RCMP emergency response team members swooped down on Summerland on Sunday and successfully arrested a federal parolee who had been missing for almost three weeks.

Andrew Robert Hardenstine was wanted on a Canada-wide warrant since he left a halfway house in Kamloops on Jan. 14.

A public bulletin had been issued by RCMP at that time about the 33-year-old which stated he had a lengthy criminal record of violence against people.

“He had been

approaching a house or pulling up to a house and he stopped in a vehicle at a property that was being monitored and he fled from there,” said RCMP spokesman Cpl. Dan Moskaluk.

“He was arrested and captured in close proximity at a nearby property he was not related to.”

Summerlanders saw police in uniform and plain clothes, K9 and Emergency Task Force members in action.

Police stopped and searched cars and knocked on doors during the search in Summerland.

Police advised

neighbours to stay indoors.

According to Moskaluk, two other individuals in the vehicle also fled.

He said because Hardenstine was the priority they concentrated efforts on locating and arresting him.

Police investigation is ongoing to confirm the identity of the two individuals who fled.

Hardenstine has multiple prior convictions including theft, robbery and break and enter that stem from incidents in Penticton.

Councilcalls offbaseballland talk

Dramatic arrest

Municipal council has resolved to discontinue negotiations for the sale of municipal land at 16700 Prairie Valley Road to establish a Baseball Legacy Complex.

The decision was made at a closed meeting of council Monday morning.

Council had been in negotiations with the B.C. Youth Baseball Legacy Complex about the possibility of buying the land.

A news release issued after the meeting said, “Council is responsible for ensuring that the interests of the taxpayers of Summerland are fully protected.”

In April of 2011 Summerland was approached with a request to purchase district-owned land to establish a baseball academy.

Council was interested because the eventual development of the baseball academy would bring long-term economic benefits to all of Summerland.

Council has recently determined that it does not have a sufficient level of comfort that this potential land sale and development project would come to fruition, said the news release.

“Council has therefore ceased negotiations with respect to the proposed sale of the lands.”

In January, the group also announced its intention to buy the old Glenfir School property. The site was to be used as a sports academy for high school students and was to open this September.

The B.C. Youth Baseball Legacy Complex announced it had signed a Letter of Intent to purchase the former Glenfir Independent School in Summerland to establish an international baseball and softball academy.

The announcement was made by Robin Harden, president of the BCYBLC, following seven years of work on the project.

The school is to be redeveloped as a co-educational college prep baseball/softball sport academy for students in grade 9 through 12.

Doors would open in the fall of this year.“The owners have maintained the facility and

grounds in pristine condition and the facility rounds out an important part of the overall BCYBLC vision for student athletes to move on to higher learning through sport,” said Harden.

‘We wanted flexibility in terms of classroom size, scheduling and baseball programming. Given the modern technology of the school and provided student laptops, even while teams are on the road they can maintain their studies.”

The existing sports field would be converted to a spring training type facility including outdoor baseball/softball practice. The BCYBLC advisory group has visited Glenfir and has been structuring baseball and softball programming.

Harden could not be reached for comment by press time.

Hairspray on stage Hairspray starts its Summerland run next Wednesday, with performances by Summerland Secondary School’s musical theatre students. Seen here in rehearsal are Emily Schatz as Tracy Turnblad and Tai Duong as Edna Turnblad. Performances run through Feb. 23. Tickets are on sale at the school office.

A former Summerland mayor has admitted to professional misconduct and had his ability to practise law suspended for one month.

Tom Johnston, a partner at a Summerland law firm, was also ordered to pay $6,448 in costs to the Law Society of B.C., according to a decision issued last week following a hearing in November.

He was sanctioned for his work on a civil matter he took on in 2008, which involved four unnamed clients whose case was before the B.C. Supreme Court in Penticton.

According to a decision written by

a disciplinary panel of the law society, Johnston didn’t follow his clients’ instructions and in doing so “denied his clients the trial they wanted.”

“His clients were left with no choice but to agree to a settlement they did not want.”

The decision went on to note, however, that “the result obtained at the end of the proceedings was arguably as good as could ever have been achieved at trial.”

The panel also pointed out there was “no suggestion that (Johnston) was acting in anything other than the best interests of his clients as he perceived them.

“However, based

on the evidence, he did clearly contradict his clients’ instruc-tions and at times obviously misled his clients.”

As a result, a lawyer for the law society suggested Johnston be suspended from practice for up to three months, while Johnston’s lawyer argued one month was appropriate.

Although the panel pointed that as a “mature” and “senior member of the bar,” Johnston ought to have known better, it noted he’s had “a significant level of involvement in his community, including civic politics and his church.”

Johnston also submitted 15 letters

of reference in his favour, including 10 from other lawyers and three from politicians.

Reached by phone in late January, Johnston said, “No doubt I made mistakes, so I’m not trying to downplay that at all,” but declined further comment.

Johnston served as mayor of Sum-merland from 2002 to 2005, and in 2008 made an unsuccess-ful bid for a seat on Penticton city council when he ran as part of a slate of candi-dates under the Oka-nagan Skaha Rate-payers Association banner.

In addition to his

work on criminal cases, Johnston has also represented cli-ents in high-profile civil actions, includ-ing Gary Leaman’s unsuccessful 2010 libel case against Mark Ziebarth relat-ed to a letter to the editor during the 2008 civic election.

Johnston also represented the

group that went to court in 2008 in a failed bid to block demolition of the old gym and auditorium at Penticton Second-ary School.

His firm, Johnston Goodrich Lawyers, will remain open during his suspen-sion, which runs to Feb. 28.

Montessori wins best private school award

The Summerland Montessori School was voted the Best Private School in the South Okanagan in Okanagan Life Magazine this December.

The school has been in existence since 1999, and is proud of the recognition it has received.

This is not the first time the school has been recognized in such a manner.

