New Logger Mike takes his place
www.CampbellRiverMirror.com www.CampbellRiverMirror.com
MIKE DAVIES
CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
The new Logger Mike, carved by local award-winning artist Cody LaFrance, has officially taken his rightful place upon his spar pole downtown. City crews raised Mike on Tuesday morning – work which was made slightly more difficult because of the wind – where he will now remain, replacing the old Logger Mike, which was replaced due to age. The original Mike, carved by Dean Lemke
in 1984 as part of a downtown revitalization project, had been taken down for repairs and restorations numerous times throughout the years, but it was decided last year that he could no longer handle more work being done on him, and would need to be actually replaced. During the replacement discussions at City Council, many options were bandied about, including having Mike on a bench to facilitate photo opportunities, making him out of another material that would be more
durable, even moving him to another location within the city. In the end, however, it was decided that Mike belonged on his spar pole downtown – albeit lower down so people can get a better look at him and perhaps take photos more easily – so a call went out for artists interested in creating a new one, with LaFrance being selected to produce the work, which was unveiled at Transformations on the Shore last month. -With files by Kristen Douglas

Rachel Blaney and fellow MP Tracey Ramsey hosted an antiTrans Pacific Partnership information meeting at the Maritime Heritage Centre on Tuesday evening. Ramsey is one of the vice-chairs of the Standing Committee on International Trade as well as the federal trade critic. She and the rest of the trade committee are compiling a report about the TPP and what Canadians think of it and presenting it to parliament. Ramsey said that this report provides the MPs with much of the information they will use to decide how to vote. Ramsey told those in attendance Tuesday night that Canada signed on for the Trans Pacific Partnership in 2012, four years after negotiations on the agreement had begun, and when we joined we accepted everything that had previously been negotiated. “We enter in to this position of JOCELYN DOLL/CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR weakness,” Ramsey said.

The city has been working with consultant Suzanne Denbak of Cadence Strategies and Laura Plant over the past several months to develop a new tourism strategy for the city, city manager Deborah Sargent said in a report to council.

Allow development applicants to address Council only if staff report includes a negative recommendation;
Schedule delegations at the beginning of the meeting for up to a maximum of 30 minutes. All remaining delegations would present at the end of the meeting, except those delegations presenting on an issue that is on the agenda to be considered by Council;

of business that would collect the tax within the municipality, representing at least 51 per cent of the total number of rooms is required for a MRDT application to the province. Sargent said that a majority of both hotel rooms and number of properties with city limits have indicated their support for the three per cent MRDT by signing a petition which will accompany the application to the province. Campbell River is
applying for the maximum tax rate – three per cent – allowed under the province’s MRDT tax. The city pays $250,000 annually for local tourism marketing, programs and projects. The MRDT application would provide an additional funding stream of up to $290,000 for tourism marketing, programs and projects. Cadence Strategies introduced the draft five-year Tourism Plan to council, the accommodation sector and stakeholders in a series of meetings held at the end of June and is currently working closely with the city and hotel sector.

As the largest fundraiser of the year, Parkinson SuperWalk is integral to PSBC’s operations. At the heart of the success of SuperWalk are the participants, including Jim who has had Parkinson’s for about 10 years. He goes for a brisk walk daily to help combat some of the effects of the disease. We as a family benefit greatly from the support and services offered by The Parkinson Society Of BC and our local support group The Campbell River Parkinson Self Help Support Group. Every year, thousands of British Columbians like Jim, participate in Parkinson SuperWalk. Together, through our fundraising efforts, we can continue our quest for a cure and support those touched by Parkinson’s.

This September, family, friends and coworkers are teaming up for Parkinson SuperWalk to inspire hope in over 13,300 British Columbians living with Parkinson’s disease. This year marks the 21st anniversary of the event taking place in British Columbia, with over 20 communities participating. Registered walkers will exercise their superpowers by generating awareness of the disease and helping to raise funds for valuable education, resources, support services and research. You can help make a difference by joining our community heroes on Sept. 11 at 1 p.m. at Willow Point Hall. Parkinson Society British Columbia (PSBC) is committed to helping those affected by Parkinson’s disease live well. Research has shown that exercise plays an important role in helping to manage the symptoms of the disease. As a result, the Society has invested significant resources in training professionals to lead Parkinson’s specific exercise programming in communities across the province. In 2015, the Society doubled their programming over the previous year, including introducing webinar presentations to expand their reach. “The programs and services offered by the Society are essential,” says Jean Blake, CEO of PSBC. “The positive feedback we have received from the attendees of our educational sessions has often times indicated that the information shared was life altering. This is frequently the case with our communication & swallow seminars, which help to

