ment to make sure animals are controlled properly,” added Spiers. However, Baumbrough insisted there was a role for the city to play. “In terms of allowing a circus with exotic animals in your community, it’s up to the local jurisdiction,” she said. Clint Kanester, bylaw enforcement manager, questioned whether senior government can address issues. “If there is a problem, how difficult will it be to get the province involved?” he said. Under the bylaw proposed by staff and lawyers, a number of exotic animals would have been banned, including primates, non-domestic cats and dogs, bears, elephants, all reptiles and amphibians more than two-feet adult size, mongooses, saltwater fish and tarantulas. Coun. Patrick Nicol was absent during the discussion.

Vernon-Monashee MLA Eric Foster insists there was no choice but to go to referendum on the HST. On Monday, the select standing committee on legislative initiatives decided to hold a provincewide vote on the harmonized sales tax in September 2011, instead of the issue going back to the Legislature. “Eighteen or 20 per cent of the people signed a petition (opposing the HST) and I want to hear from the other 80 per cent,” said Foster, a committee member. “The people in favour of it will get a chance to vote for it now.” Foster denies the Liberals want to delay the issue in the hope the HST controversy will disappear. “If you look at the number of people who signed the petition, the issue won’t die and go away,” he said, adding that the government won’t step up the public relations machine just to convince Eric Foster voters the HST is positive. “We will try and make sure people have the facts but the people opposed will crank up their’s too.” Legislation dictates the timeline for the referendum and it also states that the proposal to overturn the tax would require approval from 50 per cent of all voters on the 2009 list and a majority in 60 per cent of constituencies. Premier Gordon Campbell has stated he will accept a simple majority outcome. “If people vote not to have an HST, we won’t have one,’ said Foster. Despite Campbell’s comments that he will accept the referendum results, Fight HST, which organized the petition campaign, is demanding the legislation be changed so the vote is binding. “First, as much as we welcome this change of heart, it is not his decision to make. He must reconvene the legislature and amend the Initiative Act to allow for a truly democratic referendum that is binding and requires a simple majority vote, since the current legislation does not allow for that,” said Bill Vander Zalm, Fight HST leader, in a release. The group is still threatening to recall Liberal MLAs. “We have finalized a strategy for recall that will be unveiled next week, depending on whether the government agrees to legislate a binding referendum with a simple majority,” Chris Delaney, a petition organizer, told The Morning Star. Foster, who is on the list of possible targets for recall, admits he is concerned about his political future but he stands by his decision on referendum. “To threaten recall when you are giving everyone a chance to vote, I find that interesting,” he said.

Vernon seeks support for RCMP costs The City of Vernon claims it’s unfairly covering policing costs for the rest of the region. Council will meet with the RCMP and the Ministry of the Solicitor General to discuss concerns that it is absorbing the bulk of the costs for officers and support staff for adjacent communities. “It appears from the numbers we are overpaying,� said Coun. Bob Spiers. According to a report, the city currently supplies virtually all support costs for the North Okanagan RCMP detachment of 38.5 employees. The city funds 33.5 full-time equivalent employees, while Coldstream covers two and

The costs and manpower increases due to a new records management system and other level service increases have also been largely covered by Vernon. “Vernon has been home to an integrated detachment since 2004,� said Kevin Bertles, finance manager, in the report. “The integration concept is simple, that shared resources can provide a higher level of service for a lower cost than operating a series of independent emergency response organizations. The concept fails, however, when the partners participate in funding with different levels of commitment.� According to Coun. Jack Gilroy, Vernon tax-

payers shouldn’t be footing most of the bill at a regional detachment. “All we want is some relief from the province,� he said. Spiers insists there’s a need to look at staff positions, what their duties entail and how the costs should be distributed. “With the crime analyst, how much time is spent in Vernon and how much elsewhere?� It’s been previously suggested that Vernon could withdraw from a regional policing model and have its own arrangements with the RCMP, but Gilroy doesn’t believe that’s likely as the force provides a valuable service. “Sometimes you have to say some things for leverage,� he said.

Lepage abandons appeal ROGER KNOX Morning Star Staff
The man declared a dangerous offender in connection with the 2006 kidnapping of an Armstrong girl is dropping his appeal of the designation. Paul Robert Lepage was declared a dangerous offender in October 2009 by Judge Peter Rogers in Vernon Supreme Court. A month later, Lepage announced plans to launch an appeal. Lepage’s lawyer, Rubinder Dhanu of Abbotsford, confirmed his client had dropped the appeal of the dangerous offender designation, but declined to comment on why the appeal was dropped.
Rogers found Lepage guilty in February 2008 of kidnapping, administering a drug to commit an indictable offence and sexual assault causing bodily harm in connection with a May 2006 kidnapping of a then-11-year-old girl from in front of a local video store. “I’m very pleased this matter is now concluded,” said Howard Pontious, Crown counsel in the case who sought the dangerous offender designation for Lepage. “It makes it clear to the victim that she can go on with her life without further concerns.” A dangerous offender designation carries with it an indeterminate jail sentence.

Tough fines part of new bylaw RICHARD ROLKE Morning Star Staff
Anyone breaking fire-related regulations in Vernon could be forking over cold, hard cash. The city is moving ahead with new fire prevention and fireworks bylaws and they include a revised fine schedule. “We hold the value of public safety very high,” said Lawrie Skolrood, deputy chief. “The issue was, ‘What are you going to do to me?’ It’s nice to have a bigger hammer.” When it comes to fireworks, the sale of such devices could lead to a $500 fine, while a $1,000 ticket each could be levied for possession or use of fireworks, discharging fireworks without a permit and dangerous use of fireworks. “We take the use of fireworks in a very serious manner,” said Skolrood, adding that the old penalty for being in possession of fireworks was $300. “It (bylaw) brings it more in line with what’s happening provincially.” Open air burning without a permit could net a fine of $300, while it could be $500 for burning in contravention of a permit and $500 for burning when it is hazardous to do so. Other fines include: failure to install a smoke alarm - $100, failure to keep lands and build-
ings in a safe condition - $300, failure to secure a vacant building - $500, failure to maintain fire department vehicle access - $300. Council has given three readings to the bylaw, and it must still be adopted.

Coldstream residents will now be flushing even more money down the drain for unexpected sewer costs. The district has implemented an increased consumption rate of $1.54 per cubic metre – up from $1.26. The hike, plus use of reserve funds, is needed to cover treatment and disposal costs sought by Vernon (which owns and operates the sewer treatment plant) reaching $850,000. Trevor Seibel, Coldstream’s director of financial administration, said the increased costs being sought by Vernon are due to an unexpected major increase in sewage coming from Coldstream. Coldstream is still looking into the issue to determine where the
increase came from. The possibility of someone illegally dumping excess sewage into the system has been flushed.

