A proposed 21 per cent increase in the cost of solid waste collection is not sitting too well with the Town of Oliver.

Although staff has recommended that a new fi ve-year contract be awarded to BFI Canada Inc., it’s going to cost an extra 10 per cent this year and 10 per cent next year.

That’s why Council deferred the matter and asked Mu-nicipal Manager Tom Szalay to negotiate the costs with BFI based on the Town’s concerns.

At a January 10 meeting, Szalay said BFI (formerly Waste Services and OV Waste) was shortlisted from seven pro-posals. BFI was the lowest bidder, with the annual contract price being $180,167.

Szalay noted the new contract is similar to the existing one, but with some changes. For example, there will be no more glass pickup, and yard waste collection will increase in frequency (from six to 19 collections per year).

Starting with garbage collection, the current pickup service of one bag or container per week will remain the same. But BFI has offered to collect two bags per week at the same price as one bag. However, Szalay recommended that the collection limit be left at one bag per week. Any more than that would have an effect on tipping fees at the landfi ll, he stated. For example, the Town pays the RDOS about $33,000 in annual tipping fees for residential garbage collection. Changing the service to two bags or containers a week would increase the tipping fee by $16,500-$20,000, Szalay said.

For customers with additional garbage, the Town sells garbage tags for $1.50 a piece. But BFI is proposing a cost of $2.25 per tag.

Unlimited blue bag recycling collection every second week and large item collection once a year will remain un-changed.

Szalay noted the total volume of weekly garbage collect-ed has decreased from nearly 900 to just under 600 tonnes per year (approximately 33 per cent).

“This reduction is attributed to most residents becom-ing more conscientious blue bag recyclers.”

Szalay said the proposal to increase the frequency of yard waste collection stems from the fact a high volume of household waste is still fi nding its way to the landfi ll.

BFI is proposing to charge $44 per tonne to debag all the yard waste that comes in plastic bags. This amounts to approximately $11 per household per year.

Szalay said this could be avoided by using kraft paper bags or open con-tainers. The bottom line is increasing the frequency of yard waste collec-tion will divert waste from the landfi ll and reduce annual tipping fees, he pointed out.

As far as glass collection goes, Szalay said its low value no longer justi-fi es curbside collection.

Councillor Jack Bennest said a 21 per cent increase over the existing contract is cost prohibitive. He also doesn’t see a huge demand for an in-crease in yard waste collection services.

Councillor Marji Basso said she was uncomfortable with the debagging costs and the proposed increase in the cost of garbage tags.

Garbage collection contract to cost more...Continued from Pg A1

Vineyard proposes small winery lounge areaRoad 13 Vineyards south of Oliver is proposing to develop a small exte-

rior patio to serve wine.The owners, Golden Mile Cellars Inc., have applied for a Winery Lounge

Endorsement Area application from the Liquor Control and Licensing Branch. The branch requested the RDOS to consider the application and provide a resolution, but the board, as usual, voted not to provide com-ment.

Deputy Corporate Offi cer Cathy Cowan said the board does not want to comment on individual liquor licence applications.

She noted the application in question is for a small patio abutting the manufacturing building. There is no interior lounge at this time.

Cowan also stated there are no social facilities or public buildings in the immediate vicinity of the Road 13 winery. The neighbourhood consists of

farms, a dozen residences, and two wineries. An increase in noise and a signifi cant increase in traffi c are not anticipated, she pointed out.

Cowan said there are 24 parking spaces available for visitors, with 10-20 overfl ow spots available (if required) at the rear of the building.

“There is a mountain behind the winery with the hills serving as natural barriers between it and other establishments.”

Winery lounge endorsement areas allow the selling and serving of BC wine by the glass or bottle. The requested hours of operation of the pro-posed lounge are 9 a.m. to 11 p.m. Sunday to Saturday.

Under the winery lounge endorsement area guidelines, food and non-alcoholic beverages must be available at reasonable prices, and minors are permitted when accompanied by a parent or guardian.

Council briefs Police briefsTown applies for ‘Tomorrow’ grant

The Town of Oliver has applied for a special “Towns For Tomorrow” grant to establish two chlorine contact facili-ties in order to enhance water quality.

The proposed facilities at the Rockcliffe pumping station and the Tuc-el-Nuit well would improve the chlorine con-tact time needed to ensure water quality. This move stems from last year’s water quality advisory after contaminants were found in the system. Chlorine was used to address the problem, but the actual source of the bacteria was never discovered.

The grant is for $368,000.Municipal Manager Tom Szalay said if they don’t get the

grant, the Town won’t likely proceed with the facilities.

Council to meet with OIB

February 1 is the date set for a council-to-council meet-ing between the Town of Oliver and the Osoyoos Indian Band.

The groups will meet to discuss various agenda items and issues deemed important.

Come back, Bruce

Members of Council refl ected on the recent retirement of former director of operations Bruce Hamilton.

“I’m sorry to see Bruce Hamilton retire . . . he’s been the rock here for 33 years,” said Jack Bennest.

Andre Miller and Rick Machial wished Hamilton a happy retirement, saying he’s doing it at a young age.

Mayor Pat Hampson said he enjoyed “roasting” Hamil-ton during his retirement party.

“I don’t think it’s fair for someone to retire without be-ing slagged.”

Hampson’s advice to Hamilton was to “stay out of the kitchen.”

Right-of-way details disclosed

Council disclosed information about a right-of-way for fi sh screening facilities installed near the irrigation canal intake south of Vaseux Lake.

At a closed meeting last summer, Council authorized staff to complete negotiations with McIntyre Bluff Ranch for the acquisition of a statutory right-of-way. This was to protect a buried pipeline installed to transport fi sh from upstream of the screening facility back into Okanagan River.

The costs incurred in the right-of-way include: $40,000 as payment to the landowner; $2,905 for legal fees and dis-bursements; and $2,882 for survey costs.

Two poles on the move

Council has authorized staff to enter an agreement with FortisBC allowing two new poles to be placed in the Town’s canal right-of-way.

Director of Operations Shawn Goodsell said it has been determined that recent construction on fl umes 6 and 7 will require that the poles be moved.

FortisBC has agreed to move the poles at its cost. Good-sell said the Town will also be utilizing power from one of the poles for a future alarm system on the canal.

Flumes 6 and 7 are being upgraded because they have surpassed their life expectancy.

Criticism or praise?

That’s what Councillor Michael Newman will be waiting for after he presents a report on the street naming/house numbering project next Monday.

“I’ll be bringing something to Council on January 24, then we’ll stand back and wait for the criticism or praise.”

Newman is chairman of the street naming steering com-mittee, which has been working tirelessly to enhance the Town of Oliver’s address system.