My first (but definitely not last) Arts Fest
I hummed and hawed about whether or not to get a booth at Rivercity Arts Fest this year when the announcement came out that they were starting to book them. I’d been getting back into painting now that I finally had the room to do so – I actually went to university originally, way back in the last century, to become a visual artist – and I thought I was just about ready to start showing my new work to the world, but I wasn’t sure. Eventually, I convinced myself that it would be worth the money and time. So I wandered into Impressions Custom Framing and Gallery one day to get myself a spot in the festival, and it just so happened that Jan Wade from the Downtown Business Improvement Association was in there talking to Kris Sand about not being able to find anyone willing to paint their new community piano. “Um….I’ll paint a piano,” said

Maybe it’s coincidence and maybe it isn’t, but the B.C. Day long weekend arrives at the perfect time of year for getting out and enjoying B.C. Whether we’re Beautiful B.C. or Super, Natural B.C. or the Best Place on Earth, well, we’ll leave that up to the marketing experts to decide. We do know there’s a lot to like about British Columbia and that we’re lucky to live here. The long weekend is a great time to explore the province and some of the best of B.C. is right here. We’re situated between the seaside and the forest; we can choose amenities and activities or peace and quiet. Visitors from around the world understand our province’s charms – tourism indicators are pretty much up across the board in 2016, according We say: Visitors to Destination British from around the Columbia figures. As of last month, interworld understand national tourism to B.C. B.C.’s charms was up 14 per cent for the year. And we don’t even need to stay in a hotel or take a plane or a boat; rather, all it takes is a whim to go discover some new perspective of our province. While the views are pretty, B.C. isn’t a perfect place. We’re only beautiful if there is beauty within. We should hope for a more compassionate society, a more robust and diverse economy, a more fairly funded education system, better accessibility to healthcare, clean air and water, jobs, homes, dignity and quality of life for all. Now is the time to vocalize our wants and needs, because with the next B.C. provincial election just nine months away, political leaders are listening, or should be. Some see the bits of B.C. that are broken and think we should break away, and become the province of Vancouver Island. There are a lot of flaws in that reasoning – for instance, then we might have to work on B.C. Day, and that would be a drag. Because B.C. is beautiful and super and natural and the best place we know, and it’s worth celebrating. – Black Press

collapsed from heatstroke. 2. Volunteers are awesome. There was no shortage of people donating their time, asking if they could be of help, directing traffic during set-up and tear-down, providing entertainment and bringing smiles to the party. 3. Artists are awesome, too. Everyone was very supportive of everyone else, it seemed. There was no competition for the dollars being spent on art, or jealousy when someone made a purchase at someone else’s booth, because artists, in general, just aren’t like that. Anyway, I’d just like to again thank everyone that made the the weekend the wonderful event that it was. Watch for the new piano to be out and about in the community soon. I’m a bit biased, but I think it looks pretty cool. And you can bet I’ll be back down there next year, too – under a tent of some kind.

Hospital staff endured years of a crumbling facility I was admitted to Campbell River General Hospital in the middle of March for scheduled major surgery. Near the end of my fifteen day stay I was always encouraged to walk the ward whenever I felt up to it and that brief escape from my bed became pretty routine for the last three or four days. So I was, through the window at the end of the hall, able to watch the new hospital project move ever so slowly toward the reality of the large artist’s conception mounted on the wall behind me.
However, whenever I stood up from this window view of the ‘soon to be’ spanking new hospital I was suddenly wrenched back to reality as I turned and looked back up the hallway. There were usually racks of meal trays with accompanying dirty dishes, large red laundry hampers waiting for the latest soiled gowns, one or sometimes two other patients (usually with IV stands) trudging down the hall with or without a helping relative, a housekeeping cart with assorted brooms and cleaning/disinfect-
ing fluids, and always the occasional patient in a wheelchair as well as the periodic patient (in a bed) in an ‘alcove bed’ in the hallway. When you add the near constant flow of doctors and nurses in and out of rooms carrying clipboards, IV bags (some empty, some full), bedpans, little paper cups with all sorts of pills, and then add the seemingly constant pinging of patient call bells...you end up with a vision of semi-chaos and the overwhelming feeling that this narrow hall (this building) simply cannot
support that which must go on. It’s nearly impossible to maintain even rudimentary cleanliness. And then the elevator door might open with two attendants pushing/ pulling a gurney with a new patient looking for a slot somewhere. This, of course, will turn into a major engineering nightmare due to all the aforementioned people and things spread throughout the hallway. Yet somehow it all happens. The nurses, of course, might get a bit behind in their rounds of “doing vitals” for all the patients in the rooms
they are responsible for. The patient ringing the call button may have to wait a bit before the nurse can retrieve his glasses from the floor where he dropped them. And there will be a delay getting to the phone to find an on-call nurse for this evening’s shift which is again short staffed. And these nurses have no conferencing room. At shift change they huddle behind the counter of the nurses’ station to pass on all relevant information to the new shift. This is also where doctors confer with the nurses and each other
when devising whatever new treatment plans are required. Clearly I should be thrilled that a new hospital may help alleviate the many roadblocks to recovery. But I’m not.
Because, when I turn and look to the hallway, I am acutely aware of the fact that these people have been forced to work in this situation for years if not decades. Waiting

