Youths show skills Renée Andor Black Press G.P. Vanier Secondary School made history Wednesday as it teemed with skilled youth during the regional Skills Canada competition. Not only was this year the first that the competition was hosted at Vanier, the competition was the most widespread in terms of events offered compared to all 12 regions in the province, according to organizer Randy Grey. “Our region offered every event that Skills has and that’s the only region that’s ever done that in history so it was a very, very big event and it was really, really widespread,” Grey explained. Some competition areas were: automotive service, cabinetmaking, culinary arts, electronics, TV/video production, baking and hairdressing. Students from Port Alberni, Parksville/ Qualicum, Campbell River and all three secondary schools in the Comox Valley came to compete for the chance to move onto the provincial
GAS BARBECUES 1X2
competition in Abbotsford on April 18. Comox Valley students will have a strong showing at the provincials as they placed first many of the categories including: computer animation, automotive service, graphic design, electronics, digital art, junior sumo robot, welding, baking, culinary arts and hairdressing. Grade 12 Highland student Danielle Michaud tied for first in the hairdressing competition with her classmate Alex Howell. Both students are enrolled in the Accelerated Credit Enrolment in Industry Training (ACE IT) program.
Michaud said she chose the ACE IT program because it allows her to attend Del Rio Academy this year and get a jump start on her career. “It was such a great opportunity I couldn’t pass it up, and the school district helps you out a little bit with the tuition,” said Michaud. “And if you can graduate from school and college at the same time, why not?” During the competition, Michaud and Howell cut, coloured and created updos on mannequin heads while groups of students watched them in the Vanier’s main foyer. The Skills Canada competition is normally hosted at
the Campbell River campus of North Island College, so this year presented new challenges because the event was hosted in a fully operational high school, according to Grey. Seven classrooms were displaced during the competition, which ran for much of the school day, but the event involved many students in the school besides competitors and things went smoothly, Grey said. “The day went really well; we had leadership classes from the school giving tours (to younger Vanier

Fishing 2X14 Corner with Don Daniels email: dond@campbellrivermirror.com I was able to get to Echo Lake last Sunday. The weather had warmed up and it was a great day to get out fishing. The trout were not surfacing anywhere on the lake, but anglers were fishing from shore, and a few were out in canoes and belly boats. The consensus was that Anglers at Echo Lake it’s too early for catching fish but a g ize great day to get out and organize for the next trip out. The Ideal Tackle in town, which is oowned by Ken Hunter, is now open for the fishing season. Ken has been in Campbell River since 1944 and sta starting fishing in 1950. He recently rec received a call from an angler from Ge Germany who ordered a number of le Tack Pat Olsen, shops at Ideal rod rods for Tyee fishing. Anglers who have been on the hunt for halibut have had success fishing around Kelsey Bay. Halibut caught are coming in between 30 to 50 pounds. Red snapperr and cod are also in the area. Fishing for winter Springs has been slow, but 15 pounders have been hooked in the area. Prawning at Nootka Sound has been fair so far. Moutcha Bay Resort will be opening May 18th, and reports Jen Etty & Brandy Miller coming out of the resort have the anglers often moving their traps. Prawning should improve in the foll following weeks. These early days are teasers for the upcoming day season. sea John Drewett, from London England, was fishing with local Eng Campbell River Guide Harry Ca MacDonald on the Gold River, They Ma managed to beach and release 9 fish ma in tthe week and lost 4. The trails had John Drewett 16 inches of snow and the weather was crappy. John will return to fish next year. This time of year, the fishermen will be getting their gear organized and the public boat launches will start rt to get busy. After the recent storms, the water is full of debris and this is always a hazard to boaters.

Students put in lots of effort From Page 8 keeping organization,” he explained. The Record caught up Grade 10 student Vici Renwall while she was touring the culinary arts part of the competition. Although she plans to attend law school, she could appreciate the chance to see all of the different skills in
action. “I want to be a lawyer so there’s not really anything for me but if you’re into foods or anything like carpentry, that’s pretty cool,” said Renwall. Grey noted the amount of work everyone put into the event was huge — especially the extra hours teachers involved in each of
the competition areas dedicated — and he considered the event a success. “It was really successful,” Grey said. “We had about 160 people in the closing ceremony so that to me is a true measure that people really enjoyed it.” writer@ comoxvalleyrecord. com
Pincott... From Page 3
Contrary to what the research says saw palmetto works for most men with BPH. 6. Eat vegetables. Even if you eat vegetables once per week this reduces the risk of developing advanced stage prostate cancer by half! Eating broccoli and cauliflower appears to have the greatest impact. Men who ate broccoli more than once per week had a 45 per cent lower risk of advanced prostate cancer and eating cauliflower this often cut risk by 52 per cent. 7. Exercising other than bicycle riding, three hours per week prevents prostate cancer. In Chinese Medicine they consider stasis as a major contributing factor to prostate problems so exercise increases blood flow to the area. Bicycle riding may possibly traumatize the prostate if done too much. Regular vigorous exercise may slow the progression of and reduce mortality from prostate cancer.

Arthritis? Diabetes? Aches & Pains?
NOT SLEEPING? 7x14
T3 RECOVERY MATTRESS™
Now Available in Canada Ironman Mattresses with Celiant® and Cellitex® have been proven in clinical tests to reduce pain, increase oxygen levels and help balance body temperature. Each of these results can have added benefits, including faster healing, increased performance, better quality sleep and improved overall wellness; all of which can help alleviate the symptoms of arthritis and peripheral vascular disease often associated with diabetes. The key to Celliant® lies in its ability to absorb and store electromagnetic (energy) emissions from the human body and release them where they are reabsorbed into the skin and deep muscle tissue, they act as catalysts for natural, biological processes resulting in enhanced oxygen levels and more balanced body temperature during sleep, rest or physical activity.

Natural Latex in the Ironman Mattress is inherently hypo-allergenic, anti-microbial and dust mite resistant, making it the perfect mattress for allergy sufferers, or anyone wanting to breath the fresh, clean air while they sleep. In addition, natural latex is breathable, keeping you warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer. It will provide you with the perfect balance of comfort and support for years to come.
Also available for adjustable beds with 1,000 positions and massage
T3 RECOVERY MATTRESS™
Natural Latex dynamically conforms to you, providing superior support and pressure relief. By gently conforming to your every contour, latex provides superior back support and outstanding pressure relief. Relieving pressure reduces the tossing and turning that interrupts sleep and brings needed oxygen and nutrients to tired aching muscles.