Trust fund supports families after tragic loss Morning Star Staff
A trust fund has been established at the Scotiabank in Lumby to help the families of Joe and Pete Huwer. The Huwer brothers were killed Sept. 5 when the small plane they were flying crashed into a field near Mabel Lake.
Left to carry on is Joe’s wife Shona, with four small children to raise and a cattle farm to run. Pete’s wife, Liliane, and children have a large hog farm to cope with. “In the true spirit of this community, Pete and Joe were always there to lend a hand to
anyone who needed it,” said Pat Pointer, who is helping to establish the trust funds. “Sadly, now their families could use your support. These two wonderful people have left us all too soon and is a huge loss to this community – they will be sadly missed by all.”
Donations can be dropped off or mailed to the trust fund at: Scotiabank, P.O. Box 40, Lumby, B.C., V0E 2G0. Please make cheques payable to “Mabel Lake Community Huwer Trust Fund.” For information about the trust fund, call Pat Pointer at 547-

Stoking the fire?
W
hat may be considered stone-cold embers can often spark to life if they are stirred enough. And that situation could arise based on comments Vernon fire chief Jeff Carlisle made about volunteer firefighting services Monday. While trying to convince council to reverse its decision to not fill a vacant deputy chief ’s position, Carlisle put forward an idea to save $100,000 a year — or roughly the wage for a deputy. “Having two separate contracts for volunteer associations requires significant extra costs for management oversight and duplicate systems,” he said. “The City of Vernon does not require two separate volunteer fireRichard Rolke fighting associations. The optimum arrangement in Vernon would be the integration into one volunteer firefighter association.” I’m confident it wasn’t intended by Carlisle, but just the suggestion of amalgamating volunteer forces could reignite hard feelings, particularly for members of the Okanagan Landing association. Back in early 2009, controversy surrounded a service plan that would have seen paid, fulltime firefighters at the Landing hall. Carlisle suggested a change in manpower to reflect what he said was a growing community and concerns about response times. Landing volunteers resisted the move, and challenged response times from their hall. Many felt that this was an attempt to eventually force volunteers out of the station. Public meetings erupted as both sides of the issue stated their case. General perceptions about how Okanagan

Landing had been treated since annexation into Vernon in 1993 also overshadowed the entire debate. Ultimately, council opted for the status quo but it took some time for those emotions to cool off. I suspect some Landing firefighters will see amalgamating the volunteer associations as a way of getting rid of them through the side door. They may feel that because of the 2009 dispute, they are on the outside with management whereas the Vernon Volunteer Firefighters Association is more entrenched in the system because it’s based out of the downtown hall, side-by-side with career firefighters. Some Okanagan Landing residents may also see this as another attempt by the city of stripping away the area’s sense of community and identity. Firefighters — whether volunteer or career — are dedicated and they can work together during an emergency, and that occurs often between the Landing and downtown crews. But talk of amalgamating the associations — and speculating about the reasons behind it — could force previous tension to bubble to the surface. And in terms of saving money to hire a deputy chief, having just one volunteer association isn’t an immediate fix. It was just in February of this year that the city inked a three-year contract with the Okanagan Landing Volunteer Firefighters Association to provide fire protection. “I am looking forward to working with the OKLVFA and collectively improving our emergency response system to all neighbourhood areas of Vernon,” said Carlisle at the time. “The OKLVFA is a critical component of Vernon’s fire service.” I’m sure that’s still the case, but the concern is how some people interpret Carlisle’s comments from earlier this week.
MLA Eric Foster tries to portray the Liberal government as the great defender of democracy but it’s all a diversion. Instead of wanting to ensure a voice for all British Columbians, the government is hoping the entire debate surrounding the harmonized sales tax will slip off the radar between now and September 2011’s referendum — that the public will become complacent and forget about the questionable actions prior to the tax coming into force. The coming year will also give the government considerable time to step up the pro-HST machine. Millions in taxpayers’ dollars will be spent trying to convince them that they made a mistake in signing the anti-HST petition and the government knows best. Premier Gordon Campbell promises that he will accept a simple majority result from the referendum, but that goes against the legislation which says such a process isn’t binding and a “double majority” vote. If Campbell truly wants to do the right thing, he will initiate immediate changes to the legislation so it reflects a simple majority and a binding outcome. He should also insist that a referendum is held sooner than later. By delaying a decision on the HST for a year, the Liberals could also help create continuous political turmoil. If Bill Vander Zalm initiates recall of MLAs, the government will be more focused on trying to preserve itself than running the province. What would have been best is to resolve the debate with a vote in the Legislature, but instead, the Liberals want to avoid the issue for a year.

Review rules of the road
S
ince the end of July, approximately 14 people have died in traffic incidents – just in the area between Vernon and the B.C./Alberta border. This number does not include incidents where only injuries occurred, and does include one person who was killed while stopped on the highway for an incident. It is time for everyone to review those ‘rules of the road’ you learned when you first took your driver's exam – whether it was 50 years ago or five months ago – and help keep the roads safe for those who are trying to attend incident sites. I have witnessed firsthand how few people follow the ‘rules of the road’ when it comes to emergency vehicles. According to ICBC and the ‘Learn to Drive Smart’ handbook, this is what you are supposed to do when you see emergency vehicles approaching you: ■ Emergency vehicles include police cars, ambulances and fire trucks. ■ Be aware - listen for sirens and watch for flashing lights — look to see where the emergency vehicle is coming from. Once the vehicle has passed, watch and listen because there may be others. TRANSIT WOES I have been told that the city of Vernon and the transit system are shutting down some routes. One is the one I use for everything from shopping to doctor appointments, pacemaker appointments and getting my medicine. I use it for everything because I do not drive and I do not have the money for cabs. So now how do I do all these things? Now, I know that there are a lot of other people in the same boat. Does anyone have any ideas on how to get the bus back or even to the way they started where you had to call in when you needed it would be fine. They knew how many people used our route before now so why did they change it to every half hour? I have been told that it's being closed because they are not making money on it, or the drivers were complaining that it was too long, that it was always late to the down-
■ Know the rules — emergency vehicles displaying flashing lights and sirens always have the right-of-way. All traffic moving in both directions must stop. ■ Exception: if you are on a divided highway and the emergency vehicle is approaching on the other side of the median, you may not need to stop. Make sure that it would be impossible for the emergency vehicle to move onto your side of the highway. ■ Clear a path — don’t block the path of emergency vehicles. Best thing to do is pull over to the right and come to a complete stop (or to the left if you’re driving in
town, or too few people on it. It changed with whoever I talked to and no one let me know if there was a way to get the bus route back. I sure hope they bring it back because I do not know what I am going to do if they do not. Thank you for your time and hope someone can help all who use and need that bus. Darlene MacKay SELF-ADVOCATES CONCERNED We are self-advocates representing persons with disabilities. We are concerned about what is happening to the day programs at Kindale Developmental Association. On June 8, 2010, a letter was sent by e-mail to all of us who are part of the Kindale family. He told us that Community Living BC had informed Kindale that because of a large deficit, they would be reducing funding for Day Options programs by 10 per cent. In order to meet those budget reductions Kindale will have to eliminate three
the left lane of a divided highway or on a one-way street) ■ Use your turn signal to let the emergency vehicle driver know you have seen the vehicle and are pulling over. ■ Do not stop in an intersection. ■ Think well ahead, and have a plan in mind to create a path for the emergency vehicle. If you simply pull over, but your vehicle is still moving, drivers of emergency vehicles do not know your intentions – and they have to assume the worst – that you may move back out into the lane of travel. ■ And continue to use your common
staff positions in our centre-based services. When we read the letter, we realized that the news was not good as it had an impact on all of us. From a staff member point of view, it is hard on them because it is their job to help consumers with developmental disabilities with their activities on a daily basis. Because of the cutbacks the staff members who lose their jobs are no longer able to help consumers with their needs. Also, as of Aug. 6, 2010, two of Kindale's Day Programs were closed on Fridays. This affects staff, consumers and the consumers' families and caregivers. It also affects the progress that was being made towards community inclusion in these programs. These cutbacks are a step backwards. This is not good at all, especially when our politicians say they don't have money for such things as health, education or welfare and yet they find money to give themselves big fat raises.
sense when you are stopped for a period of time because of an incident. This is not the time or place to: ■ Step out onto the roadway to get a photo or video of emergency vehicles arriving on scene. ■ Walk up to the scene to try to get a closer look at the incident – stay with your vehicle. You need to be ready to drive your vehicle when traffic starts moving – not a kilometre away trying to see what happened. ■ Try to take a picture or video while driving past the incident scene. ■ Take your child’s bike off the car, put their helmet on, and let them bike on the roadway because you think traffic is blocked off and not moving. Have a plan while travelling – take bottles of water and snacks, storybooks, games, etc – even for a short trip. And don’t leave your common sense at home – emergency service personnel are trying to assist those in need – not add to the number who need help. And they all want to go home at the end of their shift – in one piece. P. Walkden
Before the cutbacks we had enough staff support to bring us to self-advocates meetings in Vernon and then back to Armstrong. Now we are not sure what will happen. Already the self-advocates from Vernon had to miss out on a meeting because there was no staff person to drive them to Armstrong. This is in violation of our rights. How come it is okay for politicians to have more money than most citizens? It seem that ordinary people have to suffer so that they can have a royal pay cheque. Why is it that when it comes to funding cuts health and education are always the first? And why is it that after cutbacks happen it is not unusual to hear of politicians getting a raise? See any flaws here? Funding for health and education programs should be either raised or left alone. Take your stand and be heard. Ted Dekker, Liz Huisken, Janice Lamb, self-advocates

