Proposed changes would alter federal constituency boundaries in Okanagan

A proposed change in federal electoral boundaries could have a big impact on Summerland.

The redrawn lines would cut Summer-land off from Penticton and the rest of the South Okanagan. Summerland would be the southernmost point in a new riding of Central Okanagan-Coquihalla which would include Kelowna.

Summerland Mayor Janice Perrino said the change would be “quite a shocking difference.”

“This affects Summerland hugely,” she said at last week’s municipal council meeting.

“We do all our business with Pentic-ton,” noting links with governing organ-izations such as Penticton Regional Hos-pital and Okanagan Skaha School District 67 as well as commerce.

She said she understands how such boundary proposals come about, when people unfamiliar with the area try to divide it up by population.

“People sit down and look at a map.” Summerland council has directed its

staff to prepare a written notice to advise the B.C. Federal Boundaries Commission that council is not in favour of the changes in the proposed boundaries and electoral districts. The notice also says the mayor and council would like to participate in the commission’s public hearing set for Oct. 9 at the Penticton Lakeside Resort.

Scenes for fi lm shot locallySummerland scenes

were shot last week for a 3-D short film about the Stanley Cup.

Stanley Cup Odyssey is being made for the Hock-ey Hall of Fame in Toron-to. Most of the scenes were filmed at the the historic Memorial Arena in Penticton.

The Summerland scenes included a house on Washington Avenue and an area near College Road.

Stanley Cup Odyssey tells the story of a group of young men who play their regular pick-up game at the local arena with skill and grace,

while they share their own personal favourite Stanley Cup moments. As the players remin-isce and attempt to emulate their hockey heroes, the on-ice action will transition to Stan-ley Cup goals scored by the game’s most iconic players: Wayne Gretz-

ky, Mario Lemieux and Bobby Orr.

A mix of original live action, computer generat-ed animation and classic archival footage of some of the most renowned moments in Stanley Cup history will be showcased in the film. Stanley Cup winner and B.C. native,

Ryan Walter, is assisting with the on-ice co-ordin-ation.

Darren Mann, who is a cast member in the film, played hockey with the Summerland Sting when he was 15 and a few games with the Penticton Vees.

Survey shows opposition to GMO fruitby Richard Rolke

Black Press

Okanagan orchard-ists say they have the required proof to fight genetically modified fruit.

A national survey indicates 69 per cent of the 1,501 respond-ents are not in favour

of a genetically engin-eered apple.

“We are not in favour of genetic-ally modified food because of the mar-ket risk,” said Glen Lucas, B.C. Fruit Growers Association general manager.

“The survey valid-

ated growers’ con-cerns that there could be a possible backlash against genetically modified apples.”

Lucas says there are several examples of genetically modi-fied organisms being developed and nega-tively impacting mar-

ket conditions.Beyond domestic

consumers, there is a concern some inter-national customers could stop buying Okanagan apples if genetically modi-fied organisms are allowed.

The survey was

commissioned by B.C. and Quebec orchard-ists after an Okanag-an biotech company applied to have a genetically modi-fied apple approved by the government. When cut, the apple does not brown.

The survey results

will be sent to the Canadian Food Inspection Agency and the federal health and agriculture min-isters.

“We want to express our concerns about the current regulations on genetically modi-fied products,” said

Lucas. “People want more information. We would like the gov-ernment to postpone further introductions (of genetically modi-fied fruit) until they get their act together and have better pub-lic discussion on the issue.”

Continued from Page 1“I think we need to

be there and I think we need to voice our concerns that our cit-izens will not be well served.”

The new bound-ary suggestions are made every 10 years by electoral commis-sions across Canada. The new ridings would change the political landscape of the Southern Interior for a 2015 election.

Dan Albas, who lives in Penticton and currently rep-resents Okanagan-Coquihalla, calls the proposal “very interesting,” but is concerned about the Summerland split from Penticton. Albas noted too that the changes aren’t final, and still subject to a public comment per-iod this fall before a final proposal is sent to Parliament.

John Hall, a B.C. Court of Appeal jus-tice who headed the three-member com-mission, encouraged

people to tell him what they think.

