Highway crash claims a life Morning Star Staff

Highway traffic was rerouted for four hours around a fatal accident south of Vernon Wednesday. Vernon-North Okanagan RCMP said a southbound Subaru appeared to veer left into oncoming traffic on Highway 97 near the south end of Kalamalka Lakeview Drive at around 2:30 p.m. and struck a northbound pick-up truck head-on. “The driver of the Subaru, a man from the Lake Country area, died at the scene,” said RCMP spokesperson Gord Molendyk. Two men in the truck were airlifted to Kelowna General Hospital. Their injuries, however, are said to be serious but non-lifethreatening. Traffic was detoured around the scene via Commonage and Bailey Roads until the highway reopened at 6:15 p.m. Police and the coroners service continue to investigate the accident. No names have been released.

A 54-year-old tradition in Vernon is in jeopardy. The Queen Silver Star Excellence Program could be cancelled if additional interest isn’t gained. “At this time we do not have enough candidates to run the program for another year and are extending the package deadline one more time,” said Kelsey von Holst, Queen Silver Star committee member and former royalty. The deadline for candidate packages was June 4, but is now being extended to Thursday, June 12. “We really don’t want to see a program that has been in our community for 54 years end now.” Von Holst retired her Queen Silver Star XLIX crown in 2010 and having experienced the program she can’t say enough about it. “I know how much I loved the program and grew from it and want that for other young girls.” During its 54-years, the program has helped an immeasurable number of young girls grow into young women. And it is not the beauty pageant it once was. “Through the program you learn from a variety of different classes, experience many new opportunities and gain everlasting friendships,” said von Holst, who has put the skills she learned to use specifically this year. But without more candidates coming forward, the committee is concerned those opportunities will be lost for local youth. Candidate applications are available at the Vernon Winter Carnival Office and in the schools. Completed packages can be dropped off at the Winter Carnival Office, either in the office or mail box (due to the situation, reference letters can be sent in later). Anyone with questions can contact Coleen Noel, chair of the Queen Silver Star Excellence Program at cbpnoel@ yahoo.ca.

Storm leaves a path of destruction Jennifer Smith Morning Star Staff

Cleanup continues from the havoc wreaked by Tuesday’s storm. While the flooded streets around town have since dried up, restoration is needed for several local buildings. “Crazy, crazy storm,” said Sandi Dixon, Okanagan Science Centre executive director. While a significant portion of Polson Park was under water Tuesday, the lower level classroom at the science centre was also flooded. “There was up to four inches of water in some areas, along with mud and perhaps some sewage back-up,” said tammy Post Photo Dixon. Eight-year-old Tyson Post “This is the didn’t let a little flood sixth major water get him down as he flood I have blew up his inner tube and experienced went for a float down 34A here.” S e v e r a l Street. basements around town were also flooded, including the Vernon fire department’s. Water also overflowed the loading dock at Butcher Boys and came right down the grocery store aisles. But thanks to some helping hands, who were seen bucketing

tunity to have a little fun in their frontyard floods. “Myself and neighbours got out with our kids blew up some beach toys and they had a blast playing in the flooded streets like it was a beach,” said Tammy Post, after splashing around in the pool that was once 34A Street and 24th Avenue. “We were up to our knees in water enjoying every minute of it. “Despite rain and flooding, these kids had the time of their life.”

According to Vernon officials, much of the flooding was due to the intense downpour which local drainage systems simply couldn’t keep up with. “Storm water sewer systems drained properly during the storm although the high volume of water exceeded the sewer capacity in many areas of the city, including the downtown core,” said Tanya Laing Gahr, city communications and grants coordinator.

Hail destroys local apple crops richard rolke Morning Star Staff

Greater Vernon orchardists are counting their losses after a devastating storm. Pea-sized hail hammered parts of the BX, Coldstream and Bella Vista Tuesday, causing significant damage for apples and other fruit varieties. “It looks pretty much like a wipe-out for the apple crop,” said Dave Dobernigg, who has a farm on East Vernon Road. “It looked like a nice crop out there and to see it disappear, is disappointing.” Also in the BX, Jeet Dukhia’s orchard was

hit. “It was coming like bullets,” said Dukhia, adding that the extent of the damage will be known in a couple of days. “Apples are so sensitive to the weather — hail or frost. I was hoping to have a nice crop this year.” There was also hail at Sid Sidhu’s orchard in the Bella Vista area. “We will be waiting and watching to see what happens,” said Sidhu of possible damage. “With more inclement weather expected, it’s always a nervous time of the year.” Dobernigg sustained a total hail loss in

2009. “The weather seems to be more unpredictable, at least in the BX,” he said. Tuesday’s storm will mean tighter times for the family budget. “We’d be dead in the water without insurance. it’s a life-saver,” said Dobernigg, adding, though, that insurance only covered 60 to 70 per cent of the 2009 crop value. He must now still protect his crop from disease and insects even though the apples can’t be sold commercially. Some of the fruit may eventually go to a cidery his family has started. “It gives us some options,” said Dobernigg.

Plane struck by lightning

AN OFFER THAT WILL GIVE YOUR WALLET A LITTLE SUMMER VACATION.

JENNIFER SMITH Morning Star Staff

Passengers aboard Tuesday evening’s flight from Calgary to Kelowna possibly didn’t even know it, but their plane was struck by lightning. The WestJet flight was making its descent, likely over Vernon, when a bolt of lightning from Tuesday evening’s storm collided with the plane. “The passengers may not have even been aware it was hit by lightning,” said Jenelle Hynes, Kelowna International Airport (YLW) media relations manager. The pilot would have felt or heard the bang, and called it in, but no one was injured, or even disturbed by the incident. “The aircraft landed safely.” Some damage was identified and the plane was taken in for a full mechanical inspection and its scheduled outbound flight to Edmonton was cancelled. Since the flight path generally has aircraft making a descent over Vernon, it’s likely that’s where the lightning strike took place. “That’s usually the approach,” said Hynes. While it’s not an unheard of incident, planes do get struck by lightning from time to time. “It’s not common,” said Hynes. But aircraft are designed to go up against anything Mother Nature might throw their way, including lightning. “These aircrafts are built to withstand all weather conditions.”

The Regional District of North Okanagan wants a voice. During recent elections, RDNO was shut out of an executive seat at the Southern Interior Local Government Association, which represents municipalities and regional districts. “We have no way of accessing what is happening at SILGA,” said Rick Fairbairn, RDNO vice-chairperson. The Thompson-Nicola Regional District holds five of the seats while the Regional District of Central Okanagan has two and three other districts have one each. RDNO wants SILGA to ensure each regional district has at least one representative on the executive.

Grade 10 students Sophie Sullivan (left) and Jamie Kerr join the province-wide student walkout in front of W.L. Seaton Secondary School Wednesday morning am today,” said Sullivan. “So we are trying to get our point across.” The B.C.-wide walkout was spearheaded by students in the Lower Mainland in response to the dispute between the B.C. Teachers’ Federation and the provincial government. This week marked the second of rotating strikes by teachers throughout the province. “We support our teachers, and we’ve been here every day they have been on strike but we have been caught in the middle — we are the next generation,” said

she also feels the government is not supporting teachers. “They enjoy the teachers being on strike because they don’t have to pay them,” she said. Grade 9 student Tyson Reschke also walked out to show his support for teachers. “But we don’t care who wins, we just want it to be over,” he said. “It’s all about money, the way the government is handling it isn’t the best way they could. The strike has been going on for a long time but I think the teachers’ strikes could have an effect on how the

Kerr. “We don’t know if we’ll even be able to do our provincial exams because they might not have teachers available to mark them.” Sullivan said the class size and composition issue is one that concerns her. When she signed up for a French class, there were only 15 to 20 students registered. “You need to have 25 kids, so the class was cancelled and I had to take it online,” she said. “We want to be an educated society, but this is affecting students.” While Sullivan is hopeful for a resolution,

government handles things.” As Seaton principal Jackie Kersey kept an eye on students, she said neither the school or the district supports students leaving class. “There are two concerns with this type of action: one is student safety and the other is that they are missing classes,” she said. “This is a crucial time for students and you’ll notice there are no Grade 12s out here because they don’t want to miss classes.” Kersey and viceprincipal Melissa Yurkowski hosted a lunch-hour meeting Thursday in the school library, to give students the opportunity to learn more about the current labour dispute. “We do appreciate that students need to have a voice, but they do have that opportunity to come to a student voice meeting to learn about labour disputes and to look at constructive ways of doing things,” said Kersey. “We hope that students who have a sincere interest in bringing attention to how this labour dispute is affecting students will join us.”

