Economic development opportunities soughtChanges made within planning department

by John Arendt

Changes to the muni-cipality’s development services department will allow municipal planner Ian McIntosh to devote his time to economic growth opportunities.

Municipal administra-tor Tom Day said a new planner has been hired to take care of day-to-day planning issues, freeing McIntosh’s time for eco-nomic work.

“We had no resources allocated to further eco-nomic development,” he said.

Mayor Janice Perrino said McIntosh is ideal for the role since he is already the initial contact with potential develop-ers.

In addition, McIntosh will examine directional signage into the com-munity, take inventory of municipally-owned lands and examine the opportunities for those lands and look at ways of marking Summer-land to those who do not work here but wish to live here.

“These are people who work elsewhere and are looking to have their fam-ilies taken care of here,” he said.

He added that the municipality will con-tinue to work to attract businesses.

“We recognize they aren’t coming here as quickly as we’d like,” he said.

There is still interest in Summerland as a busi-ness location.

A bylaw in the works will rezone lands in the Bentley Road area for business development.

Earlier, the munici-pality had an economic development officer on staff, but that position was eliminated in Nov-ember, 2010.

At the time, Perrino said the cut was neces-

sary and the community could not afford the pos-ition.

“This position, with its current model, is not working,” she said at the time.

She added that the municipality would rethink ways to meet the needs of economic growth.

The change in McIntosh’s duties and the hiring of a new person in the planning department are both necessary, Per-rino said.

“We definitely need another planner,” she said.

Day said McIntosh’s position is not the same as the former economic development officer ’s role, since the focus of the earlier position was to bring businesses into the community.

Graduation dayA total of 118 students from Summerland Secondary School received their diplomas during the graduation ceremony on Friday. In addition, community awards and bursaries worth close to $85,000 were presented. For more information, please see Page 11.

Dear Editor:Here is my perspective as a family member who

has a mother living in Summerland Seniors’

Village for nearly five years and from my

experience as a volunteer.

First, my mom lived in assisted/independent

living but now lives in one of the 80 residential

care beds. There are 120 assisted/independent

living suites with 18 being funded by Interior

Health. There are up to 200 residents living at

Summerland Seniors’ Village. Not only are there

150 full time and part time staff who come up and

down the valley to work at Summerland Seniors’

Village but also a dedicated group of volunteers

within the recreation department who help with

the many activities offered to all residents, six

days a week. I am at the facility almost on a daily basis,

either visiting or as a volunteer. The residents I

have met are a great and fun-loving group of

people. The staff are very caring and accessible any

time of the day or night to family members.

Family members should be involved.

If you cannot reach a resident when calling and

you become concerned, you can call the LPN’s or

aide’s direct number, which is readily accessible

to all family members.

I know this because when I have not been able

to reach my family member, I have called staff.

They look into my concern immediately, day or

night. There is a family council which meets once a

month. At our meetings, all are pleased with the

quality of care our family member is receiving.

Yes, there were some issues which needed to

be addressed. These issues are being addressed

or have been addressed and improved upon. The

morale is great among staff, as far as I can see,

and they are pleased with the improvements

being made. Some residents have lived here since the day

it opened. Some staff have worked here since the

day it opened nearly seven years ago.

It takes special people to work in a care facility

with the many different needs that residents

require. I have the utmost respect for these caregivers.

I know if anyone has questions you would be

welcomed at Summerland Seniors’ Village to

speak with staff and residents or go on a tour.

Staff are caring and accessible

A new municipal treasurer will begin work at the munici-pality next week.

Lorrie Coates will begin her role as Summerland’s chief financial officer on July 8.

She has a career in municipal finance extending more than 20 years.

Her present role last role, in Nanaimo, is as a senior finan-cial officer and acting chief financial officer.

In March, Ken Ostraat resigned from the role of chief financial officer for the municipality. An interim treasurer was hired on a three-month contract begin-ning in early April.

South Okanagan hit by weather extremesby Joe FriesBlack Press

Even the weather-man is having a hard time believing the soggy weather that flooded some area basements this week is about to give way to what could be rec-ord-breaking heat.

“We’re looking at the forecasts and we’re talking about temperatures across the Southern Inter-ior in the mid-30s just around the cor-ner and expecting it to last for a signifi-cant period of time,”

Environment Canada meteorologist Doug Lundquist told repor-ters on a conference call Thursday.

“We hardly can believe that we can go from the cool, wet weather that we’ve had to the really hot weather in such a short time.”

