Smoking banned at beaches
by John Arendt
Smokers at Summer-land’s beaches will have to go elsewhere for a nicotine fix.
On Monday, munici-pal council adopted a no smoking policy for the community’s beaches.
The municipality’s Parks and Recreation Commission recom-mended the policy, which follows similar policies at other Okanagan com-munities.
Signs will be set up at Crescent Beach, Peach Orchard Beach, Rotary Beach and Powell Beach.
The cost of putting up one sign at Crescent Beach and two signs at the other three beaches is estimated at $500.
Coun. Martin Van
Alphen, who is a smoker, moved the resolution.
“I think it’s fabulous,” he said. “This is common sense.”
Members of council would like to add muni-cipal parks in the future.
Coun. Peter Water-man said including parks would help since fire is a concern on Giant’s Head Mountain in summer. In August, 1996, a fire on the mountain charred trees and threatened homes in the surrounding area.
Earlier in the evening, a delegation of third-year nursing students asked council to create a no smoking bylaw for all city-managed properties, including beaches, parks and trails.

Testing for a recently developed electrical power producing unit will soon begin now that 10 of the devices can be connected to the electrical power grid in Summer-land.
On Monday evening, council authorized an agreement with Electro-Motion Energy to connect up to 10 of the Revolu-tion power supply units at residences within Sum-merland.
The Revolution com-bines residential heating, cooling, hot water and backup electrical systems into one unit.
Surplus electricity is produced because of the efficiencies which result from the combined sys-tem. This electricity can be fed back into the elec-
trical grid, thus reducing the amount of power FortisBC must supply for Summerland.
For the past two years, since installing the first Revolution unit at a Sum-merland home, Zachary has been promoting and refining the concept.
“I commend you for what you have done so far,” Coun. Lloyd Chris-topherson said.”I’m start-ing to understand some of the basics of it.”
Coun. Peter Waterman said there are exciting opportunities for Sum-merland as the unit gains popularity.
Municipal administrator Tom Day said this is the third time Zachary has pre-sented his request to coun-cil, refining it each time. “I think there’s a real oppor-tunity for this,” he said.
Testing allowed for energy units

