Parks plan carries $12 million cost
Celebrity Sighting JENNIFER SMITH/ MORNING STAR
RICHARD ROLKE
Sir Anthony Hopkins does some shopping at the Village Green Centre Monday morning upon his arrival to Vernon prior to shooting Go With Me, which starts production today in Enderby and Lumby. “We just got into town,” said Hopkins, after picking up a warm beverage at Starbucks with his wife, where only a few patrons recognized the Oscar-winning star (even the local baristas couldn’t believe they had just served him).
Morning Star Staff
Being responsible for parks won’t come cheap for the City of Vernon. Council received a draft of the parks master plan Monday, and the total price tag to implement the document is $12 million over 10 years. “This is new to us,” said Cleo Corbett, longrange planner, Cleo Corbett of the city taking over control of most parks from the Regional District of North Okanagan. “Parks have only been under our jurisdiction for five months.” Of the $12 million price tag, it’s expected that $6.6 million will come from grants, community contributions, development cost charges and surplus land sales by the city. However, that leaves an estimated shortfall of $5.4 million, which could possibly be covered by a 1.7 per cent
tax increase. This option will be considered further through public consultation. Of the $12 million, $3 million is earmarked for future enhancements to Polson Park. “Three million will get us more than the zero per cent of a $9 million plan that never came forward (from RDNO),” said Mayor Rob Sawatzky. Another item in the draft plan is possible redevelopment of the Civic Arena site into a park. However, even if a new ice sheet is constructed at Kal Tire Place, Coun. Catherine Lord believes there could be other uses for Civic Arena instead of demolishing it. “The plan presupposes that we dispose of the current Civic and that hasn’t been decided yet. I don’t want that cast in concrete in the plan,” she said. Ongoing legal battles between the city and the Okanagan Equestrian Society mean the Kin Race Track is not in the parks plan. “The future of the site is not known but there are significant recreational opportunities there,” said Corbett.
Irrigation rates rolled back for courses RICHARD ROLKE Morning Star Staff
Vernon’s golf courses are getting a break. City council voted Monday to roll back the 2014 reclaimed water rates to 2013 levels, and Predator Ridge and the Rise will be Brian Quiring reinvoiced for the 2014 season using 2013 rates. “We’re encouraged,” said Bob Evans, Predator Ridge’s director of development.
“It’s obvious that our rates are out of sync with the rest of the industry.” Council has also directed staff to work directly with the golf industry to establish a rate schedule for reclaimed irrigation water. Reclaimed irrigation water rates will be fixed at the 2013 level until council directs otherwise. According to the city, Predator Ridge irrigation rates climbed from $86,057 to $143,352 between 2013 and 2014 while rates at the Rise increased from $16,305 to $31,103. Officials say rolling back rates will not have significant implications for the city as 2013
DON’T PAY until NEXT YEAR
actual revenue was $161,000 while the 2014 budget called for revenue of $150,000. The Vernon Golf and Country Club also receives reclaimed water but it’s not been charged to date. The course had expected to be billed $141,000 in 2015. The golf courses expressed concerns about the rate structure two weeks ago and Coun. Brian Quiring insists it was critical for the city to act quickly. “They are great corporate citizens and we need to do everything possible to keep them in business,” he said.

Partnership key to golf tourney ROGER KNOX Morning Star Staff
Two organizations have linked up for a fun day on the links. The Kindale Developmental Association and Special Olympics B.C. Vernon have announced the 2015 Vernon Golf Spectacular, sponsored by Telus, set for June 20 at the Vernon Golf and Country Club. “It’s going to be a super interesting different event,” said Karen Truesdale, a project coordinator for Kindale and a Special Olympics volunteer coach who served as emcee for the golf announcement at the Vernon Golf and Country Club.

Vernon Special Olympics golfer Vernon Doncaster (left) and coach Karen Truesdale help announce the first Vernon Golf Spectacular June 20, 2015. to feature special athletes and special sports pros for a day of golf, fun and prizes. “Special Olympics B.C. Vernon is thrilled to work together with Kindale on this event,”
said Gretzmacher. “This partnership is a natural fit. Through training and competitions, Special Olympic athletes empower themselves and inspire everyone around them
as they set and achieve goals, build pride and confidence with their accomplishments and forge valued friendships.” Among the local athletes on hand for the announcement was Special Olympics golf whiz Vernon Doncaster, a member at VGCC. Like Special Olympics, partnerships are important to Kindale. “There are significant strengths in working together to enhance the lives of people in our community,” said Masters. “Special Olympics and Kindale make a difference on a daily basis to people who are sometimes the most vulnerable members of our community but are, all too often, neglected or forgotten.” Telus’ general manager for the southern Interior, Steve Jenkins, called the sponsorship
for the golf tournament “an outstanding opportunity.” “It’s really in our fabric, in our DNA, that we have to give where we live,” said Jenkins. “In order to do business in communities and be successful, we need to enable communities. These types of activities are paramount to what we are about.” Registration forms and sponsorship opportunities for the golf event can be found online at www. VernonGolfSpectacular. com.

