Out with the old, in with the new OCP Municipality announces major community plan review Vivian Moreau News staff

Sharon Tiffin/News staff

Shannon Phillips, co-founder of the Seed Ladies, is surrounded by Bunny Bags she is putting together for the Mustard Seed Food Bank to hand out to children.

Oak Bay hops to help Mustard Seed Seed Ladies collect goodies for Bunny Bags for kids in need Erin McCracken News staff

Shannon Phillips’ living room looks like the inside of an Easter basket, complete with stuffed toys and chocolatey goodness. The Oak Bay resident has been collecting Easter goodies from within her community that will be distributed to children whose parents rely on the Mustard Seed Food Bank for help. Of the 300 goodie bags that Phillips is hoping to assemble, 190 are ready to go. Phillips is hopeful more people will come forward with chocolate donations so that more children will wake up to Easter treats on April 8. “My kids are five and seven and Easter is a huge, huge deal,” she said. “The Easter Bunny leaves eggs in the yard, and there’s always a toy.”

A look ahead

Singing a Lasting Song A Spirituality of Aging. “...we cannot live the afternoon of life according to the program of life’s morning” – Carl Jung Do you have questions about what the second half of your life offers? Do you sense there is a new purpose emerging for your life now? The second half of life includes new challenges, but most especially opportunities for spiritual growth. In this 5 week series we will engage with archetypal stories from Scripture and other sources, with poetry, art and music as we reﬂect together on what brings meaning and new energy to our aging. Date & Time: Tuesday afternoons April 17 to May 15 from 2-4 PM Location: Oak Bay United Church, Granite & Mitchell Leadership: Dr Judy Vestrup, educator, physician and spiritual director There is no charge but registration is required 250 598 5021 ext 0 or oakbayuc@shaw.ca • www.oakbayunitedchurch.ca

Just don’t say the words “secondary suites.” When it comes to outlining what a renewed official community plan might include for Oak Bay, Coun. Pam Copley, chair of the review’s working group, shies away from bringing up secondary suites. “I don’t want alarm bells to go off,” she said in a telephone interview following the March 26 announcement that the municipality has launched a major overhaul of its OCP. But she did concede that a stormy April 2011 public meeting at Monterey recreation centre on legalizing secondary suites attended by 200-plus was the catalyst for the review. “It was clear to us that we (council) were out of sync in many ways: communication, transparency and just (providing) information,” she said. Residents have been calling for an OCP rewrite for years: at council meetings, at public meetings, at Oak Bay’s infrequent protests and in letters to the editor of Oak Bay News. Oak Bay adopted its first OCP – a planning and development guiding policy – in 1981 and it hasn’t been revised since the mid-1990s. The current plan doesn’t address a number of issues, Copley said. Climate change action – something the province has mandated Oak Bay to implement – isn’t mentioned nor does it include 1994 provincial heritage preservation amendments, a particular concern for Copley. “Those need to be embedded in the OCP,” she said. Oak Bay resident and heritage advocate Ewa Lupin agrees. She led a demonstration at city hall last year protesting the potential subdivision of a heritage-designated property in her Runnymede Place neighbourhood. “I certainly hope that during the 18-month review of the Official Community Plan, the council will pay considerable attention to the preservation of Oak Bay heritage,” she said. How to allow seniors to age in place, whether in their own or in care homes, also needs to be examined, Copley said. The OCP review could take up to two years to draft and will cost between $120,000 to $140,000. Under the direction of a five-member committee, which will include two residents, a consultant will be hired to facilitate the project. Community meetings in which residents can make suggestions as to what should be included in the new document will start this fall and continue through January and February 2013. vmoreau@oakbaynews.com

Vivian Moreau A team of Oak Bay arborists is nearing the end of its annual tree-pruning campaign. Since January, two staff and three contract arborists have been trimming limbs and branches of boulevard trees in the municipality. Recently the crew was on Cranmore Road across from Oak Bay High sprucing up the