Summerland Review Thursday, October 31, 2013 N e w s www.summerlandreview.com 3
Scheduled transit service beginsby John Arendt
After years of waiting and plan-ning, Summerland’s scheduled transit ser-vice began quietly on Monday morning.
A total of 14 people, including members of muni-cipal council, com-muters and those interested in the new service, were on the 20-passenger bus.
The bus left Sum-merland Library at 7:15 a.m. and fol-lowed a loop through town with a stop in Trout Creek. It arrived at Cherry Lane Shopping Cen-tre in Penticton by 8 a.m.
“This is a big move forward for Summer-land,” said Mayor Janice Perrino.
“It will really assist people who live in Summerland but need to commute to activities.”
She said youths, commuters and seniors, especially those with medical appointments, will
be among the first regular users of the service.
Perrino cam-paigned for a transit service in Summer-land when she ran for municipal council in 1999.
When the road upgrades on Rose-dale Avenue and a portion of Prairie Val-ley Road were com-pleted early in 2011, the work included bus shelters and pull-outs.
Until Monday, the bus shelters on Rose-dale Avenue had only been used by Sum-merland Secondary School students.
The scheduled service provides a bus between Sum-merland and Pentic-ton four times a day, Monday to Friday.
The first bus leav-ing Summerland is at 7:15 a.m. and the last one leaves at 4:30 p.m.
From Pentic-ton, the first bus to Summerland leaves Cherry Lane Shop-ping Centre at 8:05
a.m. and the last one leaves at 5:15 p.m.
The transit stops throughout the com-munity are clearly marked with signs and with red curbs.
There are 10 stops in Summerland, with eight in the core of the community and two in Trout Creek.
Only four of the stops are timed stops.
At a timed stop, the driver will stop at a set time and wait to pick up passen-gers.
At the untimed
stops, the bus will not stop unless there are passengers waiting or unless a passenger has requested to get off.
The timed stops are identified on the rider guide.
Service between Penticton and Sum-merland is free for the remainder of this year.
In 2014, the fee will be $2 for a trip within Summerland and $4 for a trip to Pentic-ton.
Monthly transit
passes and student or senior discounts may be offered when the rates are set in place.
A rider guide, including a route map and schedule, is available at muni-cipal hall, the Sum-merland Library and other locations around the commun-ity.
Transit information is available online at http://www.bctran-s i t . c o m / re g i o n s /s u m / s c h e d u l e s /map.cfm?line=1&v=u
Riding the busPassengers waited in the darkness as the first transit bus arrived across the street from the Summerland Library on Monday morning. The new service provides rides to Penticton four times a day Monday to Friday. Evening and weekend service has been suggested for the future.
DrivingBus driver Janet Weir drove 14 passengers through Summerland and to Penticton on the inagural scheduled ride on Monday morning.
VICTORIA – With the B.C. and federal governments once again struggling to climb out of deep operating deficits, it’s a good time for the release of Mark Milke’s book Tax Me, I’m Canadian.
An update of the same title pub-lished 12 years ago, the book retains the his-tory of taxes in Canada, detail-ing how Can-ada’s tax sys-tem was initially built to mimic the United States system in the late 19th century.
Beyond the history, it is mostly new material. Includ-ed are chapters on the global meltdown of 2009, the surge of pension liabilities as the baby boomers retire and the flawed logic behind the “Occupy” and “Idle No More” protests.
Some readers will immedi-ately note that Milke works for the Fraser Institute and was previously B.C. director of the Canadian Taxpayers’ Federa-tion. But the book is not just an argument for cutting taxes. It also dismantles persistent myths that income taxes are illegal, and launches a broad-side on what Milke calls “Can-ada’s corporate welfare carni-val.”
Many people will be able to identify some top names in the government subsidy game: Bombardier, General Motors, even poor old Rolls Royce Can-ada.
Some will also be well aware
that our supposedly tight-fist-ed Conservative federal gov-ernment has continued to pour out “regional development” and other funds to every part of the country.
But I did not know that Industry Canada grants were handed out to pizza parlours (including the remote pizza-starved village of Kamloops), or to help open gas stations or convenience stores in Kelowna, Vernon and Chilliwack.
Milke makes a useful point for B.C. about royalty rates for timber, natural gas and other resources. They are resource rents, and if they are too high the tenants will move out. Reducing them isn’t a subsidy, especially if it leads to big rev-enue gains as B.C.’s unconven-tional shale gas incentives have done.
On the Occupy movement: The infamous “one per cent,” who in Canada earn $250,000 a year or more, earned 10 per cent of all income and paid 20 per cent of all taxes in 2010. The bottom 73 per cent of tax filers paid just 17 per cent of all taxes. About a third paid no tax at all.
On Idle No More: When Attawapiskat Chief Teresa Spence played to the Ottawa media with her soup strike, former Liberal leader Bob Rae suggested a nearby diamond mine should share more rev-enue.
Milke omits the substantial support and employment that mine provides, and glosses over the misguided blockades that disrupted that and other
job-creating enterprises. But he does detail the disastrous effects of passive resource wealth bestowed on impover-ished aboriginal communities, and contrasts it with the success stories of reserves that build their own enterprises through hard work.
On public sector pensions: Milke notes that historically, public employees traded high-er wages for better benefits and job security.
Now their wages are gener-ally higher, and taxpayers have to cover their personal pension contributions (as a portion of those wages) as well as the employer contributions, plus the “defined benefit” payout, which has to be subsidized far beyond what the pension fund can support.
On the debt-financed wel-fare state, there are memor-able observations, like this one: “For the record, the generous Quebec welfare state and its ostensibly more progressive model are paid for in part with the taxes of other Can-adians; Quebec is merely the North American equivalent of Greece.”
The recent B.C. political crisis over adoption of the har-monized sales tax showed that there is too much emotion and too little knowledge about how taxes work. This book is a step towards addressing that.