“A lot of the Inter-ior stuff is certain-ly not set in stone,

because those are big ridings, territorially, and it will be inter-esting to hear what people have to say,”

Hall said.Anyone wishing

to speak at the Oct. 9 hearing must regis-ter by Aug. 30. Regis-

tration can be done online or by mail. For more information visit [email protected] or phone 1-855-747-7236.

Proposed changes not yet finalSurveys receivedAbout 350 of the 1,000 surveys sent to

Summerland households were filled in and returned to municipal hall by the deadline July 15.

The survey seeks input about the direction and priorities of the community.

Mayor Janice Perrino said the results are interesting and informative. She said “thanks” to the people who took the time to complete the survey. A report on survey results will be released in August.

Tours available at new RCMP building

Summerland’s new RCMP building will officially open July 27.

Public tours will be conducted from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m. that day. Space is limited so par-ticipants need to sign up in advance by con-tacting Karen Jones at the municipal hall at 250-494-6451 or [email protected].

The 14,600 square foot building at 9101 Pineo Ct. was designed for maximum fuel and power efficiency. Construction cost is $4.6 million.

Garden tour winnersSeven people won patio umbrellas dur-

ing the recent garden tour sponsored by the QuestSociety for Hearing Enhancement.

They included Angie Morin, June from Penticton, Evelyn Campbell, Sandy Nicolson, Stella Klassen, Christine Johnston and Gobie Wade.

In spite of the rainy weather, a record num-ber of garden enthusiasts enjoyed 10 Summer-land gardens.

VICTORIA – By the time you read this I should be in Vander-hoof, the geographical centre of B.C., to visit relatives.

Born in the Okanagan, raised in the Peace country and work-ing for 20 years in Metro Van-couver, I’ve driven from one end of the province to the other more times than I can count.

A similar trip last year began just as a huge mudslide was cleared near C h i l l i w a c k . Other drives have featured mid-summer hail piled 10 centi-metres deep on the Coquihalla, a near miss between two moose in the Pine Pass, plus the usual blizzards and hundreds of traf-fic jams for construction, acci-dents and growing urban vol-ume delays.

This time I’ve got a new tool on board, the mobile version of DriveBC.ca on my Black-Berry.

Launched two years, ago, the mobile site has taken off with the surging popularity of smartphones.

In the past year, DriveBC’s online traffic averaged 1.2 mil-lion visits a month, about half to the five-year-old desktop site and half from mobile users. It’s by far the most popular B.C. government website.

I asked DriveBC technical leader Nainesh Agarwal for these stats, and he said even he was surprised by the surge in mobile traffic in recent months.

But trying out the mobile site, it’s easy to see the appeal.

With a few clicks, the phone displays incident reports and web camera images for my chosen route.

Webcams have been added steadily all over the province, and now watch 18 key loca-tions on Vancouver Island, 93 in the Lower Mainland, 73 in the Southern Interior, 35 in the North and 13 at Canada-U.S. border crossings.

At a glance, you can check

anything from the traffic at the Lions Gate Bridge to the line-up for the Skidegate ferry on Haida Gwaii.

Most pictures update every two minutes, offering a real-time look at traffic, weather and road conditions. A recent addition is “replay the day,” which shows the last 24 hours of pictures in a few seconds.

Another new feature is an e-mail alert that can be custom-ized.

You can subscribe to a par-ticular region or highway and receive notices as soon as they are posted to the DriveBC network. And of course there is an @drivebc Twitter feed, where between 6:30 a.m. and midnight, staff update condi-tions and respond to inquiries. (Major events are automatically tweeted overnight.)

Verified reports are fed

from highways staff and con-tractors all over the province and co-ordinated through the provincial highways condition centre in the Lower Mainland. It’s become a primary source of information for radio and TV traffic and news reporters around B.C.

The mobile service now has an option for drivers to report new problems they encounter.

After determining your smartphone’s location, the site displays the name and phone

number of the local mainten-ance contractor who can take the report.

For those who haven’t joined the smartphone era, there is an old-fashioned option.

Dialing 5-1-1 anywhere in the province gives access to a toll-free line that connects to recorded DriveBC messages.

Agarwal said use of that service has been declining as phones with web access become more popular.

The 5-1-1 service also requires you to use the keypad to select your route from a numerical list, so drivers would have to pull over rather than breach the new restrictions on using handheld devices while driv-ing.