Pressure washer stolenOn January 10 the Oliver/Osoyoos RCMP were advised

of a break-in to a shed overnight in the 36,800 block of 79 St.

The homeowner awakened to discover the theft af-ter noting that the padlock to his shed had been cut. Upon further inspection, it was noted that a pressure washer was stolen from within the structure. Nothing else appears to have been taken or disturbed. The hom-eowner believes he heard something around 5:30 a.m. but thought nothing of it at the time. There were no wit-nesses to the incident and no suspects identifi ed.

Thieves take laptopsOn January 11 local police were dispatched to a resi-

dential break and enter in the 33,400 block of 125 St. The homeowners stepped out for approximately one

hour, returning to fi nd that unknown person(s) had en-tered the residence and rifl ed through their personal belongings. The unknown person(s) then left taking two laptop computers with them. There were no witnesses, and no suspects were identifi ed.

Turn over a new leaf - recycle

The Oliver Chronicle welcomes letters to the [email protected]

We can’t fathom how anyone can toss a tin can or a milk carton in the garbage and still sleep at night.

Either we’re real geeks or just conscientious re-cyclers. Even throwing a piece of paper in the trash makes us feel guilty.

Have you ever considered the feelings of a lowly plastic pudding cup as it hurtles (in slow motion) to-wards a garbage receptacle? It doesn’t want to share space with week-old spaghetti; it wants to live the high life in a blue bag – the ritz of temporary ac-commodations before being shredded and melted. Mmmm . . . on second thought, perhaps life at the landfi ll would be better.

Blasphemy! Just think, after being recycled, you could come

back as a piece of carpet, where people walk all over you. (As if that doesn’t happen enough in real life.)

You could become a child’s favourite toy, a piece of plastic lumber, or a rope. The possibilities are endless.

Our point is that recycling is the right thing to do for the environment, not to mention our landfi lls, which are bursting at the seams.

Sadly, many people are still content on throwing a lot of recyclables in the garbage. Why? Either they don’t care or they’re lazy. But this indifference is cost-ing society (and taxpayers) a lot.

You don’t have to be obsessive recyclers like some people, who wash out their soup cans with a fevered brow. Simply establish two containers, one labelled “you stink” for garbage, the other labeled “recycle me.”

After a week of this activity, you’ll feel like a better person, reborn and purged of all sin. Okay, we’re ex-aggerating a little, but it’s a nice thought.

We can say with some certainty that recycling makes one feel environmentally responsible. We only wish it wasn’t so expensive.

The RDOS should actually be paying us for helping it divert waste from the landfi ll, which it must do by law. All we know is it doesn’t feel good in our house-coat and slippers carrying blue bags to the curb in -10 degree weather. That demands some coin for our trouble, not a hefty bill.

Helicopters would erode peace Editor, Oliver Chronicle:

Oliver town council is being asked to support a new he-licopter business at the Oliver airport.

This could produce a couple of jobs but at a great cost to our peace of mind and enjoyment of this beautiful, quiet little town.

We will hear every fl ight and if the company succeeds they plan on adding more helicopters and making much more noise, which is a serious form of pollution.

Although we can use more jobs in Oliver, I don't think it should be at any cost.

Bob Parker, Oliver

Trap geese and give to food bankEditor, Oliver Chronicle:

I must admit I haven’t had a Christmas goose for many a year but now that Oliver council brings up the subject the thought crosses my mind.

The goose problem is where it is because they have been allowed to become almost domesticated and now reside in our backyards. Domesticated you say, well, those are eat-ing words. See where I am going?

Why not begin a trapping program, then do as the beef farmers do. Fatten them on feed that reduces the wild taste

and provide them to the food bank to help those who would like a goose now and again. This would be a permanent so-lution for 100 per cent of the birds that are captured.

There will be arguments against this just because this year’s goose count is down from last year’s. Is that a shaken egg syndrome?

Regardless, I think a try at something of this nature is al-most mandatory as the birds are now roosting on the run-way of an airport that is scheduled to become more busy.

Rick Kellow, Oliver

Editor, Oliver Chronicle:

Where is this world heading?Who knows with today’s marketing strategies that im-

ply that it’s okay to lie (if you don’t get caught.) Picture a person being told they have been selected for a commer-cial, but they have to whiten their smile. No blueberry pie, no coffee and no red wine.

Next scene: The person is shovelling down blueberry pie, gulping coffee and sucking down a gallon of red wine, then gets the commercial job and winks at us (the viewers) because they have been using a particular brand of tooth whitener that fooled everyone.

No harm, no foul? I don’t think so. This kind of market-ing indicates that it is alright to break the rules as long as no one notices and no one gets hurt. This goes against our basic principles of truth and trust.

It seems that there are no longer any boundaries in this world, providing that you get ahead. So far as you are not hurting anyone, it’s okay. Then, it goes to even if you are

hurting someone, as long as you don’t know them, it’s okay.But trust is a bond that is far stronger than anything

that is superseded by fi nancial remuneration. However, people today are so enveloped by the need to get ahead, that we are being shown that it’s okay to deceive as long as you don’t get caught.

You have a car that can parallel park itself, that’s be-cause you cannot parallel park or barely drive yourself. But, oops, you just smashed into a car because your car wouldn’t stop. (You didn’t know that you had to intervene by putting your foot on the brake.)

These may be safer vehicles, but what we need is well-trained safer drivers.

Let’s wake up folks; it’s time to “love your neighbour,” as our Lord and Saviour said … not to be caving to this “okey-dokey” all-for-me attitude. Wake up, do what’s right. And you do know the difference.

Bill Powers, Oliver

Let’s wake up and do the right thing


Vietnam: What was that war really all about?

‘Afl ockalypse Now’ part of mass animal die-offs

David Suzuki

Gwynne Dyer

Communist Party congresses are generally tedious events, and the eleventh congress of the Vietnamese Communist Party (12-17 January) is no exception. The changes in personnel at the top are decided by the elite in-ner circle of the Party long be-fore the congress opens, and the rhetoric is in the same wooden language that Communists al-ways use.

The talk is all about fi ghting infl ation and corruption (there’s quite a lot of both those things in Vietnam), while maintain-ing a high economic growth rate (6.8 per-cent last year). Ordinary people are strug-gling to maintain their standard of living (although they are far better off than they were twenty or forty years ago), and resent being bossed around by the Communist elite – but they feel helpless to do anything about it.

In other words, it’s not all that different from the situation in, say, Thailand, just a little to the west, apart from the fact that the economic elite in Vietnam are Commu-nist Party members and their businessman cronies.

