Flaming lanterns released into sky It might have seemed like a good idea at the time, but sending up as many as 20 burning “sky lanterns” last Thursday evening was dangerous and reckless, according to the Campbell River Fire Department. Sky lanterns – also known as Chinese lanterns – are small hot air balloons made of paper with an opening on the bottom where a small fire, such as a candle, is suspended. They are typically launched for play or as part of a festivity. “The release of these open flame devices during the extreme fire conditions and fire bans in place is extremely dangerous and reckless,” Deputy Fire Chief Thomas Doherty says. “We are extremely fortunate that we were not faced with multiple fires spread across a large area of the city (that) night.” The fire department received reports of as many as 20 sky lanterns being released into the air on the beach in front of Dahl Road. A number of these lanterns travelled a fair distance inland before coming down and landing in residential areas and remote areas of brush. One sky lantern was reported landing on a cedar shake roof and fortunately Continued on Pg. 3

Les Lengyel is familiar with adversity. He’s faced it nearly his entire life, ever since an accident left him without the use of one of his arms. But Lengyel’s most recent challenge – running for a seat on city council – may be his toughest yet. The father of two adult children, a daughter, 25, and a son, 21, and a trained accountant and retired development planner, believes the adversity he has faced in the past makes him a strong candidate. “I lost my left arm and most of the use of my right hand in an electrical accident when I was

7-years-old and I have lived my whole life learning to do more with less,” Lengyel, 65, says. Doing more with less is Lengyel’s life motto and one he plans to use throughout the campaign leading up to the Nov. 15 city election. Lengyel says the city as a whole needs to learn how to do more with less. “Part of the plan should take into consideration property tax relief for the citizens of Campbell River. We’ve had years of tax increases, primarily due to the shift from industrial to residential,” Lengyel says. “Working together, we should be able to find other sources of revenue. We should be able to do more with less, utilizing our potential to attract more sustain-

Les Lengyel

able business and more residents to help share the load of the property taxes.” A large part of Lengyel’s doing more with less, involves adopting a greater reliance on the help of volunteers in order to help cut costs. Lengyel points out that the Tidemark Theatre, Museum at Campbell

w o N

www.CampbellRiverMirror.com www.CampbellRiverMirror.com

River and the Art Gallery all have volunteer boards that are extremely effective. Lengyel himself is no stranger to volunteering. In the past he has served on the city’s Advisory Planning commission, the economic development commission, the help forum, and put in 10 years on the Community Partnership Committee at city hall. He’s also an active Rotarian and served as president and treasurer of the Daybreak Rotary Club. Lengyel is also a member and former president of the Campbell River Seniors’ Society and serves on the Museum’s board of directors. But one of Lengyel’s greatest accomplishments is the work he did

in the late ’90s in fighting to have the Inland Highway built with four lanes rather than two. “I was very instrumental in re-instating the four-laning of the highway from Cumberland to Campbell River,” Lengyel says. “After much lobbying, a petition formed which swayed the government of the day to re-instate the four lanes.” Lengyel said part of his success can be attributed to the fact he’s not afraid to ask the tough questions and doesn’t shy away from controversy. “I’m not afraid to ask pertinent questions and do what’s right,” Lengyel says. He believes his experience in finance and accounting will also go a long way.

“I know my way around financial statements and I look forward to analyzing the city’s budget to find ways to do more more with less without any major cutbacks – and that’s important,” says Lengyel, who adds that the biggest hurdle facing the current council is its divisiveness. “The biggest issue is to create a harmonious and co-operative environment at city hall to show an example to the citizens of Campbell River that we should be proud of our city, that we should be promoters of Campbell River to help attract and retain new and existing business,” Lengyel says. “We need a vision, we need a plan, we need to work together to help make the plan and

work together. I have no problem with differing opinions and constructive criticism, but once a consensus is voted on, then we should all have our oars paddling in the water together.” Lengyel says the city is changing and Campbell River needs good leaders at the helm. “We need to affect that change in a positive manner and we need to come up with a plan to retain the potential that’s being created by all the new construction, ie. Hydro’s John Hart project, the new hospital and Berwick’s careminiums,” Lengyel says. “I am a team player and I look forward to working with council to create this plan and implement the plan.”

