Our View
Reconciliation is something we can all do
After six years, countless tears and thousands of emotional accountings of residential school experiences, the national Truth and Reconciliation Commission report came down this week. Rather than making broad-based, sweeping recommendations that are more a state of mind, the report makes nearly 100 specific action points aimed at such things as helping aboriginal people recapture their culture, educating the general population about the country’s aboriginal heritage, and creating government policies and programs designed to enhance our understanding of the importance of that heritage and the distinctiveness of Canada’s aboriginal people. The phrase “cultural genocide” was used to We say: We don’t describe the systematic removal of aboriginal have to wait for from their the government to children homes and families and the residential school take action system’s abhorrent strategy of “taking the Indian out of the child.” It was an attempt to sever the cultural connection that saw aboriginal elders and heads of families pass on their language and other traditional heritage to younger generations. In the 1960s, leaders in Quebec sought to have their province’s “distinct society” – its majority French-speaking population, unique culture and civil law tradition – officially recognized by the government of Canada. Two attempts to entrench such uniqueness in the Constitution, the Meech Lake and Charlottetown accords, failed, as have subsequent referendums on separation. Nonetheless, Quebec and its uniqueness in this country are today recognized as an integral part of Canada’s heritage and cultural makeup. The same recognition must be afforded Canada’s First Nations. Fortunately, work has begun, little by little, to acknowledge aboriginal distinctiveness in Canadian life. Righting past wrongs will take more than simply throwing money at the problem of residual anger and shame over residential school abuses. It will take further inclusionary practices and action by individuals just as much as by governments. Rather than asking, “What does this have to do with me?” or stating, “It wasn’t my ancestors who did that,” we all need to ask ourselves, “What can I do personally to change the way I feel about and interact with aboriginal people in my community?” It starts with systemically re-imagining the relationship between aboriginal and non-aboriginal people on a personal, individual level. It’s about treating all people as fellow human beings, free of judgment, with respect and compassion. It’s something we can all do, regardless of what government policies may be enacted in the wake of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s work. -Black Press

What’s the editor’s take on the Mideast?
So, a guy named Mike Wheately leaves me a message wondering if I’ve been following the situation with Israel and the BDS. My first thought was, “The what?” Well, I get a lot of calls for people wanting to promote their issue and we’re a local paper so I wasn’t that interested in following up on anything to do with Israel. We don’t generally cover international issues in the Campbell River Mirror unless it affects us directly. I know, I know, everything in the world affects us but I mean directly. Is it happening here? Is it happening to someone here or is someone here doing something about it? I mean, directly. So, then Wheately calls again. I’m in so I pick up the call. He asks if I want to do anything about the Harper government’s zero tolerance for material promoting BDS against Israel and their treatment of Palestinians.

important local things for me to devote our paper’s resources to. So, you’re not going to do anything? No. Okay… And he hung up. By the tone of his voice, I could tell he was thinking that I’m just the sort of lackey of the Israelis and Conservative hack that you would expect to find in the mainstream media and I’m willingly suppressing his right to criticize the Israeli government. And colluding with the Tories to boot. Okay, sure. Now, I know everybody has made a decision about my political views one way or the other based on how your issue was handled (or not) in the paper but I would warn you against making conclusions about my personal political and social philosophy unless you know me personally. Guess what, I make decisions on coverage based on journalistic criteria and available time and personpower resources not my personal political view.

Young ladies show their big hearts J.R. RARDON CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
W
hen Phoenix Middle School students Sandrine Daniels and Jessica Revoy began approaching local merchants for donations they intended to distribute to Campbell River’s homeless population, they were met with some surprise. On Wednesday, it was the girls’ turn to be surprised by the outpouring of gratitude they received for their gesture. “It feels really good, seeing how much they appreciate it,” said Revoy. “Knowing how much they care, it’s nice.” The two girls, along with their mothers and teacher Sarah Vernier, visited Lighthouse Soup Kitchen Wednesday at noon to distribute 70 “pack packs” of personal health and hygiene products and water bottles to residents who most need them. The distribution of the bags was the culmination of a classroom project titled What is Home?, initiated by Vernier. It began with language arts exercises and expanded to include community service outreach. Daniels and Revoy had already played music for residents of New Horizons Seniors Home several times, but were inspired to do more after a series of classroom visits by residents living on Campbell River’s streets. Their initial plan was a fundraising walk, with proceeds to be split between the homeless and the SPCA, but the cost of liability insurance quashed that idea. The classmates then chose as their project to provide a few necessities to those homeless by canvassing area businesses and requesting donations. “I had an idea to raise money to provide bags to the homeless of things

they really needed,” said Daniels. Visiting local drug stores, grocers, dollar stores, dentists offices and more, the two were overwhelmed by the response. Shoppers Drug Mart became the de facto title
sponsor of the project by donating not only $1,400 worth of goods, but 100 bags into which the products would be placed for distribution. Items donated included soaps, shampoo, deodorant, toothbrushes and toothpaste,
water bottles, cosmetics, combs for men and hairbrushes for women, along with other personal hygiene products and some cosmetics. Men’s bags also had a razor and shaving cream. Many other businesses contributed products and/or money to the students, including London Drugs and People’s Drug Mart, the Real Canadian Superstore, SaveOn Foods, Thrifty Foods, Walmart and Quality Foods. The City of Campbell River added refillable water bottles to the bags, and Above Shore Dental Clinic and Beyond Beautiful Smiles Dental Clinic chipped in with toothbrushes and floss. “They actually seemed pretty surprised,” Revoy said of the initial response when the students approached the donors. “But they were all very generous with their donations,” Daniels added. Where the girls received money, it was used to purchase items that were not donated in large enough numbers. They pre-packaged 40 bags for women and 30 for men, and had many extra items available to create additional custom
bags that will be distributed to other facilities in the city serving people in need. During Wednesday’s distribution, visitors to the soup kitchen finished their meals and approached, individually or in small groups, a table the students set up on a small raised stage in the corner of the room to receive their bags.
“I’m absolutely ovewhelmed,” said Paul Mason, director of Campbell River Family Services. “It’s such a struggle getting what we need for the homeless in our community. When you see something like this, it restores your faith.” Mason was not alone in his appreciation. Nadine Charlie collected
her bag and began to leave, but turned around and returned to the stage. “I gotta hug these babies; these babies are good,” she said before hugging each of the students. “You’re young ladies; thanks for caring. “You guys got good hearts; keep it up, please. We all need people like you.”