Hospital: Not suitable From Pg. 13
to replace a crumbling hospital due to some invented then imposed budgetary constraint is borderline criminal. Current taxation policy should never trump appropriate health care. The nurses and the doctors and the various support staff are the only reason this institution functions, and they somehow manage to provide caring and professional help so that there is a minimum of suffering and a maximum of dignity. And this is in a building nowhere near suitable for its purpose. We have done them and all their patients a disservice by forcing them to work in deplorable conditions where the basic necessities are often not available in a building long past its ‘best before date’. I hope we treat them and all patients differently in the future. A shiny new hospital doesn’t ‘make all the hurt go away’. For some the wait has left permanent scars. Neil Ross Campbell River

New spawning gravel system to be put into play
E
arlier this year the BC Conservation Foundation (BCCF) completed a new skyline, located just downstream of the Elk Falls suspension bridge, to provide gravel placement for salmon habitat in Elk Falls Canyon. Now that infrastructure is bearing fruit with regularly timed gravel placement The gravel placement project that will begin Aug. 3 and run through until Aug. 12. Between these dates, a cable skyline will be re-deployed to connect to either side of the canyon. A gravel trolley will ultimately drop about 250 cubic meters of washed spawning gravel into the river below. The gravel will be brought in using existing and new trails using tracked bobcat type machines. “The John Hart dam stops the natural recruitment of gravel into the canyon from upstream,” says BCCF project lead, Jeramy Damborg. “There’s good fish habitat from the generating station up to Elk Falls. It’s about 1.5 km long and provides spawning and rearing for Steelhead, Coho and Chinook, among other fish. Suitable spawning gravel within the canyon area is a limiting factor to fish production, but since 1999, we have been placing gavel to increase fish productivity.”
New infrastructure installed earlier this year to make spawning gravel replacement easier in the Elk Falls canyon will be put into use beginning Aug. 3
The very difficult access with the steep vertical canyon walls has meant the gravel had been historically delivered in buckets by a heavy lift helicopter. No more. “We plan on delivering gravel to this area annually,” says Damborg. Water releases from the dam disperses the
gravel downstream over time. “We can only tackle the restoration of fish and wildlife in the watershed through community partnerships and this is an example of people and organisations working together to develop those good projects and efficiencies,” says BC Hydro’s Ste-
7x7
phen Watson. “Gravel in the canyon can move from year to year, like in December 2014 from those large storms, when BC Hydro spills water for flood risk management. BCCF has put a good method in place to replenish that gravel on a regular basis to help maintain fish habitat.”
“We went through a similar process with the Rotary Club on the suspension bridge project, and while the goals are for fish for this project, the intent is the same – making it more productive and minimizing any impacts to the park as much as possible,” says BC Parks supervisor, Brent Blackmun. The total project cost is about $61,000. Funding was primarily provided by Fish and Wildlife Compensation Program (FWCP), and the Campbell River Salmon Foundation. FWCP has been the primary funding source for all six previous gravel projects in the canyon, and is a partnership between BC Hydro, the Province of B.C., Fisheries and Oceans Canada, First Nations and public stakeholders “We would like to get the word out that moving machinery will be working in the park for this time starting Aug.t 3. “We will have signage and sometimes flaggers to keep the public safe along the trail” There may also be some short trail delays as we move equipment and materials in and out during the gravel operation. Noise during operations is also expected. We appreciate people’s patience and apologise for any inconvenience.”