Body in river is a young man in his 20s, wearing green t-shirt Mystery: Both collarbones and nose broken in the past

Wings and Wheels 3x4

Oyster River came upon human remains lodged in a pothole near the Island Highway. The snorkelers notified authorities, and the RCMP dive team was able to recover the remains. Preliminary anthropological examination has determined the remains to be those of a male, between 21 and 35 years of age, most likely in his 20s. He was between 163 cm and 171 cm tall (5 feet, 4 inches to 5 feet, 7 inches). He died within the past six months, most probably within the past two months. In the past, he had fractured both clavicles (collarbones), probably

A search is on for the identity of a young man whose body was found in the Oyster River on Aug. 4. The B C Coroners Service, assisted by the Campbell River RCMP Detachment and BC Police Missing Persons Centre, is seeking the public’s help in identifying a man whose remains were found in the Oyster River south of Campbell River. On Aug. 4, 2014, people snorkelling in the

Anyone with information which may help identify this man is asked to call: n Regional Coroner Matt Brown at 250 3569133. n Campbell River RCMP at 250-286-6221.

Lanterns: One of three incidents on a busy night control quickly with the assistance of two local excavators and site personnel. The cause of the fire appears to be spontaneous combustion due to the heat generated by the decomposition of materials in the large pile. Shortly after crews were mopping up from this fire, the sky lantern call came in. Fire Chief Ian Baikie said releasing these lanterns is prohibited because they’re not on the list of approved reasons for burning during the current provincial campfire ban.

The first incident occurred shortly after 6:30 p.m., when crews responded to a report of smoke at the yard waste disposal site on Willis Road. On arrival, crews found a fire burning deep within in a large pile of yard waste and mulch. Crews were able to bring the fire under

Later that night, shortly after 2 a.m., crews responded to a recycling bin on fire at the Sportsplex. The bin was fully involved on arrival and was extinguished quickly by crews. This fire appears to be suspicious and is under investigation by RCMP. As the hot dry weather conditions continue, Campbell River Fire Rescue remind the public to use caution, report any smoke sightings immediately and check the local fire restrictions and bans in place.

BCTF dispute causing unintended consequences for outdoor educators Mike Davies CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

Outdoor educators want the teachers and the government to settle their dispute. The majority of the focus in the current labour dispute between the B.C. Teacher’s Federation (BCTF) and the provincial government is on the lack of progress being made by both sides in the negotiation and the uncertainty felt by all parties, including parents and students. Meanwhile, the damage being done to other industries that rely heavily on school being in session is seemingly going unnoticed. One such industry has spoken up, however. In an open letter to Education Minister Peter Fassbender and BCTF President Jim Iker, a faction of the outdoor education community has expressed concern over the situation and encouraged the two sides to find a solution to the dispute. The letter, penned and signed by 16 presidents, directors, owners and founders of outdoor education facilities from across the province, claims that the withdrawal of education services within the public school system is adversely affecting their industry, as well, and

they fear for the education that will be provided once students do return to class if an all-important aspect of that teaching is removed. “Outdoor education plays an important role in students’ development,” the letter reads. “Shy students shine, new stars emerge, accomplishments bolster confidences, bonds form through shared experiences and challenges are overcome, all in a wilderness setting. Students learn leadership, teamwork, initiative and the value of being in and connoting with nature. Stereotypes, preconceptions, attitudes and barriers are easily dropped. “With the withdrawal of [public education] services, outdoor education opportunities have been taken away from thousands of B.C. public school students,” according to the letter, and Jamie Boulding, president of the Strathcona Park Lodge and Outdoor Recreation Centre said it would be a shame if that continues, not just economically for their industry, but also for the societal loss it would create. The loss of these educational opportunities is going unnoticed and unappreciated, he said. “There’s a sociological cost to this,” Boulding

