Princeton RCMP are investi-gating a shooting that took place early Monday morning outside a Burton Street apartment build-ing.
Monday they searched a unit in the building, gathered evi-dence, and seized a SUV from the building’s parking lot that they believe is linked to the inci-
dent.Sergeant Barry Kennedy said
there is “a person of interest” in the case, but as of Monday at 5 p.m. he had not been located, nor was his name released to the press.
Police were notified Monday morning by the apartment build-ing’s manager that shots had been heard behind the building at about 1 a.m. in the morning. The manager reported he’d received
several complaints from tenants.Many building residents lin-
gered outside their apartments Monday, observing the police investigation, but no one agreed to be interviewed by the Spotlight or wanted even to speak off the record.
According to Kennedy there is no evidence that anyone was harmed in the incident, although he could not speculate about the circumstances surrounding the
shooting.“That has yet to be deter-
mined.”However he said police have
ruled out the possibility the shooting was hunting-related.
Gun violence in residential areas in Princeton is “pretty rare but it has happened more recent-ly,” said Kennedy. “When you get it in residential areas we are very vigilant.”

Spotlight StaffA dramatic moonlight rescue from the
side of Johnny’s Hat Mountain had a fortu-nate outcome Tuesday morning.
A young hiker, who was struck on the head by a falling rock, was recovered and transported to Penticton General Hospital where she is in stable condition.
The victim spent nearly 12 hours on the mountain, in and out of consciousness, while paramedics, RCMP, search and rescue crews from Princeton and Penticton as well as armed forces personnel from CFB Comox staged the operation.
The woman, who is in her early 20s, is a volunteer at Rock Ridge Canyon, and was not experienced enough to be hiking in that area, said Rick Butler, communications man-ager for the camp.
The incident occurred about 4 p.m. Monday, and ambulance workers reached the victim on foot at about 6 p.m. Between 10 p.m. and midnight a Buffalo aircraft from CFM Comax dropped flares to illuminate the mountain, and a rope crew from Penticton handed the victim down the hill on a stretcher in a basket. The mountain was clear of vol-unteers and rescue personnel about 4:30 a.m.
Butler had high praise for the emergency services. “They did an amazing job…. It was so well managed by everyone.”

Two Princeton RCMP officers have been cleared of any wrongdoing follow-ing an altercation with a possible drunk driver
last March. Details about the
incident are vague as the man was subsequently charged with assaulting a police officer and that matter is still before the courts.
The three-page report
released Friday, about seven months after the incident, states the excessive force inves-tigation was launched following an alterca-tion, which occurred in a school parking lot at about 3 a.m. on March 22.
While on regular patrol an officer spot-ted a pickup truck with its engine running in the parking lot. While the officer began to inves-tigate for a possible impaired driver, a sec-ond cruiser arrived on scene.
A physical alterca-tion between the driver and the officers ensued.
After being arrested the man lost conscious-ness in the back seat of a cruiser. Officers immediately took the man to hospital, where he received medical
care and was released at about 1 p.m. the follow-ing day.
The man did not require any further med-ical treatment.
The only other wit-ness to the incident was a female passenger in
the pickup truck. The CJB reviewed
the investigative file including witness state-ments, police reports, photographic and medi-cal evidence.
“The officers involved in the incident
provided an explanation for the force used which Crown counsel has con-cluded is reasonably capable of belief in all of the circumstances,” the press release from the CJB stated.
“In addition, Crown
counsel has concluded, based on the available evidence, that there are concerns with respect to the weight that can rea-sonably be given to the statements of the driver and the passenger of the vehicle.”

Hayley Jae Huff’s favorite color is purple. She loves the movie Brother Bear and her playthings of choice are Jimmy – her Chihuahua – and her hockey stick.
She is two-and-a-half years old and less than two weeks ago she was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia and immediately airlifted to Vancouver’s
BC Children’s Hospital to undergo lifesaving treatment. The diagnosis – the most common of all child-hood cancers – was made after Hayley was taken to the doctor suffering from cold-like symptoms.
ALL is a treatable cancer, although there is presently no word on Hayley’s prognosis.
In less than ten days friends of the Huff family have raised more than $28,000 to help Hayley’s par-ents Jessica McCarthy and Colby Huff meet the expenses of living away from home, and other costs associated with Hayley’s illness.