That wet weather peaked on Wednes-day when a late-after-noon deluge opened up over the south end of the city and flooded basements, garages and yards in the area of Wilson Street near Green

Avenue in Penticton.Len Robson, the

city’s public works manager, said crews and equipment were dispatched to help pump out water from in and around 10 homes.

“There was a mas-sive amount of rain-fall that came down in a short duration,” he said.

“The storm sew-ers take all they can take, then the rest of it starts building up on the road surfaces until it spills into the low points.”

Environment Can-

ada recorded eight millimetres of rain at the airport Wed-nesday, although the flooded area appeared to receive much more.

Such brief, prob-lematic downpours happen every year, “but not to that intensity. That was just about one of the worst I’ve seen here,” Robson said.

“In that case (Wed-nesday), we kind of had to wait until the storm sewers got rid of the water before we could even pump the yards out,

because there was nowhere for it to go. There was just so much water that came so quickly.”

By this time next week, however, people might be wishing for a little rain as hot temper-atures are forecast.

The hot spell is expected to last for up to two weeks. Lundquist said a three-month projec-tion shows “a slightly

higher chance” that the summer will be hotter than average, although the coming spell by itself could make that prediction come true.

The meteorologist organized the con-ference call to help media warn the pub-lic to be prepared for the impending hot stretch and offer tips on how to stay safe in severe weather.

L u n d q u i s t

implored people to ensure they stay hydrated, resist the urge to leave pets in vehicles even for a few moments, and check in on elderly people.

He said the public should also be aware of the threats posed by heat, wind, rain and lighting, and be ready to seek cover quickly: “When thunder roars, go indoors.”

Estate Litigation

It is a sad sign of the times that Estate litigation is one of the fastest growing area of law. This is partly due to the vast amount of wealth that the leading edge of the "Baby Boomers" is now transferring through to their offspring in their estates. Where money is involved unfortunately the bad side of human nature can take over. This wrongful behavior can take many forms, from one sibling taking over control of his or her parents affairs by a Power of Attorney and channeling the money to their own benefit to using undue influence to shape their parents Will in their favour.

Equally as important in creating litigation has been the proliferation of second marriages and spilt families. Each side of the family can have very different legal rights to an estate depending on the circumstances. Great care and consideration must be taken when providing for your children and your spouse's children. It is critical to seek advice from a Lawyer with training and experience in drafting wills in these circumstances.

As municipal staff and council con-tinue to examine residential water billing methods, the latest set of mock bills have been sent out.

The latest billing model, which has been revised since the last open house on billing in spring,

begins with a base fee of $24 for the water service, followed by billing for all water used.

The cubic metre charge will change, depending on the amount used.

The lowest bill-ing rate, at 26 cents a cubic metre, allows up to 25 cubic metres at that rate during the cooler months,

but rising during the growing season.

The allotment begins to increase in mid-April and the largest amounts are for water used from June 16 to July 15 and from July 16 to Aug. 15.

“We’re trying to make changes for the better and we’re listening to the com-munity,” said muni-

cipal administrator Tom Day.

The changes fol-lowing the last open

house allow more water at the low rate during the growing

season.Council and muni-

cipal staff have been examining billing

rates for at least the last two years as the community moves

from a flat fee for water to a metered system.

Day said the time is needed because of the nature of Sum-merland’s water sys-tem.

“The water sys-tem in Summerland has historically been complex,” he said.

Those who use more than the lower priced amount will be charged $1 a cubic metre for all water above the low rate allotment.

Council hopes to have the billing sys-

tem in place by the beginning of 2014, by Mayor Janice Perrino said the metering system of billing will not be introduced until council is satis-fied with the struc-ture.

“We are hoping to start by Jan. 1, but if it doesn’t look right, we won’t,” she said.

Once the residen-tial system has been determined, council and municipal staff will move on to the billing structure for agricultural proper-ties.

Municipality mails mock water bills

VICTORIA – There are nine new faces in Premier Christy Clark’s cabinet, seven of them elected to the B.C. legislature for the first time on May 14.

They have been handed some of the hottest problems, and Clark’s march-ing orders in “mandate let-ters” for each ministry. And this is the start of a four-year term, when u n p o p u l a r reforms are attempted.

Take Amrik Virk, the former RCMP inspector from Surrey who’s suddenly in charge of advanced education.

His mandate includes: “Review the student loan program to make recommen-dations for improvement to ensure the loan program is meeting the needs of today’s students.”