t began as a girl’s night out at the production of Nana’s Naughty Knickers by the River City Players and turned into cash to support quality health care at Campbell River Hospital. Bank of Nova Scotia employees, Sue McDermid and Linda Lyons, thought it would be fun to borrow from the play to support Mammography and so they came up with the idea of a bra decorating contest. They talked their co-workers into the challenge and then invited their clients and customers to vote by

Not hearing clearly when many 7x5.5 people are talking? Many people find that they are no longer able to understand everything, particularly when in the company of others. Engineered in Switzerland, System Audéo V has been designed specifically to understand in group situations.
The majority of those surveyed stated that when exposed to considerable background noise they are able to hear that something is being spoken, but can no longer discern precisely what is being said. The words seem blurred and indistinct. But why is that? The effect tends to manifest itself in company, or in the restaurant. It is the high-pitched tones perceived at the entrance to the cochlea that are decisive when it comes to hearing things accurately. In the majority of cases these parts of the inner ear are the first to be affected by noise or aging. As the high-pitched tones are no longer perceived well, the auditory center of the brain begins to struggle to decode language. It’s a bit like an image that doesn’t have enough pixels.
Hearing sensation! Swiss researchers: Audéo V is superior for conversation.
Without Audéo V
With Audéo V
The New Audeo V hearing aids provide considerable reduction in noise allowing you to focus on speech.
New hearing chip developed Swiss audiologists have developed a new hearing aid chip that is designed to improve speech comprehension in noise, particularly with hearing loss in the high-frequency range. People can test the new Audéo V system by Phonak simply by calling now to do so. The test phase in particular is designed to clarify how speech comprehension can be improved in various situations and what role a new technology called “Autosense OS” plays. The chip recognizes where the person being spoken to
is located and amplifies only his or her voice, while ambient noise is lowered and the optimum hearing programs are seamlessly adjusted. Thanks to several synchronous microphones, the hearing system can detect sound in all directions and select the direction that speech is coming from within milliseconds. According to Swiss researchers, this significantly augments speech comprehension, especially in conversation. Interested people can register for a no-obligation demonstration of the Audéo V by calling 888.408.7377

Celebrating the power of women KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
On the fourth of July, Diane Samouelle (Sam) will be celebrating. No, not Uncle Sam’s bi r t h d ay, but t h e strength of women. Drawing inspiration from her own personal exp er ience, Samouelle has organized a walk for women – the Power of Women – to celebrate the resiliency of women who have bounced back from hardship. “It’s basically just to show the strength and power of women,” Samouelle says. “ The strength of women as care givers, home makers, mothers.” While the walk is a celebration of women, men and children are also welcome to join in the event.
A new walk to celebrate the power of women will begin at Robert Ostler Park on Saturday, July 4.
“It’s from age two to 102, whether you can walk, are in a wheelchair or in crutches,” Samouelle says. Participation is by donation, and Samouelle stresses that people are only to give what they can. “If someone can only afford a loonie or a toonie, so be it,” says Samouelle.
“The purpose of the walk is to make a statement. It’s a strength thing.” But at the same time, it will also help raise money for the local men’s and women’s transition houses. Anyone who would like to take part in the walk should arrive between 9:30 and 10 a.m. the morning of the
3x8 bc childrens hospital
walk; pre-registration
isn’t necessary. The walk begins at Robert Ostler Park on Saturday, July 4 at 10 a.m. and follows along the length of the Sea Walk. Samouelle says there will be no dedicated finish line, rather it’s up to each participant how far they’d like to walk. “This really is just about showing how strong women really are with everything we go through,” she says. “We’re doing this for a reason.”

Council approves the general levy for the entire City budget, but that doesn’t mean you will see that same percentage change on your tax notice. Many factors influence the taxes on a given property making it different from the overall percentage approved by Council. Each year, some property assessments increase while others decrease, so your property assessment change may or may not be close to the average BC Assessment reports – and your taxes may or may not increase to match exactly with the rate set by Council. Another factor is that the City of Campbell River collects taxes on behalf of other groups (Schools, Hospital, Library, Strathcona Regional District, BC Assessment, and the Municipal Finance Authority). They develop their own budgets outside of the City’s control. The rate passed by Council is only for the levy included on the Municipal – City line that appears on your tax notice. Other charges such as water, sewer, garbage and recycling also appear on your notice, but are not included in the general levy. Things to remember about the Home Owner Grant • Residential property owners can claim the Home Owner Grant without paying property taxes. • Banks and financial institutions cannot claim the home owner grant for you. • Unclaimed Home Owner Grants count as unpaid taxes, and are also subject to a 10% penalty if an application is not filed by the July due date. How to apply for the Home Owner Grant • Go online to www.campbellriver.ca and click on “Payments” under “Online Options” then launch the Home Owner Grant application from the link at the bottom of the screen. Use your access code (called “Access” on your tax notice, beside the folio number). • Apply in person at City Hall 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday to Friday, except statutory holidays What is the amount of the grant available? For 2015, the maximum: BASIC Home Owner Grant is $770 ADDITIONAL Home Owner Grant is $1,045 ($770 + $275) Note: The Home Owner Grant amount is reduced or eliminated based on property value and minimum property tax payable. Where do I get a grant application? The grant is located on the bottom of your tax notice that was mailed out at the end of May. If you know your folio number and access code (located on your tax notice), you may claim your grant online through the City website (www.campbellriver.ca). Click on “Payments” under “Online Options”. What are my payment options? Payment methods accepted by the City of Campbell River: • Online banking through your bank • Interac (ensure your daily and/or transaction limit will cover the amount of your payment) • Cheque • Cash Can I pay by monthly installments? Yes! The City accepts payments made by monthly installment through a direct-debit to your bank account. This year’s property tax notice contained an insert outlining the program and an application form for those who wish to make regular monthly payments towards their annual property taxes. The same information and application is available on the City’s website or call 250-286-5715.
What happens if property taxes go unpaid? The City of Campbell River is governed by the Community Charter which legislates a 10 per cent penalty be imposed on any property taxes that remain outstanding after the July 2, 2015 due date (including unclaimed Home Owner Grants). This legislation does not give authority to the City to waive late penalty charges and is applied consistently to all taxpayers. Your payment and Home Owner Grant application (if eligible) must be received by the City of Campbell River on or before the due date to avoid penalty charges. Grants not claimed or incomplete are considered unpaid taxes and will result in penalty charges. Can I defer my property tax payment? The Province of British Columbia has a tax deferral program, which is available to homeowners aged 55 and older, families with children, and persons with a disability. The Property Tax Deferment Program is a loan program that allows you to defer your annual property taxes on your home. To qualify, you must have and maintain a minimum equity of 25 per cent of the current BC Assessment property value, after deducting the UPPER limit of all outstanding mortgages, lines of credit and other charges on your home. There is a one-time administration fee of $60 for a new approved agreement and an annual $10 renewal fee. For more information, please visit www.sbr.gov.bc.ca (see individuals / property_taxes). What do homeowners get for property taxes paid? In 2015, the average* household in Campbell River will pay approximately $195 per month in taxes, user fees and parcel taxes to pay for more than 100 services such as: • Potable water, sanitary sewers and storm water services • Police and fire protection • Emergency response service • Garbage, recycling and yard waste collection • Road and sidewalk maintenance and repair • Street lighting and traffic control • Recreation facilities including the Sportsplex, Community Centre, Centennial Pool, city parks, tennis courts, ball fields, Discovery fishing pier and the new Splash Park • Planning and building inspection services • Bylaw enforcement • Cultural facility grants for the Tidemark Theatre, Campbell River Museum, Maritime Heritage Centre, Haig-Brown House, Campbell River Art Gallery and the Sybil Andrews Cottage • BC transit service • Campbell River Airport services • Environmental monitoring and management • Economic development, tourism and the Visitor Information Centre *Average residential property value is $264,100. DID YOU KNOW? Every $100 the average household pays in taxes is divided between the federal ($50), provincial ($42) and municipal ($8) governments. The municipal property tax payment funds more than 100 different City services.