City looks to breathe life into air quality issues RICHARD ROLKE Morning Star Staff
The North Okanagan Regional District is under pressure to resume air quality activities. The City of Vernon will ask the district to revisit the issue of a regional air quality function during 2011 budget discussions. “Without a staff person at the regional district, virtually nothing has happened,� said Coun. Buffy Baumbrough. In March, the NORD board voted to eliminate $49,576 from the 2010 tax requisition for an air quality function, and will use reserves to fund remaining activities. On the expenditure side, the budget was cut from $87,780 to a projected $23,068. A city staff report indicates that the lack of dedicated time towards air quality is restricting access to government grants and air quality programs. “Air quality services provided by the regional district prior to the elimination of the air quality function included education addressing anti-idling, open burning, dust control, emissions management and wood stove efficiency,� said Brooke Marshall, environmental planner. “An orchard wood waste chipping program was initiated and bylaw harmonization, as well as data collection and analysis in collaboration with the Ministry of Environment and Interior Health.� The lack of a function has also meant no visible presence at the Okanagan Airshed Coalition, which develops strategies for improvements to air quality. The city has not taken on any of these duties because of a lack of resources, and the options, according to staff, are creating a staff position and providing services to other communities for a fee. There is little appetite among council members to take on the function alone. “Air quality in the
North Okanagan has always been a concern but it’s not just a city concern,� said Coun.
Mary-Jo O’Keefe. “Air quality is not just limited to the city. Much of the burning
does not take place in Vernon.� Mayor Wayne Lippert isn’t sure how
receptive other NORD jurisdictions will be to reconsidering an air quality function.
“No other community had an interest or willingness to fund it,� he said.
“We can bring it up but I can tell you it’s not something they want to keep alive.�

North Okanagan residents can get their football and science fix this week. As part of the Municipal Information Systems Association conference, the public will be able to listen to Michael ‘Pinball’ Clemons today at 4 p.m. (doors open at 3:30 p.m.) and Jay Ingram Thursday at 3:30 p.m. (doors open at 3 p.m.) at Wesbild Centre. There will be a minimum $5 donation for entry and proceeds will go towards the Vernon Jubilee Hospital’s Building A Tower of Care campaign. Clemons, chief executive officer of the Toronto Argonauts, retired as the Canadian Football League’s alltime, all-purpose yardage leader and the holder of a dozen Argo records. He also coached the Argonauts to a Grey Cup victory in 2004. Ingram, co-host of Discovery Channel’s Daily Planet, holds four honorary doctorate degrees from Carleton University, McGill University, McMaster and King’s College in Halifax, and he has written 10 books.

SIR program focus of meeting ROGER KNOX Morning Star Staff
Councillors, mayors and electoral area regional district directors needing a refresher on the sterile insect release (SIR) program have a chance this week. The Okanagan-Kootenay Sterile Insect Release program is facilitating a workshop for any local and municipal politician in the North Okanagan Regional District community Friday at 10 a.m. at the Village Green Hotel. “We want to get as much information into the hands of elected officials on the SIR program as we can,” said SIR chairman Kevin Flynn, joined by general manager Cara McCurrach, in an address to Spallumcheen council. Launched in 1992, the SIR is an environmentally safe, area-wide approach to the management of the codling Kevin Flynn moth populations in the fruit-growing areas of the Okanagan, Shuswap and Similkameen valleys. The original goal was to eradicate the codling moth, but, when it became apparent that total eradication wasn’t going to work, the program turned from area-wide management control. “It was supposed to be a short-term program and I think that’s part of the negative perception, why is the program still here and why are taxpayers still paying for it,” said Flynn. “The goal had to change.” With an annual budget of slightly more than $3 million, funded by property taxes and parcel taxes by the industry, the SIR’s target is to have less than 0.2 per cent codling moth damage on 90 per cent of the acreages in the areas as a whole. Flynn said the program benefits fruit growers, the communities and the economy. Part of the problem, said Flynn, is the program is not understood very well. “It’s an important regional district service,” he said. “It’s a very important area-wide management program that the industry values, but our taxpayers and elected officials don’t understand
the program. The program can only work with the support of all stakeholders.” All or portions of four regional districts take part in the SIR program: NORD, the Columbia Shuswap Regional District, Central Okanagan Regional District and Regional District of Okanagan Similkameen. Flynn and McCurrach encouraged council members and taxpayers to check out the program’s online guide at www.oksir.org for more information. Spallumcheen Mayor Will Hansma thanked the duo for their presentation. “Spallumcheen has always supported the SIR,” he said. “There’s never been a day that we couldn’t call up the program to have questions answered.”

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) - It might seem like the clever thing to do, but getting your associates to handle things for you instead of doing the work yourself will end poorly. Be self-sufficient. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) - Don’t do anything that could greatly weaken your financial wherewithal if things go south. Loading up more debt will place you in a hopeless position. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) - More losses will naturally occur if you are impractical regarding the management of your working funds. It would be like asking the fox to watch the henhouse for you. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) - Although you might see yourself possessing advantages in certain areas, your judgment may be based solely on a whole bunch of wishful thinking. Face the facts. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) - Even if there are ample opportunities around you where relationships are concerned, it isn’t likely that you will know how to use them in ways that could benefit you.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) - It’ll be hard to unwind something that goes awry between you and a few others, if neither you nor they are willing to accept what the problem might be.

HORMONES Q: I am having problems with sleep, sex drive, hot flashes and weight gain. What can I do? A: These are just a few symptoms of hormone dysfunction. You need hormone testing (saliva or blood tests) to identify imbalances. Treatment includes the use of bioidentical, plant based hormones that closely duplicate hormones your body produces. Natural hormones also slow the aging process.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) - Be particularly careful when it comes to anything that could affect some financial dealings you have with friends. Take care not to make any questionable maneuvers. ARIES (March 21-April 19) - There is nothing wrong with your ability to size up situations accurately, but that doesn’t mean you’ll follow what your common sense tells you to do. It’ll be your loss if you don’t.

