Stray pellet fired during intermission

by John Arendt

An 11-year-old girl at the Summerland Pro Bullriding Stampede on Saturday evening was injured in a pellet gun mishap during the inter-mission.

A woman on horse-back was shooting at bal-loons when Calista Staf-ford, who was sitting on a fence at the grounds, felt a sudden pain in her right hip.

When she looked down and saw the blood from the wound, she realized she had been shot.

“I felt really, real-ly scared,” she said. “I thought I was going to bleed so much. I was shaking.”

Her father, Gene Staf-ford, carried her to the St. John Ambulance sta-tion on site where the pel-let was removed and she was cleaned up.

He then took his daughter to the Penticton Regional Hospital where she was treated and then released.

Gene Stafford said the pellets should not have been used and the gun should not have been fired at the crowd.

“I can’t believe the stu-pidity,” he said. “They were firing at a crowd with a projectile. If you’re going to shoot at a target, use something else.”

The pellets used are designed for hunting small game.

The container in which they are packaged con-tains a warning label. “Air guns are not toys.

May cause serious injury or death. Be careful — shoot safely!”

The lead pellets can also cause serious health problems.

Gene Stafford said the pellet could have resulted in significant damage to internal organs if it had

followed a slightly differ-ent path.

The injury did not require stitches, but Calista Stafford is in pain and moving slowly as she recovers from the shot.

Sgt. Stephane Lacroix of the Summerland RCMP detachment said

police are investigating the incident.

He said the rider appears to have fallen when the shot occurred.

“It appears to be acci-dental,” he said.

“It’s just an unfortu-nate incident.”

The shot was reported

to police by the Stafford family the day after the rodeo.

Police are continuing to talk to witnesses.

Matt Darmody, organ-izer of the Summerland Pro Bullriding Stampede, could not be reached for comment by press time.

A year has passed since the papers were signed for the multi-storey Wharton Street develop-ment but construction has not yet started.

The documents for the multi-storey development were signed

a year ago, on Aug. 16, 2012.At the time, Randy Gibson,

one of the developers, said the target for groundbreaking was February, 2013 with the comple-tion of the first building expected early in 2014.

The project’s value was esti-mated at between $90 and $120

million.Municipal planner Ian

McIntosh said the proponent of the project, Danny Nonis, had serious health problems in early spring and as a result, the entire project was put on hold.

Nonis is now recovering and the municipality will soon learn

the status of the project.“They’re very keen about this

project,” McIntosh said of Nonis and the other developers.

Because of the scale of the project and because it involves municipal land the time frame is lengthy.

Wharton Street project delayed

As some high school students are preparing for the annual back-to-school bush party, Sgt. Stephane Lacroix of the Summerland RCMP detachment said police will have roadblocks in place before and after the event.

“We certainly don’t support it and we recommend parents don’t send their kids to it,” Lacroix said of the annual party.

The bush party occurs outside of the detachment’s cover-age area, but the police will have road-blocks in place before the event begins and after it is over.

The bush parties, which are held at the

start and end of the school year, are not school-sanctioned events.

Lacroix said the par-ties have the potential to turn tragic.

“If you mix alcohol and drugs, bad things happen,” he said.

In June, 2011, fol-lowing a similar bush party in Penticton to mark the end of the school year, a 16-year-old student was stabbed and killed.

A 19-year-old man was held in custody following the inci-dent.

Police to set roadblocks for bush party

An angry bullRodeo workers attempt to distract an angry bull as bull rider Marlon Williams leaves the ring on Saturday evening. Wil-liams, of Mount Currie, was one of more than 30 bull riders competing in the event at the Summerland Rodeo Grounds.

Continued from Page 1This is the third

time a proposal for the municipally-owned property on Wharton Street has come before munici-pal council.

The Meiklejohn proposal and Mike Rink’s proposal both did not proceed.

While Rink had expressed interest in the project, an agree-ment was not signed. That plan expired in January, 2011.

The property was re-evaluated on March 28, 2011.

Once a develop-ment begins on the property, McIntosh

expects other projects to follow.

“I think it’s going to be a catalyst for a lot of development in Summerland,” he said.

Mayor Janice Per-rino said she is wait-

ing for the project to proceed.

“I’m anxious to see this go forward, but I’m just as pleased there’s not a hole in the ground,” she said.

If the project should come to an

end now, she said the municipality would seek another developer.