Virk must also set targets to “match the skills we need with the skills we are graduat-ing” and require post-second-ary schools to “ensure student seats are being filled.”

B.C. can’t afford to keep cranking out university grads with $50,000 in debt and no job prospects in a system that’s subsidized 65 per cent.

Virk will be working closely with Education Minister Peter Fassbender, who must “ensure seamless transitions” from high school to the workforce for post-secondary trades and apprenticeships.

In his spare time, Fassbender is to overhaul the school district

bargaining agency and achieve a 10-year peace with the teach-ers’ union. 

Justice Minister Suzanne Anton has worked as a Crown prosecutor, so she’ll have some insight into the system that still grapples with Stanley Cup rioters from two sum-mers ago.

Her orders are to get traf-fic tickets and other admin-istrative penalties out of the courts, keep working on inte-grating police fiefdoms and generally treat the constipa-tion that afflicts law enforce-ment today.

Oh, and get that new Oka-nagan prison built, to relieve a system that has inmates living in tents. And examine whether to spin off the Liquor Distribu-tion Branch into a Crown cor-poration, a possible prelude to selling it.

Transportation Minister Todd Stone’s first test was a grilling by the Vancouver media. Yup, this Kamloops hayseed has been to the Big Smoke a few times, ridden that fancy SkyTrain and  taken  the odd ferry, too.

Now he has to impose the ferry route reductions that have been worked on by two previ-ous ministers, and push Metro Vancouver through a referen-dum on ways to fund its own transit. If more tolls or taxes are going to be implemented, now is the time.

Coralee Oakes has made a political leap from Quesnel city hall to the Ministry of Com-munity, Sport and Cultural Development.

One of her key tasks is to

invent a framework for a “rural dividend” from liquefied nat-ural gas development in north-western B.C.

Oakes has to figure out how to “better provide provincial support” to sport and cultural organizations, but do it with no new money.

All ministers have strict instructions to balance their lean budgets and take part in the latest “core review” to iden-tify government functions that can be sold, delegated or shut down.

New Minister of Internation-al Trade  Richmond’s Teresa Wat has to find a way to con-tinue the growth of lumber and other exports to China, India and elsewhere on the Pacific Rim.

On top of that, the always-delicate softwood lumber agreement with the U.S. expires in three years. The last major eruption on that front was in 2009, when B.C. cut stumpage rates for remote coastal areas to give communities much-need-ed employment.

The Americans were livid, just as they were with our bee-tle-kill harvesting efforts. And of  course,  the U.S.-directed environmental movement continues to target Canadian industries.

Third-term MLA John Rustad gets aboriginal rela-tions, with specific instructions to deal with gas and perhaps oil pipelines through his Nechako Lakes constituency.

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

In recent weeks, we have noticed too many reports of impaired drivers on the roads.

S u c h b e h a v i o u r makes no sense, especially since British Columbia has some tough penalties in place for those who drive while impaired by drugs or alcohol.

The tough penalties are need-ed since an impaired driver is a risk to everyone else on the road and a motor vehicle accident can have serious consequences.

For those who attended the Canada Day celebration in Memor-ial Park on Mon-day, it was an enjoyable com-munity event and a chance to celebrate our country.

The event was organized by the Summerland branch of the Royal Canadian Legion and fea-tured plenty of entertainment and activities.

The volunteers deserve credit and thanks for all their hard work in making the event happen.

ourpickEconomic

focusA restructuring at munici-

pal hall means the municipality once again has a person on staff to examine economic growth opportunities for the community.

In November, 2010, the economic development offi-cer position was eliminated. The position was seen as an expense the municipality could not justify. The focus of that position had been to attract businesses — a dif-ficult task during an economic downturn.

While the new position continues to examine eco-nomic opportunities, the focus has changed.

Instead of working primar-ily to bring businesses to the community, one of the tasks will be to attract people who wish to live here, even if they work elsewhere. This is a sig-nificant change from past years.

Today, however, there are plenty of economic oppor-tunities which do not rely on one’s employer being physic-ally present in the community.

There are some who work in the oil industry, spending time in northern Alberta but wishing to have their homes elsewhere. Others who work on short-term or temporary projects around the world do not wish to relocate each time they take on a new assignment. And there are those who have positions which allow them to work remotely.

Whether this form of mar-keting will work in the long term remains to be seen.

Living here and working out of province depends on an excellent communications framework and reasonably priced transportation.

The communications framework is in place, but there is no guarantee trans-portation costs will remain close to today’s levels. Some predictions foresee rapidly rising travel costs within a few years.

