Gryphon’s Lair raising money for North Oyster hot lunch program Niomi Pearson The Chronicle

A former North Oyster Elementary School student wants to see the school’s old lunch program put back on the menu. At the end of the school year, parents learned that provincial CommunityLink funding, which supported the school’s hot lunch program, was being re-allocated to instructional supports for students. In its place, the Nanaimo Foodshare Program will be providing meals at a cost of $3.75 per student whose need was identified by a take-home survey. School district representatives have said extra meals will also be available to students to ensure no child goes hungry. The meals previously cost $1.50 per student. However Stacey MacAdam, North Oyster Parent Advisory Council member, is concerned that the cost will be too much for some families, and she is trying to fundraise approximately $30,000 by summer’s end to keep the hot lunch program in place. While there has been some response, MacAdam is worried it won’t be enough to make that September deadline. “We’ve sent out letters and it’s been in the newspapers; I just don’t know what to do next,” she said. Terry Giannakos said he was spurred to action after reading the Chronicle’s July 3 article on the issue. Giannakos said he grew up in Ladysmith and attended North Oyster Elementary School through Grades 1-7. At the time, his father owned the Omega Restaurant on the outskirts of Ladysmith (now The Gryphon’s Lair). Although he was not a recipient of the lunch program, Giannakos said many of his schoolmates were. “That school means a lot to me, then when I saw the article … I wanted to see how we could help,” he said. “Times are tough for everybody right now, and that program helps a lot

of people.” After 20 years away from home, Giannakos has returned as executive chef and manager of The Gryphon’s Lair. For the past six years, he has been a consultant for restaurants around the continent, helping restaurant owners who are down in sales to improve through administration, new menus and training of staff. He says he is interested in giving back to the community as his father did when he owned the restaurant. On Fri., Aug. 10, the restaurant will be hosting a pig roast with live entertainment to support the Ladysmith Food Bank. Patrons who bring in donations to the Ladysmith Food Bank will receive a free appetizer with their meal that night. “It’s cool to be back,” Giannakos said. On Aug. 23, The Gryphon’s Lair is donating 25 per cent of all food purchases made at the restaurant that day to the North Oyster Elementary School hot lunch program. Giannakos is also trying to pull together corporate sponsorships from the food industry and says he already has a commitment of approximately $3,000. In addition, Yellow Point Lodge has made a $900 donation to the cause. MacAdam said she has also had an individual come forward to inquire about a mutual fund donation, but with school out of session, she has been unable to consult with administration. Giannakos said that if the hot lunch program is not able to be re-instated, he is interested in looking into the possibility of providing a free meal to students in need once a week by donating his time and corporate sponsorships donating the necessary food. “I want to see what we can do and what we’re allowed to do,” he said. “Something’s gotta be done.” If you’d like to find out more information or are interested in helping out, contact Stacey MacAdam at 250667-2561.

celebrates one-millionth passenger Staff Writer THE CHRONICLE

Although nobody walked away with the million-dollar prize, everyone was a winner July 26 when the Nanaimo Airport hosted the qualifiers of its six-week Thanks a Million contest. Each of the 30 regional qualifiers tried their five-digit code to open a safe and win $1 million. Although none of the qualifiers’ codes opened the safe, each did walk away with a secondary prize. Kees Van Jaarsveld of Duncan won a oneyear lease of a Jetta from Harbourview Vo l k s w a g e n , a n d Ladysmith’s Gayl Scott won a 47-inch LED Samsung TV from McKays Electronic Experts. The Nanaimo A i r p o r t ’s G a i n i n g Altitude — A Million and Beyond campaign is the next step in the a i r p o r t ’s m a n a g e d growth strategy that

saw the completion of a two-phase expansion plan between 2006 and 2011. During that time 913,000 passengers travelled through the terminal, and the airport reached its goal of one million passengers in early July. “Collaboration and partnership has been the driving force behind the success of this campaign,” Nanaimo Airport president/CEO Mike Hooper said in a press release. “Our success as an airport is tied directly to the support we receive from airport service providers, area residents, businesses and elected officials. I extend a huge thank you to all of those that stepped forward and sponsored this promotion.” Along with a larger terminal, more parking and faster passenger screening and baggage handling, Nanaimo Airport’s 2011 completion of the airport expansion plan also extended its runways

