When was the last time you were in love? I am notnecessarily talking about with an individual. People fall inlove every day,but for various reasons. I just lovemy new car,I love the artwork we picked for the family room, I love mynew therapist and so on.

Beyond 50 is all about love for this issue. I wanted peopleto share their stories on what they love and why. It was mylove for the 50+ crowd that made this magazine a reality. Ialways loved howmuchwisdom,knowledge and experiencethe 50+ group has to share,sowhy not provide a forum to dojust that.

This magazine has been a labour of love for me, and Iam happy that so many people have taken the time toenjoy it. I also hope that people who do read it, also takethe time to support the advertisers who allow me tomake it happen. They, too,are in love with what they do,orwhat they provide to you, the consumer. Small to medium-based businesses rely on repeat customers, word of mouth,little ads in magazines or newspapers, and social media tohelp grow their operations.We as business ownersmay“love”what we do, but we all have families we love and need us tosupport them. If you go into a place of business thatadvertises with us, tell them you saw their ad.They really dolove to hear that.

Sharon is the gorgeous bride on this issue, and yes she is50. I know she doesn’t even look close to that. Sharon wasfortunate enough to find love a second time around. Thestory of Sharon and Paul is real, not dramatic. They met, theyopened up their hearts and they were willing to take achance. The best part for me is they really make people seethere is hope for new beginnings, and that everyday peoplecan have a happy ever after. I think the message that hitshome for me is if you are willing to open up your heart, it canand will happen. I guess I should try it!

Love for sports,art,music, community and our jobs can be

just as passionate. We have articles thatwill either encourageyou or provide affirmation that the love for what you enjoy isa good thing.

Aswe get older,we also have to look atwhat love feels likewhen we lose it. I am referring to a loved one, a change incareer, or friendships. There comes a time when we need tosay goodbye because it’s a loved one’s time to leave thisworld; the person you used to be close to has moved or younow have different perspectives; or you’ve outgrown the jobthat you used to love. Theywill always have a special place inour hearts, but now that love occupies a different part.Whenyou let go, it opens up the door to new adventures, newfriends and, yes, a new career path.

As I write these words, tears roll down my face. They arenot tears of sadness, just tears about how exhilarating thefuture can be if people are just open enough to let it happen.As Devon and Dallas head into life as young adults,my wishfor them is that they see what the power of love can do. Thatthey experience love for that special someone, love for acareer and love for things that make life worth living.

(L to r) Devon, Laurel and Dallas.

Finding Your Loveand Happiness...

As my 27-year marriage was coming to an end, Iasked my daughter Sarah if she thought I would marryagain,and she said,“Yes!”Less than three years later,herprophecy came truewhen Imarried awonderful, lovingperson.

During the last half of 2010, I lost three loves. MyMom to cancer, my marriage, and a Golden Retriever,but I did not lose the desire to share my love.My faith,family and friends helped me through these tryingtimes. I even adopted another Retriever named Lucyfrom the SPCA.

A short time after my separation, a good friend andcoworker asked if I would like to play pickleball. I hadn’theard of this game, but I thought it would be fun tolearn andmeet newpeople. I didn’t think Iwas going tobe meeting that someone special, as I was somewhat“younger”thanmost people there,but I loved the gameand the wonderful people whowere playing it.Monthslater, as the gamemoved outdoors, I noticed a “younger”looking fellow join the game. I was drawn by hissense of humour and a full head of hair. After several

blessed abundantly, more than I could haveimagined.

Paul and I were married at the Lindon Housebyour pastor onMay 18,2013.Weboth stronglybelieve in the commitment of marriage.

The picture of the two of us was taken on aPrincess cruise to Alaska lastMay.Originallymysister and I were going to take our Mom andDad for their 50th wedding anniversary, butsadly myMom passed away before then.

So two years later my Dad arranged for us,four adult grandchildren andmyDad’s brotherfrom England for a fun family cruise.


months, Paul got up the courage toaskmeout after pickleball,however,he did it at the intersection ofGlenmore and High Road, when thetraffic light turned red. I said yes tolunch at Brandt’s Creek, just as thelightwas turninggreen.Noone coulddrive through until Paul ran back tohis car!

