Pennies for Agur Lake CampWondering what to do with those jars of pennies before they become obsolete? You can donate them to Agur Lake Camp. You can drop them into this little house located in the reception area of Summerland Credit Union, where they are being collected to help build the camp. Special needs campers and their families will be using the camp, located in the mountains west of Summerland.

Council applies for funding to set up stations for electric vehicles

by John Arendt

The municipality is applying for fund-ing which, if approved, would provide electric vehicle charging stations in the community.

The stations, proposed for Wharton Street and

Rotary Beach, would allow owners of electric vehicles the opportunity to charge their vehicles in Summerland.

The province is offer-ing $2.7 million to build up a network of up to 570 electric charging stations across the province.

The funding, if approved, would cover three-quarters of the cost to purchase and install the stations, to a maximum of $4,000.

The funding is for Level 2 charging stations. Level 2 stations use a dedicated 240-volt current and can recharge the battery of an electric vehicle in six to eight hours or the bat-tery of a hybrid-electric vehicle in three to four hours.

The cost of a station is estimated at $1,700 to $2,300.

Coun. Lloyd Christo-pherson said the stations would provide an import-

ant service for those with electric cars.

“With the charging stations, we’ll be on the grid,” he said.

If the funding is approved, the station must be installed by March 31, 2013. It must be kept in service for at least five years. The munici-pality would be required to use standard signage and share data on energy consumption.

The locations of the sta-

tions would be available on online maps or mobile applications.

Coun. Bruce Hallquist said a previous municipal council had considered introducing electric carts for in-town transporta-tion.

The resolution to approve the grant appli-cation for the stations was carried unanimously. Coun. Orv Robson was not present at the meet-ing.

Charging stations sought

Mischief calls show increaseThe number of mis-

chief complaints in Sum-merland rose in the first quarter of the year as a result of one busy week-end in February.

Sgt. Mona Kauffeld said there were 16 reports of vehicles damaged in the areas of Brown Street, Jubilee Road, Main Street and Victoria Road over-night on Feb. 18 and 19.

These damages brought the number of mischief complaints up to 36 for the first quarter of the year. In the same period in 2011, there were 27 mischief complaints.

Thefts from vehicles and vehicle thefts were also up significantly when compared with last year’s figures.

There were nine thefts

from vehicles reported, up from five in the first three months of 2011.

Police were also called to four vehicle thefts, up from one in the first quar-ter of 2011.

Kauffeld said the vehicle theft and theft from vehicle figures, while higher than last year, are still below the four-year averages.

Police also investigated 11 drug files, two of them involving marijuana pro-duction.

In another incident, on Jan 30, police were called to Pharmasave when a parcel at the Canada Post counter smelled like marijuana.

Police searched the sender’s home and seized 1,200 grams of “shake”

marijuana and parapher-nalia.

In the first quarter of 2012, police issued two 90-day roadside prohibi-tions, four 24-hour pro-hibitions for alcohol use and three 24-hour pro-hibitions for drug use. One driver was charged with impaired driving or related offences under the Criminal Code.

Barlee had varied careerHistorian N.L.

(Bill) Barlee, a former Summerland resident whose varied career included politics, publishing and pla-cer mining, died June 14.

Born in 1932 in Grand Forks, he taught high school in Penticton before co-founding the West-ern Advertiser, which became today’s Pen-ticton Western News.

Barlee lived in the Happy Valley area of Summerland and had an antique store downtown.

He was elected to the Legislative Assembly of British

C o l u m -bia as a New D e m o -crat in 1988. He served as Minister of Agri-c u l t u r e , Fisheries and Food from 1991 until 1993 and then as Minister of Small Business, Tourism and Culture from 1993 until 1996.

Barlee was known for his television show on the his-tory of Canada West which he co-hosted with Mike Roberts. This award-winning

television series Gold Trails and Ghost Towns, ran from 1986 to 1996 on five differ-ent networks nation-wide and is still seen in reruns.

He published a his-tory magazine Canada West, and his books included two best-sellers: Gold Creeks and Ghost Towns and the Guide to Goldpan-ning.

Over his life, he collected Old West artifacts.

Parts of the Barlee collection, valued at more than $1 million, have been placed on display in the Canadian Museum

of Civilization in Ottawa as well as in

museums around the country.

Donation for Agur Lake campBarb Hatton from Agur Lake, was presented with a cheque of $200 that was raised by clients and staff from Van Horne (Communitas Supportive Care Society).

VICTORIA – You probably didn’t hear this on TV, the per-centage of Canadians deemed “low income” went down slightly in 2010, according to the latest Statistics Canada analysis.

This news was delivered in the annual “Income of C a n a d i a n s ” report last week. The share of people who fall below the federal L o w - I n c o m e Cut-Off (LICO) went from 9.5 per cent to 9.0.

The CBC couldn’t bring itself to admit any actual improvement, reporting on its website that the number of people with “low income” was about three mil-lion, “virtually unchanged from 2009.” Other media outlets fol-lowed the unwritten rule that nothing remotely positive must be presented as news, particu-larly if it reflects positively on a right-wing government.

