CR Youth: Downtown ‘bland, outdated, lacking in colour’ KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
KRISTEN DOUGLAS/CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
Cedar Elementary student Trevor Rickard joins his friends in painting a part of the new mural that adorns the wall of the Cedar school gym.
Students paint their community on the wall KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
C
edar Elementary is a mecca of activity these days. The sounds of excited chatter bounce off the
school walls as the kids eagerly make their way outside to see how their creation is coming along. The wall of their school gym is being painted with a large mural – a beautiful piece of art that captures the Cedar community and
what the school means to each and every student. There are kids playing soccer – a favourite pastime for many of the school’s students – as well as a real head scratcher for the staff. “Watermelons kept coming

Street entertainment, food vendors, public art, more street trees. Those are just some of the things Campbell River youth would like to see city council take into consideration as it develops its downtown revitalization plan. Those interventions were compiled by the city’s Youth Action Committee which surveyed 552 students from local middle and high schools in developing its vision. Nigel Neufeld, chair of the youth committee, said the purpose of the survey was to gather ideas and recommendations to bring to council and provide a youth perspective on what young people would like to see in the community, specifically downtown. “We would like to recommend that council takes one or more of our recommendations and consider them in the downtown revitalization discussions that are taking place,” Neufeld said during a presentaContinued on Pg. 5

City urges Hydro to reconsider graffiti cutbacks KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
The city is urging BC Hydro to reconsider a decision to claw back money for graffiti removal. Since October, 2014 BC Hydro has provided the City of Campbell River with a $3,000 annual payment to remove graffiti from Hydro distribution equipment in the community. City Clerk Peter Wipper said the city was recently informed that Hydro will be cutting down that payment to $1,500. “Last month staff contacted BC Hydro because the city had not yet received its graffiti removal funding for 2016 and was told that the city’s payment would most likely be reduced,” Wipper said. “Staff were surprised that BC Hydro had to be reminded of its agreement and even more surprised when BC Hydro stated that it would be reducing its payment by half.” Wipper said that so far this year there have already been 92 cases of graffiti on either city or Hydro-owned property and of that total, 49 per cent involved BC Hydro poles and boxes. He added that the current cost to wrap one
clean up that kind of mess,” Kerr said. “Hopefully staff will be able to convince them that they’re getting a great deal.” According to Wipper, the city spent $65,000 on graffiti removal last year. Wipper added that “considering the number of Hydro poles and Hydro boxes within the city, $3,000 per year does not appear to be an unreasonable amount for BC Hydro to pay to relinquish its responsibility to remove graffiti from its distribution equipment located within the city.” Hydro had originally signed off on the annual payment in lieu of meeting the city’s requirement to remove graffiti no longer than five days after it appears. Olynyk said while Hydro will remove graffiti from its equipment that pops up near sensitive areas such as parks, community centres and schools, it’s impossible to keep up with all the graffiti that appears on Hydro property. “We’ve got thousands of poles we have to deal with,” he said. “It would be very costly for us to respond quickly and of course that would be passed on to our ratepayers.” Olynyk said “graffiti
Hydro box with antigraffiti coating ranges from $1,000 to $3,000. “This leaves the question of whether BC Hydro’s $1,500 offer is reasonable considering that there are approximately 3,000 hydro poles and 713 Hydro boxes located in Campbell River,” Wipper said. Ted Olynyk, spokesperson for BC Hydro, said Hydro is reviewing everything the utility does in order to find savings for its customers, and graffiti removal funding is part of that. “We have been trying to cut back, sharpen our pencils,” Olynyk said. “At the end of the day, everything we do impacts rates so we’re trying to lessen the impact on ratepayers.” City council, however, wasn’t pleased to learn about the reduction in funding and at its Monday night meeting, directed city staff to approach Hydro and request that it reconsider reducing the $3,000. Coun. Ron Kerr recognized that the city has a “good relationship with Hydro” and said he hoped city staff could get Hydro to change its mind. “Recently Willow Point was hit with a rash of vandalism and tagging and it takes a whole lot of money to
is not the responsibility of the victims” and said that’s why the utility has the grant program in which it provides annual funding to communities across the province to remove graffiti. “We deal with it as best we can but graffiti is a community problem,” he said. Coun. Charlie Cornfield said he was “amazed” that Hydro was cutting back on its agreement and said the city could turn around and penalize Hydro for not adhering to the city’s five-day removal

requirement. “I don’t mind leaving it to staff but if worse comes to worst, we can always start writing tickets,” he said. Wipper said the city has received “legal advice which confirmed that BC Hydro is not exempt from the city’s graffiti removal regulations and that it could be ticketed for noncompliance.” Fines are $250. But Olynyk said the city has been in touch and that Hydro “would be happy to discuss the amount (its) given to the municipality.”

Youth on downtown: Liven it up with cafes, etc.

tion to city council at its Monday night meeting. Downtown revitalization is a strategic priority for council which has undertaken a number of planning exercises recently. Members of the Youth Action Committee did a walking tour of the downtown core to try and assist council. Meara Spiers, a committee member, said youth reported that downtown is “bland,
outdated, lacking in colour, and has large quantities of pavement.” Having said that, youth also found it has “lots of potential.” She said youth determined that the city’s downtown could be livened up by things like pop up cafes and food trucks, public art such as painted crosswalks near the Tidemark and Spirit Square, and live streets where Shoppers Row in front of the Tidemark is
closed once a week in the summer for markets and music. Medium-scale interventions included lighting of street trees, a n d m ore g at h e ring places with tables, umbrellas and chairs. The youth also recommended large-scale improvements such as a redesign of alleyways to brighten them up, new entrances into downtown to create a sense of arrival and more green space in Tyee Plaza.
After listening to the Youth Action Committee’s recommendations, council congratulated them on a job well done. “I really want to applaud you for your presentation tonight and your work in bringing forward some great initiatives for the downtown,” Mayor Andy Adams said. “Ver y impressive you got over 550 survey participants. That’s excellent and speaks volumes to the
support you have for these initiatives.” Coun. Ron Kerr said he too was impressed with the ideas the youth came up with for creating a stimulating and vibrant downtown. “I don’t know what my expectation was but I didn’t see a recommendation that you made that I couldn’t wholeheartedly agree with,” Kerr said. “I know we’ve been talking about a lot of great ideas for a lot of
years and it’s great to see some young energy and perhaps a different slant on those initiatives.” Coun. Colleen Evans said the youths’ perspective lined up with the wants and visions for the community of other groups. “Bland was a word I think that really resonated with me but what I love about it was you saw a lot of potential and I believe that’s what you’re presenting here,”
Evans said. “It’s so nice to see that as a youth group there’s alignment with seniors and other groups in the community.” Council promised the youth that their perspectives and recommendations would be taken into account and incorporated in council’s downtown planning initiatives and directed city staff to present to the committee the outcome of its recommendations for downtown.