Annual Report highlights collaboration Town of Ladysmith’s 2011 Annual Report looks at past accomplishments and sets objectives for the future Lindsay Chung The Chronicle

The power of partnerships is a theme running through the Town of Ladysmith 2011 Annual Report. Council recently approved the report, which details the town’s financial statements, strategic planning directions and community profile and provides information about the town’s commissions, staff and committees. To open the report, Mayor Rob Hutchins highlights the spirit of working together with the Stz’uminus First Nation and also with various groups around the community, which led to many achievements throughout the year. “The desire to build a strong and resilient community is an excellent starting point for forging positive relationships with neighbours and fellow citizens as we work together to achieve our common goals and dreams,” he writes. “One of the reasons for the many successes and accomplishments all residents of Ladysmith can be proud of is that we know how to work well together — and to build lasting friendships as we build an even better community.”

In his message, Hutchins explains that the Town and the Stz’uminus First Nation came together throughout the year to draft a renewed Community Accord, which was signed this May and which lays out a framework for working together to improve the communities. “The Accord, first signed in 2007, laid the foundation for a new way of working together on common i s s u e s a n d o p p o rtunities for our two communities,” writes Hutchins. “As with so many projects, the process will leave as big a legacy as the outcome. Through the process of renewing the Community Accord, we spent time together, sharing, getting to know one another, building honest and lasting friendships. We still have differences, but more than anything, we have a positive relationship and know how to work together.” Co-operation was a strong theme throughout 2011 in the community, resulting in many major accomplishments, such as completing the new Community Services Centre/Spirit Square complex on High Street, completing t h e L i q u i d Wa s t e Management Plan and

moving ahead with plans for a secondary treatment plant; introducing a new policy to guide secondary suites in Ladysmith homes after public consultation and discussion; continuing the process to implement the Ladysmith Sustainability Vision; and others. City manager Ruth

Lauren Smythies cheers on Vancouver Island athletes representing Canada at the Summer Olympics in London at the Ladysmith Chamber of Commerce office at 411B First Ave. The Chamber of Commerce is encouraging people to drop by from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. any day from now until Aug. 10 to watch the Olympics on the Chamber’s new TV and show their Canadian pride. According to a press release, 41 of Canada’s 277 athletes competing in the Olympics are from Vancouver Island.

Avastin and Lucentis are equivalent in treating age-related macular degeneration

www.ladysmithchronicle.com Avastin (bevacizumab) and Lucentis (ranibizumab injection), two widely used drugs