A on-line Go Fund Me page raised more than $20,000 in less than two days. As of Tuesday morn-ing 200 people had made on-line donations and the page, which had an initial goal of raising $10,000, had brought in $24,970.
The page was initiated by family friend Stephanie Vermette
“We’re raising money for every-thing they will need while they are away from home and dealing with treatments,” said Laura Robbins, another family friend who was one of the key organizers of a two-day
bake sale on the weekend that alone raised more than $5000.
Robbins described Hayley as an ironed-willed and sweet-natured child. “She’s always been special. She’s the most bubbly person and a strong minded little girl.”
Hayley is adjusting to life in hospital, said Robbins, and is enjoy-ing painting in the hospital’s activ-ity room. On Monday she said “I talked to them [Jessica and Colby] this morning and she was in the
playroom with her Dad.”Robbins said Hayley’s parents
– who work at Huffy’s Garage and Westland Insurance – are “doing as well as can be expected under the circumstances. They’re being strong.”
The weekend bake sale at Coopers was supported by many local businesses including the grocery story which donated pop, hot dogs and buns for a barbecue, Subway which donated trays of
sandwiches, Fletcher’s, as well as a large network of volunteers who provided the bake goods.
Anyone wishing to donate to Hayley can do so at a trust fund established at Valley First, or by going on-line to http://www.gofundme.com/ftol2c.
Several home-based shopping parties are planned to raise further funds, and an event is in the works for November 14 at Brown Bridge Pub.

VICTORIA – “Hands up.” That famous command is attributed to Bill Miner,
an American career criminal who is also credited with B.C.’s first train robbery, at Silverdale on the Mission border in 1910.
A more genteel, and of course perfectly legal, trackside transfer of wealth is underway in the B.C. legislature. It’s called the Canadian Pacific Railway (Stone and Timber) Settlement Act, and it provides for taxpayers to hand over $19 million to CP Rail to settle a lawsuit over historic logging, rock and gravel rights given to B.C.’s pioneering railway builders.
Students of B.C. history will know that while Bill Miner got the headlines, it was the early coal, lumber and railway barons who really made out like bandits. And CP Rail inherited some of this by 1912 when it took over three early railways that had been granted vast tracts of provincial Crown land.
Deputy Premier Rich Coleman revealed the settlement in the legislature this month. It seems that when CP Rail took over the B.C. Southern Railway Company, the Columbia and Kootenay Railway and Navigation Company and the Columbia and Western Railway Company, there were some clerical errors along the way.
“I am pleased that Canadian Pacific Railway and the province have recently reached an agreement regarding the disputed ownership and value of timber and stone rights on 145,000 hectares of Crown land and 68,000 hectares of private land in the Kootenay and Okanagan regions,” Coleman told the legislature.
“The province granted land to three railway companies between 1892 and 1908 to subsidize railway construction. These railway companies reserved timber and stone rights for their own use when they sold the land to third parties in the early 1900s.
These reservations were not recognized in many subsequent land transactions, and many of them were not registered in the current land title system.”
These discrepancies came to light in the early 2000s. They involve some 1,600 properties, so you can imagine the lawyer fees that would be accumu-lated to sort through those in court. And Coleman’s statement suggests that the government has con-ceded its records are in error, rather than those of the railways.
Given the Wild West ways of B.C.’s early settle-ment and railway development, it’s not surprising there were some loose ends. For a fascinating look at this period, I recommend Barrie Sanford’s book Steel Rails and Iron Men (Whitecap Books, 1990).
Sanford recounts the fateful decision of the CPR to turn north at Medicine Hat and push Canada’s
defining railway through the Kicking Horse Pass, leaving the mineral-rich Kootenay region open to competitors for rail freight service.
A key figure of those days is James Dunsmuir, who inherited his family coal fortune and served as B.C. premier from 1900 to 1902. He ended up owning a large part of Vancouver Island in exchange for building the Esquimalt and Nanaimo Railway, which he sold to the CPR in 1905, the same year he locked out miners in his coal operations for their push to organize a union.
Dunsmuir’s hard line provided a boost for a rival, James Jerome Hill, who built the Great Northern Railway in the 1890s and later quit the CPR board in a bitter feud. Hill was happy to supply coal from Fernie.
Dunsmuir took a turn as B.C.’s eighth Lieutenant Governor, sold his coal business and retired to his estate, Hatley Castle, which is now part of Royal Roads University.