A multi-million-dollar project is expected to help alleviate some of the congestion at Vernon Jubilee Hospital. Construction has started on turning the two top floors in the Polson tower into inpatient units. “It’s a real milestone for us,” said Nancy Serwo, VJH administrator, during a ceremony Wednesday. The $29.6 million project will include 60 beds — 14 of which will be new while the remainder will be relocated from existing parts of the hospital. The funds were announced two years ago, but a planning process and selecting a contractor meant construction didn’t begin until now. “In the next couple of weeks, there will be dust flying,” said Eric Foster, VernonMonashee MLA. Construction should be done by late 2015, with patients moved into the units by early 2016. The funding is coming from the provincial government, the North Okanagan-

The majority of the beds will be in private rooms. “It will mean patients can stay away from potential infections and get out of the hospital sooner,” said Rhona Martin, NOCSRHD chairperson. The VJH Foundation is raising $2.5 million to equip the two floors and about

$1.4 million has been raised to date. “Thank you to our generous community for all of its efforts so far,” said Elise Allan, VJHF president. Over the next two years, the Interior Health Authority will determine how to use the existing space vacated when beds move to the tower. “It gives us more flexibility,” said Serwo, adding that some of the space could be used for additional beds.

Eight-month checkup

o the other day, I’m in my Hyundai driving along 27th Street in Vernon when the classic Tom Cochrane and Red Rider song Lunatic Fringe comes on the radio. In said song, there is the use of sirens. I don’t know why, I didn’t write the song. When I hear the sirens, I immediately slow my car down on what is usually a busy thoroughfare and look to pull over and wait for the emergency vehicle to go by. I look in my mirrors. There is no emergency vehicle (or, thankfully, any other vehicle) to go by. Sigh. Law-abiding citizen? Perhaps. Continuation of life after 50? Probably. You (hopefully) remember back in Roger Knox October 2013, I wrote on the Year of Turning 50. I reflected about my career, my relationships, happy to have one and not the other, have to have a home, proud father of a great son. Discovered a fabulous beverage called Shock Top Belgian White draught beer. Celebrated the milestone night with some dear friends, friends who I helped ring in their 50th birthdays. Well, how about an eight-month checkup? In what is now the Year of Being 50, the highlights include watching my beloved Boston Red Sox win the World Series on my son’s 14th birthday; watching my son’s Vernon Secondary School junior football team reach the provincial semifinals; watching my boy learn a new sport, rugby, a sport dad played but dad had nowhere near the wheels the kid does. My beloved Montreal Canadiens, picked by many so-called hockey experts to miss the NHL playoffs, not only made the post-season, but they were the only Canadian-based team to do so, and came within two wins of reaching the Stanley Cup final. There are, however, lowlights like the one at the start of this column that have me concerned.

AT RANDOM

Before turning 50, never before had I lost my own vehicle in a parking lot. I had been with a friend in Vancouver who forgot where he parked his car in a downtown parkade (and, no, I didn’t bother to look where he parked, either), and we spent a considerable amount of time looking for the car. In December, in Kelowna, I came out of the Orchard Park mall absolutely certain I knew where my Hyundai was. I did not know. I was in the right vicinity, but I was looking a few rows over from where I actually found a space on a Saturday 11 days before Christmas. Took me about 10 minutes to find the bloody thing. If you know the layout of the palatial Morning Star office, you know the editorial department is segregated, er, located upstairs on the second floor. That means we have to wander downstairs for the important daily atwork tasks like meeting the public, annoying the sales department or going to the washroom. In the Year of Being 50, I have, on numerous occasions, waddled down the 14 stairs, opened the door to the front office and immediately forgot why I came downstairs in the first place. I have even made – shocking as this may seem – some gaffes in my writing. Gaffes I shouldn’t be making at 50 and after 30 years as a broadcast/print journalist. It all has me wondering about what’s to come. Freedom 55 would be nice but Freedom 75 is a more likely number. The Year of Being 50 now includes working under the guidance of personal trainers Jes Hatt and, as I like to call him, the long-lost Beach Boy, Barry Wilson (three of the Beach Boys group included Dennis, Carl and Barry Wilson. Long-Lost Beach Boy, get it??), and my doctor to improve my health. The doc says I’m OK, though I could be better. He’s happy to hear I’m working with Jes and Barry. So, the Year of Being 50, which culminates in 132 shopping days on my 51st birthday, marches on. I’m above ground, and relatively happy and healthy. Oh and one other great piece of news in the Year of Being 50? Shock Top Belgian White now comes in bottles.

The cause of Wednesday’s tragic motor vehicle accident at Highway 97 and Birnie Road is not known. But what can’t be disputed is the need for the Ministry of Transportation to take immediate action to improve safety on an increasingly busy and dangerous stretch of highway. Beyond the fatality Wednesday, how many near-misses have there been, particularly as vehicles try to enter back on to the highway from Birnie Road after leaving the Greater Vernon landfill. First off, the ministry needs to look at installing concrete barriers along the entire stretch of highway between Coldstream and Lake Country. In those places where the barriers already exist, northbound and southbound vehicles are separated and the possibility of a motorist veering into the oncoming lane is prevented. Yes, there may be a cost involved to installing all of those dividers, but what is the price of a human life? On top of this, the provincial government needs to get serious about the hazard at the Birnie Road intersection when local residents are trying to get back home after being at the landfill. Last year, the Regional District of North Okanagan, which operates the landfill, suggested constructing a one-way bridge from Birnie Road northbound to Highway 97 crossing the highway. It would then allow vehicles to yield on to the highway safely. And the best part is RDNO calls for part of the cost of constructing the bridge to come from landfill tipping fees, meaning the provincial government wouldn’t be on the complete hook. More residents are increasingly travelling to Kelowna for work or university, or heading to the airport for a trip. Tourists make their way to the North Okanagan on the route along Kalamalka Lake. Highway 97 is a critical link economically and socially and motorists need some assurances that their safety is paramount. It’s time for the ministry to get off the fence.

Blue Boxes I just want to say I agree with Pat Black’s column May 4 regarding the blue boxes and seniors. I live in an over-55 complex and know that half of our residents fit in the disabled category and will find it almost impossible to get these boxes to the curb. One would be bad enough but to take two of them requires two trips as they are heavy and awkward. But with this new program, both must be put out. Many people will do just what she said...put more into their garbage, rather than less. The blue bag system was much better for these people. I doubt the powers-that-be will reconsider. After all, who are we but just old people. Our strata had our semi-annual meeting and a large part was discussing these boxes and how inconvenient they are going to be. Storage is another issue. Small units do not have the room whereas the blue bags took up a very small part of one shelf.

Beware of the rhetoric

he key issues identified in the current dispute involving the B.C. Teachers Federation and the B.C. Public Schools Employers Association centre on wage benefits and working conditions. Specifically, on behalf of its members, the BCTF is requesting that BCPSEA, through the collective bargaining process, approve a deal for a wage increase and improved ratios for classroom size and composition. If you have been paying attention to the recent media coverage of this ongoing dispute, you will have read and heard the BCTF president, Jim Iker and various leaders of local teacher associations frequently reference that they are engaged, in part, in job action and now strike action because they are advocating for better learning conditions for students.

The BCTF mission statement reads as follows: “The BCTF is a union of professionals that represents and advocates for the social, professional, and economic goals of teachers and promotes a quality pluralistic

by an elite few that largely control what we are exposed to. The news and information is not necessarily fact based but rather dictated by the agendas of this elite group. Our governments are corporate/lobby-driven. Follow the money and insider deals and see why smart meters, the new recycling program, non-labelling of GMO foods, pro pipeline propaganda and a host of other issues infiltrates the news. Currently, more than 1,500 newspapers,1,000 magazines, 9,000 radio stations, 1,500 TV stations, and 2,400 publishers are owned by six corporations that are united in their agendas to give us a version of reality that fits their goals. There are agendas of a global nature that are not in our best interests or serve our highest good. In order to create the world we really want, our innocence must now transform into discernment of agendas, the real story behind the information we are given.