to treat age-related macular degeneration (AMD), improve vision when administered monthly or on an as needed basis, according to researchers supported by the National Institutes of Health. At two years, greater improvements in vision were Dr. Anita Voisin seen with monthly administration for this common, debilitating eye disease. Of the two drugs, Avastin is most frequently used to treat AMD. However, prior to the Comparison of AMD Treatments Trials (CATT), a two-year clinical trial, the two drugs had never been compared head-to-head. Second year results were published on April 30, 2012 in the journal Ophthalmology. AMD is the leading cause of vision loss and blindness in older Americans. In its advanced stages, the wet form of AMD spurs the growth of abnormal blood vessels, which leak fluid and blood into the macula and obscure vision. The macula is the central portion of the retina that allows us to look straight ahead and to perceive fine visual detail. Accumulation of fluid and blood damages the macula, causing loss of central vision, which can severely impede mobility and independence. Without treatment, most patients become unable to drive, read, recognize faces or perform tasks that require hand-eye coordination. “Therapies for AMD require repeated treatment to prevent vision loss. Results of this clinical trial provide evidence that long-term treatment with either drug results in a robust and lasting improvement in vision. Patients and clinicians now have valuable information to base treatment decisions,” said Paul A. Sieving, M.D., Ph.D., director of the NEI. Avastin and Lucentis block growth of abnormal blood vessels and leakage of fluid from the vessels. Lucentis was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2006 for the treatment of AMD. Avastin is very similar to Lucentis but is not approved by the FDA for this purpose. Avastin is approved for other indications. Most clinicians use these drugs on an as-needed basis when there is evidence of active disease, such as fluid leakage. However, in the original clinical trials for AMD, Lucentis was administered monthly. It was unknown if as-needed dosing would produce the same long-term visual improvements achieved with monthly administration. Thus, CATT was designed to compare Avastin and Lucentis with monthly and as-needed treatment schedules. At enrollment, patients were assigned to four treatment groups defined by drug (Avastin or Lucentis) and dosing regimen (monthly or as-needed). After year one, patients initially assigned to monthly treatment were randomly reassigned to monthly or as-needed treatment without changing their drug assignment. At two years, visual acuity with monthly treatment was slightly better than with as-needed dosing, regardless of the drug. As measured on an eye chart, monthly treatment resulted in a mean improvement of about half a line better than as-needed dosing. Switching to as-needed treatment after one year of monthly treatment yielded outcomes nearly equal to those obtained with as-needed treatment for the full two years. Changes in retinal anatomy differed by drug and frequency of treatment, but did not have an impact on vision through two years. “Both drugs were highly effective regardless of the approach to dosing. There was slightly less vision gain with as-needed treatment. Patients seeking the small extra advantage of monthly treatment need to be mindful of the additional burden, risks, and costs of monthly injections. Since as-needed dosing C required 10 fewer eye injections over the course of two years and yielded similar visual results, many patients may choose this option.” said Daniel F. Martin, M.D., study chair for CATT and chairman of the M Cole Eye Institute at the Cleveland Clinic. Adverse events indicate development or worsening of a medical condition. They may or may not be caus- Y ally associated with the clinical trial treatment, but they are always monitored and reported in any clinical trial. The median age of patients in CATT was over 80 years, and a high rate of hospitalizations would be CM anticipated as a result of chronic or acute medical conditions more common to older populations. Serious adverse events (SAEs) occurred at a 40 percent rate for patients receiving Avastin and a 32 percent MY rate for patients receiving Lucentis. Although Avastin had a higher rate of SAEs, they were distributed CY across many different conditions, most of which were not associated with Avastin when evaluated in cancer clinical trials, in which the drug was administered at 500 times the dose used for AMD. Fewer doses were associated with a higher rate of SAEs, which is not a typical dose-response relationship. TheCMY number of deaths, heart attacks, and strokes were low and similar for both drugs during the study. CATT was not capable of determining whether there is an association between a particular adverse event and K treatment. Additional data from other clinical trials may provide information on long-term safety profiles of these drugs when used to treat AMD. “The dramatic and lasting improvement in vision with these two drugs is extraordinary. At two-years, two-thirds of patients had driving vision (20/40 vision or better).

To qualify for this scholarship, Herle’s grade point average had to be above 90 per cent. She says that hours of studying helped her get amazing marks. “I do really well if I read it and take notes and then read it some more,” she said. “Just meticulous studying, but it depends on the course. I just did an AP (advanced placement) literature course, and it took three to four hours a day.” To keep her scholarship, Herle must maintain a high average at university. But this homeschooler says she already has the necessary skills to excel at school. “I have been home schooled all my life, so I’m used to having to work at my own pace and figure out things on my own,” she said. “Throughout my school, I’ve had pretty good grades, but if I can continue at the rate I’ve been going, I should do OK. It’s a different environment at university, but I hope it will be a better environment.” Tr i n i t y We s t e r n University, which is located in Langley, is a Christian-based university and is Canada’s

These young environmental stewards from the Boys and Girls Club of Ladysmith were out and about on July 26 with their adult supervisors to celebrate nature and share with the community what they have been learning about endangered species, people and environments.