SUMMERLAND REVIEWA PART OF THE COMMUNITY SINCE 1908 WWW.SUMMERLANDREVIEW.COM
After the numerous announce-ments and warn-ings about the dangers of leaving gar-bage and r e c y c l a b l e s outside over-night, too many Summer-landers continue this practice.
We have had bear encounters and other wildlife in Summerland several times over the past year. The scents from the garbage will serve as an attractant.
In order to prevent a nuisance wildlife problem, it is up to all of us to use a bit of common sense.
bad apples
After many years of waiting, a scheduled transit service is now in place between S u m m e r l a n d and Penticton.
The ser-vice was well used during its first rides on Monday.
Whether this level of activity continues is up to the people of Summerland.
If the Monday to Friday day-time service proves popular, it is likely the service will expand to include weekend and evening buses in the future.
ourpickClearing
the smokeAt first glance, a policy
prohibiting smoking at Summerland’s beaches seems like a good idea.
The vast majority of British Columbians — six out of seven people — are nonsmok-ers and most of those do not wish to be exposed to second-hand smoke when they are at a beach.
For those who have asth-ma, other respiratory compli-cations, allergies or a height-ened sensitivity to tobacco, a smoke-free beach is welcome.
The policy adopted for Summerland’s beaches would also be applauded if it applied to parks and trails within the community.
The no smoking policy at the beaches is simply an exten-sion of earlier policies.
Many public buildings are now smoke-free in British Columbia.
One no longer can dine in the smoking section of a restaurant. Bar patrons must step outside when they want a cigarette break. Employees at many businesses must leave the office to light up.
The precedents have been set.
The health risks associated with smoking are known.
Education about the dan-gers of tobacco use have been in place for many years. The anti-smoking messages take up considerable space on each package of cigarettes.
And some have watched family members or friends struggle with health problems or die prematurely as a result of this addiction.
At the same time, as Coun. Lloyd Christopherson has pointed out, cigarettes are legally sold in Canada.
A much stronger message could be sent simply by ban-ning the sale of tobacco prod-ucts entirely.
While some may see this as a measure akin to prohibition, it should be noted that other products have been pulled from the shelves in the past because of health concerns.
Until that happens, a no smoking policy at beaches will not go far enough.

The early years
A frightening spectacleWhat’s really scary is that these guys aren’t celebrating Halloween, they’re about to throw stones at each other—curling stones, that is. We don’t know who they are (they probably wouldn’t want to be identified if we did) and we’re not quite sure of the year, but if you know anything about this photo, the staff at the Summerland Museum would like to hear from you. Have a safe and happy Halloween.

Dear Editor:I have been very
upset with some of the developments by Prime Minister Ste-phen Harper.
I know he loves flitting around the world as a leader-fig-
ure, but he is serious-ly neglecting things in Canada.
It was noble of him to chide Sri Lanka regarding human rights, but we in Can-ada have dire needs regarding Aborig-
inal/First Nations treatment.
The poverty, ter-rible living condi-tions and high sui-cide rates bespeak of a huge neglect of some of our citizens. Indian women have
always been given second-class treat-ment. The police have a very sorry record of this.
Where are the sci-entists to oversee and do research on water, fishery and environ-
mental needs? It is truly disgusting to spend $1 billion on a new “secret” build-ing and not be able to fund valuable and needed research.
Fracking uses large amounts of water and
pollutes it all. Do we have people to check what the mining companies are doing to purify the water which, untreated, is poison to all life? This is an enormous con-cern.
The new naviga-tion rules, conven-iently hidden in the omnibus budget, will cause changes over the whole country. Why not be hon-est and debate such topics openly and separately?
Get rid of sleazy senators like Mike Duffy and such. Where is the promise of an elected senate?
Defence spend-ing is wacky — $22 million for designs? The coast helicopters must be replaced. It is criminal to have pilots fly the old ones.
Have you seen Minister Clement’s “lake?” That kind of extravagance has no place in a properly run government.
How much is spent on unnecessary limos, security and other perks?
Prime Minister Harper’s personal security and travel costs must be enough to fund several scien-tists, or do you know the cost?
Trades training should be funded for a longer term, with provincial and com-pany cooperation.
Parliament should meet with longer time lines.
Proroguing has become a way of life for the Prime Minis-ter.
It is undemocratic and reflects badly on his whole attitude.
Sheila WhiteSummerland
Harper neglecting issues at home
Dear Editor:See these Conserv-
atives, how they love one another.
Hear these pithy questions from the Opposition.
1. “How many is a few?” Regarding how many people knew about a cheque
for Sen. Mike Duffy.2. “How is that
going?” Regarding the Conservative Party’s vow to reform or abolish the Senate.
Watch the Conserv-ative National Con-vention next weekend.
Dick ClementsSummerland
Dear Editor:Foster parents you
are a special breed! It takes a combina-
tion of love, care, firmness, boundaries, structure, nurture, forgiveness, compas-sion and toughness to meet the needs of our children in care.
You open your homes, hearts and
families to children that have complex issues, and special needs, this takes people like you with courage, deter-mination, patience, empathy and strength. The Oka-nagan Foster Parents Association would like to express grati-tude for your warmth
and compassion. We also encour-
age you to pat your-selves on the back. The work done on a day to day basis by you the foster par-ents is invaluable, upstanding and often unacknowledged.
This month brings recognition to all fos-ter parents for your
continued commit-ment to improve the lives of children and youth, and to go above and beyond while meeting the needs of these chil-dren and youth.
October is Foster Family Appreciation month in B.C. As the Okanagan Foster Parents Associations’
new South Oka-nagan Foster Parent Coordinator, I look forward to establish-ing positive, empow-ering relationships with our Foster Par-ent Community and Community Partners.

