PRISMA challenges students Pacific Region International Summer Music Academy showcases symphonic music Exciting changes are in store for Pacific Region International Su m mer Mu sic Ac ademy (PRISMA)’s fourth season of presenting symphonic music to enthusiastic crowds in Powell River. They include a revamped community celebration at Willingdon Beach and a new format for the Gala Grand Opening at Evergreen Theatre. During the two-week festival from June 13 to 25, five major concerts conducted by music director Arthur Arnold will take place. A lso, f rom 5-8:30 pm on Wednesday, June 15, PRISMA on the Beach will showcase new music written by PRISMA composerin-residence Tobin Stokes and Tla’amin Nation musician Drew Blaney. It incorporates Tla’amin music into a full orchestra per-
formance celebrating the nation’s self-governance. “We are partnering with and recognizing the nationhood of the Tla’amin people,” explains PRISMA vice-president John Silver. “It is a special honour to work with them.” PRISMA’s 70-member festival orchestra, selected from 257 international student applicants, along with guest artists and Tla’amin drummers, will combine for the performance. The free event will also feature local musicians, food vendors and an air-show tribute by the Fraser Blues. On Friday, June 17, the Gala Grand Opening offers a greater number of musical selections than in years past and an array of music for different combinations of instruments. “We’re starting out with a little
ensemble, then solo or two players together, moving into a traditional chamber grouping,” says John, “and concluding with the full symphony orchestra, which we’ve never had at the opening concert.” Other Gala Opening features include Leroy Anderson’s Typewriter Concerto; percussionist Bill Linwood plays the typewriter. “It is a lot of fun,” says John. A l so, v iol i n i st Sha n non Fitzhenry, winner of the 2015 Concerto Competition, returns to play Carmen Fantasy by composer Pablo de Sarasate, and a short film by Claudia Medina about the Tla’amin Nation treaty will have its international premiere. Tw o s y m p h on y c on c e r t s take place Saturday, June 18, at 1:30 and 7:30 pm, featuring Beethoven’s Triple Concerto, with

cellist Amanda Forsyth, violinist Herbert Greenberg and pianist Sungpil Kim. The shows open with Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov’s Introduction and Wedding March and close w it h Dm it r i Shosta kov ich’s Symphony No. 5. “It will be a tremendous challenge for our orchestra,” says John, “but they will rise to it.” A chamber music concert featuring guest artists, including a Mozart trio and a Schumann piano quintet, takes place at 7:30 pm on Thursday, June 23. “It has incredible music; essential works in the chamber music repertoire,” says John. “Our guest artists are truly world-calibre musicians; it is going to be a stunning concert.” A complete list of all guest artists, including profiles, can be
found at orchestra-academy.ca. The festival’s closing concert on Saturday, June 25, includes the Concerto Competition final, where three finalists selected during a semi-final round on Thursday, June 16, perform with the full orchestra. “The winner once again receives an all-expenses paid trip to rehearse and perform with Moscow Symphony Orchestra,” says John. After intermission, the festival concludes with Gustav Mahler’s Fifth Symphony, performed by the festival orchestra. “It’s a huge work, a wonderful challenge for our students,” says John.

organized the event for more than two decades. “It’s really nice to see parents bring out their children and their grandchildren,” she says. “It’s a great chance for parents to mingle with other parents, and children from all the different centres from throughout Powell River can all come together.” Due to the number of children attending the event, Penner asks that all children attending have their preschool or daycare’s coloured name tag pinned to their clothing. Families are encouraged to stick around for the event and join in the fun, she says. Also, children can dress in costume if they wish, but it is not mandatory. Each local preschool and daycare is
invited to host an activity for the carnival and community partners come together to make the annual event a success, says Penner. “It takes all of Powell River to put this on,” she says, “so thanks to the community partners in this, and for all of the donations for the draw prizes.”

For more than 30 years, children and their families have been encouraged to gather with each other at the Annual Preschool Carnival. The community event, which takes place at Willingdon Beach (or Powell River Recreation Complex if weather does not cooperate), has been a longrunning celebration of all things preschool-related. “The event is something this community has done for a long time,” says organizer and Early Childhood Educators of BC member Roxanne Penner. “The neat thing is that now parents remember going to the carnival when they were children, so generation after generation has been able to go to this.” All good carnivals include fun, and the Annual Preschool Carnival is no exception. The free event is chock full of activities and games for the kids, a visit from ORCA Bus and prize draws throughout the two-hour event. The grand-prize draw again this year is a swimming pool filled with toys. Raffle tickets are $2, or three for $5, and the draws take place at 11:30 am. In years past, more than 100 children from community preschools and daycares have attended with their families, says Penner, who has

THE LAW CORNER Q: I am purchasing a home and have requested that my lawyer also act for my institutional lender. Is that acceptable? A: Yes. A lawyer is prohibited from acting for both the lender and the borrower in a conveyance transaction unless the lawyer recommends in writing that each party obtain independent legal advice and unless the transaction is a “simple” conveyance. A purchase of a house with a residential mortgage to an institutional lender is generally a “simple” conveyance. If you have any questions, please contact our office.