said. “Outdoor education is such a big part of what we think is important as a society, and to not have that available…it’s a huge missed opportunity for the kids. For those who value out-of-classroom education, this could cause irreparable harm. There are unintended consequences to these things.” Part of that harm. according to Boulding, is the economic fallout. “We’re lucky [at Strathona Park Lodge] in that we have a diverse business and we’ll survive,” he said, “but there are some folks [in the industry] that are going to be hard-pressed to stay open.” He said that Strathcona Park Lodge “took a huge hit in the spring, and we’ve had a ton of cancellations already for the fall,” adding that many outdoor education facilities are worried about how they will pay staff if they don’t see the normal levels of business this September and October, which is traditionally their busiest time of the year. Much of that business comes from the school system. “Schools that have been coming for 40 years aren’t going to be coming,” he said. “That’s a big deal.” Irwin Harder, general director of Camp Home-

wood on Quadra Island, agrees. “This isn’t just affecting the parents, and kids, and teachers, and people directly involved with the schools, but a lot of people whose bread and butter is tied to the education system.” Harder said that Camp Homewood hasn’t had cancellations for the fall, but he hasn’t been receiving the bookings they normally would have by this point in the year, either. “If we lose some of the bigger groups that normally come, it will have a huge impact on us.” In regards to the whole labour dispute situation, and their group’s intention behind the letter to the minister Fassbender and Iker, Boulding said, “No one likes to see this happening, and I’m supportive of everyone affected. “More than anything, we just want them to figure it out so the kids can get back to learning, and we can get back to helping them learn.” Harder agreed with that, too: “This might be a bit harsh,” he said of the whole situation, “but we’re supposed to have learned the lesson in kindergarten about how to get along. We just want to add our voice to the calls for them to get something figured out.”

Teachers: Schools may not open Sept. 2 Continued from Pg. 1

classes at their school’s office before that meeting, in case picket lines eventually go up, causing other unionized staff to be unavailable to register children, causing the closure of those offices. “At this time, we

remain hopeful that the two parties, with the help of outside mediation, will reach a negotiated settlement,” said the SD72 news release issued Aug. 25. “However, it is possible that schools may not open as usual on Sept. 2.” The release adds that

although registration can take place at the school offices while picket lines are not in place, “Secondary school course changes will not be able to be processed in the usual timeframe given the possibility that staff availability may be limited. We thank

you in advance for your patience and understanding.” Check www.sd72.bc.ca and follow the school district’s social media accounts for updates on how the labour dispute will affect you and your family as the school year approaches.

Cells may return to former police building – for business use RiveRcoRp: Renos proposed to provide meeting space Kristen Douglas Campbell RiveR miRRoR

The city is considering renovating the Enterprise Centre in order to add mini workstations to help small businesses find a home. The entire project is estimated to cost between $243,665 and $290,665 and would add 2,823 square feet of office

space to the Enterprise Centre which is located on St. Ann’s Road, next to city hall. The workspaces, or incubation cells, would typically serve small or start-up businesses which would work in close proximity to the city’s economic development arm, Rivercorp. T h e C h amb e r of Commerce, InFilm, the Volunteer Centre, and Community Futures are also all located within the Enterprise Centre. Elle Brovold, the city’s property manager, said adding the first set of incubation cells would

mean a slight relocation within the building for Rivercorp, Tourism and InFilm. “This space is 808 square feet in size and could provide space for seven to nine standalone workspaces and one private office,” Brovold wrote in a report to city council. “To accommodate the incubation cells, InFilm and Tourism would be required to relocate. “ The incubation workstations would be installed in rooms 12, 13, 15, and 18.” The costs for the first stage of incubation cells

is estimated at $23,280 for interior finishing, electrical and other repairs, plus an additional $7,000 to $27,000 for furniture ($1,000$3,000 per station). A second stage, which would include a women’s cell block with an extra 617 square feet for three standalone private offices, one common space and a washroom, is estimated to cost $74,230. Costs would include demolition, asbestos abatement, interior finishing, a new exit door, and electrical repairs. A third stage, a men’s cell block area that would provide for an additional

the associated costs will need to be considered as the basement storage area at city hall is already at capacity with other archived records.” Parking would also be an issue. The Enterprise Centre currently has 36 parking stalls, one is reserved for handicap parking, five are reserved for staff, and two are for short-term parking. “Even with the current tenants, the demand for parking at this location is quite high,” said Brovold, noting that adding incubation work cells will mean the addition of more vehicles trying to access the Enterprise Centre. “To add another

10-12 vehicles regularly using this parking area would be unsustainable long term and would require an expansion of the parking area or a second parking location. Both solutions would result in substantial costs to the city.” Council was expected to consider Brovold’s report at Tuesday’s council meeting after the Mirror went to press. While Rivercorp and InFilm, which are championing the incubation cells, still need to develop a business plan, city staff chose to divide any possible renovations into four stages in order to provide council with options.