Officers investigate vehicle down ravine ROGER KNOX Morning Star Staff
The case of the car in the canyon is somewhat of a mystery. Vernon RCMP received a call Saturday shortly before 1 p.m. that a vehicle rolled over an embankment and into a gully in the Noble Canyon area off Highway 6 in Lavington. “Our officers attend-
ed and looked for an access area to find the vehicle,” said RCMP spokesperson Gord Molendyk. “The witness stated he saw a car barrel roll from the top of the cliffs, roll about 10 times, become airborne and land in the gully below where he could not see it. The witness said he did not see anyone ejected from the
vehicle nor did he see any other vehicles at the top of the cliffs.” The distance from the cliff top to the gully below is about 300 to 350 feet. Vernon Search and Rescue were called out due to the uncertainty of people being in the vehicle. Search and rescue sent a rope team into the area as well as a heli-
copter that lowered a technician down to the crash site by winch. After locating the tracks where the vehicle left the road, debris leading down the hillside, and the marks in the hill where the vehicle impacted, it was learned that the vehicle involved was an unoccupied Mazda minivan with no license plates. The vehicle iden-
Driver facing charges after collisions ROGER KNOX
Morning Star Staff
A 22-year-old Vernon woman is facing impaired driving charges after allegedly being involved in several collisions Saturday night. Just before 11 p.m., RCMP officers responded to a report of an impaired driver in the area of 43rd Avenue and the intersection at Kal Tire Place. “The caller reported he was stopped at the light when a vehicle came through the red light at the intersection westbound travelling in excess of 90 kilometers an hour. and sideswiped the driver’s side of his car,” said RCMP spokesperson Gord Molendyk. The caller’s vehicle was damaged along the driver’s side, and the offending driver of the car did
not stop, but continued westbound on 43rd Avenue at a high rate of speed. A short time later, police located the suspect vehicle. a grey Chevy Cavalier, on Old Kamloops Road with severe damage. The driver of the suspect vehicle was arrested for impaired driving. “Our officers received several calls regarding the actions of this driver and the car,” said Molendyk. “It was learned that this vehicle was also involved in another collision just after running into the vehicle by Kal Tire Place. “It appears this woman was involved in three collisions, damaging a median and shearing off a yield sign.” There were no injuries reported in any of these accidents.
tification number (VIN) was located and checked. “There were seven or eight other vehicles in the gully,” said Molendyk. “No license plates or VINs were obtained from them,
the area was not safe to examine and the helicopter was running low on fuel.” ICBC has been advised of the file. Molendyk said a thorough search has been conducted along
the vehicle’s path down the slope and in the gully. No victims were located. “It appears that the unoccupied vehicle had been sent down the slope intentionally,” said Molendyk.

A non-issue
he Greater Vernon Chamber of Commerce issued a press release last week indicating that a majority of Vernon’s mayoralty and councillor candidates back a study into governance of Greater Vernon. “Our members have long supported a move towards amalgamation as a means to streamline local government and make the region`s many local governments more efficient in responding to the opportunities for economic development, said Dan Rogers, chamber general manager. Now the results of the chamber survey come as no surprise. First off, it’s obvious that most of the Vernon candidates believe the pros and cons of amalgamation should be pursued further. But one can also make the Richard Rolke case that it’s politically expedient for those seeking votes to provide the answer they know a specific group wants to hear. The chamber states that its membership supports a move towards amalgamation, but are they reflective of the broader community? Yes about 2,000 Vernon residents signed a pro-governance study petition last year, but consider that Vernon has a population of 38,150. On top of this, the issue of amalgamation was not raised by a member of the public during any of the forums leading up to Saturday’s election and it hasn’t dominated the campaign platform of any individual candidates. Also consider that while the Greater Vernon Governance Society garnered a lot of publicity during its petition drive, none of the society’s executive put their name forward as a candidate to promote the issue further. Partly, as a result, staunch opponents to amalgamation, the mayor of Coldstream and the directors for Areas B and C, were acclaimed. And when you go to www.greatervernongovernance. ca, you get the following message: “this account has been suspended.” Now it should be pointed out that while
BEYOND THE HEADLINES
amalgamation hasn’t surfaced as a burning issue in Vernon, it was put before Coldstream councillor candidates at last week’s forum. All seven dismissed the concept, which wasn’t a surprise given that anything other than a no response wouldn’t have gone over very well with the Coldstream Ratepayers Association crowd. Given the Vernon candidates’ willingness to line up behind a governance review, outgoing mayor Rob Sawatzky is concerned what a new crop of politicians could mean for the city’s relationship with the neighbours. “Be responsible about your statements. You must deal with the realities of the day and the reality is there are no willing partners at this point,” he said, adding that beyond Coldstream and the electoral areas, the provincial government will not sanction a study unless there are at least two jurisdictions participating. If a new Vernon council keeps hammering at the issue, how will Coldstream and electoral area officials react, and will a war of words stall any co-operative efforts over water, a new ice sheet and cultural facilities like an art gallery and museum? Vernon taxpayers require financial support from the other jurisdictions for those projects to proceed. Coldstream and the electoral areas also have land available for economic development, something Vernon doesn’t. In the chamber’s press release, Rogers says, “We’re pleased to see the overwhelming majority candidates in Vernon are willing to keep an open mind on the topic and we hope other jurisdictions will follow suit.” Fair enough, but the Vernon candidates should equally keep an open mind that amalgamation doesn’t have buy-in from officials in the other jurisdictions nor are a majority of residents throughout the region demanding immediate change. Without that, the provincial government will stay on the sidelines. On Nov. 15, a new Vernon council will be elected to represent the best interests of its constituents. Those duties should include checking personal views at the door and making nice with the neighbours.
Ebola isn’t likely to be the world-ending pandemic doomsayers have been predicting since at least the 1960s. But that doesn’t mean it doesn’t have the potential to be, nor should governments be chided for taking measures to limit the spread of the disease. Canada has lately come under fire from human rights groups for restricting travel from the worst-affected African countries, where the disease has already taken thousands of lives. We don’t want to add to the fear-mongering surrounding Ebola, but neither should its deadliness be set aside, or its potential to spread if measures aren’t taken. People now look back on the Y2K crisis, calling it a fizzle, or worse, a hoax. “There wasn’t a computer meltdown, nothing happened,” is a common complaint. Truth is, a lot happened. A lot of work was done leading up to the 2000 to update software and fix mission-critical hardware, so yes, the planes didn’t fall out of the sky. Ebola needs to be dealt with the same way. Taking measures now, like quarantines and limiting travel, prevents a bigger problem later. Considering its long incubation period and the short time it takes to kill its host, Ebola is unlikely to get a foothold — but the danger of a pandemic can’t be set aside. SARS, hantavirus and Rift Valley fever have all presented the possibility of a pandemic at one time or another. But we don’t need to look to exotic diseases. Even the flu that we deal with on a yearly basis has proven potential to spread out of control — the 1918 Spanish flu epidemic killed up to 100 million people. So while world governments do what they can to prevent the spread of Ebola, you can do your own bit to prevent the spread of a different deadly disease by getting your flu shot. —Penticton Western News

