A fiery fatal crash on Highway 3 in Princeton Wednesday, July 4 is being linked to a domestic assault in Osoyoos.

On Wednesday afternoon, RCMP in the Keremeos and Princeton areas were advised to watch for a suspect and vehicle as a result of a reported domestic aggravated assault which had occurred in Osoyoos.

Police were in pursuit of the vehicle, but say they had to cease because of the dangerous man-ner in which the suspect was driving. They alerted Princeton RCMP members further ahead.

Just outside of the Countryside Inn on Highway 3, eyewitnesses reported seeing a van driven by a male break through a police blockade, carry on down an embankment then come back up, flip and burst into flames on the highway.

At approximately 3 p.m., officers arrived on scene about one kilometre away from the block-ade and pulled the man out of the burning vehi-cle. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

The highway was subsequently closed and remained closed throughout the night.

The body of the suspect was removed from the scene shortly after 6 a.m.

The Abbotsford Police Department are han-dling the investigation as RCMP policy requires an outside agency to do so.

Osoyoos RCMP are continuing their investiga-tion into the reported assault of a 62-year-old woman who is still in hospital.

Highway 3 re-opened at approximately 11 a.m. on Thursday morning.

As of press time on Monday no updates were available.

COMMUNITY CALENDAR

In an effort to assist their community and raise funds for the Save Our Hospital Coalition (SOHC), members of the United Steelworkers Union (USW) Local 1-423 held a rally/ hot dog sale fundraiser in the Sandman Inn parking lot across from Princeton General Hospital.

Noting the recent tragedies in Babine and Prince George, president of Local 1-423, Pat McGregor said this is a subject that is dear to their hearts. “Having major industry and no hospital is a bad combination—It is very important that we have our hospital open.”

Joining off-shift Steelworkers and commu-nity members were representatives of the South Okanagan Boundary Labour Council, Brigid Kemp and Lilly Zekanovic, who came to town to show their support.

“We are here in support of all workers - union and non-union,” said Kemp. “Without healthcare and a hospital, how can we support the community?”

Assistant to the director of the West Canadian Steelworkers, Scott Lunny came to Princeton to present a cheque to Spencer Coyne, president of SOHC.

“Most of our members work in rural communi-ties like this,” said Lunny. “Our people work hard—we need to support them and our essential services. Congratulations to you for fighting back!”

The meetings and rallies, the people coming

out—the government has listened said Coyne, “You guys are the reason, thank you to the Steelworkers and to the community.”

The USW would like to extend their thanks to all who came out in support making the day a great success, and give a special thanks as well to Dawn Kastor, of Princeton Loonie Bin/Bakery for her donation to the fundraiser.

The Save Our Hospital Coalition believes that research is central to the development of a sustain-able health care model that will best serve the needs of the community.Underlying this research is the understanding that each rural British Columbia community is different and requires a unique model.Other communities in BC have encountered health care problems that are similar to those in Princeton and some of these communities have found solu-tions that work for them. Through research and in cooperation with these communities, SOHC intends to determine which strategies were most effective in the development of these models and incorporate those components that best suit Princetonʼs unique needs.Based on a recommendation from Janice Perrino, Mayor of Summerland, the SOHC executive visited the Keremeos Health Centre on May 29 and was given a tour of the facility by Walter Despot, former mayor and chair of the committee that developed the health care model for their community. Following this visit, Despot extended an invitation to Princeton and Area elected officials and business representa-tives to tour the facility. Subsequently, Brad Hope,

Area H Regional Director and David Rainier, repre-senting Princetonʼs business community, toured the facility on June 11.It is with good reason that Keremeos Health Centre was recommended as a successful model of quality health care. Over a period of 14 years, Despot and his committee developed and implemented a model of health care that meets the needs of their com-munity, incorporating Assisted Living, Residential Care, Mental Health, a Diagnosis and Treatment Centre, Physiotherapy, Laboratory, Public Health, and Educational facilities all under one roof. Despot described the facility as a “one stop shopping centre for health”. Overall impressions of the facility were very positive and everyone who took the tour agreed that it would be possible to include many aspects of the Keremeos Health Centre in the development of an improved health care model for Princeton.SOHC will continue to research successful models in other BC communities and will be sharing the results of their research with the public in the near future. If any Princeton and Area resident could rec-ommend a BC community that operates a successful health care model, please contact Ed Staples at 250-295-0822 or email at [email protected].