“It will happen,” she said. “It’s just not happening as quickly as any of us would like.”

HUNTERS HILL

As interest continues to grow in the Hunters Hill Neighbourhood Plan process underway in Summerland, the opportunities for public input are still available, and we continue to encourage your questions and comments.

Some Hunters Hill Conversations 1) “You mean the 156 acres is not in the ALR?”That’s right, and because the 156 acres is not in the ALR, applications to REMOVE land from the Agricultural Land Reserve are not required, and that’s a good thing!

2) “Is there any arable land on Hunters Hill?”Yes, some portions of Hunters Hill may offer viable growing conditions, so the neighbourhood plan may offer more than just another neighbourhood of residential housing.

3) “So, Hunters Hill is just across from Sumac Ridge?”“Yes, and because Hunters Hill is across from Sumac Ridge Estates (Winery, Golf & Housing), there are some pretty amazing views out over vineyards and Okanagan Lake!” 4) “What about walking trails and hiking trails for the Hunters Hill area?”Our professional planners are considering the possibility of trails for parts of the Hunters Hill Area Plan.

VICTORIA – Advanced Edu-cation Minister Amrik Virk has offered some advice for stu-dents heading for post-second-ary education this fall.

In a commentary sent to B.C. newspapers, Virk reminded students that his task “is to ensure post-secondary stu-dents obtain the experience and qualifica-tions needed to put a pay-cheque in their back pocket.”

B.C. is forecast to have one million jobs to fill by 2020, through a combination of retirements and economic growth.

More than 40 per cent of them will require trades and technical training, and for stu-dents, likely a move north.

“My advice to students is to look at where the jobs are based and tailor their education and training to match,” Virk wrote. “Our population is concentrat-ed in the Lower Mainland and southern Vancouver Island, but as a resource-based economy, many directly and indirectly related jobs are located else-where.”

That’s not the only blunt message for students deciding on a career. While defending his ministry’s spending plans in the recent legislature ses-sion, Virk described some of the problems that are entrenched.

Parents, particularly in immigrant communities, push their children towards medi-

cine, law, dentistry or engineer-ing, he noted. Students them-selves gravitate toward areas that are familiar to them, such as teaching.

B.C. universities graduated 2,000 new teachers last year. Another 850 arrived from out of province and were licensed to teach in B.C.

During the same year, the B.C. school system hired 800 teachers. And many of those jobs were outside metropolitan areas.

It’s been hammered into us by the B.C. government’s endless “jobs plan” advertis-ing, and a similar campaign by Ottawa, that more students need to focus on trades and resource industries.

Virk acknowledges that his budget contains another $1 million for advertising, the same as last year, much of it to reinforce the need to fill skilled jobs.

But he danced around the question of whether there will be spaces in technical pro-grams.

NDP critics say the waiting list for these kinds of programs at Kwantlen University and B.C. Institute of Technology are running between a year and three years.

And they have frequently noted that advanced educa-tion spending is budgeted to decline by $42 million over the next three years.

Virk said post-secondary institutions working with industry have produced 456 additional seats in high-demand programs for this year. It’s a start.

In July, Premier Christy Clark joined the chorus of premiers protesting Ottawa’s plan to claw back $300 million in federal training money to provinces, for its new employ-er-driven Canada Jobs Grant. Clark and New Brunswick Premier David Alward were assigned to find an alternative to this drastic shift and report back in the fall.

As usual, the NDP spent lots of time grilling Virk about stu-dent debt and the alleged need to reduce it.

Ministry statistics show that about 30 per cent of students take out loans from the federal-provincial program, and the average is $20,000.

One of the latest changes is a program of grants that go toward student debt as a reward for those who complete their chosen program.

With 23,000 students col-lecting $41 million in grants, it might be working.

For all the fuss about student debt, students pay only about a third of costs.

The rest is on taxpayers, whether it produces any useful education or not.

Virk is under instructions to review the student loan pro-gram “to find further improve-ments to meet students’ needs.” Given the magnitude of the gap between what skills our education system produces and what the economy needs, a larger shift in priorities is needed.

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

A shooting incident during the intermission at the bull riding compet i t ion resulted in an injury, but it could have been far worse.

A pellet, fired by a perform-er during the intermission, struck and wounded an 11-year-old girl. Had the gun been fired in a slightly different direction, it could have resulted in much more serious injury.

Measures must be taken so something like this cannot happen in the future.

Summerland and Toyokoro, Japan have had an official sister city agreement in place since 1996.