The creation of a position to examine growth options was badly needed.

The model used to attract growth will need to be exam-ined and revisited regularly.

Cabinet rookies handed hot files

Page 5: Summerland Review, July 04, 2013

Dear Editor:Where do we grow

from here? Summerland coun-

cil and planner Ian McIntosh, want the community to sup-port a change to a smaller growth area on the Official Com-

munity Plan. Consultants have

been hired to gather community input and to develop growth boundary options that accommodate growth, presumably, for the life of the OCP.

About 75 people

at three work-shops were asked to describe what was most compelling about Summerland.

The consultants said the answers were remarkably con-sistent.

Access to nature

and agriculture and the small town neighbourliness of the community was the consensus of the three workshops.

They expected growth would be at replacement pace: that density would

occur in the down-town core with some additional in Lower-town, Trout Creek and South Victoria and that agricultural land, in general, and therefore Agricultur-al Land Reserve land, in particular, would

be retained.I have heard this

view at public hear-ings, open house presentations of the municipality and public meetings on development issues yet councils have consistently approved rezoning and development applications opposed by the community.

So, no surprise, when the consult-ants presented three growth boundary proposals and two required that lands now zoned ALR be rezoned for dense development.

Participants at the presentation ques-tioned why the pro-posals did not follow community input that had stressed the value of agricultural land to the future of Summerland as a small town with a beautiful, outdoor, quality of life. Ian McIntosh said that to get density down-town the “trade off” was losing ALR prop-erties.

There was a zon-ing review in 2012 which gave single family, sewered lots the ability to subdiv-ide, allowed multi family zones and allowed for carriage houses.

Therefore the downtown core already has the tools for densifying: sew-ered corridors con-necting to downtown

already have the tools for densifying.

Community mem-bers suggested a fourth option com-bining density in the town core, retaining ALR land and focus-ing on Summerland’s existing strengths (agriculture, retirees, tourism, sport and others) when plan-ning for growth.

The community vision is not a Sum-merland city sur-rounded by rural agriculture.

The vision is a patchwork.

If it is not a patch-work then ALR lands will continue to be included in an ever-expanding down-town core as the growth boundary is amended and re-amended.

The bylaws approving higher density development and the areas where this density can occur have already been passed so it appears that the only function of revising the growth boundary is to cre-ate an opportunity to remove certain agri-cultural properties from ALR designa-tion by amending the OCP.

Once again, an expensive consult-ant is used to gather “public input” which was never needed but will be cited as vital to the decision.

The early years

Ready for the GranFondoChances are slim that you’ll see a bike like this one in the GranFondo Axel Merckx on Sunday, but in 1934 this was a pretty classy set of wheels. Len Mountford looks quite proud of his shiny modern bicycle and probably would have been keen to participate in a “Big Ride.” The third annual GranFondo Axel Merckx this weekend means that thousands of bicycles will be on our roads, so whether you’re a rider, driver, pedestrian or spectator, please be extra careful and make it a fun, safe ride.

celebrate the fact that the day is done and you can move onto other things.

It means recon-necting with friends, and enjoying activ-ities such as boating, riding, camping, and life — something we all should strive to do.

Had the person or people with the final say for entries into the yearbook taken

the time to ask, that is what he or she would have been told.

Stereotyping our young people is a mistake.

There are 22 stu-dents that were able to enter the trades programs in January this year from the graduating class.

These are young people who have a vision and the drive

to get out there and get the training they will require to get them into the job mar-ket and be productive adults that contribute to our society.

They have taken the next step and they should be proud.

They are working harder now than ever and succeeding.

However, some-where in the system,

the powers that be seem to interpret things differently. One has to wonder what the 20 students that had their grad write-ups and comments edited out actually said — not surprising-ly many of these are students that went into the Trade programs.

Surely there would have been ones that did not get them in on

time; but how many had comments that were not deemed good enough or “appropri-ate” taken out?

We are try-ing to groom our young people to be independent-think-ing, productive, responsible adults.

Give them the cred-it that they deserve and have earned.

I would like to

congratulate all the graduates of 2013.

And yes – it is 5’o’clock somewhere and the rest of your 24 hours is ahead of you.

So grab life by the horns and ride it wherever it takes you.

Like some wise young men I know would say “git r done.”

Dear Editor:It was a remarkable

Mutt Strut of 2013 on Saturday, June 1. 