SELF-CARE & WELLNESS ADVICE from your Shoppers Drug Mart pharmacist

Hear ye! Hear ye! Summer is fi nally here! We have been looking forward to the longest days of the year. Here are some tips to keep your skin looking healthy in the summer.

• Antioxidants (vitamins C and E) decrease signs of aging by reducing free radical dam-age within the skin.

• Cummulative exposure to UV rays ages the skin. There is no such thing a s a “safe tan” — a tan is the skin’s natural bandage. To maintain skin health, always use products with SPF during daylight hours and reapply throughout the day.

• Keep yourself well hydrated. Pack lots of water with you when you have to go out into the sun.

• Visit your Shoppers Drug Mart pharmacist for a lot more friendly advice.

(NC)—Taking the right precautions against heat ill-ness has never been more important. Knowing your risks and preparing in advance will go a long way to keeping you, your family and those you care for safe.

While extreme heat can put everyone at risk from heat ill-nesses, the risks are greatest for older adults, infants and young children, people with chronic illnesses, people who work and exercise in the heat, and people without access to working air conditioners. Heat illnesses can include heat stroke, heat-related exhaus-tion, fainting, swelling of hands or feet, rash and muscle cramps. Heat stroke is a medi-cal emergency so call 911 if someone in your care has a high body temperature, is confused or unconscious or has stopped sweating.

Here are some tips for staying safe:• If you have a health condition or are taking medication, ask

your pharmacist or doctor if this increases your health risk in the heat.

• Visit neighbours, friends and older family members to make sure they’re cool and hydrated.

• Drink plenty of cool liquids, especially water, before you feel thirsty to decrease your risk of dehydration. Thirst is not

a good indicator of dehydra-tion.

• Reschedule or plan out-door activities during cooler parts of the day.

• Wear loose-fitting, light-coloured clothing made of breathable fabric.

• Never leave people or pets inside a parked vehicle or in direct sunlight.

• Spend a few hours in a cool place such as a tree-shaded area, swimming facil-ity or an air-conditioned spot such as a public building or shopping mall.

• Take cool showers or baths until you feel refreshed.

• Prepare meals that don’t need to be cooked in your oven.

• Block sun out by closing awnings, curtains or blinds dur-

ing the day.• Avoid sun exposure. Shade yourself by wearing a wide-

brimmed, breathable hat or using an umbrella.• Watch for heat alerts, and pay attention to poor air quality

forecasts, such as the Air Quality Health Index.You can find more tips at www.healthcanada.gc.ca/cc or

you can order some extremely helpful brochures about heat and health by e-mailing [email protected] or by calling 1-866-225-0709.

The BC Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) Acupuncture Day Application was drafted by Dr. Lide Han, the former chairper-son of the College of Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioners and Acupuncturists (CTCMA) and the pol-icy adviser to Qualified Acupuncturists and Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioners Association (QATCMA) and cosigned to Mr. Richard T. Lee, an old friend of TCM professionals, to submit to the BC government to be approved by the provincial governor.

MLA Richard T. Lee also held a forum with the participants to explore the future of BC’s TCM develop-ment and how to enhance its medical standards. He would like to build up a platform supported by a good rap-port, between TCM practitioners and patients.

BC TCM professionals have served the patients with their TCM treatment to promote the physical and mental health of their citizens. TCM profes-sionals have fought for their legal rights from 1996 to 2008. They have succeeded in getting MSP into the provincial health Insurance system. This move, which helps many patients fond relief from their suffering and illnesses, also reduces the financial burden of their medical expenses. This change marks a critical milestone in

BC’s TCM professional status. So far, there are over 1500 TCM practitioners and acupuncturists licensed to practice in the province.

While TCM has proved its effec-tiveness in treating sickness, with more TCM services available to the population, the government has real-ized that TCM can also play an effec-tive role in illness prevention. Because TCM can improve people’s health and quality of life, some cities in BC have started promoting “TCM Acupuncture Day” as an annual event. Up until 2011, the following six cities have proclaimed this event: Vancouver, North Vancouver, Burnaby, Richmond, Surrey and Victoria.

The most exciting news to date is that BC Government has officially designated June 3, 2012 as “BC TCM & Acupuncture Day.” BC is the first province in Canada to do so.