This information likely won’t have any effect on the political discussion about “poverty” in B.C. The LICO survey will con-tinue to be used as a measure of absolute poverty, despite the fact that it isn’t. It’s a relative measure that will always desig-nate the same share of people at the low end of the scale.

BC Stats, the provin-cial equivalent of the federal agency, explained this problem in a special report last year.

“To illustrate,” the report said, “take a hypothetical future

Canada where every citizen earns no less than $100,000 (and assume there has not been ram-pant inflation in the meantime, such that buying power is not dissimilar to what exists today) and millionaires are common.

“In that kind of Canada, those at the low end of the income scale (that is, those earn-ing ‘merely’ $100,000) would be considered poor if LICOs were used as a measure of poverty.”

Math aside, that’s the alleged “poverty line” routinely cited

by the usual media authorities, like B.C. Federation of Labour president Jim Sinclair.

Sinclair campaigned for years to get the B.C. government to raise the minimum wage from $8 to $10 an hour. They did, in three increments, and on May 1 it increased to $10.25 an hour. As soon as the series of three increases was announced last November, Sinclair called a news conference to announce it’s not enough.

To get to the LICO level, the minimum wage should be $11.50 an hour, Sinclair said. Of course, if B.C. businesses pon-ied up for that, the goalposts would shift again and the same proportion of “poverty” would magically still exist.

The B.C. NDP government-in-waiting continues to demand an “action plan” on poverty, with annual goals. All the pro-gressive provinces have one,

which I guess is why poverty is all but eradicated in enlight-ened places like Manitoba.

There are signs of the real-ity behind this political smoke-screen. Here’s one.

For what may be the first time in history, we now have a North American society where one of the most reliable indicators of poverty is obesity. This often gets explained away with a popular theory that poor people are somehow forced to eat fast food and drink pop because

they can’t afford healthy food.People who advance this

theory presumably don’t do much grocery shopping. There are plenty of processed, sugary, fat-laden choices at the super-market too. But there is also whole wheat bread, rice and fresh or frozen vegetables that are as cheap as anywhere in the world.

Given basic cooking skills and some effort, it’s easy to demon-strate which diet is cheaper as well as healthier. Most immi-grants know this. Which diet you choose isn’t a function of money, but rather one of educa-tion and self-discipline.

There is genuine poverty in our society. One of the things that’s needed is a useful way to define it.

SUMMERLAND REVIEWA PART OF THE COMMUNITY SINCE 1908 WWW.SUMMERLANDREVIEW.COM

With the Canada Day weekend approaching, we will see plenty of motorists on the roads in the days ahead.

Unfortunate-ly, some who are driving large motor-homes or towing fifth-wheel trailers are not com-fortable with such big vehicles.

Putting such vehicles onto busy, congested highways can have serious consequences.

This weekend and throughout the summer tourist season, please drive carefully. Don’t let a vehicle accident mar your summer.

Since 1958, the members of the Summerland Camera Club have promoted photography in Summerland.

The club, which has now d i s b a n d e d , has helped to raise the level of photographic quality.

We thank the members of the Summerland Camera Club for their dedication to photography and we hope others will step forward to help promote good photography in the future.

ourpickThe quest

for powerIf a funding application is

approved, Summerland will soon have charging stations for electric vehicles.

The three stations are part of a province-wide initiative to set up charging stations across the province.

For drivers of electric vehicles and hybrid-electric vehicles, charging stations are as important as fuel stations for drivers of conventional internal combustion vehicles.

With a network of char-ging stations in place, it begins to make sense to use electric vehicles for transportation, not just in town but on longer trips as well.

Charging an electric vehicle at one of the proposed sta-tions would take six to eight hours, while charging a hybrid-electric vehicle would take three to four hours.

With this wait time, vis-itors in need of recharging would be out in the com-munity while waiting for their vehicles to recharge. This could provide some good opportunities for businesses to cater to the needs of wait-ing motorists.

The charging stations also make sense for the longer term.

While Canada has the third largest proven oil reserves in the world, the costs of pumping and refining that oil are increasing. Customers feel these increases at the pumps.

As gasoline and diesel fuel prices continue to increase, electric vehicles and electric-hybrid will become more appealing.

And in British Columbia, with a good hydroelectric generating system in place, electric cars are a cleaner form of transportation than conventional internal com-bustion engines.

While electric vehicles have not yet reached mainstream popularity, it is important to set up the services and char-ging stations for them now.

The sooner Summerland can become part of the char-ging grid the better for elec-tric vehicle owners and for our community.

Dear Editor:With respect to the

petition described in last week’s Review calling for the muni-cipality to set up a

sani-dump facility for RV operators to dump their sew-age, could someone tell me, please, what the case is for public

expenditure on such a facility?

Clearly, it would be of benefit to RV users and, if so, let them pay for it directly as

they will have to do in a commercial facil-ity.

If the owners of tourist facilities see the need for such an operation, they, too, could arrange to finance it.

But to expend pub-lic funds on such a project is well beyond the responsibility of government, local or otherwise.

There are lots of

important expendi-tures justifying the use of public funds: roads, schools, parks and even public administration come to mind.

What we do not need is yet another public expenditure designed to benefit a special interest group at the expense of tax-payers generally.