1,015 square feet of space and nine standalone offices, one common meeting area, a storage room and washroom is expected to cost $88,075. Stage four – a large meeting room – involves repurposing the Enterprise Centre’s garage and is estimated at $34,080, with an additional $5,000 for furniture. And Brovold warns there will be other costs along the way. “The men’s cell block area described in the third stage is currently being utilized as storage for city records for various departments,” Brovold said. “Storage at an external facility and

Lorne Parker, operations manager at Strathcona Gardens, said to buy a battery powered machine will cost $21,000 more than what was budgeted in the current financial plan. But he added that the savings will more than make up for the extra dollars. “The new electric ice machines use about 25 cents worth of energy per flood, compared with $3-$3.50 for propane or natural gas machines,” Parker wrote in a report to the regional district

board. “On a full charge, the electric machines can handle approximately 30 rink floods.” Parker said the zamboni will complete, on average, 2,000 ice cleans per year and at a savings of $3.25 per clean, that will work out to $6,500 each year in savings. At the end of the zamboni’s 10-year life expectancy, that will work out to a savings of $65,000. The electric zamboni runs on a battery that is good for five years and costs $10,000 to replace. Parker said going elec-

tric will also help reduce maintenance costs. “The main consideration with electric models is the reduction in operating expenses,” Parker wrote. “Repair and maintenance costs for electric machines are significantly less.” The electric zamboni is catching on and has been used in several communities across B.C. since 2007. The Strathcona Regional District board will vote Thursday whether it will follow suit.

Riverite wins literary award, new book launching in spring Mike Davies CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

ampbell River author Dayle Campbell Gaetz is branching out. After receiving a Gold Moonbeam award in 2013 for her young adult (YA) novel, Taking the Reins, which was also a finalist for the WILLA Award for Young Adult Fiction from the U.S.based Women Writing in the West organization, Gaetz is venturing into another market. This coming spring, Gaetz will be introducing readers to a new, adult-oriented mystery series. After publishing 21 books aimed at readers from seven to 17, Gaetz’ publisher, Victoriabased Orca Books, has added her to their recent line up, “Rapid Reads,” aimed at older readers. It’s not that Gaetz has, until now, focused on YA and children’s stories for any intended reason, but just because, “those are just the stories that I come up with most of the time,” she said. “They’re more suited for children or young people.”

Mike Davies/The Mirror

Local author Dayle Campbell Gaetz kicks back with a book (which happens to be her awardwinning YA novel, Taking the Reins) overlooking the Strait of Georgia.

Part of the reason her mind works in that way, she thinks, is because, “Nine to 13 was probably my favourite age,” she said. It’s a magical age where children are finding freedom from their parents and discovering who they are, and before the responsibilities of adulthood rear

their head. “You don’t think you’re ever going to grow up,” she said, making it a special time. “At least, I didn’t,” she laughed. Her earlier YA books would be considered “historical creative nonfiction” by some, as she would often create her characters and place

them within real historical contexts, and then “watch” what happened, she said. “Sometimes your characters do things you weren’t planning. That’s wonderful,” she said. For example, while she was in the midst of writing one book, she stumbled across the

Our View

Ice Bucket Challenge a cool fundraiser Go ahead, take the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge. You’ll be cool if you do it, in more ways than We say: The right one. Most of us, by now, have seen kind of trend for our Facebook friends or celebrities participating in what has been a wildly the hot summer successful fundraiser for ALS societies of 2014 around the world. The concept is simple and fun – douse yourself with a bucket of ice water, make a donation to your local ALS society, and challenge three others to do the same.