This proclamation indicates that the BC Government greatly appreci-ates the dedication and competence of TCM professionals in providing medical services and treatments to their patients. This event also affirms that TCM can play an important role in maintaining the health of the people in the province where TCM profes-sionals are encouraged and supported by the BC Government.

Council nominates Princeton ArtsThis is an award that honours and celebrates BC’s cultural diversity and is

presented to an organization, individual or business that contributes to enhanc-ing respect and embracement of the diverse cultures. Council resolved to nom-inate the Princeton Arts Council for the 2012 award, with Counc. Harkness to follow through with the components to do so.

Council granted permission to Mierau Contractors to work on the Zig Zag project on the weekends, noting that “it makes sense to allow it if they need the time—the project will be completed faster with less interruptions.”

Council ended with the approval of use of the town water and garbage truck for the Little Britches Rodeo.

Princeton, BC

A quiet, friendly community of more than 2,600 residents, the Town of Princeton boasts a beau ful outdoor environment, small town spirit and a great quality of life. Over the last several years, the Town has blossomed with the re-opening of the Princeton Copper Mine and the Weyerhaueser Mill.

PRINCETON - Following the public meet-ing that was held in Princeton on June 21 acting Mayor Jason Earle, Area ‘H’ Director Brad Hope, Anne Giardini, President of Weyerhaeuser Canada and Grand Chief Stewart Phillip met with Minister of Health Michael de Jong and Robert Halpenny, CEO of Interior Health last week in Kelowna on the concerns that have been expressed by the com-munity on the lack of emergency room coverage at the Princeton General Hospital.

Potential solutions for 24/7 emergency room coverage in Princeton were discussed and are being reviewed and considered by the Ministry of Health and the Interior Health Authority. Overall the meet-ing was very positive and the delegation is looking

forward to future meetings that are currently being scheduled.

“Our goal for this meeting was to find immediate solutions in the short term of having our emergency room open 24/7, says Acting Mayor Jason Earle, “and I am confident working with the Ministry of Health and the Interior Health Authority that we will be able to and then we can continue to work on medium to long term solutions.”

We were very pleased that Minister Michael de Jong and Dr. Halpenny were available to meet with us on very short notice, says Area ‘H’ Director Brad Hope. “It shows that they too are taking this situation very serious.”

Anyone walking down the streets of Princeton on the week-end of August 17-19 shouldn’t be surprised to hear fiddle tunes wafting across Bridge Street. Looking west onto Veterans Square they’ll see a big tent with a stage and people sitting in chairs tapping their feet or maybe even dancing in the street. Walking down Vermilion Avenue towards the Museum they may hear accordi-ons or ballads, or per-haps a song about sail-ing on the tall ships.

All of this and much more is the kind of music featured at the Fifth Annual Princeton Traditional Music Festival. Over 160 musicians will be in town that weekend, some of them local, many of them from the coast, and some from as far away as California.

The Festival begins on the evening of Friday, August 17 with the opening ceremony followed by a country dance on Veterans’ Way beside the Legion. The dance will feature a live band with fiddle, guitar and concertina. Everyone is welcome. There will be a caller to teach the dances so no experi-ence is necessary and people don’t even need to bring a partner. On Saturday and Sunday there will be music from 10 a.m., until 6 p.m., on two stages – one on Veterans Square and one in front of the Museum.

And it’s all free! No admission will be charged. The reason for this is that the Festival is run entirely by volunteers and the musicians are donating their talents.

This year’s Festival is special because it features lots of music from Eastern Europe. This is in honour of the many immigrants from that part of the world who came here in the first half of the twentieth century. Miners from many parts of Eastern Europe, including Slovakia, Croatia, Slovenia, Macedonia and Galicia, came to the valley, particularly Hedley and Princeton, to make a new life for themselves in a new country. They worked in the Hedley Mascot gold mine, the numerous coalmines in and around Princeton, Coalmont, Tulameen and Blakeburn, and the Copper Mountain Mine. Many came from mines to the east at Phoenix and Greenwood, and some came direct from their homeland. They all brought with them elements of their cultural background, including music, dance and song. We are very pleased this year to welcome Slovenian dancers, singers and accordion players, a Roma (gypsy) band, an Albanian accordion player, a Turkish band, a Doukhobor choir and other Russian singers, and music and song from the Balkans and the Ukraine. We thank them all for sharing their cultural heritage with us.