Mark R. DanielsSummerland

Public funds for sani dump questioned

Water waste must be addressedDear Editor:Most of the Oka-

nagan has certainly been blessed with an adequate amount of rain this year, or so it seems.

Residents of Sum-

merland were given orders to restrict their watering of lawns and gardens and put on notice that we will be getting a “test” billing for water usage for the month of June.

I think we’ll all pass with flying col-ors since Mother Nature has been so kind as to do our watering for us.

However, I have been told by a local

hair stylist that when he takes his dog for a walk along the per-iphery of some of our municipal parks as well as the school grounds early in the morning, that the

irrigations systems are going full blast, and were probably on most of the night. That’s a lot of unneces-sary waste of water, since they probably use more in one night

than a resident does all season long.

Is the municipal-ity exempt from water restrictions? When our hair stylist attempted to get an answer to that ques-

tion from one of our councillors, appar-ently he was given the runaround.

What do you say, mayor?

Frank MartensSummerland

Sani-dump reasoning questioned

Dear Editor:I have just read

the front page of this week’s paper and am shocked and dis-mayed at the excuses put forth by our town leaders.

I’m trying to fig-ure out how a sani-dump would affect a bird sanctuary that is in the bushes quite some distance from the road.

People who use the dump facilities are not out to hurt any one, especially birds. It is not a place people like to hang out and cause prob-lems.

If it was built next to the existing road, then there would not be any problems with the sanctuary.

The other thing is the cost. I would like to see where they get

this $100,000 figure from.

I can’t see it. Pos-sibly put it out for tender. I have been to many sani-stations and not seen a staff-ing problem; most of them are on the honor system.

Signage takes care of a lot. It would tell people to pay at the campground for instance.

The real positive thing that would come from having our own sani-dump is that it helps keep tourists here to spend their money and enjoy what we have to offer in this town.

Also the site would be the best because it is next to the munici-pal campground.

Bob HerbertSummerland

Grounds at signs must be cleaned

Dear Editor:At each end of our

city, we have signs saying you are in Summerland.

Wow, the signs are great but the grounds surrounding them are disgraceful. Nothing but a pile of weeds. Let’s get this cleaned up. Forget plants, bushes or whatever and finish it off with some nice stone or brick work that would be low maintenance

and permanent.I have been hopeful

this might have been cleaned up in the last two years. What’s the holdup, city hall? We want our town to look great and for the most part it looks fan-tastic.

Let’s get these signs in Trout Creek and the north end of town more attractive, ASAP.

Respect must be shown at cemeteryDear Editor:I have just learned

of the pillage and desecration of the Canyon View Cem-etery carried out by the municipality of Summerland after revisions were made to local bylaws in 2007. I am appalled over the thoughtless and careless disregard for our cemetery.

I have not lived in Summerland for quite a while but my parents, brother-in-law, uncle, cousin, godmother, friends and neighbours are buried there.

My brother-in-law and cousin were buried in 2008, after these revised bylaws were put into effect.

Nothing was

relayed to us regarding these chan-ges.

I would think that if the revised bylaws were to be followed, the appropriate noti-fication to the fam-ilies at the time of interment would be fitting.

The cemetery was a peaceful and sacred ground where people

came to show their love and respect. It’s a place that should evoke reverence.

Now that the bylaws are enforced, the cemetery looks unloved and forgot-ten. Is this the way we want to acknowledge our loved ones?

Before my mother passed away in 1995, she had a statue of

the Madonna with a little girl by her side. This statue was in her garden, so when she passed, my sister took the statue and placed it on my par-ents’ grave site, on the concrete. It was there for 17 years until the cleanup crew removed it, and since then it has been missing.

My brother-in-law had solar flower lights on his head-stone, placed by his son. They too are mis-sing.

If anyone knows the whereabouts of these items, please call 250-442-5999. He would really like them back.

Mayor Perrino, the buck stops at your

desk. The bylaws need to

be revisited and chan-ges made to allow families like ours to demonstrate the love and reverence we have for our family members.

Until then, our heartache will not go away.

Area artists to show paintingsDear Editor:It is an utter, com-

plete, and total dis-grace that some per-son or other should remove the prized items laid by the liv-ing in loving memory of the dead.

An even greater disgrace that the person should be an

employee of our own municipality.

My wife and I will take up residence in that cemetery in the not too distant future. Will we be able to trust the municipality to allow us to rest in peace?

The Law Societies of B.C., Alberta, Saskatchewan

and Manitoba have agreed to allow Lawyers

from those provinces to practice law throughout

Western Canada. For B.C. residents what this

means is that your local Lawyer will be able to

assist you with a legal problem or concern arising

in any of the other listed provinces. Prior to this

new development jurisdictional restrictions were

in place making interprovincial practice very

diffi cult or onerous.

While many Lawyers welcome the opportunity for

expanded markets some may feel uncomfortable

with practicing in a jurisdiction unfamiliar to

them. Expertise with the laws of the province in

which the case is being heard will still be a very

important consideration.

COUNCIL REPORT

S u m m e r l a n d Health Care Aux-iliary has donated $6,000 for the reno-vation of a palliative room at Dr. Andrew Pavilion.

This room is pro-vided for residents as they are in the final stages of their life so that family and friends can gather and stay close.