Chris madsen mCHAppy dAy On behalf of all of us at McDonald's, I want to personally thank this community for helping to make the 21st McHappy Day such an outstanding success. On May 7, McDonald's restaurants across the country joined together with our employees, our customers, our supplies and other special guests to raise money to help families and their sick children across Canada. The incredible generosity of our customers, the enthusiasm of our employees and the support of our special guest volunteers helped our restaurant support the activities of the North Okanagan Neurological Association. Their efforts directly impact the lives of children in need in this community every year and we're so proud to be able to provide them with some assistance. We hope you are as delighted as we are to be part of this success. We look forward to continuing this special tradition in the years

ahead.

What is clear is that the mandate of the BCTF and its leadership is to advocate for its members (teachers). In my opinion, it is misleading for Mr. Iker and other BCTF leadership members to suggest in any way that their goal in the current dispute is to represent the students in the public school system by bargaining for better learning conditions on their behalf. In essence, what the BCTF is doing by addressing class size and composition issues is bargaining for better working conditions for teachers. Teachers in general are committed to and concerned about quality learning conditions for students, but the reality is that the political and professional mandate of their union is to represent them and advocate on their behalf, not students.

pArkinG tiCket On the day of my parking meter ticket, I made several stops in downtown Vernon (five in total) to buy merchandise and conduct business. I visited my accountant, my bank and four retail stores, each time diligently plugging the parking meters (closed to $6 in total). I returned to my car after my last visit in the city centre to find a ticket on my window placed just three minutes after the parking meter expired. This very same thing happened to me on four occasions. Wow, this guy's good. He's fast on the draw. The bottom line is this treatment of Vernon residents doing business downtown may be good for city revenue but it certainly does not help out the business owners. Is anybody at city hall listening? todd perusini repel felines I’d like to thank Jocelyne Sewell for her advice on keeping cats out of gardens and yards. However,

she failed to mention the single most effective strategy. If cat owners kept their cats inside the house or confined to their own yards we wouldn’t need to take measures to keep them out of ours. l. Conrad

A fun night at the lake for a Vernon family and others Monday was shattered by some unruly dirtbike enthusiasts. Rick August, newly arrived in Vernon two months ago from Vancouver Island, took his fouryear-old daughter and two-year-old son to Kin Beach on Okanagan Lake. As they were getting ready to leave from their spot on the beach in front of the intersection of Tronson Road and Lakeshore Road, at about 6:30 p.m., August heard the loud sound of motor bikes coming from the west. “Three bikes went down Kin Beach roaring in at approximately 70 km/hour from beyond the playground,” said August. “At the east end of the beach, they made a 180 degree turn. The green and yellow bikes went up onto the roadway, whereas the blue bike came back down the beach. “At that point people threw items at the rider attempting to get him to stop. My children and a lot of others were on the beach.” August said one of the bikes missed his daughter by inches.

“She was lying on a blanket on beach and the (bike’s) track went right along edge of the blanket where she was,” said August. “I’m still incredulous that no one was injured, or worse.” August called police but left before officers arrived as his kids were “cold and scared.” Vernon RCMP spokesperson Gord Molendyk confirmed Tuesday that an officer investigated and spoke to several people who complained about the bikes at the beach. However, the dirtbikers and bikes could not be located. They were last seen heading on Bella Vista Road. It’s believed none of the bikes were insured. “It’s a scary incident, absolutely,” said Molendyk. “It’s not a place where individuals enjoying the beach late in the afternoon and motorcycles should be in close contact with each other.” The three bikes are described as a blue YZF 250; a green Kawasaki KXF; and a yellow Suzuki 250RM with the rider wearing white and blue shift gear. All the bikes appear to be newer than 2007. Anybody with any information on this incident is asked to call the Vernon RCMP at 250-545-7171, or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

Power to the residence had to be disconnected because of electrical safety concerns. Both suspects have been released on a promise to appear in court July 31.

In October, 2012 the RCMP office in Armstrong started an investigation into a report of a possible grow operation in the 3300 block of Hope Drive. Rural officers of the Vernon-North Okanagan detachment, with the assistance of police service dog teams, and B.C.

Morning Star Staff

Kalamalka Rotary has carved out a lasting legacy while extending a favourite local trail. It was over three years ago that Ken Beall started planning a Kal Rotary trail building project. And on Saturday, all of the hard work and sweat will pay off as Nels’ Leap Trail officially opens. The community is invited to go for a hike at the opening, which gets underway at 10 a.m. at the trail head (next to Venture Training - at the top of 43rd Avenue and Alexis Park Drive). Those going for a hike are asked to park at Kin Race Track. The trail connects Alexis Park Drive to the Turtle Mountain trail, creating a loop for hikers. Beall points out: “The trail is a hiking trail, it’s not a walking trail, and bikes would destroy it.” It also marks the historic spot where Nels Nelson, internationally renowned ski jumper, took his leap in 1929. While the trail itself only took three hours for a crew of about 25 to dig out, the mapping and approvals are what took time. “We had to get everyone from Ottawa out to scan the trails for UXOs (unexploded ordinances),” said Beall.

One politician warns that landfills may become full of items previously recycled. Director Mike Macnabb told his Regional District of North Okanagan colleagues Wednesday that he has heard numerous public complaints about the new recycling model mandated by the provincial government. “People are getting so frustrated. They say they can’t figure it out and they’re putting the items into the landfill,” he said. “A lot of plastic film and bags are not being accepted by MutliMaterial B.C. and it has to go somewhere and it’s going into the landfill.” Under the MMBC program, plastic wrap and bags cannot be placed into the curbside bins used for paper, tin cans and plastic con-

Efforts continue to increase parole ineligibility for those in prison for murder or sexual assault. Okanagan-Shuswap MP Colin Mayes opened debate at second reading on his private member’s bill to amend the Criminal Code. “This bill seeks to extend the parole eligibility period for those convicted of the abduction, heinous acts of sexual assault and murder of an individual from the current 25 years, up to a maximum of 40 years,” he said. “Parole hearings equate to emotional torture for the victims’ families. My bill will spare the families of victims from having to attend unnecessary parole hearings every two years after the offender’s 25 year sentence expires. This would save families up to eight unnecessary parole hearings.” Mayes says he wants to protect families from having to relive what happened to their loved ones. “It may take them up to 25 years to heal and then, all of a sudden, their wounds are re-opened once more when they are advised that a parole hearing is being scheduled,” he said. “To hear the painful details of what happened yet again, in my view, is unacceptable. Mayes hopes the bill will receive support from all political parties represented in Parliament.

High price tag scuttles road improvement roger knox Morning Star Staff

Higher than expected costs on a proposed road project has Spallumcheen going back to plan A.

and Hallam roads to include improving sight distance. After some more in-depth research, Forslund told council Monday the costs to

reclamation and paving for that stretch of Salmon River Road. Forslund is also investigating the possibility of putting up increased signage to alert motorists about the visibility program, and is looking at grant options to help with the costs. According to RCMP statistics, there have been six accidents – none of a serious nature – on Salmon River Road between Hallam and Dodds roads since 2007. There have been

four, in February, June, July and December, at the Dodds intersection, and two in March and August at Crawford Road, between Dodds and Hallam. Work on the project is expected to start soon and be completed before the end of summer. The township also agreed to carry on with the original plan of base reclamation and paving on Back Enderby Road from Stepney Road South for one kilometre.

WANTED

In the frigid pre-dawn hours, in a distressed Midwestern city, hundreds of desperate unemployed folks are lined up for a spot at a job fair. Without warning, a lone driver plows through the crowd in a stolen Mercedes, running over the innocent, backing up, and charging again. Eight people are killed; fifteen are wounded. The killer escapes.

FADED WOOD SIDING

In another part of town, months later, a retired cop named Bill Hodges is still haunted by the unsolved crime. When he gets a crazed letter from someone who self-identifies as the “perk” and threatens an even more diabolical attack.