OF GREEN Ray Grigg
On May 6, Justice Donald J. Rennie of the Federal Court ruled against Marine Harvest Canada and the Minister of Fisheries and Oceans, confirming that the transfer of young salmon infected with piscine reovirus into ocean net-pens was illegal. This victory by Alexandra Morton and her Ecojustice lawyers was dismissed by Marine Harvest as having merely administrative effects that will not impair “the company’s day to day business” or impede “the ongoing transfer of farm-raised salmon between facilities in B.C.” But Justice Rennie’s ruling could have major implications for both salmon farming and wild salmon. First, the ruling confirms that the minister cannot contravene the legislation in the Fisheries (General) Regulations (FGR), which occurred when the salmon farming industry was allowed to transfer diseased salmon into its net-pens. And, second, the minister cannot legally delegate to the

in B.C. matches the strain found in northern Norway in 2007, suggesting that PRV came to B.C. in Atlantic salmon eggs. Since the virus was only identified in 2010, no one knew to look for it when the millions of farmed salmon eggs were being imported into B.C. Genetic sequences of the virus have now been found in B.C.’s farmed Atlantic salmon, as well as in some native steelhead, cutthroat trout, chum and other wild species, suggesting the possible spread of PRV from salmon farms to B.C.’s marine ecology. This is the eventuality that has haunted Morton since she became concerned that salmon farming could import alien diseases to B.C.’s wild salmon populations. The virulence of PRV in wild fish and the extent of its HSMI damage have yet to be determined. But the potential for an ecological catastrophe is heightened by the virus’s ability to mutate readily, particularly in the crowded conditions of salmon farms.

Riders experience the stunning vistas of north and central Vancouver Island from the Mile High Scenic Chairlift at Mount Washington, which opens each weekend in June beginning Saturday.
Catch a lift in June To celebrate the start of the summer season, Mount Washington will be running its popular scenic chairlift rides on weekends in June. The first chair ascends the mountain this Saturday at 11 a.m. “ We’r e o p e r at i n g our Mile High Scenic Chairlift over the next three weekends,” said Don Sharpe, Director of Business Operations and Marketing. “To kick off the summer season,
the resort is pleased to play host to the inaugural Dave Battison Pediatric Sports Medicine Symposium. The conference is intended for anyone who is working with youth and children in sports. Additionally, our wedding season is already well underway, so it makes sense to open early to give everyone an opportunity to see the amazing views from the top of Mount Washington.” Starting this Satur-
day, the resort will have dining and shopping seven days a week. Daily summer operations begin June 28. In addition to the Mile High Scenic Chairlift Rides, there will be Bungee Trampoline, mini golf, kids’ games, play area and a newly designed disc golf course.

Visitors stroll the deck of the HMCS Yellowknife as the Kingston Class Coastal Maritime Defence ship visits the cruise ship dock in Campbell River Wednesday.
Naval tour is ship-shape Cre w ab o ard t he H MC S Yel l ow k n i fe took on the role of tour guides Wednesday as the Canadian Navy shipped docked and opened its decks to the public at the cruise ship dock on Tyee Spit. Hundreds of Campbell Riverites of all ages strolled across the decks and through the bridge, climbed its steep, ladderlike staircases. Younger guests clambered over the deck gun station and inflatable rescue boat and hopped into the captain’s chair for photos. Guided through the Kingston Class Coastal Maritime Defence vessel in groups of 8-12 people, guests visited in a steady stream during two public showings of the ship Wednesday afternoon and evening. They made for a tight fit on the vessel, which typically sails with a crew of 35 to 40. “Our mission is coastal patrol, but also community relations,” said Lieutenant Tom Eagle, watch commander during the early tour. “A few weeks ago we were in Port Alberni and had 800 visitors over a whole weekend.” The Yellowknife, stationed at CFB Esquimalt, was on its way home from a stop last weekend in Stewart, B.C.’s most northerly port. But the ship can also range far from Canadian waters. Last fall, Yellowknife took part in a joint task group exercise with U.S. and Japanese maritime defence forces off California. Afterward, it joined another ship in Ecuador

Is there a food you should not be eating, are you not getting enough sleep, are you not moving your body enough, is there an organ in your body that needs extra attention or is there a deficiency in your nutrition that would perk you up? Start with one change. Here are some simple suggestions but just try one at a time: stop eating wheat, don’t eat anything after 7pm, get to bed at 10pm instead of 11 or 12pm, drink more pure water, start walking 30 minutes every day or start a gratitude journal.