Tom Fletcher is legislative reporter and columnist for Black Press and BCLocalnews.com. [email protected]

At a glance, you can check anything from the traffic at the Lions Gate Bridge to the lineup for the Skidegate ferry on Haida Gwaii.

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

The response to the commun-ity surveys is a little disappointing.

Earlier, surveys were sent to 1,000 households, asking for input about the com-munity’s direc-tion and pri-orities for the coming years.

Only 350 of the surveys were complet-ed and returned by the July 15 deadline.

A lot of Summerlanders have some good ideas which could help the entire community, but those ideas must be voiced.

In order to create and maintain a good community, it is important to have the participation of the public.

culls

We are glad Summerland was selected for some scenes in a short film about hockey.

The film-ing was done recently at a house on Wash i n g ton Avenue and at an area near College Road.

We hope to see additional film projects here in the future.

Every bit of exposure can help to promote the community as a place for people to visit and as a great place to live.

ourpickChanging

boundariesThe proposed changes to

federal electoral boundaries in the Southern Interior of British Columbia make little sense.

The changes, which would affect the 2015 federal elec-tion, would put Summerland into the new riding of Central Okanagan-Coquihalla, the rid-ing which will also include Kelowna.

Penticton would be in the riding of South Okanagan-West Kootenay.

Considering the close ties between Summerland and Penticton, putting the com-munities into two different federal ridings is puzzling. The ties are not nearly as strong between Summerland and Kelowna.

Putting Penticton into the same riding as some of the West Kootenay communities is even more confusing. The South Okanagan is not the same as the Boundary and West Kootenay region.

This is not the first time the ridings have been awk-ward or puzzling.

In the 1990s, the riding which included Summerland and Penticton also included Hope, a community with strong ties to the Upper Fraser Valley but not to the Okanagan.

Electoral boundaries are redrawn from time to time in order to divide the province and the country into even, manageable segments, based on population.

The proposed changes will increase the number of seats in the House of Commons from 308 to 338.

While the principle is sound, redrawing boundaries quickly becomes complicated.

Each region in British Columbia has its own charac-teristics, based on age, income, economic activity and more. These characteristics must be respected.

Boundaries will need to be redrawn from time to time, but there are ways to do this without creating disjoint-ed ridings and without put-ting communities into ridings where they do not fit well.

THE EARLY YEARS

Just starting West Summerland was not exactly a busy shopping hub in 1913. As much as our town has grown and changed since then, it’s gratifying to see that some of our past is in our present. We can still walk into any of these four original buildings on Main Street as well as the “newer” ones that followed. When you’re in town, take note of the pieces of the past that are the foundations of the friendly community that we call home. The Sum-merland Museum is a great place to find out more.

Dear Editor,Penticton Second-

ary School, Jim Pat-tison Centre of Excel-lence, South Okanag-an Events Centre and the upgraded pool facility are examples of significant building capital investments in Penticton over the past few years.

These education

and recreation facili-ties benefit the resi-dents of Penticton and surrounding communities.

A conceptual plan for a four-story patient care tower addition to the Penticton Region-al Hospital has been completed for what could potentially be the next big capital

building project in Penticton to serve the South Okanagan.

The RDOS and Penticton Hospital Foundation have committed to fund $140 million of the $300 million price tag, and Interior Health has indicated that the Penticton Regional Hospital is a number

one priority for the region.

The need for a sig-nificant upgrade to our hospital has been clearly identified, and we are almost half way towards fund-ing the plan, thanks to good leadership, patience and persis-tence.

We ought not to

be deterred or dis-couraged by the $80 million funding announced for Royal Inland Hospital in Kamloops.

During the years that I served as Board Chair of the Oka-nagan Skaha School district, I found that good solid planning, community support,

clearly identified need and cooperation with all levels of government resulted in school capital announcements (Pen-ticton Secondary, Princess Margaret restructure, Sum-merland Middle and Skaha Lake Middle Schools).

The PRH Ambu-

latory Care Facility will undoubtedly benefit the citizens of our region, and I’d suggest we continue with a positive and pragmatic approach, and I would encour-age people in the area to support this pro-ject.

Dear Editor:All too often lately

we hear more bad news than good news concerning the RCMP, but I would like to give a big thank you to the members in Summer-land, especially Const. J.A. Lefebvre who took the extra time before going off shift to check a suspicious vehicle which was towing my property.