Katalin Simon, Nurse Manager for

Dr. Andrew Pavilion, said that the Sum-merland Health Care Auxiliary’s generous donations are always based on their phil-osophy of helping to provide extra comfort and care for the resi-dents.

“On behalf of the residents, their fam-ilies and the staff, gratitude for this gift cannot be expressed enough to the Sum-

merland Health Care Auxiliary.”

Janice Perrino, Executive Director of the South Okanagan Similkameen Med-ical Foundation, said, “We often think of them purchasing the large pieces of equip-ment but this project is special; it is all about patient com-forts, when patients and their families need it the most.”

Teen donates babysitting earningsSylvia Mott of

Summerland has donated $100 of her babysitting earnings to Agur Lake Camp because of her desire to help special needs children. Sylvia, who is 14-years-old and a student at Summer-land Middle School, became interested in helping Special Edu-cation students in her school when she was in Grade 6.

The first year she formed a friendship with a girl in her class who had Down’s Syndrome.

“We played some games and I was her partner for some of the games. I thought it was really neat to help her out. It was lots of fun,” Mott said.

The next year she asked the Special Education teacher in her school if she could help in some

way. The teacher con-nected her with Ben Stickney who has mobility and speech challenges, and she befriended him. Ben is 14 years old and will be starting high school this fall.

“It’s really neat get-ting to know him as a person,” said Mott.

“When he sees me he puts his hand out to give me a high five. He had this board with wheels on it that he uses to scoot around. One day when he was on it I got in his wheel-chair to play tag with him.”

Thora Delaquis, Learning Support Teacher at Summer-land Middle School explained that at least 40 students at her school take on similar

helping roles.“The best service

the helper students provide is to be friend-ly and to bring some fun into the lives of those who have lim-ited options.”

“What we have found is that our spe-cial needs students benefit greatly from these interactions, but our students in the regular stream also benefit from the care-giver role. The inter-actions of those like Sylvia, have made our school commun-ity more inclusive and a richer place for our daily living and learning,” she said.

About her choice of Agur Lake Camp for her donation Mott said, “I thought Agur Lake was a great choice because I’m

interested in help-ing people with dis-abilities. I went on the website, and then contacted Barb to ask how to donate to the camp.”

Barb Hatton is a past-president of ALCS.

Mott earns money through baby-sitting. She raised enough to send herself to a camp of her choice. But she didn’t want to stop there.

She wanted spe-cial needs children to have a camp experi-ence also. Agur Lake camp is a wilderness camp 15 kilometres west of Summer-land.

It will be opening soon and will provide camp facilities for families with a spe-cial needs member.

Help for Agur Lake CampSylvia Mott donated $100 of her babysitting earnings to help Agur Lake Camp. Mott has worked with Ben Stickney, 14, who has mobility and speech challenges.

Church service in parkSummerland United Church members enjoyed a service in Memorial Park on a recent Sunday. Theme for the service was Praying in the Park. Seen here are church members enjoying refreshments after the service. Minister David Sparks conducted the service. Murray Scheidl led the pastoral prayers and the Church Guitar Group provided music. Also during the service Bev Smith & Carol Bubb thanked David Sparks and Kathy McMillan for their service to the church and community for the past several months.

The Summerland Fruit Tree Project

is organized by the Summerland Asset

Development Initia-tive (SADI) to con-

nect people who have excess fruit from their

backyard fruit trees with community vol-

unteers who have the time and energy to harvest it.

The purpose of this initiative is to pick fruit that might otherwise go to waste and donate it to citizens who are unable to enjoy the luxury of fresh local fruit.

In previous years, SADI has donated fresh fruit to the Sum-merland Food Bank, Summerland Boys and Girls Club, Pen-ticton First Nations Reserve, South Okanagan Women In Need Society, Soupeteria, the Can-adian Mental Health Association’s Unity House and other organizations.

The project bene-fits not only the owners of the trees and the recipients of the fruit, but also the volunteers who assist each year in making this a successful pro-ject.

Volunteers gain valuable work experi-ence in a positive environment.

The SADI program

for young people embraces 40 develop-mental assets, which include support sys-tems, empowerment, commitment to learn-ing and positive val-ues.

Volunteers able to take pride in knowing they are contribut-ing to their commun-ity while having the opportunity to meet people of all ages and have fun at the same time.

There are a num-ber of ways that com-munity members can get involved: by regis-tering their fruit trees, becoming a volunteer picker or participat-ing in a fruit preserv-ing workshop.

The success of this annual project is a result of the hard work of volun-teers and generous donations from fruit tree and business owners.

To register your fruit tree or volunteer, contact Nicole Kurtz at SADI at (250) 494-9722 or by email at sadisummer@shaw.ca.

Excellent news – and well-done, Canada! The most recent data from Statistics Canada shows that the smoking rate is the lowest ever recorded. The Canadian Tobacco Use Monitoring Survey started in 1999, at which time the smoking rate was 25%. The latest report was down to 17% - with the most signifi cant reduction noted in the teen age group. This is encouraging as this is the group seen as key in the fi ght against smoking.

