Lake Country reducesstaff in reorganization

WHISTLER MOUNTAIN SKI CLUB

KELOWNA’S Ian Deans will step up to the World Cup ski cross circuit next season.

Thousands of resi-dents from across the Okanagan and Kooten-ays, including here in Lake Country, joined one of the largest en-vironmental campaigns on the planet by switch-ing off for Earth Hour 2012 last Saturday,

For the fourth con-secutive year, Fortis-BC sponsored the Earth Hour Challenge, en-couraging residents here

to switch off all non-es-sential lighting, appli-ances and electronics from 8:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. “We credit the suc-cess of this year’s Earth Hour Challenge to the tremendous leader-ship shown by the par-ticipating communities and non-profi t organiz-ations,” said Tom Loski, vice-president, customer service, FortisBC.

“They reached resi-

dents in their commun-ities by engaging busi-nesses, schools, librar-ies, recreation centres and more in the effort to spread the word about Earth Hour. FortisBC congratulates all of the communities for their ef-forts.”

The winner of the highest per capita par-ticipation for this year’s challenge was the Village of Salmo.

Big White’s Ian Deans will compe-te next season on the World Cup men’s ski cross circuit.

The Okanagan Centre product ear-ned a spot on the world’s premier tour thanks to winning the Nor-Am Cup ski cross overall title this season.

Deans clinched top spot by winning both the recent Nor-Am races at Mt. Hood Meadows, Oregon.

With 664 points, Deans won the overall crown by 129 points over team-mate Robert Lepine of Whistler.

“I feel relieved,” said Deans, 20. “I’ve been stressing about it for a litt-

le while as it’s been pretty tight and fi -nally getting it off my chest is a huge relief. I’ve been working towards this all year, so it feels good.”

“Ian had really good starts both days,” said Alberta Ski Cross coach Stanley Hayer.

“He won every start except for the

fi nal and then he passed in the fi rst trapping section and never looked back. He was just really strong. He looked re-ally focused.”

Deans is already looking forward to the possibilities for next season.

“I got to compete in one of the World Cups this year and it was ama-zing,” said Deans, who raced in Blue Mountain, Ont.

“Just the support from everyone from the national team and allowing me to come with them was absolutely spectacular.”

Deans grew up skiing at Big White Ski Resort, joined the Big White Ra-cers.

After watching Kelsey Serwa and her success, he decided to pursue racing on the ski cross circuit.

A driven young man, Deans is cur-rently studying at UBCO while keep-ing up with his ski cross training.

The belt is being tightened at the Lake Country municipal offi ce and that means fewer employees.

The district initiated an organiza-tional review in November and some senior management positions are being eliminated.

Three individuals have been notifi ed of changes and two have already left their duties.

“The end goal is to fi nd realignment of the organization that meets the needs of the community,” said Alberto De Feo, chief administrative offi cer.

“We’ve been told (by residents) to keep taxes in check. Through this oper-ation, we are hoping to save money.”

De Feo wouldn’t specify which ad-ministrative posts have been impacted so far, and he wouldn’t say how many other staff may leave, although union positions are also being considered.

“Some departments have more staff than other municipalities our size. De-velopment services and administration are being looked at,” he said.

De Feo doesn’t believe the restruc-turing process is creating poor morale among the 65 employees.

“We’ve been discussing this since June and I’ve interviewed each staff member. There is a desire for change,” he said.

“We’ve been operating the same since incorporation (1995).”

Mayor James Baker supports the or-ganizational review.

“We want to see if we can gain ef-fi ciencies,” said Baker, adding that re-duced costs and new sources of revenue must be found instead of raising taxes.

A report on organizational structure will be made public in mid-April.

“Any time there are changes, it’s dis-tressing but all of our staff are really good and if there are changes, they will be highly recommended,” said Baker.

The next stage of the organizational review will look at contracted services and value for money of those services.

“We will look at whether we can do them better in-hour or continue do them from outside,” said Baker.

The district will also look at stream-lining approval processes to encourage development as a way of expanding the tax base.

“We’ve heard that the way we do business in these areas is cumbersome,” said De Feo.