part of the school. Not wanting to leave out the school pet, the dog is painted into the mural wearing a lab coat, in recognition of the kids’ love of science. There is also a line of baby ducks following its mother – a tribute to yet another teacher who the students refer to as Mother Duck. The school’s motto Be Safe Be Kind is prominently painted alongside a brightly coloured rainbow. O’Shannessy says the mural encourages one of the school’s goals – to adopt a sense of ownership. “If we’re going to expect the kids to take pride in their building and school community we want to make it look nice so it’s easy to promote that,” O’Shannessy says. The mural is being
funded through the Health Promoting Schools program, a Public Health Agency of Canada program. Cedar is one of eight schools participating on the Island. Last year, the school put up scores of sea hawks along the fence which lines 2nd Avenue and this year O’Shannessy decided to go bigger. He was inspired by an ArtStarts program he witnessed last summer in Vancouver. “A lady there gave us a real moving message of how powerful art is,” he said. “They had done a beautiful felt mural in one of the schools there which showed eight stages of the year. Each class got a stage and put it together, and they talked about how it connected the kids to the school.” So O’Shannessy got in
touch with artist Alex Witcombe who recently painted the large twostorey mural on the side of the Aquatic Sciences building on Pier Street, as well as several of the community’s utility boxes, banners in Spirit Square and the digital mural wrapped around the outside of the Volunteer Centre on St. Ann’s. Witcombe helped the kids brainstorm ideas that were subsequently drawn by the kids onto Witcombe’s planning board – in this case, Witcombe’s car which is completely covered in chalkboard paint. “We just let them loose,” Witcombe says. “One of the questions we asked was ‘what do you appreciate about Cedar Elementary?’ and then I took all of their ideas and put them into one big mural.”
Painting began early Tuesday morning and was expected to wrap up today. Students and even their parents have all had a hand in painting the mural. As part of the school’s family drop-in program, which has close to 40 participants, entire families got the chance to put their strokes on the mural Tuesday afternoon. “We had all these people painting for hours,” O’Shannessy says. “We had 35 parents painting. We’re trying to build engagement and community so it’s cool to see these families being a part of it.” He added that one of the goals is to get every kid to touch some paint – that’s 170 students.

Promoting Schools program, said the mural is bringing the school community together. “The mural is a fabulous way to build leadership in students and connectedness,” says Jensen who credited O’Shannessy for the success of the project. “He
got the entire school around it.” O’Shannessy doesn’t see it that way. “She (Jensen) was the saviour for the project,” he says, after an ArtStarts in Schools grant application was unsuccessful earlier in the school year.
When Health Promoting Schools stepped in, the project was given new life and will be a lasting legacy for years to come. “The mural incorporates all the ideas from the students,” he says. “There’s nothing on there by accident.”

CRTC needs to step up or go away
At the beginning of March, Canada’s cable companies revealed their new CRTCimposed “skinny-basic” cable packages, demonstrating to the public, once again, that they don’t care what the people want. They just want their money. And the CRTC – if they don’t step up and do something about it – will demonstrate that they, too, don’t have any interest in what the people of Canada want. I knew, deep down, when it was announced last year that cable companies were being forced by their regulatory body to offer a basic cable package, that they would find some way to get their money. I figured they would make the skinny-basic package so unappealing that nobody would want it, and then charge way more money for people to get the channels they want. They’d find a way to make it equally – if not more – expensive for me to get my Golf Channel. But when the offerings were released at the beginning of the month, I checked anyway, just to see.

One would think it wouldn’t still need to be said. But RCMP and ICBC are again reminding drivers to leave the phone alone. They’re launching yet another campaign aimed at underlining just how dangerous it is to use a phone while driving. And it is dangerous. According to ICBC, 25 per cent of all road deaths in the province involve distracted driving. That’s one in four. And, according to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, the odds of crashing increase five times when using a phone, whether dialing, texting, reading or using social media. On Vancouver Island, it’s estimated that 10 peoWe say: Remind ple are killed in distracted people they are driving-related crashes every year. an accident Faced with those numwaiting to happen bers, it’s hard to imagine why drivers would still use their phone while they’re behind the wheel. But they do. According to a recent survey by Ipsos Reid, 34 per cent of cell phone users said they use their phone between one and five times out of every 10 trips. “It’s time we all commit to leaving our phones alone and avoid other forms of distraction when we’re behind the wheel,” said Lindsay Matthews, ICBC’s director responsible for road safety. This month, police will be on the roads watching for drivers who have not yet got the message. “We’re cracking down on those who cannot police themselves,” said Chief Constable Neil Dubord, Chair of the B.C. Association of Chiefs of Police Traffic Safety Committee. “Even when you’re at a red light or in slow moving traffic – you’re still in control of a vehicle – and the law still applies.” Is checking your phone worth a ticket, or worse, an accident? No. We can all be part of the solution. T alk to your family, talk to your friends and remind them that if they’re driving without their full attention on the road they’re an accident waiting to happen. -Black Press

spending on television. Which the telecoms have done. They have allowed us to choose “pay less and get basically nothing you want, but still something,” or, “pay more and get less than you had before, but nothing you don’t want.” They have done what their regulator told them to do. The problem is that the regulator hasn’t done what the public – who they work for – told them to do. We told them those of us who watch less should pay less. That’s the “spirit of the rules.” Hold them to it, CRTC. If you’re not going to work for us, we’ll find a way to fire you. You know, like many of us are doing to the cable companies themselves, by cancelling their terrible service. It’s getting to the point where I’ll be considering buying the full season of a show on DVD for $80 when it comes out rather than giving any more money to the company who gets it to my living room weekly. And I’ll go golfing myself, I guess, rather than watch people who are actually good at it.

School closures to be voted on next week Oyster River and/or Discovery Passage Elementary could close at year’s end
community still adamant that they should be removed from the process and given the same consideration as facilities like Quadra, Sayward and Cortes – schools whose capacity and operating expense issues will be considered under Phase 2 of the district’s 10-Year Facility Plan – the district insists they can’t change the plan once it’s been initiated.

With the community consultation period coming to a close, the trustees of School District 72 will decide next week on whether to go ahead with the closure of Discovery Passage and Oyster River Elementary schools at the end of the current school year. With the Oyster River
Public Notice of Open House 3x5 Connector North Courtenay The Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure invites the public ministry of transportatiom to attend an information session to preview plans to improve the connection between Highway 19 and North Courtenay. This will allow better access to key destinations in the region, including the new Comox Valley hospital. The new connection will replace the current one-lane bridge with a new two-lane bridge, increasing route capacity and enhancing east-west connectivity. The ministry’s project team will be on hand to provide information and answer questions. All comments received will be reviewed and evaluated for consideration prior to construction. This drop-in open house is scheduled for the following date:
“We’re involved in a process that has been delineated by legislation, and we have to follow that process,” Trustee John Kerr said in response to yet another request to remove the school from the consideration process at the final public consultation meeting held in the Oyster River Elementary Gym March 3. “We started the (closure consultation) process on Jan. 12,” Kerr continued. “That process is outlined in legislation and we now have to follow that process for 60 days. If we change what we’re doing before before we reach
next week. “Phase 2 is not some magical thing,” Kerr told the crowd at Oyster River. “It’s what happens next.” Most concerned members of the public and parents at both facilities under closure consideration seem to have decided that the Board of Education isn’t the bad guy in this scenario – merely one of the victims of the chronic underfunding of the public school system in the province – but they still say more could be done to remedy the situation before closure is necessary and are urging the board to

a decision on March 16 for this school – March 15 for Discovery Passage – we compromise that process. If the decision is made to close the school, it will be closed. If the decision is made to keep it open, then it will be dealt with in Phase 2,” he said. Phase 2, after all, begins on March 17, after the closure voting takes place, whether they vote to close the schools or not. Basically, the board could grant the community’s request to move the school into Phase 2 – along with Discovery Passage for that matter – simply by voting no

give them more time to find solutions by voting against closure next week. The district’s Contingency Fund, suggested some at the last round of consultation meetings, could be used to float the schools for another year while alternatives are considered and acted upon. At the last meeting of the board, there was discussion that if the district continues to hold a contingency fund in reserve, the Ministry of Education could just come take it, leaving them with nothing to show for it, so why not use that money to keep these schools open a bit longer so they can figure out solutions, some asked. After all, 60 days isn’t very long to come up with viable alternatives once you find out your school is under consideration for closure, the parents say, but with more time, they are confident they could find a solution that would work for the district, the ministry, and the community. The public meetings of the board to discuss what they’ve heard and vote on the closures take place at the School District Offices at 425 Pinecrest Road on Tuesday (Discovery Passage) and Wednesday (Oyster River) next week (March 15 and 16). The meetings are scheduled to begin at 7:30. All other district business discussions have been postponed to leave these meetings exclusively for closure discussions and decisions.