Spall playground encouraged roger knox Morning Star Staff

Quinn Thiessen thinks his Spallumcheen neighbourhood should have a playground. The Grade 5 resident of Stepping Stones wrote to township council and asked if it would consider developing a playground in his subdivision. “When you were little, didn’t you love hanging out with

your friends in the playground?” wrote Thiessen. “Remember the fun of climbing on the monkey bars, racing to the swing or beating your friend down the slide? Well the kids in my neighbourhood and I are missing out on that.” Thiessen said he finds it difficult to meet new friends in his neighbourhood because

most of the kids are in their backyards. He added the kids don’t know each other from school as all of the kids go to different schools. “Kids are not spending enough time outside,” said Thiessen. “They are, myself included, playing video games and watching TV. Kids aren’t interacting with each other or making new friends.” Thiessen said he counted “about 90 properties in his subdivision.” “It is my opinion that is enough for a small playground,” he wrote. While sympathetic to Thiessen’s plight, council said there’s nothing it can do with the request as it has no land in the subdivision. “The township does not currently own any land in the Stepping Stones subdivision to develop a park,” said Mayor Janice Brown.

Nominations sought for top citizen Armstrong Spallumcheen winner announced June 17 Morning Star Staff

Nominations are now being taken for Armstrong-Spallumcheen’s Citizen of the Year. The nominee should be a person who gives more than they take; who is always willing to help; who goes out of their way to make a positive contribution to the life of the local community. Or perhaps it’s a person who faces life’s challenges in a positive or inspirational way with no complaints and without recognition. This community award was introduced in 1975 by the Armstrong Spallumcheen Chamber of Commerce to recognize selfless service to the community. Past winners have earned the Citizen of the Year title for a variety of reasons ranging from their lifetime devotion to a local organization to their contribution to a number of causes. Former Armstrong librarian Ruth Bosomworth, who turned 100 in Armstrong’s centennial year, and longtime Highland Park Elementary teacher Rea Smith were the 2013 cowinners winners of the Armstrong Spallumcheen Citizen of the Year. The 2014 Citizen of the Year will attend the Citizen of the Year tea, hosted by the Armstrong Spallumcheen Museum and Art Gallery June 17, before being officially recognized by the community at Canada Day July 1 in Memorial Park. The closing date for nominations for the 2014 Citizen of the Year has been extended to Wednesday. A panel of judges will select a winner based on information provided on the nomination form, not based on the number of votes. Complete a nomination form available online at www.aschamber.com, on Facebook or in person at the Armstrong Spallumcheen Chamber of Commerce. Ballots are also available at Valley First Credit Union, VantageOne Credit Union and Okanagan Library – Armstrong Branch. Return by Wednesday in person, by fax, e-mail or regular mail.

Eagles ice Turn-Key

Sports awards on tap

Morning Star Staff

Salmon Arm Nation of Domination Eagle Homes grounded Turn-Key Controls 3-0 in North Okanagan Soccer League play Wednesday night at Marshall Field #5. With second place on the line, Eagle Homes went up 2-0 early and Turn-Key tried to mount a comeback after losing a man to a red card. The field was very slippery which caused great chances for both teams. Turn-Key applied some pressure in the second half with Nathan Tucker just missing the net from the 18 after a sweet feed by Jeremy Kler. Reid Foerter took a pass from Tucker at the 12-yard line and bounced a strike wide. Eagle Homes got their third goal on a hard bouncing pass back to keeper Gregg Douma, who mishandled the wet ball. Douma recorded numerous fabulous saves in the final 30 minutes to keep things close. Evan Moore was the Pharmasave Man of the Match for Turn-Key, playing a bold game in the middle and almost nailing the top corner with a late scorcher. Eagle Homes took over second spot at 5-1, while Turn-Key dipped to 4-1-1, in third place. North Enderby Timber moved within a point of Turn-Key by icing host Salmon Arm Outlaws 8-1. The Outlaws (0-7) took advantage early with a lucky 25-yarder that dipped under replacement keeper Adam Marwood. The 4-3 Timber, playing a man short, responded right before the half when La Senza Man of the Match Graham Ross sent Brent Poulsen in on a breakaway which he converted off the post. It was 1-1 at the half. The Timber broke out in the second half with Dexter James beating the keeper to a rebound of a Poulsen shot and heading in the winner. Tyler Loose then beat multiple defenders to

Poulsen tallied his second on a unselfish feed from Andy Stein for the tap in and then completed the hat trick on yet another breakaway assist from Ross with Poulsen chipping the charging keeper. James and Ross then supplied indentical giveand-go goals with each other exposing the Outlaw defence. Stein capped the offence by tapping in a Poulsen cross from the goal line. League-leading Salmon Arm Courvas shut down Monashee Surveying 3-0 at Blackburn Park.

Rookie midfielder Dustin Boreen, who never played youth soccer, showed huge determination and hustle against the youthful and talented Courvas, taking the Red Robin Man of the Match for Monashee (3-4-1). Courvas (6-1) came out strong and took advantage of a new Monashee formation with three snipes in the first 15 minutes. Monashee shuffled back to their old formation and played Courvas even the rest of the night. The Peters Tirecraft at Revelstoke Stallions game was postponed.

Champness pulls Oliver double in style Staff Writer

It was only fitting that Vernon’s Nathan Champness won the 11th Annual Wine Capital of Canada Oliver Half Iron Sunday. After all, the 30-year-old is much like wine fine as he improves with age. A decade ago, Champness ran a half Ironman in five hours and 38 minutes. He posted a sizzling 4:06 to take the Oliver race by six minutes over Anthony Toth of Kelowna. Champness was second last year.

Such drastic strides are not uncommon to the cat-loving Champness, who took an hour off his previous best Vancouver Marathon time (3:07 is his current PB) a few years back. Champness also ruled the Oliver Sprint Triathlon Saturday, in 1:55.20, six minutes in front of Edmonton’s Richard Reid. “When they (Oliver) decided to have both the sprint and Half Ironman races on the same weekend, I figured I would try and win both of them, get

the double,” said Champness. “I was expecting it to go well, but not that well. I shaved time off my personal bests in both distances.” Nothing in the Half Iron went sideways with his bike, which has happened in the past, nor the swim in Tuc-el-Nuit Lake or the run which is fairly flat out and back through the quiet streets of Oliver. The 5-foot-9, 170-pound Kalamalka grad started trail runs as a 19-year-old studying human kinetics

The back line of Michelle Ockert, Hana Whibley, Faren Gosselin and Halle August was solid, anchored by sweeper Desiree Gosselin. Holding strong in midfield were Danielle Butler, Cailin Correia and Alicia Hill-Turner, while Kyla Perry and Anna Cherkowski used their speed up front to create several chances on goal. Darian Newman maintained her stellar goaltending record. Jeremy Purvis and Brett Jewell each scored twice as the SLP Crowne Kings crushed H&L Glass Whites 8-3 in U18 boys play Wednesday night at Marshall Field #2. Mika de Vin, Aaron Keryluke, Chase Petruk and Cody Bisson supplied singles. Numerous clutch assists came from Matt Roberts, Ben Aspenlieder, Brennan Seltzer and Liam Curran. Jewell and Ezra Stich shared the goalkeeping. In Royal LePage U12 girls play, the Blizzards got a brilliant team effort in a 2-0 win over the Smurfs. Kelsey Watts had endless energy as she rotated in several positions, mastering them all. Joelle Smid took control, directing the Blizzards with her awesome throw ins. Lottie Scott was fierce moving the ball up the sides and crossing over for numerous goal opportunities. Savannah Jodoin worked endlessly as a determined defender, while Adelaide Andow was feeling the intensity as she worked hard as sniper. Alanna Davey hustled and pushed the ball around nicely in midfield, while Taylor Holcroft used her time as sniper to score her first goal followed by Grace Dae An pocketing another over the keeper’s head. Kayelyn Holm was terrific as keeper with phenomenal drop kicks. In SubwayU14/15 boys action, the Reds brushed back the White Knights 3-1 Saturday. Gavin Huggins connected for the Reds from a Riley Bos pass just four minutes into the fast-paced affair. Sebastian Wenger worked hard in the 18 and ran into defender Josh Chirkoff, drawing a penalty shot which Wenger converted with a rocket past keeper TJ Ward, in the 60th minute. Bos headed in a rebound after a free kick by Kenzel Aarts-Roman, seven minutes later. The Knights (2-5) responded two minutes later with speedster Kyle Karens drilling a low corker past keeper Mitchell Alexander, who replaced David Park in the second half. Langton Kersey had many quality chances on goal, while Wilson Stewart and Colton Ryan Lewis were solid on defence for the Reds. Birthday boy Yididiya Bunn took Winners Man of the Match for the Knights at central midfield, with honourable mention going to central defender Gavin Donald, who ran miles despite a grueling two-hour morning alpine ski conditioning test.