Obon ceremony this Saturday in Chemainus This weekend, the Vancouver Island Obon Cemetery Tour will come to Chemainus to honour the area’s Japanese-Canadians. For more than 25 years, the British Columbia Jodo Shinshu Buddhist Temples Federation, which is based on the mainland, has sponsored an annual Vancouver Island Obon Cemetery Tour to pay respects to the many individuals of Japanese descent who helped build Vancouver Island’s communities and are buried in our historic cemeteries. The Japanese-Canadians of the Vancouver Island and coastal B.C. were removed and interned in April 1942, as WWII spread to the Pacific, and few made their way back, so most of those buried here no longer have descendants living nearby to honour their memories. Members of various Jodo Shinshu Buddhist Temples began organizing the Obon Tour in the mid-1980s as a “way of acknowledging the pioneers of our country [and] letting them know that they may be gone, but they are not forgotten.” “Obon” is the Japanese Buddhist “Feast of Lanterns,” an annual festival originating in China that begins on the 15th day of the seventh lunar month and honours the spirits of

family ancestors. Everyone who can, travels home for family reunions, work bees are held to clean ancestor’s graves and monuments, and their spirits are believed to return to visit their families’ household altars. For the 2012 Obon Cemetery Tour, Rev. Grant Ikuta, the resident minister of the Steveston Buddhist Temple who was recently elected the first Canadian-born Socho or Bishop of the Jodo Shinshu Buddhist Temples of Canada, will be visiting five historic Vancouver Island cemeteries and one private residence this weekend. The Obon ceremony and Chemainus Cemetery Dedication Service in Chemainus will take place Saturday at 10 a.m. at Chemainus/St. Michael’s and All Angels Cemetery on Chemainus Road. The ceremony will include a special dedication service to acknowledge the new grave markers that the Chemainus Cemetery Society has placed on each plot in the old “Japanese Section,” an area of unmarked burials since the graves were vandalized during the Second World War. Ikuta will lead participants in cleaning up graves and monuments before and after each cemetery service. — Submitted

t may be hard to think about the start of another school year right now as the sun shines down on us and we make our plans for Ladysmith Days and all kinds of summer activities, but Delena Sword and Mimi Zuyderduyn have certainly been putting a lot of thought into the start of school. And that thinking has led to worrying. They know that many families in Ladysmith will not be able to afford school supplies for their children for the coming school year. In previous years, there has been a local fundraiser for backpacks and supplies for schoolchildren whose names were obtained through the Ladysmith Food Bank. Sword and Zuyderduyn say they know the need will be greater this year, and they anticipate that fundraising will be more difficult. Because of this, and because they would like to reach those in need who are not Food Bank clients, Sword and Zuyderudyn have decided that instead of running parallel programs, they will join with the Nanaimo-Ladysmith Schools Foundation, which has had a Stock the Locker program in place to help local children for several years. “As they buy their goods in large quantities and at considerable discount, our monies will go further,” write Sword and Zuyderduyn. Ladysmith schools have already received funds from Stock the Lockers, and Sword and Zuyderduyn hope to raise the profile of this program in Ladysmith and do a month-long fundraising campaign designated for schoolchildren in North Oyster and Ladysmith. Their goal is to raise $4,000 so that every student in Ladysmith and North Oyster will start the school with the necessary supplies. Ladysmith Mayor Rob Hutchins has declared August as Stock the Lockers Month in Ladysmith. Here’s your chance to help children start the school year on the right foot. Contact Sword (250-245-2190) or Zuyderduyn (250416-0016) for more information. — The Chronicle