CELEBRATING 55 YEARS OF SWIMMING EXCELLENCE campbellriversalmonkings.ca
Campbell River’s oldest youth athletic club, the Campbell River Salmon Kings, was the brainchild of Ms. Dot Andrews. Her dream of coaching swimmers in Campbell River began at Moose Falls in 1961, where she trained a group of summer swimmers. She later moved her athletes to Rotary Beach and then to McIvor Lake. Fifty years ago, the Salmon Kings migrated to the new outdoor pool at Centennial Park and have remained there ever since. The Campbell River Salmon Kings (CRSK) offer young swimmers in the Campbell River and surrounding area the opportunity to learn competitive swimming skills during the summer. The club’s enthusiastic and qualified coaches teach youngsters to swim with confidence and enjoy the excitement of competition in a fun and supportive atmosphere. Swimmers make new friends and develop valuable life skills such as teamwork, goal setting, and sportsmanship. Social events (BBQ’s, theme days, potluck dinners) are fun for the whole family! The summer swim season runs from May 1 to mid-August each year. Registration is open to all children 5 years or older as of May 1 who can swim one width of the pool unassisted (Red Cross level 3/4 equivalent). This summer’s members will again receive expert coaching from Provincial Champion and NCAA Division 1 swimmer Taylor Padington and assistant coaches Keagan Leighton and Kurtis Scriba. The CRSK swim meet on June 17 and 18 will attract over 200 swimmers from across Vancouver Island. For further information contact president@campbellriversalmonkings.ca
HOW TO REGISTER: Early registration nights are March 15 and 17 at 7 pm at Strathcona Pool lobby. Cheques or cash accepted. Please bring child’s birth certificate.
THE CRSK FEES ARE STILL THE LOWEST ON VANCOUVER ISLAND! Early registration fee is $250.00 per swimmer Regular season rate is $275.00 per swimmer

‘There’s no such thing as privacy online’
Retired staff sergeant and award-winning Internet safety advocate encourages digital literacy for kids and parents MIKE DAVIES CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
School District 72 (SD72) played host to a special guest this week as online investigator, retired Victoria Police Department staff sergeant and awardwinning Internet safety advocate/educator Darren Laur came to town. Laur specialized in online crime as a police officer, and he’s brought that expertise to his new role as consultant, public speaker, counsellor and teacher. He has given talks to over 250,000 students all across North America, and this week, he was sharing
his expertise with the students and parents of Campbell River. Two evening sessions took place at Timberline for parents, along with daytime presentations for students of L’École Phoenix, Timberline, Southgate and Carihi. The charismatic and engaging man’s message was both simple and complex: “There’s no such thing as privacy online.” In 2006 or so, when teenagers began taking to social media en masse, Laur says, the biggest concerns that parents, law enforcement and educators had was that our kids would
be opening themselves up to sexual predators and pedophiles. And although that’s one reality about online life and should never be downplayed or glossed over, Laur says, it’s not his primary concern these days. Tech-savvy kids have a much better understanding of the digital world than they used to, and they realize that some “people” aren’t who they say they are. No, the biggest threat that these kids face online isn’t sexual predation, Laur says, but the repercussions of their own actions. “Those of you sitting in this audience who
have decided to become really good digital citizens, you will have an advantage when it comes to post-secondary opportunities and job opportunities of the future, no doubt about it,” Laur told the theatre full of Timberline students Wednesday. “But those of you who decide not to become good digital citizens will see, from examples in this presentation, that what you’re doing online can come back and kick you in the ass for the rest of your life.” He went on to give many, many examples of teenagers losing jobs because they posted
something online that their bosses didn’t appreciate. He cited other examples of gifted athletes who lost college scholarships because of things they said on social media platforms. And he told them once they put something online, it never goes away. The first thing a prospective employer does these days when they receive a resumé, Laur told the students, is check out their “digital dossier.” They look at everything that is attached to that person on the Internet, including social media platforms, to see if that’s
MIKE DAVIES/CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
Darren Laur tells the theatre full of Timberline Secondary students that he's as attached to his phone as they are to theirs, but what they put online now can (and will) haunt them for the rest of their lives, so he encourages them to be good "digital citizens.”
someone they want their company’s name associated with. SD72, according to assistant superintendent Nevenka Fair, was

excited to be able to put on the presentations, as digital literacy, she says, is an ever-increasingly valuable resource for students.

Storm expect to carry opening tactics to game 2
ALISTAIR TAYLOR/CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
Storm leftwinger Colin Blake dekes around Nanaimo goaltender Alex Orth to score the sixth goal of the night for the Storm in their northern division playoff opening 6-1 victory.
Campbell River Storm coach Lee Stone expected to bring more of the same from Game 1 to the Nanaimo Buccaneers barn last night. Game 1 of the second round of the VIJHL playoffs saw the Campbell River Storm come out on top with a decisive score of 6-1 Tuesday at Rod Brind’Amour Arena. Colin Blake scored twice along with Michal Holub, Austin Steger, Keenan Scardina and Alex Rosolowsky. Nanaimo’s Billy Walters scored the Buc’s lone goal. Shots were 33-23 in favor of the Storm. The Three Stars were Colin Blake, Austin Steger and Darryl Senholt all from the Storm. Stone credited among other things, the Storm’s presence in front of Bucs goalie Alex Orth. “We knew we had to get traffic to the front of the net,” he told Storm reporter Mark Berry in a post game interview. “Four out of six goals, he didn’t see.” Stone intended to keep that up going into last night’s Game 2 at Nanaimo Ice Centre (see www.campbellrivermirror.com for results). “We talked about being greasy. It doesn’t have to look great. Everyone loves to win a greasy game, so let’s go and win a greasy road game.” It’s a quick turnaround for the series with Game 3 7:30 tonight at Rod Brind’Amour Arena and Game 4 on Sunday in Nanaimo. Game 5, if necessary, will be at the Brindy on Tuesday.
Teammates bowl perfect games three months apart LINDSAY CHUNG
CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
A
perfect game in bowling is pretty rare, but how about two teammates bowling a perfect game within three months of each other? It might sound improbable, but it’s exactly what happened at the Campbell River Bowling Centre during Monday Men’s League tenpin play. Most recently, Allan Bradshaw bowled a perfect 300 game Feb. 16. That is slightly less than three months after teammate Shane Konkle bowled a perfect game
on Nov. 23. “It’s rare,” said Bradshaw, whose last perfect game was about 12 years ago. “Some people would say it’s almost like a hole in one in golf.” Konkle’s last perfect game was about 10 years ago, although he hasn’t been bowling for that entire time. “I don’t know the exact odds on it, but a lot of it too is very dependent on the lanes,” he said. “Obviously you’ve still got to throw the ball and get a strike, but the lanes have been recently renovated and new lanes are in here, and that definitely makes a difference.”
LINDSAY CHUNG/CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
Campbell River Bowling Centre owner Ian Fong (centre) made a special presentation to Monday Men’s League bowlers Shane Konkle (left) and Allan Bradshaw on March 7 to recognize them for bowling perfect 300 games.
In 2014, Campbell River Bowling Centre owner Ian Fong invested hundreds of thousands
of dollars to refurbish the bowling lanes with synthetic laminate, as well as install new ball
returners, re-carpet and paint the centre and add a new pool hall. These improvements

brought Konkle to the Campbell River Bowling Centre. “I wasn’t bowling until they renovated it, and then I came back,” he said. “I wouldn’t be bowling here unless they renovated. I was almost considering driving to Nanaimo to bowl. It’s great that he invested the money into redoing the lanes.” Both Konkle and Bradshaw say that moment when you bowl a perfect game is unforgettable — for them but also for everyone else at the bowling alley. “Everybody stops bowling, the whole centre, and basically, you
become the focal point for that one shot,” said Konkle. “Once you get to the last two or three shots, especially the secondto-last one, everyone just sort of stops and watches,” agreed Bradshaw. “You become pretty conscious of the fact that you’re the only one there. And you just say a little prayer, ‘Jesus, you’re throwing this one,’ and it worked this time. For me, the last one was a little different, but this one, it was so exhilarating when you got the last one and they all went down.” Konkle says he proba-