Thailand is technically a de-mocracy, but if you are a rural “red shirt” in Thailand your views on those in power will be little different from those that many Vietnamese peasants pri-vately hold about the Commu-nist Party. It’s a more traditional elite in Thailand, but it clings to power just as tightly, and re-wards itself even more lavishly.

So what was it all about, then? Why was there a 15-year war in Vietnam (1960-75) that killed 58,000 American sol-diers, and between one and three million Vietnamese? The US government insisted at the time that it was about stopping Com-munist expansionism in Vietnam before it swept through all of South-East Asia. The Communists, who controlled North Viet-nam, said it was only about reuniting the country. Who was right?

In retrospect, it’s clear that the Commu-nists were telling the truth. They won the war in Vietnam despite all the efforts of the United States, but the “domino effect” in the rest of South-East Asia never happened. In fact, the Vietnamese Communists never even tried to knock the dominoes over.

Apart from invading Cambodia in 1978 to drive the Khmer Rouge, a much nas-tier group of Communists, from power, Communist-ruled Vietnam has never sent troops abroad or interfered in the internal affairs of other countries in the region. Af-ter a decade all the Vietnamese troops were withdrawn from Cambodia, and even there Hanoi has virtually no infl uence today.

So, once again, what was the war about? How did three American presidents allow themselves to be misled into fi ghting such a pointless, unwinnable war? Dwight Eisen-hower, John Kennedy and Lyndon Johnson were all intelligent men, and Eisenhower also had much experience at the highest level of military and diplomatic decision-making.

To varying degrees, they all fell for a strategic vision of the world that was mere fantasy, driven by ideology. Or rather, in Eisenhower’s case and to some extent also in Kennedy’s, they found it politically im-possible to resist the demands of those who did live fully within that fantasy. So Ameri-can foreign policy had little connection with reality for several decades, and a lot of people died.

The point is that this sort of thing hap-

pens all the time. The “war on terror” now is functionally almost indistinguishable from the anti-Communist crusade of the 1950s and 1960s, although the actual wars involve much lower levels of casualties. For Vietnam in 1960, read Iraq in 2003 – or, per-haps, Iran the day after tomorrow.

It doesn’t only happen to Americans, of course. The various British invasions of Af-ghanistan in the 19th century were driven by the conviction that the rapacious Rus-sians wanted to seize Britain’s Indian em-pire, although the thought hadn’t even oc-curred to the Russians. Germans spent the decade before the First World War worried that they were being “encircled” by the other great powers.

But these delusions mainly affl ict the great powers, because weaker countries cannot afford such expensive follies. They have to deal with reality as it is – which is why the Vietnamese Communists, for ex-ample, never dreamed of trying to spread their faith across the rest of the region. They were and are pragmatic people with purely local ambitions, so the resolutions of the 11th Party Congress are of little in-terest to anybody else.

On New Year’s Eve, 5,000 red-winged blackbirds dropped out of the sky in Beebe, Arkansas. Necropsies revealed no evidence of poi-soning but did indicate the birds had suffered massive internal trauma. Days later, fi sherman observed schools of fi sh fl oating belly up on Chesapeake Bay. In England, tens of thousands of dead crabs washed up on local beaches, and re-ports come in almost daily of penguins, tur-tles, and even dolphins dying unexpectedly in the wild. Are these events signs of the “afl ockalypse”, as the media have dubbed the recent die-offs? The answer is yes. And no.

Our inherent love and respect for the natural world compels us to take notice when animals die in large numbers, but ob-servations going back more than a century suggest that the mass-mortality events of recent weeks aren’t as unusual as we might think, and they are often the result of natu-ral causes, such as adverse weather, disease outbreaks, or stress associated with long-distance migration.

In analyzing bird counts, journal records, and other observations dating back to the late 19th century, European researchers found frequent reports of deaths of birds in the hundreds and thousands. One mas-sive kill occurred in spring 1964, when an estimated 100,000 king eiders, represent-ing nearly a tenth of the species’ west-ern Canadian population, perished in the Beaufort Sea. These large, beautiful ducks starved when pools of open water among the sea-ice re-froze suddenly, preventing them from getting to the food in the water below. More recently, an estimated 40,000 individual birds from 45 different species were killed on April 8, 1993, when a tor-nado crossed their migration routes off the coast of Louisiana.

While the sudden death of wildlife in great numbers is alarming, the unravelling of entire food webs is happening all around us and every day – but in a far less obvi-ous manner. With every patch of forest cut, wetland drained, or grassland paved, our ongoing destruction of wildlife habitat is leading to population declines, and even

driving some species to extinction.According to the experts, more

than 17,000 plants and animals are threatened with extinction because of human activity, mostly through habitat loss. This includes 12 per cent of all known birds, nearly a quarter of known mammals, and a third of known amphibians. Cli-mate change is predicted to sharply increase the risk of species extinc-tion within our own children’s life-

time. According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, 20 to 30 per cent of plant and animal species assessed will likely be at increased risk of extinction if global average temperatures continue to rise with escalating emissions of carbon pollution.

This wildlife crisis has been described as a silent epidemic by scientists like famed Harvard entomologist E.O. Wilson, because it receives so little attention from govern-ments. The David Suzuki Foundation re-cently released a study of government re-cords showing that nearly half of all known wildlife species in British Columbia are at risk, including grizzly bears, caribou, and orca whales. Yet, B.C. has no endangered species law to protect its wildlife and habi-tat from logging, mining, urban sprawl, and other human activity.

Canada has a federal endangered species law, but the government is dragging its feet on implementing it. As a consequence, some wildlife populations, like the north-ern spotted owl in southwestern B.C., have declined precipitously under the watch of our politicians and are now on the verge of extinction in Canada.

The unsettling events of recent weeks reveal the inherent vulnerability of wild-life to sudden and dramatic population de-clines, often as a result of natural causes. This is all the more reason to ensure we don’t exacerbate the challenges faced by wildlife in an increasingly busy world. We need to reduce the environmental stressors that we impose on wildlife, so that they can better cope with and survive the challenges they face every day. We need to eliminate dangerous pesticides and other toxic ma-terials, protect the habitat of endangered plants and animals like caribou, and get se-rious about tackling climate change.

SOGH showcases lab upgrades giving patients more privacy

Upgrades to the South Okanagan General Hospital lab were celebrated last Friday by MLA John Slater, IH board director Ken Burrows, lab staff and plant services staff.

Ken Burrows, Interior Health board director said, “It was important to make the changes as comfortable as possible respecting the patients’ privacy and providing staff with an effi cient and effective work area.”

What used to be closets are now part of the waiting area and patient areas providing more room for patients while attending the lab, as well as providing more workspace for staff.