Weboth enjoyedour lunch and theconversation. As I did not perceive thisto be an actual date, I asked Paul if hewould like to marry again, along withmany other tough questions. I likedwhat he had to say, as he did not seemdiscouraged about getting remarriedafter his long-term marriage came toan end several years before. I allowedhim to pay for our meal, but reinforcedthis was a non-date.

Paul took this as a sign that I was notinterested, so he kept his distance.Three weeks later, we happened tobump into each other at the grocerystore. By the way, I always avoidedgrocery shopping on Saturdays, butthat day I needed to stop and pick upsome food for a friendwhowas helpingwith renovations onmyhouse.Paul hadbeen listening to the radio and heardthe Gospel Mission was in need ofturkeys for Thanksgiving, so he headedout to the store at the exact same time.I asked where his shopping cart was,and he quickly left to retrieve onewithout saying much else. As I wasabout to pay for my groceries, Paulcame up behind me with his shoppingcart with five turkeys for the GospelMission. He said he was going to amovie later and asked if I would like tojoin him. That was the start of ourdating relationship.

Less than three years ago I took myson Paul (yes, my son and husbandshare the same name) for shoes for myMom’s memorial, and he wore thosesame shoes for my wedding day. I alsoplanned the dream wedding that Ididn’t have the first time around,including wearing a white weddinggown and having my Dad walking medown the aisle. My Mom always saidyou never know what is around thecorner! I truly believe the more yougive; the more you receive. I have been

Association of BC, and we currently fund morethan 24 researchers and research teams.Of coursethis is done with your support. The success andprogress we make towards eliminating heartdisease and stroke, and improving the quality of

life for thousands of Canadians affected by these conditionsare due to the overwhelming generosity of the friends of theFoundation.

This June we invite you to make health, and love, last.Warning signs of a stroke Call 9-1-1 immediately if you

observe sudden, and sometimes temporary, onset of:weakness or numbness; trouble speaking; vision problems;severe and unusual headache; dizziness or loss of balance.

Stroke Risk Factors you can do something about:Highblood pressure (hypertension); high blood cholesterol; atrialfibrillation; diabetes; being overweight; excessive alcoholconsumption; physical inactivity; smoking and stress.

We never want to think about it happening to us. Wecertainly don’t want to think about it happening to someonewe love. But we cannot ignore the facts: in Canada, a strokeoccurs every 10minutes; in B.C.,stroke is the primary cause ofacquired long-term disability.

These are uncomfortable thoughts for sure, but this June,for Stroke Month, the Heart and Stroke Foundation wants totell you: There is life after stroke.Of course, the best lovestory is one in which stroke does not happen at all; thegood news is up to 80 per cent of premature heartdisease and stroke is preventable. But what is equallyimportant to know is having a stroke is not an ending, as somany people believe.With good rehabilitation and support,all stroke survivors recover to some extent and can go on tolead full, meaningful lives. At the Heart and StrokeFoundation, we want to give people more time to love, andbe loved.That’s why we have worked hard to improve strokecare in this province.The BC Stroke Strategy, our review andrecommendations for optimal stroke care,has found a homewith the Stroke Services of BC - a new agency in the ProvincialHealth Services Authority.

“Love is not what the mind thinks, it’swhat the heart feels.”

There are so many decisions to bemade, so much talk of medication,treatments, options and clinical discus-sions at the end of life, that for thosewhoselife is ending and for those saying goodbye,the details of dying can overshadow theexpressions of love and a life still being lived.

Someone once said that explaining how tolove at the end of life is like trying to teachsomeone to breathe. Breath comes in and goes out inregulated patterns - so does love.

There is theopportunity,perhapsasneverbefore,toexpressgratitude, ask for forgiveness, say thank-you, and release thepast, as the present is all there is. So much of what we haveheld onto is miniscule, when compared to facing a life that’snearing the end.