Perfect game: ‘You say a little prayer...and it worked this time’ From Pg. 15
bly came close to a perfect game four or five times before he had his 300 game, bowling 10 strikes in a row but not being able to get the 11th and 12th. He and Bradshaw both say you do need a little bit of luck. “Some of it’s luck, but you still have to throw the ball in the right spot,” said Konkle. A lot goes into bowling the perfect game. “For me, it’s focus and concentration, trying to execute the same thing over and over again, repetition,” said Konkle. “Once you throw the ball, it’s out of your control, so you have to do the best job you can.” There is a bit of reading the lanes too because there is oil on the lanes, he says. “You’re always going for that strike on the first throw,” added Bradshaw.
Konkle has been bowling off and on probably about 25 years and he has bowled four perfect games so far. As well, he won a bronze medal at the Canadian Championships in the early 1990s while he was in Ontario. Bradshaw has been bowling for close to 30 years and this was his second perfect game. “I’ve had a 298 and a 299, which means that all the pins didn’t fall on the last ball,” he said. Bradshaw is a past president of the B.C. Youth Tenpin Association and is a Level 1.5 certified coach for youth. Bradshaw says he also enjoys bowling because it’s a good family game. “My wife bowls and so does Shane’s,” he said. “My son’s an avid bowler, although he lives in Dawson Creek now and can’t bowl up there.”

Both Bradshaw and Konkle are in their second year playing with the Monday Men’s League in Campbell River. “I enjoy the challenge but I also enjoy the friendship and fellowship,” said Bradshaw. “Bowling in men’s league makes it more competitive. “ Konkle enjoys the challenge and often compares bowling to golf. “It’s actually a lot more technical than people think it is,” he said. “The funny thing about this sport is that you can throw a perfect shot and you never get the same results. They’re round objects hitting round pins and it’s out of your control from there.” Bradshaw sees bowling as being a bit like curling. “There’s a similarity in the sense of the speed of how you throw makes a difference,” he said.

If you talk to 10 people about fishing, odds are you’ll get 10 different ways to fish. For some anglers, they will have a rod, take out a hook and get some worms and go fishing. Those who use spinning gear will get out and troll or cast out a lure, spoon or jig into a river or lake. Those who fly fish enjoy getting out and the casting technique will vary from angler to angler. I know fly anglers who enjoy getting out and presentation is more fun than catching a fish. For many people fly fishing can be intimidating and, at times, a challenge. Sometimes you have to approach fly fishing like a detective and find out the location of the fish and investigate what the fish has been eating. There are a couple of ways to find out what the fish are eating or biting on. One way is to do a visual check for flying insects and match the hatch. At times, when trout are surfacing you may have up to an hour to cast a fly to where the action is and then it’s done. One of the things I do when trout fishing is examine the stomach contents of a fish that was caught. When the ant hatch is on, the fish can go on a feeding frenzy eating anything that resembles an ant – if it’s black then it will be eaten. Trout eat snails and I am still amazed

GET READY FOR SPRING
First group of fly tying beginners at the Campbell River Library that something with that hard a shell will be eaten. In late fall, stickleback minnows are eaten and when you open up a trout’s stomach, the regurgitated contents can reveal what the fish is eating and what fly to use. The most unusual food a trout will go after is pine needles but if a trout is feeding on insects in a fast moving river, it’s hitting anything small and dark. The first stocking of trout this year was at Echo Lake this past Tuesday and I met with Duane Hardie from the Vancouver Island Trout Hatchery in Duncan. The air temperature was around 9 degrees Celsius and the water temperature was 7.5 degrees. The fish

‘Blazen Hazen’ digs deep like a true champ MAUREEN HUNTER SPECIAL TO THE MIRROR
O
n March 1, local Special Olympics athlete Hazen Meade and coaches Maureen Hunter, Cheryl Clay and George Maclagan attended the opening ceremonies of the Special Olympics National Winter Games in Corner Brook, Newfoundland and Labrador as part of Team B.C. Anyone who had the opportunity to follow this adventure through social media, saw that it was a Games that was full of local flavour. The community came out in full force to host these Games and what a great competition they put on. Despite what Mother Nature threw at us, the people of Corner Brook did a great job. Just to give you an idea of the weather challenges, when we got off the plane it was -7; our first day of competition on Wednesday was similar: -12 with a wind chill of -17, and, on Thursday, the outdoor competition was cancelled due to rain

and high winds. Friday turned out to be sunny and -15 with a wind chill of -20. But Mother Nature was not Hazen’s biggest challenge. As many people in our community are aware, Hazen is a very dedicated athlete who trains very hard and has earned every medal that he owns. Many of us see
Hazen doing his weekly runs at the Sportsplex or the pool. Recently, he has been running with the Carihi Tuesday and Thursday morning sports program. Of the three events that Hazen participated in, he was placed in the top division of each event. This meant that he was snowshoe-
ing against the fastest in Canada. When I reviewed his preliminary events with Hazen and the times of his competitors, he was very intimidated. His personal best time for the 1600 was 6:39 and he was going up against competitors with entered times of 5:51. Hazen is very well aware that taking 50 seconds off your time in a race is next to impossible. Hazen’s spirits where down and he was feeling pretty defeated. After his 1600 preliminary, he came in sixth in the event and he was really down. He kept apologizing for not placing and he felt that he had let everyone down. But when we got the results and he found out that he had set a personal best time of 6:30 seconds, he was pretty excited. In the 1600 meter final, he finished with a personal best time of 6:20.00. Even though he went into each race
knowing that it would take a miracle for him to place in the top three, he still found the strength, deep within himself, to finish with his personal best time in every event. I won’t say it didn’t take a lot of positive talk from the coaching staff and support from his teammates to help Hazen get his mental thinking back to “All you can do is go as fast as you possible can. If you run faster than you ever have then it is the luck of the draw who you race against.” Hazen’s ability to dig down and truly give his all, no matter who he was up against, speaks volumes to the athlete that Hazen is. So over the next few weeks, when you see Hazen, even though there are no medals hanging around his neck, please take the time to shake his hand and acknowledge that this man just ran the race of his life six times and did our community very proud.

On Feb. 27 the Hurricanes became the 20152016 VIAHA Female Atom League Champions with an impressive 9-0-1 record to finish two points above their fiercest competition, the
Oceanside Icebreakers, whose only loss was to the CR Hurricanes. Of the nine victories, Hurricanes goalie McKenna Harris recorded two shutout wins. The Atom Hurricanes capped off their perfect season this past weekend by capturing the playoff Championship.

In Sunday’s championship game, the Hurricanes’ Callee Stromme opened the scoring in the first period, but Oceanside quickly answered with a goal of their own. Tied 1-1 going into the second, Oceanside took the lead early in the period.

Oceanside could not get past the Hurricanes defense Raci Frumento, Dana Kenny, Akira Isaac, and Desmet. Sealing Oceanside’s fate, Samarah Drygasuk scored, assisted by Elizabeth Bettenson and Emma Deagle.The final score was 7-4.