Franz Kals Born in Austria, March 1, 1944, Franz passed away with family by his side on May 9, 2016 in Powell River at the age of 72. Left to remember Franz and cherish a life well-lived are his daughters Marixa and Ingrid, as well as those who had the privilege of knowing him. Let’s raise a glass in remembrance on Saturday, June 11, at 2 pm at The Shinglemill.
Edward Irving Dunn June 13, 1922 - May 23, 2016
Born in Portage la Prairie, Manitoba, Ed served in World War II in the Royal Canadian Air Force as a wireless operator. He was stationed in the Queen Charlotte Islands and overseas in Germany. Ed came to Powell River in 1947 and worked as a papermaker for 40 years. While working at the mill, he also had a farm in Courtenay, producing tons of hay. In 1993, Ed built “our shack” on Texada, of which he was extremely proud. Left with memories are his wife of 63 years Sylvia, children Alastair (Kathy), Michael (Chris) and Susan (Lindsay Louie), grandchildren Kelsey (Mariel), Brandon, Michelle, Cameron and Matthew, and siblings John (Erma) and Mae (Wally Wachta). Special thanks to the staff of house six at Willingdon Creek Village for their care and compassion for Ed and our family the last seven months. A celebration of life will be held at a later date.

Don died of a heart attack at Dodd Lake; a place he loved to be. He is survived by his children: daughter Gina Pellegrin and her children Damon and Olivia; son Dave Pellegrin; and brothers and sisters Brian and Sandi Pellegrin, Gwen and Darren Mills, Rhondda and Bill Schreurs and Pam and Bill Olejarnik. Don will now be able to join his mom and dad, who passed away in the last year. Don loved the outdoors and passing away at Dodd Lake would be what he wanted. Don worked in the mill for 41 years and was an invaluable and caring member of the stock prep department. He will be missed by all who knew him. A celebration of life takes place from 1-4 pm on Saturday, June 11, at Beach Gardens Resort and Marina. In lieu of flowers, please donate to Heart and Stroke Foundation of BC and Yukon.
1010 Announcements SENIOR CITIZENS ASSOCIATION OF BC BRANCH #49 – POWELL RIVER
Capt W.R. (Russ) Wiggs Russ passed away peacefully on Friday, May 27. He was born in Victoria on November 1,1933. Russ was predeceased by his wife Barbara in 1996 and his sister Helen Irvine in 2007. He is survived by his sons Scott (Freda) and Big Ian, grandchildren Joey, Andrea (Christian), Little Ian and Roderick (Lacey) and greatgrandsons Tobias, Owen and the newest, at three weeks, Bowen. Our dad will be sadly missed by his many friends (especially Karen and Jodi and their families), colleagues and shipmates. Dad sailed and worked in the marine industry all his life. He sailed from the South Pacific to the Arctic. His claim to fame, among many, was being a seaman on the Princess Kathleen when it sank off Lena Point, Alaska, in 1952. He met Mom since while she was working as a stewardess with Canadian Pacific Railway Steamships; they married in 1957. inclusion In the ’60s, Dad sailed with Tidewater Marine on the Min Tide,RIVER POWELL towing oil rigs up and down the BC coast and to New Zealand, where he assisted in teaching New Zealander seaman in the art of how to tow and anchor-handle an oil rig. He sailed with the Canadian Navy Auxiliary Vessels in Esquimalt, sailing on ships such as CNAV Laymore, CNAV Whitethroat, CNAV Endeavour, CNAV Dundurn and CNAV St. Anthony. Russ was captain of the Texada Queen from 1969 to 1976, between Blubber Bay and Westview, and then became the marine superintendent for BC Department of Highways ferries. After leaving the government of BC in 1984, he went on to Yellowknife and the government of the Northwest Territories as director of marine operations. During his time with the GNWT, he was an active member of the Canadian Ferry Operators Association. He retired in 1994. Russ was a member of CP Coasters and Company of Master Mariners. He had a passion for golf, softball, fishing, the Monkey Tree Pub and telling stories that changed slightly, depending on who he was telling them to. A special thanks to staff at Parkwood Court for their care and support. No service by request but something will be planned for later on. Donations to BC Lung Association may be made in remembrance of Russ. 1954

Wide assortment of construction aggregates including our own quarry products. We have the equipment & services to complete any job, including our slinger truck!
A dump truck full of mouldy raspberries to the person who dug up and stole the four-foot beech tree from our yard north of town. We loved that little tree and were looking forward to watching it grow. It’s not too late to do the right thing and return it (please water and care for it in the meantime). If you brought it back, we’d send you a bouquet of roses and everyone would feel better. A hotel full of roses for those who put on a fantastic supper buffet on Mother’s Day. Very well done. Raspberries to those who seem to enjoy vandalizing and destroying private and public property. It could be you next. Roses to the local bus driver who always pulls over in the morning to let the local traffic go by. It is very much appreciated. Good for you! Roses to the very honest young woman who returned my backpack after it fell off the back of our truck on a local logging road this past weekend. Sleeping bags filled with stinking, rotting raspberries to whoever is responsible for creating the affordable housing crisis, and extra stinky sleeping bags to those who are supposed to protect Canadians from this happening. Raspberries to the people who feed bears in their yards. I mean, really, what are you thinking? Roses to the local coffee barista who always has a smile for me when I come in. Your enthusiasm for your job has not gone unnoticed.