Kyra Wellington (left) of the Golden Minions and Kristi Vassberg of the Tree Huggers battle for the ball in U10 girls house soccer Saturday at Creekside Park.

The Gold Rush clipped Team White 1-0 in U13 boys action with Tanner Wright burying a hard blast in the fifth minute. From that point on, it was a showcase of defensive powers with Lucas Wood the heart of the Gold Rush back four. The Gold Armadillos and Team Orange battled to a 5-5 draw in Royal LePage U12 boys action. The Armadillos initiated the first goal from striker Ben Harrop, followed by a three-goal performance from midfielder Connor Seahaver and the final tying goal from fullback Travis Towers. Aiden Buckley provided constant hustle. The Red Vultures and Royal LePage Blues drew 4-4 in a highly entertaining U12 boys game. The Blues stormed out to a 3-0 lead before Jacob Tarasenko answered, unassisted, for the Vultures just before the break. The frenetic pace resumed in the second half with great end-to-end chances and defensive and goaltending clinics by both teams. The Vultures, having settled down, registered unanswered goals by Nicolas Petty (assisted by Tarasenko) and Justin Brunton (assisted by Willem Gibson) to level things before the Blues struck again with the 4-3 go-ahead goal. With time running out, Ben Ethier made a dynamic defensive play and turned upfield and fed Tarasenko, who in turn, delivered a 60-foot srike, top corner, for the equalizer. Ethier, who also added an assist, was a rock defensively, while Isaiah Barnes and Caleb Dreier provided steady play. Braydon Riguidel was fantastic, showing a keen eye while shoring up the middle of the field with solid tackling. In U11 play, the Red Hot Chili Peppers sunk the Royal LePage Navy 4-0. Tavis Whibley scored his first goal of the season at 37 minutes and followed with another 90 seconds later. Connor Elliott scored early in the second half to make it 3-0, while an own goal unfortunately was recorded in the 55th minute.

VERNON’S LARGEST LIGHTING SELECTION ~ NO ONE EVEN COMES CLOSE!

The Kal Tire Canadians stretched their Midget baseball win streak to four games by doubling the Kelowna Black Sox 4-2 Tuesday night at Marshall Field. The C’s were ready to break the game wide open with the bases loaded when lightning struck. Catcher Jacob Holland gunned down three Kelowna runners, while Shelby Hartwig, with six strikeouts, and Dylan Emmons, with one K, were marvellous on the mound. Riley Preston, Tyler Lacktin Doyle, Hartwig and Holland each drove in runs for Kal Tire. The Canadians swept host Kamloops 8-0 and 12-4 in a doubleheader Sunday. Back to back RBIdoubles from Kristian Currie and Hartwig broke the opener wide open in the third. “It was our best game of the season,” said C’s assistant coach Dennis Holland. “We had great at-bats from the bottom of the lineup, and solid pitching

from Shelby Hartwig and Brendan Zupp, who combined on a three-hit shutout.” In the nightcap, Mitchell Lukacs, pitching on little sleep after VSS dry grad celebrations, was solid on the mound in his second start of the year. Lacktin Doyle came in to stop a late Kamloops rally. Currie drove in three runs, while Preston had two RBI. Brandon Harder smacked a run-scoring double.

Canadians place 4th

The Prostock Vernon Canadians finished fourth at the Okanagan Spring Classic Bantam A Tournament. Delta downed the Canadians 13-7 in the semifinals Sunday. Noah Foufoulas went 3-for-3 and was a wall behind the plate to earn tournament MVP. Ethan Sawka struck out two batters and Daryl Bloor finished the rest, with one K. Daymon Jassal shone in left field while going 1-for-2 at the dish for game MVP.

Langley edged the C’s 8-6 on Friday. Sawka went 2-for-3 at the plate and struck out four batters. Kalvin Blaeser had a pair of punch outs and Bloor recorded four strikeouts to take MVP. Shelby Porteous was 3-for-3 and Rayne Goodwater swiped two bases. The Canadians dismantled Kelowna 14-9 Saturday. Blaeser’s knuckleball was unhittable, as he fanned seven Kelowna hitters. Graham Moss brought the heat as he also wiffed seven hitters and was the MVP.

Batchelor goes big Morning Star Staff

Chase Batchelor boosted the Vernon Kal Tire Canadians to an 11-3 win over host Rutland #1 in Sunday’s final of the Wesley Nelson Pee Wee Baseball Tournament at Edith Gay Park. Batchelor pitched seven innings and struck out three batters, while smacking back-to-back dingers, one a grand slam, and adding an RBIdouble. Catcher Eric Foufoulas tossed out runners at second and third. Ryan Gamage was solid at first base earning six outs for game MVP. Jack Janzen, Ryan Vandesande and Gamage all stroked RBI-singles, while Carter Morris and Brayden Beacom scored with steals. Koll Cherkowski nailed a sweet single to right field to load the bases. The Canadians clipped Kelowna 9-8 in Sunday’s semifinal with Cherkowski taking MVP with a sixthinning double which led to Morris singling in Vandesande for the winning run. On defence, Gamage ran down a bunt off the mound and made the play to Batchelor at first for an out in the first inning. Gamage hit an RBI-single, while Matthew Hansen and Gamage demonstrated heads-up base running to steal home in the second inning. Foufoulas gunned one runner down at third with Hansen apply-

ing the tag. Morris took over pitching duties in the fifth, fanning one. Foufoulas tossed out runners at second and first for outs. The C’s tied it 8-8 in the fifth with Batchelor bringing in Hansen, and Falcon Thomas knocking one deep to center field for a pair of ribbies. In preliminary games, Vernon grounded the Prince George Knights 8-4, ambushed Rutland #2 22-6 and stuffed West Kelowna 15-1 with MVP honours going to Beacom, Christopher McIntosh and Batchelor. Nakoda Parker doubled in Vernon’s first run against Prince George, while Thomas and Cherkowski each doubled as Vernon maxed out with four runs in the sixth. McIntosh, Gamage and Hansen shared the pitching Batchelor crushed a three-run triple and Thomas knocked an over-thefench homer in the seventh inning versus Rutland #2. Morris mowed down four batters over four innings. Batchelor struck out four over four innings, picked off a runner at second and hammered an over-thefence dinger as Vernon drilled West Kelowna.

The Corporation of the

City of Vernon Viva Las Cherryville Morning Star Staff

Cherryville will be a rockin’. Held annually on the first weekend in June, Cherryville Days runs from today until Sunday. This year’s theme goes back in time to Elvis and the ‘60s. “Let’s rock and roll in the Monashees,” said organizer Lynne Frerichs. “Dust off your poodle skirts, saddle shoes, and ankle socks; your white T-shirts, tightest jeans, and Brylcream. We’ll twist the days and nights away.” The fun kicks off today with a family dance at the community hall from 6 to 8 p.m. Admission is by donation. Then you can start the day off right with a pancake breakfast at the concession from 8 to 9:30 a.m. Saturday. There will be all-day bouncy fun time (including an epic bouncy obstacle course in the afternoon), a kids zone from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. and again from 1 to 4 p.m. and a scavenger hunt at 9:30 a.m. Then all the Betty Crockers of the community can drop off their goodies at 10 a.m. prior to judging for the bake contest at the tea garden, which includes an Elvis cake category.