ast July, I was sitting at a table in the Old Town Bakery in Ladysmith. I live in Ladysmith. My husband Min Goo is the minister at Ladysmith First United Church, and I have been working as the interim minister at Chemainus United Church since May. (Rev. Fran Darling is now on medical leave.) I ordered a sandwich and then started reading a Bible commentary to get background information for my next sermon. I overheard the two young women behind the counter talking to each other. One of them said, “Oh, now I can’t say I’m too young.” I turned back to my book and lost myself in its words, until I noticed that one of the young women was addressing me with some excitement. “I see you’re reading The Storyteller’s Companion

to the Bible. It looks really interesting, but I don’t want to bother you.” she said. “No, it’s no bother at all. This is a commentary book. I believe that we learn more about Jesus through stories. I’m a minister,” I replied. Her eyes got bigger. “I have been always interested in things like this. Through stories? That’s awesome! By the way, can a woman become a priest or, how do you call, minister, like that?” “Yes. For instance, my denomination, United Church, has really many excellent woman ordained ministers, and I am very proud of them!” I replied. Then she asked a very interesting question. “So which colour? … I mean, is it the pink church over there or the brown church ...?” “Which colour?? ... Oh!” I smiled, “It’s the one beside Hillside Medical Centre ... Do you go to church?” I really didn’t know people called the town churches by the colours of the buildings instead of the denominations’ names — Catholic, Anglican, Baptist,

Pentecostal, United ... It was a surprise which made me smile and gave me a glimpse of how people in our secular society think about the place of churches in the community. “I used to,” she said. “My father was Catholic, and my mother was Protestant. When they got divorced, she became a Buddhist because she admired that lifestyle. So, what’s the difference between the Catholic Church and the United Church? What is the United Church?” The young woman had a lot of questions, and I really liked her. I thought to myself, “The reason she’s asking these questions is not just an accident. Look at her eyes. She has a calling, I feel that, but it’s still a hidden treasure, waiting to be revealed.” But instead of telling her my thoughts, I spoke to her of my own experience: “We believe that all of us have authority and strength in ourselves to understand God’s Word, so that Jesus can meet each of us

through our own different life circumstances and life journeys. We don’t tell you what to believe; we journey together with the question of how to believe and how to commune with God and each other. This is the United Church, and this is the United Church’s strength.” That conversation made me feel God’s presence and power between myself and the young woman, just as if we were in one of Jesus’ parables. I found it interesting that the commentary book The Storyteller’s Companion to the Bible inspired our conversation, because each of us shared a bit of our own stories with each other and made a connection. We looked each other in the eyes and had a real talk about the meaning of faith. I felt, in that conversation, Jesus was reaching out to both of us, adding us to the tapestry of experiences and belief that are part of Christianity both across the globe and in the town of Ladysmith.

Pipeline posturing does not help BC Views

by Tom Fletcher

T

he B.C. Liberal government is taking its new hard-line approach to federal environmental hearings on the Enbridge Northern Gateway pipeline proposal in September. Environment Minister Terry Lake has filed the B.C. government’s notice to cross-examine Enbridge, one of the world’s biggest pipeline operators. Lake outlined the “tough questions” B.C. representatives will ask about spill response capacity, tanker escort tugboats, pipe wall thickness and Enbridge’s sluggish response to a pipeline rupture in Michigan. That’s all fine and to be expected after Premier Christy Clark’s highprofile confrontation with Alberta Premier Alison Redford going into the premiers’ meeting in Halifax. Clark’s demands for “world-leading” safety and spill response, as well as meeting the constitutional obligation to consult and accommodate aboriginal groups along