70-year-old linden trees in that block. “We put that stretch of road on the schedule because those trees hadn’t been done for seven or eight years and they were getting low,” said Oak Bay’s chief arborist Chris Paul. The team used a bucket truck to reach halfway up the 13-metre high trees. Each year the arborist team targets a neighbourhood as well as particular streets. In addition

to Cranmore Road, this year it was the St. David, St. Patrick and Oliver Street blocks and the poet streets of Chaucer, Byron and Milton that heard the sound of saws and chippers. During the project, the team did take down a Garry Oak on Oliver that when they started to trim they discovered was completely hollow. Tree pruning wrapped up on Friday, March 30. vmoreau@oakbaynews.com

Committing crime for coins Immunizations Three apartment block laundry rooms were the target of thieves in Oak Bay last week. On March 29, thieves entered the laundry room in an apartment complex in the 2200 block of Cadboro Bay Rd. sometime overnight. The coin dispenser to one of the dryers was damaged. Police say it appears that the person entered the building through the front door by being let into the building by an unsuspecting tenant. The Saanich Police Foren-

sic Identification Section attended to process the coin dispenser for potential fingerprints. The following night, culprits entered a laundry room in the 2100 block of Haultain St. The laundry room door was unlocked and the thief forcibly removed two coin dispensers. After the crime, the coin dispensers were handled by other people in the apartment complex which compromised any forensic evidence that may have been left behind,

said police. The property manager was unable to determine if any money was stolen. On April 1, someone entered the rear door to an apartment complex in the 1200 block of Newport Ave. The thief shouldered the laundry room door to gain access to the room. Two coin dispensers were damaged during the break-in. Estimated repair cost for the two coin dispensers is $600. editor@oakbaynews.com

Vision Matters Healthy Eyes. Doctor Delivered.

Protect your eyes from UV radiation The sun supports all life on our planet; however, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life giving rays also pose dangers. The Principle danger is in the form of ultraviolet (UV) radiation. UVradiation is a component of solar energy, but it can also be given off by artiďŹ cial sources like welding machines, tanning beds and lasers. UV radiation is divided into UV-A, UV-B and UV-C. UV-C is absorbed by the ozone layer and does not present any threat (man made sources of UV-C, like electric welding arcs, are very harmful to the eyes, if you do not use proper protection). Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not true of UV-A and UV-B. ScientiďŹ c evidence now shows that exposure to both UV-A and UV-B can have damaging long and short term effects on your eyes and vision. If you are exposed, unprotected, to excessive amounts of UV radiation over a short period of time, your are likely to experience a condition called photokeratitis. Like a â&#x20AC;&#x153;sunburn of the eyeâ&#x20AC;? it may be painful and you may have symptoms including red eyes, a foreign body sensation or gritty feeling in the eyes, extreme sensitivity to light and excessive tearing. Fortunately, this is usually temporary and rarely causes permanent damage to the eyes. Long term exposure to UV radiation can be more serious. ScientiďŹ c research has shown that exposure to even small amounts of UV radiation over a period of many years may increase your chance of developing a clouding of the lens of the eye called a cataract and cause damage to the retina, the nerve-rich lining of your eye that is used for seeing. Damage to the lens or the retina is usually not reversible. The effects of UV radiation are cumulative. The longer your eyes are exposed to UV radiation, the greater the risk of developing conditions such as cataracts in later life. Therefore, you should wear quality sunglasses that offer good protection and a hat or cap with a wide brim whenever you are working outdoors, participating in outdoor sports, taking a walk, running errands or doing anything in the sun. To provide protection for your eyes, your sunglasses should: block out 99 to 100 per cent of both UV-A and UV-B radiation; screen out 75-90 per cent of visible light; be perfectly matched in color and free of distortion and imperfection; and have lenses that are gray, green or brown. If you spend a lot of time outdoors in bright sunlight, wrap around frames provide additional protection from harmful UV radiation. Be sure to see your Doctor of Optometry regularly for a thorough eye examination. It is a good way to monitor your eye health, maintain good vision and keep up to date with new advances in UVprotection.