Voters can make a difference
t every election, we hear about the very poor turnout of voters. I for one think the silent majority has given up on politics at all levels. Some interesting points, Kelowna has one bylaw officer for every 8,417 population, Penticton has one bylaw officer for every 10,959 population and Vernon has one officer for every 2,725 population. Are we really that bad? Vernon had a core review that recommended bylaw be contracted out, but nothing happened. Does the City of Vernon, at its size, need its own dispatch centre or could it be contracted out the same as others have done? Is there a need for the firefighters to drive a large fire truck around town, that likely runs around $750,000, when a pickup will do? What about the Okanagan Landing fire department decision that was made in-camera? Will we ever know? VOTE YES I went to the Greater Vernon Water open house Oct. 28 firmly of the view that I should vote no at the upcoming referendum Nov. 15. But I quickly changed my mind as I listened to the reasons we need to proceed. I will be voting a resounding yes to borrowing $70 million for the following reasons: Financial – if we raise the loan now, we will have better access to provincial and federal infrastructure funds. If not, we are on our own. The loan will be at two per cent if we proceed now as interest rates are low. If we wait, interest rates could be much higher so our costs will increase. Costs for all of the projects will increase if we delay and have to undertake these projects on a more haphazard basis. If we do not proceed with this loan and are forced to proceed with some or all of these projects, our water rates will increase more as the whole system is funded by user payments. Water supply – the planned projects will help us deal with changes in precipitation patterns and droughts by increasing the Aberdeen reservoir’s capacity and protecting our water licenses to draw water from Okanagan Lae. Could we lose those water licenses
Does a city the size on Vernon need a media relations person? Does Vernon need an adviser to the economic planner? How about the visitor information office? Was that a done deal before the rezoning and the approval from the Ministry of Transportation?
if we do not start using them? Who knows, but I would prefer to avoid that possibility. Water quality – I like the idea that I can drink tap water and not worry about chemical or biological contamination. I like the idea that our tap water will be of the best quality for the foreseeable future so I do not have to spend hundreds or thousands of dollars on a filter system. I’m voting yes to borrow $70 million to ensure we have a reliable supply of safe water for the foreseeable future. I’m not happy about the way we fund our water utility and suggest we take our politicians to task for the current rate structure and force them to find a better funding formula. Rose Harryman WATER RATES Having just read the waffling and evasive answer to the question "Are Greater Vernon Water rates the highest in the province" in the RDNO column on page A4 of the Nov. 4 Morning Star, and having moved to Vernon in August 2013, I decided to answer the question for myself by taking my billings from the City of Vernon and comparing them to the similar period in Penticton just before I left.
In Vernon, the city employee who serves as chief election officer can choose between a bonus of $1,600 or taking five days of extra vacation. They also get served free lunches and dinner on voting day. Neither Kelowna or West Kelowna give any extra money or vacation time.
I found that for a similar sized property in Penticton I paid exactly $469, whereas in Vernon, I paid $1,133.82. We also had a swimming pool and hot tub in Penticton which we do not have in Vernon. To compare exactly in Penticton, I paid a rate of $1.46 per 100 cubic feet for six months of the year which went up to $1.53 per 100 cubic feet for the last six months. This compares to the lowest rate of Vernon at $0.50 per cubic meter ($1.44 per 100 cubic feet) and the highest rate of $2.15 per cubic meter ($6.09 per 100 cubic feet). In addition, I always thought that Penticton had one of the highest rates in the province but some of the best water after a large sum of money was spent some years ago making their system one of the best in Canada after an outbreak of beaver fever severely damaged the tourist trade. This is clearly not the case and there is something wrong when I am paying almost 2.5 times what I paid for a similar sized property and the rate goes up to more than four times what I was paying in Penticton. Brian Sutch COMMON SENSE Mr. Will Rogers, I have no idea
There's no free food on election day either. How about all of the bike lanes and narrow streets? Has anyone asked the tax payers about this? This letter is just not about the city of Vernon or the regional district. A few years ago, the residents of Coldstream voted down the referendum for a new municipal office but it was built anyway. The new water rates in my opinion are nothing short of extortion for everyone in the Greater Vernon area. I believe these are just a few reasons for the poor voter turnout. It just seems to me that the taxpayers who pay the wages and bills are not being listened too. Thank you for taking the time to read this and whether you agree or not, please get out and vote. Only we, the voting tax payer, can make a difference. W.J. (Bill) Ridgway
who you are or where you live, but after reading your letter in the Oct. 31 edition, I feel it necessary to address you in person. I would love to meet and have coffee some day with you and many others who have your/our sense of community and common sense approach to how this City of ours has/is being run. Maybe if enough of us came together, we could find a way to enlighten our public servants that they have not, in my opinion, made too many good fiscal and common sense decisions for the benefit of the majority of Vernon residents. Maybe a list of concerns such as yours could be put forward to be completed by our elected officials as their platform for election. I too have struggled with who would best serve us as a community to lead the others on council, and I think you are right. Klaus Tribes seems to have his heart in the community and his soul in our best interests. Having paid for my own police car in speeding tickets in the past, I think the photo radar was the best of all deterrents. When can a parked mini-van create so many heart palpitations, and see so many brake lights come
on. Incidentally, Alberta still uses photo radar with great success, and they haven’t deemed them to be unconstitutional. Paul Elmont