In 2009 the school received community

awards from the S u m m e r l a n d Chamber of Commerce for Business Excellence and Professional Service.

“The school’s open door policy, small classes and positive interaction with parents are a few of the secrets to our success,” said Cal Johnson, the Head of School.

The school’s daily French and physical education classes

were subject areas mentioned as major attractions to the school.

The school, which includes pre-kindergarten through Grade 7, caps class sizes at 18.

Current enrolment, including pre-school is 60.

Teaching staff totals seven, plus three more at pre-school, as well as an assistant.

VICTORIA – Cannon will roar across the Inner Harbour on the morning of Feb. 12 to mark the opening of the 2013 legislature session.

Lieutenant Governor Judith Guichon will inspect the troops and present her inaugural Throne Speech, setting out the B.C. Liberal government’s goals for the coming year.

This ritual will kick off a legislative session that is expected to run until March 14, where the official Parliamentary Calendar shows a three-week break for Easter. Debate is unlikely to resume in April, as the election campaign will be in full roar by then.

This means there will be a grand total of 19 sitting days to push through a budget and a raft of legislation. Here’s my unofficial preview.

The pre-election budget will be presented Feb. 19 by Finance Minister Michael de Jong. Premier Christy Clark has decreed that it must be balanced, and the government has made extra efforts to armour itself against what will likely be the loudest debate ahead.

First, de Jong held a pre-budget meeting of the government’s blue-chip forecast council in public. This provided a visual record of what happens every year, when the finance ministry solicits the same sort of independent advice as most

competent democracies, and bases its numbers on that. Then the finance ministry hired former Bank of Montreal chief economist Tim O’Neill, who will act as an unofficial version of the parliamentary budget officer in Ottawa. Now that we have simultaneous oversight of child welfare and the police, the next step is to extend it to finance bureaucrats.

Regardless of party, the government has to produce a three-year set of forecasts to

replace the current one. A lot of election energy will go into competing claims about who is better at predicting the future.

Another new law to be given high priority is one setting up senate elections, to be run in connection with the May 14 provincial vote. Alberta pioneered this, and Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s recent round of senate appointments included Calgary lawyer Doug Black, who won an Alberta senate election held last year. There was no one appointed to replace Gerry St. Germain, who bid an emotional adieu as a Conservative senator for B.C. last year. St. Germain was instrumental in uniting the splintered federal Conservatives, but he reached the mandatory retirement age of 75, having been appointed by Brian Mulroney in 1993 after

losing his seat as an MP.Why would this senate

reform be so urgent for the B.C. Liberals now? Well, turnout for the 2009 election fell to around 50 per cent, a record low for a provincial vote. If that downward trend is reversed this year, it will be in large part because people are still mad enough about the harmonized sales tax and a range of other issues to get off the couch and kick some B.C. Liberal butt.

Electing senators remains a

popular notion, especially with older, conservative-minded voters in B.C. who identified with the Reform Party. The first-ever senate election looks like the best available shot at boosting turnout among people who are not likely to vote NDP, and who may also be disengaged from provincial politics. And then there is the provincial sales tax bill. Another kick in the slats for the movie business, for one, and don’t hold your breath for NDP leader Adrian Dix to produce a solution in the wake of his recent trip to Tinsel Town. The performance of the governing party and the opposition will be scrutinized as never before.

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

While the long, snow-laden winter probably has some people happy, such as those who monitor the water table and those who run winter sports en t e rp r i s e s . But all things con s i d e red , the rest of us have had enough.

B a r e ground, spring flowers and warm weather can’t come fast enough for most Summerlanders, who have struggled to shovel snow and chip ice away from sidewalks and driveways. Snow removal equipment, including that owned by the public, has had a real workout this year.

Students at Summerland Secondary School have been hard at work on Hairspray, a musical with plenty of dance numbers.

T h e p r o d u c t i o n will be staged this month.

Any theatrical production is a significant undertaking.

A large cast production such as this one is even more challenging for all involved.

The production will be enjoyed by locals and visitors.

park closerSummerland’s future

industrial park is one step closer following a vote at last week’s municipal council meeting.

Municipal staff was authorized to amend the Official Community Plan to change the designation of 10 parcels totaling 7.36 hectares on the west side of Bentley Road from Agricultural to Light Industrial.

The move follows years of discussion and planning for an industrial location to attract investment, create jobs and increase the tax base for Summerland.

In 2011 the municipality began the process to have the properties excluded from the Agricultural Land Reserve. In November of that year the Agricultural Land Commission told the municipality that the application would be permitted if certain requirements were met.

Council authorized staff to prepare an amendment to the Official Community Plan to address policy for light industrial.

The Development Services Department completed a background report on the industrial park proposal in July.

The report included feedback from stakeholders and the public. Concerns included aesthetics, compatibility between land uses, drainage, economics, the environment, transition to industrial use and utilities.

Design guidelines will be established to address concerns about the appearance of the industrial area, which is located at the northern entrance to the community.

Fences and planted buffer areas, as well as design guidelines, would address concerns about compatibility with nearby agricultural properties.

The plan takes into account the need to balance agriculture, and aesthetics on one hand with job creation and investment on the other.

The matter comes back to council March 11.

Been there—done thatFeb. 11 is our first Family Day in B.C. The holiday was originally created to give people time to spend with their families. This photo of the Monro family, taken in 1909, portrays a good example of family togetherness. The large house on the hill behind them was in the process of being constructed and the family (mom, dad and six kids) lived in a cosy tenthouse in the meantime. At the Monro’s, it was always Family Day. Enjoy your time with your family and take lots of pictures. Today’s snapshots are tomorrow’s archives.

Electoral boundary change disasterDear Editor:Not a day goes

by when western Canadians don’t realize, again, they are getting the shaft from the eastern establishment.

B.C.’s constituent boundaries must parallel or follow the least line of resistance of the natural obstacles, go around or over the summits of mountains that lie in their path and support the towns, cities and municipalities that have been built over the past 100 years.