Tomorrow marks the last day of vaccines for people who may have come into contact with Hepatitis A from Fairway Markets in Quadra Village. After a food handler with diagnosed with the disease, the Vancouver Island Health Authority advised two groups of people to get vaccinated as a precaution: employees of the store and customers who consumed non-pre-packaged deli food, purchased March 18, 19, 20, 22, 25 or 26. No other food at the grocery chain has any risk of contamination. Hep A vaccine and immune globulin can prevent Hep A virus infection, but only when given within 14 days of exposure. Symptoms include fever, tiredness, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain, followed a few days later by dark-coloured urine, light-coloured stools and jaundice. The clinic will operate from 1 to 4 p.m. today (April 4) and Thursday at the Victoria Public Health Unit, 1947 Cook St. High demand for the vaccine over the weekend prompted VIHA to extent the clinic days. rholmen@vicnews.com

OUR VIEW

Gallery idea on the money If Sidney on the Saanich Peninsula can promote itself as a Booktown, with anywhere from nine to a dozen different book stores at any given time, there’s no reason Oak Bay can’t do the same to promote its art galleries. With seven galleries in close proximity, the owners have chosen to band together – rather than compete – to help each other, and surrounding businesses, attract customers. The group has a good start by just agreeing to work together – pooling resources for advertising and sending a consistent message to consumers from their individual shops. Maintaining diversity in their galleries helps bring art lovers to the area, and other businesses can help keep them coming back by providing interesting products as well as the excellent customer service for which Oak Bay stores are known. Of note is Oak Bay council’s support for the effort without question. There was no debate, or worry that council would be seen as supporting one type of business over the other, only the clear vision that if we all work together toward a common goal, Oak Bay can achieve a vibrant, evolving and busy core – something that even the city of Victoria has found challenging in recent economic times. The spin-off from this new approach should spread further than the Village. As Nigel Hayes, owner of Side Street Studio, pointed out, many local artists rely on the income they receive from galleries to survive. As their income increases, so will their spending. With support from local art galleries and local buyers, we can hope the artists, in turn, will support other local businesses, purchasing not only their art supplies here, but their groceries, clothing and other daily necessities as well. While this approach is not for every business, it can certainly succeed for the galleries. Working together, using innovative ideas and advertising to help spread your message and supporting those around you will go far to help all of the businesses in Oak Bay.

Of course van Dongen drove himself out of cabinet long before Clark returned. Chronic speeding by a public safety minister is a tough sell. I asked Cummins about the reluctance of key cabinet ministers Kevin Falcon and George Abbott to confirm they are running again. His aw-shucks friendly-grandpa modesty precludes speculation, but he did allow it’s “maybe a comment on the state of affairs in the Liberal caucus.” Reporters started surveying government MLAs after Falcon and Abbott kept their options open for 2013. For the record, fellow ministers Terry Lake, Shirley Bond, Pat Bell, Mary Polak, Rich Coleman and Stephanie Cadieux all said they are firmly on Clark’s election team. Independent-minded backbenchers Bill Bennett and Kevin Krueger also saluted the B.C. Liberal banner. Randy Hawes allowed that he’s 65, so if he leaves it will be for the golf course. As I was talking with Cummins, B.C. Conservative advisor Randy White was assuring the Abbotsford News that more defections are coming.

Be on the lookout for pop-ups Pop-ups – and I am not referring to a breakfast tart or dangerous threats on your computer – I am referring to a common problem here in Oak Bay: sidewalk pop-ups. They can occur at any time of the year but generally emerge after intense and powerful wind storms push up tree roots. A few weeks ago a couple were out for a Sunday stroll along the sidewalk on Beach Drive just west of Oak Bay Marina, a route they had often

taken, when the lady took a nasty fall. She was bleeding from her nose and indicated that her right wrist may be broken. While we waited for the ambulance it was clear that she had stumbled over a raised corner of the concrete sidewalk. Early the next morning I drove by the same location and noticed a maintenance crew working on the sidewalk. The men were smoothing down the raised portion with a power grinder. They said pop-ups are

so common that it is difficult to keep up with the occurrences. Meter readers play an important part in ensuring the safety of Oak Bay residents. As part of their daily routine they inform the public works department of any dangers as they walk house to house. We as residents can also do our part by reporting any popups we stumble upon to the municipality. Alan Gregory Oak Bay