The local We-Wai-Kai Band had the largest contingency of players with four teams. The U5 team coached by Cliff Roberts, U7 by Kevin Leader/Eddie Cliff Jr, U10 Frances Roberts, and U13 Glenn Assu. The U5 and U7 had a daunting schedule which saw them playing all four games on Saturday. Both qualified for the finals but lost in close matches. The U10 easily qualified for the final and had some great passing plays to win their division 4-1. Ethan Vaton and Rylan Price were named Allstars. The Most Promising Player was Ty Ludwikowski and Carter Hall was the Most Sportsmanlike. The U13s found themselves in two very difficult games, both semi final – a comeback 3-0 to win 4-3,
and the final against a very tall, very old Thunderbirds out of Victoria. The U13s, with average age of 11, showed true talent and true grit can overcome gigantic opponents. This talented team was led by Josh Rolland, Brady Assu, Charlie Borrie, Sam Borrie, but surrounded by a cast of skillful players including Keanu Billy, Christine Price, Kyra Lazzar , Emoni Bush, Nico, Scott Assu, Owen Brandstaetter, James Timothy, Jared Timothy, outstanding play the goalies Brooklyn Pallen and Jon Smith. The final went into double overtime with We-WeiKai FC making a nice passing play for the halfback Owen Brandstaetter to James Timothy who calmly slotted it past the Victoria Tbirds goalie. Final score 2-1. Josh Rolland picked up an Allstar along with Charlie Borrie (a rarity since she is a defender) and Sam Borrie for Most Promising Player.
The Campbell River Killer Whales were in the pool again this weekend, with 10 of our fastest Killer Whales competing at the Mel Zajac International in Vancouver, with another group of swimmers attending the Island Medley Challenge in Victoria. Both groups swam very fast at both three day meets, with some amazing results coming from all the swimmers that competed. Island Medley Challenge was led by some of the younger Killer Whales on the team, with stand out performances coming from Maya Ruehlen, Brooke Wenger, Summer Wenger, Kaya Lathangue and Regan Moreau. Ruehlen had a very successful weekend of racing, making eight out of nine finals, and swimming best times every time she got in the pool. Swimming some of the hardest events in the sport including, the 200 Butterfly, 800 Freestyle, and 400 IM, Ruehlen handled her schedule like a pro, and was a great leader over the weekend, setting a great example to our younger swimmers, on how to put together great performances. Meanwhile, the Wenger sisters were at it again, with Brooke Wenger winning seven of her nine events, and showing everyone that she will be a force to watch in upcoming seasons. Summer Wenger had a fantastic weekend at the pool, making five finals over the weekend, which is very impressive considering she is a nine-year-old competing in an 11-and-under category. She also swam her first 200 butterfly, showing a lot of toughness for such a young swimmer. Kaya Lathangue, who is coming off a great performance at the 10 and Under Championships which the team attended on the May 9 and 10 weekend, had another spectacular weekend at the pool. Lathangue is becoming a quick little freestyler, placing in the top eight in the 100, 200, 400 and 800 Freestyle. Regan Moreau gave the team one
of the most exciting races of the weekend in the 400 Freestyle, dropping 19 seconds during prelims and finals. Moreau had a great race in the morning dropping eight seconds, earning himself a spot in the final. With his team behind him Moreau dropped another 11 seconds in finals, earning his first AA standard, and is on the road to attending the AA Provincial Championships at the end of the season. Great swims also came from Nadia Klaue, who achieved her two AA times, and is now qualified for the Provincial Championships. Jesse Shade, Ava Simard and Sofia Simard, also had stand out meets, with some great performances over the course of the weekend. At the Mel Zajac International meet at UBC, CRKW swam to some impressive early season results, highlighted by the two Padington sisters qualifying for a number of second swims in a very competitive and fast field. Taylor Padington qualified for three finals in the 200 freestyle, 200 backstroke and 100 backstroke. In the 100 backstroke, she took three seconds off of her seed time to move up 15 spots to a final position. Mackenzie Padington, fresh off an incredible short course season, continued to show how bright her future is in the sport with four finals and winning a medal in the 200 Freestyle. Mackenzie was focusing on some different races than usual and went a best time in the 200 Freestyle to beat out a number of National team members for a bronze medal. Jamiliya Wellard had a breakout swim in the 50 Butterfly on the first day moving up 18 spots and making the final. Wellard was the youngest swimmer in the finals that night at only the age of 13 racing against 25 year olds. It was a great meet that allowed for CRKW race against some of the best in Canada, USA, Peru, and Mexico.

A short drive west from Campbell River will get you to some beautiful scenery through Strathcona Park which over the past week has been a popular fishing spot for catch-and-release trout. Lots of fly action was reported by local anglers and it should be good for at least another six weeks. On the Elk River we are not talking big fish but using light fly tackle, you can hook fish all day and go back and get more action when the bite is on. On the fly, size 14 to 16 and even 12 size hooks will produce hits. Pheasant tail nymphs along with bead head nymphs are being gobbled up by the Elk River trout. On a dry fly, a Tom Thumb pattern gets a lot of attention. The Elk River will have trout moving around with the new rain and wading into a pool near a creek can be a fun way to catch and release trout. Many anglers who don’t
Small catch and release trout on the Elk River offers up big fun.
know the river will be fishing in water that contains no fish and the Elk can be very frustrating. I have a feeling the coming weekend will see heavy fishing pressure around the creek areas that enter the Elk. Cervus creek will be fished hard. In Sayward, Kelsey Bay Wharf is now open and the fishing has been quiet with little or no reports coming in. Search and Rescue from Port McNeill was called in to rescue a boat that lost its motor. Some anglers from Campbell River made a trip
to Bute Inlet and the fishing in that area was slow for salmon. But if anglers can’t get out, they can set out the prawn and crab traps and when the weather clears, they bring up the catch and then try for salmon. At Discovery Pier, only three big salmon have been caught since April 16 but the fishing season has just started with Jack Heemskerk the leader with a 27-pound spring. A number of large fish have been caught and many come in between 14 and 19 pounds but fishing guides at Painters have been fishing
with good results. George Rorke had mentioned that his buddy was out and got a double header with two 30-pound Tyee caught. At Kitty Coleman, 21-pound fish have been caught and the area remains a good spot for salmon. This weekend there is a Family Fun Trout Derby at Buttle Lake and the Upper Campbell, and June 13 there is a private Fun Fishing Derby put on by Wayne Harrison and Heather DePencier of Paul Davis Systems. Roberts Lake Family Derby has been set for Sept. 19. Echo should be busy this weekend with the cooler weather and with the rain, the bug hatch should be on and some of the 225 gram size trout stocked on May 20 should be chasing dark colour flies. Some large carry-over fish have been caught in deeper water on the logging road size of the lake.