Ballet has bite Morning Star Staff
It’s a few weeks after Halloween, but locals can catch another vampire at their door, when Ballet Victoria presents its world premiere of Dracula at the Vernon Performing Arts Centre Nov. 21. Audiences should prepare for a dance performance with a dramatic bite as the timeless tale, based on the original story by Bram Stoker, continues to seduce generations with its enthralling sensuality. Ballet Victoria is putting in its own stake with a neoclassical spin on the immortal tale. Artistic director Paul Destrooper says the company has transcended the trendy theme of vampires by reaching deep into the psyche of the long feared Romanian count to drag his essences to the light – kicking, screaming, and pirouetting. “We expose Dracula, along with the other characters in the plot, to challenge our values of good and evil and where the balance sits for each of us individually,” he said. “We will each attach to the characters differently depending on our predispositions. It is our personality that will drive your empathy for the characters in the ballet and
the experience you derive from the performance.” Ballet Victoria has transformed under the artistic directorship of Destrooper into a cultural asset for B.C. Their performances, which have included timeless stories such as Cinderella, staged in Vernon in 2012, combine the stunning classical lines of pointe work and modern contemporary dance forms. “Blending the vocabulary of 21st century styles and traditional classical makes the emotion and the gravity of the choreography better reflect the mood and dramatic intention,” said Destrooper. For this tale of love and immortality, 12 dancers are devouring their roles for a six-city tour through B.C. “I enjoy working with a company with such technical ability” said Destrooper. “I am constantly challenging their creativity and stepping further into new works and pushing boundaries.” In Dracula, the romantic and sensual pas de deuxs will be juxtaposed with a score that includes Aussie singer Sia’s top 10 hit, Chandelier. “The show is going to be extremely entertaining. It is dark and inviting. It will leave

Ballet Victoria is bringing its world premiere of Dracula to the Vernon Performing Arts Centre stage, Nov. 21 at 7:30 p.m. you moved and inspired,” said Destrooper, “This show is food for your fantasy.”

Bands close out Canadian tour in Vernon Saturday One Bad Son and The Lazys play straight up rock ‘n roll from the Prairies and Down Under
Morning Star Staff
It’ll be a night of serious rock ‘n’ roll when Saskatoon natives One Bad Son are joined by Australian band The Lazys on the western leg of their Canadian tour, which wraps up at The Max nightclub in Vernon Saturday. Known as one of Canada’s hardest working rock bands, One Bad Son is playing two back-to-back tours across the nation. This, band members say, actively encompasses their nose-to-the-grindstone approach to life on the road, an attitude they have showcased since their formation in Saskatoon more than 10 years ago. “This is likely the biggest tour of our career and we couldn’t be more excited or ready for it,” said drummer Kurt Dahl. “We get to headline a second tour from coast to coast, playing our new music. Not ‘til I say that out loud do I realize how amazing that truly is.” One Bad Son recently released their fourth full-length album Black Buffalo on 604 Records. It features their current single Vinyl Spin Burner and Satellite Hotel, which hit the Top 5 on the Active Rock chart (Mediabase) and was the number one most added track for two weeks following its debut. Black Buffalo follows the success of the

Saskatoon’s One Bad Son are in Vernon Saturday to support new album, Black Buffalo. Joining them at The Max nightclub is Australian band The Lazys. band’s 2012 self-titled album, which captured the attention of Canadian rock radio stations, with the hit single Scarecrows reaching the Top 5 and Retribution Blues, which found a home at No. 6 on the Active Rock chart (Mediabase). One Bad Son have made a name for themselves performing alongside talent including Three Days Grace, Monster Truck, Theory of A Deadman, Default, Buckcherry and Crash Karma. In 2013, they were crowned the victors of SiriusXM’s Rock The Grey Cup, where they
represented the Saskatchewan Roughriders, performing during the festivities at the 101st Grey Cup. On the heels of announcing their Canadian debut album, Australian rockers The Lazys have been eagerly plying for Canadian crowds since arriving in October. They kicked off their visit performing alongside Big Wreck in Toronto and with The Trews in Montreal. Their self-titled release, which came out Oct. 21, includes current single Shake It Like You Mean It, as well as additional collaborations with producer Garth Richardson (Rage
Against The Machine, Nickelback, Motley Crue). The Lazys made a splash earlier this year at Canadian Music Week in Toronto, performing three sets in only 23 hours. Referred to as “the best new live band” by Shake It Like You Mean It co-writer Ian D’Sa of Billy Talent, The Lazys’ Canada Music Week performances included a set at the legendary Horseshoe Tavern in Toronto alongside fellow Australians You Am I. “Playing Canadian Music Week was just insane,” said guitarist Matt Morris. “Great crowds, amazing venues and the support from everybody was just amazing. I had the time of my life and we can’t wait to return to play shows across Canada.” The Lazys have been busy in Australia since their formation in 2008, releasing three EPs and a full-length album, Prison’s Earth (2010). They have had a chance to work with renowned producers including Phil McKellar and Matt Lovell (Grinspoon, Silverchair), a collaboration that spawned several successes and helped to build a loyal fan base at home. The New South Wales natives had their big break in November, 2008, when they secured more than 3,000 votes to win the Jack Daniels Set, a national music competition to find Australia’s best live band. From there, their single Hey Man charted high on Triple M’s Best Aussie Songs 2009 list and Sunshine City was adopted as the FOX sports theme song. Doors to Saturday’s show with One Bad Son and The Lazys open at 8 p.m. at The Max, located at 2900 29th Ave. Tickets are $10, available at the door or at eventbrite.ca.