$
The U16 Upper Island Riptide Boys soccer team played a unique semifinal match on Sunday, March 6 in the Vancouver Island Premier League’s (VIPL) A- Cup playdowns. The Riptide team, having finished in third place with a record of 7-7-2 during regular season play, faced off against the strong second-place team from the lower Island, Saanich Fusion/ Prospect Lake (10-4-2) at Lochside Turf Field for the second time in as many weeks. This was due to the fact that Saanich con-
tested the previous weekend’s semi-final match between the two teams, which was won by the Riptide 1-0 in OT, on a technicality related to the referee not blowing his whistle on a free kick. The league supported Saanich’s protest. Hence the second semi-final match this past weekend. From the 2015-2016 regular season matches these two teams played against each other, the record stood at two wins for Saanich, one win for the Riptide and one tie. All of these games were close.

U14 Riptide Boys best Saanich Fusion to win the “A” Cup Playdowns This was by far one of the best tactical games the Riptide boys played this year. For those parents and fans that came out to watch on Sunday March 6, they were entertained with intense game play, a little drama and some cheekiness from the moment the ref blew his whistle. Saanich Fusion played aggressively in the first half, and almost had the upper hand, but that was quickly defused by the Riptide defense. Shutting down the Fusion strikers and redistributing the ball
up the pitch contributed to the first goal of the game which came from Riptide outside wing Spencer Fleming. A beautiful use of speed and patience allowed him to sneak behind the Fusions defenders and unleash a deadly strike that found the back of the net! The second goal came late in the first half from Spencer again. The build-up from the back was once again the key to the success. The Fusion, now frustrated by the impenetrable Riptide defensive wall and superb goal-
The U14 Boys Riptide celebrate their second goal on Sunday.
tending..., attempted to change the pace. A combination of bumping and risky aggressive tactics backfired on Saa-
nich and resulted in five yellow cards. Late in the second half, a Fusion defender initiated an aggressive take down on
a Riptide winger in the 18 yard box. A penalty kick was awarded to Riptide, who responded with a little
attitude; Riptide striker (Fergus Hall) signalled to teammate Spencer, and instead of Fergus striking the ball directly at the Fusion goal, he lightly tapped the ball to his left and Spencer ran onto the ball and laid a wicked strike that zipped by the goaltender, who was left with his hands raised above his head in disbelief! The goal was in response to the Fusions cheeky game play. It frustrated and exhausted any counter attack that Saanich had left. Final score was 5 – 0 for the Riptide! Honourable mention to Spencer
who came away with a hat-trick, Alonzo Cortez with 1 goal, and Fergus who snuck one pass the goaltender in the dying minutes of the second half. “Every player was very strong today” said Coach Steve Hall and added “Opposition were finally broken down by pace and penetrating passes. A complete team game!” This win puts the Riptide Marine Harvest U14 boys through to the Coastal A Cup which will occur after the Spring break and then to the Provincials which will be held in July.

LAND USE BYLAW, 1993, Amendment No. 11 Date of Public Hearing: March 17, 2016 Location of Public Hearing:
Murray Hall Surge Narrows, BC
Public Hearing for Bylaw No. 243 will commence at: 1:00 p.m. BYLAW NO. 243 Area affected by proposed Bylaw No. 243: The subject area is described as unsurveyed Crown foreshore or land covered by water being part of the bed of Calm Channel, District Lot 1051, Upper Rendezvous Island, Sayward District as shown on the map below.
Kwakiutl Bear Pole to be replaced If you have driven past the Museum at Campbell River this week you may have noticed that something is missing. The Kwakiutl Bear Pole carved by Sam Henderson, which has been standing in front of the Museum overlooking Discovery Passage, had to be taken down on Tuesday. The pole was part of the Route of the Totems Centennial project in 1966. It was located in downtown Campbell River until 2002 when it was moved to its current location. Over the decades since the pole was commissioned, issues of ownership and responsibility for its maintenance became clouded. Conservation of the pole, as well as of other poles commissioned for this route, was not con-
sidered at the outset and over time there was deterioration. Unfortunately, the deterioration of Sam Henderson’s Kwakiutl Bear Pole has left it beyond repair despite earlier attempts to restore it. The removal of the pole was done under the watchful eye of the Henderson family. The pole is being returned to the family, specifically to Sam Henderson’s son Master Carver Bill Hen-
.
derson. Bill, who is the current head carver at the Campbell River Indian Band’s carving shed, will be the lead carver on a replacement pole that has been commissioned by the Museum. This new 20-foot pole will be a testament to the continuing carving traditions in our community. The museum plans to take this opportunity to document and film the carving process and create a film that will allow
us to see how the knowledge of carving is passed from one generation to the next. Sandra Parrish, Executive Director at the Museum at Campbell River, looks forward to this project, to be undertaken in 2016. “Although we are saddened that the older pole had to be removed, the commissioning of a new pole is an exciting opportunity for the Museum and for the community as a whole.”

Visitor Centre grand re-opening set for Saturday The newly-renovated Campbell River Visitor Centre is welcoming residents and visitors with a grand re-opening this Saturday. Visitor Centre and tourism staff will host a community celebration Saturday, March 12 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. The grand re-opening includes chances to win day passes to Mount Washington and Mount Cain. The Visitor Centre has been refreshed with west coast wood features and offers a wide range of unique and handcrafted local and regional merchandise in the gift shop.
Check out the new look and browse the books, candles, cards, chocolate, clothing, colouring books, jams and jellies, jewelry, journals, natural and organic soaps, ornaments, plush toys, pottery, spa products, travel mugs and west coast art. “In 2015, Tourism Campbell River & Region staff welcomed approximately 40,000 guests to our community at the Visitor Centre. With numbers expected to increase in 2016, the time was right for a refresh that better reflects the unique local character and opportuni-
ties,” says Mayor Andy Adams. “With the new Discovery Guide and the enhanced experience at the Visitor Centre, we look forward to making an even more memorable impression on visitors and future residents as we share information about the many, many appealing attractions to explore and enjoy in Campbell River and the surrounding region,” says Mary Ashley, president of the Campbell River Economic Development Corporation. The Campbell River Visitor Centre develops tourism promotions and works with

unaware of their status. A I D S Va n c o u v e r Island’s testing day on March 16 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Campbell River AVI office (1371c Cedar St.) aims to provide accessible HIV and STI testing, promote awareness about the importance of early detection and educate individuals about how simple it is to implement regular testing as part of a healthy lifestyle. The event will feature point-of-care tests, including the Rapid HIV test, with results available in less than 60 seconds. Vaccinations, STI testing, harm reduction supplies and support, liver health information and pre/post-test counselling will also be offered. “We can provide testing and offer support all in one visit. We’re hoping people will come to the event and see how easy getting tested can be,” says Leanne Wingert, key event organizer and support worker at AVI in Campbell River. Light refreshments will be offered to those who attend plus a chance to win one of the door prizes.

Do you have good hearing but poor comprehension? Do you sometimes feel that you can hear well, but not fully understand what’s being said? This can be most evident in social conversations and watching television. Fortunately, there may be a solution for some people dealing with this type of hearing loss - the Audéo Venture hearing aid has been designed specifically to help improve speech comprehension without being noticeable in the ear. Poor comprehension in conversation can possibly be caused by undetected hearing loss in the high-frequency range. This means the sensory cells in the cochlea that hear high-range sounds are damaged as a result of circulatory disorders, diabetes, sudden hearing loss or workplace noise. Hearing loss in the high frequency range makes speech sound muffled and unclear making it difficult to hear consonants like s, f, t, k, h and g. Speech comprehension is even more challenging when there is background noise or when television programs have background music. The dilemma is that people with hearing loss in the high-frequency range do not consider themselves to have a hearing problem. They can hear deep tones with no issue,

However, the time soon comes when problems with comprehension become annoying.