Government efforts to reduce smoking through public bans are effective. Scotland instituted a smoking ban in 2006 and already they are seeing the benefi ts. Data collected from maternity hospitals between 1996 and 2009 showed the number of pre-term babies dropped by 10% and low birthweight babies is down 5%. Smoking mothers are down from 25.4% to 18.8%. Another piece of evidence for the potential of tobacco control legislation.

The negative effects of smoking are well known – lung cancer, respiratory disease, cardiovascular disease. Now add cognitive decline. According to a study out of Britain, a 50-year old male smoker has the mental decline of a 60-year old who has never smoked, especially in an area termed “executive function.” The good news, long-term ex-smokers did not show a faster decline in brain functions or cognitive abilities.

Psoriasis is a skin condition which causes itchy and/or painful thick, scaly patches of reddened or whitened skin – usually on the elbows or knees, but often the hands too. Research out of Harvard Medical School has found that the risk of developing psoriasis is close to double for people who smoke. It makes sense. Psoriasis is an infl ammatory condition and smoking promotes tissue infl ammation. Just one more reason to quit.

Many of our pharmacists are trained smoking cessation coaches – and all of our pharmacists can help you quit. Is it time to try?

Health Matters

Playground funding for Trout CreekSchool District 67 Okanagan Skaha has received $25,000 in the final phase of funding for the repair, improvement and replacement of the playground at Trout Creek Elementary School. Bill Barisoff, MLA for Okanagan Skaha, announced the funding last week, saying, “A good playground is a vital part of every elementary student’s day. They need a place to have fun and burn off some of that excess energy. Not just because it’s healthier, but it makes them better students.‚Äù It’s part of $3.3 million in playground funding is being provided for 80 schools across all 60 school districts and is the final phase of an $8 million playground funding commitment for elementary and middle schools in British Columbia. Under the second phase, 106 Parent Advisory Councils in 34 school districts are being reimbursed over $2.4 million for the purchase of new playground equipment. Pictured in the back row are, left to right, School Board Chairman Ginny Manning, Barisoff, Summerland School Trustee Linda Van Alphen, District Director of Facilities Doug Gorcak and Trout Creek Principal Jeff Redden. In the front row are Trout Creek students Jaeda Yorkin, grade 5; Asha Cave, Grade 2, MacKenzie Stevens, Grade 1; Nevin Curry, Grade 1; and Duncan Robinson, Grade 4.

We love youMom & Dad

Interior Health is reminding residents to take precautions against mosquito bites this summer. West Nile virus, a disease that is spread from infected birds to humans through mosquito bites, has been present in B.C. since 2009.

West Nile virus (WNv) was first detected in B.C. in the South Okanagan during the summer of 2009.

To date there have been three human cases of WNv acquired in the province, all of which have been in the Okanagan. Sev-eral WNv cases in Interior Health area residents have also

occurred because of travel to nearby prov-inces or states with higher levels of WNv mosquito activity.

“If you have been bitten by a mosquito, you do not have to be tested for WNv,” said Jennifer Jeyes, Com-municable Disease Specialist with Inter-ior Health.

“Most people who become infected with the virus will have no symptoms or ill effects at all. About 20 per cent of infected people may experi-ence mild to severe flu-like symptoms and less than one per cent of people who are bitten by an infected mosquito will get severely

ill. The elderly and people with com-promised immune systems are gener-ally more at risk of developing a severe illness in response to WNv exposure.”

If you have mild health symptoms that you think might be from the West Nile virus, you should get plenty of rest, drink fluids and avoid alco-hol. If your symptoms persist and seem to be getting more severe, call your doctor.

While the risk of becoming seriously ill from WNv infection is low, it is import-ant to remember there are preventa-tive steps that every-one can take in order

to reduce the risk of infection. The best protection against West Nile virus is to avoid mosquito bites and to reduce mos-quito breeding areas.

Here is what to do:❏ Use mosquito

repellent - Apply mosquito repellent to areas of exposed skin. Check the prod-uct label for instruc-tions on proper use. Repellents containing DEET are safe if the label precautions are followed. DEET-free products are avail-able, but may not provide as long-last-ing protection.

❏ Wear protective clothing - Avoid dark clothing - it tends to attract mosquitoes. If you are in an area with lots of mosqui-toes, wear loose-fit-ting, full-length pants

and a long-sleeved shirt to keep mos-quitoes from biting. Mosquitoes that can carry WNv are most active at dusk and at dawn. Avoid using perfumes, soaps, hair care products and lotions with floral fra-grances.

❏ Install mosquito screens on windows and consider stay-ing indoors between dusk and dawn and in the early evening.

❏ Prevent mosquito breeding around your home. It doesn’t take much time or water for mosquitoes to develop from eggs into adults. Any-thing that can hold water can be a mos-quito breeding area. Identify and remove potential breeding areas on your prop-erty; empty saucers

under flowerpots; change water in bird baths twice a week; unclog rain gutters; drain tarps, tires and other debris where rain water may col-lect; and install a pump in ornamental ponds or stock them with fish. Stagnant backyard pools can be a big source of mos-quitoes and should be maintained regularly to prevent mosquito growth.

B.C. conducts a surveillance program for West Nile virus which includes test-ing of dead birds in the corvid family: crows, ravens, mag-pies and jays.