$500,000 set up to establish new intiative
A new Penny Lane Community Fund, with an initial commitment of $500,000, has been cre-ated by the Community Foundation of the South Okanagan and the Sum-merland Charity Shops Society.
Over the past 11 years, the Summerland Charity Shops Society, operating the Penny Lane Bargain Outlet in Summerland, contributed more than $2 million to youth organizations in Sum-merland and the rest of the region.
Penny Lane began in 2002 with the commit-ment of the six founders, the late Art Sewell, Ellen Lloyd, Orv Robson, Bruce Hallquist, Allan Fabbi, and Scott Boswell.
In the beginning the hope and vision of the board, and in particu-
lar Art Sewell, was that Penny Lane would be able to assist the youth of Summerland and South Okanagan for 10 to 15 years with the end goal being to create a lasting legacy fund.
The current directors, including Rick Thorpe who replaced Sewell, remain passionate about giving back to the com-munity and are commit-ted to continuing sup-port of youth related pro-grams.
“ C i r c u m s t a n c e s beyond our control forced the closure of the Penny Lane store,” said Orv Robson, chair of the Sum-merland Charity Shops Society.
“With the creation of the Penny Lane Com-munity Legacy Fund, we will be able to continue to support the youth in Summerland and the South Okanagan.”
With an initial gift to the Community Founda-
tion of $500,000, the new Penny Lane Commun-ity Legacy Fund is a sig-nificant step for both the Community Foundation and the youth programs which will be supported with this Fund.
“The Community Foundation is honoured to have earned the con-fidence of the Sum-merland Charity Shops Society,”said Susan Kelly, president of the Com-munity Foundation of the South Okanagan Similka-meen.
“They have had incredible success over the years and have made amazing contributions to the community. The Community Foundation is absolutely committed to fulfilling Penny Lane‘s mandate and vision for this Fund and we look forward to perpetuating the impact of the Penny Lane Community Legacy Fund for the benefit of our youth.”

Q: I have a CPAP and I don’t like it. I can never wear it the entire night and some nights I don’t wear it at all. I know there is a dental treatment option, can you tell me more about it? - Anonymous.
A: You are not alone! Some people can adapt to sleeping with a CPAP machine, but there are a lot of people that simply can’t tolerate it, for many reasons. Getting a quality nightly sleep is very important so if you cannot wear your CPAP, I am so glad that you are seeking help. In dentistry we offer a medical orthodontic appliance as an alternative to the CPAP machine. It is designed to move your lower jaw forward to allow you to breath better at night. If you already have a CPAP machine, that means you have been diagnosed with “sleep apnea” by your medical doctor. Your dentist will take a couple of impressions of your teeth and then an appliance can be made. Your dentist can then test how much better your breathing and sleep patterns are with the new appliance. As with anything new, it may take a few weeks to get used to, but most of my patients find their appliance much more comfortable than the CPAP machine and notice the improvements in their quality of sleep very quickly.
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!

