Tulista Park playground is closed until July 1 as the Town of Sidney and Sidney Lions Club replace the equipment and upgrade the park.

Tulista Park’s popular children’s playground is closed until July 1 as the Town of Sidney and Sidney Lions Club replace aging equipment. In February, Lions Club members started a fundraising campaign to raise $70,000 for new playground equipment. The plan was for

the Club to raise money by selling bricks for a memorial wall to be built at the site. The Lions have been involved with the playground for more than 10 years and replaced a portion of the equipment during their 40th anniversary. This year is the Club’s 50th anniversary. Sidney town council agreed on April 14 to contribute $30,000 to the project, topping up the fundraising and setting the project in motion. Work being done includes removing the sand, adding new accessible equipment, improving site drainage, enlarging the picnic area and placing it on artificial grass (the rest of the playground will be on wood chips), revised seating and tables as well as expanding the playground by 123 square meters. editor@peninsulanewsreview.com

Three Stelly’s Secondary students are doing their part to help victims of the civil war in the Central African Republic by hosting a fundraiser for Doctors Without Borders (DWB). Rhys Sanders, Armand Birk and Connor Williamson decided to spearhead the fundraiser after learning about the conflict in the Central African Republic during a Model UN conference last year. “That’s when we really began to see that the issues were a major problem. We decided then we wanted to do something to help, but as high school students there were only so many options,” explained Birk. Williamson said they looked into organizations helping those affected by the civil war and decided on Doctors Without Borders. “It’s by far one of the most trustworthy and hands-on aid groups working in the area and because we wanted to be able to do something tangible to make a difference, we chose Doctors Without Borders,” said Birk.

High esteem for teachers Send in your choice for Great Teachers

Celebration time ■ Black Press, Staples and Thrifty Foods encourage you to nominate a grade school teacher you feel is making a difference in the community. From all nominations, one teacher each from the elementary, middle school and secondary levels will be honoured at a gala in June. To nominate, visit vicnews.com/contests/ by May 25 and click on Great Teachers. All nominators are entered to win a $50 Thrifty’s gift certificate.

Don Descoteau News staff

Over the past six weeks, we’ve spoken with numerous people about the role of school teachers and the positive impact they have in our communities. Through a series of stories published in Black Press’ community newspapers, we’ve prompted readers to think about excellent educators and nominate them for recognition through our Great Teachers campaign. Co-presented by Staples’ School Tools and supported by Thrifty Foods, Great Teachers is a way of honouring individuals inside and outside the classroom. “We are in the final days of the campaign and we’d like to encourage parents and others to nominate a special teacher,” said Black Press group publisher Penny Sakamoto. “It’s not too late. It’s a great way to end the school year and concentrate on the positive impact of teachers and how schools are the core of community life.” Readers nominating teachers at vicnews. com/contests have used such words as “positive relationship,”

“significant impact,” “patient and kind,” to describe nominees. The submissions are inspiring and indicate the high regard in which teachers are held. Ralf Mundel, senior director of marketing and communications for Thrifty Foods, says teachers are “vital to the fabric of our communities” and help kids become rounded indi-

viduals. “Think back on your childhood, or ask your kids about their most impactful memories and generally something about a teacher ranks high on that list. That’s powerful,” he says. For Thrifty’s, which frequently supports community groups at the grassroots level, being part of initiatives such as Great Teachers

is something “interwoven into our DNA since 1977,” Mundel adds. Staples is familiar with the extra work teachers do to make their lessons special, says School Tools (staplesschooltools.ca) co-ordinator Harmen Berghuis. “I think they deserve all the recognition we can give,” he says. ddescoteau@vicnews. com