ArtWalk brews up a taste for success CHRIS LAW
because it’s such a big part of our culture. The ambience, the service, the music – drinking coffee has become about the total experience,” said ArtWalk chairperson Sharon McCoubrey. The artwork on display represented every medium imaginable. Local artist Diane Wilde was participating in her second ArtWalk and used the opportunity to show a selection of oil paintings. The subject of several of her paintings came from another event in the community. While visiting the Lake Country Garden Club’s garden tour last summer, Wilde snapped some photos of the sights. Peering into the pictures, and focusing on the minutiae, Wilde used her oils to recreate detailed close-ups of the subtle contrasting textures of the plants. Wilde uses a somewhat unorthodox approach to oil painting that shows in her finished product. “I’m trained in watercolours and I just started working with oils this year to try something new. With the
Black Press
Okanagan art enthusiasts were drawn to Lake Country last weekend to attend the popular celebration of creativity that ArtWalk has become famous for.
This y e a r ’s s h o w g r e w from last year with work by close to 400 artists on display. No ArtWalk would be complete without a theme, and this year it was coffee. Decorations crafted from discarded coffee mugs and coffee bean sacks adorned each of the venues. Baristas were on hand showcasing their latte art and tempting taste buds with the warm aromas drifting through the air. The new Lake Country Art Gallery was added as an ArtWalk venue this year and housed a special coffee inspired gallery. “We chose coffee this year

Patricia Doyle gets some attention as she works on her beads during Lake Country’s coffee themed ArtWalk over the weekend. oils I’m using the techniques that I learned with watercolours and a lot of people are surprised to find out that they’re actually oil paintings,” said Wilde. ArtWalk is always a good place to find up-and-coming talent. This year the Centre for Arts and Technology got involved and put together a photography gallery featuring the work of some of its students.
Jaycee Van Der Linden is just finishing the school’s 12 month photography course. “It was a really good course and I learned a lot. They teach all kinds of camera techniques, but they also teach classes on business so that when you graduate you can actually build a career. Now that he’s working on starting his own business – Van Studio Photography – Van Der Linden was
thrilled to have the opportunity for the level of exposure that ArtWalk provides. As has been the case in each of the previous 16 ArtWalks, the hard work of this year’s organizing committee was once again successful in raising the bar on the previous year’s show. If their passionate commitment to the event is anything to judge by, history is bound to repeat itself next September.
Rippin’ Rattlers ready to rock Checkers Morning Star Staff
Vernon is about to be rattled. The Kootenay-based band, The Rippin’ Rattlers, are bringing their show to town Friday and Saturday night at 8:30 p.m. at Checkers Bar and Grill in the Best Western Vernon Lodge. Not only will they be rocking the stage, but starting Oct. 3 the group will run an open stage jam at Checkers every Sunday from 5 to 9 p.m. “There is a lot of talent in the Vernon area and we hope to make this a success for everyone involved,” said Perry Hooper, bassist for the group.
CIRCULATION Please feel free to call our new direct line to reach our Circulation Department.
“If you have a full band and want to showcase your act, please come down. If you are looking to hook up with other players in the area, this could be the venue for it.” Checkers is also eager to host local talent. “I book bands for weekends regularly and it’s difficult from a phone call to know if they are suitable for our venue,” said Pamela Lovig, manager of Checkers. “The Sunday Jam will give artists not only a chance to meet other musicians and perform for the public, but also a chance to showcase their talent directly to

Culture comes to life as the Vernon Public Art Gallery celebrates B.C. Culture Days with an artist demonstration by Susan Richards. A local, self-taught artist, Richards’ demonstration takes place Sept. 25 from 1 to 3 p.m. at the gallery. “Celebrate the arts with us by stopping by the gallery to see Susan’s creative process in action! Her jewelry is very popular with our gallery shop clientele,” said Dauna Grant, executive director. Richards uses found and recycled objects to create her unique pieces, which will be available for perusal and purchase. “I like to believe my art is an eclectic mix of classic and contemporary styles,” said Richards. “My jewelry has been described as an ‘interesting mix of rustic and really eye catching gorgeous’ and ‘the perfect, imperfect piece.’ I love the shaping of the actual metal and incorporating found objects into my work, be it old silver spoons, beach stones or vintage beads, which makes for many one of a kind pieces. “Most of my work is oxidized to bring out the beauty of the metal and give it that vintage look, reflecting the inspiration from which it
“My jewelry has been described as... ‘the perfect, imperfect piece.’” — Susan Richards came.” Richards has been creating oneof-a-kind jewelry for the past six years, as Studio 410. Self-taught and deeply passionate, she has always been involved with the arts; from attending The Alberta College of Art, to teaching and coordinating at the Vernon Arts Centre. Art and family have always been the foundation for her life, so when she had two daughters, now 15 and 18, it was an easy decision to stay at home, raise them and create her art. Richards also helps organize the Annual Okanagan Artisans Show and Sale and sell her art at several high-end boutiques and galleries throughout the Okanagan and the Lower Mainland. The Vernon Public Art Gallery is located at 3228 31st Ave. Hours are Monday to Friday: 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Saturdays: 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.

An intrepid explorer, Shane Philip has discovered a style of music without borders. Hailing from Quadra Island in the Gulf Islands, Philip constantly emerges and continues to impress thousands of music lovers across Canada. Just coming off this summer’s Komasket Music Festival, Philip returns to the Okanagan with shows at the Creekside Theatre in Lake Country Friday and at Lorenzo’s Café in Ashton Creek Saturday. His undeniably irresistible brand of organic roots music touches everything from reggae, roots, folk, rock, blues, world beat and more. Philip is a proponent of many instruments, which he uses, in his live shows.
His hands skillfully juggle between his didgeridoo, aslatua (an African double rattle) and djembe drum, along with the four or more guitars he has on hand, combined with a kick drum that his feet beat in combination with everything else. All of this makes for an unforgettable experience that keeps people coming back for more. Philip takes the stage at the Creekside, 10241 Bottomwood Lake Rd., Friday at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $18, $16 for students/seniors, and $56 for a group of four. Call 250-766-9309 to reserve. His performance at Lorenzo’s, 901 Mabel Lake Rd., east of Enderby, Saturday starts at 8 p.m. Call 250-8386700 to reserve.

A Vernon cyclist suffered minor injuries and received a ticket from police after being struck by a vehicle Sunday afternoon. The 35-year-old man had been riding his bike westbound on 25th Avenue on a sidewalk – which is illegal – when he was struck in the intersection at 39th Avenue by a 2000 GMC Safari van that had been travelling northbound. The accident happened around 4:30 p.m. Police report the van had stopped to make a right-hand turn at the intersection, then started to make the turn when the cyclist attempted to cross the intersection. The van could not stop in time and struck the cyclist, who was taken to Vernon Jubilee Hospital suffering from nose and facial lacerations and a sore wrist. The driver of the van was not injured, but the van suffered minor damage.

There is no concern about an early shift to cooler weather. “The cooler nights brings on great colour in the apples,” said Davison.