Love can be expressed in amyriad of ways;a gentle touch,a caring word, a fresh-baked cookie, a smile, the words“I loveyou,”or just a silent presence.

What is important, early on, is to have the meaningfulconversations about death, dying and wishes of theindividual about the funeral, legal discussions about wills,power of attorney, and other legal documents. While thisdiscussion may seem cold and unfeeling, it comes from aplace of love and caring, as wishes are fulfilled, time spentworrying can be re-directed towards the individual, not thedecisions that have to be made. Stress is relieved because a

daughter once commented,upon the death of her mother,“I

now have to learn how to have arelationshipwithmymotherwho is no longer here.” And yes,you can.

My dad and I would buy each other the worst, and silliestcards for any occasion and now 23 years after his death, I stillscour the card shops for the card that wouldmake him laughout loud.Somehow that makes me feel still very connected.

Love goes on in thought, in memory, in every good deed,and every story told.

Embrace the l i fe, t reasure themoments, and know that until that lastbreathe,we love and are loved.

Loveat theEndofLife

Submitted by Susan Steen


I love my patients. I have learned somuch from their collective knowledgeover the last 18 years. It’s a little ironic,because theMerriam-Webster dictionarydefines a doctor as “a learned orauthoritative teacher.” But who is reallyteaching who?

A while ago, a patient told me thatshe and her husband were celebratingtheir 60thanniversary.I askedher,“What’sthe secret?”She replied,“Love is a choice.”Her answer was confusing. I thoughtlove was a feeling. You know,when thesky looks bluer, nothing can upset you,and the person you are in love with cando no wrong?

I asked her to clarify this idea, andwhat she told me really made a lot ofsense. She explained that a marriage isa union of two individuals. They areeach living their own experience,basedprimarily on their values and pastexperiences. They can say or do thingsthat are hurtful to the other person.Theproblem is we are egotistical and weassume the words or behaviors have todo with us and then we take itpersonally. More often than not, it hasnothing to do with us at all! As my

patient explains,“that person didn’t getout of bed in the morning with thethought and goal of intentionallyhurting the other person.”

Now, as a chiropractor, this “love is achoice” theme made a lot of sense tome. Being healthy is a choice. You canchoose to love your body - feed it awell-balanced diet, exercise itregularly, and give it enough rest.You can also choose not to love it - feedit with junk food, deprive it of physicalexercise, and not give it sufficient rest.

One of the most important thingsyou can do for your body, though, is toattend to problems when they arise.From my 18 years of experience as adoctor of Chiropractic, I can say withcertainty that the longer the problem

has been there, the longer it takes toget better. I have heard all the excuseswhy a chronic health problem has notbeen addressed: time, money, orthought it would go away. Choose tolove your body and take care of it,because guess what? If you wear outyour body,where are you going to live?You are worth it!

A unique study developed by Kelton Research contrastedimages of different types of smiles. In the study, respondentswere shown images of people with varying tooth issues andasked to give their honest opinions about them. Results ofthe study indicated that people with a nice smile areperceived to have more desirable qualities than those withsmile problems, including attributes such as being happy,surrounded by loved ones, and professionally successful.

According to the Kelton study, the smile is whatpeople notice and recall when first meeting someone.Your smile can affect how others perceive you, including:• Making a Lasting impression:Nearly 1/3 of Americans saythe first aspect of someone’s face they typically notice istheir teeth, and 24% say that an attractive smile is whatthey remember the most after meeting someone.• Nice Smile = Success: When looking at images, thosewitha nice smile are perceived to be 45% more likely thanthosewith an unattractive smile to get a job. They are alsoseen as 58% more likely to be successful, as well as 58%more likely to be wealthy.• Love at First Sight:When it comes to attracting a possiblemate on a dating site, those with a nice smile are seen as57%more likely to get a date basedon their picture alone.• Unattractive Smile = Less Dates:Nearly two in five peoplewould consider not going on a second date withsomeone who has an unattractive smile.• A Nice Smile Goes a LongWay:Nearly three in four wouldbe more likely to trust someone with a nice smile thansomeone with a good job,outfit, or car.The “Biggest Turn-off” dating survey revealed attributes

that people find most appealing and least appealing in aromantic partner.When asked what they noticed first aboutpotential partners, 62% of respondents said a person’s smile.