Most wine blended with small writers overlook these upstart and affordable quantities of white Roussanne or Marwines on the grounds sanne grapes. Despite that they are chimethe ‘edgy’ intensity and ras – loosely defined dusty blackberry fruit by Merriam-Wester as
monsters from Greek mythology that breathe fire and have a lion’s head, a goat’s body, and a snake’s tail – a bit muddled? Be that as it may, the popularity of these wines with everyday wine lovers in incontestable. They dominate the market for Shiraz… even if they are rather difficult to define and virtually impossible to credit to any respectable wine growing region. Rather than poohpooh’ing wines like ‘Screw It!” Shiraz (208801) $8.20 and Copper Moon Shiraz (874552) $8.85, perhaps we ought to be trying to decide what makes them so outrageously popular? This has apparently never occurred to more exalted wine writers. With this in mind, WineWise convened an expert panel. ‘Screw It!” Shiraz (208801) $8.20 is dry and brightly acidic
on first sip, aromas of fresh cut green pepper and some light woodsy vanilla are intriguingly overlaid with cassis – the French and more acceptably wine-sophisticate term for blackcurrant. Those same flavours follow through into a clean, dry finish reminiscent of an affordable Chilean – or even French -red wine. With a jammy, fruity cherry candy and cola flavour profile that slides into muddled blackberry and old wood, Copper Moon Shiraz (874552) $8.85 tastes like an Australian red made by a Californian winemaker. With an abundance of sweet fruit, the wine needs no food. When Yellow Tail Shiraz (624544) $11.35 made its amazing debut in North America in 2001, it shook the wine world. By 2003 it was by far the best selling imported wine and by 2005 it had sales

Qui Ocho Syrah (772582) $13.45 comes to us from the Colchagua Valley in Chile. Without being totally dry and dusty in the style of the Rhône Valley, it flirts with dark berry fruit and finishes with a medley of bittersweet chocolate, sage and smoked meat. A French winemaker would appreciate this red! Still in South America but from Argentina, Decero Syrah (157396) $24.10 simmers with dark fruit aromas and spicy flavours. Bushels of black cherry and
blackberry fruit deceive the senses into thinking this luscious red is sweet before its combination of French oak, ripe tannic earthiness and peppery herbs linger into a dry finish. No slouches when it comes to Syrah, winemakers in South Africa are developing their own opulently fruity ways with the Rhône Valley’s noblest red wine grape. Glen Carlou Syrah (153841) $24.75 adds 6 per cent Mourvèdre for spiciness and dusky dark colour to a melting pot of raspberry and dired cherry fruit aromas and flavours that finishes with a subtle twist of cacao and green garden herbs. Any French winemaker would be very pleased with this uncompromising, intense red wine.

Garden WEEKLY
Is your lawn really mossy this Spring? By Nigel Lambeth, Campbell River Garden Centre In Campbell River our soil naturally tends to be quite acidic and that is not ideal for lawns. Acidic soil becomes mossy quite quickly. If your yard is shady or if you have large conifer trees on your property your soil will be even more acidic. Here are some tips on dealing with moss. 1) Measure your lawn area. The average homeowners lawn measure between 3000 and 4000 square feet front and back lawns combined. If your lawn is not average you should measure it. A long pace is about 3 feet so it can be measured in a very small amount of time. A 40’ X 50’ lawn is 2000 square feet. If you have the same 40’X 50’ size lawn front and back you would have 4000 square feet in total. 2) Getting rid of existing moss. You can use either liquid or granular moss control to get rid of the existing moss. We find the 9-3-6
Granular Moss Control to be the most effective form. You need about 2 days of dry, sunny weather after application for the ferrous sulphate (iron) in your Moss Control to work well, so timing is important. The Moss Control goes onto a damp or dewy lawn and then you withhold water for 48 hours. After 10 days the moss will have all turned black and it can be raked or thatched out of the lawn. If your lawn is quite thin after thatching you can over seed your lawn with a blend like Evergro Overseed which is made to rejuvenate your lawn. Grass seed is generally safe to sow after April 15th.
Spring and Fall is ideal. You should use a dolomite lime in either the regular granular form or the pelletized form to sweeten up the soil. Although both forms of lime work great the pelletized lime, Dolopril, is now the most popular form of lime for lawns because it is so much easier to apply. It not only goes through a spreader easier, it is also less dusty so it gets down to the ground better.
3) Adjusting the pH to encourage a healthy lawn and discourage the moss from regrowth. Once you have removed the dead moss you can lime your lawn. Grass grows best in more alkaline soil so liming your lawn

hat resembles a giantsized Lego is helping coho and steelhead populations in the Quinsam River. Instead of Lego pieces, however, large, specifically cut sections of yellow cedar logs have been strategically anchored to the bottom of the river. Their placement is designed to direct river flows to overcome upstream migration problems of steelhead and coho during periods of high and low water. The project, involving two cascade sections of the Quinsam directly below Lower Quinsam Lake, used a Bell 206 Jet Ranger helicopter to get the logs, donated by Western Forest Products, to the riverbed, part of an approach the designers say will reduce the footprint such projects can have on the surrounding environment. It is yet another local project funded by the Campbell River Salmon Foundation (CRSF) at a total cost of approximately $160,000. A
fisheries officer identified the partial barrier in the 1930s, but it was considered too expensive — $6,000 — to fix. The improved passage opens up a large area of under-utilized spawning and rearing habitat for coho and steelhead. “This project could have been constructed using several different approaches, but we chose to conduct the works utilizing hand tools and electrically powered hand tools instead of larger equipment such as excavators, hydraulic tools or pneumatic (gas or pressurized air) tools in an effort to keep impacts to a minimum,” said Tristan Gale BSc, of Pacificus Biological Services, who did the work. Once the logs were manhandled into place, workers drilled holes through them and then into the bedrock. The holes were then filled with epoxy and pieces of galvanized threaded rod were sledgehammered through the logs, into the bedrock and then the logs were actually

bolted into place. The project diverts the river’s flow and creates deeper pockets in the river for salmonid migration. Sections of the bedrock were also
removed to create rest pools and ‘step’ pools for the salmon and steelhead, allowing them better thrust to their jumps on their upstream journey.

The Quinsam is the main tributary of the Campbell River. Quinsam River salmon are caught by sport, commercial and First Nations fisheries on the inside passage between Vancouver Island and the mainland, the central and north coast of British Columbia and in waters off Alaska. In any tourist town, there is always an effort to enhance shoulder seasons. And the Quinsam does that for the local sport fishery. The steelhead season on the Quinsam runs from November to April, with fresh fish entering the system on a regular basis. “We think this project is really going to help the coho and steelhead in the Quinsam River,” said Martin Buchanan president of the CRSF. “And we really have to thank our partners D. Burt and Associates,
Northwest Hydraulic Consultants, Pacificus Biological Services, Western Forest Products, Pacific Wood Waste Inc., E and B Helicopters, United Rentals, Timberwest and the people and businesses of Campbell River and area who donated to our foundation. This is a classic example of locally raised money going to a vital local fisheries enhancement project.” The 2016 season will be the first test of the project’s effectiveness, starting with steelhead
migration taking place now and then when the coho return in the fall. A similar project on another cascade area of the Quinsam River in 2005 helped pink salmon, which are poor jumpers, access another 14 km of upstream spawning waters. In 2005 30,000 pinks returned to the Quinsam/Campbell system and in 2010 the return jumped to over a million. “It’s going to be exciting to see how this works out,” said Buchanan.