Over the years, Toyoko-ro residents have visited Summer land and Summer-landers have visited Toyokoro num-erous times.

Next month, another Summer-land delegation will visit Toyokoro.

For both communities, the cul-tural benefits alone make the rela-tionship worth preserving.

ourpickDelayed

developmentThe Wharton Street pro-

ject, a proposed multi-stor-ey, multi-phase development near Summerland’s down-town, has the potential to spur some much needed eco-nomic growth.

That’s why any delay in the process is cause for concern.

A year ago, on Aug. 16, 2012, the Memorandum of Understanding document was signed for the project.

At the time, developers expected to have the ground-breaking in February and the first building completed early in 2014.

All this was put on hold when the proponent of the project had serious health problems earlier this year.

A delay for this reason is understandable, but it is still frustrating for those who are waiting on this project.

The developers remain interested in proceeding with the project, although the timeline is changing.

For those who have lived in Summerland for the last decade, the delay brings back memories of an earlier development pro-posal for the same site.

Mike Rink, a Kamloops-based developer had expressed interest in the project, although an agree-ment was not signed. His plan expired in January, 2011.

For years, the idea of a development on the site has been discussed. In addition to providing housing just steps from the downtown core, the development would pro-vide new and larger spaces to house the Summerland branch of the Okanagan Regional Library and the Summerland Museum. Both facilities are operating out of cramped quarters.

The need for this develop-ment or something similar has not gone away. If anything, it is more pressing now than it was a few years ago, when the concept was first presented.

We do not wish to see the project rushed. It is important enough to demand a careful, thorough approach.

Still, the waiting is not easy for any of us.

The early years

Roadwork in progressNow that the third roundabout and accompanying roadwork is complete, the municipality will be turning its attention to the Garnett Valley area. Maintaining our roads is a never ending process. In the 1940s roadwork was also a necessity and though the equipment was not quite as technically advanced as today’s machinery, the fuel costs were significantly lower. In this photo, John Manning and his co-worker are levelling a road near the Experimental Farm using a four-horsepower grader, fueled by hay.

Dear Editor:At 6 a.m. Mountain

Daylight Time, Aug. 14, 1948, the CNR passenger train from Toronto pulled in at Edmonton, Alberta after 21⁄2 days in a sleeper car for me.

So I’ve survived 65 years in Western Can-ada, the last 25 right

here at Legion Village in Summerland.

So what’s new? In Motor City, U.S.A., Detroit, they are seek-ing bankruptcy pro-tection.

In 1948, what was good for General Motors was good for America.

In Canada’s

national capital in 1948, long serving Anglophone Prime Minister William Lyon MacKenzie King was being fol-lowed by the Franco-phone and avuncular Louis St. Laurent.

In Ottawa today, when it comes to staffing the Prime

Minister’s Office and approving senators, masculine or femin-ine, we need some-one sharper than Ste-phen Harper.

Locally, a recent editorial noted that a new soicio-economic survey named West Vancouver the best place in B.C. in which

to live while Summer-land came in second. “Not good enough” said the headline.

Your front page on Aug. 15 reports “Third roundabout opened.”

Maybe it is now time for a new “read-about” space. Sum-merland’s library

building sadly lags behind other B.C. communities.

Now “too old to die young,” life has been excellent here for me. Ornery enough to live independently, I’m saving federal taxpayers around $3,500 a month and aging more slowly

than others 20 years younger.

Many thanks to those of “the greatest generation of the 20th century” who formed the Summerland Sen-ior Citizens’ Housing Society way back in 1972.

Numerous changes evident over past 65 years

Trail open to all people, not all usesDear Editor:As a response to

the Summerland ATV Club’s letter “Motor-ized vehicles on trail” in last week’s Review, we would like to offer the views of the Sum-merland Trans Can-ada Trail Society.

We agree with Phil-ip Young that the trail is for all people, how-ever it is not meant for all uses.

Owners of quads and dirt bikes are welcome to hike and cycle the Trans Can-ada Trail.

But we ask them to enjoy riding their machines on the extensive network of motorized trails in our region that are clearly separated from the TCT and KVR trails.

The KVR part of the Trans Canada Trail was presented as a provincial “Rails to Trails” strategy in 1991.

That’s when the rails were taken out. Until then, the CPR declared that it was illegal to trespass on these tracks.