the route, are mostly a statement of the obvious. Her call for a “fair share” of proceeds from exported oil to reflect B.C.’s risk has been assaulted from all sides. Pipeline opponents seized on Clark’s suggestion that a major oil spill might be tolerable if there was enough money in it for B.C. NDP leader Adrian Dix picked up the theme as he conducted his own belated tour of the proposed route to reiterate his opposition. There had been earlier hints from Alberta that B.C. might need further rewards for the risk. But when Clark made the “fair share” demand public, Redford was moved to channel Margaret Thatcher, declaring: “The Premier of Alberta is not going to blink on royalties.” The lady’s not for blinking, but neither is B.C.’s Iron Snowbird, as Preston Manning dubbed Clark this spring. All this political theatre doesn’t amount to much. I’ll stand by my January prediction that the Enbridge proposal is unlikely to proceed, mainly due to the tangled

state of aboriginal claims. Wealthy U.S. foundations that view the B.C. North Coast as their 500-year ecoexperiment will be happy to help fund a decade of legal challenges, while continuing the media-spinning and protest support they are doing now. Even if some way can be found to levy a B.C. tax on revenues from the Northern Gateway pipeline, it’s no solution. For one thing, it would confer an advantage to the Trans-Mountain pipeline that has been shipping Alberta oil to Burnaby and the U.S. for more than 60 years. The competing expansion proposal by Trans-Mountain’s current owner, Kinder Morgan, shows the inconsistency of opposition to pipelines. Does anyone really believe that a new pipeline built to the highest standards ever would be too dangerous, while a 60-yearold pipeline is acceptable? Protesters have an easy target in Kinder Morgan. With a tenfold increase to 25 tankers a month proposed to sail under the Lions

Gate bridge, a heavy oil spill from Second Narrows to Stanley Park would be catastrophic to Vancouver’s environment and economy. Tankers have made that trip safely for nearly 100 years, but the congested modern shipping lane offers more threat of collision, and clearing Burrard Inlet for near-daily tanker transits would disrupt the rest of B.C.’s shipping trade. An Angus Reid poll last week showed as many as half of respondents remain openminded about the costs and benefits of new oil pipelines across B.C. Unlike B.C. politicians, they seem interested in learning more before making up their minds. Dix and the NDP ran to the front of the anti-pipeline parade early, as they did with the carbon tax and other issues. Clark began the Northern Gateway discussion with a principled position to wait for the result of the federal review, but that’s apparently out the window with an election looming.

This weekend, Chemainus will celebrate the music of the accordion and honour an accordion-loving woman who dedicated her time and energy to culture in Chemainus during Accordion Days. Hosted by the Chemainus Valley Cultural Arts Society (CVCAS), Accordion Days this Friday and Saturday is dedicated to musical organizer and multi-instrumentalist Hilary Everitt, who passed away last November and whose birthday would have been Sat., Aug. 11. Wes Everitt, past chair of the CVCAS, says his late wife, who was the emcee and organizer of past accordion festivals for nine years and one of the festival’s founders, will be honoured in the Accordion Days program. Chemainus hosted an accordion festival for many years, but they ran out of volunteers, and the festival eventually moved to Victoria. That festival has evolved into Accordion Days, explained Everitt. “Everybody who came here liked Chemainus so much that they came back for Accordion Days,” he said. Accordion Days starts Friday with

Gail Ralphs is a gallery maven Community art showcase Sherry Bezanson Ladysmith Arts Council

On any given day at the Ladysmith Waterfront Art Gallery, you will find Gail Ralphs either in her studio space working diligently on her latest piece, managing the gift shop in the gallery, assisting on the board of directors, teaching classes or doing just about anything to support the non-profit organization. Workhorse extraordinaire Ralph is one of the key people that keeps things moving in a positive direction at the Ladysmith Arts Council (LAC) — and she does it all with a smile and a joke. She is vital to keeping things on track and rallying the troops when things need to get done. “I’ve always been cre-