The renovation project cost $26,000 and was funded through IH capital and included new fl ooring, paint, light-ing, counter tops, additional workspace as well as upgrades to networks, electrical, HVAC, a hands-free sink and shelv-ing. All of the work was completed in-house except for the fl ooring and did not restrict lab services during the pro-cess.

Marty Woods, director of IH laboratory operations stat-ed that it is all about partnerships and taking the responsi-

bility to have healthcare closer to home for local residents. “The patient area of the lab used to be cramped and of-

fered little privacy. “We’re extremely happy with the up-graded space and our patients appreciate the new collec-tion areas.”

“The patients love it,” said Jeanette Savaia, medical technologist and professional practice leader.

Boundary-Similkameen MLA John Slater said, “The up-grades to the lab at South Okanagan General Hospital are another example of our government’s dedication to pro-viding top quality healthcare services to British Columbi-ans in rural communities.”

He noted the renovated lab provides a more effi cient and comfortable workspace that will benefi t both staff and residents.

IH board chair Norman Embree thanked plant services staff for their excellent work, as well as lab staff for being so accommodating during the renovations.

“While the retrofi t of this lab may seem small in scope, every IH project is undertaken to improve our patients’ ex-perience when they need access to healthcare.”

Since 2002, Interior Health has expended over $883 mil-lion in capital to better serve B.C. Interior residents.

Alzheimer’s disease is the most common form of dementia (memory deterioration). Alzheim-er’s often occurs when cells are damaged and eventually die in different areas of the brain. It isgenerally diagnosed in people over 65, although early-onset Alzheimer’s can occur much soon-er. Early signs of Alzheimer’s show how the disease will occur, but development is different foreach person. Although it has no current cure, treatment for symptoms, combined with the rightservice and support, can make life better for millions of Canadians living with Alzheimer’s.

Oliver Riding Club itching to giddyup in 2011

Photo contributed

Here is some inspiration for riders itching to hop on the saddle. “Luke” is seen overlooking Co-vert Farms during a leisurely ride.

The Oliver Riding Club has been pretty quiet this past month (December) - too cold for us wimps to be riding.

We had our AGM in November. Our ex-ecutive for 2011 is: president Debbie House; vice-president Janice Goodman; secretary Maggie Strong; treasurer Trish Osland; membership rep Margie Fisher; and news-letter rep Janice Goodman.

Our Christmas party in December was well attended as usual. A big thank-you to Carol Lydiatt for hosting once again. One of the highlights was the biggest trout I have ever seen beautifully baked and presented by Gary and Linda Venables.

There were some fun games as well. We made $190 with the “Twoonie” games; the proceeds were donated to the Oliver food bank and the Penticton SPCA. We also col-lected many items to donate to the food bank.

Dawn Muller organized an amazing “memory” cake. It actually had pictures from some of our events on it.

In looking back on 2010, we have a lot to be proud of:

We got our jumps back from Desert Park in Osoyoos and have put them all to good use;

We were represented at the WOW trade show in Oliver;

Our website (oliverridingclub.com) is up and running;

Our membership has increased to 55 members including children;

We raised over $2,000 for the Children’s Wish Foundation;

We held clinics, demos, competitions, a scavenger hunt, percentage days, etc.;

We volunteered at a couple of triathlons and raised $1,000 for our club;

We had a lot of fun and a lot of new ex-periences with our horses. This is all thanks to an amazing executive and events com-mittee.

Before I forget – happy 75th birthday to Frank Siebeck on January 12. Way to go, Frank - you are a great inspiration.

Our events committee is really enthused about the upcoming riding season.

Here are some of the plans for the club:The club will have a table at the Oliver

WOW trade show and be chatting to people about what we do and what we are about, plus drumming up new members;

We plan on running a Childen’s Wish Foundation ride again in 2011;

We are scoping out some demos for rein-ing, and in conjunction with D Bar K Ranch, a barrel racing demo;

We will be organizing at least one dres-sage practice day as last year’s was such a success;

We are planning a “horsey” quiz night at our local pub in February. Club members can pair up or go it alone and answer some tough horsey-style questions. There is ru-mour of a prize.

Already in progress - pilates classes with Active Balance. We are thrilled that Active Balance has sat down with the club to dis-cuss our fi tness requirements and goals.

The club is always open to suggestions or any new ideas.

We meet the third Thursday of each month. Call Margie Fisher at 250-498-4579 for more info.

Airport plan grounded by funding problems

A lack of funding has resulted in a tem-porary setback in Oliver’s Airport Improve-ment Project.

The Real Estate Foundation of BC said “no” to a grant request of $26,580 to kick-start the Airport Strategic Plan. Now, the Airport Advisory Committee must look for another funding source.

On January 12, project manager Graham Jenkinson updated Town Council on the ambitious plan to transform the “underuti-lized” airport into a regional facility.

“The bottom line here is we’ve been trying to do this (plan) several times, so we want to try and make it successful this time,” Jenkinson said.

He noted the airport is truly an asset, and has the potential to become a hub for air services and businesses in the South Okanagan.

Jenkinson stated that communities in this region are better served by central-izing airport services. This will create sig-nificant employment potential, he pointed out.

Jenkinson said new businesses at the

airport will increase the commercial tax base and attract more people to move to Oliver. Hopefully, it will fill some vacant storefronts in town, and may even drive economic renewal for the area, he added.

Jenkinson envisions the airport accom-modating larger aircraft and charter ser-vices.

Speculative projects include the follow-ing: north taxiway, navigation aids, ex-tended ramp, and a runway realignment (lengthening).

The consultant who conducts the stra-tegic plan will identify the mandatory and optional projects needed, along with their estimated costs and priorities.

The next step in the project is to obtain funding for the plan and to acquire an air-port consultant.

Chief Financial Officer David Svetlichny said there’s a possibility of having the plan funded through gas taxes, but the Town would need to demonstrate a clear link be-tween the plan and its community growth strategy.

Municipal Manager Tom Szalay said gas tax funding is normally given to “green” projects that improve health and safety.

Schools prepare for FSA

All students in Grades 4 and 7 are expect-ed to write the Foundation Skills Assess-ment between January 17 and February 25.

The FSA is an annual province-wide as-sessment of BC students’ academic skills, and provides a snapshot of how well pupils are learning foundation skills in reading comprehension, writing, and numeracy.

Students at Tuc-el-Nuit Elementary School will be writing the FSA (both online and pen and paper components) during the two-week window of February 7-18.

The main purpose of the assessment is to

help the province, school districts, schools and planning committees to evaluate how well students are achieving basic skills, and to make plans to improve achievement.