A watermelon eating contest takes place at 10:30 a.m. prior to the big parade at noon (departing from the Emporium and heading to Cherryville school). The farmers market runs from noon to 4 p.m. in Hanson Park, bike races are at 1 p.m. and then Elivs is in the building to open up the entertainment stage at 1 p.m. (which goes until 5 p.m.). Bingo, lip sync and the outhouse races also get underway in the afternoon. The Handles will rock the night away at the adult dance from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. at the hall, before the fun starts all over again the next day. Sunday also features a pancake breakfast, farmers market, kids zone, watermelon eating contest and bingo in addition to a church service, horseshoes, adult games, kids races and community supper. Cherryville Days is the prime fundraising event of the Cherryville Community Club. The first Cherryville Day was held in 1963, in the field at the corner of Highway 6 and North Fork Road. For more information visit www. cherryville.net/cherryvilledays.html.

Dance assists Dennon Morning Star Staff

The community is urged to come kick up their heels in support of a local teen battling cancer. A Do it for Dennon fundraising dance gets underway Saturday at 8 p.m. at the Elk’s Lodge featuring the band Mace. “Dennon Leibel is a 17-year Vernon student and hockey player that should be concentrating on his graduation this year,” said Lindsay Smith, who is helping out with the event. Instead, he is down at BC Children’s Hospital undergoing treatment for Ewing’s

Sarcoma, which is a rare type of cancer. The fundraiser will help with all the costs of travelling and the accommodations in Vancouver.

“Saturday It will be a fun up-beat evening to raise some funds for this amazing family.” Tickets are available at CIBC and at the door, if any are left.

Bridge by Phillip Alder HOW DO YOU MAINTAIN CONTROL? Sylvester Stallone said, â€œSuccess is usually the culmination of controlling failure.â€? In todayâ€™s deal, success is the culmination of controlling the trump suit. This is easier to do when presented with a deal on paper. At the table, it is harder because no one is ringing a warning bell. South is in four hearts. West starts the defense with his three top spades. How should South continue? North opened one club because his hand was too strong for a 15-17-point no-trump. South was tempted simply to raise clubs. However, he knew that the game revolves around the majors. So he

responded one heart. West made a takeout double, promising four spades and four or more diamonds. Northâ€™s jump to game was an overbid given his 4-3-33 distribution, but he wanted to try for the game bonus. If he had bid only three hearts, South would have also had a close decision. And note that in five clubs, North should lose two spades and one diamond. It looks so easy: Ruff the third spade, draw trumps and run the clubs for an overtrick. Here, though, when West discards on the second round of hearts, the contract is suddenly unmakable. Declarer has lost trump control. South should be happy to

lose one trump trick in order to get these 10: three hearts, one diamond, five clubs and the spade ruff. Declarer must concede the first or second round of trumps. Then he can win Eastâ€™s return, draw trumps and run the clubs. At the worst, this line costs an overtrick when hearts are 3-2 all along.

If you have an interest in horses and enjoy seeing something a little different, you may want to attend the annual Interior Gaited Fun Horse Show at the Agriplex in Armstrong. The 17th annual event takes place Saturday at 10 a.m. and Sunday at 9 a.m. â€œThe show attracts several breeds of gaited and part-gaited horses, such as Peruvian, Tennessee walker, Rocky/Kentucky mountain, paso fino, Missouri fox trotter and Icelandic,â€? said Jackie Evans, with the show committee. â€œThe enjoyable part is watching the various breeds do their natural no-bounce way of going and the fun that their riders have with them.â€? Karan Moore, from Grand Forks, will judge more than 40 classes. â€œThe emphasis is on fun and casual attire for horse and rider,â€? said Evans. â€œYes, there are pleasure, gait and equitation classes but also a whole lot of games to be played. In the arena, there will be a demonstration parade of all the breeds on Saturday at the noon hour, for viewersâ€™ pleasure.â€? A special paso fino garrocha pole demonstration (dressage type movements with a pole) is also planned afterwards. A barbecue lunch will also be available. For more information, call John at 250-5466621 or visit www.interiorgaitedhorseshow.weebly.com.

Camp offers theatrical experience to kids Campers are about to enter Wonderland when Missoula Children’s Theatre returns to Vernon Morning Star Staff

Missoula Children’s Theatre (MCT) is returning to Vernon this summer and registration is now open for the theatrical experience of a lifetime. North America’s largest touring children’s theatre will arrive once again on July 7 at the Vernon and District Performing Arts Centre with all the ingredients for their new production of Alice in Wonderland, except the cast! Registration is now open for local children ages six to 18 to be part of the 50-to-60 member cast. The camp begins July 7 and runs to July 11 from 10 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. On Saturday, July 12, camp participants will take Alice in Wonderland to the stage. “No preparation or prior experience is required,” said the Performing Arts Centre’s audience development coordinator Brian van Wensem. “Participants need only to arrive with a bagged lunch

and the desire to join an on-stage adventure, learning a unique adaptation to the classic story of Alice in Wonderland. It’s an experience that develops creativity, social skills, goal achievement and self-esteem. For those who aren’t interested in being in the spotlight, there are also four backstage spots available for ages 10 and over that will teach important fundamentals of running a production from behind the scenes. North America’s largest touring children’s theatre, the Missoula Children’s Theatre has been touring extensively for more than 40 years now from Montana to Japan, and will visit nearly 1,200 communities this year with dozens of touring actor/director teams. This year’s production of Alice in Wonderland is a unique adaptation of two classic stories by Lewis Carroll: Through the Looking Glass and, of course, Alice in Wonderland. The show follows Alice, who is curious about everything and goes on a fantastical adventure to Wonderland, where she meets a host of colourful characters including the King and Queen of Hearts, a giant caterpillar, the Cheshire Cat, the Mad Hatter, and many more. Through it all, Alice grows “curiouser and curiouser” as to where she is and even who she is. In the end, however, the answers she seeks are unimportant. Wonderland is all nonsense

Morning Star File Photo

Missoula Children’s Theatre actor/director Sam Helmer works with participants from last summer’s Beauty Lou musical theatre camp. Missoula returns to the Performing Arts Centre July 7 for their Alice in Wonderland summer camp. anyway, and as the White Rabbit explains, “Nonsense is fun!” The production is more than memorizing lines. Missoula Children’s Theatre’s mission statement is “the development of life skills in children through participation in the performing arts.” While children are learning this theatrical production they will also have the opportunity

to explore who they are as actors and individuals. Registration forms for the camp can be obtained through the Ticket Seller box office, located at 3800 33rd St., Vernon. Registration is first-come-firstserved and there are a total of 60 casting spots available: 16 for ages six to seven, 26 for ages eight to 12, and 18 for ages 13 to 18.

An additional four spots are available for assistant directors (backstage) open to ages 10 to 18. There will be two public performances of Alice in Wonderland July 12 at 3:30 p.m. and 5:30 p.m. Tickets for the performances are $12 each and can be purchased through the Ticket Seller box office by calling 250-549-SHOW (7469), or online at www.ticketseller.ca.

Japanese artist shows work resulting from Caetani residency Morning Star Staff

Visiting artist Kazuko Kizawa is presenting her visual art exhibition at the Allan Brooks Nature Centre. Kizawa is a contemporary visual artist from Japan visiting Vernon as part of the Caetani Cultural Centre’s artist-in-residence program. The artist will show both a video installation and photography in the exhibition, which is based on colour and light inspired by local lakes and creeks. “I would like to take advantage of the Allan Brooks Nature Centre’s location, overlooking the three lakes, to incorporate site specific elements into the exhibition,” said Kizawa.

As a contemporary visual artist, Kizawa’s work is in variety of media such as installation, video, photo, painting and 3D. Her consistent theme is colour and light. Graduating from Tama University of Arts with a master’s in art in 1999, Kizawa was awarded a contemporary art award judge’s prize at the Made in Kawasaki event in Japan and also received the Asahi Newspaper Cultural Foundation Grants Award. Kizawa has an affinity for Canada and has held previous artist in residencies in the Yukon in 2006, where she returned to in 2008. She was awarded artist in residence at the Banff Centre for the Arts in 2002 and 2009, and her work has been exhibited in Japan, North America, Europe and Oceania.