Thanks everybody for coming out and

supporting the work that Critteraid does to help those ani-mals that seem to fall between the cracks. 

It is always amaz-ing to see how much fun the dogs have strutting their stuff along Main Street in Summerland while the onlookers cheer and applaud. 

This is a day when the dogs know they are special and it pulls at the old heart strings when a dog realizes that the people are thrilled to see them.

Our pledgers, our

donors, our strutters — all so appreciated and valued more than words can express.  We raised just over $5,000. It is that support that

enables our volunteers to do the work they do to ensure the animals in our care receive vet-erinary care, proper nutrition and a life free

of anxiety.  Well done every-

body.Deborah Silk

It is sometimes easy to think that businesses in a small town may have more to learn from large corporations than the other way around. Perhaps that used to be the case, but not anymore.

Thanks to technol-ogy that allows their customers to be more connected to each other, large compan-ies are learning to behave the way small town businesses always have: know-ing their custom-ers personally and responding to their needs.

In smaller com-munities, “word of mouth” adver-tising has always been a mainstay of a successful business. Now, with the rise of review sites like Yelp, Trip Advisor and Urban Spoon, consumers have even more ways to talk about their experi-ences with a business or product. It is in a business’ best interest to check these sites for feedback and be ready to engage with customers online.

Every day in Sum-merland, members of the community give personal refer-rals that will translate into another sale for a local business. Maybe you have a sugges-tion of a menu item at a local restaurant, a recommendation of where to get your hair cut, where to get your car or your roof fixed, or a not-to-be-missed exhibit at an art studio.

All of these are examples of how each of us contrib-

utes to what author Becky McCray (Small Town Rules) calls “a connected economy.” It is this connected economy that small towns have been championing for gen-erations, and which large corporations are now trying to emu-late.

Now, imagine you are planning a holiday. Think about how you might use online rec-ommendations, rely-ing on the community of people who have gone before you and who have kindly post-ed advice or sugges-tions based on their experiences. Visitors to Summerland will be looking for the same kinds of recommenda-tions when they come to town.

Surveys show that someone who has received bad service will tell twice as many people as they would if they received good service.

So the next time you receive great service from a local shop, or have been impressed by the product of a local manufacturer,

make a conscious decision to contrib-ute to our connected economy and go ahead and brag. Tell your friends. Tell your neighbours. If you use customer review websites, blaze a trail for new residents or visitors to Summer-land with your rec-ommendations. It will make that business owner feel great, and it could very well lead to important extra sales.

If you really want to bang the drum for your favourite busi-ness, call the Cham-ber Office and ask to be on the mail-ing list to receive a nomination form for the annual Business Awards.

As Stuart McLean (Vinyl Café) says: “We may not be big, but we’re small.” Suddenly, being small is more import-ant than ever before. The more of us who choose to champion our local businesses, the stronger the ties in our connected economy.

We always appre-ciate your feedback.  Please contact me at [email protected] or Christine Petkau at [email protected].

Arlene Fenrich is president of the Summerland Cham-ber of Economic Development and Tourism.  All of the members of the board of directors serve as volunteers.

A thorough inves-tigation of Okanagan Regional Library is underway.

Directors have approved a value for

money review of the organization, which has 29 branches.

“We want to make sure every participant is getting a return on the dollars they pro-vide,” said director Catherine Lord.

“Over time, you can get inequities based on population and assessment. It’s a valuable process.”

Director Sully

O’Sullivan also sup-ports the review.

“Our budget is $16 million annually so we have to make sure money is going to the right places,” he said.

“ W e spend a lot of money on things that to me are iffy.”

B e y o n d the value for money review, there will also be an internal

look at ORL’s organ-izational structure.

“It doesn’t mean there is anything wrong with the sys-tem. But across B.C., there is public dis-content about how money is spent and public servant wages so many commun-ities are doing this,” said Lord.

The results of the

external process will be brought to the

board in the fall and any issues that arise

will be discussed.The structural

review is expected to be a longer process

and no timeline has been determined.

Reading club activities planned

The Kettle Val-ley Railway Society in Summerland has received $13,000 for the presentation of its historic loco-motive.

The money was presented during the most recent round of community gaming grants offered by the province.

Also in the region, the Peachland Fall Fair received $3,000 for operating costs.

“The Kettle Valley Railway Society is helping to preserve our local history, putting people of all

ages in the heart of the railway experi-ence, while events like the Peachland Fall Fair showcase our region’s dedica-tion to agriculture and our love of the land,” said Penticton MLA Dan Ashton.