Don’t feed the Enough rhetoric already deer problem I have to concur with members of DeerSafe that area residents feeding deer are part of the problem. We have a home on the mountain side of Highway 97 South in Peachland, where deer at one time were daily visitors to our garden, being particularly fond of our tulips and roses. A gentleman who lived across the road from us there fed the deer every day. When he moved away and the house sold, the new owners did not feed the deer and now it is very unusual to have deer in our garden. Eileen Gormley Oak Bay

Saturday, April 21 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

For the last several weeks we have been treated to radio and television ads from the B.C. Government and the B.C. Teachers Federation, both extolling their own virtues. The government is telling us that they’re putting more money into the system than ever before because they care about the kids, and the union telling us that their working conditions are deplorable and that they’re doing it for the kids. Now this week I’m hearing ads from the B.C. Nurses Union and the rhetoric will be the same.The government will say it’s spending more money than ever because they care about the patients, and the nurses will say that their working conditions are deplorable and that they’re doing it for the patients. Why this war of words in the public domain? It’s the same every three to four years and I’m tired of it. Why can’t they sit down in a room and get the job done, come up with an agreement, and then let the voters decide if they like how the government is representing their needs and the union members can decide if they like the way that their leadership is representing them? The money and effort put into advertising and rhetoric would be much better spent elsewhere. Bob Broughton Victoria

more charging stations,â&#x20AC;? said Cam Rawlinson, member of the Islandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chapter of the Vancouver Electric Vehicle Association. Creating more stations would help promote the vehicles, he said, noting that similar facilities could be set up for users of electric bikes or mobility scooters. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These are all options that allow an aging population to become mobile and not to pollute,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The city right now probably has

erable time and strong policies to bring new clean-energy vehicles â&#x20AC;Ś into the mainstream market,â&#x20AC;? reads the Ministry of Environmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s request for proposals, which closed last week. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Appropriate government incentives and initial investment in charging/fuelling infrastructure will be instrumental in catalyzing the market.â&#x20AC;? Provincial funds will be distributed for 300 charging stations rated as Level 2. Those outlets dispense a similar amount of energy to a dryer outlet, but look more like a gasoline fuelling station. Within city limits, there are currently only three Level 2 charging stations, all of which are attached to hotels or condos, Rawlinson said. The Islands chapter of the electric vehicle association, which had its first meeting on Jan. 15, has grown to 53 members, 26 of whom live in Greater Victoria. While most members are interested in electric cars, Rawlinson said, his interest is in bicycles. He hopes to see the city invest in Level 1 charging stations, better suited for smaller, slower electric vehicles that require less power. These charging units resemble a standard wall plug-in, called a T-plug. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are many of those spread all over,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They tend to be undocumented.â&#x20AC;? Canadian Tire, for instance, has many in its parking lots. Rawlinson made his pitch for investing in more charging stations to Victoriaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s environment and infrastructure committee. Coun. Geoff Young questioned the notion of free charging stations. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I can see giving a subsidy at this early stage, but when they become common, there is clearly no justification for giving free power (to the owners of electric cars),â&#x20AC;? Young wrote in an email to the News. â&#x20AC;&#x153;At this point, besides the small numbers of expensive cars, I suspect we will be subsidizing the electric-assist pedicabs and electric bicycles.â&#x20AC;? rholmen@vicnews.com

The Story of

Easter Mark 15 & 16 New International Version (NIV)