If you would like to help out at the Festival we would love to hear from you. Give Jon and Rika a call at 295-6010. You can find out more about the Festival on our webblog at princetontraditional.org

Shortly after word came of the death of B.C. historian and poli-tician Bill Barlee, my wife searched through her seemingly end-less trove of B.C. books and produced half a dozen of his original self-published quarterlies, known as Canada West magazine.

The earliest one is Winter 1970, where the publisher’s note advises that subscription rates were increasing 20 cents per year to $2.95. Subscriptions were up to more than 1,600 and counter sales were increasing, but costs were also up and Barlee refused to accept either display advertising or U.S. subscriptions.

The only colour pages in the issue are high-quality prints of four majestic paintings commis-sioned for the magazine. Irvine Adams’ scenes of sacred aboriginal sites in the Okanagan-Similkameen include The Gateway to Inkameep, where Barlee remarks: “Today that stream which once teemed with redfish no longer surrenders its once-valued harvest and the perimeter of the desert is gradually being eroded by man’s ques-tionable progress.”

With the typography of Old West wanted post-ers, Barlee provided tightly sourced accounts of B.C.’s legends.

“Lost gold mine at Pitt Lake” analyzes and adds to earlier accounts that begin with an aboriginal miner known as Slumach, who would periodically arrive in New Westminster to squander a small fortune in gold, then disappear up the remote tidal lake. Slumach was hanged for murder in 1891 and in the next 70 years, 11 more men would die trying to find his secret. A scientist as well as a storyteller, Barlee concluded that the area’s geology is wrong and the fabled gold-laden creek “probably does not exist.”

A passion for prospecting runs through the magazines, and hints at Barlee’s aversion to treasure-seeking Americans. They overran B.C. in historic waves to take gold, and according to Nelson Star

reporter Greg Nesteroff, Barlee believed they continued to loot Canadian heritage sites.

Nesteroff was inspired by Barlee’s work, and traced his lonely mission to restore the ghost town of Sandon, “the mining capital of the Silvery Slocan.”

Barlee bought a surviving block of buildings in an effort to make Sandon another Barkerville, but heavy snow collapsed them.

As tourism minister, Barlee found money to build repli-cas, and construction began on three.

But Barlee lost his Penticton seat to Bill Barisoff in the 1996 election, and today only half-built shells remain.

“He was still selling Sandon’s restoration as an eco-nomic saviour for the region when he ran for federal office in 2000,” Nesteroff writes. “But by then he was ridiculed for it, and finished a distant second.”

Barlee’s 1972 Canada West profile of the boomtown of Hedley would resonate in his career as an NDP MLA and cabinet minister in the 1990s. Hedley’s Nickel Plate and Mascot mines produced fortunes in gold, silver and copper before they played out, and Barlee led the fight to preserve their history.

Today you can tour the Mascot mine, a proud historical site with a spectacular climb up the rock face that serves as the Grouse Grind of the B.C. desert.

I first discovered Barlee as a reporter at the Kelowna Capital News in the early 1980s, when he did a weekly history show on CHBC television called Gold Trails and Ghost Towns. A bare-bones studio affair with tales and artifacts displayed for host Mike Roberts, the show lasted a decade.

Barlee didn’t lack courage, quitting a teaching career in Trail and Penticton in 1969 to start his magazine. On subscription fees and a few classified ads, he built a life’s work that allowed him to walk the boardwalks of history and the halls of power.

Wow, has this been one busy and exciting little community over the past couple of weeks!

First of all, I’d like to congratulate our most recently past editor, Michaela Garstin on her new position with the North Shore Outlook. Although the move is best for Michaela, given that is where her family and friends are, we here at the Spotlight will certainly miss her. Their gain is most definitely our loss.

The Spotlight like many of the smaller newspa-pers provides an excellent training base for report-ers and editors who are interested in acquiring the strengths and experience necessary for their media professions. I for one can attest to that, due to the fact that during my nine year tenure here I have met and enjoyed working with a great many of them.

I have lived in Princeton for the majority of my life. I grew up here and attended many of the events held here as a child as well as into my adulthood. The one thing that I have never been able to under-stand is those individuals who complain that there is nothing to do in Princeton...WHAT???

Excuse me for saying so, but are you kidding me? There is so much to do in this area that I honestly can not comprehend how someone could even say those words. The weekends have been packed with events... and out of 5,000 or so people—where are you?