The commitment to non-motorized use was reaffirmed with the Spirit 2010 cam-paign (www.spir-it2010.net.)

This commitment is supported by the Government of Can-ada, Trails BC, the TCT, the Regional District of Okanagan Similkameen and the Chambers of Com-merce throughout the Okanagan Valley.

It is true that the

Summerland TCT Society does not own the trail, but we have paid for and signed a stewardship agree-ment with the prov-incial government for the stretch over crown land, which goes from the muni-cipal boundary part way to Faulder and to 1.5 km east of Osprey Lake. The rest of the trail within the muni-cipality is managed by agreement with the municipality. We have done most of the fund-raising for

the parts within the municipality. For the other portions, we have received dona-tions and money from the national Trans Canada Trail Foundation.

Why are so many people against ATVs and dirt bikes on the KVR and TCT trails? Here are some of the complaints that we have heard numer-ous times:

o Noise and dust near our drinking water and properties along Trout Creek.

o Danger from speeding vehicles through blind curves and narrow sections.

o Destruction of trail surfaces by ATVs with deeply ridged tires that act like grinders. Dirt bik-ers cause huge ruts doing “wheelies”.

o Damage to BC’s fledging trail-based tourism industry. Prosperous tour-ism operations exist along non-motorized trails around the world. Tourists com-ing to the Okanagan

expect the same high-quality, safe and quiet trails for their enjoy-ment.

We understand that there are com-peting interests and hope that the prov-incial dispute resolu-tion process will be successful.

Hopefully we can work out a solution for the District of Summerland and do better than Naramata, where the Work-ing Group failed to secure a mandate for all motorized users

of the trails and the carefully worked-out compromise was not accepted by the cit-izens of Naramata. 

Available govern-ment funding has been frozen until a new compromise can be worked out.

In summary: the Summerland TCT Society has dedicat-ed itself to building and maintaining a very specific 47 kilo-metres long set of trails between Sum-merland and Osprey Lake. We do not claim

ownership, but we are the recognized stew-ards providing safe, enjoyable use for ALL non-motorized trail enthusiasts. Nearby, there are hundreds of kilometres of trails available for motor-ized use. Let’s keep the two uses separ-ate. Visit www.sum-merlandtrails.ca for more information.

Dear Editor:Malibu was a

three-year-old Great Pyrenees dog. 

Her life began on a farm in Saskatchewan but her owner moved to the Okanagan and she was given to a Summerland family in late November.

Three days in her new home she escaped.

For the next nine months, this lovely white dog roamed Summerland. She’d be seen in Trout Creek then, in what seemed a blink of the eye, way out on Gar-net Valley Road.

She had no inter-est in a human bond, and surprisingly, also did not appear to con-nect with livestock or other animals.

While we received a great many calls from people spotting Malibu, we never once received a com-

plaint that she was causing problems. Not a complaint of tearing open garbage. Not a complaint of stealing food. Noth-ing.

People really tried hard to make friends with her but nothing seemed to work.

Finally I sent out a request via Facebook asking everyone to stop feeding her.

There was no doubt she was get-ting food from some-where, but I had no idea where.

The problem with people being so kind is that she could not be attracted by food.

Try as we might, we just could not catch Malibu.

I had people tell me to leave her alone – she wasn’t hurting anyone. They loved to see the majestic Malibu roaming and living life the way she

wanted to.Some people could

not be convinced of the dangers of the life she was living.

“So what!”, they’d say. “She’s happy”.

  On Aug 3, late at night, I received the news I’d been expecting for nine months.

A dog had been hit by a vehicle on the highway. We rushed out right away but when we arrived, I could see that poor Malibu was suffering dreadfully and asked the police officer to put her down, to end her pain.

With a heavy, burdened heart, I made the announce-ment on Facebook, and by telephone, to everyone who loved Malibu. Frustrated – so completely frus-trated — that the out-come was exactly as I knew it would be.

Devastated that none of us would ever feel the joy of “saving Malibu” and helping her into a new life.

There were a great many people in Sum-merland that truly loved Malibu. To them I extend my deepest condolences.

I am filled with gratitude for the people that cared enough to try catch her, to try to help me get her to safety.

To both sets of Malibu’s previous owners, I’m sorry it ended this way.

I’d like to thank those who donated toward Malibu’s cre-mation, and to Crit-teraid who is placing a granite stone on the Critteraid Farm, and where we will plant a tree in memory of her.