It is too late to

change or turn back the clock.

The one major change required is putting Osoyoos and Oliver back into the Penticton riding.

R e m o v i n g Summerland would be a major disaster.

Our river valleys and mountain ranges determine, how, why and where we must build our roads, highways and railways. Since the early days of t r a n s p o r t a t i o n and movement, before the arrival of the railways, the sternwheelers, ships,

like the SS Sicamous and Moyie plied our rivers.

The Ottawa gang, it seems, could not care less about where our boundaries must be. During the previous constituency changes three faceless Liberal bureaucrats from Ottawa played a significant role in removing Osoyoos and Oliver from the riding, then known as Okanagan Similkameen Merritt. Historically, Osoyoos and Oliver had been as conservative as apple pie since B.C.’s boundary lines were

first drawn. B.C. residents

should prepare themselves for a major boundary change.

Should the NDP win the next election, there is a very good chance the conservative Peace River District will change to Alberta territory. For far too many years the Peace folks have been dissatisfied with the way things are done in Victoria. It is fair to say the Peace country is just as disappointed with Victoria as they are with Ottawa.

Soon after becoming premier, W.A.C. Bennett realized the possibility of the Peace someday leaving BC. W.A.C. and son Bill were the only premiers who understood the needs and requirements of the Interior. That was the principal reason why he expanded the Pacific Great Eastern Railway (PGE) to extend its rails all the way into the Peace district. Today, the Peace folks are more than disappointed over another dam being built in their

back yard to satisfy the needs of B.C. Hydro customers on the Coast. Peace farmers need the Peace River water as much as the Coast and Lower Mainland folks require more electrical power. B. C. wastes more hydro electric power potential than the power it generates. How about better management of our resource?

On a per capita basis, the Peace folks pay far more in taxes and royalties than any other region to fund the freeloaders

in Victoria and the Lower Mainland. The next major initiative for the Coast and Island is a new ferry fleet. Most of the money to fund such a project will come from Peace taxpayers, yet very few of those folks will ever ride on a B.C. ferry. 

Now that the South Okanagan may be losing MP Dan Albas, I hope he has the time to read this letter and report the seriousness of the situation to the Ottawa establishment.

Thanks for keeping sidewalks clear this winterDear Editor:Many, many

thanks to all the residents who are very conscientious

about clearing snow from the public sidewalks adjacent to their properties.

Some have even

been so kind as to use de-icer as well.

This is much appreciated by all of the morning dog

walkers and general pedestrian traffic.

Also, three cheers for our snowplow drivers, and all those

who help to keep our roads safe.

They have been putting in many long hours and facing

difficult conditions during this challenging winter.

I think lots of communities are not

nearly as lucky as we are.

Dear Editor:With the Sum-

merland Pee Wee House Jets this year, the head coach has chosen to not only teach kids hockey skills and sports-manship, but to also develop leadership skills and a sense of community pride. The kids have been involved in helping with a specific cause or awareness of an issue each month for

the 2012/2013 hock-ey season. In Octo-ber the team wanted to raise awareness about breast cancer and an Anti-bullying campaign by adorn-ing the players sticks with pink tape and the goalies had pink tape on their pads and gloves.

In November, the coaches grew their “Movember” mous-taches and during the Nov. 10 game

versus South Oka-nagan in Oliver, both teams had drawn on moustaches to sup-port Movember and men’s cancer issues. Also for every goal scored by the team in “Movember”, the head coach pledged the team to donate $2 to cancer awareness.

December’s cause was to raise aware-ness and collect dona-tions for the Sum-merland Food Bank.

On Dec 8, in front of the Summerland IGA and Summer-land Nester’s store, members of the team encouraged patrons to pick up some extra items for the Sum-merland Food bank. In only four hours they received enough items to completely fill a pickup truck and SUV. In January, the SOWINS Warm and Fuzzies drive through Valley First

Cherry Lane Insur-ance branch, was their next cause.

The team play-ers and families were requested to go through closets and drawers in order to donate or collect extra coats, sweaters or sweatshirts. The team managed to col-lect five large bags full of clothing!

On Saturday, Jan. 26 a few of the team players deliv-

ered their donations to the VFIS Cherry Lane branch. Febru-ary will bring aware-ness for Heart and Stroke month. The kids will be encour-aged to do at least 30 minutes of exer-cise every day for the month of February and cut at least one “bad” food choice out of their diet for the entire month – thank goodness it’s a short month. This has been

a very rewarding experience (for both kids and parents) as the kids are develop-ing into strong com-munity and school leaders. Not only are they learning a sport and developing hock-ey skills, but they are also learning  import-ant life skills and how to be commun-ity spirited.

Youthful Crime

We have all heard that today's children are "growing up" far faster than in generations past. Societal and technological advances have accelerated the rate that our children learn. They have also lowered the age our children get exposed to many different influences. A recent study has shown that the most likely time for Canadian Offenders to commit a robbery is 17 years old. Before and after that age it is less likely for a person to be involved in that crime. I think that most people would be shocked to see that statistic.Unfortunately, we have to deal with the bad side of "growing up" early along with the good things that it brings. Obviously the vast majority of young adults do not choose this path, however it would seem that those who commit criminal acts are doing so very early in their young adult lives.

Dear Editor:Recycling isn’t just for the environment

these days.  Ed Fehr continues to clean up the neighbourhood of bottles and cardboard and has generously given the proceeds to charity enabling kids to go to camp.

As the news has spread, several others have also contributed to the cause.   Thanks to additional donors, Vern, Phil at Northern Fireplace, Doreen, and the Summerland Shell Employees saving the recyclables, Ed picks up their donations and forwards the proceeds to charity.

This year the goal is to see more kids attend summer camp because of everyone’s contributions.

Ed can be reached at 250-494-8074 if you would like to add to the contributions.