Check out the papers, posters, radio, Leisure Guide, Tourist Guide or just ask someone for that matter. Most of the events are at no cost and if there is a charge, it is minimal and benefits the entire community.

Nothing to do in Princeton—come on, seriously!


Mystery Man Do you know him?Check next week’s Spotlight for the answer. Clues: 1) He is shown working on a bicycle. 2) Is a talented mechanic who works on anything needing repairs. 3) Unscramble these letters IIND and you will have his wife’s name. Last week’s mystery person’s were Jean Parolin and Arnt Vennevold.

Where have all the people gone?

Kudos to the Town officials who created our beautiful Town Square and Gazebo.

The July 1st weekend was bustling with activi-ties in the Square.

Not all small towns have a focal point like this to hold activities.

On the weekend the Community Band played for the celebration, end-ing with Oh Canada and Happy Birthday Canada, followed by the Back

Door Blues.Look forward to

music in the Gazebo every Saturday at 1 p.m., all summer by various groups.

The Community Band will be practicing every Monday evening from 6 to 8:30 p.m., in the Gazebo.

Come and enjoy the fun.

Shoot holes in this idea if that is all it deserves because I will-ingly admit that I know nothing of the objectives of Interior Health (IH) nor the running of a hospital. However, the recent letter from Dr.. Smith would seem to clearly lay out the fundamental reasons why the Princeton General Hospital (PGH) will not see the return of a full functioning Emergency Operating Room.

In many countries of the world our hospital facility would be viewed as a “jewel” of immeasurable value yet IH sees downsizing this asset as the only option under the current policy of centraliza-tion of health care. A centralization policy that is reported to require a billion dollars for a completely new hospital facility in Vancouver to replace St. Paul’s and a massive expansion for Royal Columbian Hospital in New Westminster. Facility upgrades that are necessary to accommodate increasing patient numbers, an obvious result of centralization, and that are projected to take at least five years to complete.

At the same time, the waiting lists for various surgeries and medical procedures are unacceptably lengthy (knee replacement and MRI to name two) — a situation that, in many cases and after many years, shows little or no sign of improvement — a situation that is forcing patients to travel out of province or even country for timely treatment.

So, make PGH a “Specialty Hospital” for knee replacements for example. Less than a million dollars would probably cover the upgrades required to the existing ER facility and the recovery rooms. Patients would be willing to travel to Princeton for a long awaited surgery where recovery rooms are available. The whole thing could be up and running in six months and the ER would be available for all doctors to use, not just the knee surgeon.

Attracting a knee surgeon to Princeton is one obvious obstacle. With a hospital “dedicated” to a specific speciality however attract-ing one and an anesthetist, might be more straightforward. In deed other general practitioners who want the opportunity to use an ER in their practice might also be attracted to PGH thereby solving the doctor shortage issue as well.

Viewing PGH, and other hospitals in the Interior of B.C. for that matter, as assets and not as liabilities could be an expedient and cost effective way of solving a number of the health care issues in the province.

Yours sincerely,Brian FitzGeraldPrinceton

Clarifi cation from Interior Health

Thank you for the invitation to attend the June 21 forum to discuss the current Emergency Department hours at Princeton General Hospital and to share information on rural health care.

I wanted to take this opportunity to provide clarification regarding one of the topics that arose at the forum, and has been covered subsequently in this paper - The care provided to a Princeton resident who unfortunately suffered a heart attack on June 20. I am glad to hear this individual is on the road to recovery.

When a patient comes to Emergency, the first action by the attending physician is to stabilize the patient before beginning consultations with physicians at other sites in order to determine where the patient may need to receive more specialized care. I would like to assure the community that appropriate medical care was pro-vided at Princeton General and as soon as the patient was stabilized, consulta-tions began among BC Bedline, BC Ambulance Service (BCAS), and phy-sicians in Penticton and Kelowna to determine the patient’s further needs, required care enroute, the appropriate receiving hospital and the method of transport.

Transferring patients with serious medical conditions requires the assis-tance of skilled medical professionals who can provide care to the patient enroute. In rural communities such as Princeton, paramedics are trained to provide basic life support; however, transferring a patient who has suffered a heart attack requires more special-ized care. Interior Health implemented High Acuity Response Teams (HART) for this reason; team members have the necessary advanced training to support

these specialized transfers and aug-ment BCAS’s Critical Care Transport Program.