Household elec-trical power pro-ducing units could greatly reduce the amount of electrical power the commun-ity needs to purchase from FortisBC, Jai Zachary says.
Zachary, the head of ElectroMotion Energy Corporation, said his company’s unit, the Revolu-tion, not only saves energy for the house-holder but generates more than enough electricity to meet the householder ’s needs.
“When we gen-erate electricity at a home, that means we’re not asking for it from the grid,” he said.
The Revolution combines household heating, cooling, hot water and backup electrical systems into one unit.
Surplus electricity from the unit is fed back into the elec-trical grid, where it can supplement the power coming in from FortisBC.
Zachary said each Revolution unit in operation can pro-duce as much power as three homes would require.
This means 10 Revolution units would generate the amount of electrical power used by 30 houses.
If 1,000 Revolution units were in place, enough power would
be generated to meet the electrical needs of all single family homes in the com-
munity.The municipality
purchases electrical power from FortisBC
and sells it to power consumers within the community.
Lorrie Coates, dir-
ector of finance for the municipality said Summerland spent $6,713,900 on electri-city purchases from FortisBC in 2012. From January to the end of September of this year, Sum-merland has spent $5,044,263 on electri-city.
“It’s definitely a significant cost,” Coates said.
The first Revolu-tion unit in Summer-land was installed in the fall of 2011.
During a power outage the next year, the house continued to have electricity, even though other homes were in the dark for the day.
Zachary has since modified the design of the original unit.
One model, designed for use in the Arctic, can func-tion in up to 2.4 metres of snow.
Zachary said he has received interest from the Northwest Territories govern-ment.
Testing of the unit is now needed to determine how it will work in real-life con-ditions.
“So far, our tests are very promising and encouraging,” Zachary said.
The testing will now take place in Summerland as per-mission has been given to have 10 Revolution units con-nected to the electric-al grid.

Units would reduce power use
Energy saverInventor Jai Zachary says the ElectroMotion Energy Corporation’s unit, the Revolution, can reduce power consumption and generate electricity.

CounCil report
Continued from Page 1“It will help
change behaviour,” said Sonam Aheer, speaking to council.
Mayor Janice Per-rino said a no smok-ing policy or bylaw must be written care-fully. “We want to
encourage them with gentle enforcement,” she said.
Coun. Lloyd Chris-topherson, a lifelong nonsmoker, said he was uneasy with the proposed bylaw.
“For me, what I have difficulty with
is smoking is not illegal,” he said.
Van Alphen said he is in support of a broad no smoking bylaw. “I commend you. I truly do,” he said, add-ing that smoking “is something I do strug-gle with.”
The regular meeting of municipal council was held on Oct. 28 in council chambers.
The mayor and all council members were present.Resource options study received
Council received the 72-page Resource Options Study, prepared by Midgard Consult-ing Inc.
The report examined options for the muni-cipality to pursue for self-generated electricity.
While the options in the report are all pos-sible, the executive summary stated that none are as attractive as the present arrangement of purchasing electricity from FortisBC under the existing agreement.
The wholesale rates from FortisBC are low compared to the costs of new sources of elec-trical energy. Even with anticipated increases to FortisBC’s rates, the cost gap will not be closed.
“None of the analyzed utility generation options compare favourably when evaluated against the existing FortisBC energy purchase contract,” the report stated.Gravel study received
Council received a 46-page Gravel Resource Management Study, prepared by Interior Test-ing Services Ltd.
The study was conducted to examine prob-able gravel sources for the community.Zoning amendment prepared
Municipal staff will prepare a zoning bylaw amendment to rezone 9348 Alder St. from RSD2-Residential Large Lot to RSD1-Residen-tial Medium Lot.Curling Club license renewed
The Summerland Curling Club license of occupation was renewed for the next three curling seasons, based on an increase of three per cent each year.
The Summerland Curling Club has had three-year arrangements with the municipal-ity since 1976.
The Curling Club also works in partnership with the Parks and Recreation Department, providing 50 per cent of the funds needed for many of the capital projects at the curling rink.Site considered for sculpture
The northwest corner of Victoria Road and Prairie Valley Road will be considered as a future site for public art.
The resolution came following a request from the Parks and Recreation Commission.
Dale MacDonald, director of parks and recreation, said he has been meeting with the Summerland Community Arts Council to discuss the possibility of public art in the area.Indemnification bylaw adopted
Council gave final reading to the indemni-fication bylaw.Tax exemption bylaw read
Council gave first three readings to a bylaw to grant permissive tax exemptions for 2014.Financial plan amended
Council gave final reading to a bylaw to amend its five-year financial plan for 2013 to 2017.Expenditure bylaw adopted
The Development Cost Charge Reserve Fund Expenditure bylaw for the Prairie Valley Road improvements was given final reading.