He is buried at Victoria’s Ross Bay Cemetery. As Halloween approaches, it’s easy to imagine a chuckle from his grave as the railway barons once again rake it in.

LETTER WRITING POLICY
The Similkameen SpoTlighT welcomes letters to the editor that are of interest to our community. Letters critical of the newspaper and its editorial content are particularly welcome. Whatever the subject, there are a few basic guidelines to follow before The Similkameen SpoTlighT will publish your comment.
• Letters should be typed or neatly written and present the issue as clearly and briefly as possible. (Maximum of 350 words)
• All letters must contain the name, address and signature of the writer, and a phone number where they may be reached during business hours.
• Anonymous letters will not be published and pen names may not be used, except in exceptional circumstances at the discretion of the editor.
• The editor reserves the right to edit for length, clarity or reject letters over matters of libel, legality, taste or style.
There is never a shortage of good causes to sup-port.
There are too many choices when it comes to donating time and money. Should you help the crisis center, the local food bank, support minor sports, or local schools?
One person, one business or one community can’t do it all.
Coopers in Princeton selects, as a part of a corpo-rate initiative, to raise funds and awareness for BC Children’s Hospital.
While it may seem like an odd charity for the local grocery to work for at first blush, when you realize that last year 63 children from Princeton were treated at BC Children’s Hospital the direct benefit to the community comes into sharp focus.
Coopers runs numerous fundraisers for the hos-pital at any given time. Right now it is raising money by raffling off a freezer, selling chances to guess the weight of a giant pumpkin, offering customers the opportunity to “round up” their grocery bills to the nearest dollar, and there are usually goodies that can be purchased near the front tills with proceeds going to the cause.
Supporting BC Children’s Hospital is critical for families in the community and across the province. BC Children’s Hospital is the province’s only full-service, pediatric acute care hospital and serves the one million children living in BC and the Yukon. All children who are seriously ill or injured are referred to Children’s Hospital and are either treated at the hospital facility in Vancouver or, with consultation from children’s specialists, in their home community.
Last year more than 81,000 children were treat-ed at Children’s Hospital. (Don’t forget 63 of them were from Princeton.) and BC Children’s Hospital Foundation received donations from more than 116,000 people and had revenues of over $91 mil-lion.
A reminder of the importance of this cause is timely, with so many people in the area pledging prayers and support for one of the hospital’s newest patients, Hayley Jae Huff.
It’s also important for the people of Princeton area to remember how much Coopers, and other local businesses of course, put back into town with through donations and sponsorships. The next time you think about shopping out of town because you think you might get a better deal, think again.

Cops and reporters a bit like cats and dogsA recent press release from the
RCMP brought to mind an old friend from Paris, Ontario.
The press release addressed the dangers of brandishing replica weapons, and the friend is Reg.(Name changed to protect the beau-tiful.)
When I knew Reg he looked exactly like Sam Elliott as he appeared in the movie Roadhouse. He was 6’5” tall and had a southern drawl that came from the very bot-tom of the keyboard.
In his salad days Reg was a paratrooper with U.S. Special Forces. He did two tours of duty in Vietnam, and then was a street cop for years in Toronto. Yeah. Reg was as tough as a fuzzy bunny.
During what turned out to be his last shift with Metro city police Reg and his partner shot and killed a teenage boy who was crouched on a garage roof pointing a replica handgun.
Despite a lengthy and thorough inquiry into the tragedy, it was never revealed which officer’s bul-let caused the fatal wound. Even though both men were exonerated
of wrongdoing the media attention was intense. The partner quit polic-ing and Reg got the heck out of Dodge and accepted a position as constable in the town of Paris.
Reporters and cops aren’t exact-ly born enemies, but it’s foolish to deny they have a mutual and recip-rocal wariness. Cops think reporters are likely to get a story wrong so they resist releasing information to the press. The press knows full well it’s a whole lot easier to get a story right when police release all the information.
Reg had more reasons than most to be gun shy, so it took the staff of the local paper some time to win his trust. This was when cops walked a beat – rattling downtown door handles after dark and showing the colors.
Reg developed the habit of drop-ping by the office on production nights for coffee. He would some-times drop a lead on my desk, tidbits that got missed in the weekly press releases. Our homes were close and eventually our families spent many summer nights around the backyard campfire talking life and shop.