Across the prov-ince, 68 non-profit organization will share $2,212,640 in the latest round of grant funding.

Last year, the prov-ince distributed $135 million in gaming grants to organiza-tions throughout the province.

For the 118 gradu-ating students at Summerland Second-ary School, the school leaving exercises on Friday were a time to reflect on the past and look forward to the future.

Principal Chris Van Bergeyk said the stu-

dents have already worked hard and have made a positive impression.

“The students here before you continue to impress me at every turn,” he said. “They are a group to be proud of.”

In his address to

the graduates, sci-ence teacher Raja Gupta talked about the lessons which can be learned from the children’s tele-vision program Sesa-me Street and from renowned scientist Albert Einstein. Both have simple yet pro-

found messages, he said.

“Try to keep learn-ed with all that you are,” he said. “There’s a great deal of beauty and ease in simpli-city.”

Va l e d i c t o r i a n s Susan Watkins and Matthew Jones

looked back on their memories from ele-mentary school and middle school to the present.

“We’ve got so much talent in us,” Jones said.

“It’s time to start living a little,” Wat-kins said. “It’s time to take time, to find time and to make time.”

The graduation ceremonies were also an opportun-ity for individuals and organizations to present scholarships and bursaries to the students.

Community organ-izations donated close to $85,000 to the graduating stu-dents, in addition to the bursaries and scholarships offered to students from vari-ous universities and colleges.

“The support from this community is truly amazing,” Van Bergeyk said.

A total of 118 students received their diplomas from Summerland Secondary School.

Science teacher Raja Gupta gave the address to the graduates.

Greg Nixon receives the Verrier Award from Harish Anand, last year’s winner. The award is the school’s highest honour. It is accompanied by the Matsu Memorial Award.

Valedictorians Susan Watkins and Matthew Jones spoke on behalf of the graduating students.

Graduates tossed their hats to signify the end of the graduation ceremonies and the end of their high school years.

South Okanagan

The Summerland Orca swim team had four swimmers who competed at the BC AA Swimming Championship at the Victoria Saanich Com-monwealth Games Pool June 21 to 23.

Christy Wright 11, Brooklyn Parlia-ment 11, Brittany Parliament 14 and Annmarie Lang-Hodge 14 all repre-sented Summerland over the three-day competition.

“Our swimmers brought their A game to this peak year-end competi-tion. Each girl quali-fied for a final swim (top eight) and swam personal best times, said head coach Del-

ano Ducheck, “and to top it off, Annmarie Lang-Hodge stood on top of the podium, racking up two gold medals (100m and 200m breaststroke) and a silver (50m

freestyle.)“It is always a

highlight when a swimmer who epit-

omizes a true cham-pion: someone who day in and day out perseveres through training with both a positive attitude and determination wins a medal at a major

provincial competi-tion,” said Joanne Malar returning head co-coach.

Two of the young-est swimmers, Wright and Brooklyn Parlia-ment, both 11 years old, qualified for their first AA Cham-pionships.

Wright came as close as she could to a medal in the 200m freestyle, missing the podium by just .05 of a second. Parliament was eighth in the 50m freestyle.

“It was a highlight to see both girls make the top eight final. Gaining that sort of experience is invalu-able,” Malar said.

Brittany Parlia-ment, who graduated from Summerland Middle School this year, has made the butterfly stroke her art.

“Brittany has a very rare talent that she can swim the most difficult stroke with ease. That abil-ity will take her far,” Malar said.

She raced in the final of the 200m butterfly and 100m butterfly finish-ing fourth and fifth respectively with almost a 10-second improvement in time between the two races.

Orca has two final meets this sum-mer, the BC AAAs in UBC Vancouver July 4 to 7 and the Junior National’s in Montreal July 17 to 21. If you are inter-

ested in joining the Orca Swim Club, information for new swimmers can be found at www.

orcaswimclub.net. Last year there was

a waiting list for the popular four-month introductory boot-

camp for new swim-mers, and Orca is expecting the turnout to be just as high this year.

Swimming medalsAnnmarie Lang-Hodge was one of four Orca swimmers to compete in the B.C. AA Swimming Championships in Victoria. She earned two golds and a silver at the event.

Girls’ soccer team loses in semifinalBlack Press

A 5-0 loss to Coast-al FC ended the Thompson Okanagan Football Club under-13 girls season in the EA Sports B.C. Soccer Premier League.