It had just been stolen and I would not have known until I headed out for work and by that time would have been long gone.

I’m so glad that we have our own RCMP in Summerland.

Kudos to the RCMP

Dear Editor:A huge bouquet

Dear Editor.Literally millions of

tax dollars are being spent every year pro-moting tourism, try-ing to attract visitors to help sustain local economies.

But the first impres-sions we expose those tourists to when they arrive in the Oka-nagan Valley, is what

must be the biggest and the most obnox-ious collection of cor-porate graffiti.

Visitors are all find-ing it extremely offen-sive, and are wonder-ing why our polit-icians are allowing this to happen.

If we want those tourists to continue to come here, we

have to ban all off-site advertising as part of our strategy to promote tourism, and then penalize businesses who do not comply.

A business license is not a permit to deface public proper-ties with graffiti.

To lead by example, Summerland city

council should also rescind the plan to waste precious tax dollars on some glitzy sign that will only add to the pro-liferation of that graf-fiti.

The tourist info center on the highway and existing signage is already more than adequate.

Big box stores are sucking the life-blood out of the local downtown business core.

Visitors are drawn to those stores and are not coming back, no matter how big and ugly those bill-boards are.

If local businesses want to survive in

this market they may have to reconsider their business plans, or follow their cus-tomers.

To deface our downtown, our flowerbeds and pub-lic boulevards with graffiti will only pro-mote the exodus.

Dear Editor:I’ve recently been

made aware that a Summerland Cem-etery has undergone a major cleanup. I’m

not exactly sure what this entails as I live in Alberta and can only go by what I’ve heard from other family members.

I’ve been told that a lot of very personal items were removed from the cemetery.

These items meant a great deal to surviv-

ing members of the family. This action indicates a serious lack of respect for the deceased and also for their survivors,

and is not the type of scenario that I would expect from a peace-ful little town in the Okanagan — a town where I grew up and

where both my par-ents were put to rest.

I would like to thank Mr. Don Dar-ling (Public Works Department in Sum-

merland) for returning my phone call and for his sincere apology.

Dear Editor:Re: Summerland

Camera Club dis-bands, Summerland

Review, June 28.I suppose we knew

it would happen sooner or later, but nevertheless it is sad when it does hap-pen.

My parents spent many happy hours, as did their friends, trying for “the right subject, the right light, the right back-ground” and any other detail.

When the group put together a slide program for their Concert in Colour, held once a year if possible, no one, other than the mem-

bers, knew how much work went into selecting the right slides for each pres-entation.

I was not a mem-ber, but have happy memories of watch-ing my parents take pictures, cull out the bad ones and present the good ones for competitions.

Thank you to the few remaining mem-bers.

You have brought happiness and fond memories to look back on.

After a few years of non-golf, we were so impressed by the warm welcome and helpful assistance at the event. Manage-ment, staff, profes-sionals and a group of seasoned mentors worked together to

make this happen for, us, basically a bunch of duffers.

This was an event that attracted more than 75 participants to a “welcome back to golf” afternoon — and it was a huge success in every way.

P a r t i c i p a n t s received helpful info and tips on golf, from etiquette to putting to chipping to driving.

We then were able to play a round, accompanied by a

mentor for any ques-tions we had.

Somehow those experienced men-tors even managed to keep the rain and stormy weather at bay for the outing.

The course was in pristine condition, a beautiful gem sur-rounded with classic Okanagan scenery.

Every participant was made to feel comfortable, even those of us with some serious rust on what

used to be at best a mediocre set of golf skills.

This was more than a one time great outing, this was a genuine display of welcome to those of us out there who for one reason or another just have not been golfing much the last few years.

Thank you Sum-merland Golf and Country Club.

Construction has begun on a stable at Critteraid’s animal sanctuary on Giant’s Head Road.

On Thursday, Okanagan College students were at the facility to prepare and pour the concrete for the footings for the stable.

This phase is fund-ed in part with a $5,027 donation from the Vancouver Foun-dation.

The next phase is the completion of the structure. The final phase is the comple-tion of fencing and gates for all the pad-docks and pastures.

Students from Okanagan College will participate as the prime contractor dur-ing all phases, pro-viding their labour at no cost.