Twin Anchors lands top talent KEVIN MITCHELL Sports Editor
Now that he's almost done his work as general contractor for major renovations at the Vernon Curling Club, manager Dave Merklinger is turning his attention to the $72,000 Twin Anchors Houseboats Curling Classic. And he's got a stunning array of talent lined up for the annual extravaganza, including 35-year-old defending Classic and world champion Kevin Koe of Grande Prairie on the men's side and two Vancouver Winter Olympic medalists in the women's bracket. There is one slight change this year with the 24 women's rinks chasing $35,000 from Thursday, Sept. 30 through until Sunday, Oct. 3. The winner earns $7,500 with the runner-up pocketing $5,500. The men's side has been upped to 24 rinks from 16 and will feature a tripleknockout format from Oct. 1-4. The purse is $37,000 with first worth $8,000 and second $6,000. "We've got a new Russian-Canadian rink in the men's skipped by Jason Gunnlaugson" laughed Merklinger. "Russia is trying to medal in 2014 (Winter Olympics in Sochi) so they've recruited three Canadians and I guess given them citizenship. I guess we'll call them Ruskie Canadians." On April 28, Gunnlaugson announced his deal with the Russian Curling Federation. The negotiations are for the Winnipegger and teammates Tyler Forrest and Justin Richter to pair with two Russian curlers to create a Russian team and qualify for the 2014
Sochi Olympic Games at the Russian resort. Gunnlaugson is well known in the curling community for his up-weight peel shots. He is able to throw a rock with a four-second peel (time measured from hogline to hogline). Some of his shots were captured on YouTube from the 2008 Canadian Mixed Tournament. His female teammates were unable to keep up with the speed of the rock. Cheryl Bernard of Calgary (Winter Games silver medal) and Betty Wang of China (bronze) head the women's lineup which also includes former world champions Kelly Scott of Kelowna and Kelley Law of Richmond, and last year's Classic winner Team Japan (minus skip Moe Meguro) Former world champ Rick Folk and Brier veteran and three-time Classic winner Bob Ursel, both of Kelowna, 2009 provincial champion Sean Geall of Langley, and Vernon entries skipped by Aron Herrick, John Gardner and Merklinger will join overseas rinks from Korea, Switzerland, Japan and Russia.

6IPERS PEPPER 'ORILLAS KEEPER BUT FALL SHORT AT 3UNWAVE Morning Star Staff
Nearly three times the shots, but only one quarter the offence. The math just didn’t add up for the Vernon Vipers Saturday night at the Sunwave Centre in Salmon Arm. Dave Killip, on a powerplay, and Bryce Gervais scored goals in the opening two minutes as the Salmon Arm SilverBacks ousted the Vipers 4-1 before 1,184 B.C. Hockey League fans.
Gervais’ goal was a bit of an oddity as his dump-in attempt from just inside the redline deflected off the glass and into the open net as Vernon keeper Blake Voth left his crease to intercept the puck along the end boards. Just two games into the BCHL season and the Vipers have lost back-to-back games, something they only did twice all of last season. Head coach Mark Ferner notes the 2010-11 Vipers are a lot younger – they
basically had six 17-year-olds in the lineup last weekend – with a lot less experience than the squads that won two straight Royal Bank Cups. “If you want to compare teams, compare this team to the one three years ago when we (Ferner and assistant coach Jason Williamson) first got here. We’re starting over. “But even though we’re 0-2, from the first game to the second game we were a

heckuva lot better. We just have to keep that mentality that every time we step on the ice we’re going to get better.� Trailing by two goals, the Vipers settled into their game, allowing Salmon Arm just six shots until the end of the second period. Yet it was the Gorillas’ who scored early in the second frame as Josh Manson pounced on a turnover in front of Voth to make it 3-0.

Sports Heat sizzle Morning Star Staff
The UBC Okanagan Heat clipped the Capilano Blues 3-2 in BCCAA women’s soccer action Sunday in North Vancouver. Alexa Kennedy scored in the 67th and 75th minutes, while Emly Braun connected in the 65th minute for the Heat. The Heat didn’t settle into the game until well past the 20-minute mark, but once they did they were true to form and worked the ball well. The shot count was pretty even on for both teams and the keepers were up to the task as the game went into the half scoreless. At the start of the second half, the Heat made a few changes. However, Capilano struck first in the 50th minute with a shot/cross that sailed to the back post. The Blues quickly attacked again and pushed another goal across six minutes later to take a 2-0 lead. UBC Okanagan showed their mettle and battled back as fullback Jennifer Kidd stepped up and went on a run through the Blues team, then connected with Braun, who cut hard to the net and slotted the ball home. Just a minute later, Kennedy beat the keeper after being played through by Emma Nixon. The veteran duo combined for the winner as Kennedy buried another ball after being played in by Nixon.

Hadley collects first BCHL goal Continued from B1 “Instead of making simple plays we tried to do too much with it and coughed it up 10 feet in front of our net,” said Ferner, adding he expects growing pains with this young squad, but that his expectations will not change. “When you outshoot a team 34-13, you should win,” he said. “We need to keep it out of our net, we need those saves when we need them. “We need to find ways to get better quality opportunities, and when we get those opportunities, we need to bear down.” Ferner also knows that with his team in a rebuilding phase, opposing teams won’t hesitate to bring the hammer down to get a little payback. “We need to understand we’re going to be facing a team’s best game every night just because of what we’ve done in the past,” he said. Bryce Kakoske set up Vernon’s lone goal, protecting the puck in front of the net before dishing off to Aaron Hadley for an open-netter at 7:43 of the third period, his first as a Viper. Just as a Viper penalty expired, Salmon Arm completed the scoring at 17:40, with Matt Cassidy and Devin Gannon setting up Cody Michelle for his first BCHL goal. Netminder Kris Moore recorded 33 stops for the win and first star. The Vipers’ Dylan Walchuk was ejected for a check from behind early in the first period. Viper defenceman Adam Thompson and forward Kyle Murphy both missed weekend action with injuries. Ferner said he would not rush either back into the lineup, but hinted Murphy might be ready as the Vipers face the 2-0 Penticton

Magnums gun down Cougars Morning Star Staff
The Vernon Magnums stuffed the Penticton #2 Cougars 28-0 in Southern Interior Midget Football Conference Sunday action at Grahame Park. The 2-0 Magnums' offence came out fast once again, scoring all their points before the end of the first quarter. Game MVP Hayden Jones scored two touchdowns, running the ball up the middle behind the ferocious blocking of offensive linemen Zac Warner, Taylor Jameson and Skyler Mobey. Keenan Jespersen and Bryce Barker each added touchdowns, while Barker converted all four Vernon majors. The defensive unit shut down all attempts from the Cougar offence. Keenan Henry, Victor Hubscher and Taylor Jameson each recorded a fumble recovery. "Once again our entire team of players and coaches came to the field game-ready," said head coach Bill (Lumpy) Tarr. “I am so very impressed by the dedication shown by every single person in our community Midget program.” The Magnums travel to Invermere for league play this Sunday. In Junior Bantam action, the Marauders mauled the Kelowna Sun Devils 28-0 Sunday at Grahame Park. The Marauders scored on the opening kickoff with a well-executed reverse from Ty Kitzman to Levi Nicholas, who made a 75-yard dash behind a solid wall of blockers. Zack Kronbauer added
three more TDs and Trey Isaac was good on 2-of-4 convert attempts. Max Chapman rushed for 78 yards. "I was very impressed with the blocking efforts of Brandon Isaac, Jett Carey, Jordan Taylor, Carson Labrecque and Zack Barton," said line coach Cid Plouffe. "Receivers Zack Hyer and Carter Weir also made solid contributions to the scoring effort." On defence, Jonah Anstey was the leader with five tackles, two for major losses. Vance Rogers registered three tackles and a sack while Carter OlsenStiles pocketed three tackles and an interception. Brayden Wiebe and Jacob Mayner both registered three tackles for the 2-1 Marauders. The Vernon Pee Wee Yellowjackets lost their first game of the year 34-0 to the West Kelowna Sun Devils. Head coach Ed Huber said although the score was lopsided, there were several outstanding plays. Defensively, Josh Hyer stood out posting two QB sacks and numerous other tackles. Keith Jones, Weston Vanderveen and Ethan Ehman also made solo tackles. The Vernon Blue Bombers split a pair of Atom games, stopping Salmon Arm 25-6 Saturday before falling 32-12 to the Kelowna Dragons on Sunday. Ethan Anderson ran for two touchdowns and gained the offensive MVP. Tristen Baker also carried the ball for one TD and Nez Ford had the other. Ethan Mitchell hauled in his

"I know everybody wanted to play well for Hayden and sometimes that can be a bit of a problem. The guys were maybe a little too pumped up at times, but I think overall they represented him well. They played hard for him, and I know he was listening and fist-pumping right along with us." The Sun (6-1) had little trouble disposing of last-place Chilliwack (0-7) with a second straight shutout of the Huskers. Armand Bokitch, Tore Tarcon and Dan Turek scored the other touchdowns, while Steven Shott booted a pair of field goals. However, the offence, however, was largely ineffective as it continued to struggle putting together sustained drives. The Sun managed just 244 yards total offence, including a meagre 56 yards passing – not the type of production the coaching staff would prefer to see heading into the final three regular-season games. The Sun will be on the road for their next two contests – this Sunday in Surrey against the Rams, then Sunday, Sept. 26 in Victoria vs the Rebels. Okanagan's next home action and final game of the regular season is Sunday, Oct. 3 at 1 p.m. against Victoria.