Police rePortoutstanding warrants

Police arrested a driver who was entering Summerland on Highway 97 near Jones Flat Road the evening of Jan. 22. He had five outstanding warrants, including a couple of property charges related to Summerland inci-dents. Pickup recovered

On Jan 25 Summerland RCMP recovered a vehicle stolen in Penticton the day before. The GMC pickup was found in the 13000 block of Victoria Road North. Police are continuing investigation.Driving ban

A young Kelowna man broke a glass door at the A&W restaurant on Rosedale Avenue in Summerland the afternoon of Jan. 22. He had been arguing with staff and broke the door on his way out. Police arrested him and he facing a charge of mischief.

Chipper proceedsThanks to the generosity of the residents of Summerland the Fire Department raised $1560.55 for the Summerland Secondary School Grads through the Christmas tree chipping fundraiser. Seen in the back row are firefighters Merv Minty, Dale Hooper, Russ Sieben, Allana Gould and Rob Robinson. In the front row are students Miriam Bambey, Keanna Walsh, Amanda West, Thomas Wiens and Connie Bambey.

He was released on parole in January and had been serving a three-year, eight-month sentence on two convictions for possession of drugs for the purpose of trafficking and a weapons related offence.

“Given that Hard-enstine is known as a violent criminal, there were support resources deployed

like the police ser-vice dog and emer-gency response team to ensure we were able to conduct a safe arrest of the individ-ual and minimize and mitigate any risk to the public and the officers,” said Mosk-aluk.

Moskaluk added several detachments in the South East District were act-ively investigating information being received since the

issuing of the war-rant for Hardenstine, as well as pursuing already known infor-mation about areas that he would fre-quent.

Given Harden-stine’s known associ-ations, Moskaluk said RCMP believed in all likelihood the wanted man would be found in a South Okanagan community or in the southwest Kootenay-Boundary area.

Q Your hy-gienist rec-ommended

that I come in every 3 months for cleaning but I told her my in-surance only pays once a year, why do you rec-ommend something that is not covered?

Bill

AThis is a great question Bill. Dental insurance is a benefit that you and/or your employer

pay into and the insurance company in turn covers some dental services for you. The insurance companies offer varying levels of coverage and, as with most things, you get what you (or your employer) pay for. We prefer to base our recommendations on your unique situation, rather than on your insurance company’s generic coverage.

When I recommend treatment for my patients, it is on a patient by patient basis. I look at each person’s dental needs and come up with an individual plan for them. This is true for dental cleanings as well. Some of our patients see our hygienists every 3 months, others we recommend only every 6 months. We recommend how often you come based on your medical health, the health of your gums and the amount of bone around your teeth. For example, some of our patients have diabetes and we recommend they come every 3 months.

Often dental insurance plans will cover the cleanings you need, but limit how often you can be seen by the dentist. In our office, our hygienists often see patients for maintenance visits that do not include a dental exam. This ensures the bone, gums and overall health of our patients remains great!

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!

John Anthony Light, EPC. Qualifies as a member of “Elder Planning Counselor” program

TORONTO, ON - A nationally recognized designation, was conferred on John Anthony Light after successfully completing an intense and rigorous test of

knowledge regarding current seniors issues. The “Canadian Initiative for Elder Planning Studies” (CIEPS) course was established as a standard of service to seniors for all professionals and business people in providing seniors with high quality services and products that best suit their lives and circumstances. The “Elder Planning Counselor” (EPC) designation will immediately help seniors identify the business people and professionals who have a special interest and proficiency in dealing with them and their needs.

“Studies show that seniors want advisors who understand their life issues, alternatives and concerns, which respect their circumstances and experiences and can accommodate their physical and health needs. The EPC is the Canadian professional development standard for elder education,” says Thomas Miller, President of CIEPS.

Achieving this designation is a distinguished career milestone, attained only by those who have demonstrated proficiency in all relevant programs about seniors issues, including aging, health issues, financial planning considerations, long term care as well as end of life issues. This makes the “EPC” graduate a valued counselor to seniors, regardless of the service or product they provide.

The Elder Planning Counselor educational program has been designed by Canadians for Canadian Professionals.

Award finalists announcedAs we mentioned

in this column on Jan. 3, both the awards for the 75th Business and Community Awards Gala and the process for nominations has changed consider-ably from previous years.

Change is always a risk and the Sum-merland Chamber of Commerce Board faced the question of whether the business and wider commun-ity would embrace the changes to the awards and continue to participate in the process.

Summerland still outof Penticton riding

The Federal Electoral Boundaries Commission for B.C. said thanks but no thanks to S u m m e r l a n d ’ s submission about redistribution of federal electoral boundaries.

Mayor Janice Perrino included a letter from Susan Evoy, secretary for the commission, in her mayor’s report at the last evening council meeting.

The letter thanks the municipality for participating and taking the time to make a presentation and says public input was invaluable in redrawing the province’s federal electoral map.

The commission’s report was tabled in the House of Commons last week, with Summerland still separated from Penticton in the

redrawn districts.The letter explained

the Commission has configured a new electoral district named Central Okanagan-S i m i l k a m e e n -Nicola that contains S u m m e r l a n d , Keremeos, Princeton and adjacent areas. This electoral district includes Peachland, West Kelowna, and a portion of the City of Kelowna south of Harvey Avenue and adjacent to Okanagan Lake.

It also includes Merritt, Logan Lake and adjacent areas in its northern region.

“The Commission had received submissions to place Summerland in the same electoral district as Penticton.

This was deemed unfeasible because it would have resulted in an electoral district with a population

variance well above the electoral quota,” said the letter.

Members of Parliament now have the opportunity to review the report and make any objections known to the Commission.

The Commission will consider these objections and decide whether to modify any boundaries or district names. The Commission expects to complete its final report by early summer 2013.

The electoral quota on which the new ridings are based is 104,763 people.

In the Southern Interior the new ridings vary from that by as much as 15 per cent.