OUR VIEW

One minute is too long

unning errands? Own a dog? Is it hot outside? If you’ve answered yes to any of those questions, there’s only one option: leave the dog at home. Unless that errand is taking the dog to the park, the groomer or the vet, ask yourself why it has to come with you on your shopping trip or that quick nip ‘round to the bank. Sure, a pet can be a great companion, but why run the risk of a broken window or visit from the police at best — or a dead dog in a hot car at worst? Yeah, those sad eyes looking up at you when you grab the car keys can tug at the ol’ heartstrings. Better to disappoint poor old Rover than get stuck in the checkout lane at the store or stop for a quick chat — while leaving the animal in a veritable sauna. The death of six dogs this week after being left in a dog-walker’s vehicle, is a stark reminder of just how quickly something can go wrong. It’s also a reminder to leave the pets at home if you need to go on an extended errand. Even a short one can expose a pet to unbearable heat and suffering. The old excuse, “I was only gone for a minute” doesn’t fly — no one is ever away from their vehicle for only a minute — and has become the lame excuse of negligent pet owners. In that so-called minute, we can expect more and more people to report a pet locked in a vehicle. That means the police and SPCA will respond and the owner will face a stern lecture at best, a charge of negligence at worst. And that’s only the tip of the iceberg if the animal is suffering or dead. At the same time, people will often take matters into their own hands (people can be passionate about animals) and break car windows to rescue dogs in distress. Don’t expect them to be sympathetic to your plea that you were only “gone for a minute.” Be a responsible pet owner. Leave Fido at home on a hot day when it’s time to run household errands. Only take the dog with you when its time to go to the lake, dog park or other destination that will get your companion out of the car.

Be a responsible pet owner. Leave Fido at home on a hot day

Question

of the week

YOUR VIEW

Never underestimate grey power Reader B. Russell may be aware of the upcoming municipal election in November for a new mayor and council members. All eligible residents and taxpayers are entitled to cast their votes. Seniors, who moved here from other provinces, have made vast contribution of monies invested to the benefit and economic development to the Town of Sidney and are entitled to voice their opinions, as are other taxpayers, simply by choice of names when voting. Grey power can remove council members by unseating them at election time. Never underestimate the powers that be! Caroline E. Whitehead Sidney

why don’t we just grant more undeserved high school diplomas to further dilute our educational ranking on the world scale? No wonder Christy Clark wants to avoid the Island. (I’m not a Liberal or Conservative supporter, just a tax payer!) I’m really pleased to see so many of these letters: it simply hardens more of those among us to reactionary thinking. It almost seems as if we have a locus of anarchy here; no wonder we don’t get a lot of federal and provincial funding. Ernest Wahl North Saanich

Polarizing letter writers

With respect to Mr. Sketchley’s letter in the Wed., May 14 PNR, “Sidney’s alphabet soup”, I am writing to assist him and other readers with understanding the existence of the so-called ‘alphabet soup’. Mr. Gagnon initiated some clarification in his response in the May 16 edition. As the president of TIDES, The Island’s Destination & Event Service, I would like Mr. Sketchley to know we are a business based in Sidney providing event and travel management. Certainly, he is correct it is an acronym but we are not “a committee that gets little done.” Quite the opposite actually

I just love to read your many radical letters about what the federal and provincial governments are not doing for the people. The letter appearing in your May 14 Peninsula News Review is another fine example. Let’s see ... 20 per cent of B.C. students don’t graduate from high school. What can we do? How about dumping gobs of funding into a questionable system where the desired outcome (from the teachers’ union viewpoint) is to gain the desired ratio of one teacher per student. There’s another possible solution:

Last Week

we asked you:

with successful community events such as Sidney’s Shakespeare by the Sea, Pumpkins on the Pier and Sip & Savour. There are community organizations responding to the lack of direction and action with respect to challenges facing Sidney businesses and residents. The Sidney Tourism Improvement Group (STIG) was established to be active in bringing more visitors to Sidney. SOS, Save Our Sidney, is a relatively new group established following the announcement of two new regional commercial centers. SOS members, both residents and business owners, recognize this and are engaging the community to prepare for new commercial competition. Both these groups are operated by volunteers contributing their own funds. Neither are “hiring consultants to do unrepresentative surveys and make action plans”. As the quote goes, “nature abhors a vacuum”, when there is no action on important elements of our community and its survival, people will join together to initiate action in response to the need to do so. Current leadership in our community is lacking. Change is upon us. We need to embrace these changes and move forward. Who will lead us? Steve Duck Sidney

NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING NOTICE HEARING

One-day strikes with picket lines Continued from page 1

Some SD63 facilities will be open, including before- and after-school child care, the Cordova Bay 55+ Seniors Centre, and the Royal Oak and North Saanich middle schools Neighbourhood of Learning Centre Activities. Sherri Bell, superintendent of Greater Victoria, says it will be a similar situation the following day in her school district. On May 20, the BCTF rejected the province’s offer of a $1,200 signing bonus for an agreement by the end of the school year. BCTF president Jim Iker said the bonus doesn’t make up for the government’s wage offer of 6.5 per cent over six years. A simultaneous plan

to cut teacher wages five per cent or more because of strike action is “just so disrespectful, so unnecessary, and we’ll be dealing with it at the Labour Relations Board,” Iker said. The one-day strikes with picket lines will be staged at one group of school districts in each of the first four days next week, with teachers returning to work across the province on Friday, May 30. Education Minister Peter Fassbender said the signing bonus and reducing the contract term from 10 years

to six were significant efforts to move toward a settlement. “Unfortunately the announcement today says that the BCTF feels that disrupting classrooms, affecting children and their families is going to help to reach a settlement,” Fassbender said. Iker reiterated the union’s position that more pay, more teachers and a return to contract language guaranteeing class size and special needs support are needed to reach a settlement. - with files from Tom Fletcher

month for a fundraiser that is sure to please. On Thursday, June 5, Parkland senior acting students from Fine Arts teacher Christine Irving’s acting class will join forces with the senior culinary students from teacher Heidi Hackman’s class for their final project of the school year — a night of comedy complete with a tasty, three course meal. “At 6:30 p.m., guests will be welcomed with

appetizers then entertained by the first show, Dinner at 8, Dead by 9,” explained Irving. “Guests will then be treated to a feast before the second show, And Then There was One, which takes place on a deserted island owned by a mysterious millionaire and features a bevy of unusual characters.” After the second show, guests will finish the evening with a tasty dessert, Irving added.

Tickets for the evening event are $20 in advance with reserved seating through the box office at Parkland Secondary. Stop by the school or call to reserve tickets by Visa or MasterCard at 250-655-2736 until June 4 (dietary needs such as vegetarian or gluten free options will be accommodated and must be mentioned when purchasing a ticket). reporter@peninsula newsreview.com

Restoring a rare Mustang to magnificence Everybody remembers their first car but very few people hold onto that set of wheels long into adult life.

Safety Tip: As high school seniors prepare for graduation, it’s important that parents make sure their teens are also planning for a side ride home after all of their festivities.

BMW X5:Changes stable but significant Zack Spencer

This all-new BMW X5 is the latest version of the mid-sized luxury SUV that helped the manufacturer expand into markets beyond those where luxury, performance sedans reside. Some younger readers might not remember a time when BMW, and other German makers, didn’t have SUVs. But it wasn’t too long ago that the original X5 came out and transformed the Bavarian automaker into more of a full-line manufacturer. Ever since they started making SUVs, their sales have not retreated.

BMW HANDOUT

As is stands right now, the X5 combines two classes of SUV, the mid-size five-seat market and the seven-seat market. Truth be told, this should really be looked at as a five-seater, there will be a new, bigger seven passenger BMW coming in the next year or so. Looks When you look at this new model, it is instantly recognizable with just small changes such as more accent lines. I had a chance to park it next to the smaller X3 and, other than the front grille and headlights, they share a striking resemblance to Follow us at:

torque. And this thing flies, it is so fast and stable, it makes this big rig dance in every situation. In addition, there are various driving modes that set up the engine’s response, the steering feel and the suspension stiffness. Even in the most relaxed setting, this V8 engine is always up to a quick passing manouevre. Yes this is a blast to drive but 445hp is maybe too much. For gasoline buyers the 3.0L six-cylinder turbo model is more practical. With 300hp and 300 lb-ft of torque, the XDrive 35 can make a run to 100km/h in 6.6 seconds. Not bad for a 6-cylinder. The XDrive 35d turbo diesel should prove to be the most popular. The 3.0L diesel has 413 lb.-ft. or torque and sips fuel. The diesel X5 can make a run to 100km/h in 7.6 seconds but achieves just 8.7L/100km in mixed city and highway driving. All models come with an eightspeed automatic to help get the most out of each litre of fuel. Verdict X5 models can be equipped with several different packages like sport packages, luxury packages and more. So starting at $63,000 and up, the base price can be a bit misleading. This is an expensive product but a superbly well designed and engineered one. To be honest, other than the price, there is a lot to like here, this is a great BMW. It is so well put together, it drives superbly and it comes with three equally good engines. If you are in the market for a big luxury SUV, the new X5 does a lot right. zack.spencer@drivewaybc.ca

each other, this is just a bigger version of that wildly popular SUV. All X5 models come standard with 19-inch wheels but BMW packages their products to be offered with bigger wheels depending on whether they want the sport package or not. Around the back, the same clamshell lift gate found on the last two versions remains intact. The top flips up and the bottom drops down. It makes it a reach to get inside the cargo area but many owners like this feature for sliding items in and out and being able to sit on the tailgate. Inside The inside of the X5 is a study in small changes that pay big dividends. The centre screen is huge, the iDrive controller is bigger and navigating around this system is much easier than it has been in past versions. The materials used inside the cabin are first rate. The wide and relatively flat dash makes the cabin feel huge and the big comfortable seats make for an effortless place to spend time. As mentioned, the X5 can be equipped with a third row of seats but they are not that great for space, the GL-Class from Mercedes is a better option. When equipped with five seats the cargo space is vast. Drive There are three different version of the X5, two that are very popular and the V8 version that is almost overkill. My test unit was the Xdrive 50 and it’s powered by a twin-turbocharged 4.4L V8 engine. This produces a whopping 445hp and 479 lb.-ft. of

press briefing would take place. On the way, the adventure took us through a section of the F1 Grand Prix track; hairpins, winding roads and silky smooth tarmac paved the way. For a moment, I felt like a champion. The Bologna-based brand’s revised sport cruiser is one that commands attention. Even if you don’t want to look, its black hole-like nature won’t let your gaze escape. Besides, you’ve already been hooked by its exhaust note and the mellifluous sound from its 1,198 cc engine, so it’s too late to even attempt to look away. Within moments of parking these bikes, crowds amassed. Never mind the Porsche GT2 RS a few metres away. Never mind the Ferrari California with pristine paint and glimmering rims. Ducatis steal all the attention. Styling-wise, they have matured since

its introduction in 2012. Though it is immediately recognizable, it has been tweaked. There’s now full LED illumination, a new headlamp cover and mounting and more. Giving it the strong road presence that it has is its commanding and bulbous body, matched with a 240 rear tire; a tire that was specifically made in conjunction with Pirelli for the Diavel. Though it might look like a handful, it’s not. And if a “handful” was measured in weight, you’re only looking at, or handling, 205 kg (452 lbs.) Speaking of hands, its handling is quite superb. Taking on the twisty roads won’t leave you scraping pegs like other cruisers. With three modes (sport, touring and urban) to channel the 162 horsepower (100 hp if you’re in urban mode) from Ducati’s new Testastretta 11° DS engine, it won’t take off on you without your consent. With crowds taking photos of this beautiful beast, and asking to take a photo with it, I couldn’t see any other vehicles generating such fervor. It generates even more zeal when on the open road. But for now, the temporary celebrity status that these bikes bring are a welcome change from the norm. And knowing that an item that costs at least 10 times less than the vehicular ornamentation perfectly placed in Monte Carlo – the Diavel carbon white model has an MSRP of $21,995) could be considered cheap thrills, right? I guess it’s all relative. alexandra.straub@drivewaybc.ca