‘Sexylarious’ Comic Strippers here March 19
A fictitious male stripper troupe, played by a cast of some of Canada’s best improvisational comedians, performs a sexylarious improv comedy show next weekend. The Comic Strippers perform March 19 at 7:30 p.m. at the Tidemark Theatre. These guys try to be sexy — it just comes out funny. Constantly grooving and gyrating in between scenes, they banter with the crowd and perform their hilarious twist on improv sketches. They sing, they “dance.” These guys are oiled up and ready to make you laugh at them, fresh off sold-out shows in

“Miss Peretti, Please spell syzygy.” And so begins the 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, the Timberline Musical Theatre presentation for 2016. “This show is very challenging and showcases the talents of a number of students,” says a press release from the school. “We are very fortunate to have the pool of talent that allows us to produce a play of this nature.”
An eclectic group of middle school spellers — Olive, William, Logainne, Marcy, Leaf and Chip — come together in this charming musical comedy, winner of the Tony and the Drama Desk Awards for the best book. Through hilarious comedy, touching moments and catchy tunes, the spellers reveal their hopes and dreams, their passions and their struggles as they com-
pete for the championship. “While the characters onstage are meant to be 10 to 12 years old, this is not a ‘kids’ show,’ as the humour is directed to a more mature audience,” said Jana MacFarlane, the director of the production. Celine Ouelette, the producer and musical director of the production, is proud of the energy and talent students have brought to
the stage. “Students have been working on this production for several months,” she said. “Everyone has a chance to shine in this musical, as it showcases many of Timberline’s students.” The final shows take places March 11 and 12 Timberline Secondary School. Tickets are sold at the Timberline main office or online at sd72.bc.ca/ school/timberline.
Pop into your greenest leprechaun leotard and sashay over to the Big Yellow Merville Hall for a St. Patrick’s Day Ultra Green Contra Dance. On March 19, it will be all green and gold as the Funtime Fiddlers kiss the Blarney Stone and pump out the jigs and reels for the highly popular contra dances. Led by our own daffodowndilly dance caller, June, you’ll frolic about the dance hall with laughter and a light heart. All are welcome to attend this family-friendly function At 7:30 p.m., as Irish luck would have it, the Funtime Fiddlers leap onto the stage, start the music and the gaiety begins. Single dancers and families are very welcome. Singles can
pair up with anyone during the Contras and our Contra sets last about 15 to 20 minutes. In between the called Contra dances, we’ll play
waltzes and reels, jigs and swing tunes, as well as line up some talented soloists for some Irish inspiration. Doors open at 7 p.m.
It costs $10 for adults, $5 for youth (kids six and younger get in for free) or come as a family for $22. A free workshop starts at 7 p.m.

BOOMERS & Beyond Assisted living rules to be relaxed Assisted living facilities in B.C. will soon be able to offer more services to seniors and disabled people to stay independent longer. Health Minister Terry Lake introduced changes Monday that restrict assisted living providers to two of six prescribed services. Patients requiring more than two are now required to find space in residential care. The change removes “arbitrary barriers” that have forced B.C. residents into higher-cost and more restrictive residential care before they need it, said B.C. Seniors Advocate Isobel Mackenzie. “Assisted living is a very important housing option for about 22,000 seniors in this province,” Mackenzie said. “These are your own unit, usually in an apartment-like setting where you can lock the door. You decide who
comes in and who you want to keep out, and you’re free to come and go as you wish.” Daniel Fontaine, CEO of the B.C. Care Providers Association, said the change will be welcomed by seniors who want to stay as independent as possible. The association represents 300 non-profit and for-profit operators of residential care, assisted living and home care services. Designated services, of which only two can currently be provided in assisted living, are: • assistance with eating, dressing, personal hygiene and other daily activities • medication management • therapeutic diets • financial management • intensive rehabilitation therapy • behavioural management
Coming Events The Campbell River Seniors’ Centre at the Campbell River Common mall will be full of activity over the next couple of months. The fun kicks off next Friday, March 18 when the seniors host a pot luck dinner in the main dining room of the centre. Dinner is from 4 to 6 p.m. and entertainment has been arranged. All guests are encouraged to bring a dish to share. An Advanced Care Planning session, hosted by the Campbell River Hospice Society, takes place on Tuesday, March 22 from 12:30 to 2:30 p.m. in Jesse’s Room. Those two events will be followed by a spring crafts sale on Saturday, April 16 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Campbell River Common. The seniors are looking for help with crafts and baked goods. Anyone who is willing to volunteer is encouraged to email Katie Defert at
crscs@shawlink.ca The Seniors’ Society is also looking for office volunteers to put in either half or full days between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. on Wednesdays. Duties involve answering the phone and taking members (training will be provided). The society is also looking for a newsletter editor to help write the inhouse monthly newsletter to keep seniors apprised of upcoming events and happenings. Anyone familiar with MS Office and a passion for layout can contact Jean Driscoll-Bell at crscs@shawlink.ca The centre, which is completely volunteer-driven, encourages anyone with experience in the above mentioned areas to get in touch. The Seniors’ Centre is open Monday to Friday, with a lunch program each day. Programs include yoga, line dancing, bridge, Mexican Train, cribbage and bingo.

What is a BIA? The Downtown Business Improvement Association (BIA) is an association of commercial property owners and tenants which helps make Downtown the destination of choice for residents and visitors - to shop, dine, be entertained, work and live. The BIA aims to ensure a vibrant and prosperous Downtown through marketing, special events, improvements, beautification and partnership opportunities.

How Does a BIA Work? The BIA is run by a volunteer Board of Directors elected from its members with one administrative staff. The Board is nominated at an Annual General Meeting; it works on behalf of the BIA and meets regularly to develop budgets, set priorities, implement capital improvements, plan events and promote its business area.

Hard-working mom living out her dreams given to her and she believes her talents are for business. “It’s just a gift from God, that wisdom and knowledge,” the member of the Pentecostal Church says. “I didn’t go to school to learn about this. It’s just a gift from God.” It’s that spiritual base that inspires her to give part of her profits to charity. Although it’s a thrift store, the stock has not been acquired from donations. It’s all been bought. Qualitown will be accepting donations but it’s not what is driving the business. So far, the reception from the city has been good. People are very happy with the business, the

selection, the location, the prices and the cleanliness of the store, she says. “People are ver y pleased about that,” she says. Qualitown has 10 employees and Bleaney leans on those people for their own individual talents. For example, she doesn’t know much about tools but some staff members do and they advise her on what to charge. After grudgingly stopping for half an hour to discuss her business, Bleaney gets back to work bustling to make a success of her dream. If the sense of energy and drive she gives off is anything to go by, it would be hard to bet against her.

The idea, in its most general terms, is to put sensors in the ocean so we can make smart decisions about local management of resources and the local use of the ocean.” In layman’s terms, they’re attaching the ocean to the Internet. Part of what makes the program truly innovative, Hoeberechts says, is that the data is gathered and made immediately available – not only to researchers, but also the

Ocean Networks Canada (ONC) – a research facility based out of the University of Victoria – came to town Friday to announce its newest project. ONC operates many oceanography research initiatives all over the coast of Canada, including an 800 km long system of deep sea fibre optic cables and monitoring equipment off the west coast of Vancouver Island. “We’re trying to ensure that people in communities can make the most use possible of the instruments that we install locally and offshore,” said Associate Director of User Services at ONC, Maia Hoeberechts, to those gathered at the Explorer Lab at the Maritime Heritage Museum Friday. “We’re trying to promote the use of ocean technology for monitoring so that people can make their own decisions about their environment.” To that end, they are installing the first of their new Smart Ocean Systems Community Observatories – other than the “proof of concept” test sites in Mill Bay and Cambridge Bay in Nunuvut – in Camp-

general public – in real time. “Given the right tools and easy accessibility, scientific information coming from the ocean could be used by everyone in the community,” she says. “From students to councillors to fishers, the community observatory can help them ground their decisions about their coastal and marine resources in science — or simply to better understand the ocean at their doorstep.” In December, ONC installed the shore-based components of the observatory – antennae and communication equipment for transferring the data, and an above water weather station, for example – and later this week, assuming the weather cooperates, will be the installation of the seafloor platform outfitted with the rest of the monitoring equipment. That equipment
includes a live-streaming video camera, a hydrophone to record the sounds of ships and sea life such as the pods of whales that travel by periodically along with other devices to record water properties such as temperature, salinity, oxygen and chlorophyl levels – the basic readings scientists are interested in knowing. Then, at the Cape Mudge L ig ht hous e, another installation will be performed, consisting of a radar system which will monitor the surface of the water to gather surface current data. Their original intent was to actually launch the Campbell River Observatory on Friday, but due to weather conditions, they had to push it back. Ho e b e re c ht s s ay s they’ve learned to be flexible like that, though. When you study nature, you have to let it do the talking. They’ll be back up this way as soon as possible to get the platform in the water and get it online, however, at which point anyone with an Internet connection will be able to see, in real time, what’s happening along our shore. Check out their current data gathering and installations at oceannetworks. ca/installations and follow along with them on Facebook (OceanNetworksCanada) and Twitter (@ocean_networks) to watch for updates on the launch of the new platform.

CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR FIRST ISSUE 1971
Confidential support service for women is closing its doors after 38 years on North Island
FRIDAY, MARCH MARCH 11, 11, 2016 2016 || CAMPBELL CAMPBELL RIVER RIVER MIRROR MIRROR || 59 59 FRIDAY,
www.CampbellRiverMirror.com www.CampbellRiverMirror.com
The Campbell River chapter of Birthright will be shutting its door after 38 years of serving the community. Since 1977, the organization has provided free, confidential pregnancy support services for women, girls and their families on the North Island. T he s e r v i c e w as offered solely through the efforts of caring volunteers with the support of generous donations
from members of more than 10 local churches. The local chapter was granted status by Birthright International granted in November 1977 to then-director Reine Berns. Berns, along with former director Barrie Calverly, was the heart and soul of the local organization. Since Calverly’s passing in 2013 and Berns’ recent resignation from the board, as well as a
lack of volunteers and a decrease in clients utilizing the services, the remaining members of the board and volunteers made the difficult decision to close the local office. Birthright’s 24-hour emergency Helpline (1-800-550-4900) continues to be accessible to anyone dealing with an unplanned pregnancy. Information is also always available on Birthright’s website and
can be found at birthright.org. The Victoria office (250-380-0322) is still available on Vancouver Island and there are also offices in Vancouver, Surrey and Penticton. The Comox Pregnancy Care Centre offers similar services to Birthright and will continue on with Birthright’s Operation Baby Bottle Fundraiser. Anyone who would like to donate to the
Comox Pregnancy Care Centre can call 1-250380-0322. Local Birthright funds will be forwarded to Birthright International head office and be held in trust for two years in the event that a new chapter reopens locally. After such time, the funds will be dispersed to other B.C. chapters, as well as the Helpline. Many women and their babies were able to access support locally
throughout the years. The remaining volunteers and board members wish to express their heartfelt thanks to those that have generously supported Birthright of Campbell River. Birthright began in 1968 in Toronto. It started when Louise Summerhill, a busy housewife and mother of seven children, felt something should be done to help women facing unplanned preg-
nancies. The Toronto chapter quickly grew into Birthright International, the world’s first international crisis pregnancy service, according to Birthright’s website. There are now chapters across Canada, the United States and Africa. The organization’s services are always free, and confidential and are available to any woman, regardless of age, race, religion, marital status or financial situation.

Garden supplies fresh food for cafeteria JASMINE MACGREGOR CARIHI MIRROR
“I want a garden where my students can go out and learn about where their food comes from.” That was part of teacher Jessica Mann’s goal when she started her Carihi garden initiative. Mann teaches the cafeteria program at Carihi, as well as the baking class, and she runs the school’s Gardening Club. The garden itself was
built with the help of various groups within the school and this will be the school’s second year using it. “I really want to connect [the garden] with my program and have my students harvest things to use in the food we serve in our cafeteria,” said Mann. Unlike a regular high school foods class, Mann’s cafeteria program allows students to gain experience in a professional kitchen, serving and preparing
food. Her students gain valuable hands-on skills that can be put on their resumés. Mann teaches in the morning during A and B block and the students work through the morning preparing food so that it is ready to serve by lunchtime. Last year, Mann’s gardening students grew lots of fresh greens, vegetables, berries and herbs that were used in many of the cafeteria’s menu items. “The awkward thing

is,” Mann says, “most of this stuff is ready in the summer when we’re not in class. We had it on a self-watering timer system, so I came back to the school a few times over summer to harvest what I could. When we came back in September, we took all our tomatoes and made salsa. We had a lot of kale, so we made kale chips. We used the rhubarb in my baking classes and had peas for our salads. “It worked out so that we had stuff to harvest during the first few weeks and the last few weeks of the school year.” Mann hopes to see more programs benefit from the garden than just hers. “It’s not my garden; it’s the school’s garden,” she says. “I want to share the

space with everyone and have everyone contribute to it. The woodworking classes have already built benches that are out there now and I would love to see art students build sculptures to put around it and have it become this place where students come to eat
their lunch and enjoy the garden.” Mann herself is not an expert gardener but she loved having her mother’s garden growing up and being able to cook with the beautiful produce she grew. She is learning from the school garden, as are her stu-
dents. The garden will promote gardening to the younger generation and contribute to the strong sense of community in the student body. “It’s still a work in progress but I’m excited to see how it grows in the years to come,” said Mann.
many activities that have such a sense of belonging like rock climbing.” These are Phillip Stone’s thoughts while reflecting on what rock
climbing and mountaineering has provided him. Since Stone is so involved with community building and publishing, it should come as
no surprise that he, with the help of Anthonie PJ and Tak Ogasawara, has been actively developing routes on Chinese Mountain on Quadra Island for the public to utilize for recreational climbing/hiking, educational purposes and tourist attractions. Stone will be hosting a weekend outdoor a dve ntu re / cl i mbi ng event on the weekend of June 4 and 5 on Chinese Mountain “to celebrate West Coast climbing.” Attendees will have access to more than 150 established routes with a wide range of difficulty, from easy to challenging.

Youth don’t get many opportunities to voice their opinions. But in Campbell River, the Youth Action Committee (YAC) give youth a voice in city decisions. On March 7, YAC members — including myself as chair — presented to Campbell River council regarding their research into downtown revitalization. YAC began working on downtown revital-
ization in early November. When the members voted for their top pick for the 2015-16 year priority, downtown revitalization came out as a clear interest. YAC then took a tour of downtown and noted that the downtown was rather bland but had much potential. They did some workshops and research to create a survey for the youth of Campbell River, asking them what they’d want to see in our downtown. Five hundred and fifty-two surveys were
completed, giving YAC a good idea of what Campbell River youth wanted to see. From there, three YAC members volunteered to present to council: cochair Ben Lowe, committee member Meara Spiers and myself. The presentation went very well. YAC received a warm response from council, which was very appreciative of the committee’s research and opinions. Lowe explained how he felt afterwards, saying that, “it was a fun, excit-
ing experience [and] I think we did a great job on the presentation.” Spiers felt that “presenting to council was a memorable experience that I’m glad I was a part of.” The Youth Action Committee’s presentation to council provided a unique experience for the members of YAC, as well as helped to create a more balanced and well-represented community, as council will now have the opinion of those who can’t vote to consider as well.

while he was still living in Europe. Little did his family know the implications of introducing Stone to climbing and outdoors culture would have on the Campbell River and Quadra Island climbing community and on tourism accessibility to the outdoors. Stone has written and published multiple guidebooks, such as Island Alpine and Coastal Hikes. Having grown up in Europe where the outdoors tourism and guidebooks are readily available, he was shocked at “how far behind the West Coast [was]” in comparison. Stone has always been passionate about photography and adventure and has a knack for publishing. He saw the guidebook situation on the West Coast as a great opportunity for him to pursue something that he enjoys while “providing people with info to explore and make [a] livelihood.” Overall, Stone has been an asset in providing tourists the information they need to be able to properly appreciate and understand the “beautiful West Coast.”