The FSA is designed and developed by BC educators. The skills tested are linked to the provincial curriculum and provincial performance standards. Results measure a child’s performance at a point in time (February) and do not include the far more complicated learning needs of the child.

The results provide an opportunity to have a conversation with the teacher about how to best understand and support a child’s school achievement.

Immigrant, multiculturalservices reach out locally

After years of “temporary digs” a non-profi t society has found what it hopes will be permanent quarters in downtown Oli-ver.

The Penticton-based South Okanagan Immigrant and Community Services (SO-ICS) opened an outreach offi ce at 35653-97 Street on January 4, ending a cycle that saw the society previously offering its services to local immigrants at sites like Park Drive Church and the Bhavsagar Sikh Temple.

The society, which is part of the Penticton and Dis-trict Multiculturalism So-ciety, reaches out to immi-grants providing them with English Language Services for Adults (ELSA), teach-ing them computer skills, and helping newcomers integrate into their chosen communities by offering settlement services. Chil-dren of recent immigrants receive assistance as well; a settlement worker is under contract to School District #53 and attends the various schools to fa-miliarize new students with the Canadian school system, help them adjust to their surroundings and support teachers in-volved in the process.

Hilma LaBelle, the Penticton executive director of SOICS, said the society had been looking for a location for the past several years, after an increase in government funding in 2008 made a move feasible. Their funding originates in Ottawa and is rolled out provincially through the Minis-try of Regional Economic and Skills Devel-opment.

“The actual branch that looks after im-migrant integration now is called Immi-grant Integration and Multiculturalism branch,” said LaBelle. “However, we also get funding from other areas not just the government. We are a not-for-profi t soci-ety and a registered charity.”

With the opening of the new offi ce, their main operations can be consolidated in one location, reinforcing their programs’ posi-tive aspects and giving their clients a sense of continuity as they navigate the transi-tion between the comfort of their own cul-tures and the unfamiliarity of a Canadian one.

And the outreach offi ce expects to be an integral part of the coming shift in cultural diversity.

“The immigrant sector—both federally

and provincially—is growing. There is a recognition of defi cits in the labour mar-ket; with baby boomers aging and moving on there are gaps in services and gaps in skills and immigrants are one of the areas the government is looking at in terms of meeting labour market demand.”

Currently the Oliver offi ce employs three full-time staff members, people who speak a variety of languages including Punjabi, Portuguese and English, said Fiona Sime, and they expect to add Spanish to the ros-

ter soon.However, immigrants

come from other nations too, countries in continents like Africa and Asia with multiple languages and dialects. Not to worry, said LaBelle.

“Between our Board of Directors, volunteers and staff, we have 22 languages spoken and they come from almost every continent. We are really fortunate to have a lot of people who come here and enrich the com-

munity with the language skills. “But we also have iCHAT which is es-

sentially face-to-face video conferencing at the Penticton offi ce, so if there is a lan-guage that is missing at the Oliver location, that person can video chat and do face-to-face meetings in their language with our staff here.”

SOICS has been recognized as a leader in its rural or remote services delivery, La-Belle noted, and has been able to demon-strate how the society has improved access to services through these linkages.

Although the local offi ce has been open for just a few weeks, it has already been ac-cessed by people needing its services—ei-ther for themselves or for relatives in their home countries who are requesting immi-gration information.

And it might come as a surprise regard-ing who those hopeful immigrants are, re-vealed LaBelle. The current economic and political situation in many countries is the infl uencing many requests and polishing another facet in the Canadian cultural mo-saic.

“It is an interesting phenomenon—be-cause when we think immigrant we tend to think visible minority—but now we are seeing a lot of immigrants coming in from Europe. We are seeing Irish immigrants as well as people from England and the US.”

The Oliver offi ce is open Monday to Fri-day from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

Thunder puts away VernonOn January 16 the South Okanagan Ban-

Tristan Baptiste Hall played the full 60 minutes between the pipes, allowing only

one goal. The game was fast and hard hit-ting.

Scoring were Shelby Taylor 1 goal, 1 as-sist, and Jarod Street 1 goal, 1 assist. Craig Thompson scored a beautiful one-timer from the point, while Josh Windley, Ty-ler Holz and Tristan Calverly each had an assist.

Casorso receives scouting kudosAnyone who has been involved in Scouts in the South

Okanagan in the last 10 years knows what a huge force Ron Casorso is in the area.

He has served on every level: in the Oliver group, the area team, and he now runs the area website and single handedly runs the bookings for all four of the camps in the area.

Ron is a wealth of information and ideas – but it is his “let them do it and watch what happens” attitude that is loved the most. Sometimes it worked, a lot of times it didn’t, but the kids learned either way.

Scouts and Ron are one and the same around Oli-ver.

As part of the area team Ron has strived to make sure that the leaders are receiving the fundamental training they need. It was Ron who came up with the plan on how to teach the area program planning on mass. Ron was well or-ganized and had all the paperwork and calendars ready including a Power-Point presentation.

Ron held many positions in the area. He was area administrator and ran the meeting for several years assisting Dave Mitchell. He did an excellent job as the area registrar and made several well thought out suggestions to better the national registration and

MMS process. When the need for someone to step up to the plate and take on the area commissioner job Ron allowed himself to be coerced into taking on a co-commissioner role.

One of the most admirable things about Ron is his ability to empower everyone around him. His fellow leaders were always given the encouragement to grow. However, the best example of his inspiration is in the youth that have been fortunate enough to have had him as a leader, either as Scouts or Venturers.

Recent warm weather has spurred construction work at Southwinds Crossing. From left, Ryan McDougall and Peter Brennan erect steel trusses for the new Buy-Low Foods store.

The RDOS is asking for a 10.59 per cent tax increase from the Town of Oliver this year, while Area C is looking at a 1.84 per cent increase.

That was the bottom line of a budget presentation made by RDOS officials on January 10.

The total requisition for the Town of Oliver in 2011 is $934,063, compared to $844,588 in 2010, an increase of $89,475. For Area C, the increase is $20,733 (from $1.12 mil-lion in 2010 to $1.14 million this year).

Warren Everton, manager of finance for the RDOS, out-lined several line items that impact this year’s increase for the Town of Oliver.

Refuse disposal costs are going up 10.1 per cent (from $52,045 to $57,563). Recreation services (including the are-na and pool) will cost $23,000 more this year (from about $400,000 to $423,000).

The cost for parks is also going up (from $137,869 to $143,902). General government costs are increasing $5,100, while noxious weed services are going up, too (from $690 to $1,576).

The big increase this year is the $3.5 million Frank Ven-

ables Auditorium upgrade. There was no tax requisition for that last year, but this year it’s $56,425. The upgrade is slated for completion in 2012.