Kazuko Kizawa presents her photography and an art installation at the Allan Brooks Nature Centre Saturday, Monday and Tuesday. While in Vernon, Kizawa has been living at the Caetani Cultural Centre in the Sveva Caetani suite, with the studio being provided

by the Allan Brooks Nature Centre. She has been working in the Greater Vernon community and at the Allan Brooks Nature Centre, with excursions to wilderness areas and the area’s numerous lakes. The public can meet Kizawa and see her resulting work at an opening presentation in the Habitat room at the Allan Brooks Nature Centre Saturday at noon. The video installation and photo exhibit take place in the second floor studio loft and first floor classroom, respectively. The work will be up for viewing Saturday, Monday and Tuesday from noon to 4 p.m. The Allan Brooks Nature Centre is located at 250 Allan Brooks Way off Mission Road in the Commonage.

A Million ways to Die in the west

lbert (Seth MacFarlane) is unhappy living on the American frontier. His girlfriend (Amanda Seyfried) has left him for the handsome owner of the Moustachery (Neil Patrick Harris) and is also bumming him out, as he is prone to discuss with his friends, strangers, or anyone who will listen, there are A Million Ways to Die in the West. Among the multitude of dangers to avoid is the notorious gunslinger Clinch (Liam Neeson). When Clinch’s unhappy young wife Anna (Charlize Theron) befriends meek Albert, the confidence she bestows on him might just lead him into a whole heap of trouble. We say, “It’s as funny as the shovel from whence it was scraped.” TAYLOR: The fact that Seth MacFarlane is successful makes me wonder if the Illuminati is real. Perhaps there is some evil conspiracy to

Perhaps we are already too late, the Roman circus is in full swing and all we can do is weep for the future. Perhaps I’m taking this a little too far. HOWE: I would say you are not taking this far enough. I thought The Three Stooges was a terrible film, but this takes the biscuit. It gave me one smile out of a film that is oneand-a-half hours long and at a cost of $9.95 that is quite an expensive grin.

If you enjoy different degrees of poop jokes this is full of them and the movie itself is just like it. TAYLOR: It’s not that the film is bad, technically, in all aspects except writing, it deserves a passing grade. It’s only when one considers the entertainment factor of the film that it shows its weakness.

Russell Peters brings Almost Famous tour to Kelowna After setting attendance records around the world and completing one of the biggest comedy tours ever with his Notorious World Tour in 2012, comedian Russell Peters announces the launch of his new Almost Famous World Tour across Canada, which takes place in the fall. Peters stops at Kelowna’s Prospera Place Sept. 24. “I like to interact with the front rows,” says Peters of his signature back and forth with the audience. “I use the interaction to take me from bit to bit. Some guys go on-stage with a script and don’t deviate from it. That’s not my style. I have my set and know what I want to cover; I just use the audience to move me in certain directions. It’s very collaborative and each show is unique.” Tickets to see Peters are $66.50, $81.50 and $91.50 and go on sale

Dark [Trinity]). The band uses space and sparse instrumentation – mainly piano, drums, bass and percussion, along with strings and samples – to capture a low-key, inner-city vibe that’s both unsettling and engaging. The restraint of The Roots’ performance adds resonance to the lyrics and atmospheric direction of the songs. They look inward, pushed along by a sombre groove and uneasy narrative but are outwardly expressive, fusing gospel, hip hop, electronic sensibilities with balladry and neo-soul music.

Tim Hooper (left), with Watkin Motors, PAC president Kathy Nadurak, students Jason Pope and Rylan Nadurak, and principal Jacqueline Taylor prepare for Ellison Elementary’s Drive One 4UR School fundraiser Saturday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the school. For each test drive, Ford will donate $20 to the school. There will also be a pancake breakfast, bake sale and Davison Orchards punch passes on sale.

Taking action

embers of Parliament, John Weston and Dave Wilks, two of my B.C. colleagues, have formed a combatting substance abuse caucus in Ottawa. This caucus is reviewing issues such as, illegal drug abuse as well as the abuse of prescription drugs and the effect of drugs to mental health, and addiction treatment. It might surprise you to think that many Colin Mayes Canadians, especially seniors, have become drug addicted through the improper or prolonged use of pharmaceutical drugs. Canada is the second largest per capita consumer of opioids (sedatives, tranquilizers, depressants, painkillers, etc.) in the world, up by 23 per cent from 2000 to 2010, which is a larger increase than the U.S. To give you an example of the statistics from just one province, in Nova Scotia, the number of people in withdrawal management for opioid dependence increased by 112 per cent since 2006. On May 09, 2013 the minister of health, along with Weston, launched a National Prescription Drug DropOff Day with participating police services all across Canada. Collectively, across the country, 4,000 pounds of RX medications

were surrendered. The impact of this initiative is obvious. By preventing drug abuse, reducing access and availability, chances of accidental deaths in the household, especially for children, is lowered. It also ensures that seniors will not mix drugs that are not compatible, and keeps the medications out of our water system and landfill sites. Folks, this is a big problem. I encourage you to go to your medicine cabinet and separate the drugs you no longer need, review your dependency to any subscription drugs with your doctor, ensure your pharmaceuticals are safely stored, and when in doubt, go to your local pharmacy professional for advice on the usage and purpose of your prescription drugs. This will save lives as it is estimated that up to 10,000 Canadians die each year from improper use of pharmaceutical drugs and one in nine emergency room visits are due to a drug-related cause, of which more than two-thirds were deemed preventable. Some pharmaceutical drugs have been life-changing for people that have health challenges and we can be thankful for that fact. We must, however, endeavor through lifestyle changes and healthier diets to limit the use of feel-good drugs that only mask health issues that we face in life. Consult your physician on how you can better help yourself when dealing with your health challenges.

Ski patrollers share skills Morning Star Staff

Two local volunteer ski patrollers from the Canadian Ski Patrol recently taught some basic first aid skills to Grade 4 students at Mission Hill elementary school. Teacher Terry Petersen, a six-year veteran of the Canadian Ski Patrol, invited parent and CSP leader Brent Kisilevich into his class to share some basic bandage skills. “As part of the health and careers curriculum, children are exposed to learning more about various careers and life skills,” said Petersen. In this unit of study the students were taught first aid basics, how to effectively call 911, what to do with a choking victim, an unconscious victim, and severe bleeding. Basically the students were learning how to help an injured parent or friend or a child under their babysitting care duties.

The children learned what to do when someone is bleeding and how to make a sling. “If your bandage soaks through with blood, you add another on top. Don’t take the first one off,” said Wylan Gettis. Justin Geistlinger appreciated the opportunity to try on an official ski patrol jacket. “We counted 18 pockets!” he said. The Canadian Ski Patrol is a national volunteer organization dedicated to providing mountain safety and first aid to skiers and snowboarders. At Silver Star Mountain, more than 50 volunteer patrollers serve alongside the Silver Star Mountain Ski Patrol. “The life of volunteer patrollers involves a lot of hard work, managing the outdoor winter environment, but the rewards of friendship and social interaction with people who share your

passion for snow sports and helping others can sometimes be the best benefit of all,” said Petersen. “It always feels good to share your skills, and give back to the community which has supported you so well over the years.” The Canadian Ski Patrol at Silver Star is currently recruiting for the upcoming season. If you are an intermediate or advanced boarder or skier, and you are interested in learning or updating first aid, contact cspsspatroll@gmail.com for more information or see joinskipatrol.ca Kisilevich said interested candidates are interviewed throughout the spring and summer, with the first volunteer-led training sessions starting in September and running through November. Meanwhile, at Mission Hill, some early recruitment has already begun. “I’m going to be a ski patroller one day,” said Melina Pelosof.

Erin Inglis, Dawn Johnson, Julie Johnson and Gabriela Ronzanig enjoy a sunny morning on Swan Lake with the Vernon Rowing and Dragon Boat Club. Christ’s agony. Mth. 26:38: Jesus: “My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even unto death.” He knew what was ahead. Judas would betray him - with a kiss. The High Priest, custodian of Yahweh’s truth, would pervert the Law in order to condemn Him. The Jews would demand the release of a murderer, instead of their Messiah. His closest friends would deny and desert Him. Then the humiliation, shame and agony on the Cross. But he said: “Father forgive them, for they know not what they do.”

Couch potatoes are now being grouped with cigarette smokers as taking their lives into their own hands (Rowe and Kahn, 1998).