Student art project

takes off

KATIE BRENNAN

CONTRIBUTOR

Since she began her practicum at the Lake Country Art Gallery this past September, fourth-year UBC-Okanagan BFA student Heather

Leier has become more aware of how close the Lake Country Art Gal-lery is to George Elliott Secondary.

“People kept men-tioning to me that we’re right across the street from the high school

and what do we do to get kids in the door,”said Leier.

That inspired Leier, a natural self-starter, to create the Lake Coun-try Youth Art Project, for which she wrote a suc-cessful grant application

to the United Way and secured funding for the initiative.

The project began with Leier contacting George Elliott art teach-er Angela Hansen to talk about what kind rela-tionship the gallery and

school could create to best serve the students.

“We decided on do-ing something for the older students, Grades 11 and 12,” said Leier. “There are lots of oppor-tunities for students to become more involved in

sports, band or theatre. In art, there isn’t much beyond what happens in the classroom and some-times going to a gallery to have a look around can be intimidating.”

No, all realtors work differently, deal with clients differently and offer different strengths to their clients. My suggestion to people who are looking for a Realtor is to always interview at

least three different Realtors. When listing your home, and when purchasing, you will have certain expectations and needs and will want to find someone with whom you feel comfortable and whom you can trust. When deciding on a Realtor, it is important to ask questions that will give you insight into their working style, people skills and work methodologies. If you ask a question like, “What sold the last three properties you listed?” the listing Realtor should be able to explain how they have sold houses in the past and how those experiences can benefit your sale. Another question that might give you insight into a Realtor’s work style would be; “Given our family’s situation, what advice can you offer us?” Advice on location, school accessibility for your children and privacy are issues that your Realtor will need to understand to help your family make the best decision. For more information on interviewing a Realtor, and for some questions that you can use, please contact me at 250-826-5660 or [email protected].

Do all Realtors work the same?Q All about diabetes

A AMy veterinarian has suggested a pre-anesthetic blood panel is run on my dog before a minor surgery. Is this really necessary?

With modern drugs and sophisticated monitoring equipment, the risk associated

with general anesthesia and surgery is minimal for the healthy pet. However, the potential for complications still exists, and the best way to minimize the risk for your pet is to have a complete pre-surgical evaluation performed before the procedure. This allows the veterinarian to determine if your pet has any underlying problems that might lead to complications, and to make any adjustments necessary to safeguard your pet’s health and comfort. This will at minimum include a complete physical exam but may also include routine blood testing (complete blood count and chemistry). These tests give a lot of information about the overall health of your pet and provide insight into the function of vital organs. Adequate liver and kidney function is necessary for our pets to metabolise or breakdown anesthetic agents and some medications that may be prescribed after a surgical procedure. Otherwise unapparent infection, organ disease or metabolic dysfunction that may increase the risk of anesthesia can be identified and addressed. Pre-anesthetic blood work is recommended before any animal undergoes anesthesia but older animals are particularly at risk of complications and should be tested.

I heard April is Oral Cancer Awareness Month; what is it about?Q

www.winfielddentalcentre.ca

Diabetes is a condition where people don’t produce enough insulin, and/or their cells don’t respond properly to insulin. Insulin is an important hormone produced by the pancreas that moves

glucose, a type of sugar, into the body’s cells from the blood. Once inside the body’s cells, glucose is used as a source of energy. If insulin isn’t available or doesn’t work correctly to move glucose from the blood into cells, glucose will stay in the blood. Blood sugar levels will then increase. There are

when the pancreas does not make enough insulin and/or the body does not use insulin properly. It usually occurs in adults, although in some cases, children may be affected. People with type 2 diabetes are treated with lifestyle changes (diet and exercise) and diabetes medications (either oral

diabetes have type 2. Type 2 diabetes is very closely linked to body weight and obesity. Gestational diabetes is a temporary type of diabetes that is first diagnosed during pregnancy. Studies have shown that keeping blood sugar levels as close to the normal range as possible can help prevent the long-term health problems associated with diabetes, such as nerve damage, kidney disease, and blindness. Whichever type of diabetes you have, you’ll need to measure your blood sugar frequently and follow a treatment plan to keep your blood sugar under control. Your doctor and IDA pharmacist can show you how to monitor blood sugar levels.