Signs counter-intuitiveDear Editor:When reviewing

what signage on Highway 97 is need-ed to point out where downtown and the beaches are, it should

be taken into con-sideration that it was decided some time ago that Summer-land  as a community is interested in going  green.

If that is so, elec-tronic signage would be counter-intuitive and a pretty poor example.

A large round-about at the intersec-tion of Victoria Road South and Prairie Valley Road — the third for the com-munity — is now completed.

The roundabout was officially opened on Thursday mor-ning.

“We’ve been wait-ing a long time for this day to come,” said Mayor Janice Perrino.

The cost of the pro-ject was $3.34 million. This cost included $600,000 from the Gas Tax Fund and just over $54,000 from the Insurance Corporation of Brit-ish Columbia.

The rest of the cost came through muni-cipal revenues.

Along with the roundabout, work was done to provide flood protection for the area.

MP Dan Albas said the gas tax funding program helped to cover the costs of the work.

“We know that it’s going to help local residents,” he said.

The federal gas tax fund provides long-term funding for municipalities for infrastructure pro-jects.

In British Colum-bia, the funding is administered by the

Union of British Col-umbia Municipal-ities, in collaboration with the provincial and federal govern-ments.

MLA Dan Ashton said the project was the result of team-work and cooper-ation between vari-ous levels of govern-ment.

“If doesn’t happen without everyone working together,” he said.

Perrino thanked the residents, espe-cially those who live near the intersection, for their patience during the construc-tion.

“I am amazed with how few complaints we had,” she said.

The roundabout is expected to reduce congestion at the intersection.

In the past, the four-way stop at Vic-toria Road South and Prairie Valley Road was busy, especially in the mornings.

“This project will reduce congestion on the busiest cor-ridor through Sum-merland,” Perrino said.

“Current conflicts between pedes-trians, school chil-dren, vehicular and commercial traffic have been a sig-nificant concern to council.”

Roundabout completed

Ask YourDentist...

Q I noticed you had some new mint

and gum samples in the offi ce. Your hygienist told me they were good for my dry mouth. Are they better than water?

Sandy

AThe mint and gum samples we offer are 100% xylitol. Xylitol is a naturally occurring sweetener

that has been found to have huge benefi ts for your teeth. It works because the bacteria in your mouth that cause dental decay cannot metabolize xylitol, so the more xylitol you use per day, the lower the number of bacteria, which means less decay for you. It also makes the surfaces of your teeth smoother preventing the bacteria from sticking on them and gives you more saliva to help protect your teeth.

The people that can really benefi t from xylitol are those with a high risk for tooth decay, like patients with dry mouth, diabetes, root exposure (recession), kids, and new moms. Using xylitol throughout the day will lower your risk for decay. Studies show that new moms who chewed xylitol gum for the fi rst 2 years drastically lowered their child’s risk for decay. That is a great staring point in life for your child!

Xylitol products include mints, gum, mouth spray, lollipops, toothpaste, and mouth rinses. It needs to be 100% xylitol to be therapeutic so make sure to look closely at the label. If you have any questions about choosing the right product, we are more than happy to help.

We’re here to help in any way we can. Feel free to call, stop by, or send us an e-mail message. We are always accepting new patients and I’d be happy to answer your question in the next article (anonymously if desired). Have a great week!

Without water, vegetation – includ-ing our food crops – stands little chance of survival in the heat of an Okanagan sum-mer.

Did you know, B.C. farmers meet about 50 per cent of our province’s food needs? They are vital to producing local, healthy food for our population that con-tinues to grow.

In the Okanagan, our numbers are pro-jected to increase 45 per cent by 2036 to more than 260,000 people. For each one of those additions to our population, we

need more food – which, in turn, needs more water to grow.

Our farmers mar-kets and fruit stands are ripe with won-derful fresh fruits and vegetables. To ensure this continues, it’s important that we make sure there’s enough water for the farmers to irrigate their crops. As the sun gets hotter and the ground gets drier, some might think it’s time to turn on the taps more often. Instead, we need to help farmers by doing our part to con-serve water.

In fact, with gov-

ernment assist-ance and rebates, a growing number of Okanagan farmers are installing water meters, using drip irrigation and micro-jet sprinklers, and installing soil-mois-ture sensors to ensure they’re using only the water they need. But in the summer, we start to compete for water.

If you have a vege-table garden, make sure to be Water-Wise – using effective and efficient water-ing practices, paying attention to when and how much you water. Find tips at

www.MakeWater-Work.ca.