Used hearing aids will be given a new life as the Quest Society for Hear-ing Enhancement is preparing to collect and recondition used hearing aids.
Joan Lansdell of Quest said the hear-ing aid initiative will begin early next year.
Hearing aids five years old or newer will be collected at pharmacies in Sum-merland.
The units will then be sent to the Western
Institute for the Deaf for reconditioning.
Once the recondi-tioning is completed, the hearing aids will come back to Sum-merland, where they
will be available for those who otherwise could not afford hear-ing aids.
“We’ve got so many people here who need our help,”
she said.She estimates that
around 25 per cent of Summerland retirees need help in acquir-ing a hearing aid.
A set of hearing
aids will cost around $6,000.
“Where are you going to get the money if you are on a limited income?” she asked.
While the details of the program have not been finalized, Lans-dell said those receiv-ing the aids will be required to pay a por-tion of the cost.
Since 1999, the Summerland-based nonprofit society has been working to benefit deaf and hard of hearing people in the community.

Poppy drive begins
As Remembrance Day approaches, Summerlanders are wearing poppies on their lapels and col-lars.
Poppies became available on Friday and they will be worn until Remembrance Day.
Money from the sale of poppies will go to assist with the care of veterans, said Elke Bewick, man-ager of the Summer-land Legion.
This care includes assistance to indi-vidual veterans as well as support for the Veterans’ Tran-sition Program and the Military Skills Conversion Pro-gram.
“The poppy fund is solely for the veter-ans,” she said.
Poppies have been used as a symbol of remembrance in Can-ada since 1921.
Bewick said an estimated 20,000 pop-pies are distributed in Summerland.
The Remembrance Day ceremony will be held in Memor-ial Park on Monday, Nov. 11 at 11 a.m.
Volunteers wanted
Summerland Red Cross is looking for more volunteers.
Those interested in volunteering are asked to please call 250-494-0818 and leave their name and number where they can be reached.

Check the battery - If a bat-tery is older than four years, it may not work well in cold weather. When in doubt, replace it.
Check � lters, coolants and hoses - Make sure all filters (oil, gas and air) are in good condition. Check the coolant and thermostat to ensure proper engine warm-up, and make sure your heater and defroster work. Coolant should be changed every two years, though the extended-life coolants used in many newer vehi-cles last about five years. Check for
leaking or soft hoses and replace as needed.
Emergencies - Put together an emergency kit containing gloves, boots, blankets, flares, a small shovel, sand or kitty litter (handy for providing traction on slippery surfaces), tire chains, a flashlight and a cell phone. You may also want to put a few “high-energy” snacks in your glove box.
Next week we’ll look at late Fall maintenance tips so you are ready for winter!

Bursary recipientLindsay Jenner was the recipient of a $1,000 bursary from the Kiwanis Club of Summerland at this year’s graduation ceremony. Presenting the cheque is Tom Jacques, president of the Kiwanis Club.
Learning leadershipA group of 48 Grade 9 and 10 students from Summerland Secondary School participated in a recent leadership retreat in Westbank. The retreat, sponsored by the Sum-merland Rotary Club, Penny Lane and the Summerland Asset Development Initiative, was held at Green Bay Camp.
Police in Sum-merland were a lit-tle less busy in the third quarter of this year compared with the same period last year.
In his quarterly report, Sgt. Stephane Lacroix of the Sum-merland RCMP detachment said police responded to 843 calls for service
in the third quarter of this year, a decrease of around three per cent from the same period in 2012.
“Nearly all crime types remain lower
than they were dur-ing the first three quarters of 2012,” he said.
Assaults, vehicle thefts, break and enters and mis-
chief complaints all showed lower num-bers.
In the first three quarter of this year, there were 55 mis-chief complaints reported, down sig-
nificantly from 104 in the same period a year earlier.
There have been 24 thefts from vehi-cles so far this year, compared with 43 from January to the
end of September last year.
Vehicle theft num-bers dropped from 23 in the first nine months of 2012 to nine in the first nine months of this year.