None of this kept Reg out of the newspaper. There was the day he backed his cruiser – with consider-able speed – into a tree. You can bet I hightailed it out to the impound yard to get a photo of the damage. On another occasion Reg mistook a beloved 18-year-old family pet for a rabid cat. He shot and killed it, and adding insult to injury he disposed of the body in a mixed bag of animal pieces on a shelf in the freezer of the town’s veterinary clinic.
The paper was all over that story like a blanket. It’s true. I will throw anyone under the bus for letters to the editor.
It should be noted the paper also reported when Reg went back to the vet’s, dug through the assorted animal carcasses to retrieve the cat, and returned it to its devastated owners.
I had occasion for professional dealings with Reg on another level.
One afternoon he pulled me over in a speed trap, and started to write me a ticket.
Seriously? I looked over the car window
at my dear friend. It’s possible my jaw slacked.
I probably don’t need to tell Princeton that in a small town when a person is tight with the constabu-lary you get accustomed to “get out of jail free cards.” That’s not a sense of entitlement. But you feel pretty comfortable flying past a radar gun and getting away with a gentle warning and a wink.
Reg ordered me to step out of the vehicle. He proceeded to crawl all over my car and composed a list of driving violations that totaled more than $1500 in fines. They ranged from a burnt out tail light to an absent wallet – no driver’s
license, ownership or insurance papers on my person.
Reg tore up the list, handed me a speeding ticket for $52 and then cuffed me gently on the side of the head and told me I had a bad reputation in town for driving like a maniac and he wasn’t about to watch me get shoveled off the pave-ment one night.
Then he gave me a hug, and his brown eyes were a little misty. “You have kids. Smarten up.” (I forgo the expletives.)
There’s a story in this week’s paper about two Princeton RCMP officers who were recently cleared of any charges in relationship to an accusation of excessive use of force. Cops and reporters have this much in common – the job isn’t an exact science. It’s emotional and situational and the good ones do the best they can with the skills and experience they possess, and they make judgment calls and some-times they get judged in return.
Anyways. That’s my friend Reg.
Tough as a fuzzy bunny.

Vi Woods is a consultant in autism, a grand-mother, and at age 69, a member of a world cham-pion Dragon Boat racing team. Anyone needing inspiration to achieve a difficult goal will certainly find her to be a valuable role model. She provides ample proof that with determination, perseverance and a vision for something significant, great things are possible.
Entered in the 60 plus women’s category, her team competed in this summer’s Club Crew World Championships in Italy. The competition was orga-nized by the International Dragon Boat Federation.
Standing at 5 feet, 1 inch, Vi needed to train with exceptional diligence to make the team. It is her grit and strong will that attracted my interest. I also wondered if Dragon Boating might have a future in the Similkameen Valley. Certainly we have an abun-dance of lakes within easy driving distance.
Approximately 40 women, including some from Penticton, Victoria and other centres tried out for the championship team that made the trip to Italy. “Besides the Drummer who is at the front of the boat and the Steerer at the back, there are only 20 avail-able positions,” Vi told me in a telephone interview from her daughter’s home in Winnipeg. “I wasn’t at all certain I’d make the team. The women trying out for it were highly skilled, very strong and fiercely competitive.”
“My personal training included four strenuous sessions in the gym each week, one with a trainer. I also paddled two times each week with my regular team, the Grand Dragons, and once per week with the competition team. There were also two day camps, spaced several months apart. I needed to be totally disciplined in honing my paddling skills and
in my physical conditioning.”To be named to the team, Vi needed to suc-
cessfully complete a series of rigorous tests. These included a solo paddle on an outrigger boat. There were also strength tests such as an 80 pound lap pull, weight lifting and pushups (she can do 20). Much like an Olympic athlete, she had trained for some eight years to achieve the skill and fitness levels required to win a greatly coveted place in interna-tional dragon boat competition.
“When we are training for a competition,” she said “it becomes consuming. It’s what I think about and talk about.”
Dragon Boat racing dates back some 2500 years and is still part of religious ceremonies and folk customs, especially in areas of East Asia where there are ethnic Chinese populations. One purpose is to venerate the Chinese dragon water deity and to encourage rainfall.
“We have to work closely as a team,” Vi said. “Our strokes must be synchronized. The Drummer plays an important role in achieving this. We are all friends and help each other.”