Oral cancer is NOT a rare disease; it is the 6th most common and approximately 3000 people will be diagnosed with it every year in Canada, more so than cervical cancer!

The good news is that it can often be found early in its development, even as a pre-cancer, through a simple, painless, and quick screening. With early detection, survival rates are high and the side effects from treatment are at their lowest. Like other screenings you engage in such as cervical, skin, prostate, colon and breast examinations, oral cancer screenings are an effective means of finding cancer at its early, highly curable stages. Every adult should get screened! In honour of Oral Cancer Awareness Month, Dr. Jung will be offering free oral cancer screenings on select dates

today!

It is daffodil month for the Canadian Can-cer Society, and Lake Country will see volun-teers knocking on doors raising funds for research and patient support.

The efforts of the Canadian Cancer Soci-ety in Lake Country rely on dedicated volunteers to reach out in the com-munity.

Jenny Wilkinson, of Okanagan Centre, is the volunteer zone captain for the area.

Wilkinson started vol-unteering in 2006.

“It such a good cause and I had the time avail-

able,” she said.The cancer campaign

is a part of spring Wil-kinson enjoys.

The warmer weath-er and the opportun-ity to be out and about meeting neighbors and friends help make it easy to walk for a few hours in

the evening three or four times a week.

Volunteers are asked to cover about 20 homes if they choose to contrib-ute their time.

It generally takes two or three short evenings in April to help out.

Wilkinson says this year new volunteers would be a huge help as their volunteer numbers are down.

Typically there are about 25 volunteers in Lake Country, due to travel and illness, so far only 15 volunteers have committed to return this April.

“You can call the Can-cer Society offi ce in Ke-lowna to volunteer,”

points out Wilkinson. That number is 250-762-6381.

A portion of the money raised stays in the community for patient support; the remain-ing funds are used for re-search and prevention efforts.

All volunteers who knock on your door dur-ing daffodil month will have a badge showing they are from the Can-adian Cancer Society.

Daffodil day is April 27 and the society en-courages everyone to show cancer sufferers their support by offering to do something special for someone who they know has cancer.

To mark Oral Cancer Awareness Month, Dr. Lina Jung, a general con-sultant at the B.C. Can-cer Agency’s department of oral oncology/dentist-ry, will offer free screen-ings on select dates in April at her offi ce in the

Winfi eld Dental Centre. Approximately 3,700

people will be diagnosed with oral cancer every year in Canada.

While worldwide, it kills one person every hour of every day, and over 100 new individuals

will be diagnosed with it each day, the good news is that it can often be found early through a simple, painless, and quick screening.

All adults should be screened as with early detection, survival rates

are high and the side ef-fects are from treatment are at their lowest.

For more information about oral cancer screen-ing and to book a com-plimentary appointment, call Jung’s offi ce at 250-766-1003.

Oral cancer screening tests offered for free

The art project takes the form of casual drop-in sessions at the gallery that Leier facilitates.

“We’ve done a book deconstruction project, with the books being our found objects.

“We played with drawing in books, cut-ting them up, making them into sculptures.

“We’re also think-ing about how these as pieces can become part of an art installation”.

Through brainstorm-ing sessions with the stu-dents about what kind of projects they would like to pursue—the drop-in sessions are all learn-er-focused—Leier has discovered just how di-verse the students’ inter-ests are.

“One night, they just wanted to do still life drawing,” she said. “I was really surprised, but they really wanted to do it.

“They wanted some practice at it. They would also like to do some life

drawing hopefully”. For some of the stu-

dents, this is likely the most interaction they’ve had with art in a long time. Some hadn’t been in a gallery since they visited on an elementary fi eld trip.

The initiative has the students working in the gallery, amongst the ex-hibitions, which has led them to consider the work hanging on the walls in a different light.

During the recent Lose Yourself To The Answers Within ex-hibition at the gallery, a show of monoprints by local artists Cee Bond, Julie Elliott and Pet-rina McNeill, the stu-dents were mostly curi-ous about how the pieces were made, said Leier.