Before Pilate – Very early in the morning, the J esus chief priests, with the elders, the teachers of the

law and the whole Sanhedrin, reached a decision. They bound Jesus, led him away and handed him over to Pilate. “Are you the king of the Jews?” asked Pilate. “Yes, it is as you say,” Jesus replied. The chief priests accused him of many things. So again Pilate asked him, “Aren’t you going to answer? See how many things they are accusing you of.” But Jesus still made no reply, and Pilate was amazed. Now it was the custom at the Feast to release a prisoner whom the people requested. A man called Barabbas was in prison with the insurrectionists who had committed murder in the uprising. The crowd came up and asked Pilate to do for them what he usually did. “Do you want me to release to you the king of the Jews?” asked Pilate, knowing it was out of envy that the chief priests had handed Jesus over to him. But the chief priests stirred up the crowd to have Pilate release Barabbas instead. “What shall I do, then, with the one you call the king of the Jews?” Pilate asked them. “Crucify him!” they shouted. “Why? What crime

has he committed?” asked Pilate. But they shouted all the louder, “Crucify him!” Wanting to satisfy the crowd, Pilate released Barabbas to them. He had Jesus ﬂogged and handed him over to be cruciﬁed. The soldiers led Jesus away into the palace (that is, the Praetorium) and called together the whole company of soldiers. They put a purple robe on him, then twisted together a crown of thorns and set it on him. And they began to call out to him, “Hail, king of the Jews!” Again and again they struck him on the head with a staff and spit on him. Falling on their knees, they paid homage to him. And when they had mocked him, they took off the purple robe and put his own clothes on him. Then they led him out to crucify him.

The Cruciﬁxion A certain man from Cyrene, Simon, the father of Alexander and Rufus, was passing by on his way in from the country, and they forced him to carry the cross. They brought Jesus to the place called Golgotha (which means The Place of the Skull). Then they offered him wine mixed with myrrh, but he did not take Continued on pg. 12

it. And they crucified him. Dividing up his clothes, they cast lots to see what each would get. It was the third hour when they crucified him. The written notice of the charge against him read: THE KING OF THE JEWS. They crucified two robbers with him, one on his right and one on his left. Those who passed by hurled insults at him, shaking their heads and saying, “So! You who are going to destroy the temple and build it in three days, come down from the cross and save yourself!” In the same way the chief priests and the teachers of the law mocked him among themselves. “He saved others,” they said, “but he can’t save himself! Let this Christ, this King of Israel, come down now from the cross, that we may see and believe.” Those crucified with him also heaped insults on him.

At the sixth hour darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour. And at the ninth hour Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?”— which means, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” When some of those standing near heard this, they said, “Listen, he’s calling Elijah.” One man ran, ﬁlled a sponge with wine vinegar, put it on a stick, and offered it to Jesus to drink. “Now leave him alone. Let’s see if Elijah comes to take him down,” he said. With a loud cry, Jesus breathed his last. The curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. And when the centurion, who stood there in front of Jesus, heard his cry and saw how he died, he said, “Surely this man was the Son of God!” Some women were watching from a distance. Among them were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James the younger and of Joses, and Salome. In Galilee these women had followed him and cared for his needs. Many other women who had come up with him to Jerusalem were also there.

The Burial of Jesus It was Preparation Day (that is, the day before the Sabbath). So as evening approached, Joseph of Arimathea, a prominent member of the Council, who was himself waiting for the kingdom of God, went boldly to Pilate and asked for Jesus’ body. Pilate was surprised to hear that he was already dead. Summoning the centurion, he asked him if Jesus had already died. When he learned from the centurion that it was so, he gave the body to Joseph. So Joseph bought some linen cloth, took down the body, wrapped it in the linen, and placed it in a tomb cut out of rock. Then he rolled a stone against the entrance of the tomb. Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses saw where he was laid. Continued on pg. 13

The holy days of Easter About one-third of the planet, or roughly 2.1 billion people, are Christians. Each spring, this large population celebrates the religious miracle that is the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The Lenten season is one of the holiest times of year on the Christian calendar, beginning with Ash Wednesday and lasting through Easter Sunday. Many Christians celebrate Easter but may not know the significance or meaning behind certain days. Ash Wednesday – In the Roman Catholic Church, Ash Wednesday marks the first day of Lent, the season when one prepares for the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Ash Wednesday always falls 46 days before Easter and will vary according to the calendar. During the mass, celebrants receive ashes in the form of a cross on their foreheads made from burning the blessed palm fronds from last year’s Palm Sunday mass. Palm Sunday – Palm Sunday marks the beginning of Holy Week when Christians attend mass and receive fronds of blessed palms, commemorating the entry of Jesus into Jerusalem to celebrate the Passover. Holy Thursday – The Thursday preceding Easter Sunday marks Jesus Christ’s last supper with his disciples. His act of breaking bread and offering it as His “body” and sharing wine as His “blood” has become an integral part of the Christian mass, representing Christ giving His life in place of our sins. Good Friday – The day that Jesus had to march to his crucifixion site while carrying an extremely heavy wooden cross. Jesus was mocked, spit on, tortured, and forced to wear a crown of thorns during His journey after being arrested by Judas and then Continued on pg. 13