KELOWNA – With fellow ball hawk Hayden Bell recovering in a Calgary hospital, the rest of the Okanagan Sun defensive secondary went to work on Sunday afternoon at the Apple Bowl. Defensive backs Jesse Warawa, Daylon Pommier and Wyatt Smith paid homage to their seriously injured friend and teammate by each returning an interception for a touchdown in a 48-0 win over the visiting Chilliwack Huskers. "He's a very special guy in our hearts, he's a real gamer, and we dedicated this game to him," Pommier said of Bell. "We're hoping he's holding tight and doing well, and we're looking forward to see him wearing orange and brown again. It was nice that the guys could score those touchdowns for him and that we could get the shutout, too." Bell is undergoing rehab this week after being involved in a devastating car accident in his hometown of Calgary on the September long weekend. The 20-year-old suffered collapsed lungs, a broken sternum, brain trauma, and had his spleen removed. After many nervous hours, and several days in intensive care in a drug-induced coma, the Sun are happy to report Bell is on the road to recovery. However, it's unlikely he'll suit up for the B.C. appreciation rate Football Conference club again this season. "He's in a recovery setting now, so that's good news," said Sun head coach Peter McCall.

KATHERINE MORTIMER Morning Star Staff
Melly Oey believes that with just a few lessons, anyone can experience the joy of playing music. Now going into her second year teaching at the Vernon Community Arts Centre, Oey is offering classes for both children and adults who want to learn to play the electric keyboard. “It’s the instrument that you can play as a one-man show,� she said. “Playing keyboard is really fun, especially for people who don’t want to play a musical instrument that is difficult to learn and will take a long time to learn a song. For children, Oey mixes education with fun, teaching them to read music, play by ear and play songs with dynamic rhythms using both hands. “You will enjoy learning right away by playing melodies and chords, and with the electric keyboard, you have everything, especially dynamic accompaniment such as rock and roll, waltz, jazz, Latin and more. We can also choose the sound you’d like to make, such as guitar, trombone, flute and even the piano.� It’s been a long journey for Oey, who began teaching music 22 years ago in her native Indonesia. Born in Middle Java Island, Oey grew up in Metropolitan City, Jakarta, a busy city in Indonesia with more than 13 million people. Descended from a large Chinese family, Oey was happy living in Jakarta until the political situation there made her feel it was not a safe place to raise a child. “I had to choose a better future for my family, even though I had to leave my good job as a Yamaha music teacher.� With her young daughter and husband, Oey arrived in Kelowna in October 2003, living there for six months before moving to Vernon. And after almost seven years of living in Canada, Oey was filled with pride as she took the oath of a new Canadian citizen June 25, 2010 in Revelstoke. With her husband working as a health professional, Oey found invaluable assistance at Vernon and District Immigrant Services Society. “I learned English with really good teachers and everyone at VDISS was so helpful and friendly,� said Oey, who still works with a tutor once a week to continue improving her English. Now working in the bakery department at Save-on Foods, Oey said she enjoys decorating cakes, but music is still her life. “I approached the arts centre last year and appreciate that they have helped me as a new immigrant to share something that I love.� Oey’s love of playing music began in

Melly Oey guides student James Meeks, eight, in a lesson on a Yamaha electric keyboard. Grade 8 when she learned how to play the Electone, an electronic organ produced by Yamaha and popular throughout the world. In Grade 12, a friend asked if Oey could teach his nephew. “This was my first student and it opened the door for me to teach more private students and I began doing some substitute teaching at the Yamaha Music School.�
“I ... appreciate that they have helped me as a new immigrant to share something that I love.� — Melly Oey The extra money helped to pay for her university tuition. After earning an accounting degree in 1985, she got a job as a junior external auditor. “It was an interesting job, but music was still my priority.� While teaching music as an extra-curricular activity at some private schools, Oey continued her study in music and teachers’ training at the Yamaha Music
Foundation in Jakarta. She left her auditor’s job and studied piano and theory with the Royal Music School. In 1994, she was officially certified as a Performance and Fundamental Yamaha teacher. “That was such a good time for me in teaching music. I had many students and Yamaha had many programs for the students to participate in, such as annual festivals and concerts, both nationally and internationally. I think that made my students more confident and to believe in themselves.� Oey’s dream is to one day open her own music school, where she would teach a variety of instruments, including the electric keyboard and Electone. Meanwhile, she welcomes new students to her classes for adults, which run Sept. 20 to Dec. 6 and Sept. 21 to Dec. 7 (Mondays and Tuesdays) and for children ages six to 14, they run Sept. 25 to Nov. 20 (Saturdays). The cost for adult classes is $240 for members, $250 for non-members. For kids it’s $180 for members, $190 for non-members.

The sockeye is running
W
ith the record sockeye salmon run up the Fraser River this year, there is an abundance of sockeye available and at decent prices. This fish is among the smallest of the Pacific salmon (ranging from Cathi Litzenberger 5-15 lbs.), but is packed with nutritional goodness. It’s said to be one of nature’s healthiest and purest foods. Sockeye salmon are very high in omega-3 fatty oils, proteins and calcium as well as many other vitamins and minerals. So now is the season to enjoy fresh sockeye. Our first sockeye recipe today is about as simple as it gets, with only four ingredients, yet it is delicious. The second recipe is for salmon
KITCHEN WIT & WISDOM
cakes. This recipe is flexible and can be made with leftover cooked salmon, fresh salmon or canned salmon. Teriyaki Roasted Salmon 4 lbs. (2 kg) piece of whole sockeye salmon, skin removed 2 tbsp. sesame oil, preferably dark, or use vegetable oil 2 tbsp. teriyaki or soy sauce 2 tbsp. sesame seeds Preheat oven to 425 F (220C). Line a large baking sheet with foil. Lightly brush foil with vegetable oil or coat with cooking spray. Measure salmon at its thickest part to determine roasting time. Salmon should be roasted for 10 minutes per inch of thickness. Rinse salmon under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Place on foil-lined baking sheet. In a small bowl, whisk oil with teriyaki. Brush salmon generously, inside and out with mixture. Spread 1 tbsp. sesame seeds in cavity. Sprinkle remaining seeds overtop. Roast, uncovered, in centre of preheat-
ed oven until a knife inserted in thickest part flakes fish easily, and it is no longer translucent in colour. Use a sharp chef’s knife to cut into serving-sized pieces. Wonderful served with wild rice and colourful sautéed sweet peppers. Refrigerate any leftovers which can be served cold the next day with a sauce of light sour cream stirred with a little Dijon, or better yet, made into fish cakes (recipe following). Melissa’s Sockeye Fish Cakes 2 strips bacon, cooked until crisp and crumbled, save bacon fat 1/4 cup chopped onion 1 egg 1/2 cup mayonnaise 2 tsp. Dijon mustard 1/2 tsp. sugar 1/2 lemon, zested 1-7/8 cups (I use a scant 2) leftover flaked cooked salmon (or use 1 - 14 oz. canned salmon)

Add onions and cook until translucent. Set aside to cool. Mix bacon, onion, egg, mayonnaise, mustard, sugar and lemon zest in a bowl. Add the salmon and potato, mixing gently after each addition. Form mixture into 12 small patties. (Using an ice cream scoop will make uniform sizes.) In shallow dish, combine bread crumbs, Parmesan and pepper to taste. Coat patties in bread mixture. Heat 1/4 cup of the oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Cook salmon cakes in batches until golden, about 3-4 minutes per side. Add more oil as needed. Serve immediately. Delicious!