The ice bucket challenge has been exactly the right kind of fundraiser for the summer of 2014. In modern times, many of us are goofing off for the sake of a YouTube clip anyway, so we might as well do it for a good cause. The ALS Society of Canada was reporting last week that including its provincial affiliates, the ice bucket challenge had raised some $800,000 and counting. This summer’s donations are a hundred-fold beyond anything the society has ever seen. A lot of people have had some laughs dumping ice water on their head, but for most, the ALS Ice Bucket

Challenge isn’t just a thoughtless stunt. Facebook friends are reportedly ‘policing’ the fundraiser – those who fail to mention ALS in their videos or demonstrate some awareness of the cause are criticized. There is no cure for ALS, but researchers right here in B.C., at the University of British Columbia, could be close to a breakthrough. And our silly stunts could make a difference. It takes a bucket of ice water, a cheque, good intentions and hope. – Black Press

Terry Fox Run gears up

Terry Fox had a single dream: a world without cancer. He sought to reach out to every corner of Canada, and beyond, when he embarked on his Marathon of Hope. Fox ran the equivalent of a marathon a day for 143 days straight on one leg, to raise awareness for the need for research funding. When his own cancer spread, he was forced to stop running but his dream to find a cure for cancer lives on. This year marks the 34th annual Terry Fox Run and Campbell Riverites are invited to keep Fox’s message alive. The Terry Fox Run has been a long standing tradition in Campbell River since 1986. Chris Flood joined this tradition as Run Organizer last year. The community is invited to join him again on Run Day. “The Terry Fox Foundation funds research in all kinds of cancer, believing as Terry did, that we need to conquer this disease once and for all,” says Donna White, Provincial Director for the Terry Fox Foundation British Columbia and Yukon. The Terry Fox Foundation differs from other organizations in that 84 cents of every dollar is donated directly to cancer research initiatives. By participating, you will become an integral part of carrying Terry’s torch and helping your community contribute to the $650 million already raised for cancer research worldwide, in Terry’s name. It is due to the continuous efforts of communities like Campbell River, that money fundraised in Terry’s name has made The Terry Fox Foundation a national investor in cancer research. This year’s event takes place at Frank James Park, on the National Run Day, Sept. 14. Registration is at 9 a.m. with Continued on Pg. 9

Race for a seat on city council gathering speed

Alistair Taylor

Out On A Limb @AlstrT

editor@campbellrivermirror.com

So, the race is on to earn a seat on city council. Coun. Andy Adams has announced he’s taking a run at the mayor’s seat, the mayor announced months ago he’s seeking re-election and two members of the public, Darryn Striga and Les Lengyel have come forward with their intention to sit on city council. It looks like there will be at least two new city councillors given that Andy is going after the mayor’s chair and Ryan Mennie has left town (although finishing out his term via video link). We haven’t heard from our remaining councillors yet – Mary Story, Claire Moglove, Larry Samson and Ron Kerr. I’m sure other people come forward to run for council. It’s going to be an interesting election

given the lines that have been drawn in the sand during this past council term. Incumbent Mayor Walter Jakeway has shown he’s willing to buck trends and go his own way. That appeals to a lot of voters. Adams has also been part of this council which has often seen the mayor on the outside looking in when it came to decisions on spending, taxation and other issues. Even when Adams announced his candidacy a couple of weeks ago, the sentiments on the Mirror’s facebook page were strong for and against. Of course, that’s one of the drawbacks about social media. The ability to respond to news is a good thing but the tone isn’t always the most pleasant. Those strong feelings have always been there over any issue or candidate but

now there’s a quick and easy outlet for them. This election will be fought on social media more than ever. It won’t be for the faint of heart. Hopefully, people will keep it civil and recognize that although people running have a different point of view, it is still a valid point of view. There’s nothing I hate more than the people who comment with a tone of, not only are you wrong, but you’re stupid too. There’s really no need for that. You can be passionate and opinionated but you are not inherently right because you subscribe to one philosophy or another. Civil discourse should be just that, civil. All opinions are valid and all who stand for office deserve respect. They’re entitled to criticism when they say and do things that are wrong but not before

they do them. And not because they express an opinion different from yours. I know, I’m a dreamer. So, let the games begin. vvvv Meanwhile....I’m sure there’s more detail to come but I find the “incubation cells” proposed for the Enterprise Centre weird. First of all, we’re going to spend about $260,000 on renovations to give (rent, hopefully) space to small businesses? Okay, that’s fair enough but they’re going to be divided into mens cells and women’s cells? The irony of using the term cells in the former RCMP detachment did not escape me when I wrote the headline on page 6.