“That’s why I did some printmaking with them, pulling out some printing plates and ink-ing them up,” she said.

The gallery will con-tinues its involvement in visual arts education and community outreach

with Lake Country stu-dents in the upcoming Art On The Edge 2012 program.

An exhibition by the Students of Lake Coun-try Youth Art Pro-ject will open at the gal-lery April 21 and include other works by students from Davidson Road Elementary, Peter Greer Elementary and Oyama Traditional School, as well as other high school students from George Elliott Secondary.

So where does Leier hope the Lake Coun-try Youth Art Project, a collaboration between George Elliott Second-ary and the Lake Coun-ty Art Gallery will be in fi ve years?

“I think the students will continue coming to the gallery,” she said.

“I’ll keep doing it as long as it is possible.

“And then maybe down the road, they can become the leaders, when I have to step out and it can continue to grow on its own”.

To the editor:MP Ron Cannan

claims that concerns that some voters were delib-erately told to go to the wrong polling site in the last election are “very disturbing.

So why does his party—the Conservative Party of Canada—seem so unconcerned?

Nothing could be more serious. Our dem-ocracy depends on each and every citizen be-ing able to vote for their choice for government.

Interfering with that right is a crime that for-mer Chief Electoral Of-fi cer Jean-Pierre Kings-ley said may deserve jail time.

All MPs should con-demn any interference in voting, but Mr. Can-nan and the Conserva-tive Party are trying to muddy the waters and

hide the problem.Maybe that’s because

the allegations seem to benefi t Conservative candidates.

Or maybe it’s because after four years of denial, the Conservative Party was convicted of break-ing the law by exceeding election spending limits in 2006 by more than a million dollars.

Too much has hap-pened to dismiss this as the work of a single rogue.

Something deeply disturbing is happening to our democracy.

Mr. Cannan should be standing up for a Can-ada that protects your right to vote, not turning a blind eye.

Liberal blastslocal MP overrobo call issue

In an interview with one of our Vancou-ver Island papers be-

fore Christmas, B.C. Conservative leader John Cummins made a bold prediction that he would have party status be-fore the general election in May 2013.

That’s four seats, and it wasn’t based on an un-likely sweep of the Chil-liwack-Hope and Port Moody-Coquitlam by-elections, now set for April 19. He hinted he was getting calls from MLAs looking to join up, after a November Angus Reid poll showed a sudden surge to 18 per cent for his resurgent brand.

We now know that one of those callers was Abbotsford South MLA John van Dongen.

I asked Cummins on Friday if he is still con-fi dent about three more. “Hopeful, let’s put it that way,” he replied.

Van Dongen’s explo-sive departure was ar-ranged, with Cummins’

help, for maximum dam-age to Premier Christy Clark. Van Dongen noti-fi ed the B.C. Liberal caucus that he was quit-ting. Then, in a ques-tionable use of legislature privileges, he launched a broadside on Clark’s in-tegrity.

He cited the $6-mil-lion legal payout in the B.C. Rail sale, a deci-sion made before Clark’s time, and the recent col-lapse of a deal to sell naming rights to B.C. Place. He described the B.C. Liberals as “an or-ganization headed for failure,” then announced

he’s joined the B.C. Conservatives.

Cummins then joined van Dongen at a hotel news conference across the street, as the former Gordon Campbell cab-inet minister disclosed he has hired his own lawyer to dig through the roomful of paper from the B.C. Rail case once again.

Auditor General John Doyle is already in court seeking access to details of the $6 million in law-yer bills, which the At-torney General’s min-istry hasn’t provided be-cause it doesn’t have them. These delicate matters were farmed out to yet more independent lawyers.

Independent spe-cial prosecutor Bill Be-rardino also spent sev-en years and many more millions on the B.C. Rail case, including the role of Clark’s lobby-ist brother, Bruce. He didn’t fi nd the smoking gun now sought by van Dongen.

This effort seems de-signed more for politic-al revenge in an election year than to clarify the sorry legacy of the B.C. Rail sale that has already been examined through two provincial elections.