The cost for regional services has decreased 4.5 per cent, mainly due to the elimination of the district’s air quality coordinator position last year.

The 2011 tax requisition will mean the average taxes per property in Oliver will increase approximately $38 (from $362 to $400).

In Area C, the average taxes per property will increase approximately $8 (from $442 to $451).

The following is a list of line items that Area C residents will pay more for in 2011: building inspection (up $6,398); noxious weeds (up $646); Oliver Arena (up $14,034); com-munity centre (up $7,877); parks (up $4,399); pool (up $4,146); refuse disposal (up $4,023); unsightly premises (up $1,083); and the sterile insect release program (up $12,109).

Bill Newell, the RDOS’s chief executive officer, said the district is working on a number of big projects that will impact the Oliver area this year.

One is the Climate Action Plan, and the other is the sep-tic waste transfer station at the Oliver landfill.

Newell said Osoyoos is no longer accepting sewage from outside users, so a transfer station will be built at the land-

fill in Oliver. He noted tenders will be going out soon. He also stated the facility could be funded by gas taxes.

Newell pointed out that the RDOS’s curbside collection program expires in June, so a new contract has to be ne-gotiated. This sparks the concern that rates will increase, Newell said. He noted the collection program will see changes, such as an increase in yard waste collection and re-usable containers.

Newell said the RDOS is looking at more training in emergency preparedness, following last year’s mudslide in Oliver. He also noted the 911 dispatch system will come under review, which will be the topic of debate in 2011. (The RDOS will no longer use Penticton Fire Department operators to dispatch calls as of Dec. 31, 2011, which has caused some concern.)

Oliver Town Councillor Rick Machial questioned Newell about the new wastewater treatment plant to be built in Okanagan Falls. Machial was alarmed about hearing that treated sewage is being dumped in the river, and Oliver is downstream from it. Newell said the plan was always to di-rect this treated wastewater back into the Okanagan River.

Machial also suggested it would be a good idea for the Oliver landfill to accept fruit culls at no charge.

Hydrant deal reachedIt’s amazing what a little communication

and a cheaper price can do to solve a con-fl ict.

That was the case when the Town and the Rural Fire Protection District reached a gentleman’s agreement over the installa-tion of a fi re hydrant on airport land.

The Oliver Fire Department recently re-quested that a fi re hydrant be installed near its new training grounds at the southeast corner of the airport. The cost was initially estimated at $27,000, and the Town wanted the Rural Fire Protection District to enter into a cost-sharing agreement. But the dis-trict balked, saying it shouldn’t have to pay for a hydrant within town boundaries.

At the January 10 meeting of Council, Rural Fire Protection District spokesman Ernie Rotheisler said they don’t feel re-sponsible for a hydrant on village property. He noted the district was led astray with the initial cost pegged at $27,000. Now it’s

down to $10,000, which is an easier pill to swallow.

Fire Chief Dan Skaros said the depart-ment is willing to put in the labour to get the job done. About 62 metres of trenching is required.

Councillor Michael Newman voiced his disappointment with the district’s stance on the matter. He noted the district is joint-ly paying for the new training grounds, so why is it having diffi culty with cost sharing to install the hydrant?

“It’s not the way I like to see the rural (area) and the Town collaborate.”

Councillor Jack Bennest said if the fi re training centre was in the rural area, the Town would certainly share the cost of a hydrant there.

Rotheisler defended the district by say-ing they do their share to help the fi re de-partment and local residents. In fact, he agreed in the end to split the new installa-tion cost of a used hydrant supplied by the district.


SOSA looking for supportThe South Okanagan Sportsmen’s Asso-

ciation is soliciting support for its 65th an-nual game banquet on February 5.

“Our game banquet is the major fund-raiser for our association each year,” said SOSA president Ron Ostermeier. “We have door prizes, raffl es, silent auction, etc., and any donation is a great help and very much appreciated.”

Those willing and able to help SOSA with this endeavor will be recognized as a spon-sor of the event. For more information, call 250-498-3205.

The association is a non-profi t organiza-

tion dedicated to the preservation of fi sh, wildlife and their habitat. It also promotes the conservation of natural resources, and the strict enforcement of fi shing and hunt-ing regulations. In addition, SOSA is a big promoter of fi rearm safety and sportsman-like conduct.

The club prides itself in educating local youth in safe shooting practices, and en-courages competition.

In 2010, three local juniors competed in archery at the BC Winter Games in Kitimat and brought home a bronze metal.

Oliver museum getting ready for renovations

Town Council is supporting an applica-tion by the Oliver and District Heritage So-ciety to upgrade the museum.

Following a January 10 presentation by museum director Darryl MacKenzie, Coun-cil voted to contribute $3,500 towards the renovations (to begin this fall). Council also agreed to write a letter of endorsement for the Society, which is seeking a $15,000 grant from the Community Foundation of the South Okanagan.

The museum resides in the former pro-vincial police building constructed in 1924. Recent upgrading included bringing the electrical system up to code and improving the lighting and exhibitry. But there is still considerable work required to make the building more accessible.

MacKenzie said they are limited when it comes to exhibition space, and they want to create a more open and comfortable en-

vironment for the public.“The project is being undertaken to con-

tinue to improve our sustainability into the future. By opening up the building, a bet-ter, more fl exible, attractive space will be available as a community amenity (to share and promote Oliver’s history),” MacKenzie said.

He noted they want to change the mu-seum’s front porch entry because it opens out over stairs, which is a code violation.

The plan also includes improving ac-cess to the rear of the building, which is not wheelchair accessible. The door is four inches too narrow and needs to be wid-ened.

MacKenzie said they need to replace old bathroom plumbing, and open up the gallery space. For example, they plan to remove a wall between existing exhibit rooms to provide a larger hall area.

The Oliver and District Heritage Society has committed up to $5,000 for the project, along with volunteer hours for site prepa-ration, light construction duties and paint-ing.



Museum director Darryl MacKenzie stands at the front entrance to the building on 356 Avenue.

Upgrading will make museum more open

Gallagher Lake wastewater treatment project not chosenThe Gallagher Lake wastewater treatment project will have to wait a few more tomor-

COMMUNITY NEWSNEWS

When the ticking is the bombYour heart is an amazing organ. It gives

life to every cell of the body by feeding it with oxygenated and nutrition-rich blood. This fi st-sized powerhouse pumps fi ve or six quarts of blood each minute, or about 2,000 gallons per day, as well as beating about 100,000 times daily – or over 2.5 billion times in an average lifetime – without ceasing.