If we use less water, there’s more for the farmers to keep their crops growing. That means healthy fruits and vegetables for our growing popula-tion.

An expansion at the Penticton Region-al Hospital will pro-ceed, but it will not be completed for sev-eral years.

Earlier, Minister of Health Terry Lake said residents of the South Okanagan should not expect the expansion in this term. But that com-ment does not mean the project has been shelved.

“What I meant to say is it wouldn’t be open in this term, it wouldn’t be finished. We are looking for-ward to getting the business plan early next year,” Lake said in Penticton earlier this month.

“I fully expect within a couple of years we will be getting this project underway.”

Janice Perrino,

chair of the Oka-nagan-Similkameen Regional Hospital District, said much work is needed before the project is completed.

A business plan for the project is to be completed by May, 2014.

After than, the plan goes before the province in order for construction to move forward.

The construction phase alone could take three to five years, Perrino said.

The best case esti-mate is for the work to be completed in 2017, but it is far more likely the work will be finished in 2018 or 2019.

Although the time-line is several years, Perrino said the work will remain a priority.

“No one is going to let this lag behind,” she said.

Summerland Review Thursday, August 22, 2013 L i f e s t y L e www.summerlandreview.com 13

Cherry harvestDaniel Braithwaite picks cherries at Keith and Jan Carlson’s orchard off Garnett Valley Road. The cherry harvest is now nearly completed.

S u m m e r l a n d enjoys a long stand-ing active and recip-rocal relationship with her Japanese sis-ter city, Toyokoro.  

Toyokoro is a small agriculturally based community on the north island of Hok-kaido which puts it almost directly across from Portland Ore-gon when you look at it from a latitudinal perspective on the map.

This September, 14 adult residents and five Summerland youth will embark on an amazing adven-ture as they head for Japan to represent Summerland in Toyo-koro.  

The 12-day excur-sion will depart Kelowna, drop down

into Vancouver, cross the Pacific where the travellers will make a quick connection in South Korea before the final leg of their air journey to Sap-poro, Japan.  

After a couple of days to adjust in Sap-poro the delegation will continue by train for the scenic three-hour cross country trek to the city of Obihiro where they’ll be met by their hosts from Toyokoro which is less than an hour away by car.

By this point in the trip, delegates will have crossed an inter-national date line, experienced an over-seas long-haul flight, discovered the cos-mopolitan diversity found in Japan’s fifth

largest city, Sapporo, and been welcomed “home” to Toyokoro by some of the most hospitable people they’ll ever have the good fortune to meet.

The residents of Toyokoro will host the Summerland del-egation for a total of five days and nights that will be filled with cultural excur-sions, formal celebra-tions that recognize the ongoing com-mitment of our two communities and members of both city councils, invitations into the lives and the homes of our Japa-nese extended family, and memories that will last a lifetime.

The sister city excursions travel biannually to Japan and on alternate years there is a delegation from Toyokoro that visits Summerland.

Summerland resi-dents and youth trav-elling to Toyokoro are self-funded and par-ticipate in some basic cross cultural educa-tion in preparation for the travel prior to departing for Japan.

The benefits of this relationship to Sum-merland and her resi-dents are abundant.

Ask anyone who has made the trek and they’ll tell you that it was the trip of a lifetime, that they experienced a welcome more sin-cere than they imag-ined possible, and that they encourage anyone who is even remotely interested in travelling to Japan, to access this oppor-tunity as it provides a glimpse inside the lives of the real peo-ple and a taste of the true traditional cul-ture that comes only with a visit to a place where the people open their homes and their hearts to you.

In addition to the

potential for this cul-tural exchange, there are also economic benefits present. Toyokoro regularly purchases ‘made in Summerland’ prod-uct in honour of their town’s Sister City commitment.

During the bian-nual visits from Toyo-koro their delegates also embrace the opportunity to ‘shop local’ in support of our business commu-nity.

Toyokoro also continues to employ one of Summer-land’s own youth as an assistant English teacher in Toyokoro.

This year, Anna Marshall arrived in Toyokoro to begin her year as an AET in July.

Readers will have the opportunity to get a glimpse into her life in Toyokoro through her letters from Toyokoro that she will be submit-ting to the Review for regular publication.

The economic ben-efits are good and the cultural experiences are great. There is one more benefit that occurs when our Mayor and Council have the opportunity to meet with their counterparts in Toyo-koro.