Ruts in road to farmland changes The month-long Agricultural Land Commission consultation closed Aug. 22, and the B.C. government is compiling the feedback received from a province-wide tour and invitation to comment. I can’t tell you much about the official input. The consultation sessions were by invitation only, with no media allowed, and the submissions via website are also not public. I reached Agriculture Minister Norm Letnick as he was traveling around B.C. with his camper van, conducting his own meetings with farmers. He’s not saying much either, except that a summary of the findings should be made public in September as the government considers new regulations. The aim of this exercise is to consider relaxing rules around secondary farmland uses in the Interior, Kootenay and North regions, as well as food processing and retail sales of food and beverages on farmland. Also under consideration is allowing breweries and distilleries, as wine and cider production are now allowed, and relaxing rules to permit more off-farm products to be sold from farms. Letnick defended the 30-day summer consultation as adequate. It’s based on 11 questions developed with staff, farm groups and local government. He’s also not counting how many emails were stacked up by proponents or critics.

Sandra Allen CFP, TEP

Senior Financial Consultant

A post-secondary education is expensive – and very necessary these days. Most students must carefully manage limited financial resources to obtain that degree or diploma -- without accumulating a crushing burden of debt along the way. That’s why students need a financial plan. Here are some practical strategies to help students manage money more effectively: Live economically. Students may choose to live at home (and save money) or move out, perhaps to a different city or province. College and university costs can vary dramatically depending on the institution and province of study. Budget realistically. Allocate financial resources to pay for the many expenses a student will encounter through the school years – fixed costs such as tuition, books, accommodation, transportation, and food, as well as variable expenses like entertainment. Assess against known resources (such as income from investments within an RESP, family contributions and personal savings) and expected income (from part-time or summer employment). Tap into every income source. Before applying for a student loan, check for potential scholarships or bursaries from the school,

Use credit wisely. Used responsibly, credit cards can be helpful in an emergency and for establishing a credit history. Pay yourself ﬁrst. By putting a little bit away each week, a student can begin to invest for the future, save for emergencies or for a major purchase. Take full advantage of government tax relief for students: •

•

Scholarships and bursaries are not taxable when the student is eligible for the Education Tax Credit. Interest paid on a student loan is eligible for a federal non-refundable tax credit when the loan is part of a federal or provincial student loan program.

a wrist shot at the 2:49 mark after a great set up by brothers Tyler and Nolan Welch. Seventy seconds later, veteran forward Gage Colpron tallied unassisted to seal the victory. The two teams battled through a scoreless first period and remained deadlocked until midway through the second when Storm rookie forward Joe Surgenor

finally jammed a loose puck past Cougar’s netminder Grant Payne. Zack Sanderson rounded out the scoring for the locals, converting a nice feed from Michael Olson. Campbell River received excellent goaltending from the tandem of Anthony Ciurro and Kyle Cheema, who combined to stop 43 of 44 shots.

Their shutout bid was broken with just over five minutes remaining on a Victoria power play. The Storm continues its pre-season schedule this weekend with a pair of home games against the North Vancouver Wolfpack. The puck drops at 7:30 p.m. Saturday and Sunday nights at Rod Brind’Amour Arena.