Perrino thinks an exception should also be made to keep Summerland connected to Penticton.

Celebrate BC’s � rst Family Day Monday Feb 11

Eat together■ Family Day is the ideal time to bring your family ‘back to the table’. Given the increasingly busy sched-ule of every member of the family, eating together has been a casualty of our hectic days. Whether you’re together in your home, on a mini-vaca-tion or enjoying a local restaurant, there are numerous bene� ts to eating together. Sharing a table means sharing your day, sharing your undivided attention and sharing conversation. It is a chance to give extra attention to your children and teens. Family meals foster warmth, security and love, as well as a sense of belonging. � e way that you act at the table becomes a model for your children. � ey learn from your appreciation of the meal and your social skills - especially when outside the home. Table manners are social skills and leading by example makes it easier for parents to teach without lecturing. Using family meals as a way to sample new menus can be both fun and a great learning experience. By giving family members input and the opportunity to choose the menu, it becomes an ideal way to expand their horizons on a wider range of foods and cultures. It also can lead to healthier choices as well as developing an open mind for experiencing new things. A way to get more out of a family meal is to engage the family in menu selection, shopping and preparation. You can begin this at a very young age giving children age-appropriate tasks like stirring ingredients, washing vegetables, tearing lettuce and setting the table. As your children grow they can take on more key respon-sibilities and the pride that comes with preparing a special family meal. � is teaches your children cooking skills, nutrition and appreciation for the e� ort of meal

preparation. It can also provide a great source of ac-complishment and sense of self-su� ciency.

Plan to make your Family Day special by including all those who make up your family.

Pay tribute by making your meal special and so memorable you’ll want to ensure you

do it more often.

■ � ere is no better province to explore than British Columbia and no better family bonding experience than sharing the thrill of a new discovery or experience. Day trips can create remarkable family memories. � ey o� er a wonderful way to spend time together and learn more about where you live. � e variety of experiences available to families is dif-ferent in each region of this spectacular province - you might decide to explore close to home or venture to one of the other regions in B.C. over the Family Day weekend. Whether taking SkyTrain, BC Ferries, driving, or hopping a � ight, there are many ways to invest in a day of discov-ery. Travel is just one aspect. To maximize the experience families should involve everyone in the planning. By planning ahead you and your whole family can expe-rience a worthwhile outing and make every aspect fun. Create a list of activities or venues and assign a rough budget for each. Allow family members to weigh in on their preferences and discuss what they would like to see, do or learn at each. You might decide to stay in a hotel and be a tourist in your own hometown. Kids or youth can map out the sites and activities, creating a family agenda including selecting the points of interest, lunch and shopping as well as en-joying the amenities your

hotel might o� er. It’s the perfect way to free up everyone from everyday tasks and roles. Researching history, attractions, museums, parks and markets can teach valuable lessons and it helps children to plan within a budget. � is way they are part of making important decisions, appreciate both the e� ort and cost of outings and will be more enthused about an agenda they helped develop. Be sure to capture your family time by taking photos, saving literature or purchasing a memento. � is can lead to great family discussions about what each individual enjoyed or learned and starts you planning for future family explorations.

Summerland Review Thursday, February 7, 2013 www.summerlandreview.com 13

First o� cial Family Day for B.C.� is year British Columbians will celebrate our � rst o� cial holiday dedicated to families – B.C. Family Day.We all know B.C. is an incredible place to live – and setting aside a day for families to spend together is an important way we can help keep them strong. It’s also the ideal time get out and discover some of the incredible activities B.C. has to o� er.

Whether it’s a special evening out at your favourite local bistro, a visit to your local recreation centre, art gallery or museum, a day of browsing the shops, or maybe getting outdoors and enjoying some winter sport – our province is blessed with countless opportunities to spend quality time together.

Share together■ Bringing together your extended family can create a highly memorable and valuable life event. � ey say “it takes a village to raise a child” and many would agree especially in today’s world of working parents and latch-key kids. � e support, experience and interest of your extended family can have a signi� cant impact on your immediate family. Regardless of your de� ni-tion of ‘extended’ family, bringing together those with whom you share history with can have last-ing bene� ts not just for you and your children but for those you invite to share your day.It is common in today’s world to have older children in nuclear families reach their teens before meeting extended family members. Geographi-cal isolation is common for middle-class families who move based on occupational opportunities while family branches retain their independence.Family Day is the ideal occasion to hold family reunions to re-establish and integrate a stronger family connection. � is allows your children to connect with extended family members and to share a better sense of their heritage and belonging. Don’t forget to include senior members of your family. Family reunions and relation-ships inspire seniors to stay active and pursue their well-being. Studies have found seniors feel revitalized when they spend time with families. Your children will bene� t from hearing their oral history and that’s an inspiring experience that won’t always be available to them. Another way to celebrate Family Day is to gather your extended family and friends around something you care about. It might be a shore clean-up, a family walk or a garage sale. You might volunteer at a foodbank. Food is often central to gatherings and with everyone contributing to a family meal afterwards, it becomes a great way to share B.C.’s � rst Family Day.

Create together■ One of my favourite memories was creating an enormous piñata in prepa-ration for a multi-family holiday. We blew up a huge bouncy ball and covered it with papier mache. Our children and those of our friends were young so after my young sons painted the ball white, I drew a score of cartoon characters, shapes and funny animals all around it. Filled with age-appropri-ate, small toys, puzzles and treats, the big white ball became a major activity for everyone in our three-family group. Every age took turns colouring in the shapes through-out the day, knowing when it was completed the ball would be strung up. � e anticipation and excite-ment was heightened because the reward came with activity and was not immediate. Creating something as a family can mark an important time in your family history. It captures the age and ability of your children, your interests and a point in time. By working together on a project your family can develop new skills, collabo-rate on something truly memorable and enjoy what each family member brings to the endeavor. � ink about all the things a family could

create together – a family album com-plete with stories, mementos and funny or poignant memories. Your family might be old enough to handle some-thing more ambitious like preparing a garden, building a dog house or design-ing and painting a family recreation area in your home. Technology puts an amazing array of tools in the hands of today’s families.