Monte Carlo, Monaco: Everywhere you look, wealth abounds. The parking spaces in front of the Hotel de Paris and Casino Monte Carlo, Monaco, are filled with vehicles no less than $200K. I feel a lot out of place. Ferraris, Maseratis, Bentleys, Porsches, Bugattis (yes plural) and other exotic vehicles seem to be a dime a dozen. Even the taxis are premium makes and models. The occasional “affordable” vehicle (like a 3 Series BMW or an Audi A5) manifests itself, but they already know they won’t be getting the premiere parking spots. So how do you get noticed in an area where such opulent sheet metal resides? A place where spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on a vehicle is the unwritten rule, and even that might not be enough for a second glance. The answer is simple: the 2015 Ducati Diavel. You can hear one coming from a mile away (sorry, 1.60934 kilometres if we are to be continentally correct). The devilish Ducati, even with the stock exhaust – which is new for the 2015 model year – could easily conjure sinister thoughts. The low-note grumble and throaty belligerence characterizes the twin pipes that are aggressive yet sublimely pleasing to the ears. Now imagine amplifying that sound by more than 30. A flock of carbon white-trimmed Diavels set out to congregate in the main plaza of Monte Carlo where our

WHY PAY MORE? DRIVE A LITTLE, SAVE A LOT!

As a busy mom and running my own business as a counsellor at “Insight to Action Counselling Services”, I need to have a reliable vehicle and also access to a loaner vehicle when work is being done to my car. My family has purchased two vehicles from Galaxy Motors. One for myself and one for my husband after he was in an accident that wrote off his previous car. I have found the staff to be professional and friendly and also efficient. They have a great service center that provides thorough explanations of the work being done and future work that may be necessary. The staff is not pushy on the sales side OR in the service department. I also appreciated that there was an insurance person there when we purchased so that we didn’t have to run around town.”

YOUR HEALTH President’s own story: 15 years ago I started to have arthritis, prostate, kidney, snoring and sleep apnea problems, which were all helped quickly with natural health products. I made it my life’s purpose to help others. Nick A. Jerch

Frequent BATHROOM TRIPS?

Bell Prostate Ezee Flow Tea #4a

Men have relief in 3-5 days from dribbling, burning and rushing to the toilet. Relaxes blood flow for better erections. Helps also with male incontinence. Works in virtually every case. If you are considering surgery, try this tea first. Hundreds of delighted men testifying on our web site: æHad to get up every hour at night. Now I get up once a night. Joseph Whittaker, Sewell, NJ æ I cancelled my prostate surgery. Get up once a night. I'm so happy not to have to face the torment of a prostate operation and possible incontinence and impotence. Albert E. Blain, 74, Schumacher, ON æEven after TURP prostate surgery and microwave therapy had to get up many times. Now down to 1-2 times. Tea is 100% better than drugs. Robert G. Stocker, Eustasis, FL æAfter 1st year drinking tea my PSA went down to 4.5; after 2nd year to 2.9; after 3rd year to 2.3. I highly recommend the tea. A real life saver. Thomas M. Thurston, Forsyth, GA <Women suffering with incontinence, #4a NPN 80022782 bladder infections, UTIs ask for Bladder Control Tea for Women #4b. Guaranteed relief within days.

Allergies are a modern epidemic

By Dr. Chakib Hammoud, M.H.,PhD. What people experience: <I tried numerous other remedies all my life that were not effective. Since I discovered Bell Allergy Relief. I do not have a stuffy nose and itchy eyes when pollen season comes around. I don’t have to walk around like a doped zombie anymore. Leonard Waldner, 44, Delia, AB < For 20 years my life was miserable with sneezing, watery eyes and sinus pressure year-round on most days. I was amazed. On 3rd day all allergies were gone. It was like magic. Becky Gerber, #24 NPN 80043542 25, Dover, OH <Golfing without allergy attacks I tried all the medications and none worked. After taking 1 capsule in the morning I’m completely free of all symptoms. Richard Gamez, 74, San Antonio, TX morning. Therese Noto, 58, New York, NY.

SNORING? SLEEP APNEA?