The team lost in the semifinal the weekend of June 22 to 23 on the coast. Despite coming out hard to start,  a

quick transition and counter-attack led to two quick goals for Coastal early in the first half.

TOFC continued their play with inten-sity and generated chances, but entered the final half trailing 3-0. The Coastal FC keeper was the differ-ence making several diving saves.

“The girls played

a strong game, and did not quit despite being down,” said head coach Brian Dewar. “The early deficit made it a chal-lenge to recover and bring the game back against a talented Coastal team. “

The team ended its regular season schedule placing fourth with a 3-8-1 record.

The boys under u-14 ended its season with a 2-1 loss against Surrey United in the playoffs.

They  wrapped up regular season play with a 2-2 draw as Penticton’s Grayson Perrier scored the equalizer.

TOFC finished fourth in the stand-ings with a 4-5-5 rec-ord.

Tennis champsFour Summerland girls took top honours in both the 14 and under and 12 and under age categories at the Lakeview Heights Rookie Tour in West Kelowna on June 28. At left, Phoebe Kotulska, 14, won the girls 14 and under draw, with Simonka Slizek, 13, finishing second. At right, Marie Holmes, 11, won the 12 and under competition with Kinga Kotulska, 10, the other finalist. All four girls train at the Lakeshore Racquets Club in Summerland.

Well as I write this column I sure hope the weather fore-casts are accurate as we are finally get-ting the warm sum-mer weather we are famous for.

Quite frankly, the month of June had its challenges with all the wet weather but the one positive is I have never seen the area greener and our water consumption has definitely been low.

Even with the poor weather my hat still goes off to those that held their year-end games and tourna-ments at the end of June.

Thank you to the mother and son team

of Alex and Donna Waddington who dealt with infields that were under-water, yet got the fields playable for the popular Summerland Slo-Pitch year-end tournament.

Also Reid Jenkins from the Pinnacles Football club has made great strides with Summerland’s mini soccer program which moved to Dale Meadows in 2012 and have special mini nets ideal for the young-er age group. Girls softball pulled off a great Okanagan zone championship for two age groups and people like Cindy Nelson and the Cutt family stepped up to

make the play downs a resounding success.

Minor baseball also had another good year under Brenda Chermsnok with a new group that stepped forward to continue minor base-balls long tradition here in Summerland.

As usual, the Sum-merland Bluegrass Festival was a hit with attendance from all over the province.

I was sitting in a full set of bleachers listening to a great bluegrass group of females from Sas-katchewan and it was definitely a June highlight.

With reference to the Rodeo Grounds, don’t forget about

the world famous RCMP Musical Ride being held Saturday, July 20 at the SOEC with shows at 2 and 7 p.m. This event is sponsored by the industrious Summer-land Rodeo Grounds Equine Develop-ment Committee with proceeds going

to upgrades at the Summerland Rodeo Grounds.

Before I sign off just a reminder the tennis courts at Peach Orchard Camp-ground have been resurfaced and for those that have taken up the new sport of pickleball, both courts at the campground now have pickleball court lines as well.

Have a great sum-mer!

Dale MacDonald has been Summer-land’s Director of Parks and Recreation for the last 22 years and in his sporting past has won provin-cial championships in four different sports.

Year-end tournaments a resounding success

Sunrunners win over Beercelona

On July 4, the Sunrunners visit Oliver for a 7 p.m. start while Double D Tours takes on Sum-merland and Beerce-lona takes on Kon-dola’s at King’s Park in Penticton.

Sailors compete in Naramata Mug

Members of the South Okanagan Sail-ing Association won the Naramata Mug on June 23.

The sailing race was sponsored by the Naramata Yacht Club and drew sail-ors from the Sum-merland Yacht Club, Penticton Yacht Club and South Okanagan Sailing Association.

A total of 18 sail-boats were entered

Siebe Kamstra and Bruce Baycroft, sail-ing an Osprey, won the Naramata Mug. Devyn Farr, in a

Laser, placed second and Stefan Arnason placed third. All are from the South Oka-nagan Yacht Club.

In the Bruno Leipe Cup, Wildfire, skip-pered by Harvey Ryll and with crew mem-bers Ralph and Linda Williamson, Mark Bicknal and Carolyne Doyle, was the win-ner. St. Vitus Dance, helmed by Andy McGregor of Summer-land, was in second place, while Gold-member, with Tannis Coletti and Fred Traut-man, was third.