You can plan, write, � lm and edit a movie with your everyday computer and smartphone tech-nology and software. Even more fun is sharing your family creation with friends around the world.You might even suggest a � lm festival by inviting families to create their own � lm and have a “popcorn premiere” to show them all. Searching online will

uncover an astounding number of crafts and projects you could tackle as a fam-ily. It can be as simple as building and � ying a kite. Or you may look for some-thing you can recycle or re-purpose into a creative new item – whether a work of art or function. It’s bound to make your family members proud environment stewards as well as treasuring your time and project as a family.

■ � ere is nothing like the fun and innocence of childhood. Whether it’s a game of kick-the-can with the neigh-bourhood children or building a tree fort in the backyard, some of our best memories are playful.Board games are a great indoor activity, and Fam-ily Day is a great time to dig out some of your old favourites like Monopoly and Clue, and maybe try out a few new ones that are geared towards family fun. Your local toy store will have a wide range of options, along with other family-friendly entertain-

ment such as puzzles and books. Set up a

card table, get your

favourite puzzle out and spend hours putting together the pieces. Finishing a complicated puzzle will also give your kids a sense of accomplishment.

If you’re looking for something a bit more high-tech, your game console or computer is a good place to start. Video games have come a long way from the classic Super Mario and Donkey Kong, and you may dis-

cover that your kids have a much larger technical knowledge than you do. � ey might beat you at Wii Sports but it will make for a great story!Getting outside for a game of tag or basketball will check o� two things on your list: play and exercise. Taking a trip to a local playground or � eld will give you hours of entertainment for a low cost. Pack a picnic as well for an entire day of fun. Practicing your batting or pitching will also get you ready for the upcoming sports seasons, or maybe compete to see who can run the fastest to the swings.� is year, Family Day is a time to make

memories, spend time together and maybe learn a thing or two. What-ever the weather is like outside, you have plenty of options for having fun at all ages.

■ Try something new this Family Day. It might be as simple as agreeing that everyone observe a no-technology or TV day. If you � nd your gatherings often involve all the adults sitting around visiting while the youngsters play among themselves and the teens segregate away from both you and the little ones, you’re probably not alone. A family gathering can be a wonderful opportunity for family to hear the latest on jobs, trips, hobbies and health, but if you � nd your gatherings following the same tedious patterns where one or two family members dominate with the same old stories, this is the year to change it up. Consider adding new experiences to the plans, and making a new and fun tradi-tion out of them. Here are some ideas to get started:

Get out and enjoy our beautiful out-doors – no matter what your weather. If you live in a snowy region of B.C., orga-nize a hayride, snowshoe trek, sledding time or ice skating at a community rink. If you don’t have snow in your area, you can travel to � nd it or consider planning a bike ride, a hike or even hitting a mini-golf course or a driving range. � e idea is to bring everyone together in a family activity you’ve never done before.

Plan a meal away from the house – Instead of cooking for the gathering, plan a formal brunch or dinner at a new restaurant. Not only do you experience

a new menu together but everyone in your group can sit together and enjoy the meal. B.C. has a widely diverse cultural make up and ethnic restaurants are part of that.

Make your Family Day gathering a retreat for all – consider getting your family out of the house and turn your gathering into a festive retreat. Many ven-ues have activities for all ages to enjoy, from winter outdoor fun to refreshing spa services. � ink of how much fun it would be for your whole family group to take a yoga class together.

Host a family talent show – Everyone has a special talent in your family, so encourage them to bring their talent to your gathering. If you’re really ambitious set up an area to be used as a stage and arrange chairs for audience members. Many living rooms have dimmer switches so play with lighting and lamps so the performance area is in the spotlight. You might want to rent a popcorn machine or ask family members to bring along some treats and snacks. By bringing new activities to your family gathering this year, you’ll be creating many new memories to share in the future, as well as making the event much more enjoyable.

FAMILY DAY MONDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 2013

This holiday celebrate the importance of families and family life. Start some tradition that can take place the

second Monday in February every year.

Where did Family Day come from?Between May 8 and May 22, 2012, British Columbians were asked to provide input into whether they prefer the second or third Monday in February for the observation of the new Family Day statutory holiday. After citizens had their say, it was announced that B.C.’s Family Day will take place on the second Monday in February each year, beginning in 2013. Premier Christy Clark said, “Having our own unique day in B.C. creates distinctive opportunities for families and local businesses. British Columbians will be able to enjoy all kinds of local attractions with fewer lineups and less out-of-town tra� c.”

■ If you ask any adult about some of their favourite memories of childhood, you will invariably hear something related to food. Whether it’s baking with Grandma or grilling hamburgers for a cookout with Dad, cooking is always an important part of growing up.Family Day is a great time to dig out

those family cookbooks and try a recipe handed down by the older generation. Your mom’s famous meatloaf or your uncle’s recipe for spinach

dip are great things to try with family members of

all ages.Maybe you’re looking to make some-thing you’ve never made before, or perhaps you want to try out a new cuisine. Hitting the library or the web will give you ideas for new recipes, whether it’s trying to duplicate your favourite takeout pizza or make an authentic spicy Indian dish. Let each member of the family choose a recipe that they want to try, whether it’s for breakfast, lunch, dinner or a snack. That way everyone gets involved and has their say in what the family eats. Maybe you’ll find a new favourite food or discover that your child is aiming to become the next Mario Batali or Julia Child.Your local grocery store is sure to have a wide selection of ingredients that you may never have tasted be-fore. Wandering the aisles may even spark your imagination.Learning about what goes into a dish will set your family on the road to healthy eating. Taking a few minutes to read the labels on a food item will demonstrate how to make healthy choices and help your children in the future. Finding healthy alternatives to not-so-healthy foods can be a fun experiment, and may end up being tastier than the original food. Many stores will have sections devoted to healthier options, whether they’re gluten-free or just lower in calories.