Van Dongen was at the top of everyone’s list of disgruntled B.C. Liberals. During last year’s leadership con-test, he muttered dark-ly about not only B.C. Rail, but also the integ-rity of fellow Abbots-ford MLA Mike de Jong. Now Clark is van Dongen’s target, with Cummins standing be-side him trying to look statesman-like.Of course van Dongen drove him-self out of cabinet long before Clark returned. Chronic speeding by a public safety minister is a tough sell.

I asked Cummins about the reluctance of key cabinet minis-ters Kevin Falcon and George Abbott to con-fi rm they are running again. His aw-shucks

friendly-grandpa mod-esty precludes specula-tion, but he did allow it’s “maybe a comment on the state of affairs in the Liberal caucus.”

Reporters started sur-veying government MLAs after Falcon and Abbott kept their op-tions open for 2013.

For the record, fellow ministers Terry Lake, Shirley Bond, Pat Bell, Mary Polak, Rich Cole-man and Stephanie Ca-dieux all said they are fi rmly on Clark’s elec-tion team. Independent-minded backbenchers Bill Bennett and Kevin Krueger also saluted the B.C. Liberal banner.

As I was talking with Cummins, B.C. Con-servative advisor Randy White was assuring the Abbotsford News that more defections are coming. Cummins has people for the dirty work.

Bunnies don’t lay eggs. So why are they an Eas-ter symbol?

The central fact of the Christian Easter is the resurrection of Jesus. Some people believe it without question. Others struggle, or try to explain it. Growing numbers re-ject it. Yet regardless of their reaction, they ac-knowledge the centrality of the resurrection.

But because it is so foreign to human ex-perience – come now, name one person you know who died, was bur-ied, and lived again! – we struggle to fi nd symbols for resurrection.

Bunnies may rep-resent fertility, but not resurrection.

Nor do eggs, realistic-ally. What comes out of an egg is the same thing that was inside it. But at least eggs look like something that an un-scientifi c age might have considered dead, which cracks open into new life – even if we know it ain’t so.

Similarly, Easter lil-ies and daffodils suggest something rising from dead soil, even though we know that their bulbs are merely dormant, sheltered by earth from killing frosts.

Butterfl ies too are life transformed, if not life emerging from death.

But chocolate? De-spite being a chocohol-ic myself, I don’t under-stand how chocolate be-came essential to Easter

celebrations. Symbols have a pur-

pose. They put some-thing concrete inside the frame of abstract thought. As an editor, I often struggled with ser-mons and articles that consisted mainly of ab-stractions. They offered a sure cure for insomnia.

Symbols enable us to visualize those abstract concepts. They make mystery graspable. They provide a link between experience and intuition.

So we break bread and drink wine, knowing – regardless of church teachings – that this bread and this wine are not the cells and cor-puscles of a long-ago Jew. It is more than a re-enactment of a com-munity supper. The physical symbols help us enter into a mystery we cannot explain.

In the same way, bap-tism is more than a re-play of ancient migrants passing through the wat-ers of the Red Sea or the Jordan. Whether by im-mersion or sprinkling,

baptism symbolizes the miracle of birth into a new kind of life -- into which we are born wet, just as we were from the womb. If anything, the Red Sea and the Jordan crossings symbolize this rebirth, rather than the reverse.

But we have trouble fi nding symbols that adequately refl ect life emerging from death. Not near-death. Not re-suscitation in the nick of time. Not suspension of death through med-ical technology. But real death.

But I should not be too rational. A symbol need not perfectly match what it symbolizes.

Because, realistic-ally, the sun is not resur-rected each morning. That notion goes back to a time when people be-lieved that the sun lit-erally travelled across the sky. When it sank in the west, it died and was buried below the earth. Next morning, it rose again from death.

We know that’s not how it works.

But when I gath-er with a small group on a grassy knoll, on Eas-ter morning, when we sing with thin voices in the frosty air, when the sun lifts over the ridge to the east and shines in my eyes, I am still deep-ly moved.

O ther than liv-ing in Bermuda for a couple of

years in my rock’n roll days and spending a year in Vancouver seeking my fortune as a teenager, I’ve lived all my life in the sunny Okanagan.