A survey by the mega-dating site Match.com collecteddata from more than 5,481 singles and more than 1,000married couples, asking them a range of questions abouttheir preferences and revealed the following:

Men judge womenmost on: Women judgemenmost on:• Teeth (58 per cent) • Teeth (71 per cent)• Grammar (55 per cent) • Grammar (69 per cent)• Hair (51 per cent) • Hair (53 per cent)

Whether you are single, dating, or happily married, havinga nice smile is very important to how you are perceived byothers. A beautiful smile sets the stage for a great firstimpression with everyone youmeet.

At Dr. Duncan Chamber’s office each Smile Makeover isdifferent and highly individual. For some, a simple toothwhitening procedure may be all that is needed. For others,Porcelain Veneers are required to create a white, straight,even smile. Replacing metal fillings with natural-lookingporcelain fillings is another great option.There are numerouspossibilities; Dr. Chambers will help you understand if one orseveral procedures are needed to achieve your smile goals.

As Baby Boomers (I am one too),we learned that nothingcame easy, every nickel counted, and if we saved enoughnickels,we could buy a comic book and an Orange Crush onSunday. Our parents made sure we said “please” and “thankyou,”and whenwemisbehaved in front of guests, that "look"was usually all it took to put us back in line.We’ve grown up,and have seenmany changes in our society.

Big changes have happened in the funding for educationand health care. Having worked as an RN for 25 years ininternational hospitals, the Arctic, international waters, thedeep south, even during an air crash disaster, I’ve seen thegood, the bad and the ugly - on both sides of the border. Inthe last decade that I have spent caring for seniors in theOkanagan Valley, I see things that make my heart ache.

During the course of my work as a community nurse formy own home care agency, I visit seniors who live at home. Isee many who struggle to dress, bathe, cook and shop forgroceries. They are not managing well because they do nothave assistance.Families are spread out now, so gone are thedays where seniors could be cared for in the family home.Provincial and regional healthcare funding has simply not

kept abreast of the changing family structure.The focus for many decades has been on funding hospitals

and nursing homes. Federally funded researchers, sayhome care is a critical part of an integrated approach tohealth care. The same researchers say that when seniorsreceive care they need in their own homes, the cost to thehealth care systemoverall drops as hospitalization rates drop,and there are lower rates of placement into long-term carehomes. At least 15-37 per cent of people waiting in the

When seniors are not able to receivethe help they need at home,they start adownward spiral of health and fragility.Among OECD countries, Canada spendsmuch less than other countries onhome care services. Home care is acornerstone of the health care system,and not something that happens offthe side (Health Council of Canada,2012). If a senior does not qualify forhome care services from the healthauthority,home care companies,such asours, can provide this essential support.

So, love means doing two things...First, speak with your leaders in your

local health authority, and speak to yourprovincial MP about your concernsabout the inadequate funding forhome care. Second, call a private homecare agency for an assessment of yourloved one for services, before furtherdecline precipitates an early move to afacility.

A significant amount of research has been dedicated todiscerning which generation comes closest to having thecontentment of a Mona Lisa smile. Investigators from manycountries have examined, and continue to explore conceptsof happiness and success, with the former generallymeasured as an expectation versus achievement quotient.

Generally, the findings of this research point to a U-shapedcurve, with happiness lowest in the challenging child-rearingyears, but ultimately rising in older age. The finding of thehighest levels of happiness in the older years startles thosewith ageist attitudes.

Various studies - those done in the U.S. by Forbes andGallup among them - have found the generation born before1945, during the Great Depression and WWII, to be thehappiest. A new 2013 Canadian survey sponsored by ReveraCare Homes, in affiliation with the International Federationon Ageing, confirms it, with researchers declaring “the olderyou get, the happier you are.” Specifically, 65 per cent ofthe Canadian seniors surveyed were happy with theirlives, and over half felt very optimistic about aging.