The Resurrection When the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices so that they might go to anoint Jesusâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; body. Very early on the ďŹ rst day of the week, just after sunrise, they were on their way to the tomb and they asked each other, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Who will roll the stone away from the entrance of the tomb?â&#x20AC;? But when they looked up, they saw that the stone, which was very large, had been rolled away. As they entered the tomb, they saw a young man dressed in a white robe sitting on the right side, and they were alarmed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be alarmed,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was cruciďŹ ed. He has risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid him. But go, tell his disciples and Peter, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;He is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him, just as he told you.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? Trembling and bewildered, the women went out and ďŹ&#x201A;ed from the tomb. They said nothing to anyone, because they were afraid. When Jesus rose early on the ďŹ rst day of the week, he appeared ďŹ rst to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had driven

seven demons. She went and told those who had been with him and who were mourning and weeping. When they heard that Jesus was alive and that she had seen him, they did not believe it. Afterward Jesus appeared in a different form to two of them while they were walking in the country. These returned and reported it to the rest; but they did not believe them either. Later Jesus appeared to the Eleven as they were eating; he rebuked them for their lack of faith and their stubborn refusal to believe those who had seen him after he had risen. He said to them, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Go into all the world and preach the good news to all creation. Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned. And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues; they will pick up snakes with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all; they will place their hands on sick people, and they will get well.â&#x20AC;? After the Lord Jesus had spoken to them, he was taken up into heaven and he sat at the right hand of God. Then the disciples went out and preached everywhere, and the Lord worked with them and conďŹ rmed his word by the signs that accompanied it.

Support the one potato fund The Very Thought of You is available at Munro’s Books, Lyle’s Place, Larson Music and ianmcdougall.com or at the official CD launch tonight (April 4) from 7:30 p.m. at the University Club’s Fireside Lounge at UVic.

Jazz legend founds emergency fund for students Ian McDougall’s latest recording to benefit those in fine arts Natalie North News staff

Ian McDougall cranks the volume on his home stereo and lets a smile overwhelm him. His new recording of the Charlie Chaplin original, Smile, plays. “I like it loud,” says the 73-year-old jazz trombonist. Arms outstretched, McDougall pauses, then as if to point at the notes filling his living room, cries out in appreciation of Rick Wilkins’ arrangement on the track. “Listen to the strings,” McDougall says of the recording which happens to be much slower – and more emotional – than most expect from the ballad. The way Chaplin intended, he says. But the iconic jazz musician, Juno Award winner, University of Victoria professor emeritus and Order of Canada recipient stops himself short of embarking on a conversation about sentiment. The story behind his latest disc, The Very Thought of You, featuring Smile and 13 other classic ballads performed by an all-star ensem-

wife Barb, a four-piece rhythm section, 20 strings and an oboe. Barb, a violinist, produced and mixed the recording. The oldest of the ballads – which McDougall insists aren’t jazz – is a 1926 George Gershwin tune. The newest: Henry Mancini’s Moon River from ’61. McDougall’s epic career began in late night downtown Victoria, where he “learned on the job,” he says, as young as 12 years old. “Instead of playing in the school band, I was playing in the clubs with a bunch of boozers,” he adds. He went on to play on somewhere in the neighbourhood of 40 LPs and CDs over his 63-year-career and accompany the likes of Ella Fitzgerald, Tony Bennett and Gladys Knight. McDougall continues to perform with his band, the Ian McDougall 12tet. “Musicians never stop working if they care about music,” McDougall says, adding that continuing to play is also an excuse not to drink cheap wine. Should CD sales take off, Ten Mile has plans to extend the fund to fine arts students across the country. “I’m very happy to the supporters and that they’re happy giving to this fund. What more can you ask for?” nnorth@saanichnews.com