I have seen the city of Kelowna grow from a population of 15,000 in the 1960s to more than 100,000 today.

I remember walking down Bernard Avenue as a teenager and recog-nizing just about every second person I met. Today, most of the people I would encoun-ter on that same walk would be strangers.

Being in the garden-ing business for so many years, I’ve met many people and developed many friendships, which as time goes on, mean more and more to me.

The other day as I was driving around town

executing my duties as a garden consultant, I real-ized my friends includ-ed more than just people. Included in my group of friends are the many trees and shrubs I see on every street—trees and shrubs, some of which I’ve been watching for many years and others that I have met only re-cently.

I know a lot of them personally, such as the Colorado blue spruce at Cottonwoods Extended

Care Hospital that I and then-mayor Jim Stuart planted when the south wing was opened in the early ’80s.

The large spruce across from Kelowna Golf and Country Club on the corner of Moun-tain and Glenmore was planted by myself and good friend Gerry De-shayes in about 1967. I can’t drive by it today without recalling how we hurried to get the job done so we could party that night.

Some trees I consider my friends were planted long before I was born, such as the copper beech on the corner of Saucier and Ethel and the ginko on the corner of Burne and Ethel.

I have many new “tree friends” that have come into existence recently such as the hundreds of boulevard trees the City of Kelowna has planted.

I’m sure all of you no-tice at least one or two trees during your daily travels. Perhaps after reading this you will have a deeper appreci-ation of them, maybe even consider them as your friends.

Just imagine if these trees could talk! What

stories they could tell about what has tran-spired in their presence over the years.

A healthy tree over 100 years of age is a

wondrous organism that could go on and on if it weren’t for stress caused by root compaction, bad pruning practices and other interferences by humans.

There are some trees that will not live as long as others due to their lo-cation, however, we can’t change their lot in life.

Some of our trees will, however, carry on long after we are gone.

A few to note: The Liquidambar styracifl ua, (American sweetgum) in Stuart Park, the ginko biloba (maidenhair tree) group in City Park and the Tilia cordata (linden) at Guisachan. Next time you are out and about I encourage you to be-come acquainted with a few new “tree friends.”

Tune in to The Don Burnett Garden Show on AM 1150 Saturdays, 8 to 10 a.m.

Easter comes ear-ly this April and so does the annual Icebreaker soccer tournament.

It is a sure sign of spring in Lake Country when more than 1,000 players, plus their coach-es and families, des-cend on Beasley Fields to play one of the fi rst soc-cer tournaments of the Western Canadian sea-son.

Organizers are ex-pecting 70 teams this coming weekend in age groups from 12 to 18 years of age.

It will be a slightly smaller fi eld than in past years because only Beas-ley Fields and the two turf fi elds in Kelowna are available to host the tournament this year due to the early season start.

To fi t in all the games the schedule will be rela-tively tight, say organ-izers.

There will be a game starting every 90 minutes on each fi eld at Beasley.

If your decide to take in some of the action, there will be no overtime as tied games will go straight to a shoot-out in an effort to keep every-thing running on time.

Local hotels are al-ready booked solid while Kelowna has accommo-dations for the rest.

In addition to the full local hotels, local cater-ers have been hired to supply food at the com-munity center at Beas-ley Park.

All in all, it is a big start to the spring and summer recreation sea-son in Lake Country.

“It should be really good for Lake Country and Kelowna,” said Col-leen Boechler, tourna-ment coordinator.

“It will be a busy weekend, we just hope there is no snow.”

Huge soccer tourney kicks off

CONTRIBUTED

KELOWNA UNDER-13 girls play a team from Vernon at the 2011 Icebreaker soccer tournament. This year, organizers are expecting 70 teams to participate in the traditional spring soccer tournament.

A 33-year-old Al-berta man has lost his truck for seven days and maybe longer after being clocked at nearly twice the posted limit late last week on Highway 97, just north of the Kelow-na airport.

On March 27, around 9 p.m., a RCMP Central Okanagan traffi c services offi cer clocked a black Chevy Silverado trav-eling at more than 170 kilometres per hour on Highway 97 just north of the Kelowna Inter-national Airport.