The need for the stable began in early 2011 when Steve Thomson, Minister of Natural Resource

Operations, author-ized a wild horse be given to Critteraid. The horse was one of several which were being rounded up in the Deadman Val-ley near Kamloops to protect sensitive range ecosystems.

Critteraid acquired six horses, includ-ing three pregnant mares.

Thomson later said it was his intention to look into the legis-lation surrounding abandoned livestock on Crown lands.

After Gillian Lorimer and Judy Col-pitts contacted Thom-sen, encouraging that the horses go to Crit-teraid, ministry staff looked into possibil-ities for groups like Critteraid to invest in the horses.

Colpitts, coordin-ator of disability ser-

vices and student services at Okanagan College, spoke with John Kenny, a Crit-teraid volunteer who works in the civil engineering technol-ogy department at the college.

They then spoke with Alf Leimert, the college’s chair of construction trades, to see about the pos-sibility of students building one or two loafing sheds at Crit-teraid.

Leimert then spoke with staff, including Darrell Butler, one of the instructors at the college.

Critteraid president Deborah Silk had said one of the capital projects at Critteraid was to abandon the present loafing sheds for horses since they are too close to the riparian area.

A team effortCritteraid volunteers and staff at Okanagan College are working together on a stable on the Crit-teraid property on Giant’s Head Road. In the back row from left are Brenda Murti, Claudette Murti, Paula Raines, Alf Leimert and Judy Colpitts. Leimert and Colpitts are part of Okanagan College.

Filial Duty

Filial Duty is a phrase not many people have

likely heard. It's the duty of a child to care

for his or her parent. There is legislation

in British Columbia that sets out this duty.

This law is now being put to the test. A case

was commenced in the South Okanagan

with this duty as its centerpoint. A mother is

suing her son for money to cover her future

care. Whether or not she is successful will

depend on the circumstances of the case.

Whether you agree with such a law or not

it certainly raises very interesting questions

and debates.

Ask YourDentist...

Q I’ve worn an upper denture for years and

feel more comfortable wearing it at night, is that OK?

Anonymous

AYes. Dentists have encouraged removing dentures at night for years. However, research is

fi nding that you can breathe better at night with your denture in. Getting a good night’s rest is vital to your health. I have discussed sleep apnea in a previous article and it is linked to health risks like: high blood pressure, depression, and weight gain. Not to “forget” that your memory will improve if your quality of sleep improves. 70% of complete denture wearers suffer from sleep apnea if they do not wear their dentures at night.So, why in the past did we encourage you to take it out? Basically to give your gum tissue a break. I still encourage you to take your denture out at some time during the day. You could try to remove it while you are in the shower or bath, that way you could gently clean your gums and denture as well. Make sure you are always very gentle to clean the inside part of the denture since that is where the fi t of the denture comes from. Just use a soft cloth and non abrasive soap. Brushes are fi ne to use on the outside of your denture with a gentle cleaner. I like to see my patients with full upper and lower dentures once a year to make sure their gum tissue is healthy. So leave your denture in at night and enjoy a better night’s sleep!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!

In the gardensThe Friends of Summerland Gardens Society held their 21st anniversary tea at the Ornamental Gardens on Saturday. Mayor Janice Perrino, right, presented society president Charlotte Leam-ing, left, and secretary Dorthea Atwater a cheque for $7,500 from the District of Summerland. The society has worked hard at preserving the gardens as an attractive feature of the community. They are currently raising money to implement a water conservation project, expanding the water wise gardening principles already in place. They wish to lead by example and to promote and inspire all gardeners to use water wise principles. They have demonstration beds in place and will be conducting workshops in the future. Volunteers are always needed to join the team.

Shakespeare play staged

As You Like It is perhaps the best of Shakespeare’s com-edies to stage out-doors. Freedom and nature’s ability to renew the human spirit are elements in this play where char-acters flee oppression and the artificiality of court life to find peace of mind, self-knowledge and true love in the Forest of Arden.

Love is a theme in the play and differ-ent types of lovers are illustrated. Rosalind and Orlando repre-sent true love, built on friendship; while Oli-ver, when reformed from his initial cruel behaviour is able to fall for Celia, and the earthy jester Touch-stone weds the simple country girl Audrey.

Forgiveness and restitution are also key motifs.