As recommended by Dr. Gifford-Jones M. D. Helps to reduce the time it takes to fall a sleep. In most cases also stops snoring and gasping for air (sleep apnea) first night. Stops torturing your partner all night. Good sleep prevents being tired next day. Tired people work only at half capacity. What people truly experience: < I really didn’t snore or gasp for air anymore. I sleep through the night and feel rested and refreshed in the morning. Mark Wilson, 40, Hudson, NH < Sleep apnea capsules worked first night! For last 15 years I had sleep apnea and my doctor made me buy a CPAP machine, which I could not use. Finally #23 NPN 80045172 Bell #23 helped the first night and every night thereafter. Like a miracle. Unbelievable. Karen Braun, 67, Glace Bay, NS < For 20 years I was waking up frequently gasping for air. During the day I would start napping every time I would sit down, because I was tired. Since taking Bell #23 sleeping 6 hours is heaven. It made a substantial change in my life. Mary C. Myrick, 62, Jackson, MS <It is such a joy not having to use the CPAP machine. I have had sleep apnea for 10 years. Using Bell#23, my wife says there is no more snoring or stoppage of breathing. It is such a joy to be able to roll to left or right with no hose or mask to deal with. Thank you Bell for a great relief. I suggest anyone with these problems to try it. You will be overjoyed with the results. Wayne Burse, 63, Beamsville, ON.

ACNE

Works by cleaning blood from the inside, instead of attacking skin with creams or washes from the outside and leaving actual cause untreated. Actual Results. <After 1 week my severe acne became quite mild and after 2 weeks it had completely Eczema & Psoriasis vanished. I suffered for 5 stressful years of having acne and extremely dry, irritated skin. Bell Help for Skin Disorders“saved my life”. My skin is now beautiful and you would never know I suffered from acne and other skin problems for years. Zach Lustgarten, 18, Oshawa, ON RED NOSE/CHEEKS ROSACEA gone in less than a week. Was fighting it for 30 years with topical creams and prescriptions without getting satisfaction. I live a healthy life, don’t smoke and don’t drink. People thought a reddish face comes from drinking. This is a myth. Will take it for the rest of my life when needed. Donald E. Gillespie, 56, Innisfil, ON PSORIASIS<I had severe psoriasis over 95% of my body. Last 5 years I have stunned every doctor and dermatologist. I spent tons of money on remedies. After I got Bell Help for Skin Disorders, I’ve never seen anything work as fast in my life. Within 2 days I saw my skin clearing up. I’m #60 NPN 80044199 speechless. It was inexpensive compared with what I spent before. Jessica Shantz, 25, Dawson Creek, BC ECZEMA For 6 years my family doctor and dermatologist tried many medications and creams. After taking Bell Help for Skin Disorders for just a few days my eczema itching stopped and my face started to clear up. After suffering so long I am amazed with the results.

dren will like the two-stage pop up integrated booster cushions. Volvo has 60 years of experience producing wagons and that shows in this line. The inclusion of the fun factor in the R-Design version is a smart move for a company trying to win new friends among affluent car buyers. Make no mistake, these are prestige vehicles with a fitting price tag. The base four-cylinder models start at around $42,000 and the R-Design driven by your truly topped $51,000. I’ve also driven – if briefly – other Volvos equipped with the new Drive-E four-cylinder engines, mated to 8-speed auto transmissions, and they are remarkable. They offer a performance more akin to a typical 6. So, give the base models a shot if you are not looking for a pulsating ride in a Volvo. Did I just say that? keith.morgan @drivewaybc.ca

The BMW GINA Light Visionary Model was first conceived in 2008 but still looks very futuristic. It is one of 17 concept cars from across Europe and the US to be displayed at “Dream Cars: Innovative Design, Visionary Ideas” at the High Museum of Art in Atlanta. The GINA Light Visionary Model features a virtually seamless outer skin, consisting of a flexible fabric material stretched over

a movable substructure. Furthermore, functions are only enabled when they are actually needed. The most striking example of this is the headlight design. In normal position, when the headlights are not active, they are hidden under the special fabric cover. As soon as the driver turns on the lights, the contour of the front end changes. drivewaybc.ca

Unique homes require unique buyers Basil Oldfield’s historic home among the region’s most off-beat

4,574/4,783 ANOTHER UNUSUAL HOME Greater Victorians are no stranger to strange homes.