These birds are more likely than others to die from West Nile virus. The program also includes trapping and testing

of mosquitoes from numerous sites in the province. Members of the public can report dead corvid birds.

Interior Health will continue to col-lect mosquitoes for testing to detect and monitor the spread of the virus through the 2012 season. Interior Health traps mosqui-toes at 14 sites across the southern Interior and sends them to the provincial lab for testing.

They also work with local govern-ments to control mos-quito populations and coordinate plan-ning. In the event that a positive mosquito and/or bird are found in an area that previ-ously has not been shown to have West Nile virus, the public will be notified.

Fight the bite to avoid West Nile virus

ProcessionThe Summerland Pipe Band, followed by mem-bers of the Summerland Legion, opened the ceremonies for last year’s Canada Day celebra-tions. This year, Canada Day events will be held in Memorial Park on July 1 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.

True coloursMarj Plitt donned a colourful red and white hat in honour of last year’s Canada Day celebrations.

A populous nationWhile some say Canada is a big country

with a small population, that statement is only partly true.

Canada’s land area, at 9,984,670 square kilometres, makes it the second largest nation in the world, after Russia.

Canada has a population of more than 34.8 million according to figures from Statis-tics Canada. This ranks Canada in 35th place in terms of population, between Algeria with 37.1 million people and Iraq with 33.3 million people.

The population density is low, with just 3.5 people per square kilometre, one of the lowest rates in the world, but still higher than the population density in Botswana, Mauri-tania, Suriname, Iceland, Australia, Namibia or Mongolia.

Border basicsCanada and the United States share the

world’s longest border, at 8,891 kilometres, but a proposed agreement may give Canada a land border with Denmark as well.

Hans Island, between Canada’s Ellesmere Island and Greenland, is an uninhabited rocky island measuring just 1.3 square kilo-metres.

Canada and Denmark have both staked claims for the island.

The proposed agreement, announced in April, would split ownership of the island between the two countries.

To boldly goWilliam Shatner, who played Capt. James

T. Kirk in the original Star Trek television ser-ies, is a Canadian, but he was not the only Canadian aboard the starship Enterprise. James Doohan, who played Montgomery “Scotty” Scott in the series, was born in Van-couver and grew up in Sarnia, Ont.

On the moveStella Siemens and Victoria Webb-Boothe pull ahead in the sack race, during the Canada Day celebrations held in Memorial Park last year. The Summerland Girl Guides of Canada hosted the traditional games for children.

When you think of adjectives to describe what Canadians are like, you might come up with words like: humorous, passive, polite, friendly, or bland.

Whether any of that is true, one trait we can take pride in is our generos-ity. According to the

World Giving Index, Canada is the third most generous coun-try in the world out of 153 countries. Can-adians donate both of their money and their time, contribut-ing thousands of vol-unteer hours to help those in need. It is evident that we have impacted millions

of lives around the world.

On July 1st, show your Canadian spirit with these activities that help others:

Visit a retirement centre. Get a group of friends together and put on a show. If you can juggle, sing, dance, or make people laugh, use your skill

to brighten someone else’s day. Even if you don’t know anyone in particular at the cen-tre, the time you sac-rificed to pay a visit will speak volumes to the elderly.

Host a neigh-bourhood potluck. Swap food, stories, and experiences as you get to know the

people and needs in your immediate com-munity.

Serve at a soup kitchen or food bank. Soup kitchens and food banks often have a rush of volun-teers at Thanksgiving and Christmas, but Canada Day usually isn’t very popular. Don the apron and

plastic gloves, leave the diva attitude at the door, and help alleviate hunger this summer.

Think beyond our country. Extreme poverty claims the lives of millions of children and families around the world. Basic essentials like clean water, food, and shelter that we take for granted in Canada are in short supply in developing countries. International chil-

dren’s charities like Christian Children’s Fund of Canada work in commun-ities to build schools, wells, and health clin-ics helping the most vulnerable victims of poverty. You can get involved by purchas-ing life-saving items through the charity’s gift catalogue www.ccfcanada.ca/Gifts. Show victims of pov-erty that Canadians care.

Pioneer skillsSummerland Scouts learned about shooting, archery and pioneer survival skills at sessions recently with the Summerland Sportsmen’s Association. It was part of a new youth program for the SSA, designed to promote fishing, hunting, conservation and competitive shooting.

Sportsmen Association members teach Scouts shooting, archery and other activities

Summerland mem-bers of Scouts Can-ada spent a couple of days recently with members of the Sum-merland Sportsmen Association learning about old firearms, archery and other outdoor activities.

Gary Smith of the Summerland Sports-men Association demonstrated how to cast bullets at a meeting Thursday. Adrian’s Automotive

donated the wheel weights that were melted down and cast for bullets.

Members Mandy Smith and Christine Greser talked to the Scouts about life in pioneer times. They explained how to make candles, use ink and feathers to write letters, sew with nee-dle and thread and cook with a skillet on a wood stove.

Harald Greser dis-played old first aid kits, wooden water bottles, flint and steel to start a fire, paper cartridges, home-made tools and a flint-lock rifle replica out of the 18th Century. All the SSA members were dressed in dif-ferent time period costumes.