In this particular situation, the BCAS Kamloops-based helicopter was already responding to a critical patient. In consultation with the cardi-ologist, the Penticton HART team was selected and was on the road within 10 minutes of being assigned the call. Contrary to what was reported, the patient was prepared for transport and in the ambulance back to Penticton within 34 minutes of the HART arrival at Princeton.

I certainly understand that this has been a very emotional time for the res-ident and his family, as well as causing some concern in the community.

I hope this clarifies for your read-ers the details about the timing of the deployment of the HART team in this particular instance, as well as the partnerships involved in ensuring patients receive the right care in the right place.

Sincerely,Andrew Neuner, VP Community

Integration, Interior Health

As summer is quickly approaching, so is the 2012 Similkameen BBQ King. This truly unique Similkameen wine and food experience is a competition where 8 fea-tured chefs compete for the title of Similkameen BBQ King or Queen. The event is on July 14th from 5-8pm at the historic Grist Mill & Gardens in Keremeos.

The 8 competing chefs will create unique dishes using ingredients from the Similkameen Valley. Attendees at the event will go from station to station enjoying the foods prepared by each chef, along with Similkameen wines specifically paired to go with each dish, and then all attendees get the opportunity to cast their vote for the Similkameen BBQ King or Queen.

Sara Harker, President of the Similkameen Wineries Association explained, “This event truly is an extraor-dinary evening and a very special Similkameen experi-ence. It features 8 of the top chefs from the region, who create amazing dishes for all of our guests to enjoy. Each dish is paired with wine from one of our 8 Similkameen Wineries Association member wineries. The Grist Mill provides a stunning venue for the event!”

Chef Chris Van Hooydonk from The Sonora Room, reigning Similkameen BBQ King, will be back again to defend his honour. Chef Chris Remington from the Penticton Lakeside Resort, who won for best wine and food pairing, will also be back to try again for another trophy.

Harker continued, “Our 2011 Similkameen BBQ King event placed second overall in the ‘Best food/drink experience of the year’ category for the Exceptional Eats Awards (Okanagan) from readers of Eat Magazine, and we expect this to be another wonderful event.”

In addition to the amazing food and wine at this event, there will also be live entertainment by local musicians Destin and Rob, plus a silent auction that is a partial fundraiser for the Grist Mill, which is a Heritage BC site. Harker expanded, “We are starting to get in some absolutely amazing prizes for our silent auction, includ-ing an awesome prize donated by Savour Magazine - an iPad and a 1-year subscription to the digital version of Savour Magazine. Terrafina Restaurant has also donated an amazing gourmet multi-course wine-paired 8-person cooking class lunch with Chef Natasha and there are many other extraordinary silent auction items.”

Fifteen Princeton Kokanee swimmers attend-ed the recent Kelowna Ogopogo swim meet and placed 9th overall out of 17 teams. The performance was impressive as 303 swimmers faced off including many elite competitors from Vancouver clubs. The Kokanee swim-mers clocked 30 personal best times during 50 races. The club managed to slash a combined 3 minutes 51 seconds from best times earned only two weeks previous at the Merritt Otter swim meet. Despite 12-hour days the swimmers excelled showing coach Lindsay van Genne that her endurance training and gruelling practice sets are reaping rewards.

Four Princeton swimmers proved that “hard work equals results” achieving personal best times in every event they swam: Maddy Fulton, Gillian van Genne, Norman Anderson, and Owen Bartlett.

Division 6 boys Medley Relay placed 2nd overall with Owen Bartlett, Nick Cimbaro, Norm Anderson, and Aidan Neilson.

Girls division 2 relay team placed 4th with Abbegael Fulton, Gillian van Genne, Addison van Genne, and Kiaira Anderson.

Many Kokanees had impressive individual per-formances:

Maddison Fulton dropped 25 seconds in her 100 metre free from preliminary heats to finals.

Owen Bartlett took on the meets stiff competi-tion with flare. Owen did well in a tough division despite the fact it is his first year of competitive racing.

Kiaira Anderson made finals in her 50 free with a new best time of 51.98 seconds.

Norm Anderson placed 3rd in 50 fly with a time of 42.00 a new best time. He also placed 6th in 50

back, 5th in 50 free, and 8th in 100 free with a time of 1:25.78.

Aidan Neilson placed 8th in 50 breast with a time of 51.43 seconds and 100 IM with a time of 1:36.94. IM or “individual medley” includes all 4 strokes: fly, back, breast, and free. In divisions 1-3 swimmers must swim 25 metres of each stroke. In division 4 the IM distance doubles to 50 metres of each stroke.