ative and interested in painting since I was a child, but I really got into the arts world about six years ago,” Ralphs explains. It was after retirement that she took an art class in Victoria and was inspired to begin a self-directed path of expressing the visions within her. Her work is informed by the world of her ancestry, the Celts, the old world, history and nature. Her favourite period is the Pre-Raphaelite period that is known for intense colour, abundant detail and complex, rich compositions. Her favourite artist is the renowned Photo Submitted 1800s painter John Gail Ralphs is one of the key people who keeps things moving in a positive Wa t e r h o u s e , w h o direction at the Ladysmith Arts Council, and you can often find her at the combines mythology, Ladysmith Waterfront Art Gallery. poetry and mystique into works that are soulfully touching. damsels, angels, mer- artist, and entering work to the commuRalphs’s paintings maids and other magi- her studio brings you nity.

Stellar season for Lloyd Niomi Pearson The Chronicle

After a successful season of hurdling, Ladysmith’s Haleigh Lloyd is kicking up her heels in her hometown. The track star, a former CVACs athlete, is home from her second year in the nursing program at the University of Alaska at Anchorage and taking a much-needed break from the school’s Seawolf Athletics team. “I wanted to take the summer off because I never have,” she said. “I could have gone to the Olympic trials if I wanted to, but it’s been a nice break and I’m glad I did it.” Lloyd, a 2010 Ladysmith Secondary

Ladies sought to play Ladysmith Golf Club hosts kids at Mount Brenton tournament

The Ramsay Lampman Rhodes Mount Brenton Ladies Amateur Golf Tournament promises a swinging time and girls on the greens. Now in its 11th year, the Aug. 18-19 tournament is open to all ages and levels of players, although it is restricted to amateurs only. Hole-in-one prizes are $10,000 in cash and a golf cart, and there will also be draw prizes and prizes for the gross and net scores, including TVs and golf course passes. Tee off is 1 p.m. on Aug. 18. “It’s for ladies who love to golf and it’s a two-day tournament, and they get to meet old friends and new friends,” said Dar Michell, tournament committee chair. “It brings business to Chemainus and surrounding areas.” There are currently about 40 golfers from all over the Island registered, but there is room for about 60 more. “We’re hoping to get the numbers up this year,” Michell said. The tournament entry fee is $125 and includes KPs and Long Drive. The fee also includes din-

There is still a limited time to register for the Ladysmith Golf Club’s Kids Open Golf Tournament, being held Aug. 11 at 10 a.m. Organizers are hoping to match or exceed last year’s registration of 22 players. With prizes for everyone and a barbecue after the game, the tournament promises a good time for all. “It’s a fun day,” said LGC president Sylvia Smith. “It’s a good outing, and we encourage parental involvement.” The tournament, which is being co-sponsored by the Chronicle, is open to kids aged six to 14 of all playing abilities. “It’s an opportunity for young golfers to show their stuff,” said Rob Johnson. “Who’s Ladysmith’s best junior golfer?” Johnson said the course is primed and ready to go. “Everything’s looking good; the course is in good shape and we’ve got a bunch of adults help supervise,” he said. At press time, there were approximately nine golfers entered in the tournament. To register or find out more information, call 250-245-7313. There is a fee of $5; however, golfing equipment will be provided.

WILLIAMS, CAROL

April 8, 1965 - July 30, 2012 It is with great sadness we share with you the sudden passing of our good friend, daughter, sister and aunt Carol Susan Williams at the young age of 47. She died in her sleep Monday, July 30th of yet unknown cause. Carol was a wonderful and caring nurse who loved traveling and exploring the great outdoors. Living with diabetes from early childhood made her a true ďŹ ghter and a person who never let it stop her from enjoying life to the fullest. Carol is survived by her Dad, John Williams; lifepartner Syd Hayden; sisters and brothers Grace Frost (Dieter), Bill Williams (Sheila), Beth Robillard, Howard Williams; and numerous nieces and nephews. She was predeceased by her mother Isabel Williams in April 2010. Carol’s quick wit and sense of humour will be missed by all.