Beginning her tenth season as Music Director of the Victoria Symphony Maestra Tania Miller unveiled the schedule for the symphony’s 72nd season which includes singer songwriter Chantal Kreviazuk and Grammy Award winning violinist James Ehnes. For the first time in its history the Victoria Symphony will perform Bartok’s Miraculous Mandarin and Nielsen’s Symphony No. 5. The VS Pops Series will feature Cirque de la Symphonie, The Beatles: Sergeant Pepper, and in tribute to the retirement of Principal Pops Conductor Brian Jackson, The Best of Brian Jackson. Leading off the announcements, Miller said it was hard to believe the new season would be her 10th as music director. When she joined the symphony in 2003, she was not only the youngest music director of a major orchestra in Canada at age 33, but she was also the only female music director. Her contributions to the Victoria Symphony have included innovative programming, significant orchestra changes and increased music education programs. The Concert for Kids Series will begin with The Snowman on Nov. 18. The film version of the story will be shown with live musical accompaniment by the orchestra. The New Music Festival in November will celebrate 100 years of one of the most iconic and revolutionary figures in musical history – John Cage. Subscription packages and season brochures are available through the Victoria Symphony box office at 250-385-6515. llavin@vicnews.com

Biking is back World-class cyclists on hand to mentor students Travis Paterson News staff

Six months pregnant, Erinne Willock has put the racing bike away in favour of cruising the Galloping Goose. Granted, the pro-cyclist and 2008 Olympian still knows a thing or two about her sport and she’s eager to share. This Friday (April 6) Willock will join several world-class cyclists lending their knowledge at the School Bike League’s inaugural Bike Jam. “The school bike league is what got me on my bike and started my career,” Willock said. The Stelly’s grad remembers going to school races in the 1990s with 300 or 400

Edward Hill/News staff

Olympian road cyclist Erinne Willock and mountain bike national team coach Geoff Pendrel will be coaching kids at Bike Jam on Friday (April 6). kids competing. When she found herself with time to spare this winter, she offered to help out with the bike league. The day-long festival is a free event for middle and high school students in Greater Victoria. It also serves as the spring season

kickoff for the newly rebranded School Bike League. The Bike Jam runs 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the lower park of Juan de Fuca Recreation Centre, using the Velodrome and BMX track, among the other natural features available. “It’s the best place we could imagine,”

said School Bike League co-organizer Lara McCulloch. “We’re running dual slalom tracks down the slope, and we’ll have access to track bikes on the Velodrome and BMX bikes on the BMX track.” Willock’s road racing clinic is one of seven half-hour stations that kids will move through at Bike Jam. “We’ll do drills and skills, maybe a few little relay races,” Willock said. “It’s informative and also fun, and good for all skill levels.” Each station will be led by experts: the Victoria BMX Association, the Greater Victoria Velodrome Association, single-speed cyclocross world champion Drew McKenzie, national mountain-biking coach Geoff Pendrel and elite downhill mountain biker Scott Mitchell. Perhaps the most fun element is the Camp of Champions Air Bag. Kids can jump their bike in the air and land on the bag. At 3:30 p.m., pro dirt jumpers Jarrett Moore (Oak Bay) and Sam Dueck (Vancouver) will put on an exhibition using the bag. “In the 1990s, there was 400 kids in the bike league but, last year, there was maybe 40 kids,” said McCulloch, who’s on the organizing team with Kate Beardmore, Lister Farrar, Eric Simonson, Bruce Tonkin and Tony Wakelin. “We’re doing this huge promotion because the word wasn’t getting out. We saw that the bike league needed exposure.” Registration is free at schoolbikeleague. ca or prior to the event’s 10 a.m. start. sports@vicnews.com