The young hero

Orlando is driven from home by his older brother Oli-ver who has treated him like a slave and cheated him out of his inheritance. In the forest, Orlando saves Oliver from a crouching lion and is himself wounded. The brothers are then reconciled.

The good Duke Senior was driven from his lands by his usurping brother Ferdinand and has been living with his loyal supporters in the forest, like Robin Hood. At the end of the play, inspired by a holy man Ferdi-nand restores all that he stole and retires to live and meditate in a cave.

Town and coun-try life are compared wittily, when the runaway courtiers encounter the local shepherds.

All’s well that ends well. The god-dess of marriage, Hymen closes the play with a blessing on the couples, there is music and a joyful dance.

Written about 1599 to early 1600, As You Like It is notable for its poetic and telling language.

Another feature of As You Like It is the number of songs that

it presents. There are more songs in this play than in any other of Shakespeare’s plays.

As You Like It was even turned into a musical in 2007 and has been staged and filmed in many ways. Kenneth Branagh even set the play in 19th century Japan.

The part of Rosa-lind, who disguises herself as the youth Ganymede, is one of Shakespeare’s great female roles. She is witty and optimistic, a good foil for the pessimistic, melan-choly Jaques.

Rae-Marie Leg-gott plays Rosalind, a part interpreted once by Edith Evans and more recently by Helen Mirren. Marlene Robinson, a veteran of Penticton Chamber Theatre’s Shakespeare produc-tions, plays Celia, Rosalind’s cousin and bosom friend who follows her into exile.

Orlando is young Tyler Fowler, an up-and-coming talent studying theatre at the University of Vic-toria.

In Summerland, the play will be shown on Aug. 7 and 8 at 7 p.m. in Memorial Park.

Admission is by donation.

An old orchard sprayer, dating from the 1920s, will be restored and dis-played at the Sum-merland Museum.

Sharon Stone of the museum said the sprayer was donated in 2004 and at the time, plans were in the works to restore it. However, the plans did not materialize and the wagon has been at the municipal public works yard since that time.

Earlier this year, Stone approached

John Topham, who was working on another restora-tion project for the museum.

Topham said he has already spent around 60 hours restor-ing the sprayer. The work included sand-blasting it to get rid of the rust and dam-ages to the wood.

Despite the rust, Topham said the sprayer was in good condition.

“The integrity of the wagon was good,” he said.

At present, every-thing on the sprayer

is original, includ-ing the one-cylinder engine in the rear.

Topham said he tried to get colours which were as close as possible to the ori-ginal colours of the machine.

The only non-original part of the sprayer will be the hose, which he will acquire from some-one else in the com-munity.

Stone said she would like to see the sprayer finished for the Fall Fair in early September.

The cost of the

work is estimated at $3,000.

Once it is com-pleted, it will be on display in front of the museum, secured so it cannot be moved.

It will also be used for parades and other community events.

To keep it safe from vandalism, Stone said flood lights will be installed to illumin-ate it 24 hours a day.

She added that there are still some questions about the vintage wagon.

Although museum

staff and volunteers have been research-ing the wagon, they would like some more information.

“Hopefully, some old orchardist will see it and say, ‘That was mine,’” she said.

In addition to the

sprayer, Stone said Topham will also restore a democrat wagon which will also be displayed at the museum when it is completed.

“We wanted to bring the museum to life,” she said.

Orchard sprayer will be restored

Restoration workJohn Topham shows the work which has been done on a vintage orchard sprayer. The completed sprayer will be displayed at the Summerland Museum.

Canadians see themselves with goldI have the honour

of working with CTV for the London 2012 Olympic Games as the swimming com-mentator and I will be sharing our Can-adian athletes’ stor-ies as they summit their athletic goals of winning an Olympic medal.

There will be heart-break and disappoint-ment, but I have a feeling that after the positive ripple effect of Vancouver 2010 Olympics and the huge success of our athletes there is a new sense of self con-fidence and self belief that our present Can-adian athletes pos-sess.

Our summer Olympic athletes are gearing up to achieve more than ever before. The count-down to the official Opening Ceremonies for the London 2012 Olympics is eight days away, on Friday July 27. The whole

world will watch the spectacle and athletic extravaganza to go on for the following 16 days.