Starry, starry night watches over speedway action

cruiser bike is more comfortable, looks way cooler and carries more beer, so it is always the first choice. When it comes to commuting, I do use my mountain bike quite a bit and include a bunch of trail riding on the way to and from work, but when it’s a ride straight to work, my commuter bike gets pulled off the hook. It has lights, bells, fenders and can pull trailers or kids, so it is just simple and practical and makes my mornings easy. Obviously, not everyone reading this needs four or five bikes, and again, if you just want to get out and pedal, one bike will do it all, but remember, there are bikes for every rider and every style, so if you enjoy more than one type of cycling, you just might appreciate more than one kind of bike…I know I do! I’m James Durand and I’m Goin’ Ridin’.

James Campbell (#1) leads Matt Verhagen in the Old Time Modified Stock cars at Saratoga Speedway last Saturday.
The A main saw Lawrenuk once again dominate the field, jumping out to an early lead and holding on to take his third main event win of the year. Ten cars entered into a very exciting 30-lap Modified main event. Gregg Sagmoen would hold the lead for the first 20 laps, but Travis Stevenson would make his way around Sagmoen

Back at league action on Saturday (above and below) at Rod Brind’Amour Arena, the Campbell River pee wee Ravens took on an undermanned Vic/Esquimalt team defeating them 6-0.
The Campbell River Peewee Ravens travelled to Victoria May 23 to determine who would be crowned Champions in the Captain Cook Lacrosse tournament. After controlling the pace and the score board in the two opening matches with decisive wins over Naniamo and Port Alberni. The Team then came up against a determined host in Juan de Fuca and the Ravens fell behind by three goals in the opening period. A f t e r re g ro upi n g between the first and
second periods the Ravens went on to score five unanswered goals to win the game 5-3. The following morning the Ravens faced Jaun de Fuca again in the first semi-final matchup of the day to see who would earn a spot in the Gold medal match. After making some defensively minded adjustments to the Ravens bench the team was able to stifle JDF offences and only give up one goal in a close 3-1 victory. The Ravens faced Cowichan Valley in the
finals, a team that the Ravens had previously tied 5-5 only two weeks before the tournament. The game turned out to be just as hard fought as the previous tilt. With the difference this time being in the Ravens whole team dedicating them self ’s to playing a much more disciplined style of lacrosse. The most impressive part of the Gold medal game was Campbell River’s new found depth in scoring as all four goals were scored by four different players in the 4-1 win.

CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
S
kipper Chris Fletcher and crewman Dave Dakin affixed the name decal to the stern of the Northern Lights Wednesday in Discovery Harbour. Now Fletcher hopes he can show it to the competition in the VanIsle 360 yacht race around Vancouver Island. The Northern Lights will become the first Campbell River entry in the bi-annual circumnavigation of the Island when it departs the starting line in Nanaimo Saturday at 10:30 a.m. The 44-foot sailboat will join a record field of 52 entries in the 10th running of the race. “I think the start will be exciting,” said Fletcher, who is making his VanIsle 360 debut with a crew of eight sailors from Campbell River and the Comox Valley. “We’re anticipating a downwind start, so that should be great.” “Fifty-two spinnakers would look pretty impressive,” Dakin added. The boats will travel north from Nanaimo in a series of legs that will take them around the northern tip of the island at Cape Scott before running south along the west coast. After hooking around Victoria, they will finish back in Nanaimo June 20. The boats will sail into Campbell River Monday afternoon and spend the night in Discovery Harbour. The Northern Lights — officially named Northern Lights VI, but racing under the abbreviated name — will stay in its “home” slip near the end of I finger that evening and can be viewed by the public along with the rest of the race entries.
Crew members Dave Dakin, left, and Wade Major join skipper Chris Fletcher at the stern of the Northern Lights, which will become the first Campbell River entry in the VanIsle 360 when the race begins Saturday in Nanaimo.
The Northern Lights will carry a crew of seven for the inside run and eight for the west coast, and members have logged more than 100 hours in practice time over the past couple of months preparing for the two-week trek. “We’ve done a lot of practice sessions in a lot of different
wind conditions, so that’s been helpful,” said Fletcher. “We’ve done sail changes, had a man overboard session and done an overnight practice. “The crew has been getting a lot of work in.” Even the shore crew, a three-member squad from the Campbell River Yacht Club, has

done a prep session preparing food for the sailors. Each boat has a shore crew that “chases” the race, shadowing the boats in a caravan of vehicles while providing meals, supplies and other services as the race progresses. Fans can follow the race in real time online through the race tracker at www.vanisle360. com. Prime viewing in Campbell River is available anywhere along the beach, but especially at the pier, where the boats slide past the finish line to end the second of the VanIsle 360’s 10 legs. There is no departure viewing option in the city. The boats will motor early Tuesday morning to Deep Bay for the official sailing start of the third leg. Fletcher and some of his local crew spent Wednesday afternoon preparing Northern Lights for its run to Nanaimo and the race start, including fueling and adding decals to the boat. In addition to title sponsor Ocean Pacific Marine, the team has secured additional local sponsorship assistance from Interlocks Paints, Coast Fiber-tek, DKS Industries and Marine Links Tours. “We’ve got more decals to put on the boat and on our van,” Fletcher said. “Lots more decals.”

