acts as clear-cut). To top it off, there has been a dramatic decline in summer vis-

itors due to lakeshore flood conditions, with tourism our town’s lifeblood.

The WWF study stated, “The overall threat score for the Okanagan-Similkameen watershed is “high.” Pollution levels are “very high,” primarily due to industrial and municipal sources. Meanwhile, roads and railways create “high” levels of habitat fragmentation in the area…” While the Province mandates Peachland provide safe drinking water for its citizens, it does not permit the town any authority in the watershed, the source of that drinking water. Activities including logging, cattle ranging, mining and recreational use continue unchecked.

People may be surprised to learn that clear cut logging comprises 97% of all logging in the Okanagan, and continuous clear cuts can be as large as 1,000 hectares in some areas (a sports field is

one hectare). Clear cuts can retain up to 70% more snowpack depending on slope and can lose precipitation (rain and snow melt) 40% quicker than a canopied forest, resulting greater peak flow and flooding, which we are experiencing in the Okanagan today. This excess runoff has caused erosion damage to watersheds and town road infrastructure while increased sedimentation plays havoc with fish habitat and water treatment services.

The Peachland Watershed Protection Alliance is asking governments to consider a pause on clear cut logging in our watershed, until clear evidence of promised sustainability is certain. If left up to the discretion of the Provincial government, small community watersheds are destined to become vast areas of monoculture tree farms with cattle grazing, devoid of all other wildlife: water quali-

ty, tourism and land values are in serious threat of decline, and our most precious resource, water, left unprotected: is it sustainable?

In his statement to Mayor and Council at Ministry of Forest Lands and Natural Resources presentation on licensing activities within the Peachland Watershed, Mr. Ray Crampton the provincial executive director of Resource Management, Okanagan Shuswap at the June 13 COTW Forestry Licensee presentation claims ‘water is King’ and ‘logging is sustainable, no damage is being done’.

The users of the Peachland Watershed, the inhabitants within its forests and the residents of Peachland beg to differ.

Sincerely, Joe Klein Peachland Watershed Protection Alliance

cratically elected house.

The primary issue I raised last week was the Liberal Government’s proposed use of an “escalator tax” that would be levied on most wine, beer and spirits sold in Canada. Under an escalator tax essentially the tax rate is increased every year and is set by civil servants linked to inflation as opposed to having to come before the House for debate in the annual budget.

As I also speculated last week, despite considerable effort by the Liberal Government to the contrary, the Senate did indeed vote to amend the Liberal budget bill and removed

MEMBER OF PARLIAMENT Dan.Albas@parl.gc.ca In last week’s report I referenced the emerging new dynamic in Ottawa as the increasingly more independent Senate is interfering with the Liberal Governments Parliamentary agenda. While most of the response I heard locally was supportive of the Senate reviewing and amending legislation they believe to be flawed there are certainly some who oppose any intervention from an unelected Senate over bills passed in a demo-

the “escalator tax”. What happens next? Once the Senate amends legislation it must then be sent back to the House of Commons where the Liberals have already stated they will reject the amendment made by the Senate and insist on the inclusion of the escalator tax in the budget bill. This in turn has the potential to send the re-amended bill back to the Senate where it could potentially be amended again, thus creating a legislative standoff. At this point it is unclear what the outcome will be however many eyes in the Ottawa bubble are focused on this topic.

Peachland has its very own library, conveniently located in the Peachland Mall.

For those interested in Peachland history, there is a charming museum with its very own model railroad, directly across from Heritage Park.

Seniors can also consider joining one of the many Special Interest Groups (Sportsmen’s Association, Fall Fair Committee, etc) and Service Clubs (Lions Club, Rotary Club, Legion, etc.) to remain active and involved.

Walking the Centennial Pathway all along the lake is a way for anyone to stay fit.

This path is accessible at all times of the year and has a number of benches and rest areas, with beautiful lake and water views, all along the way. It is a geat place to meet and visit with friends and get to know the community.

For the very fit and

ing trails within the Peachland Community. Easy trails include The Bedford Trail Network, The Lookout Loop, Hardy Falls, and, of course, the Centennial Pathway.

Intermediate Trails include Stavepipe Trail and the Trepanier Trail. Pincushion Mountain is Peachland’s most diffciut trail but the reward is an impressive view from the summit.