Ainsley Neilson held her own in the 200 IM, showing true metal and attacking each stroke with great energy.

All the Princeton competitors swam impres-sively and were great ambassadors for their club and town. Congratulations Kokanees!

A number of enthusi-astic mountain bike rid-ers, hikers and equestri-ans enjoyed the China Ridge Trails System, followed the KVR with its tumbling Tulameen river freshet, peddled thru dark, cool, historic railway tunnels and trav-eled over scenic Forest Service Roads around the Princeton area on Saturday, June 16. The ride was organized, by a group of local China Ridge Trails Society members, as a tribute to Duncan Mackenzie, a young man from Whistler BC, who con-tributed so much to the mountain bike trails system and Bike Park here, over the past summers.

Duncan died tragically in an avalanche this past winter. We were joined by his family members, to celebrate his life, with a plaque unveiling at the Bike Park.Many mountain bike riders also gathered on a scenic spot on the Rail Trail to pay tribute to the great man, with another memorial plaque set on a giant boulder. Duncan was a man who touched many with his passion for the outdoors, his vision for developing our area, his knowledge and exper-tise in working the terrain. He left a legacy which we enjoy now and which many will appreciate for years to come.

The finale for a great day of exertion, exhilara-tion, and camaraderie came in the form of a delicious BBQ at the Bike Park. Adults visited, rehashing the trails challenges and victories, while kids entertained us by riding the variety of banks and ramps. Great food, new friends, tales of the trail, plans for the next ride, all made for a memorable day.

A group of mountain bikers from Penticton swore they would return with reinforcements, now that they have had a guided tour of our trails system. They raved about Princeton’s single track bike trails, the friendliness of our community and the beauty of our scenery. Sometimes it takes the perspective of visi-tors to make us take a second look at how wonderful this area is and how lucky we are to call it home.

The age of Graffiti (50’s)—boys lining the streets with their hot-rods itching to take a pretty girl for a ride all while listing to music that just makes you want to get up and dance.

With a pure love for the age and the vehicles, thanks to the efforts of Mac MaDonald and her crew, once a year, Bridge Street in Princeton becomes the setting for just that.

Twelve years ago, MacDonald approached Otto Coers, at Princeton A&W with her idea for a car show and fundraiser, they joined forces and as they say, “the rest is history.”

Their first show had 27 cars and has grown larger each year. “The excitement brings people to the streets said MacDonald, It’s so nice to see the work, the love that goes into it and how beautiful the cars are.”

The 12th annual Princeton and A&W Show n Shine took place this past Saturday with over 140 entries of cars, trucks and motorcycles that residents could feast their eyes upon.

Collectible car enthusiast, Councillor Kim Maynard welcomed participants and opened the show at 10 a.m., in Veteran’s Square.

Enthusiasts from Princeton, Chilliwack, Langley, the Island, Merritt and all throughout the Okanagan came out to show off their prized possessions.

Thanks to the participation and donations from local merchants, participants in the show were treated to prize draws.

Hot dogs and hamburgers from A&W with the loan of Cooper’s barbecue, along with various vendors serving treats for the day kept tummies full while folks danced to the sounds of the Allenby Road Band.

Princeton General Hospital is a yearly beneficiary of the proceeds from the show, however as the show has grown so too has the beneficiary list. Recipients this year will include sending kids to camp and pro-viding items to the Princeton Highway Extrication Society to help with the completion of purchases from their wish list.

Co-ordinators Mac and Frank MacDonald, John Draper and Otto Coers, extend a huge amount of thanks to their sponsors; A & W Princeton, Lordco, Mac’s Auto Parts, to their volunteers; those taking registrations, parking the cars, manning the hot dog and hamburger sales, the Ambassador Candidates and to the local merchants for their donations.

Everyone that helps makes this such a success says Mac MacDonald, “it’s a lot of fun and you bet we’re doing it again next year!”

Over 140 entries lined Bridge Street on Saturday, July 7 for the 12th Annual Princeton and A&W Show n’ Shine. Participants were surprised when the * sea of blue appeared taking in the car show on their way to cool off in Princeton’s Water Park. * Photo Below: This sea of blue is a group of Young Life Camp participants from Edmonton.