Drivers urged to prepare for winter roads
Winter weather is just around the cor-ner, and drivers need to be prepared for snowy and icy condi-tions.
Motorists are required to have win-ter tires or carry suit-able chains from Oct. 1 to April 30 while travelling on high-ways designated with winter travel signs.
The best way to prepare is to equip your vehicle with good winter tires, identified with a mountain snowflake symbol that appears on the tire sidewalls.
While winter tires are not mandatory, there are many routes which regularly experience severe winter conditions.
On these routes, winter tires or chains are mandatory and signs are posted to warn drivers.
A map of the
designated high-ways where motor-ists must have winter tires or chains can be found at th.gov.bc.ca/SeasonalDriv-ing/winter_chains.html
In light of changing technology, the Min-istry of Transporta-tion and Infrastruc-ture will review the existing definition of winter tires and chains as part of the highway speed and safety review that is underway.
While this review is ongoing, the police will continue with past practice of allowing either tires with a mountain snowflake symbol or an M+S designa-tion on highways where winter tires are required, as long as they are in good condition with a min-imum tread depth of 3.5 mm.

The HuntNovember 7
at 4 & 7 p.m. at the Landmark 7 Cinema**** A Great Accomplishment
****Intense **** Compelling****A small tight-knit community; a lost, lonely child and a story told. Lucas is down on his luck; he is subbing as a kindergarten teacher, has recently been divorced and is trying to reconnect with his teenaged son. When he discovers little Klara lingering alone in the middle of town, he offers to take her home but when he spurns a childish token of her affection, it sets in motion a chain of events that daily become ingredients in a smothering presumption of guilt. Troubling, powerful and brilliantly crafted, the film subtly weighs each moral stone that is cast when an innocent world starts to collapse.

Scoreboard
A tailgate partyAaron Halliday, left, sings while Holly Findlay and James Likei prepare food at the Summerland IGA’s Tailgate Party at the Summerland Steam hockey game on Sunday afternoon.
Summerland’s Jus-tin Kripps made a solid start to the pre-Olympic season mak-ing the podium in both the two-man and four-man bobsleigh at the Canadian Nation-al Bobsleigh Cham-pionships.
Kripps paired up with newcom-er Bryan Barnett (a Canadian Olympic sprinter) to take the silver medal in the two-man event held at Whistler.
He was happy with their perform-ance but still thinks they can improve sig-nificantly.
Whistler is one of the most challen-ging tracks in the world and “not the easiest place to have your first race,” said Kripps, “but Bryan really showed a lot of potential there and I was reasonably happy with my driv-ing, but I know I can do better.”
The four-man event
was held in Park City Utah, in conjunction with the USA Team Trials. Team Kripps (Justin, Tim Randall, James McNaughton and Graham Rin-holm) put in two solid heats to take the bronze medal.
“In the first heat our push was a bit slow but the drive was good,” said Kripps, “then in the second heat the team stepped it up for a much better start, but I made a couple of errors in the drive,
now we have to work on getting all the good parts together and being consistent. It has been a really useful training two weeks, and we know
what we have to work on.”
The first World Cup race in the series of eight, will be held in Calgary at the end of November.
Bobsleigh effortJustin Kripps and Bryan Barnett won silver at the Canadian 2-man bobsleigh Championships in Whistler.

Kripps earns podium finishes
The Summerland Bantam House hock-ey team faced Kelow-na Oct. 19 but Kelow-na had to forfeit.
Summerland goal-ie Pierre Holmes stepped into net for the other team so the
game could still be played for fun.
It was an even matchup, made even more exciting in the third period when Karter Wilms swooped in behind Summerland goalie
Austin Bubar to help save a goal.
Friday night action saw Summerland pit-ted against Penticton 1.
The Jets came out strong in the first per-iod but Penticton got the upper hand until Sean Wilson scored assisted by Gage McKelvie and Remy Houde.
Brett Wilson scored in the second per-iod unassisted and in the same period Sean Wilson scored unassisted.
Fast paced action continued into the third when Penticton tied it up and fin-ished with a 3-3 tie game.
The Bantam team’s next games are at home Nov. 2 and 3.