The posted limit in the area is 90 kilometres per hour.

Police stopped the vehicle and issued the driver a hefty fi ne along with a seven-day im-pound of the truck.

A small amount of marijuana was seized from the vehicle but the driver did not show any signs of impairment.

Due to the extremely dangerous speeds, police will be requesting an ex-tension of the impound, said Const. Kris Clark.

“Speed can be decep-tive. Although it may ap-pear to the driver that he or she is in control of your vehicle, your reac-tion time will remain the same at any speed. Phys-ics dictates that the faster you’re going, the longer it will take you to stop,” said Clark.

The violation tick-et for excessive speed is up to $483 plus a man-datory seven-day im-poundment of the vehicle.

Driver caught doing nearly double the Hwy 97 speed limit

The District of Lake Country’s water utility crews will be flushing the Oyama Lake Source (east side of Wood Lake) the week of April the 9th. While there should be no interruption to service, customers may experience temporary lower than normal water pressure and possibly discoloured water for short periods of time. If discolouration is noticed, run the cold water tap until the water is clear. During this period, residents are asked to watch for flushing trucks in their neighbourhood and for best results wash laundry after flushing is done for the day. Water main flushing is an important part of good water utility management. Water mains accumulate sediment over time and flushing helps to decrease these deposits and offer our community the best water quality possible. Please contact the Engineering Department at 250-766-6677 should you have further questions.

The parking lot at Swalwell Park will be closed until approximately June 2012 for construction and paving of the new parking lot. Parking is available on Bottom Wood Lake Road across from the Swalwell ball diamonds and crews will endeavour to open portions of the parking lot as soon as it is safe to do so. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. For more information contact Steve Schaffrick, Director of Parks, Recreation and Culture at 250 766 5650 or email [email protected]

It’s early in the sea-son, but police are urging motorists to be aware and watch for motorcyc-lists on the roads.

Two recent motor-cycle collisions in the Central Okanagan have already darkened the start of this year’s motor-cycle season.

Motorcyclists are cau-tioned to drive defen-

sively and obey the traf-fi c laws. There are more hazards on the roads to motorcyclists in the early season considering that the winter wear and dirt remains, affecting your ability to stop or turn. Other motorists have also not yet acclimatized to the presence of motor-cycles on the roadway.

Proper training and

equipment is strong-ly encouraged, but wear-ing your helmet is the law and may well save your life.

Studies have shown that wearing a proper helmet can increase your chance of surviving a crash and reduce the risk of serious head injuries.

Novelty beanie hel-

mets are just that, novel-ties. They provide no protection and should never be worn in lieu of a DOT- or Snell-approved helmet, say police

If you are involved in a collision when riding a motorcycle, the reality is you may not get a second chance.

Cultural Presentation ‘Spaced Out’ 12:30pm

Harmony Week was celebrated at Peter Greer blending the artistic side of life with the human kindness side of life. Our “Harmony Tree” represents the virtues that we learn about and practice on a daily basis – fairness, respect, honesty, empathy, responsibility and courage (to do the right thing). The artistic side was modelled after the works of Kandinsky who believed that simple pictures were like little melodies and complex paintings were like grand symphonies. Enjoy our Harmony Tree – we all enjoyed creating it.

Enjoying Harmony at Peter Greer

Aidan enjoying

the taffy treat!

Presenter, Rene Turmel, owner of his own maple orchard in Quebec, is also known as the Maple Man. Rene has devoted his time to sharing the cultures of Quebec with Canadian students. Rene Turmel brought the atmosphere of the traditional sugar shack to Ecole Peter Greer Elementary with his violin, wooden spoons, danc-ing puppets, and most importantly, his maple syrup taffy!

On our French Cultural Day, students had the opportunity to interact with the Maple Man and taste maple taffy. They participated in cultural folk dance and learned how to play the wooden spoons. Our students had fun participating in a “sap” relay race, used charcoal to cre-ate maple forest pictures, and played Maple Bingo to learn new french vocabulary!

Preparing maple taffy treats for students!