The sun and heat didn’t deter these die hard kids from having a suc-cessful rodeo, with bar-rel races, cattle roping, bull riding, and pole racing. Thanks to Jamie Pay-ton, Jennifer Bernard and her band of vol-unteers, and the many volunteers who helped make it fun. Thanks as well to BC Little Britch-es Rodeo Association.

ROYALTY - 2012/13

Ambassador candidates had a little fun before coronation (left) and a few little ones just couldn’t resist having their photo taken with the princesses in the park. Top photo: BC Youth Ambassador team along with visiting roy-alty from across the Okanagan spent a fun filled day in Princeton.


District 21.Ambassador Co-ordinator, Lori Thomas gave

her thanks to all who helped with the program and added a special thanks to Taylor Robillard and Felicia Northway for their extra help during her ill-ness this past year. She then went on to give out the Ambassador Awards. Most Improved was awarded to Ciara Bamford. The Princeton Exam award went to Emily Allison and Keisha Miller. The Talent and Public Speaking award was presented to Megan Pateman and the Fashion Show award to Taylor Gibb.

The Friendship Ambassador position is awarded to a candidate by her peers—the recipient this year is Taylor Gibb.

Megan Pateman is Princeton’s Youth Ambassador for 2012/13 and her partner is Vice Ambassador Taylor Gibb. Congratulations ladies.

Larry Saidman and friends will present a live concert this Saturday at 1p.m., downtown at the square. It’s part of a series of concerts sponsored by the Princeton Arts Council.

This week’s concert will feature a wide variety of music, from folk, to coun-try, light jazz, rock and pop—using mostly finger style guitar. There will be songs you know, and many that you don’t….but would like to!

Performing with Larry will be master bassist Rick Law, of BackDoor Blues Band and Allenby Road fame. And maybe a special surprise guest or two.

As a special treat, the second set will introduce to Princeton audiences a brand new band, “Maturity Rules”, featuring Corry Oerlemans and Barbara Bushewsky (formerly from Jazz on Three Eh). They’ll play and sing a number of great old standards, such as “Begin the Beguine”, Canadian Sunset”, and Fat’s Waller’s “Ain’t Misbehavin”, using piano drums, and trumpet..

And best of all…..it’s free!

DEDICATION CELEBRATION

The Royal Canadian Legion George Pearkes Branch 56 celebrated the 50th anniversary of the dedication of the current Legion building this past Saturday.A mega-meat draw was held along with a barbecue attended by chefs Rick and Sandi Lawlor pictured with Legion president Wayne Terepocki (right)The evenings entertain-ment was provide by Total Gin.



CAPRICORN: A crisis hits at work, but you take charge and save the day quickly. Bravo, Capricorn. A fi nancial glitch turns out to be a blessing in disguise.

AQUARIUS: A coworker isn’t cutting it, but it’s not for you to say, Aquarius. Leave that to someone higher up the food chain. A fi nancial matter is put to rest.

PISCES: Time is of the essence, Pisces, and you must work quickly to clean up a mess. No, you didn’t make it, but you must clean it up for progress to be made.

ARIES: You don’t like surprises, but several are in store. Receive them with open arms, Aries. A chunk of change saved for a rainy day comes in handy.

TAURUS: A friend’s erratic behavior mystifi es you. Overlook it and question it later, Taurus. A business relationship is put to the test, and you come out smiling.

GEMINI: The time has come for you to settle old debts, Gemini. Start with that friend who could use a helping hand. The pieces to a puzzle begin to come together.

CANCER: Face it, Cancer. A friend bailed on you yet again. Stop making excuses for them and look for support elsewhere. A windfall fattens your bank account.

LEO: Relationship issues are resolved, and passion burns bright. Ooh-la- la, Leo. A dream comes true for a family member, and you benefi t as well.

VIRGO: Sunny days are here again, Virgo. Make every moment count. Old photos provide insight into a family dilemma and make the response to it clear.

LIBRA: Too many slips of the tongue occur at work. Work to keep yours in check, Libra. Adding fuel to the fi re is ill advised. A memento inspires a trip.

SCORPIO: You’re not one to toot your own horn, Scorpio, but it’s required. You need to make your talents known in order to compete. A health crisis ends.

SAGITTARIUS: Opulent surroundings ease away the tensions, allowing for extraordinary progress. Truth is hard to come by at home. Don’t force it. Just wait, Sagittarius.