Vivacious Viognier – the next white wine sensation V
www.CampbellRiverMirror.com www.CampbellRiverMirror.com
winemakers discovered that the trick to making really expressive wines from this fickle white grape was leaving the grapes on the vine until they started to shrivel just a little – known in the legendary vineyards of Condrieu as “passerillage sur souche.” So, yes, those subtle raisinovertones are absolutely legitimate! Even the everyday ‘Cellared in Canada’ category – wines that are sourced in bulk from other countries and finished and bottled here – there are credible examples. Copper Moon Viognier (46169G) $8.49 manages to tease everyday wine lovers with a sprinkling of peach and honeysuckle aromas and flavours. Almost 10 years ago - with its 2006 vintage - Chile’s Cono Sur Viognier (566836G) $9.59 was the first South American Viognier available in British Columbia – and it hit the shelves at a very attractive price. Orange peel and the honeyed scent of apple blossoms lead into remarkably

iognier somehow manages to continue to be one of the least known and least commonly available classic white wines. Plus ça change, plus c’est la même chose. Rescued from obscurity and dwindling interest in its own home in the Rhone Valley, just about 25 years ago, Viognier was taken on by curious winemakers and grape growers worldwide – most notably Australia’s Yalumba winery who planted 1.2 hectares of Viognier in the Barossa in 1980. Today, Yalumba Y Series Viognier (624502G) $15.69 is as close to a ‘New World’ benchmark as we’ve come to know. Lots of apricot and honeysuckle aromatics lift off the glass with tropical fruit flavours over candied lime and mandarin orange. And, of course, there’s that full-bodied, almost “oily” texture that Viognier so often delivers. As they developed their Viognier from vine to wine, Yalumba’s
slide into peaches and tropical fruit flavours on the tongue. Back in the legendary Burrowing Owl’s British Columbia Calliope Viognier (176024R) $16 offers up aromas of orange blossom, ripe apricot, peach and cantaloupe. It is richly honeyed and surprisingly full bodied with an unctuous mouthfeel and some serious ‘weight’ for a white wine. A medley of concentrated fruit lavours - apricot, cantaloupe, honey and mandarin orange –
muddle over the tongue, finishing off with a wisp of anise in the finish. Still in B.C. but off of the Naramata Bench, Marichel Vineyards Viognier (999999R) $18.95 has the cult appeal of very, very limited production. Combine that with classically rich honeysuckle, almond and mandarin orange rind and a subtle sprinkling of sweet oriental spices and white wine lovers are lining up to pick up this specialty white wherever they can find it.
Viognier has captured the attention of many Okanagan Valley winemakers. Black Hills Viognier (999999R) $25.65 is an unctuous, almost oily and burnished gold white wine from the same folks who give us the magical ‘Nota Bene’ red blend. Canned peach and dried apricot aromas and flavours slide into mango and papaya before finishing with a hint of honeysuckle.

Campbellton Neighbourhood launches community garden The Campbellton Neighbourhood Association on Saturday June 13 will hold a dual-purpose community information meeting and building party at the Community Garden site at 1741 15th Ave. (between Petersen and Redwood Streets). The event begins Saturday morning with a construction party to start assembling the up to 18 planting boxes of approximately 20 feet by 4 feet and then filling them with soil, as well as erecting a secure fence around them and connecting a water line. At noon there will be a barbecue and at 1 p.m. a community meeting will be held to provide local residents and other interested people with opportunities to ask questions about the CNA’s plans, such as how to rent one of the garden plots, how access to the garden site will be controlled and what other projects the CNA has underway and planned, such as improving public access to the riverfront, erecting 40 artistic banners, beautifying the downtown area and adding an entrance feature near 14th and Tamarac as a tourist attraction. “The CNA canvassed the community before obtaining city approval for the garden project but we still welcome questions and input about the project from local people,” said CNA chair Brian Shaw, noting there will be a tent available at the site in case it is raining or too sunny. Some of the garden plots have already been reserved but others are still available. The fee of $45 per plot per season covers CNA costs, which include purchasing the insurance required by the city for garden participants. The CNA would also appreciate donations of related goods and services, especially a lockable shed, gardening tools, fencing material, a lockable gate and any other gardening supplies. The Campbellton Neighbourhood Association is a registered not-for-profit society managed by a board of volunteers. Unlike Business Improvement Areas, it is open to both business operators and local residents. For further information contact Brian Shaw at 250-287-8807 or brianthepiper@gmail.com.

www.CampbellRiverMirror.com www.CampbellRiverMirror.com
The central Island has been spoiled by amazing weather this past month. To celebrate the start of the summer season, Mount Washington will be running their popular scenic chairlift rides on weekends in June. The first chair ascends the mountain this Saturday at 11am. “ We’r e o p e r at i n g our Mile High Scenic Chairlift over the next three weekends,” says Don Sharpe, Director of Business Operations and Marketing. “To kick off the summer season, the fesort is pleased to play host to the inaugural Dave Battison Pediatric Sports Medicine Symposium. The con-
ference is intended for anyone who is working with youth and children in sports. Additionally, our wedding season is already well underway, so it makes sense to open early to give everyone an opportunity to see the amazing views from the top of Mount Washington.” Starting this Saturday, the resort will have dining and shopping seven days a week. Daily summer operations begin June 28. In addition to the Mile High Scenic Chairlift Rides, there will be the everpopular Bungee Trampoline, mini golf, kids’ games, play area and a newly designed disc golf
course. Mount Washington’s Mile High Scenic Chairlift Rides are one of Vancouver Island’s most popular summer attractions. Views include the green Comox Valley, blue waters of Georgia Strait and stunning vistas into Strathcona Provincial Park. Snow play areas and the potential to get glimpses of the elusive Vancouver Island Marmot are added highlights to the ride up the mountain. For more information on the early weekend opening, festivals, events and the full summer schedule, visit mountwashington.ca.

Monarchists seek city ceremony
Council puts request on hold to learn more on group KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
A Canadian group loyal to the monarchy wants the City of Campbell River to join in a celebration across the nation marking the reign of the Queen. Buckingham Palace has calculated that on September 9 Queen Elizabeth II will have served longer than any other monarch in modern history. “The Queen’s reign will
surpass that of Canada’s other great Mother of Confederation, Queen Victoria,” wrote Robert Finch, dominion chairman of the Monarchist League of Canada, to city council. “Canadians agree that our sovereign has shown the ideals to which we might all aspire and which reflect our country’s traditions. In that spirit of service, I am writing…to ask that your municipal government consider organizing a brief, simple, heartfelt noon-time ceremony, preferably outdoors, at your town or city hall or some other central place in your community on September 9. “This would allow citizens to share a tribute to