Who came closest to the Mona Lisa smile? Those 75 andover, who were the most likely to say that age is just anumber! According to the Revera Report, authored bygerontologist Dr. Amy D’Aprix, 42% of respondents over age75 also claim that the best is yet to come.

What positive things did they look forward to aboutaging? Being comfortable in their own skin (68%); beingsurrounded by friends or family (72%); and, having time to dothings that are important to them (62%). Some researchersare even looking through their magnifying glass atcentenarians, in an attempt to identify a personality gene foroptimism.

The Boomers (those one in three Canadians andAmericans born roughly between 1946 and 1965) arepainted as a generation with very high expectations - whosesignature song is claimed to be “My Way” - in a recent

Harvard/MIT AgeLab study. However, their industriousness iscountered by high work and family stress, problems of thesandwich generation, and very volatile economicenvironment. One indicator of Boomer stress is theannouncement by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control thatthe suicide rate among middle-aged Americans rose ashocking 28 per cent in the past recession riddled decade.Further, the Boomers have lower self-rated health than theirparents’ generation, according to a study by Dana King, M.D.at West Virginia University. The Boomers’ obesity rates, likethose of their children, soar above those of their parents,while their physical activity rates are often shown to be farlower. Many new bank studies suggest that Boomers wishthey had been better able to save more for retirement, as wellas taken better care of their health.

Perhaps the Millenial generation can take a lesson fromtheir grandparents in subjectively redefining whatconstitutes the elusive state of happiness. The Millenials havebeen watching their overworked parents, and at least fornow, vow to preserve their leisure time and balance work andfamily. With relationships, health and a basic good standard

of income as a foundation, the addedinspiration, optimism and laughter oftheir grandparents may bring thebiggest smile of all!

Love is an interesting emotion. Ireally love my wife and kids. But I alsolove to drive my sports car on a twistyroad. But that’s a risky thing to do on astreet full of other cars.

Well there is a safer way to lovetwisty driving. It’s called autocross.

Autocross (in Canada it’s calledautoslalom) is a form of motorsportsthat emphasizes safe, low-cost competi-

tion and active participation. It is oftenreferred to as Solosport or slalom. Anautocross is a timed competition where

drivers navigate, one at a time, througha temporary course marked by trafficcones, rather than racing on a track withmultiple other cars - as in road racing oroval racing.

Autocross tends to place moreemphasis on car handling and driverskill than on sheer horsepower.Events typically have many classes,which allow almost any vehicle, fromeconomy sedans to purpose-builtvehicles, to compete. Speeds are slowerwhen compared to other forms ofmotorsports, but the activity level canbe much higher than even FormulaOne, due to the large number ofelements packed into each course.While speeds are no greater thanthose normally encountered in legalhighway driving, the combination of

concentration and car feedback createsan adrenaline pumping experience. It islike being in a movie chase scene, onlyyou are holding onto the steeringwheel instead of a box of popcorn.

Autocross courses are typically 40 to70 seconds in length. In addition tobeing a national-level motorsport in itsown right, autocrossing is a good wayto learn skills that will benefit any driver,especially in an emergency situation, asdrivers learn vehicle control andsharpen their reactions.

Autocross events are usually held inlarge paved areas like parking lots orairfields. The Okanagan British CarClub - www.obcc.ca - holds events inthe west parking lot of OkanaganCollege on KLO road on Thursdaysevenings.

The sport typically attractsordinary sports and sports-typecars used for daily transport-ation. Every time you plough alittle or get a little sideways, justvisualize your competition over-taking you by a car length or so.One of the reasons autocrossis such a difficult sport, but

also such a pure sport,from the driver ’sstandpoint, is thatyou can’t make upthis time. If you blowa corner in a roadrace, you may have afew laps in which to

make it up. But to win anautocross against good competition,you must drive nearly perfectly. Thedriver who makes the fewest mistakesusually wins!

angels among us

If angels are those among us who bring light and life andlaughter to all, then Karen Bardwell is no less than exactlythat. Born the second oldest of six children in Lynn Lake,Manitoba, in 1957, Karen’s life has been a continual journeyof encountering and overcoming personal obstacles,while always living an “others-focused” life.