The 100-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out of the Window and Disappeared, showing Monday at the Vernon Towne Cinema, is the next of the Vernon Film Society’s fall offerings. The movie is based on the international bestseller by Jonas Jonasson. It was a huge box office success in his native Sweden. It’s the unlikely story of a centenarian who decides it’s not too late to start over. Desperate to avoid his 100th birthday party, Allan Karlsson (Robert Gustafsson, who is 50 years old) climbs out his nursing home window and heads to the nearest bus station, intending to travel as far as his pocket money will take him. His spur-of-the-moment decision to steal a suitcase from a fellow passenger launches Allan on a strange and unforeseen journey involving, among other things, nasty criminals, a large amount of cash, and an elephant named Sonya. Gustafsson, one of Sweden’s most popular comedians, fully inhabits the role of Allan, whose complex biography includes

Hear the story of Cougar Annie Sunday Morning Star Staff
A Vancouver Island legend is being brought back to life when the musical drama Cougar Annie Tales is presented at Lorenzo’s Café as part of a B.C.-wide tour, Sunday. California-born Ada Annie Jordan settled in the Clayoquot coastal rainforest in 1915 with her first husband and three young children. A five-acre garden that she carved out of the wilderness provided food and income throughout her long life. The bounty on cougars supplemented her income and she earned her moniker of Cougar Annie by reputedly shooting more than 70 of the animals. Jordan gave birth to eight more children in this remote location, and rarely left the property until old age and blindness forced her removal to Port Alberni, where she died just shy of 97. Katrina Kadoski spent close to three years at Cougar Annie’s garden, immersing herself in the folklore sur-

Cannas can be stored in winter
T
he summer has been fantastic and now some of the plants that did so well need to come in for winter. I had a reader phoning me and wanting to know what to do with all her canna lilies. As I write this, mine are still in the garden waiting for the coming frost. The following information comes from The Encyclopedia of Organic Gardening. Cannas are Jocelyne Sewell perennials but will not survive our winters. They brighten the flower bed or border from midsummer to frost. The roots should be planted as soon as the soil has thoroughly warmed up in the spring. Set them about two inches (five cm) deep and 12 to 24 inches (30 cm to 60 cm) apart. A good shovelful of compost should be mixed in the soil around each root. If you want earlier flowers, the roots may be started inside early in April. Use good soil in the pots with some compost mixed in. After warm weather comes, transplant them to the garden. Cannas need as much sunlight as
A GArdener’s diAry
they can get. They do not bloom in shade, and should have sun at least half of the day. The soil must be moist at all times, and should never be allowed to dry out. By midsummer they will make good growth and will be ready for another feeding of compost. With correct culture, each root division will have grown into a large clump by fall. On the morning you find the leaves frosted, cut off the stalks just above the soil line before the sun shines on them and turns them black. This improves the keeping quality of the roots. Lift each clump carefully, allowing some soil to adhere to it. One of the best methods of storing is to put the soil-covered clumps in boxes and cover with dry sand. A temperature of about 60 degrees F (15 degrees C) is best for storage. Cannas will rot at a low storage temperature and dry at a high one. The roots should be examined several times during the winter, spoiled ones removed and the temperature changed if necessary. When planting time comes again, remove all dirt from the roots and divide them into sections with two or three points, or “eyes.” Each of these will grow into a stalk.
Storing differs a lot for gardeners. Some store them in shredded newspaper, others in peat moss or even leaf mold. One internet site suggests putting them in plastic bags with holes to let the air circulate. I will leave mine in pots with the dirt. Last year I lost most of them as they dried in the peat moss as our basement is a bit too warm. The same method as above can also be applied to dahlias. I will be dealing with both this week. I do not take off all the dirt from my dahlias and I pack them in open plastic grocery bags with some peat moss. Early January I check on them and if too dry, I will spray with water very lightly. I finally got my potted perennials in the greenhouse for winter. I covered the whole floor with three layers of newspaper and added shredded leaves on top. The larger pots are lined along the outside and the smaller ones are in the centre. I have a mini greenhouse inside and some pots are on the shelves which are also covered with newspaper. I have some smaller pots in black crates also lined with newspaper and leaves. Later on I will cover everything with more leaves and like my plants, I will hibernate.

Mara hall gets funding RICHARD ROLKE Morning Star Staff
Water quality at a North Okanagan community hall is getting a financial boost. The Electoral Area Advisory Committee will provide $18,237 in community works funds to the Mara Community Hall for water system upgrades. “They have been on a boil water advisory,” said Jackie Pearase, rural Enderby director, of the hall’s two wells. “The Interior Health Authority is telling them to do the upgrades.” Due to the existing water Jackie Pearase source being very hard, the hall will now get its water from the Shuswap River. UV and chlorine disinfection is needed. Pearase says she is providing funds because the hall does not have the financial resources to proceed on its own. “Without a community hall, it would be a big blow to the community,” she said, adding that she is also investigating what ongoing maintenance of the water system will cost. Fire standards a concern New training requirements for firefighters are generating a lot of heat. The Electoral Area Advisory Committee is concerned about the potential impact of new fire service minimum training standards imposed by the province’s fire commissioner. “There is uncertainty about liability exposure and the transition time to meet the new standards,” said Rick Fairbairn, rural Lumby director. It’s expected the new standards will require increased funding from the Regional District of North Okanagan for training for current firefighters and new recruits. “It could be difficult to attract new recruits because of the training and time required,” said Fairbairn. Swan Lake quality investigated Officials want to get a sense of what’s happening in Swan Lake. The Electoral Area Advisory Committee has agreed to spend up to $31,148 on a Swan Lake water quality assessment. “The regional district is interested to find out what influence, if any, adjoining land uses, existing sewage disposal systems and storm water are having on water quality,” said Anna Page, Regional District of North Okanagan sustainability co-ordinator. “Various historical developments exist near the lake and there is concern regarding the impact of land use activities on water quality.”

Why do I need a will?
If you don’t have a will, a court decides who gets your assets. A will is a device that lets you tell the world whom you want to get your assets. Die without one, and the state decides who gets what, without regard to your wishes or your heirs’ needs. Making a will is especially important for people with young children, because wills are the best way to transfer guardianship of minors. You may amend your will at any time. In fact, it’s a good idea to review it periodically and especially when your marital status changes.
We worry, so you don’t have to!