Competitive swim-ming starts on Sat-urdy, July 28 and is eight days in dur-ation. The heavy-weights will be the showdown between American swimming phenomenon Michael Phelps and Ryan Lochte who will bat-tle it out on the first evening in the 400m Individual medley (IM). This IM event is where the swimmers swim all four strokes in one race- butterfly, backstroke, breast-stroke and freestyle.

If Phelps is suc-cessful in striking gold, he will be the first male to win the same event in three consecutive Olympic Games.

Two females have already accomplished this feat, Australian swimmer Dawn Fra-ser and Hungarian

Kristina Egerzegi. Phelps had an

incredible and flaw-less program win-ning eight gold med-als in the 2008 Beijing Olympics.

He holds the title for the most Olympic gold medals of any athlete, and will try to break the last remain-ing title- Most Overall Olympic Medals.

He sits with 16 medals secured from his three Olympics, and will try to top Soviet gymnast Larisa Latynina’s 18 medals.

With all the hype of Phelps and Loch-te, let’s not overlook our Canadian team who are on a mission to rise to the medal podium.

The Canadian swim team will be led by two British Columbians, Ryan Cochrane of Victoria and Brent Hayden of Mission. Hayden is a sprint specialist, a reigning silver medal-

list in the 2011 World Championships in the 100m freestyle.

While Cochrane is the bronze medalist from the 2008 Olym-pics in the 1500m and has his sights set on podium per-formances in both the 1500m and 400m freestyle events. Our Canadian women’s team could have some podium per-formances with Julia Wilkinson of Stratford Ontario who trains in Victoria and Sinead Russell of Burlington Ontario in the 100m backstroke.

The 200m breast-roke will be a show-down with the Can-adians right up there chasing the world record. Martha McCabe who trains in Vancouver along-side team mate Tera Van Beilen both train under breastroke guru Jozsef Nagy and recently posted times within reach of Olympic medal stan-dards.

I finished fourth and fifth at the Olym-pic Games, tenths away from an Olym-pic medal, but I can see the new iden-tity of the Canadian team — a solid belief that they deserve to be best in the world — gives them more strength than previ-ous teams.

I know our Can-adian athletes today believe they can climb that Olympic performance because they see themselves as worthy cham-pions.

I recently heard an evolved saying that applies to our Can-adian Olympic ath-letes.

“You have to see it before you can achieve it!”

The power of the mind and mental strength will play a huge role in the results of our Can-adian athletes in Lon-don.

Our Canadian swimmers see them-selves winning gold and it will be an amazing honour and thrill to give the play by play of their jour-ney.

Have fun cheering

on our Canadian ath-letes and remember, they all started out like our local athletes — learning to love sport and all of its healthy benefits.

Naturally for some, it progresses into something much more, simply because they are determined to make their dreams come true.

Margaret MERLE O’Shaughnessy R.N.(Nee Greenaway)

1917-2012Our beautiful mother,

grandmother and

great grandmother,

Merle, age 95, passed

away peacefully at

the Summerland

Seniors Village on

Saturday, July 14,

2012 where she was

so lovingly cared for.

Mom was born June

30, 1917 in Pettapiece,

Manitoba to Lloyd and Cordelia Greenaway. Predeceased

by her husband, Bill (1993); brothers Maurice, Glen

(Marj) and Willis (Mona) Greenaway and brothers’ in law

Earl (Marg), George, Howie (Esther) and Marvin (Mary)

O’Shaughnessy. Besides her three children and their

families, Merle will be missed by nieces, nephews, cousins,

dear friends, wonderful neighbours, and sisters in law, Kay

O’Shaughnessy of Winnipeg and Phyllis Greenaway of

Hamiota, Mb.