Fall means time to get out the shredder
T
his is the time of year when we bring in a shredder and all that leftover growth, corn stalks, melon vines, cabbage leaves and stalks are shredded and put into the compost bins for next year’s composted materials. Be sure to add any leaves from hardwood trees such as birch and poplars. The shredder speeds up the breakdown. Almost every gardener in the area is harvesting a good tomato crop. Tomato growers are calling occasionally to complain of blossom rot in the crop. To avoid blossom rot you have to feed the ground area with a good source
of calcium. A month before you plant out tomato plants, add a good handful of bonemeal and some crushed egg shells and a little Epsom salts. Bone meal breaks down very slowly and stays in the soil for a considerable time. The Fred Lyall same area can be used for several seasons and will produce tomatoes with no end rot. In the next few weeks it is time to prepare the bed for new bulb gardens, the ones that will bloom next spring. When you do a little preparation add a good amount of peat moss and a little sand to the area. A couple of years ago, a friend

of mine asked me to check his yard for the chance he could start a nice bulb garden. The soil was very hard claytype soil and not what bulbs like to grow in. He ended up going to raised beds for all his gardening. The material he brought in to fill the raised beds was a mixture of 35 per cent peat moss, 15 per cent clean sand with the balance loam he was able to buy at a local company that sells landscape material. He was very pleased with the results. If you have wellaged, composted material it is a good item to add to any type of flower bed.

Bridge by Phillip Alder It is a common problem at the bridge table: You can win the first trick, but should you take it or duck it? There are various guidelines, but try to analyze each case on its own. In today’s deal, you are in four spades. West leads the diamond king. What would be your plan? North was correct to make a simple, not a jump, overcall because you would need little to make three no-trump a viable contract: acedoubleton of clubs and a couple of other goodies. Your two-spade advance was forcing for one round by partnership agreement. And three diamonds, a
new suit at the three-level, was also forcing. You should win the first trick, unblock the club ace, and play a low trump toward dummy’s queen. How does West defend? If he ducks, you win with the queen and discard a diamond on the club king. Yes, it’s lucky West has ace-doubleton of spades, but if he had acethird, you would have had no chance. If West wins the third trick and continues with top diamonds, you trump the third round in the dummy, ruff a club in your hand, draw trumps, and concede a heart, your diamond nine being high. What happens if you duck the first trick? West
should then cash the spade ace and play another spade (which would have killed the contract if he had done it at the first two tricks). You may draw trumps, unblock the club ace, and try to get to dummy with a heart, but West can stop you: He ducks if you lead the king, or wins if you play your low card.

Adams River sockeye run continues to fluctuate TIM PETRUK
Black Press
Despite the record size of the Adams River sockeye salmon run this year, the numbers of fish making the annual journey from the Strait of Georgia through Kamloops to the Shuswap each year will continue to fluctuate for the foreseeable future. That was the message from
the leading expert on salmon in B.C. this past week as he spoke at Thompson Rivers University. “I think the variation you’re seeing is likely to continue,” said Dr. Brian Riddell, president and CEO of the Pacific Salmon Foundation. “This is not marking a return to the heyday of fisheries.” Riddell’s talk was the first
in TRU’s Science Seminar Series, which is slated to run throughout the school year. Speaking in front of about 100 people in the Clocktower Theatre on Thursday, Riddell called 2010’s Adams River return — estimated to bring as many as 10 million sockeyes to the Shuswap — “an historic year.” The numbers are even
more staggering when compared to the amount of fish in the Adams River last fall. “At the same time last year, you basically had the all-time worst return,” he said, estimating a total of 34.5 million sockeyes for the entire Fraser River return. “It’s at least 10 million more than what we’ve seen before.” According to the cycle of
sockeye returns — which runs in four-year segments — next year should see a modest return, followed by two years of low numbers. Riddell said the sockeye’s resilience — especially in the Adams River — is impressive, given what the run has endured in the last century. In 1912, the former Adams Lake Lumber Company built
an eight-kilometre log flume through the river, blocking much of the sockeyes’ run. Then, in 1913, a rock slide caused by workers building the Canadian National Railway blocked much of the Fraser River at Hell’s Gate. “To go through 100 years of abuse and come back like this is really quite spectacular,” Riddell said.

ROY LEWIS Former long time Armstrong resident, Roy Eugene Lewis passed away on Sunday September 12, 2010 at the Gateby Care Residence in Vernon, after a 13 year battle with Alzheimer’s disease and Leukemia at 78 years of age. Roy is survived by his loving wife of 48 years Marie of Vernon; his 5 children Gordon and Kelly of Campbell River, Darryl and Jenna of Tri Cities WA, Shelley and Gregory Peck of Surrey, Leanne in Vancouver, Michelle and Gordon Crandlemire of Gibsons; his 6 grandchildren Allysa, Andrew, Dakota, Chanda, Josee and Reid; his brother Harold and Elaine of Chase; his twin sister Ruby and Roy Gabrielson of Ladysmith; his sister Irene and Wes White of Kaleden; his sisters-in-law Joan Lewis of Lumby and Ethel Lewis of Cochrane; and many nieces and nephews and extended family. Roy was predeceased by his parents Charles and Grace Lewis, his brothers Jim, Ray, Joe, Don, Alfred, Ernie and sisters Caroline, Thelma, and Lila. Roy was born in Entwistle, Alberta in 1932. When he was 5 years old the family moved to Langley to farm. After graduation from high school, Roy did a 5 year apprenticeship training at Vancouver Vocational School. He was a painter and decorator for more than 40 years. In the early years he was a partner in Lewis & Monahan Painting of Langley. He was a painting foreman for many years mainly for Dominion Construction, then later Boshard Painting and traveled the Province looking after many jobs. He was an active member on the executive of the Painters and Allied Trades Union for many years. Roy was the foreman in charge of painting and decorating of the original Orchard Park Shopping Centre in Kelowna, the Crown Zellerbach Mill in Armstrong, and the Coop Shopping Centre in Salmon Arm. In 1962, Roy married Marie Marsh of Langley. They lived most of the first year in Fort St. John, where Roy was painting the Catholic Schools there. In the same year they purchased Sunshine Valley Ranch, a 500 acre ranch in Lumby along with Ernie and Ethel Lewis. They operated a dairy, raised hogs and beef cattle. Roy and Ernie Lewis operated Lewis Brothers Logging for a number of years in the Lumby area. The ranch was sold in the spring of 1971. Roy, Marie and family moved to Winfield for 2 years. In 1973 they purchased a 40 acre hay farm at Larkin in Spallumcheen, where they spent the next 37 years. In 1979 Roy went to work as a general tradesman foreman for BC Hydro based out of Vernon for the next 18 years. He worked on the Peace River Dam, Revelstoke Dam, Kootenay Dam and the dams in the Lillooet area. In 1997, Roy was forced to retire from Hydro when the beginnings of Alzheimer’s Disease became apparent. Roy was always a farmer at heart, even though he continued to work in the construction trade until retirement. The highlight of the year was always haying time when Roy and Duane Popowich or Steve Woronchak hayed the “front and back forty” together. He was also an avid gardener and whenever he was home, he would be out in the garden hoeing or picking vegetables and fruit. Roy loved nature and the country life! In July of 2006, Roy was admitted to the Gateby Intermediate Care Home in Vernon, where he resided until his passing. The care he received from our “Gateby Family” was exemplary! Our family is deeply indebted to the Nursing, Care Aide, Kitchen and Housekeeping staff at Gateby Two South for all their compassionate care. Their dedication, care, interest and friendship will never be forgotten! Funeral Service for Roy will take place on Saturday September 18, 2010 at 11:00 a.m. at the Vernon Recreation Complex, 3310 37 Ave. Vernon BC. Donations would be appreciated in memory of Roy to Interior Health: Gateby Intermediate Care Residence (3000 Gateby Place, Vernon BC V1T 8V8). Envelopes available at the service. Expressions of sympathy may be forwarded to the family via email armstrong@ pafs.net. Arrangements entrusted to PERSONAL ALTERNATIVE FUNERAL SERVICES Armstrong 250-546-7237 & Vernon 250-558-0866

