TOM SKINNER
About 20 years ago, Tom retired from school district #22 in Vernon, B.C., and began teaching courses to beginner photographers. He’s also recently returned to writing and picture framing, and has reopened Tom Skinner Photography. Tom and his wife Myna have become snowbirds, travelling to California, where Tom pipes with the Palm Springs Air Museum Pipe
Band. At home in Vernon, he plays with the Kalamalka Highlanders Pipe Band, and has participated in local tattoos. In Pomp and Circumstance (page 8), Tom takes us inside the Okanagan Military Tattoo, which showcases a variety of military bands, choirs and skills.