Anybody missing a blue Gio electric scooter may want to contact the Vernon RCMP. The local detachment seized a scooter following an unusual incident Nov. 7 at a Vernon medical supply store at around 4:30 p.m. “Two men and a woman were in the store speaking to store employees about a blue Gio electric scooter,” said RCMP spokesperson Gord Molendyk. “They said the battery had died and it needed charging.” When the employee started to ask questions a bit further, the three people took off on 30th Avenue The employee reported the three suspicious people to the Vernon detachment. Patrols were made for the suspects but they could not be located. It appears there is no vehicle identification number or model number left on the scooter, and Molendyk said it also appears that there has been some tampering with the ignition. “The keys were stuck in the lock of the battery compartment. However, the battery was missing,” he said. Police have seized the scooter which, they feel, has likely been stolen and continue to investigate further. If you have had your scooter stolen lately, it’s at the Vernon-North Okanagan detachment. Phone 250-545-7171 to identify and claim it.

Under the direction of a registered forestry professional, utilizing forestry sciences and industry best practices, a Lumby contractor is now logging and delivering logs to a number of small to large mill operations.

Vernon district gets new bus Morning Star Staff
The provincial government is providing $9 million for 22 school districts to purchase a total of 76 new buses. Among them is $146,293 for one bus for the Vernon School District. This is the fourth year that the Ministry of Education has worked with the Association of School Transportation Services of B.C. to procure buses using the standing
offer pricing model, which achieves the best possible pricing. Previously, school districts negotiated with bus providers individually. “These new buses will provide safe, comfortable and efficient transportation for students,” said Education Minister Peter Fassbender. “At the same time, school districts benefit, because with the shared procurement model they get more buses for less money.”

wo-storey homes, square metre for square metre, provide the most living space on a property, and this three-bedroom family home is no exception. Entry is through a covered porch with a veranda to the left. Once in the foyer, double doors open to a den, with the U-shaped staircase to the second floor beyond. A window above the stairwell will let in lots of natural light. The great room, separated from the foyer by an archway, has a lofty sloped ceiling that is open to the floor above. A gas fireplace is flanked by entertainment units, and large windows look onto a covered patio at the back of the home. From the dining area, access to the covered deck is easy, through sliding glass doors. A prep island divides the kitchen from the dining area, which has large windows overlooking the back garden. Natural light will enter the kitchen through windows over the double sink, which is set into a corner at an angle. The U-shaped counter configuration will provide adequate working space as well as efficiency. A walk-in pantry will offer extra storage space. Across from the powder room located near the foyer is a handy coat closet. Another closet is included in the laundry room, which has access to the double garage, large enough to include a workshop. Upstairs, the master suite looks out to the back garden. The generous en-suite includes a soaker tub as well as double basins and a shower stall. The walk-in closet will be roomy enough for a couple’s clothing and accessories. The second and third bedrooms share a three-

Panthers take Fulton gold Morning Star Staff
GRAEME CORBETT/MORNING STAR
Liam Coughlin (front) of the Vernon Vipers fights off a check from Ross Heidt of the Salmon Arm Silverbacks in B.C. Hockey League play Saturday night at Kal Tire Place. The teams tied 3-3 in double overtime.
Vipers alone in third
Todosychuk returns to crease and smothers Smokies Black Press Sports
Running on fumes after a hectic schedule, the Vernon Vipers didn’t do anything fancy in a 3-0 B.C. Hockey League win over the Trail Smoke Eaters Sunday afternoon before 830 fans at Cominco Arena. Goalie Danny Todosychuk, who missed six games after being punished after a brawl Oct. 18 in West Kelowna, improved to 4-1 with a 1.93 GAA. He turned aside 28 shots for his second shutout of the season for first star honours. Anthony Latina’s second-period breakaway goal was the winner as the Vipers went to 10-6-1-1, good for third place in the Interior Division. The Smokies dropped their fourth consecutive game and fell to sixth at 8-9, three points behind the Salmon Arm Silverbacks, who the Vipers tied 3-3 in double overtime Saturday night. Thomas Aldworth sprung Latina in all alone on Smokie goalie Brett Clark, and the Toronto native made no mistake
as he deked to his backhand and slipped the puck through Clark’s pads to put the Vipers up 1-0 less than five minutes into the middle frame. Latina has nine snipes. It was the fourth game in five days for the Vipers, in which they took five of a possible eight points. “It was the first time we’ve done it, I mean we played three games in two-anda-half days in three cities so the message that we sent to the kids was just play simple,” said Viper head coach Mark Ferner. “It’s the hardest thing to get young guys to do is just get pucks out, and get pucks deep, but I thought as the third period rolled around we were doing a little more of that, so I’m certainly proud of our group today.” The Vipers took a 2-0 lead when Liam Coughlin sent a hard pass from the slot to Luke Voltin who tipped it over the glove of Clark for his third goal of the seaso, with 4:47 to play in the second period. Coughlin netted his second point of
the night and 14th of the season with seven minutes to play in the third period. With the Vipers shorthanded, Coughlin carried the puck into the offensive zone, made a couple of slick moves around two Trail defenders, then dropped it to Mitch Meek in the slot. Meek. a d-man, wired it low blocker side for his third of the year. “We’re not at the point we were last year, we got the guys, but I don’t know why but things aren’t clicking,” said Smoke Eater assistant coach Craig Clare. “They (Vipers) play a simple game, and we seem to be trying to overthink things; plays that we made, we can’t make them right now, so it’s up to us to battle through it I guess.” Despite the loss, Clark had another strong game in net with 30 saves, good for third star. The Grande Prairie native was pressed into action Friday night against Prince George when veteran Adam Todd left the game after taking an awkward hit to the head.