Feedback:

Sarah, a Coach found out that inspiration and support can work both ways on the physical activity journey. She said, “when I decided to become an Active Choices Coach, I thought I’d be spending my time motivating someone else to get more active. I didn’t realize that being a Coach would motivate me to reach my activity/fitness goals too.”

Rich in bird life and serene, Swan Lake is a little jewel in Vernon. “We have an incredibly broad range of programs and events that the club offers,” said Lisa George, program and event manager at VRDBC. “Our adult and youth rowing programs are now the largest in the Interior and include youth at-risk and one of the largest para-rowing programs in Canada. “Our younger rowers are showing great promise and several are busy preparing for the B.C. Summer Games. We also offer a fantastic dragon boat program, including a breast cancer survivor, women’s and mixed team who are on the water four nights a week.” George said the glassy water of Swan Lake creates a perfect medium for sculls to quietly glide and fly, the feeling of speed on the water becomes second nature and the repetition of the stroke a meditative flow. Paddlers practise in the afternoon to the beat of the dragon boat drum. The unity of 22 paddlers in a boat together make this the ultimate

team sport and the perfect way to unwind at the end of the day. Both rowing and paddling are suited to participants of all ages and abilities. No experience is required, all equipment is provided and all sessions are coached by experienced coaches. Events that the club hosts draw rowers from across the province, including Lap the Lake on June 14 and the Prospera Dragon Boat Festival Aug. 16 at Kal Beach. “As well as hosting great racing we are proud that we include coach mentorship at the event,” said George. “In partnership with Rowing BC we will include development sessions for coaches with two guest mentors at no cost. The festival will bring 600 paddlers together at Kal. The festival partners with the Vernon Jubilee Hospital Foundation and has proudly raised $25,000 to date for the purchase of vital breast cancer diagnostic equipment.” VRDBC will host an open house Saturday from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. and is a perfect opportunity to learn more about the club, meet its membership and try rowing.

Welcome to the driver’s seat

“According to Google Maps, the drive to some tasty yet simple food fare will take approximately 6 hours and 5 minutes, and is about 684 kilometres.” Alexandra Straub

Visit the Audi gallery at DrivewayCanada.ca

How far would you travel for a home cooked meal? Munich, Germany – There’s no shortage of places to chow down here in Bavaria but that’s not really what I had in mind. Sometimes you just by Alexandra Straub hanker for some good ol’ fashioned home cooking and the desire makes distance no object. According to Google Maps, the drive to some tasty yet simple food fare will take approximately six hours and five minutes, and is about 684 kilometres. One way. That’s not including the approximately 8,300 kms travelled to get to Munich, Germany. The destination: Budapest, Hungary, where I’ll have one night to spend with my grandparents – grandma Ilona and grandpa Pál Lencsés. I’ve got the use of a bright red 2015 Audi A3 and a full tank of gas, so why not? Considering I’ll be there less than 24 hours, words like “ambitious” or “motivated” or even “crazy” might describe my reasoning. But heck, if it means I get a home cooked meal, I’d travel all night. Relatively speaking, I’m so close to them. I couldn’t let the opportunity go to waste. And anyone who loves their grandparents’ cooking will sympathize.

drive is. Especially on the most, direct route. Knowing Getting me there doesn’t involve security screenings, boarding passes, the hospitality of flight attendants or that I would get to spend some quality time with my the company of an Airbus. With my bag tucked away grandparents, and the A3, kept me going.

Putting the finishing touches to the magnificent Mustang By Nigel Matthews

Our classic and collector car expert continues today with the third part of his four-part series on the restoration of public relations executive Laura Ballance’s rare 1967 Ford Mustang T5 by 360 Fabrication in Abbotsford. The Mustang T5 body shell has been painted, clear coated, wet-sanded, re-cleared and finally polished to a show quality finish. Now comes the fun part of a restoration, the reassembly, opening boxes and fitting all of those new parts. This is as close as you can get to being a car factory assembly line worker except you are doing every task instead of just one, and you have all the time that is needed and not having to work to the speed of a moving production line. One of the upgrades that the T5 will receive is a new product designed to dampen and suppress the

car sheet metal and parts. “If you are doing a premium muscle car restoration the only sheet metal you want to use is from LKQ,” asserted Rick Francoeur at 360. The exterior panels will soon have their final fitting. They have been fitted and removed during the restoration process countless times to make sure that the panel gaps are correct. The final fitting process will involve two or three people to make sure that the paint does not get chipped or damaged. Before the original V-8 engine was removed from the car it underwent a compression check, all of the cylinders had equal and strong readings so a complete re-build was not necessary. The carburetor has been replaced with a new two-barrel, the automatic transmission has been completely re-built as has the rear axle. Rick talked Laura out of fitting a modern rack and pinion power steering kit or even upgrading the manual steering box to a power-assisted unit so it

driveline and road noise, making the inner cabin as quiet as possible and a bit like a modern car. The foil covered pads have a peel off backing and are adhered to every inner sheet metal panel such as the roof, floor, doors and bulkhead. The next step is to install the new wiring harness; old wiring harnesses become brittle over time due to heat and corrosion at the joints and terminals, ask the owner of any British Sports Car from that era! The interior has been completely renewed from top to bottom staring with the headliner, trim panels, carpets, dash pads and the seats have all been reupholstered. Before the new back glass and windshield are installed (all of the other glass panels have been replaced) the new vinyl top is installed. Installing a vinyl roof is not a task that is performed very often these days but 360 have the skills to do this in-house. LKQ stocks a huge selection of high quality muscle

will be reliving the Armstrong steering experience for Laura when parking at low speeds! One safety upgrade is the installation of original Ford front disc-brakes; these are a must in today’s traffic. Collector vehicle drivers are very cautious, invariably when accidents occur it is the drivers around you that are not paying attention or cutting you off. 360 have done their research and paid a lot of attention to detail during this rebuild, right down to avoiding the temptation of installing an exhaust system with two tailpipes. Next week, we will explore what exactly a T5 is? How rare they are and explore some of the events that Laura and her brand new old car car will be attending in this 50th anniversary year of the Ford Mustang.

While most auto manufacturers provide option lists as long as your arm, the 2014 Buick Enclave provides many luxuries as standard equipment. Particularly appreciated by yours truly on an extended test drive were the perforated leather seats that conform to your body and provide comfort and warmth via easily accessible heater/air conditioning buttons. I found the Enclave to be very comfortable and the cabin to be very quiet, in fact there was little if any road noise. Seating for seven with an option for eight, gives riders plenty of room and all seats are very comfortable. The second seats slide forward easily thanks to ‘Smart Slide’, enabling quick access to the third-row seating area. With the pull of a lever, the cushion flips up while the seatback slides forward. The system can be adjusted to provide more legroom either for those in the second row or third. I should also note the ice blue LED light strip that envelops the entire inside of the vehicle at night, forming a chest high ring of light. Might be ok if you’re a fan of the movie Tron, but I found it a bit distracting. Moving on . . . The Enclave features enough technological upgrades to excite any techno savvy person. The Buick IntelliLink system is an interactive audio system that enables you to access music and apps from your smartphone. It also offers a voice to text system to discourage the temptation to glance at your smartphone while driving. I used the system extensively and proved to be a real winner. Many safety features are available with this vehicle including rear cross traffic alerts that help you detect vehicles as you are backing up. There is also an available side blind zone alert that uses radar to identify a vehicle traveling in one of your blind spots. In additional to all the usual airbags, Buick has introduced an industry first driver’s seat side mounted front centre airbag. It provides cushioning between the driver and front passenger in side impacts. Nice weather encouraged me to take a trip to Whistler along the Sea-to-Sky highway. I have always enjoyed that highway with all the twists and curves. The Enclave was a little sluggish on the hills but overall it handled very well. The tester had a 3.6-litre V6 engine, which generates 288 horsepower, is mated to a six-speed automatic transmission and offers direct injection with variable valve timing. The all-wheel drive system detects wheel slippage and delivers power to the wheel to give you it the best grip. I’ve left the looks until last because the major changes came in the last model year so differences are only subtle. It does now have a noticeable splash of LED accent lighting over the headlights. The Enclave is designed to be a stylish people mover and it definitely achieves that goal. Overall, it was a nice driving experience and with a few changes, it could be a more attractive one too. ian.harwood@drivewaybc.ca