■ Having a day o� from school doesn’t mean learn-ing stops for the day. � ere are plenty of educational things you can do in British Columbia, whether in your own home or outside.How about starting with a trip to your local library? It will hold plenty of books on any topic that you can imagine. Maybe a book of science experiments or a historical novel set in the early days of Canada will stoke your imagination. Let the kids each pick out a book to take home with them and start a lifetime love of reading. Your local bookstore will also hold a variety of options if your child can’t bear to part with his or her new favourite book.A local historical attraction is also a great place to pay a visit. Whether it’s China-town or Steveston � shing village, there is a ton of history right in your own back-yard. Most places will have a museum or heritage building around that can serve as a jumping-o� point for learning more about the city where you live.Learning can be more than just reading though. Pull out the laptop and get your kids to type out an email to a family member or friend outside of B.C. Perhaps they can even tell the person about what they learned at the museum or library!Keeping a journal is also a great way to practice writing and literacy skills. Even if it’s not a daily occurrence, sitting down in the evening to write about the events of the day or week can get kids thinking and practicing their handwriting.

(NC)—The drive to choose the ultimate romantic gift is so strong that many people just cave in and buy something safe like choco-lates, � owers, perfume or jewelry. This year, why not think outside the usual gift box and make it more memorable? Here are some tricks that are guaranteed to score points in your relationship and warm the heart of your signi� cant other:Personalize itThey worked for Cleopatra and Juliet; Casanova and Romeo. From a simple “Love you always and forever,” to romantic poetry; to a secret expression only he or she would understand, adding a personalized message to your gift will make it more special and certainly more memorable.Get creative with presentation

Dress up for dinner at home - tuxedo for him, evening gown for her. Hire a pianist to play during a romantic dinner at home, or have dinner-for-two prepared by the best chef in town. If you’re keen on expressing your love in a really big and creative way, why not hire a marching band and have them play a romantic song for your sweetheart? If jewelry is what you plan to give this year, try placing an engagement ring in a cham-pagne glass, a bracelet or watch under a pillow, or a necklace at the edge of a candlelit bathtub � lled with bubbles.Skip the usual gift and go for something completely different

If you simply can’t afford fancy jewelry or helicopter tours of the city, you can still be romantic while at the same time helping make the world a better place. Purchase a gift in your sweet-heart’s name through a non-pro� t organization, like Christian Children’s Fund of Canada (www.ccfcanada.ca) and help break the cycle of poverty for millions of people around the world. With gifts that start at just $10, you can be romantic and original without breaking the bank.

Drama students at Summerland Sec-ondary School will perform Hairspray,

a musical which addresses prejudices.

The play is about an overweight teen

who seeks a role on a television dance show.

“This is a really fun show,” said drama teacher Heather Ayris.

“It has a really good message wrapped in a comedic story.”

She said the mes-sage of the story, about dealing with prejudices, is an important one.

“It’s so true with the prejudices we still have and the bullying which goes on,” she said.

Hairspray is a change from last year’s production of Phantom of the Opera, a dark and emotional story.

After staging that production, Ayris wanted something which would be sig-nificantly different for this year’s pro-duction.

“We needed more energy, more fun and more movement for the group,” she said.

While Phantom featured complex singing roles, Hair-spray has been chal-lenging because of the numerous dance numbers.

“I was waiting for the right students who could pull it off,” she said.

Ayris said the students in the pro-duction have had to work hard to prepare for the show.

Hairspray opens on Wednesday, Feb. 13 at 7 p.m.

Additional per-formances are Thurs-day, Feb. 14, at 7 p.m.; Friday, Feb. 15 at 7 p.m.; Saturday, Feb. 16 at 7 p.m.; Wednes-day, Feb. 20 at 7 p.m.; Thursday, Feb. 21 at 7 p.m.; Friday, Feb. 22 at 7 p.m. and Satur-day, Feb. 23 at 7 p.m.

Tickets are on sale now at the Sum-merland Secondary School office.

The Breakfast Club for Learning at Giant’s Head Elementary School will undergo a kitchen renovation in order to deal with the increasing number of students who use the program.

The expansion is necessary since the program now feeds between 60 and 70 students each day.

The breakfast club started 12 years ago and was initially supported by the Summerland Asset Development Initiative.

It is now supported by service groups, businesses and individuals.

The program offers a nutritious breakfast for any student at the school.

“Not one child should go without breakfast,” said coordinator Valerie

Wright.She added that

those who start the day with a well-balanced breakfast have more energy and enthusiasm during the rest of the day.

In addition, Wright said volunteers also offer friendship and a smile to let children know they are cared for.

“This universal targeted program is more than just ensuring children have a nutritional start to their day. It is also an opportunity for children to interact with caring adults in the community, a way to bridge the generations and offer a safe place for children to be before school,” she said.

For some of the students, the breakfast club is also a time to be with friends before the school day begins.

At the far left, Greg Nixon, a high school volunteer, pours water for the students in the program. Above, volunteer Vivian Gagnon serves breakfast to Alyssa Mullin, a Grade 4 student. At the bottom left, kindergarten student Kaia Quinton, left, Grade 3 student Kenya Van Delft and Grade 1 student Cadence Messier finish their meal before school begins.

The team has players from Summerland to West Kelowna.

Programbuildsplayers

A tough economy and a wide array of sport choices have been two major factors that have caused the number of players in minor hockey to decline over the last few years.

The Summerland Montessori School’s Hockey Development program is helping to bring players into the system at various age levels.

The program is run by Cal Johnson who also coaches the local Midget Rep team.

Johnson has

D e v e l o p m e n t 1 Coaching certification and years of experience coaching, running hockey schools and hockey skills camps.

In the Montessori program the children learn the basic skills of hockey in a non-threatening environment, he said.