Narrow livin’ – In 1994 Joe Loiacono built a 1,200-square-foot house that measures only 10-feet wide. After a failed attempt to have his setbacks reduced on the 25-foot-wide lot, Loiacono built the twobedroom home to code at 244 Cadillac Avenue in Saanich. Apparently his neighbours weren’t impressed. How could you not be? Do you have a homebuying or selling story you’d like to share with us? Email ddescoteau@ vicnews.com To advertise in Homefinder, contact Oliver Sommer at: osommer@black press.ca

Natalie North Tucked away on the top of Saanich Mountain sits an unimaginably cool home. A break in the firs off Old West Saanich Road opens to its curious three-storey spherical structure. That this place was envisioned and expertly crafted by one man in the ‘70s is cool, but that it still revolves at the flick of a switch – unimaginably so. The owners reject the notion of selling the piece of local history. If the family were to put it on the market, as with any unique home, however, they would be facing certain challenges. “Unique means just that, and you need a unique buyer,” says Greater Victoria Real Estate Board president-elect Guy Crozier. “Value is directly related to supply and demand. If you have a lower demand, it could mean a lower value or a long search for the unique buyer for a unique home.” The visionary behind the house bears a family name well-known in the area: Basil “Barney” Oldfield. Though Basil has been gone since 1978, the lore he created with his revolutionary designs and somewhat off-beat ways remains. His nephew, Rob Oldfield now runs the family business, Prospect Lake Garage Inc., founded by Basil and his brother Brian Oldfield in 1934. At the garage, just a few kilometres down the road from the roundhouse, framed photos of Brian and Basil grace the top shelf behind the counter. Rob greets customers, recalls his uncle’s ways and offers what he can about the home – an

Basil “Barney” Oldfield’s rotating house was built in 1977 and can still turn at the flick of a switch today. Inset: Rob Oldfield, co-owner of the home would like to see the piece of history stay in the family, along with the family business, Prospect Lake Garage, which Barney co-founded back in 1934.

in-progress project which only Basil understood. “He was sort of his own fellow,” Rob says. “He never got married; never had children, just puttered on his own up there and cut his own hair.” The building began in the mid’60s, and was to include an elevator. Basil fell ill with cancer before that could happen, but the home remains a mechanical marvel. Through a carport door beneath the home, its circular cellar reveals the heart of the house’s rotating mechanism. Doors marked with a high voltage warning conceal water and sewage pipes and presumably the three-quarter horsepower electric motor from a car transmission and two gear boxes. Shafts from the gear boxes propel rubber wheels on a metal track overhead. The robust thing of beauty is able to run at two speeds: low gear yields a oncedaily revolution; high gear will take

you 360 degrees in just three minutes. Unlike other revolving structures, which tend to have a stationary centre, the entire welded steel frame structure rotates. Electricity is transferred through brushes in constant contact with the wheel. “How do you figure that sort of thing out in the 1950s and ‘60s?” Rob says. “No nails was his claim to fame, so it’s kind of a noisy house to live in because when you step on the outside porch, you step on the metal and the whole thing kind of moves a bit because it’s sitting on wheels.” The noise isn’t a factor for its inhabitants. One couple, Cathy Cook and Francis Sullivan, have called Basil’s home their own since moving to Victoria in 1989. “It’s pretty wild,” Sullivan says. “When you think about the number of welds that went into this place, the amount of metal.”

2.75% †

Sullivan is impressed by the craftsmanship, but clearly the novelty of living in a twobedroom, one-bath home that rotates has faded. It’s the seclusion of the area that has kept the two longterm, though flicking the switch labelled “HOUSE” is a more of party trick he hasn’t forgotten. “After 25 years, it’s not a big deal anymore,” Sullivan says. “But it’s amazing that it still works after all these years.” And Rob would like to see it stay within the family for many years to come. If Basil’s great-niece, 22-year-old Christi Oldfield is any indication, there will be demand for creative living well into the future. “It’s important to me as an Oldfield to keep (the house) in the family,” Christi says. “I think it’s the coolest thing.” nnorth@saanichnews.com