Lawrence Robert (“Robin”) Jackson Lawrence Robert (“Robin”) Jackson died at home in Deep Creek on September 4th, 2010, ten months after he was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer. He was 60 years old. Robin was born at St.-Jean, Quebec. He grew up in a busy household with two brothers, a sister, and a parade of pets. These included his dog Mickey, many times Fastest Eater champion at the local fall fair, and a tiny skunk whom Robin rescued and dubbed “Pepe,” who lived to a ripe old age. Robin was an exceptional student and skipped two grades, resulting in his being the shortest person in his high school for three years. He joined the local militia unit and was delighted to earn his license to drive a “deuce” at the age of 15. Driving cars came later, including a Mini woodie station wagon, and a red Miata. Robin’s father Larry was a mechanic who worked for Stelco in Hamilton. Robin too spent summers at Stelco during university, working his way up from sweeper to “pickle line hooker”. He never lost his affinity and respect for folks who punch a timeclock or make their living with their hands. Robin came west when he was offered a scholarship to the military university at Royal Roads, Victoria. He tried it for a semester, but chose civilian life. He plunged into the vibrant social scene of the “Summer of Love” generation and never looked back. He saw as many concerts and films as possible – anyone who contested “Did you see (name a band) live?” with Robin was likely to lose. Robin graduated from McMaster University with a B.A. (Hons) in Economics in 1972. After an ambitious trip to the South Pacific, New Zealand and Australia that ended when the money ran out, he found work with various employers in Victoria and later Ottawa, including the National Energy Board. In 1975 he married Bonnie Dale Ehlers, who became an elementary school teacher and shared the adventures of Robin’s life for the next 23 years. In 1977 they spent seven months traveling in Europe, Turkey, Iran, Afghanistan, India, Sri Lanka and Greece. When they returned, Robin entered law school at UBC in Vancouver. Robin graduated with his LL.B. in 1980, and chose to article in the Interior. He started with Alan Perry and Cindy Derkaz, and later Gary Brooke and Peter Robertson, all of whom became lifelong friends. He was called to the Bar and quickly became a partner in the firm that became Brooke Jackson Downs. Robin had to teach himself many areas of litigation, and so he learned as he went. He was never afraid to tackle a complex case or an intimidating opponent. His work ethic was stellar, and he fought intelligently and negotiated fairly. Instead of specializing, Robin took on criminal, family and general litigation cases about almost everything: houseboats, contracts, houses, disputed wills, common-law property division, contaminated sites, investment fraud, and livestock. He had an insatiable curiosity, and he learned something from every case. He took particular delight in outworking and winning applications against expensive counsel who parachuted in from Vancouver and underestimated him as “just a country lawyer”. Robin qualified as a family and general mediator in 2003, and kept his mediation skills sharp even after his retirement. He served with the pro bono clinic in Salmon Arm, and remained a member of the West Coast Environmental Law group. Robin and Bonnie traveled to Costa Rica, Ecuador and the Galapagos Islands in 1982, a rich and fragile ecosystem that captivated him. He treasured memories of swimming with seals off the Galapagos, and meeting ancient tortoises. Robin and Bonnie later took an entire year
to travel throughout Africa, finishing in Europe, and returned home in the midst of the Fly to Ida fire in 1998. Robin quickly rejoined the Ranchero Deep Creek Fire Department, where he had served since 1987, despite the fact that his own house was threatened by airborne embers from Mt. Ida. Robin was a dedicated environmentalist who believed that real change started with personal action and local projects. He was a life member and past director of SEAS starting in the 1980’s. He served on the CSRD OCP advisory group for Ranchero-Deep Creek from 2005-2009. He also found time for outings with the Shuswap Mountaineering Club from 1999 onward, numerous canoe and hiking trips, and the occasional hot springs tour. Robin and Bonnie divorced, but remained friends. He married fellow lawyer Jan Crerar in 2002. They traveled to Cuba in 2003, and throughout BC and Alberta yearly. Robin worked steadily towards his retirement day which was December 31, 2006. Freed from law practice, Robin took lengthy journeys in the deserts of the USA in 2008, and Mexico/Copper Canyon/Baja in early 2009. He was planning a two-month expedition to Brazil that next winter, forestalled by a seizure that signaled the onset of terminal anaplastic astrocytoma. Robin elected to fight the disease, which was checked by radiation treatments, but resumed its attack after proving resistant to chemotherapy. Throughout, he was comforted and cheered by innumerable visits from friends and family, and flooded with food, flowers, letters, cards and gifts from near and far. Not a day went by without a tangible offering to Robin’s household, health or morale. Robin was humbled and truly overwhelmed by the outpouring of love and affection from his family and friends. The Shuswap friends are literally too numerous to mention here, but to all of you: thank-you. Extraordinarily, Robin’s former wife Bonnie Jackson stepped forward during the initial crisis, and became the staunchest ally he and Jan could ever have imagined. Bonnie put her own life on hold, never stopped asking “What can I do to help?”, and did her utmost to the very end of his journey. Bonnie chauffeured Robin to and from Kelowna, ransacked Askews for exotic fruit, read him his Economist magazines, cooked delicious and healthy recipes, and made sure he always had flowers even if she had to strip her own rose garden. Bonnie’s selfless devotion and patience inspired Robin’s other caregivers to give him their best. Robin also leaves behind him his loving parents, Larry and Marjorie Jackson of Innisfail AB, brothers William (Kathy Sereda) of Bella Bella BC, and Ken of Ladysmith BC, sister Nancy (Ray Jackle) of Bowden AB, many beloved nieces and nephews, and extended family in Ontario and the Maritimes. Robin’s family and Jan would like to sincerely thank Dr. R. Mosewich, neurologist; Dr. Chevalier, neurosurgeon; the BC Cancer Agency (Interior); Rotary Lodge in Kelowna; Dr. James Levins GP; Dr. Chris Main and nurse Cheryl Bawtree, chemo; the nurses and aides of Community Care; Lawrence and staff at Remedys; the ER doctors and nurses of SLGH; and the BC Ambulance crews who answered the 911 calls. Robin specifically directed that there be no funeral or memorial service. However, anyone wishing to honour Robin’s memory is invited to make a contribution in his name to the Shuswap Community Foundation, to support local environmental projects. Online condolence can be sent through Robin’s obituary at www.bowersfuneralservice.com