As a draw to lure children and granchildren for visits Peachland offers a variety of family activities and makes a great location for family gatherings and even family reunions. Centrally located Swim Bay, right in the middle of Centennial Pathway on Beach Avenue, has a wheelchair accessible ramp that allows access to the water for those who are physically challenged.

Peachland couple enduring exhausting cycling challenge for charity DAN WALTON

EDITOR

editor@peachlandview.com

After setting out to raise $3,000 during the month of June to fight kids’ cancer, the Peachland Riders have already exceeded that goal – and there’s still time to keep growing that number.

The Peachland Riders are Abby Kendall and her partner Peter Kellerman.

Their efforts are part of the nation-wide fundraiser called the Great Cycle Challenge, which saw more than 10,000 riders raise nearly $1.8 million last year.

Kendall - In 2015, while feeling ecstatic about qualifying to run in the world-renowned Boston Marathon, she was diagnosed with breast cancer and had was unable to run. Shortly after the diagnoses, she and Kellerman fulfilled their plan of moving to Peachland, only a month before Kendall had to begin six rounds of chemotherapy and then a month of radiation.

Having been active all her life while working as a personal trainer, Kendall felt like treatment took a heavy toll on her body.

“I was lucky that I went into treatment healthy and fit, because I went from being able to run marathons, to barely being able to walk a mile,” she said.

Kendall stayed fit as best she could while going through treatment, and afterwards she slowly intensified her workouts to regain her strength. In April 2016 – a year after beginning chemotherapy – she was running again, taking part in a 10-kilometre race at Okanagan College.

After that, Kendall discovered the Great Cycle Challenge. Her goal was to ride 300 kilometres through the month of June while raising $500 “I was pretty excited that, with the help from sponsors, we raised almost $3,000!”

For 2017, she’s upping the anti. This year, she’s joined in the Great Cycle Challenge by Kellerman, and they set a goal

of pedalling 300 kilometres and $3,000.

But anybody who checks out the webpage – greatcyclechallenge.ca/Teams/ PeachlandRiders – can see that they’ve already made it 578.3 kilometres and raised $4,637.50 (as of press deadline).

Kendall and Kellerman make such ex-

hausting efforts to reduce the amount of suffering endured by children diagnosed with cancer.

“I couldn’t imagine children having to go through the treatments I had to, and many of them have to endure so much more.”

Dog training. So many choices CATHERINE ADAMS

PEACHLAND COLUMNIST If you look into dog training, there appears to be a myriad of ways to train a dog. The truth is, there are only 2 ways to train a dog. It’s not a matter of opinion but a matter of science: You’re either punishing behavior to stop it or reinforcing behavior to see more of it.

That’s it!

Dog training: removing the confusion When you consider training your dog, its important to understand the two ways dogs learn: Consequence (behavior): the action the dog performs, presents an outcome which results in something wanted or not wanted by the dog. An example of this would be the dog sitting and his food is put on the floor (a want). Another example is the dog sitting when the leash is pulled up thus the collar tightens and creates an uncomfortable pressure around the dog’s neck; the dog Sits to release the uncomfortable pressure around its neck.

The wanted in this case is the pressure to stop.

The 2nd way dogs learn is by association (emotional).

Just like us, dogs create associations to everything around them. The food bowl has a

good association because it means food. We can manipulate associations for dogs starting when they are puppies by creating positive associations to inanimate objects such as the leash. However, we can also create negative associations to the leash if it has been used to cause pain. This means that with every encounter the dog has, she is making an association and we have the ability to make those encounters positive or negative for the dog. Associations can be very strong and difficult to change so everything you do around your dog can influence the association she makes.

A dog’s view of the world is by consequence/behavior and association/emotional. They decide if the world is safe, not safe or neutral. What works for me? What doesn’t?

Based on this fact, it stands to reason that dogs are very self-serving. Everything they do serves to benefit them. Everything! Even when they are lunging on the leash or resorting to biting a human or dog, there is purpose to the action with the final result meant to benefit the dog. It also means that dog’s do not act out of spite towards you. Too often humans take their dogs behavior personally and base their own responses on this belief.