On the Sunday the Scouts went to the shooting range in Garnett Valley where members of the Sportsmen Asso-ciation taught them to use old firearms. The bullets they cast on Thursday were shot and used up. The Scouts received safety training and it was explained that firearms are not toys and are not computer games.

The B.C. Black Powder Associa-tion donated medals for this event. There

were four different rifle stations. One of the stations had a miniature cannon set up. The target was a Canadian Pirate ship named Hit Me Eh.

Archery was another experience the Scouts tried, with five bow and arrow sets available for their use.

The lunch of bur-gers, hot dogs and drinks was provided by SSA.

The youth program is a new one for SSA, designed to promote outdoor activities, care for wildlife habi-tat and safe use of firearms for hunting as well as competition shooting for youth.

More information is available from the youth committee: Tim Broesch, 250-490-5487; David Chase, 250-494-0603; Harald Greser, 250-494-5409; and Gary Smith, 250-494-9534.

The Sportsmen Association has the following sections: fishing, shooting, hunting, archery, con-servation. The asso-ciation is affiliated with the B.C. Wild-life Federation. The Summerland organ-ization meets every third Thursday of the month 7:30 p.m. at the Summerland Legion. New mem-bers are welcome.

The Valley First Granfondo Axel Mer-ckx cycling event will be coming through Summerland on July 8.

Volunteers are needed from about 6:30 a.m. to 10 a.m. at the Summerland aid station at Memorial Park, the first station on the route.

Volunteers last year had fun pouring water and electrolyte liquids, handing out gels, directing the way and cheering on the riders.

Also needed are 10 foot by 10 foot tents.

S u m m e r l a n d Chamber will also provide a mobile Visitor Centre at the Penticton Trade and Convention Centre for the Trade Show, promoting Summer-land to the riders, their families and friends.

Contact the Sum-merland Chamber of Commerce if you can assist at any of the Granfondo activities.

The Summerland Rotary Club is taking on the responsibility of directional advis-ers during the race.

Over recent weeks, the roads in and around the South Okanagan have been awash with spandex as cyclists gear up for the second annual Valley First Granfon-do Axel Merckx Oka-nagan (VFGFAMO).

Attracting more than 2,000 riders in 2011, the VFGFAMO gives cyclists of all abilities the chance to experience a large, organized ride with-

out the competitive element of racing. It also has economic spinoffs for Okanag-an communities.

Given the number of riders and fans and the average length of stay in the area, it is estimated the inaug-ural VFGFAMO gen-erated more than $2 million in Penticton alone in 2011.

“Having an event like the Valley First Granfondo Axel Mer-ckx Okanagan in our backyard is fantas-tic,” says Valley First president, Paulette Rennie.

“As the title spon-sor, Valley First is proud to play its part in showcas-ing our little slice of paradise, supporting the local community and attracting such tremendous eco-nomic benefits to the region. Last year was a great success; we’re expecting this year’s event to be even bet-ter.”

With less than three weeks left until riders hit the road, training is peaking for many VFGFAMO partici-pants.

Popular in Europe, granfondo events allow riders to experi-ence the rigours of a full pro-level race with the same sup-port enjoyed by pro-fessional cyclists.

However, the emphasis is not only on competition but also on participation.

Olympic medalist, Tour de France vet-eran and the driving force behind the VFG-FAMO, Axel Merckx,

is looking forward to the second staging of what is fast becom-ing a well-known and well-publicized event.

“Following the success of last year’s ride, I’m really excit-ed about our 2012 Granfondo,” said Merckx.

“New events are

always tough to initiate, but Valley First provided us with instant stabil-ity and credibility in the Okanagan. July 8 can’t come soon enough.”

The VFGFAMO also has many com-munity benefits as the event will again be supporting Val-

ley First’s signature cause, Feed the Val-ley.

Like last year, left-over race supplies and recyclables will be donated to Feed the Valley. The event also benefits the Axel Merckx Youth Development Foun-dation, a not-for-prof-it initiative.

Gaming grantsfor sports clubs

Two local organ-izations will share $41,600 in Commun-ity Gaming Grants from the Ministry of Community, Sport and Cultural Development.

They are Sum-merland Orca Swim Club which received $21,600 and Apex Ski Club which received $20,000. The Apex Ski Club and Sum-merland Orca Swim Club both have the same goals: promot-ing fitness and fun, said Penticton MLA

Bill Barisoff.“Its great to see

them receive fund-ing.”

Across British Col-umbia, 137 recipients will share $3,775,327 in the latest round of grants from provin-cial gaming revenue. These grant recipi-ents offer programs in arts and culture, human and social ser-vices, and sport. Last year, the government distributed a total of $135 million in gam-ing grants to about 5,300 groups.

Upcoming 2012 Olympic experience

Free fishing derbyThe recent free fishing derby was deemed a success by organizers. Sixty children from 1.5 to 12 years of age took part and caught a total of 15 fish. Cameron Budney caught the biggest fish, which measured 32.6 centimetres. In all 20 prizes were handed out. The children also enjoyed free hot dogs and juice. The event was sponsored by Summerland Sports-men’s Association and Summerland IGA as part of Summerland Action Festival.

When I give speeches to children at schools or sports teams, I often share the traditional story of “never giving up on your dreams,” and having the brav-ery to “dream big and believe in yourself.”