They have the chance to look at common challenges our communities face and to discuss the cre-ative solutions that each has employed.

This international perspective is unique and not available in any other format. It provides our mayor and council with information they might not get from any other source, it enables them to see issues through new eyes, and to explore new ways of doing business.

If you’re interest-

ed in learning more about the Summer-land Sister City Soci-ety, contact Darlene Forsdick at 250-494-9489 or Lorrie Forde at 250-494-9644.

There are opportuni-ties to host a Japanese student in your home (average length of stay is five days), to travel to Japan with the next delegation,

to volunteer as a host when Toyokoro next visits Summerland, or to be mentored into a director’s posi-tion on the Sister City Society Board.

Pikes qualify for provincials

A Summerland mother and daugh-ter were part of an Okanagan contingent travelling to Hong Kong for an inter-national karate tour-nament.

Rita Becker and her daughter Katie Beck-er, students at the Taneda Karate Dojo, were at the Soke Cup earlier this month.

The competition is the top international competition for the Chito-ryu style of karate.

The event is held every three years.

“It’s the world championship for our style of karate,” said Kim Sander of Taneda Karate.

Katie Becker has been in karate since she was young. Her mother, Rita Becker,

joined less than three years ago.

“She was a little reluctant to start,” Sander said, “but the expectation for anyone in our dojo is to do their best. The whole premise of our sport is based on respect and honour.”

Chris Taneda, the head of Taneda Kar-ate Dojo, is a seventh-degree black belt and is considered the top in Canada for the group’s style of kar-ate.

In the past, others from Taneda Karate have competed at the Soke Cup, including Coulson Boothe and Claire Boothe who participated in Nor-way in 2007. At that event, Claire Boothe was named the junior grand champion.

The Agur Lake Camp Society pre-sents Justin Hines in Concert with Spe-cial Guests Ash and Bloom on Saturday, Aug. 31 at 7 p.m. at Centre Stage Theatre. This benefit concert, in Support of Agur Lake Camp Society, is part of Justin Hines’ Vehicle of Change Tour.

Hines has been doing a North Amer-ican fundraising tour since early sum-mer in support of various charities and non-profits across the continent.

Tickets for the Sum-merland performance are available at The Sweet Tooth on Vic-toria Road North.

Even though Hines grew up singing in church at his grand-mother’s behest, his realization that music is not only his path, but also his destiny came at the most unlikely of places — at a Toronto Raptors’ basketball game in front of thousands, 15 years ago.

Hines, then 14 years old, won a vocal competition to sing the Canadian and U.S national anthems at the game and his world opened up before him.

“In that moment, it all seemed possible,” he recalls. “That per-

formance eliminated any stage fright.”

Thrown in the deep end, Hines, who has performed profession-ally ever since, real-ized he could not only survive, but thrive.

But then again, Hines has thrived all his life against odds that would daunt someone with a less indomitable spirit.

Hines has Larsen Syndrome, a joint dis-location condition that has him permanently using a wheelchair.

“The reality is I don’t really look at my situation as that big a deal,” he says. “We all have things that challenge us, just some people’s are a little more visible in the forefront. Mine is very apparent, whereas others wear it on the inside.”

Hines has per-formed across the globe, throughout Eur-ope, China, the Mid-dle East, South Africa

and North America. He performed at the Beijing Olympics sup-ported by Sheila E, the Vancouver Olym-pics and the Pan Am Games in Mexico.

Hines released his fifth studio album “How We Fly” this spring. His home in the music world is not cut and dry.

“Most people assume there are challenges to being a performer in a wheel-chair and indeed there are some, but when an audience sees you climb on stage via a giant metal ramp, you kind of have their atten-tion,” says Hines.

event you feel should be included in the Arts Palette or on the Arts Council’s online calendar, please email artspalette@summerlandarts.com or call 250-404-3225. summerlandarts.com and twitter.com/artspalette.

Paintings and sculptureAlexandra Edmonds, left, and Lynden Beesley show some of the works in their exhibit, Deifying the Diva, which opened on Aug. 15 at the Summerland Art Gallery. The exhibit continues until Sept. 28. Edmonds’ portraits illustrate characters of ancient Greek mythol-ogy, asking what these goddesses would look like if they were mod-ern women. Beesley’s powder coated steel figures and bronze masks create protec-tresses. The show can be seen at the gallery Tuesday to Saturday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