This is a disservice as your de-

cisions will not be about the dog but about you and the outcome could not bode well for dogs.

Don’t make behavior personal. Look at behavior from the dog’s point of view and ask yourself what does the dog want: something to happen or something to stop?

Dogs need us to lead them in our world with benevolence and in the way they learn.

We have a choice in how we train and have a relationship with them. We can be kind and reinforce behavior we want to see more of or we can use pain and fear in order to stop behavior from happening. Reinforcement and punishment work. Both produce results however there is baggage when you use punishment. The baggage is the negative association to you, the source of the punishment and that results in lost of trust from the dog in you!

The dog barks so you pet him. If you don’t pet him, the barking will stop and the dog will move on. He’s not trying to upset you or control you; he just wants you to pet him. If you do pet him, it worked. If he doesn’t stop, he’s not stubborn.

He needs more training.

Dogs are not people and they don’t’ get personal. They do what works!

Fundraiser & Gala To our Sponsors and Donors, to all who donated money, time, effort, and gifts to make our 2017 fundraiser a feverish success!

To all who attended - for your enthusiastic participation:

News in brief • Peachland tap water no longer needs to boiled to be safe.

Earlier this week, The Boil Water Notice was rescinded. Status was upgraded to “Good.”

• A fundraiser is being held on Canada Day to help the Busato family get back on their feet.

The family who lost their home to a fire late in April and Lambly’s Pub has teamed up with more than a dozen businesses for the July 1 event.

Donating to the effort is Petro Canada; Kelly O’Briens in Westbank; the Gasthaus on the Lake; IGA; Effective Printing; Peachland View; Edgewater Inn; Peachland Sushi; Boston Pizza; Murray’s Pizza; Sky Nails and Spa; Peachland Wine Shop; Ships-A-Hoy Fish and Chips; Lakeside Auto; #4 Hair; and SBT Seabuckthorn.

There is also a crowd-funding site where donations can be made – www.youcaring.com/anthonybusato-812390.

• Unlike many communities across British Columbia, Peachland dock owners can bypass provincial government to make repairs. Dock owners in Peachland are not required to work through the province, but instead can contact the District of Peachland directly with inquiries regarding the installation of a wharf or buoy. Visit peachland.ca/wharf-and-buoy or call the Planning Department at 250-767-3705.

• While the Chamber of Commerce organizes the majority of Canada Day Festivities, the Canada Day Parade is being co-ordinated by Lynn Herrin from the Peachland Lions Club.

Thank You All!

Your generosity allows us to continue to support community projects in Peachland and around the world.

Hidden concert in Peachland DAN WALTON

EDITOR

editor@peachlandview.com

A trio of talented songwriters will be turning a Peachland home into a concert venue next Thursday.

The Hideaway Tour is a collaboration between Sam Lynch, Cassidy Waring and Emily Rowed – all female songwriters from Vancouver. They’re travelling B.C. and Alberta to open up about life, share some stories and expose their vulnerabilities.

“House concerts encourage a certain type of listening that is usually difficult to find,” said Lynch, who’s grandparents, Ron and Cathy Heath, are hosting the Peachland performance.

“I spent a lot of my childhood with them living in the same house as them,” Lynch said.

“We write from our own perspective with different stories to share. For myself, I’ve been writing a lot lately about home and the concept of home, what that means to me. As well as my own experiences with mental health.”

There is no headlining act between the three singers as they rotate who goes first, second and third each night.

The Hideaway Tour is a big step

forward in Lynch’s musical career.

It’s the first time she’s put this much energy into sharing her music, and just recently she released her first-ever single.

“It’s called Mess You Made,” she said. “I wrote when I was going through a bit of a hard time. I had just gotten back from travelling by myself for five months – I was coming off this big wild exciting time, landing back in Vancouver and thinking, ‘shoot what am I doing with my life now?’”

After finishing school and travelling, Lynch felt like she had checked off all of the quintessential achievements of adolescence.

“But it didn’t feel like enough, and that can land you in a really strange place where you can make a mess for yourself.”

However, after turning those raw feelings into engaging music, she said the decision to share it publicly was nerve-racking.

“Sometimes you just gotta put it out though – holding on to something for too long is not good.”