the Queen on this special day, and so join a chain of municipalities large and small across Canada in a public demonstration of thanks, loyalty and deep affection.” But Coun. Charlie Cornfield was hesitant to go along with the league’s request without knowing more about the organization. “I would like to get clarification on this to see whether or not this is a federally recognized program to recognize the reign of the Queen being the longest in our history of the monarchy,” Cornfield said. “I’m unclear as to what they are. Are
they an offbeat group or are they tied into Heritage Canada which is a federal government program?” Agreeing with Cornfield, council voted to have city staff come back with a report on the background of the Monarchist League. According to the group’s website, the league was formed in 1970 to promote better understanding of the history and benefits of a Canadian constitutional monarchy. The group says the league “maintains a close relationship with Rideau Hall via the governor general’s private secretary and the chancellory of honours, and enjoys similar close contact with many of the ten lieutenant governors’ offices as well as with the federal department of Canadian Heritage.” The league also lobbies all levels of government

for the visibility and full use of royal symbols in everyday life. It cites one of its victories as a media and email campaign in 2008 that convinced BC Ferries to reverse a short-lived policy of removing pictures of the Queen from its vessels. Now it is encouraging Canadian communities to host events honouring the longest-running reign of a monarch. The league is suggesting a 15-20 minute celebration involving the singing of the national anthem, a proclamation, a message from the municipality to be sent to the Queen, and a tribute by a guest speaker. Two Island communities – Parksville and Oak Bay – have committed to celebrations on September 9, as has Armstrong, B.C., and seven communities in Ontario, four in Atlantic Canada, and one in Manitoba.

Lina Lilly Zeigler June 26, 1925 – May 25, 2015
With great sadness we announce the passing of a ‘One of a Kind’, wife, mother, grandmother, great and greatgreat grandmother, and a dear friend to many, after a short but courageous battle with pancreatic cancer. Lilly was born in Wiesloch, Germany and came to Canada in 1952, following her husband, Karl, with 2 young daughters in tow. They lived in various places across Canada before settling in Campbell River in 1974. Along the way, they were joined by two more daughters and a wealth of friends. To know Lilly and Karl was to know that there was always an open door and a welcoming smile and food, always so much food. Lilly was known for her kindness and helpfulness, and her zeal for life – both in this world and the one to come. Lilly is pre-deceased by her husband of 54 years; her brother Walter Heck; her sister Maria Heck; son-in-law Dan Schintz; and grand daughter Sarah Ertolahti. She leaves behind her 4 daughters, Brigitte (Eugene) Cudmore; Coni Reisdorf; Maureen (James) Froome; and Rosemary (Douglas) Kegler along with family and friends in Canada, the USA and in Germany including Kurt Mergel whose friendship added much brightness during the last few years of her life. Lilly was blessed with 10 grandchildren, 22 great grandchildren (the 23rd due shortly), and 1 great-great grandson, as well as the many more she ‘adopted’ into her heart and home. She will truly be missed.

in 2012 by Janet Merlo, a 19-year officer with the Nanaimo RCMP who was among the first officers to go public with allegations. Lawyer David Klein said the common thread among the complainants is harassment, bullying and discrimination over an extended period of time. More women would be able to join the case if a judge agrees there was a systemic problem and certifies the class action.
New election for doctors A new election has been ordered for the presidency of Doctors of B.C. after a recount determined the first vote ended in a tie. Dr. Brian Day, a leading proponent of more private health care, had been declared the winner last week by a single vote. Officials at Doctors of B.C. (formerly the B.C. Medical Association) said the initial tally failed to count one vote for Day’s challenger Dr. Alan Ruddiman. The run-off vote
between the two takes place from June 5 to 18. B.C. Health Minister Terry Lake said last week he was unsure whether he could meet with Day as president of the organization because the government is in a court battle with Day’s Cambie Surgical Centre over whether the federal ban on doctors privately billing patients violates the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
Site aids youth ‘aging out’ The province has unveiled a new website designed to help teens in foster care prepare to prepare for life without government support when they turn 19 and “age out” of care. The site agedout.com was designed by former foster teens to connect with vulnerable youth and showcases services and supports to help make the transition. It includes videos of former youth in care discussing real world challenges and gaming “quests” where youth earn rewards by completing challenges like renting an apartment, getting a bank account, preparing for a job interview or dealing with an abusive relationship. “‘How do I get a job?’ ‘Where am I going to live?’ These are the types of questions we all faced when we became adults,” Children and Family Development Minister Stephanie Cadieux said. “But for those in the care in the ministry, the transition can be much more challenging.” About 700 young people age out of government care each year.

mented in partnership with the Shoreline Arts Society which oversees the annual Frank James Park carving competition. The city’s public art committee would be responsible for periodically reviewing carvings on city land to determine whether specific pieces are suitable for disposal or removal. The city would work with the Shoreline Arts Society, which has an expert maintenance team, to confirm whether a carving should be repaired, moved or destroyed. Reasons for allowing a carving to be removed or
repaired would include: n The good condition or security of the carving cannot be reasonably guaranteed. n The carving requires excessive maintenance or repair. n The carving endangers public safety. n There have been significant changes in the use, character or design of the location of the carving which affect the integrity of the carving. n Adverse public reaction has continued over a long period of time. n The quality of the carving is debatable. n Removal is requested by the Shoreline Arts Society.

City council is planning to implement a new policy that will dictate how the city deals with left over carvings from the annual Transformations on the Shore competition. The majority of the carvings not purchased or donated to local businesses, are located on city property. Some of the sculptures, though, are aging and are weathered and deteriorating and council isn’t sure what to do with them. “Several of the carvings have fallen into a state of disrepair due to a lack of maintenance,” wrote Elle Brovold, the city’s property manager, in a report to the city’s Community Services, Recreation and Culture Commission which provides guidance to council on community issues. “In an effort to address this issue, city staff have determined that an internal policy that outlines the responsibilities of the (Shoreline Arts) Society and the city and the processes for dealing with the disposal or retention of the carvings (is necessary).” The policy would apply to all Transformations on the Shore carvings that live on city-owned property and would be imple-

n The carving site is no longer accessible to the public or the spot is to be re-developed. The issue of what to do with council’s carving inventory has been ongoing for many years. In the summer of 2012, the council of the day decided to establish an annual $5,000 carving maintenance budget to maintain the city’s carvings on a regular basis. The Community Services, Recreation and Culture Commission was tasked by that council with keeping an ongoing inventory and to help monitor the allocation of the carvings.