The goal is to instill a love for the game so the players want to pursue hockey in the local minor hockey system.

The players are able to work on the skills that they may have missed out on practicing in the local system, if they are late entrants to the game.

Through the SMS Skill Development Program, the players have an opportunity to catch up to their peers and are less intimidated joining a team of players with a few more years of experience, said Johnson, who is also head of Summerland Montessori School.

He said the program has led to 11 players joining hockey that might not have otherwise done so.

“We have also put three goaltenders into the system, which has been a position where we have been short of players at some levels,” Johnson said.

The players get a chance to try out all the positions and some have gravitated toward goaltending.

“We have even had some players make it to the Rep level, which is great to see.”

Tip of the week Because of dust, lint, hairs from brooms

and other debris on the ice, the stone should be cleaned before every delivery. Debris on the ice can cause the stone to change its directional path.

Scoreboard

Photo by Carla McLeodLadies BonspielThe recent Summerland Curling Club Ladies Bonspiel saw entries from all over the Okanagan. Here are Kristi Leardo and Ellen Clay sweeping.

A growing number of students have been taking up badminton over the past year, now that Summerland has a youth badminton program in place.

“We’re really starting to promote the sport for the younger players,” said Audie Yastremski, president of the Summerland Badminton Club.

The club attracts players of all ages and all skill levels, including one who

has competed internationally.

Several years ago, Henry Paynter won the England Open competition, marking the first time a Canadian has won at that level.

Yastremski said the players at the club range from the competitive to the casual beginners.

“It’s a sport you can play all your life and you can play at any level you want,” he said.

There are around

70 members in the badminton club. The majority play from October to March, but a growing number now play year-round.

Novice players compete on Sundays, on Monday and Friday afternoons and Monday and Wednesday evenings. Intermediate players also compete on Tuesdays.

Advanced players meet on Tuesday and Thursday evenings and Sunday mornings.

“I am very proud of being named a Race 101 ambassador”, said Cornett-Ching.

Barney AytonMay 3,1928 ~ January 27, 2013

The family is sad to announce the passing of Barney Ayton aka (Harry Ernest Laverne Ayton). He passed away peacefully in his sleep, at his home in Summerland, BC on January 27th, 2013 at the age of 84 years. He is remembered by his wife Pamela Anne Ayton, and one daughter Nancy Jacqueline Ayton “Jaki” of Fanny Bay, BC, his best friend and brother in law Mike Linley (Colleen) of Peachland, BC. Barney was sadly predeceased by his 3 brothers Bert, Bill, Ray “Charlie”. Dad was a rock and a calming steadfast infl uence on everyone he knew and in every situation. He was born in Wellington, Ontario and grew up farming. He moved to Toronto when he was 15 years old and met Pamela Ann Linley (the love of his life) soon afterward. They married in 1949 and moved out to Victoria with family soon after. Dad worked for the T Eaton Co for 37 years working up to manager of their warehouse facility. He really enjoyed his job and all his co-workers, but was happy to retire and move to Summerland in 1993. Mom and Dad loved living in Summerland. They loved the climate, the views but especially all the warm caring, friendly people. Dad was active in the Seniors Center, the Legion and the Anglican Church. He was also extremely grateful to the staff at the Good Samaritan’s Village by the Station for taking such great care of Mom these last couple of years. A Memorial service was held on February 1, 2013 at 10:00 am with Reverend Rick Paulin offi ciating from St. Stephen’s Anglican Church, Summerland, British Columbia, to be followed by internment in the Garden of Remembrance in April 2013. Tributes in Barney’s name may be made to the charity of your choice. “Keep calm and carry on” could be Dad’s motto for life. He will be truly missed. Condolences may be directed to the family through providencefuneralhomes.com.

Quest receives $6,000 gaming grantQuest Society

for Hearing Enhancement in Summerland has received $6,000 in Community Gaming Grants from the B.C. government.

It was one of three Penticton and Sum-merland area organ-

izations to share a total of $41,000.

The Penticton and District Society for Community Living received $25,000.

The Knights of Columbus #3127 in Penticton received $10,000.

Across British Col-

umbia, 117 recipients are sharing $4,813,400 in the latest round of grants.

“I understand the importance of funding for a com-munity organiza-tion’s budget, and I am glad to see these dedicated groups

benefiting from these grants,” said Pentic-ton MLA Bill Barisoff in announcing the grants.

Community Gam-ing Grants allow non-profit organizations to apply for provin-cial gaming revenues.

Last fiscal year, in

2011/12, the B.C. gov-ernment distributed a total of $135 million in gaming grants for eligible community programs and servi-ces. More than 5,300 community groups benefited from fund-ing during 2011/12.

Art in fibreA Fibre Art Workshop was held at the Summerland Art Gallery on Saturday, taught by artist in residence Brandy Lynn Maslowski. Pictured here, learning to create a landscape out of fabric and different embellishments, are from left, Sandra Reeve, Annie Smirmaul, Elaine Diggle, Alice Pallett, Linda Beaven and Marlene Charles.  Maslowski expressed appreciation for the fact that the Summerland Art Gallery holds a wonderful array of classes in different mediums, thus recognizing the many different forms of art.

Celebration of FantasyThe first opening at the Summerland Art Gallery this year featured the whimsical acrylic and oil fantasy paintings of Robert Noakes. An opening reception for An Exploration of Fantasy was held at the gallery last Thursday and the show runs until March 16.

continued from page 3Johnson said the

parents are a close-knit community, often stop-ping for coffee when dropping their children off at school, and taking part in outside activities together.

The school emphasiz-es physical education, with programs such as skating, Red Cross swimming lessons and

hockey development.“As a staff our goal

every September is to improve on what we did the previous year. Our dynamic and enthusiastic teachers take this challenge ser-iously and ultimately deliver,” states Johnson.

“We look forward to being an option for families in the valley for years to come.”