Karen was born with a physical and developmental

disability, but has never let that slow her down. Whilegrowing up, she was encouraged to be active andindependent and began her lifestyle of helping others bylooking after her younger siblings and cousins.

Upon moving to Kelowna, Karen got involved as a candystriper at the hospital, did filing for the non-profitorganization, Earth Care, and volunteered at SunPointe,before getting connected to Tier Support Services and hersupport worker, Tessa Tesluk. Tier Support Services(www.tier.ca), is a local agency funded by Community LivingBC, that supports people with developmental disabilities ingetting involved in the community and finding meaningfulemployment or volunteer opportunities. Karen became Tier’sfirst ever participant in its then new employment program.

After getting to know her, Tessa found an opportunity forKaren at the May Bennett Wellness Centre working in thekitchen. She so quickly impressed the chef with what she wasable to do one-handed, that shortly after beginning, her jobcoach was told she no longer needed her support. Karenworked in the kitchen for seven years, preparing meals anddrinks for the residents, doing laundry, training newvolunteers, and anything else required of her.

In June of 2011, Karen had an accident at work, breakingher leg. Less than six months later, Karen was walkingunassisted and ready to get back to work. Although shewasn’t able to continue her former job in the kitchen, therewas a need for someone to be more involved visiting andplaying cards with the residents. Karen promptly learned howto play crib and jumped into her new role where shecontinues to be today.

When asked why she has been so intent on volunteeringand why she’s been at May Bennett for the last nine yearsalmost every day, Karen simply says, “I just love the peoplethere. And it gives me something to do, so that I’m not justsitting around.”

Angels, though sometimes disguised in small packageswith big smiles, do indeed walk among us.

More than 400 United Way supporters used a lot of muscleduring the fourth annual Valley First Plane Pull Challenge onMay 10. Getting together in teams of 12, they pulled a 33,500-pound Convair 580 for 20 feet along the Kelowna Flightcrafttarmac, as fast as possible - all entry fees and extrafundraising efforts going to support community programsthrough the United Way.

With event set-up, scoring, and team monitoring, it alsotakes a small army of volunteers to pull off the Plane Pull! Avery special duo of annual Plane Pull volunteers is LiamAllport and George Ross.

As in past years, Liam and George spent the entireday on the Kelowna Flightcraft tarmac helping cheer onthe teams, and holding up the Mackay banner for officialteam photos. Their involvement is born from a lifelongpassion for aviation. In the words of Liam’s mom, Megan Ross:

“My dad has been taking Liam to the airport to watchplanes since Liam was a wee lad, since he was one and a halfyears old. It’s a special time for them both and they definitelyhave a routine, starting with getting a snack. It used to be friesat the restaurant - so many that the people behind the

counter recognized them and gave them a ‘frequent fry card,’before Tim Horton’s came in, and now it’s bagels anddoughnuts. And then they watch the planes land and takeoff. Sometimes they park along the runway fence and othertimes watching from the upstairs observation area. They havealways shared a love of airplanes and all things mechanical,and they jumped at the chance to help out at the Plane Pullthis year and last year. Being around the planes and so closeto Flightcraft is exciting, but spending time together andbeing part of the Plane Pull is such a great experience forthem.”

Thank you, Liam and George!

Attending a live performance can bea lot like going on a first date. First thereis the apprehension - should I go? Do Iknow this performer well enough? Do Icare enough to commit an evening ofmy time and some of my hard-earnedmoney on them? Sometimes thedecision is much easier because you’vespent an evening with them before, oryou are already a fan and have beenlooking forward to a chance to seethem in a more intimate setting. Some-times the decision is a little tougher,more like a blind date where you haveto rely on third party referrals and havea lot of faith.