By some calculations, a healthy heart can produce enough energy in an hour to lift a one-ton car off the ground to a height of 41 feet each day. That's pretty strong, but what happens if your heart isn't healthy? A damaged heart doesn't work very well, perhaps leaving your body starved for oxygen. Even worse, if your arteries are damaged and your heart doesn't get enough blood, you may have trouble lifting your own body out of bed, much less lifting a car off the ground.

The heart is susceptible to many diseases. The most common is Coronary Artery Dis-ease (CAD). Many people have cholesterol plaques lining and narrowing the inside of their arteries, which is known as arthero-sclerosis. These plaques reduce the amount of oxygen-carrying blood that can fl ow in a given period of time. Artherosclerosis does not provide advance symptoms. If the nar-rowing reaches an advanced stage, it may result in a sudden coronary event such as cardiac arrest. This means that the heart has stopped beating.

Congestive heart failure (CHF) is another common disease of the heart. This occurs when the pumping action of the heart be-comes ineffi cient, and can be caused by the muscle being weakened by disease, me-chanical fault in the valves that control the fl ow of blood, or high blood pressure. Heart

failure does not mean that your heart stops beating, it means that it’s not working effi -ciently. Depending on how badly the heart is affected, symptoms could include short-ness of breath, chest pain, and swollen

ankles. Untreated heart failure imposes a strain on your entire system which can be fatal.

It is the electrical sys-tem of the heart that makes its beating possible. There are also diseases re-lated to the electrical im-pulses of the heart, such as ectopic heartbeats. Ec-topic heartbeats are early beats in an otherwise steady beat. This can mean your heart skipping a beat or adding an extra beat. At other times the SA node

(which is the pacemaker) of the heart can stop working or work poorly.

Ultimately, the most feared heart dis-ease is the “heart attack,” or as profession-ally called, an acute myocardial infarction (AMI). This is where the coronary arteries have narrowed so much that part of the heart muscle dies. This is usually due to CAD, but can be caused by blood clots or drug use.

So even though the heart is ticking, it can also become the “bomb” which dra-matically changes our life. The good news: You have a lot of control over how healthy your heart is.

What you do, what you eat and how you live can actually change how your heart works. It's amazing if you think about it -- you actually have the power to make your heart stronger with just a few changes in your lifestyle. That's a tremendous power to have, but are you taking advantage of it?

Remember the heart is one of the two most important organs in your body. Take care of it and it will last a lifetime.

Clif would love to travel to outer space and back

Clif AntypowichPhoto contributed

What is your most important value and why?Good health and good neighbours. Don’t try living with-

out either.

Why did you choose to live in this town? We lived at Gallagher Lake for 26 years, then we bought

a house in Osoyoos. But after living there for three years, we learned we had left our hearts in Oliver. With the help of a great realtor, Brian Wensley, we moved back and plan to stay put.

What would make Oliver a nicer community?More of the same kind of nice people. Preferably those

who love playing crokinole!

Do you have a goal in life?Yes, to be an example to my children and grandchildren

of a responsible trustworthy citizen.

If you had one super power, what would it be?To be able to heal diseases like Parkinson’s, cancer, etc.

If you won the $50 million Max lottery, what would you do with the money?

That can only happen if you buy a ticket! If the ques-tion was what would I do if I had $50 million I’d tell you that # 1 – I would see that Oliver would be the home of the Canadian Crokinole Championships with billboards across Canada that say “Visit Oliver, the Wine Capital of Canada and the Home of the Canadian Crokinole Championships.” #2 – Set up a special educational fund for local achievers. #3 – Set up a fund to assist with local community develop-ment projects.

#4 – Build a local trades and academic education facility like none other in the province.

If you were the mayor of Oliver, what would you do?That would remain to be seen! Probably sleep less!

If you were a fl y, which wall in town would you like to inhabit?

Not a wall but a ceiling so I could see all sides. Even if it were upside down.

What is your pet peeve in this community?Can’t think of any. Unless what appears to be lack of in-

centive to attract industry development.

If you could fast forward the Town of Oliver by 50 years, what can you visualize?

A beautifully developed, well planned town with resi-dential growth that has been created by environmentally friendly industrial development.

What is the perfect day for you in Oliver?Friends, visitors and family gathered at the Oliver Com-

munity Centre competing in the BC Open Crokinole Cham-pionship.

What community issues need the most attention?Lack of industry to create jobs; which would keep peo-

ple in Oliver, attract new people and give a reason for our young people to stay here.

What would be your ideal job?Be a scientist on the space station.

Who inspires you the most?Great teachers and business people of our community

and our country who help to bring out the best in students and employees.

If a genie granted you three wishes, what would they be?1. To have my heath back so I would have no excuse

when I’m beaten at the crokinole board, plus hundreds of other things that I could but can’t do now.

2. To have my children and grandchildren successfully established in a career of their choice.

3. To travel to outer space to view our spectacular earth and then return safely back home. Maybe just for good measure, throw in a space walk.

What is your greatest extravagance? Investing in real estate.

What living person do you most admire?Beyond a doubt and with much appreciation, my wife

Joyce, who is my life-long friend and my business partner… especially watching her take on the role of caregiver.

When and where were you happiest?Probably right now. Life is not perfect, but I still think I

prefer it to the alternative.

Who are your heroes in real life?My immigrant grandparents, especially my maternal

grandmother who, in poor health and alone with three young children, braved the unknown on an ocean voyage to a foreign country with language and cultural barriers, hoping of a better life for their descendents.

What or who is your greatest love in your life?My wife of 45 years.

What is it that you most dislike?Snow on my driveway. Negative, complaining people

who offer no solution to their complaining.

What do you consider your greatest achievement?Being “papa” to fi ve of the nicest grandchildren in the

world.

What is your favourite book?The autobiography, “Fate is the Hunter” by Ernest Gann

and “The Right Stuff.”

What is your favourite meal?Thanksgiving dinner prepared by my daughter, Alta.

Taking care of your children’s vision: If a child has a high prescription or a turned eye that is not detected at a young age, the area of their brain responsible for vision does not of their brain responsible for vision does not develop properly (amblyopia). This means that even when they get older it is often too late to treat and they may have a permanent lazy eye. Parents are usually unable to tell that their children have an eye problem. This is why it is recommended that children first is why it is recommended that children first have their eyes tested at age 3, then every year after, until they are adults.Dr. Amanda Erickson

Children bring Oliver message of hope

Watoto means “The Children” in Swahili and these chil-dren are on a mission that will take them on a journey from the West to the East coast of Canada, including Oliver.

Through inspirational songs and compelling stories, the Watoto Children’s Choir is spreading a message of hope for Africa’s children.