E. Jean Paquette March 1, 1923 August 5, 2014 Mom always disliked her first name, so we are not telling now! Jean was predeceased by her beloved husband Paul, survived by her children Peter Lea and Linda (Philip), and brothers Ross (Serena) and Billy (Judy) and numerous nieces and nephews. Jean was the glue that held an extended family and circle of friends together around the globe. In the age of the internet, her phone and postage bills would prover her happy efforts to stay in touch with friends in England and the U.S. and family from Iqaluit to Ontario, and B.C. to Nova Scotia. Jean let her life by example, showing only her best self to the world and family. Criticism and judgement were not part of her nature. Guidance was offered only when requested; love given always. Through fragile looking in the last years, Jean survived lung cancer, cataracts, and life as an air-force wife. She was far tougher than she looked. Her skills as a bookkeeper helped the family business - Early's Building Supply - grow and prosper over 30 years before selling and retiring with our wonderful Dad. She used those bookkeeping skills again, assisting her condo Strata Council when asked. She will be happy to know that all her accounts are now balanced - though a little miffed at the humour. Thank you to the nursing staff, Dr. Jacobs and all the attending doctors who assisted Mom and us through the last months. At Mom's request, there will be no service. No flowers please; donate to your choice of charities. We gladly welcome friends and family to join us Saturday, August 30, 2014, between 1:00 and 4:00pm, at 303-539 Island Hwy, to pay tribute and commemorate our Mom.

William Douglas Lowe

19, 2014 January 7, 1929 to August 20, Bill passed away quietly following hip surgery last week. He was predeceased by his wife J. Shirley Lowe in March this year. He will always be remembered by his extended family for the fun times at the lake. “Love ya” Bill.

Chamber recognizes Boates’ community leadership 30 30 || CAMPBELL CAMPBELL RIVER RIVER MIRROR MIRROR || WEDNESDAY, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST AUGUST 27, 27, 2014 2014

helly Boates, Managing Partner Chan Nowosad Boates, is the recipient of the 2014 Board of Governors Award for the Business Awards of Distinction. The Board of Governors Award is presented by the Campbell River Chamber of Commerce’s Board of Directors and honors a business person (current or retired) who displays a significant commitment to the success of both their business and the community as a whole; demonstrates business leadership and vision; and

serves as a positive role model or mentor for other business people in the community. “We are pleased to honor Shelly as this year’s recipient in recognition of the success she has achieved in her roles as a business leader, a strong community volunteer advocate and for her mentorship support both within her business and the community at large,” said Mike Boulet, Chamber board chair. Boates obtained her CA designation in January 1995 and in 1996 she became a partner with Chan Nowosad Boates,

Chartered Accountants. The practice has grown over the past 18 years from a small office of 5 to a team of 28. Chan Nowosad Boates is now one of the largest independent accounting firms on the North Island serving the needs of small to large businesses, not for profits, school districts, first nations, credit unions, individuals and estates. Even though work keeps her extremely busy, Boates is an avid long-time volunteer. Along with her continued commitment to Junior Achievement

BC, where she started volunteering in 2009 and continues till today, she has been a director and most recently chair of Community Futures of Strathcona where she served on the board from 2003 till 2014. Her commitment to United Way spans over 11 years and resulted in Boates becoming a member of the Lead Partners where she also served on the Success By Six Community Council of Partners from 2008 till 2011 and the allocation committee of United Way Central and North Vancouver Island.

www.CampbellRiverMirror.com www.CampbellRiverMirror.com

Boates’ volunteer involvement also extended to the Campbell River Minor Hockey Association and Campbell River Community Foundation Golf Tournament. As well, she was a volunteer with the Campbell River Branch of Canadian Parents for French that supported and promoted the French Immersion program with SD72. Through Boates’ volunteer activities and her workplace, she has been exposed to and

NIC orientation day On Tuesday, Sept. 2, North Island College will roll out the welcome mat to host a full program of Orientation Day events for hundreds of students attending college at Campbell River campus this fall. An annual tradition at NIC, Orientation Day is often a student’s first introduction to the people, places, and resources on campus that will make their year a success. Students can locate classrooms, meet instructors, visit the library and bookstore, and get started with confidence. This year’s event will get underway at 8:30 a.m. with complimentary refreshments for students hosted at the Gathering Place by the Aboriginal Education department. Then at 9:30 am, students will attend Program Introductions to learn more about their programs and to meet their instructors, college staff, and North Island Students’ Union representatives. The afternoon continues with a barbecue lunch and a series of popular drop-in workshops. With North Island College and Timberline Secondary sharing facilities, should the BC Teachers’ Federation job action continue, North Island College will be open and college operations will not be impacted, with all programs and services being offered as regularly scheduled.