She concluded by saying, “it’s very exciting going into a competition. These boats go really fast. We have to be totally fit and focused. All our strength goes into the race.”
Apparently their boat did go really fast. Her team wasn’t defeated in any of the races. Vi and her team mates each came away with three gold medals. Her reason for being in Winnipeg at this time is to spend time with Olin, her newly born grandson. Even Dragon Boat racing must step aside for this.
I’m not aware of Dragon Boat racing in the Similkameen Valley. It sounds like a great sport for some enterprising organizer to introduce here. Some of us might benefit from such a rigorous challenge.
Is the valley up for dragon boat racing?
The Similkameen Valley maybe the perfect place for a dragon boat challenge.

Get ready for huge Halloween family bashTara Bowie
Similkameen SpotlightIt’s sure to be a spooktacular eve-
ning for everyone. The fourth edition of the revamped
Halloween Family Fun Night is set to take place Saturday, Oct. 25.
Volunteers have been tirelessly working for the last six weeks to put together the event, which has become a fall tradition for many.
“I love Halloween. I’m just all into the spook and fun,” organizer Jennifer Bernard said. “This is an event for the entire community.”
The free event attracted well over 1,000 people last year and Bernard expects an even bigger turnout this year at the Princeton Exhibition Grounds (fairgrounds).
“The first year we just started with a bonfire, we had fireworks, food and games,” she said. “Over the years we’ve added things tor make it fresh and exciting for everyone.”
This year will boast many of the same crowd-pleasing events including the bonfire, fireworks and free food in addition to the thrilling spook houses.
Games this year include a dart game and three-legged race. Again this year there will also be a craft cor-
ner and fireworks, which are set-off by professionals.
Although the event is free to attend, organizers hope the community will be generous with donations of non-perishable food for the food bank and monetary donations for the Princeton Secondary School senior band.
“A lot of people wonder why we don’t raise money for the family fun night but it’s because we want to give back and help the food bank and dif-ferent organizations,” she said.
Bernard said without the generous support of the community the ∑event wouldn’t go on each year.
The event is supported by the Town of Princeton, Princeton Crisis Assistance, Copper Mountain Mining Operations Ltd., RDOS – Brad Hope, Princeton Ground Search and Rescue and the Similkameen Spotlight.
Anyone interested in volunteering for the fun night can contact Bernard at 250-295-7438.
WHAT: Halloween Family Fun Night
WHERE: Princeton Exhibition Grounds (fairgrounds)
WHEN: Saturday, Oct. 25 gates opening at 5 p.m.
More than 1,000 people are expected to turn out for Princeton’s annual Halloween Family Fun Night at the fairgrounds, including the charming guests pictured above.
Bob MarshFletcher’s Building Supplies raised more than $600 for the Princeton Posse last week when they raffled off a barbecue at Wednesday’s home game. Co-owner Susan Robinson was on hand to announce the winning ticket holder, Bill Montgomery.
The Similkameen Spotlight is pleased to announce the appoint-ment of Tara Bowie to the position of associate editor.Bowie recently moved to Princeton from Norwich, Ontario, where she worked for eight years as a reporter for Sun Media at both the weekly Norwich Gazette and the daily Woodstock Sentinel Review. Bowie is also the new associate editor of the Keremeos Review, while Spotlight publisher and editor Andrea DeMeer assumes management duties at that paper as well.

Dierre MaynardHockey is a little different than it once
was. As players laced up last this season, one boy could be seen taking a picture on his iPhone of his skates with the caption, “Lacing up my skates for the first time this season…it’s good to be back!” The dressing room was buzzing with excitement and enfolded in a comfortable familiarity.
Some things about hockey remain the same. One Mom comes smiling into the stands, “I missed my winter family. I feel like I have been in isolation.” New skates cut through the ice. There is little groan-ing as they skate lines. Even a tough first practice is welcome. Parents scan the kids…not yet familiar with what kid is in what new jersey. “Whose that in the black jersey over there? Wow…the kids have grown over the summer.”
New, yet, familiar, it all flows together. There are a lot of smiles in the Princeton Arena. Parents are happy to see their kids exercising in a sport they love. Kids are excited to be playing a sport they love. It is all one big place of good juju.