The VSS Panthers stopped the Mt. Boucherie Bears of West Kelowna 2-0 (25-15 25-18) in Saturday’s final of the Fulton Maroons Senior Girls Volleyball Tournament. Tanner Lorenson of the AAA Panthers was named MVP of the eight-team affair. Jordan Korol of VSS made the all-star team along with Nazarene Wurz and Brittany Skrenek of Fulton, Julia Kemper of the Kalamalka Lakers, Amanda Daley of the Valleyview Vikings (Kamloops) and Kayla Sullivan of Mt. Boucherie. “VSS was definitely the favourite going in to the tournament (ranked in the top-four AAA provincially all season long) but there were some teams challenging throughout but the solid VSS attack and defence was too strong for AAAA Mt. Boucherie Bears in the end,” said Fulton coach Sharon Shaigec. The Lakers finished third by sweeping Valleyview 25-21, 25-17 after knocking out Fulton 25-15, 29-27 in the quarterfinals. “It was definitely a disappointing loss to Kal in the quarterfinals,” said Shaigec. “We got into trouble on serve receive and we missed too many serves. Kal controlled the match from beginning to end so full credit goes to their effort to win the match.” VSS brushed back the Lakers 25-15, 25-18, while Mt. Boucherie bounced Valleyview 2-1 (25-17, 22-25, 16-14) in the semifinals. The Panthers earlier dispatched the NorKam Saints 25-12, 25-23, while the Bears stuffed Sa-Hali Sabres of Kamloops 25-18, 26-22 in the quarters. In consolation play, Fulton finished fifth by defeating Sahali 25-18, 25-22. The Maroons host the AA Okanagan Valley Championships starting Friday. The finals go Saturday at 2 p.m. with one berth available to the provincials. Fulton goes into the Valleys ranked No. 1 out of the North Zone. The Maroons open against the George Elliot Coyotes of Winfield Friday at 1:45 p.m. Kal is second-seeded in the North and will battle the No. 3 Revelstoke Avalanche at 12:30 p.m. The Princess Margaret Mustangs of Penticton are rated first in the South Central Zone, while the Westsyde Whundas of Kamloops are tops in the West. The Mustangs go up against the North’s fourthseeded Pleasant Valley Saints of Armstrong at 12:30, while the Whundas tangle with the Coyotes at 1:45. If the third place team has not played the second place finisher at the conclusion of the Valleys, they may challenge them Monday.

Schamerhorn salvages 3-3 draw Knights’ skid Continued from A25
“I just think we got outworked out there, I mean we had a day’s rest, they didn’t, and they just worked harder than us,” said Clark. The Vipers’ lone stumble in the last week was a 2-1 loss to Salmon Arm on Friday night in the Shuswap. For Ferner, who coached the Vipers for the 2007-08 and 2009-10 seasons and rejoined the team two games into this season, adjustments are still being made as he becomes more familiar with the team and its players. “It’s been a learning curve for the players and for myself as well, so it’s early and we’re just trying to identify the type of personnel we have, and put a foundation in place that’s going to give us success. I feel we take a couple steps forward then take a step back, but like I said, this is a tough building and a good hockey team in Trail so we’re excited about the two points today.” Trail’s offence will be bolstered by the return of high-scoring forward Dallas Calvin this weekend. The former Viper has played just four games due to illness. Meanwhile, Coughlin scored on a powerplay two minutes into the third period to help the Vipers salvage the tie with the Silverbacks in front of 2,000 fans at Kal Tire Place. Playing in front of their families for parents’ weekend, the Snakes turned in a much better effort than the one they put forth in Friday’s 2-1 loss at the Shaw Centre. “It’s nice to at least get a point,” said Vipers’ assistant coach Eric Godard. “We came out strong, but that’s one thing we need
to work on is to be more consistent. “They got challenged (by the coaching staff) and they came out with a better attitude and went out and worked harder. It’s just another stepping stone to getting to a 60-minute game.” Latina, clicking on a man advantage 1:17 into the game, and Aldworth, wiring one in off the post and past netminder Angus Redmond midway Schamerhorn through period one, accounted for the rest of Vernon’s offence. The ‘Backs got one snipe from ex-Viper Logan Mick just over two minutes after Latina’s goal. The visitors took the lead with second-period markers from Karl El-Mir and Carson Bolduc, on the powerplay. This weekend was the first time former Viper Ryley Booth, an Armstrong native, faced his former team. “I was so excited. It’s always fun to play guys you know,” smiled the lanky blueliner. “We came in a little shaky in the first period but found our stride in the second.” Salmon Arm head coach Brandon West knew Vernon would come out with more gusto after Friday’s game. “We knew we were going to have to keep it real simple in the first period and I thought we didn’t give up a whole lot,” said West. “We’re really happy with our weekend, get-
ting three of four (points) from a division rival. That’s very rewarding for our group.” Coughlin forced overtime by burying his second attempt on Redmond’s doorstep after corralling the rebound off Luke Shiplo’s point shot. Said Shiplo: “That was big to get momentum back in the third there. We would have liked to come out with a win, but from last night to tonight we played a lot better.” Redmond recorded 33 stops for Salmon Arm. Aside from Mick’s goal, a five-hole snipe from out wide, netminder Jarrod Schamerhorn was rock-steady in earning third star for the Vipers with 38 saves. In double-OT, he calmly denied Josh Blanchard on a breakaway, turned aside Ross Heidt on an odd-man rush and robbed Chase Priskie point blank to preserve the tie.

The North Okanagan Knights were hoping a road trip to 100 Mile House Tuesday night may change their misfortunes. The Knights faced the Wranglers having lost eight straight games in the Kootenay International Junior Hockey League. The Summerland Steam dispatched the Knights 4-1 in a Sunday matinee at Nor-Val Sports Centre in Armstrong. All the scoring came in the third period with Lathan McKinney netting the winner 6:15 into the session. Coletone Fisher made it 2-0 two minutes later before Zach Andrusiak countered for the Knights 48 seconds later, assists going to Austin Fournier and Jordan Passmore. Andrusiak took game star. Paulsen Lautard put Summerland up 30 with 7:22 remaining. Vernon product Cole Woodliffe and McKinney earned helpers. Nelson Hurry, on a solo effort, completed the offence with 4:41 left. The Steam improved to 11-7-0-1, good for third place in the Okanagan Division, one point back of the Princeton Posse. The Knights are 2-16-1-2, last in the division and overall. North Okanagan visits the 3-14-0-4 Columbia Valley Rockies Friday night and tangle with the 10-10-0-2 Golden Rockets Saturday night. The Knights have counted a league-low 35 goals in 21 games.