Mary Catherine McLeod (NEE MacIntyre)passed away peacefully into the presence of the Lord on June 25, 2013 at the age of 90 years. She is remembered and sadly missed by her three daughters: Donna (Hermie) Navarro of Abbotsford BC, Cathy (Laurie) Milsted of Summerland BC, Margaret (Jim) Thornicroft of London, ON, grandchildren: Jeff (Sheila) Bowerman, Lisa (Aaron) Laurie, Shawna (Neil) Manchakowsky, Jenn (Josh) Seinen, Nicole (Jeff) Tims, Dayna (Joe) Thornicroft, great grandchildren: Sydney, Courtney and Ryan, Devin, Emma and Ethan, Jessica and Rebecca, Jordan, Jacob and Jason. Mary was sadly predeceased by her husband Del. Mary was born in 1923 in Annadale, P.E.I., the oldest of nine children. She met our dear deceased father Del during wartime where she was stationed in Halifax, Nova Scotia as a psychiatric nurse and followed her heart and her husband to BC where they had three beautiful daughters. Always the entrepreneur, she went into business in Vancouver purchasing the ‘Telephone Answering Service’ in the Ford Building. Along with her business partner and longtime friend, she purchased and ran the very successful ‘Demonstrator’s Bureau’ where personnel were hired to introduce new food and products in grocery and department stores. During that time she became heavily involved in the Vancouver Toastmasters Club and the Burnaby Lapidary Club. After all the girls were married, Mary and Del decided to ‘retire’ to Summerland where they built their home and opened the “’Okanagan Hobby and Art Shop’. After the Art Shop closed, she began selling Avon to all of Summerland, becoming top sales representative several times in the course of her second/third career. She also became heavily involved in her church, volunteering to teach catechism and holding many offi ces with the CWL for almost 40 years. She was one of many Presidents and was a national Representative of Summerland for the Nelson Diocese. Mary was dearly beloved and will be missed. Visitation will be held at 6:00 pm and Prayers will be offered at 7:00 pm on June 28th, 2013 followed by the Funeral Mass on Saturday, June 29th, 2013 at 1:00 PM from Holy Child Catholic Church, 14010 Rosedale Avenue in Summerland, BC with Father Ferdinan Nalitan offi ciating. Memorial tributes in Mary’s honour may be made to Dr. Andrews Pavilion, Summerland, BC. Condolences may be directed to the family through providencefuneralhomes.com.

Winner of the People’s Choice Award at the Sum-merland Art Club’s annual show was Blue Moon, a mixed medium painted by Summerland artist Pat Thomson.

She will be giv-ing workshops in the fall using these techniques. In addi-tion, to three beauti-ful pieces by Thom-son, there were many beautiful works in various styles by the other talented mem-bers of this art group.

These shows are worth seeing when they are held.

The Summerland Art Club would like to thank every-one who turned out, voted for their favourite painting, and helped to make

this a great event. A number of Sum-

merland residents are members of the Penticton Concert Band which will be performing at Gyro Park in Penticton on Sunday, July 14.

This outdoor con-cert , as well as their Peachfest performance Aug. 7, will feature Summerland singer Madison Johnson, an award-winning col-oratura soprano, who will once again add a new dimension to a few of the band’s long-standing favour-ite selections.

All concerts will include a variety of styles and tunes, including classic-al, big band, movie themes, and selec-tions from music-als, along with a few

other styles. There will be some-

thing to suit every-one’s taste.

Dedicated band members come to practice in Penticton regularly from all around the Okanag-an and Similkameen, including Summer-land, and the band is always interested in auditioning new

members who can play at an intermedi-ate to advanced level.

You can visit the website www.pentic-tonconcertband.ca or call 250-809-2087 for more information.

The Shatford Cen-tre in Penticton will be host to a series of great musical, art and cultural events this summer including a benefit concert by Latin pianist Beatriz Boizán who will per-form on Saturday, July 13 at 7:30 p.m.

Considered “One of the brightest new lights in the clas-sical world,” Boizán is admired for her vibrant personality, charismatic stage pres-ence and unique musi-cianship. She delivers authentic, innovative performances of Span-

ish and Latin Amer-ican music.

The concert is a fundraiser for Path-ways Addictions Resource Centre in Penticton. Path-ways promotes the well-being of people affected by, or at risk of developing alco-hol, drug and related problems.

Tickets are avail-able in Summerland at the Sweet Tooth Cafe, 13211 Victoria Rd. N. and at the door.

event you feel should be included in the Arts Palette or on the Arts Council’s online calen-dar, email [email protected]