The season has some differences from other seasons. A strong executive is at the helm again. After a few years of bumpy roads, not enough board members and low funding, they have risen from the ashes. The club has much to be thankful for. Last year, a 50/50 ticket raffle was a huge suc-cess and one lucky winner went home with $3000 cash. The club put $3000 in their bank account and could proudly say they were in the black between that and their other sponsorship initiatives. Association President, Dan Lankinen, confirmed that due to last years success, there will be a similar and slightly larger 50/50 raffle again this season. “Princeton Minor Hockey wishes to thank everyone locally for last years support and looks forward to an even better drive this year. Although, we have other smaller projects in planning this is our major fund-raiser of the year and tickets will be going on sale soon with a planned draw later this season. Money raised helps keep registration fees down thereby, allowing Princeton youth to enjoy an exciting, physical sport locally. Please do your part to keep this initiative going by purchasing your ticket.”
Subway and FortisBC got the ball roll-ing on the club’s jersey drive three years ago. They gave their wholehearted support to the club to purchase new jerseys for two of the teams. Home Hardware, Copper Mountain Mine, Superior Propane, Hayes Creek Electric, A&W, Princeton Redi-Mix, IDA Pharmacy, Barry Beecroft, and Old Style Bins soon followed. All gave the club money to purchase new jerseys. While not every team has a sponsor yet, the club is still hopeful that there soon will be. Any busi-nesses interested in supporting PDMHA with jerseys sponsorship ($100 for one) or sign sponsorship ($500 for a 2’ x 4’), team spon-sorship ($500) or anything else, can contact sponsorship director Karen Fulton with the club at 250-295-1595.
Last year, PDMHA (Princeton and District Minor Hockey Association) also, started a new partnership with Sandman Inn Princeton. For every hockey room booked for Minor Hockey games and tournaments, through the Sandman Inn, PDMHA gets a kickback. Last year, that kickback turned out to be $342. Sandman Inn Manager, Judy Cross called again before the 2014/2015 season started. “I have a cheque for you.” This year, she held a bigger cheque in her hands for $408. PCMHA President Dan Lankinen stated “this is an example of a win-win situ-
ation between Princeton Minor Hockey and local business. Our tournaments over the season bring an influx of hundreds of players and parents spending money at hotels, restau-rants, and other establishments in Princeton in an off season time of the year. Sandman Inn has recognized that and has joined into a partnership with PDMHA that works for both groups. We thank all of our sponsors and look forward to working with you to develop other ideas that can continue to bring an economic benefit to us both. Bring on the season.”
Past Princeton and District Minor Hockey Association Vice President, Dierra Maynard, was pleased to accept a cheque for $408 from Sandman Inn Manager Judy Cross earlier this year.
Princeton minor hockey has much to be thankful for

Area H – Jamie Frandsen
Age: 55Marital Status:
Married for 30+ yearsChildren: 3 young
adultsOccupation: Retired
Business ProfessionalEducation: Diploma,
British Columbia Institute of Technology
Residence: Full-time resident in the Similkameen Valley
Jamie Frandsen cur-rently resides full-time in the Similkmaneen Valley with his wife,
and has a long history in the community dating back to 1969. When he was just 10 years old, his family purchased a property at Allison Lake. Since then, he has spent countless days, weeks and months in the region growing up, as a young adult, and later raising a family of his own and watching his three children move onto adulthood while
spending many long weekends and summer holidays in the valley from Vancouver.
Since becoming a full-time resident last year, Jamie has con-tinued to be actively involved in the commu-nity. Jamie was elected President of “The Allison / Borgesson Ratepayer’s Association” and was elected as one of two Directors on
“The Allison Lake Improvement District” Board. Jamie is excited about the current oppor-tunity to be involved on a wider scale. Through being out in the com-munity and meeting as many members as pos-sible, a number of issues and concerns have been brought to his atten-tion which he plans to address as the campaign moves forward.
The BC Centre for Disease Control is reminding people to consume only pasteur-ized apple-based drinks this fall season.
Unpasteurized apple juice and cider common-ly available at pumpkin patch events and local farmers markets can become infected with harmful bacteria like E. coli and Salmonella. The vast majority of juice sold in BC is safe, but only pasteurization (heat treatment) can ensure that apple juice and cider are free of harmful pathogens.
To avoid infection by foodborne bacteria, consumers should check the package label to determine whether the apple juice or cider has been pasteurized. If the label does not provide this information, con-sumers can ask their retailer or producer, or phone the manufacturer listed on the label. When
in doubt, consumers should take precautions and consider the risks before drinking.