The Hideaway Tour comes to Peachland on July 6. Admission is by donation with all proceeds going to the artists. Anybody interested in attending can get the details through the Facebook page w w w.facebook.com/ hideawaytour/peachlandpatioconcertseries.

Street drugs at their deadliest VIEW STAFF The regional health authority is asking heavy drug users to think a little harder about what they’re doing.

“Interior Health is urging Okanagan residents using or considering using drugs to reconsider in the wake of an increasing overdose trend over the past several months,” the organization said after counting 50 overdose deaths in the first four months of 2017, compared to 76 in all of 2016.

The increase in overdoses, more than 50 per cent greater than the year before, is more intense in the Okanagan than most other parts of the province. Heroin is causing the most overdoses around the Okanagan, followed by meth and coke, according the the health authority.

Interior Health suspects that some drug users will continue to consume illicit substances despite increased risk, so they’ve suggested some compromises: Don’t get high alone; don’t lock your high-self inside of anything; have somebody check on you; check on your high friends; carry a Naloxone kit and know how to use

it; don’t mix – not even with alcohol or medications; test for potency and don’t take large doses in small timeframes; recognize the signs of an overdose; the chance of dying is greatly reduced by doing drugs at the overdose prevention site in Kelowna; and finally, seek treatment for severe addiction.

Interior Health is also informing the public that a new law has been passed, the Canadian Good Samaritan Drug Overdose Act, which protects users from facing charges or arrest for drug possession if they call 9-1-1 to save the life of somebody experiencing an overdose.

“The biggest challenges we are facing in our overdose response right now are stigma and reaching the people who use drugs who are not street-involved,” said Dr. Silvina Mema, Medical Health Officer with Interior Health. “There is a big misperception out there that this overdose crisis is only affecting people who use heroin and are street involved, and that is simply not the case.”

TO REARRANGE – There were some big jobs for heavy equipment operators at the parking area south of Beach Avenue and Highway 97.

Senators . . . from Page 6 From a Parliamentary aspect it should not be overlooked that the idea of removing Senators from caucus to sit as independent Senators was championed and implemented

by Prime Minister Trudeau. In that respect some observers point out that this problem is one of the Liberal’s own creation.

However a closer

inspection reveals that the ‘Independent’ Senators appointed by the PM have actually voted in support of Liberal government bills close to 95% of the time. In reality it is former Liberal Senators now sitting as Independent Liberals and Conservative Senators who more frequently vote against Liberal legislation.

One point that all Ottawa pun-

dits do agree on is that the greater independence of the Senate has ultimately created a more powerful Senate. This is a point that has not been lost on Ottawa lobbyists either.

Recent lobbyist registry data shows that Senate lobbying has increased dramatically.

In fact Senators were lobbied more in 2016 than any other year in history with close to 700

interactions recorded. In 2015, the last year the former Government was in power, this number was 217.

Although the vast majority of citizens I have heard from support the Senate’s current efforts to stop the escalator tax there, may well come a time when the Senate stages an intervention on a democratically passed Bill that the public may be more supportive of.

Battling blood suckers VIEW STAFF Time to make life harder for mosquitos.

Next week (weather permitting), the Regional District of Central Okanagan will be sending a crew to Peachland from the Mosquito Control Program. They’ll be stopping at every roadside basin in the district to pour special potions into waters where mosquitoes are likely to breed. The efforts will be made next week, from Jul 3 to July 7, weather permitting. Crews from the RDCO Mosquito Control program will be wearing high visibility vests driving scooters or a Chevy pickup with Mosquito Control signage. Approximately 10,000 roadside catch basins will be treated in total. Another round of treatments is planned for later in the summer.

SPRING GARDEN PARTY –

The Peachland Wellness Centre’s Annual Spring Garden Party was held on Wednesday June 28.

Perfect weather was enjoyed for this outdoor gathering at the centre’s newly renovated garden that they share with the Club. This community garden is located on District land with 32 individual gardens which will grow fresh fruit, vegetables, and other plants. Speeches, children’s choir, adult singers, great food, and much networking took place with MC Papa Thom, MP Dan Albas and Mayor Cindy Fortin in attendance. Christina MacMaster chaired the event which was initiated by town crier Bruce Klippenstein. Over 100 people attended this spring wrap-up event.