Join the Watoto Children's Choir for a “Concert of Hope” on February 8 at 6 p.m. at Southern Okanagan Secondary

School.Concerts of Hope are free, family-friendly events featur-

ing African rhythms and harmonies, which are accented by brilliant costumes and inspirational stories from the children of Watoto children’s villages in Uganda, East Af-rica. You will be moved by the music and captivated by the energy of these talented Ugandan children.

Watoto was established in 1994 as a compassionate re-sponse to the critical AIDS crisis in Uganda, East Africa. The goal of Watoto is to give these children hope, purpose, dig-nity and meaning.

Arrangements entrusted toNunes-Pottinger Funeral Service

& Crematorium, Oliver & Osoyoos, BC.www.nunes-pottinger.com

Betty passed away peacefully in the company of her de-voted husband, and many close friends. She will be missed by her loving husband, Maynard, step-daughter, Violet, grand-daughter, Anna, niece Sandy and all who had the chance to know her.

Between war, communism and a strife-torn family, Betty’s childhood in Budapest was very difficult. Escaping Hungary in 1956, she chose to come to Canada and after working a short time in Penticton, she moved to Oliver where she met Maynard. She worked many years in the fruit packing indus-try and met many of her friends while working. Betty was a loving wife, a great friend and cared for nature’s creatures. With her zest for life, she inspired many people. In spite of her often poor health, she chose to focus on the positive. Her motto was simply, “Life is beautiful.”

On her refrigerator door, a hand taped quote mirrored her view on life:

“Celebrate your life from the glow of the morning light to the sparkle of the evening stars.”

Betty did not wish a ceremony to mark her passing. She is with the Lord now.

Maynard thanks Dr. Willis and the many other doctors, nurses and home-care givers associated with the South Okan-agan General Hospital for their skill and the kindness Betty received during her illness. In lieu of flowers, if so wished, a donation could be made to the Canadian Cancer Society on Betty’s behalf.

Diane Tetreault will be competing at the BC Senior Men’s and Women’s Curling Championships in Kamloops next month.

Oliver curler prepares for big day The 2011 Tim Hortons BC Senior Men’s and Women’s

Curling Championships takes place in Kamloops from Feb-ruary 22 – 27, and Oliver’s Diane Tetreault will be compet-ing as the lead with Vernon’s Sherry Heath team.

The inter-regional playdowns were held at the begin-ning of January with teams from each zone competing for a coveted spot in the championships.

Diane has attended the provincials in the past but this is her fi rst time with the Heath team, and although they have only curled together three days she is confi dent they will

do well. Because her teammates are from Vernon, Pent-icton and Oliver, it makes it diffi cult to get together for practices or games prior to the championships, but they continue to curl in their own leagues and throw rocks when they can.

Each Canadian province and territory will be holding competitions around the same time as BC’s event in Febru-ary to determine which teams will represent their prov-ince or territory at the Canadian Championship Events. Tetreault is hopeful she and her teammates will be suc-cessful and represent BC at the Canadian championships later in the year.

The SOSS senior basketball girls made it 1-1 in league play last Wednesday matching up against Princess Mar-garet.

Down 9-2 early the Hornets clawed back but were still down 17-12 at the end of the fi rst quarter. A second quarter 10-point run gave the Oliver squad a 31-25 lead. The next half was a battle as the game was one of inches and was even tied 51-51 at one point.

Then two timely three-pointers from Ashley McGinnis gave the Hornets a momentum push and the girls wouldn’t

look back. The fi nal was 70-64. Jasmine Bassi was Oli-ver’s high scorer with 21.

It was great for the senior girls to fi nish the 50 years of rich history in the old gym on a winning effort.

The Hornets also travelled to Victoria this past weekend to the St. Michael’s University School’s annual 16-team Victoria Police Tournament. Although coming up short in all three games played, the Hornets played well. Two of the teams were AAA and were most exciting. The host SMUS proved was a game to remember, fi lled with all the drama possible, with a 68-64 ending.

Other scores were 62-41 against Ballenas and 53-47 against Port Alberni.

The Hornets hosted north basketball rivals Maggie for the last time in the old east gym at SOSS.

The Hornets jumped out to an early 18-point lead which they managed to hang on to for the remainder of the game as they were able to walk away with a 77-64 fi nal.

Parry Aulakh scored 17, Harey Dhaliwal, Baltej Gill and Dale Polychroniou added 13 points each in the winning cause.

On Thursday they travelled to Vernon to play in the Fulton Maroon Classic. In their fi rst game the Hornets al-lowed the Pleasant Valley Saints to jump out to a 20-point lead of 32-12. Some adjustments at half-time refocused the #2 ranked Hornets as they erased that lead to three points by the end of the third quarter. In the end the Saints had no answer for Parry Aulakh who poured in 25 points and Harey Dhaliwal who added 17. Raj Sidhu was perfect from the line, and he added 13 points to the winning cause.

In their next game versus College Heights of Prince George the Hornets saw themselves scoring only 18 points, whereas their opponent amassed 40 points by half. The half-time talk seemed to spark the Hornets as they were able to once again erase that lead in a hurry fueled by six three-pointers in a row by Parry Aulakh (who scored 27), allowing the Hornets to take the lead enroute to a 72-71 victory. Harey Dhaliwal added 14 and Dale Polychroniou added 12. In the semi-fi nal game the Hornets faced #3

ranked Sahali from Kamloops. This was a great test for the Hornets as they have been playing without their provincial team star Greet Gill for the past seven games. The Hornets jumped out to a quick lead, however Sahali clawed back to within three at half time. The Sabres were able to take the lead which see-sawed back and forth for much of the sec-ond half. Foul trouble hurt the Hornets as Harey Dhaliwal fouled out with 5 minutes to play. With one minute left the Sabres had a fi ve-point lead which the Hornets cut to within one with 30 seconds left to play, and that is as close as they would get as they ended up losing 79-74.

Parry Aulakh hit for 23, Harey Dhaliwal poured in 21 and Baltej Gill added 20 in the losing cause.

In their fi nal game the Hornets could not fi nd any rhythm versus the feisty Condors from Prince George. The game went back and forth with each team taking leads of up to seven points. Late in the game the Hornets seemed to seal the deal when they were awarded fi ve foul shots and the ball, yet they were only able to convert two out of fi ve and could not score on their possession. With 9.7 sec-onds left the Hornets led by one, however they turned the ball over and the Condors converted a layup to take a one-point lead with 2.4 seconds left. The Hornets last-second attempt was not good as they fell 74-73.

These were valuable games as the Hornets had to play the last fi ve minutes without key players as Parry Aulakh fouled out with six minutes to go in the fi nal game.

Our last home game is January 30 versus Summerland.