Safety tips for con-sumers:
Boil unpasteurized apple juice and cider for one minute before con-suming.
Avoid serving unpas-teurized apple juice and cider products to those most at risk (young chil-dren, the elderly, and peo
ple with weakened immune systems).
Freezing and refrig-eration do not make unpasteurized apple juice or cider safe.Ensure freshness and quality by refrigerating apple juice and cider products and respecting their best-before dates.
· If you believe that you have become ill as a result of drink-ing unpasteurized apple juice or cider, see a doc-tor immediately and notify your local health authority.
Consumers should also avoid raw milk, which can contain a number of disease caus-ing organisms, includ-ing E. coli, Salmonella and other pathogens. Pasteurization kills any pathogens that may be
present in raw milk. Raw milk is not permit-ted for sale in Canada.
Symptoms of infec-tion from E. coli or Salmonella can include stomach cramps, vomit-
ing, fever and bloody diarrhea. Symptoms can occur within two to 10 days of consum-ing contaminated food. Up to eight per cent of people infected with E.
coli O157:H7 can have severe kidney dam-age which may lead to death, with the greatest risk in children under five years of age.

Margaret FraserAn unseasonably warm weekend made it even easier for Princeton residents to enjoy the beauty of fall along The Similkameen. Sunday temperatures reached 12 degrees, and many people took advantage of the weather to walk or hike in the autumn colors.
Merrilyn HuyckeArtifacts
This past week, my brother and I have taken a little road trip together to Whistler. Our base has-been a very comfortable condo with plenty of room for both of us to sprawl out, take time for ourselves as well as have time together. Since both left our parental home, we have nearly always lived a fair distance from each other.
We’ve married, had children and made lives for ourselves in different parts of western Canada. We’ve stayed in touch and even visited near-ly every year but still, paths diverge and when we do get together it is usually with other fam-ily members present. Sometimes that means that we don’t really have time to share some of our sorrows along with the fun of group togeth-erness.
I’m getting a little long in the tooth and I felt an urge to recon-nect. When I mentioned a road trip to my brother, he thought it was a great idea. He had one week of holidays left (he’s much younger than I am and is still employed) and so on a whim we grabbed the opportunity and before we knew it, we were heading down Highway 3.
The drive through Manning Park and on through Hope and Vancouver proved to be delightful with fall colours along the way. It opened up a flood-
gate of conversation that caught us both up on the last few years. Gordie had been through a life threatening health event four years earlier that resulted in open-heart surgery. I of course was kept up to date at the time regarding his miraculous survival of the repair of a massively torn aorta but I had not realized the aftermath of debility and ongoing recovery.
My brother and I are children of Great Depression survivors and clearly, at least one of us occasionally fell back on our training to “suck it up” and get on with life. I am much more comfortable with broadcasting my dis-comfort and sharing my misery with the entire Western World so it was an eye opener.
As the days passed, we alternated between short walks around Whistler, a drive to Pemberton and beyond and light banter inter-spersed with comfort-able moments of silence.
We drove off highway to a lovely spot called Birkenhead Provincial Park. We took photos, breathed in the marvel-ously fresh rainforest air that was lightly scented with cedar. We chatted with a Welsh couple who arrived shortly after we did and were nearly desperate to see a bear, “Well, not too close!” And then, we found a market in Pemberton that sold the famous Pemberton seed pota-toes (who knew?) and
purchased our supper supplies there. I began to realize that the best place to talk was in the car, rolling up and down the winding mountain roads.
For some reason, it seems easier to slip into conversation that deals with sometimes dif-ficult topics when the participants (at least one of which is male) are not facing each other. I began to feel a rhythm to our days. It became easier to bring up issues that had been neglected for years.
Mostly the distance we had felt was about neglect rather than
intention.I had been teasing
my analytical, technical younger brother about teaching him how to make a monoprint and this had turned out to be the lighthearted open-ing that we had needed to rekindle our relation-ship. Now lest you think something absolutely unspeakable had come between us, let me say that it was not about that at all.
We had just not made the effort to keep up, living several hundred kilometres away from each other. Our extend-ed family has lived in nearly every continent
on the world and it is easy to slip and allow the distance to creep in. On top of it all, add in the fact that one sib-ling is completely left brained and the other (guess!) pretty much only uses the right side of her head.