Once you have made your decision,you buy your ticket and show up for theevent, wondering what the evening willbring. At first, the artist and you, plus

several hundred others, start to get toknow one another a little better. A jokeis made early on to break the ice, afamiliar song is played to establish theconnection to the audience, a fewinsights into the artist’s life or creativeprocess are revealed. Then an ovation isgiven for a brilliant supporting instru-mental, or in appreciation of one of theartist’s biggest hits, and the artistresponds by lifting the energy level up anotch, which in turn generates moreenergy from the audience.

Audience energy is a magicalthing. It can convert an aging artistinto a teenager; an average musicianinto a virtuoso performer; and it hasthe alchemic properties to completelychange both the onstage and off-stage chemistry in the blink of an eye.As the performance progresses, theconnection with the audience deepenswith every song and story. And themore open and honest the artist is, thedeeper that connection becomes. By

the end of the evening, if all the starsalign, the love affair between the artistand the audience will be consummatedwith several encores and standingovations, and on some occasions, withan artist meet and greet, and autographsigning session after the event.

These are the performances respon-sible for those wonderfully nostalgicfeelings you get when you hear thatone song from the concert that takesyou right back to where you were, whoyou were with or what you were doingwhen you last heard it. For me, there aretoo many great memories to list themall. But a few highlights do come tomind, like the time I found myselfcompletely mesmerized by FernandoVarela, one of the world’s most talentedyoung tenors, singing his version of RoyOrbison’s “Crying.” I remember theincredible power of one particular notethat literally took my breath away. Ilooked around to see if anyone else wasas amazed as I was and saw the most

If you have ever had the opportunityto be on a set of risers as part of a malechorus and sang a song in the four-partharmony that characterizes barbershopmusic, then you will know why men ofall walks of life fall in love with thishobby and the joy of singing a cappella.

April 7-13, 2013, was proclaimedBarbershop Harmony Week, by MayorWalter Gray in Kelowna, as well as inmany other cities around the world, tomark the 75th anniversary of the Barber-shop Harmony Society. From its humblebeginnings in the U.S., the society hasgrown into an international society ofclose to 30,000 members, with chaptersacross North America and as far afieldas New Zealand, Australia, Sweden,

Germany and the United Kingdom.Chordial Invitation, the Kelowna

Chapter, has been in existence since1972 and continues to pursue thesociety’s goal of “building a better worldthrough singing.” The chorus regularlyentertains at retirement communitiesin Kelowna and the surrounding area.That old love song, “Let Me Call YouSweetheart,” never fails to bring back lov-ing memories. The Beatles hit, “Yesterday,”appeals to the 50s generation, while“Hello Mary Lou - Goodbye Heart,” isguaranteed to get everyone’s toes a-

tapping. Variety - the children’s charity,the Children’s Wish Foundation, and theSalvation Army Christmas Kettle Camp-aign have all benefited from themusical and active support of ChordialInvitation.

The chorus staged a productionentitled, “Barbershop and Brass - a Timeto Remember,” that traced the life andloves of a war bride from her days ofmilitary service in war torn England tothe peace of the Okanagan Valley. TheChorus has also performed for audi-ences throughout the Okanagan, includ-ing on the Island Stage in Kelowna’sWaterfront Park; at West Side Daze inWest Kelowna; at the PeachlandSenior ’s Center; and at the newParkinson Activity Center.

Every Monday evening, starting at6:30pm, the chorus rehearses at theParkinson’s Activity Center. Men of allages and musical skill levels are invitedto join in the camaraderie and the sheertherapeutic benefits that singing willbring. Gentlemen, come give a cappellaharmony a really good road test. You’llbe glad you did, and you can help us“Keep the Whole World Singing.”

For information call one of the twoMike’s at 250-769-1246 or 250-868-3796.

GUY BIRD, the Chorus Director, discoveredbarbershop harmony in Montreal back in theearly 70s and was hooked. He worked and lived

across Canada and over-seas and always found achapter that welcomedhim with open arms.Producing a barbershopshow in the National ArtsCenter for the OttawaChapter remains one ofBird’s many highlights.