Summerland Review Thursday, October 31, 2013 L i f e s t y L e www.summerlandreview.com 19
There’s a lot hap-pening both on stage and on the silver screen in the next few weeks.
First up is the Good Will Shakespeare Fes-tival Society AGM which will take place this Sunday, Novem-ber 3 at 4 p.m. in the Summerland Second-ary School Lounge area.
For more informa-tion please contact Linda Beaven at 250-494-1248 or [email protected]
On stage at the Cleland Theatre this Sunday is the North Shore Celtic Ensem-ble - the first show in
the 2013-14 season for Children’s Showcase. You can get tickets at The Beanery Coffee Company.
The Hunt will be shown Nov.7 at 4 and 7 p.m. at Landmark 7 Cinema in Pentic-ton. This is part of the Penticton Art Gal-lery’s Kitchen Stove Film Series. This film is about a small tight-knit community; a lost, lonely child and a story told. Lucas is down on his luck; he is subbing as a kin-dergarten teacher, has recently been divorced and is try-ing to reconnect with his teenaged son.
When he discovers little Klara lingering alone in the middle of town, he offers to take her home but when he spurns a childish token of her affec-tion, it sets in motion a chain of events that
daily become ingredi-ents in a smothering presumption of guilt. Troubling, powerful and brilliantly craft-ed, the film subtly weighs each moral stone that is cast when an innocent world starts to col-lapse.
Many Hats The-atre Company is back with their sixth and final play of the year - Jessie’s Landing, by award-winning New Brunswick play-wright John Spurway. This play opens on Nov. 14 at the Can-nery Stage. Show-times are Thursday, Friday and Saturday
at 8 p.m. and Sun-day at 2 p.m. until Dec. 7. The opening night performance will be followed by a reception in the adjoining Opus Bis-tro Café which will offer an opportunity to meet the cast and crew. Reserved seat tickets are available at the Wine Country Visitor’s Centre Rail-way and Eckhardt in Penticton or reserved by phone at 250-276-
2170. The licensed Opus Bistro Café will be open for every show with a tempt-ing menu of dinner options. Reserve your table at Opus by call-ing 778-476-5856.

A celebration of stage and screen
by Carla McLeodSpecial to the
Review
Margot Stolz is the new Artist in Resi-dence at the Summer-land Art Gallery.
She combines her drawings, paint-ings and photos with pure beeswax. It is a 2,000-year-old medium that is see-ing resurgence of late.
“Beeswax has the ability to encapsulate things forever,” Stolz said. “Because of the lack of bees and how they have been dying, I feel really honoured and fortunate to
work with this right now. Years from now we might be working with synthetic wax. There may not be any more beeswax.”
As a permanent resident of Summer-land, Stolz said the South Okanagan has always been a choice place for her and she is inspired by the landscape here.
“Nature is a huge inspiration for me,” she said. “I do art to express myself and as a therapy for my own healing journey, but I don’t think I would be doing it if
it wasn’t for my con-nection to nature. Art and nature are my spirituality.”
Stolz left her full time career as a teach-er, because of a vio-lent incident that left her suffering from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. Being able to do her art full time has been her therapy.
She said the butter-fly motif comes up in her work because she relates the stages of a butterfly’s life to that of someone with PTSD, explain-ing how, first one cocoons, because the
symptoms are so bad. Slowly one grows and morphs into something else, and then emerges back into the world, hav-ing recreated oneself.
As an artist she is very grateful for the opportunity to work out of the Art Gallery studio.
“Normally artists work in isolation, so if you want pub-lic accessibility with visibility, this is a godsend,” she said. “Here anyone can drop in, ask ques-tions and watch me work.”
In the studioMargot Stolz combines her art with beeswax. She has been selected as Summerland’s Artist in Residence. Her studio is at the Summerland Art Gallery.