NIC electrical instructor earns award An organization recognizing North America’s most inspiring staff and instructors honoured three NIC educators this week. Mickey Bliss, Sandra Faust, and Albert Balbon received their National Institute for Staff and Organizational Development (NISOD) Excellence Awards at the annual conference and awards ceremony May 23-26 in Austin, Texas. The awards recognize faculty, staff, and administrators at Canadian and US technical and community colleges who have demonstrated an outstanding commitment and contribution to their students, colleagues, and communities. “I’m proud to be an important influence in the learning and development of my many students” said Bliss, who teaches NIC’s Electrical Foundation certificate and Electrical apprenticeship programs in Campbell River. Bliss is known for his desire to provide B.C.’s best electrical training at NIC and his commitment to more than 1,500 electrical students since 1992. He was nominated by students, colleagues and administrators, each crediting him for his innovation, his passion for teaching and ability to make learning entry level electrical skills understandable and enjoyable to students wherever they study. “Mickey’s skills extend beyond the traditional

become journeymen, contractors, foremen, supervisors, and instructors in the electrical trades. “Mickey Bliss is quite comfortably one of the best teachers I have ever had,” said one former student, now working in Russia’s oil patch. “He quite obviously enjoys teaching and works hard to ensure students do too.” Bliss received his award with NIC English

Museum exhibit explores the history of the waterway in Campbell River’s front yard
Many of us who live in Campbell River and on Quadra Island look at the Discovery Passage every day. But how well do we really know it? The Museum at Campbell River has created a new temporary exhibit to tell the story of this marvellous natural waterway, and to give us a glimpse of what lies beneath the waves. A beautiful but dangerous passage, this marine highway has swiftly flowing tides that surge through narrow spaces to create currents that have been known to sink many ships. The rapids at Seymour Narrows, even after the destruction of Ripple Rock, can still cause trouble for those unfamiliar with navigating these waters. Despite the danger, people have been using the passage for thousands of years as a strategic home base, and the coast here was once populated by hundreds of First Nation’s villagers, living off the abundance of the sea. Explorers arrived from Europe in 1792, then by 1860, detailed surveys were being made of the coast. The outlying islands were first populated by settlers in the late 1800s, and Campbell River, a settlement without a nat-

With that was a subsequent increased need for services, housing and better harbour facilities. In that same era, Union Steamships stopped servicing the Discovery Islands, and Campbell River became the hub for marine traffic. Always critical to this coastal community has been the abundant sea

Featuring a detailed account of the explosion of Ripple Rock, stories of shipwrecks, stunning underwater photos by Eiko Jones and an interactive map display, this exhibit is sure to fascinate and inform people of all ages.

Echo Lake park gets boost J.R. RARDON CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
Families planning on a little freshwater fishing during this month’s Family Fishing Day will find a new, improved facility at their disposal thanks to the efforts of Campbell River’s Fish and Game volunteers. The organization delivered and installed a new concrete dock at Echo Lake Wednesday, adding to previous improvements made at the area’s day-use picnic and dock area. “We put in pads for three picnic tables, three fire rings, and built a new outhouse,” volunteer Wade Major said. “We’re going to be ready to host Family Fishing weekend.” The group also spread 200 yards of gravel in the road and pathways into the park, and carved a curved, gently sloping ramp to the dock to improve accessibility to the mobility challenged. The provincially sponsored Family Fishing Weekend, scheduled for June 20-21, provides

T h e proj e c t w a s funded through the Fish and Game society’s annual fundraisers, with help from the Freshwater Fisheries Society of B.C. The FFSBC recently stocked the lake with 650 catchable-sized rainbow trout, and more fish will be introduced into the lake this year. To access the new dayuse site, follow Hwy. 28 just past Echo Lake, turn left on Elk Main (formerly Camp 8 Road) and watch for the day-use site signs.
crete dock was lifted by crane into the water to replace the small, existing wooden dock at the end of a metal ramp. The ramp extends from shore at a recently improved picnic site with fire pits, table pads and new outhouse. Major said the picnic tables are expected to arrive within three weeks, which may have them in place for the Family Fishing event.

A little imagination goes a long way – to Tennessee, actually J.R. RARDON CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
A little imagination took a group of Carihi students all the way to Tennessee last month, as finalists in the global Destination Imagination science challenge. The quintet of students, assembled by teacher Brittany Renooy and spanning Grades 9 through 12, qualified
with placement in both regional and provincial contests in the international challenge. “It celebrates creativity, imagination, collaboration and creative thinking,” said Renooy. “It’s really a 21st-century learning model, and what the job force is looking for.” In trying to round up students interested in the science-based chal-
lenge, Renooy found willing participants in students Austin Chiasson, Arlen Cox, Dawson Jordan, Gurleen Mann and Kristine Osachuk. The team was tasked with creating an “Incredible Sound Machine” that created two distinct sounds. The students further had to create visualizations for each sound, and to narrate two different stories
about the sounds. The challenge did not demand a hightech masterpiece with application in industry. Rather, Renooy said, with a budget limited to $100 CN the students assembled a “Rube Goldberg” contraption with vacuum hoses, a hammer, marbles, tin can, bike wheel, ceramic bell and various weights. The visualization ele-

ment added ribbon and tiny LED lights. “It took them a while to get started,” Renooy admitted. “There was definitely a learning curve. With each of them coming from different grades, they had to get to know each other, figure out how they were going to tackle it and who had the best ideas.” In the end, the quintet divided responsibilities, with different leaders taking on the machine, the visualizations and the stories. Each of the competitions also included an “instant challenge” in which the students enter a room with no idea what to expect and are given five to six minutes to come up with a solution to a problem. At the provincials, that involved using props to tell a story, with props representing building supplies that in turn were used to build a boat. The boat’s seaworthiness was tested by loading marbles into it until is sank. The team placed in the top three in the B.C. finals to earn a

berth in the global challenge at the University of Tennessee in Knoxville. Despite sponsorship help from several local businesses, only Jordan, Mann and Osachuk were able to attend because of travel expenses and scheduling conflicts. Also, baggage restrictions for the international trip forced the Carihi team to reconfigure a scaleddown version of their machine. “To get it there, they had to fit it into a suitcase,” Renooy said. “And they had to change a story because one of the characters in the
original was one of the students who couldn’t go on the trip.” The reduced team spent six days in Tennessee, sharing their project and taking in the other entries. They also toured a traveling exhibit set up by the National Aeronautic and Space Administration (NASA) and U.S. astronaut Buzz Aldren of Apollo moon-landing fame, workshops by both NASA and Walt Disney animators and even an appearance by Paula Abdul. “There was so much to see and do at the university,” said Renooy.