Saanich Storm win Leversedge

Bays drop Jackson as brothers up rivalry Tyler Hughes wins battle of the brothers over Jordie in VISL cup final Travis Paterson News staff

A late surge by Cowichan FC dusted the hopes of Victoria’s Bays United in the 2012 Jackson Cup at Royal Athletic Park on Sunday afternoon. The Bays took an early 1-0 lead on a goal by Dan Cumming (7th minute) and held it until brothers Chris and Matt Arnett scored in the 65th and 72nd minute, respectively, to win it 2-1 for Cowichan. It’s the second straight year Cowichan won the historic Jackson Cup trophy as Vancouver Island Soccer League champions, beating upstart Juan de Fuca last year. Sunday was especially bitter for Bays midfielder Jordie Hughes, whose brother Tyler is the anchor on Cowichan’s back line. “We talked about it going into this game – that one of us was going to have one more (Jackson Cup) than the other,” Jordie said. “It’s always been competitive, going back to when we were kids.” Big brother Tyler, 31, now has two

Jackson titles, while Jordie, 27, is stuck at one, which he won with Gorge FC over Cowichan in 2010. The two Spectrum community school grads are best known for playing together on the Victoria Highlanders, but on Sunday they were pitted against each other. With less than three minutes to go in regulation, the Bays were one step short of hitting the desperate button when Jordie challenged Tyler in a one-on-one. Jordie beat Tyler to the outside and would’ve had an opportunity to make a dangerous crossing pass until Tyler tripped him. By doing so, Tyler surrendered a free kick just outside the 18 yard box along the goal line. It was the second time Tyler had fouled Jordie in a game this season. “(Tyler) got a yellow card earlier this season for pushing me,” Jordie said. “He said he would have pushed me harder if he knew he was going to get carded.” This foul, however, could have become a legendary highlight in the Hughes’ soccer history. Luckily for Tyler, it didn’t. On the ensuing free kick Jordie chipped a lobbing cross into the six yard box, where all 11 Bays were pressing for the tying goal. Cowichan cleared it, then survived a header from Jordie that just missed, and a volley by Peter

Richmond that cleared the crossbar by three feet, all in the waning moments. Matt Arnett was named MVP of the game. “(Cowichan) played well,” Jordie said. “The field wasn’t the greatest, it was sticky (and wet). Both teams had chances and we were unlucky.” The Bays and Cowichan will continue on in the provincial cup.

VISL cup results The Bays United Gunners defeated Nanaimo 4-1 to win the George Smith Cup under-21 title. Alex Will (16th minute), Kean

Devries (18th), Jeff Bone (53rd) and Caleb Hosie (86th) scored for the Bays. Colin Medlar was the game MVP. Gordon Head Active Earth defeated the Cordova Bay Bobcats 1-0 In an all-Saanich matchup for the Div. 3, George Pearkes Challenge Cup. Luke Hill scored the only goal in the 86th minute and Gordon Head’s David McCauly was MVP. Nick Gilbert scored a free kick in the 86th minute as Gorge FC defeated UVic Alumni in the Toni Grover Masters trophy match. Gorge’s Toni Roach was awarded MVP. sports@vicnews.com

Promotion is in the works as the Saanich Fusion Storm will join Division 2 of the Lower Island Women’s Soccer Association next year. The Storm edged Bays United 1-0 in the Frank Leversedge Community Cup, Division 3 championship on Frank’s Field at Lochside Park on Sunday. Midfielder Melissa Lee scored at 77 minutes. Goalkeepers Abbey Lovick and Kate Whitmore shared the clean sheet for the Storm. The Storm are double winners as the Div. 3B league champs and Div. 3 Frank Leversedge cup holders. The Bays will play a special playoff against the Lakehill Reds for the second promotion spot to Div. 2.

Salty loss for Gorge Sue-Anne Donaldson scored the game’s only goal six minutes in as Div. 2 Saltspring United defeated over-30 Gorge FC in the Stephanie Shergold Cup. Saltspring’s keeper Alisha Renaud earned the shutout. sports@vicnews.com