As our time together came to an end and we were driving through the
mountains once again on our way home to Princeton, our conver-sation opened up even more. We agreed that we had needed to take this trip for many reasons. Together, we are closer in many ways than we are in any other relation-ship. We share a history that only we can really feel in our hearts. We
see the strengths of our parents (and the weak-nesses too of course) in each other. Together we are able to understand what our mother and father endured and dare I say, we can forgive them for not being per-fect, and that is a really, really good thing!

The Princeton Posse was poised to stretch their winning streak to six games Sunday against the Osoyoos Coyotes when the team experienced an overwhelming third period meltdown.
With less than 14 minutes left in the game the Posse was leading the Coyotes 2-1 and when the buzzer sounded they were on the receiving end of a 6-2 defeat.
“We need to be better at closing out our wins,” said head coach Bill Rotheisler in an interview with The Spotlight. “That’s been sort of a problem for us all year…It seems like a lot of our games we are either winning or losing in the third period.”
Rotheisler said the team “seems to unwind a bit too soon,” as the clock ticks down, especially if they’ve been outmatching the opposing team.
He also identified weak shifts after goals – a tra-ditionally vulnerable time on the ice – as a contribut-ing problem. “We definitely have to focus on having big shifts after goals.”
Osoyoos outshot the Posse 45 to 29, and Spencer Huff turned away 39 shots.
Eden Dubchak was named the Away Star of Game, with a goal and an assist. Kurtis Klinger also had a goal and assist, and other assists went to Daine Elphicke and Cooper Prechel.
The Posse won back-to-back contests against the North Okanagan Knights earlier in the week. Wednesday at home Stephen Heslop faced 17 shots and earned a shut out in 3-0 win. Goals were scored by Colton St. John (2) and Destin Robinson. Assists went to Bryan Kromm (2), Eden Dubchak, Daine Elphicke and Cody Lassiter.
Saturday on home ice the Posse won 5-3 thanks to a four goal run in the second period led by Kyle Bergh who was the Home Star of the Game. Bergh had a three point game with two goals and an assist. Thomas Cankovic, Trevor Pereverzoff and Keith Comte all contributed goals. Assists went to Conkovic, Pereverzoff, Conner Sloan (2), Eden Dubchak, Cody Lassiter and Colton St. John.

Debbie LyonMore than 600 vehicles went through the gates of the Princeton and District Landfill over the week-end during free landfill days. Although tonnage of dropped items isn’t known, staff at the landfill took in 54 fridges, freezers, 96 mattresses, 14 hide-a-beds, garbage and about 40 yards of material in the grain and woodpile. More than 60 per cent of items were recycled.

FOR ENTERTAINMENT ONLY
ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20
Aries, you begin the week with enthusiasm, but excitement begins to wane quite quickly. Find a way to rally your energy levels so you can
complete tasks.TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21
Rein in your emotions as much as possible this week, Taurus. You will feel passionate about a project in the coming days, but you still must
remain calm as you tackle the tasks at hand.
GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21
Gemini, commitments at work may keep you from your plans, even if
you have had a special event on the calendar for some time. This obliga-
tion is unavoidable.CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22
Expect to have some serious feel-ings about love and romance this week, Cancer. You are empowered
by the sweet feelings and what they mean for your future.
LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23
Leo, you are quite adept at maintain-ing a stoic outer appearance, but
inside your emotions are churning. Find a healthy release and you will
be glad you did.VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22
Virgo, test the waters before you share a secret. This way you can
get an idea of how a small group of people will react before you spread
the word.LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23
Libra, use your natural gift for diplo-macy to resolve a conflict at work. It is easy to find common ground
and steer the conversation toward a reasonable resolution.SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22
Scorpio, grab some friends’ attention as you attempt to garner support for a coming project. Once you have the floor, make the most of this
opportunity.SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21
Sagittarius, everything in your life seems to be in order. Now might be a great time to schedule some
well-deserved rest and relaxtion with loved ones.
CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20
Capricorn, listen to your sixth sense as it guides you in a particular direc-tion. Your instincts rarely steer you
wrong. Resist the urge to follow what everyone else is doing.
AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18
The first step toward change at work is to take the initiative, Aquarius.
Once you make the decision to forge ahead, everything will fall nicely into
place.PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20
Pisces, don’t worry if you have to give up something you desire when negotiating with others. The chips
will fall into place.