Mom was educated in Cardale and Oak River, Manitoba

and then followed her childhood dream by becoming a

registered nurse, graduating in 1940 from the Winnipeg

General Hospital School of Nursing. Her career began in

Orthopedics at the WGH followed by a year with VON and

then six years of private duty nursing. She was a pioneer in

Occupational Health nursing, working in the T. Eaton Co.’s

seventh fl oor hospital in Winnipeg for six years. Before

retiring to Summerland in 1977, Mom ended her active

nursing career as the Evening Supervisor at Winnipeg’s

Rehabilitation Hospital. She married our dad, Bill, in 1942

and they soon settled in West Kildonan, becoming active

in Kildonan United Church. In Summerland, Mom was a

valued member of so many organizations - the Garden

Club, Pleasure Painters, Drop-In Centre, Peer Counseling,

Healing Touch, Trans Canada Trail Assoc., Marie’s Tai Chi

& UCW, among others. As well, she & Dad, volunteered

with the Drop-In Centre when its members manned

Summerland’s First Tourist Information Booth. As members

of the Summerland United Church, Mom and Dad were

active participants in the creation & implementation of

Summerland’s Food Bank in 1984. Merle also spent many

hours assisting visitors in our Art Gallery; cutting hair at

Parkdale Place and taking blood pressures at the Drop-In.

Honouring her gentle spirit, her Christian values and her

memory are her son Michael (Louise) of Winnipeg, son Gary

of Edmonton and daughter Sharon (Carl) of Summerland.

Her six cherished grandchildren are Nyree O’Shaughnessy

of Winnipeg, David, Patrick & Ryan O’shaughnessy &

IT’S BEEN YEARS!Over 10 years, actually, since Re/Max Orchard Country located at the corner of Main and South

Victoria! In that time, we have seen many changes to the business of Real Estate. But through it all,

we have strived to provide “old fashioned service with high tech results”.

EDUCATION & TRAININGOur Realtors have worked hard to stay ahead by investing in some of the highest education &

training standards in the business. We have been recognized with numerous awards from within

the Real Estate Industry, including the prestigious RE/MAX 100% Club year after year. In particular,

Re/Max International has recognized both Tammy Antrobus and Kirk Roberge for the once in a

lifetime sales recognition: RE/MAX Hall of Fame Award. It is quite an achievement, rarely bestowed

upon Realtors from a small town, most often Realtors operating in the much larger markets such

as Toronto, Vancouver, and Montreal are recipients, so we could not be more proud of their sales

results here in Summerland.

CHILDRENS MIRACLE SUPPORTBut by far the one award we are MOST proud of as a team here at RE/MAX, is that we have consistently

achieved the designation of MIRACLE OFFICE year after year for our work and fi nancial support of

the Miracle Network for Kids.

REAL ESTATE BUSINESSAs far as the real estate business... we are doing pretty good there, too! Our small group of hard

working professionals has achieved incredibly strong results for our clients. For example, our

offi ce has sold more new development housing in Summerland than all other Summerland offi ces

combined. And this year alone, our offi ce is responsible for 50% of the highest price MLS sales in

Summerland!

THANK YOUUltimately, this message, though, needs to be about saying thank you. To our clients, our co-

workers, our families, our friends and our administration staff , especially Heidi who keeps it all

humming. Thank you!

WHAT’S NEXTAre we ever excited about what’s next! The RE/MAX Brand is the best known name

IN THE WORLD for Real Estate (never mind Edmonton and Calgary!) Our marketing technology

is exploding with online attention! Our repeat and referral clients continue to build the network

across Western Canada. Our investment in new window boards is the talk of Main Street, attracting

strollers interested in owning in Summerland.

THANK YOU, THANK YOUThank you also to Tammy Antrobus, Kirk Roberge, Mike Stohler, Kirk Chamberlain and our newest

Realtor, Lisa Knight... thank you for working to help make this offi ce such a productive, professional

hard working place to own and operate! Give any of us a call, any time, we love what we do, and it

shows!

Continued from Page 1He graduated from Pen

High and went on to play single A pro in Chicago before a shoulder injury took his hockey dream away from him. Mann then turned back to his second love, acting, and landed a part in Stanley Cup Odyssey.

“It’s awesome,” he said of being cast. “When you grow up playing hockey you want

to get in the Hall of Fame and win the Stanley Cup. I never could playing hockey, but now I get to act like I do and it’s going to be shown at the Hall of Fame. It’s pretty cool.”

He joined a list of hockey players from all over west-ern Canada that come from the junior A, AHL and WHL ranks. Penticton Vees captain Troy Stecher is getting his first

break as an actor. He was casted to the film

as a late addition. Stecher decided to spend his summer in Penticton to train for the upcoming season and was in the right place at the right time to earn his spot in the Hall of Fame.

The Vees captain said in the film his team wins and he assists on the winning goal.