Sports Silvertips fall to Cougars Continued from A27
The Salmon Arm Tips (sponsored by Armstrong Co-Op) lost 2-1 to the Prince George Cougars in Sunday’s Midget A Girls consolation final of the Four Nations Cup in Kamloops. Prince George opened the scoring late in the first, but Taylor Vandale of Vernon equalized midway through the second when she fired a onetimer far side past the goalie. Prince George scored early in the third and the Tips missing on several point-blank chances and breakaways to level the score. Earlier, the Tips fell 5-2 to the North Shore Avalanche with Cassidy Marshall (Armstrong) banging home a rebound and Brooke Miller (Salmon Arm) also scoring. Bailey Berndt of Vernon was solid in net. Game 2 saw a grudge match with Terrace who had handed the Tips a tough loss earlier in the season. The Tips fell behind 2-0 in the first but battled their way back with goals from Caitlyn Marshall (Armstrong), on a spectacular solo rush, and Miller, who popped in another Hailey Haskell (Salmon Arm) rebound to tie the game 2-2 with 50 seconds to play. The Tips then lost 4-0 to North Island with Ava Wutke (Salmon Arm) and Tareyn Hanson (Enderby) enjoying their best games of the season. “This was a real improvement for us,” said Tips’ head coach Rob Bauml, of Vernon. “Our team is coming together and these results are much better than games against these same teams in a tournament held in Kelowna earlier in the year. We had a chance to win all of these games, but need to find a way to score.” Genevieve Lacasse stopped Hilary Knight in a shootout to secure a 3-2
win for Canada over the U.S. in the Four Nations Cup gold-medal game before 5,800 fans Saturday night at Interior Savings Centre. Brianne Jenner’s highlight-reel shootout goal was the winner in the women’s final. The Valley Wood Remanufacturing Atom A Vipers dropped a pair of league games. On Saturday, the Vipers dropped a lacklustre 7-2 decision to the Kelowna Jr. Rockets. Austin Roest provided a pair of unassisted markers in support of Colten Colmorgen. The Valley Wood draw lost 3-2 to the Kamloops Ice Hawks Sunday. Jace Weir, with a booming slapper from just inside the blue line, and Cash Anderson had the goals. John Spraggs and Bennet Kuhnlein picked up helpers in support of Austin Seibel. “The boys struggled with consistency on Saturday,” said Valley Wood coach Trevor Seibel. “We just couldn’t seem to get any flow going. On Sunday, it took the boys 40 minutes to wake up. Our goalie (Seibel) made several key saves early, including stopping three breakaways, to keep it close. We dominated the third period and thought we had tied the game late but the ref waved off the goal indicating he didn’t see the puck go in.” Next up for the Vipers is another home contest this weekend against West Kelowna. The H&L Glass Atom Tier 2 Vipers brushed back Kamloops 5-4 Sunday at Priest Valley Arena. Deagan McMillan led the Vipers with two goals while JJ Milne, Nolan Thomas and Colby Restiaux added singles. Zac Milne chipped in with two assists for 2-1 Vipers.

The Vernon Ice Breakers extended their Under 10 girls ringette winning streak to six games by icing host Kelowna 13-6 Sunday. The Kelowna girls came out flying with three straight goals. Vernon responded with four unanswered snipes, including three from Makenna Jackson. Kelowna levelled the score with 1:38 left in the first half. Vernon, however, reeled off six goals before Kelowna got their next one. It was 10-5 with nine minutes remaining. The Ice Breakers not only played incredible offence but defensively they were tough. And when they did get beat, Kennedy Jackson was amazing in goal making save after save. The game MVP was Kristen Francks who continually shut down Kelowna’s attacks and had a hat-trick herself. The U10 Vernon Strikers fought hard and brushed back the Westside Wildfires 6-3 in other Sunday action. Sierra Fernley was

Council were given two options by staff: the first is to close Dec. 24 and reopen Friday, Jan. 2, or close Dec. 25 and
reopen Monday, Jan. 5. “We’re recommending the first option, which is reopening Jan. 2 as we vote with our neighbour and the regional district provides our planning services,” said Cindy Graves, deputy corporate officer for the township. “We’d like to give our staff a bit of a break and be consistent with the
other jurisdictions.” Council voted unanimously with the first option. Snow plowing will be maintained by the public works department throughout the holiday closure. Citizens will be able to report emergency situations over the closure by calling 250-5463013. Calls will be for-
warded to the appropriate personnel through

Moderately Confused
Bridge by Phillip Alder THERE ARE EXCEPTIONS TO THE NORMAL PLAY Douglas Adams, an Englishman who wrote the “Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy” trilogy in four books, said, “Nothing travels faster than light, with the possible exception of bad news, which follows its own rules.” Bridge has a variety of rules, most of which having exceptions. For example, suppose you are faced with A-J-9-5-4 in the dummy opposite Q-10-8-7 in your hand. How would you normally play the suit? Right - you would take the finesse. In theory, 50 percent of the time you will get five tricks. To try to drop a singleton king offside has only about a six percent chance of success. But why might you
lead the queen from your hand and, after lefty plays low, put up dummy’s ace? Now look at the NorthSouth hands in today’s deal. South is in three no-trump. West leads a fourth-highest heart five: three, queen, king. How should declarer continue? South starts with seven top tricks: three spades, one heart (first trick), one diamond and two clubs. It looks obvious to take the diamond finesse at trick two, but that does not work well here. East wins with his king and returns the heart 10 (high from a remaining doubleton). The defenders take four heart tricks for down one. Declarer should realize that if West has the diamond king, the contract is always safe.
South’s remaining heart jacksix is a stopper with West on lead. So declarer should lead his diamond queen to tempt West to cover with the king if he has it, then rise with dummy’s ace. When the king drops, South takes 11 tricks. It is a textbook avoidance play.