Although these words are not unique, people’s stories of overcoming obstacles or making their dreams come true never cease to inspire me.

I love to ignite self confidence in our youth that maybe, just like me, someone quite ordinary, they too can dream big and make their goals a reality.

I was seven years old when I vividly remember blowing out my candles on my birthday cake, wishing to go to the Olympics one day.

I didn’t just want to attend an Olym-pics; I wanted to compete in the Olym-pics. Already at the age of seven, I loved to swim competitive-ly and I also played basketball.

Yet at that time, swimming was an Olympic sport for women but basket-ball was not.

I was eight when I witnessed the 1984 L.A Olympics on tele-vision.

On our black and white television, while camping up north, my father managed to bunny ear the signal in so we could watch three Canadians win med-als in swimming: Alex Baumann, Vic-tor Davis and Anne Ottenbrite.

It was then, that the belief became solid-ified that I too, a Can-adian, could become the best in the world.

For the next 10 years, I trained my little heart out and at 16 years old, made my first Olympic team.

I was not the strongest or biggest, but I loved to swim and race and my pas-sion paid off.

I represented Can-ada for the next 13 years and competed in three Olympics.

I raced in five Olympic finals,

(missed a medal twice by 0.5 seconds) and became Common-wealth Games, Pan American Games, Pan Pacific Games and World Cham-pion.

Finally, at the age of 28, I retired from swimming. However, my dreams did not stop there.

Often when I ask children what their dreams are, they are too shy to share them. I always tell them, “That’s okay.”

I let them know that at their age I had two dreams. I probably would have shared the first dream (to be in the Olympics) but my second dream I would have kept pri-vate for fear of being laughed at.

I tell them how important it is to hang on to their dreams and never let them go, even if they feel shy about shar-ing them.

When they are ready, I tell them to share their dreams with someone they trust (a parent, a relative, a teacher, a

friend).Speaking about

your dreams out loud actually helps to make them more real and come true. Sud-denly, people come out of the woodwork to help you with your goal.

My second “secret” dream was to be a television commenta-tor.

When my swim-ming career ended, I knocked on the door of the television stu-dio in my home town (CH Global, Hamil-ton Ontario) and after much persistence, they eventually gave me a weekly health and fitness feature that I continued for more than five years.

I loved battling out heated discussions as a guest on TSN’s Off the Record over the years, and on Sun TV’s Grill Room.

Through my swim-ming career, I was a guest on the former Dini Petty Show, Mike Bullard Show and went on a fishing expedition with the Fins and Skins Show with Henry Waszc-zuk.

Every time I was interviewed I would let the producers know that I wanted to be a broadcaster one day, and eventually I was asked to work with TSN for the Canada Games and Pan Pacific Games.

Most recently, I auditioned for the position of swim-ming commentator for CTV’s first Sum-mer Olympic Games in London this sum-mer, and I have had the honour of receiv-ing this position.

From July 28 to Aug. 4, I will be the colour commentator alongside of TSN’s Rod Smith for the eight-day swimming

extravaganza at the London 2012 Olym-pic Games.

It is such a privilege to be sharing the stor-ies of our Canadian athletes in the pur-suit of their Olympic dream, the podium. It’s just amazing how a child’s dream can

come true.Joanne Malar is

Golf lessons for children

Introductory golf lessons for children aged six to 12 will be offered for two mornings in July at the Summerland Golf and Country Club.

The youth clinic is sponsored by the Professional Golfers Association of Can-ada. Participants will learn how to drive chip, pitch and putt. Instruction will be by either Canadian Professional Golfers Association member Tye Babkirk or Can-adian Golf Teachers Federation member Josh Foreseth.

The lessons are offered July 23 and 30 from 10:45 a.m. to noon.

The lessons are available at a low introductory rate to introduce children to golf. To date more than 110,000 golfers have gone through the program.

Digital photog-raphy has brought an end to the Summer-land Camera Club after 54 years.

The club started when a group of

people interested in photography met at the Nuway Cafe in Summerland.

They decided to form a club to pro-mote photographic

arts in the area. Summerland Cam-

era Club was formed on Feb. 13, 1958.

Over the years the club produced a var-iety of slideshows

that were shown to the public through their Concerts in Col-our, conducted photo seminars and went on field trips and car rallies.

When the club folded recently, it decided to donate its remaining funds totalling $3,535.61

to the Summerland Community Arts Council.

The money will be used to help fund

the wide variety of workshops, shows and events that the arts council runs each year.

Camera club donationDavid Finnis of the Summerland Community Arts Council, accepts a cheque for $3,535.61 from Ruth Manning of the Summerland Camera Club. The club has ceased operation.

Farewell to the StathamsA farewell dinner was held at Lakeside Pres-byterian Church in Summerland recently to honour Jim and Lilias Statham’s eight and a half years of dedicated service to the church in Lowertown. Before arriving in Summerland early in 2004, they had served congregations in Duncan and Ottawa. They said they felt a call-ing to Lakeside, a decision they never regret-ted. At the dinner many in the congregation spoke about how their lives had been changed as a result of the Stathams leading, both in Sunday morning services and Bible studies.