Fire Department and BC Wildfire Service join forces for shared training The Campbell River Fire Department trained with the BC Wildfire Service earlier in July.
Crews from the Campbell River Fire Department and the BC Wildfire Service joined forces to train together July 7, strengthening emergency response to fight forest or wild fires near developed areas. “This initiative provides tremendous value to the citizens of Campbell River and surrounding areas. Our fire department works closely with the Wildfire Management Branch, and training together enhances our partner-
ship, increasing our ability to respond to wildfires, particularly those that could spread into adjacent developed land,” says deputy fire chief Thomas Doherty. The training included a review of equipment used by each agency and planning to combine resources when necessary. “It is extremely beneficial to understand each agency’s capacity and how we can work together at times when we are stretched beyond
our capacity with local resources,” Doherty adds. The training also included hands-on work with using portable pumps and water tanks, drafting from a minimal water source and water shuttling – all techniques to employ when a fire is burning far from a readily available water source. “This exercise was another great experience for BC Wildfire Service and Campbell River Fire Department crews. We always learn
from each other, and that knowledge helps us collaborate effectively,” Arlen Kanary, from the BC Wildfire Service says. “These types of fires require many agencies to work together, so exercises like this one prepare first responders for those challenges. Residents can do their part to reduce wildfire risks by using FireSmart principles to create defendable spaces on their properties where firefighters can work.”

J�in Us ��� the First Annual
Campbellton Day! Historic Campbellton puts on a new face Public input is welcome on future developments By John Twigg While it’s increasingly obvious that the face of Campbellton is changing, it’s also becoming more apparent that the tone and feel of Campbell River’s oldest neighbourhood are changing too and for the better! The improving look is apparent from such things as the decorative banners on Tamarac and Willow Streets, new sidewalks, streetlights and pedestrian crossing controls
at several locations in the area, and various business changes such as the reopening of the iconic Quinsam Hotel and the recent opening of Nesbitt’s Island Coffee on the south and north ends respectively of the neighbourhood’s main business street, still known somewhat awkwardly as the (old) Island Highway, among numerous other notable changes such as the relocation of the Fusilli Grill restaurant to its scenic new riverside spot inside the Campbell River Lodge.
A prime example of the improving face of Campbellton is Associated Tire, which this week began installing a new facade on its storefront in the heart of Campbellton (see photo).
But the subtle and still-coming policy changes in Campbellton could be even more significant over time, such as improved, increased and proposed new public accesses to the river shores, the recent addition in two phases of the Campbellton Community Garden hidden away on 15th Avenue off of Petersen Road, and the proposed addition
of an entrance feature on 14th Avenue between the north and southbound lanes of the (still-sort-ofnew) inland Island Highway which is intended to give tourists and other highway travellers a new excuse to stop and reconnoiter their options for entertainment, recreation, meals and other services in all of Campbell River. Many of those changes have been driven or encouraged by the Campbellton Neighbourhood Association, a not-for-profit society formed about four years ago by business leaders and other community activists who had become concerned that the area was falling victim to urban decay, graffiti, petty crime and associated other problems. The Campbellton area did have a Business Improvement Association some years ago which made some progress, such as installing a few dozen planter boxes for flowers, but the BIA lost momentum, suffered from lack of support and then some of the planter boxes fell into disrepair. How best to deal with those and other challenges will be the focus of the CNA’s first-ever Campbellton Day, featuring a free public meeting on Monday, Aug. 1 - which also is the B.C. Day statutory holiday - from 10 a.m. to noon at the Fusilli Grill, at 1760 North Island Highway, and if weather permits it will be held outdoors but if it is raining then it will be indoors. The meeting will include greetings from CNA chair Brian Shaw and other dignitaries then keynote speeches from two prominent longtime residents who helped found the CNA, Ken Enns and

Biking is back at Mount Washington Let’s ride After a three-year hiatus, the wheels (and the chairlifts) are spinning again this summer MIKE DAVIES CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
T
he chairlifts at Mount Washington – known for taking skiers and snowboarders up the side of the mountain to enjoy some of the best winter conditions anywhere in North America – will be spinning this summer taking bikes and riders up to enjoy the fruits of Mike Manara and his team’s recent hard work. Manara is the resort’s Snow School Director in the winter, but he is also in charge of the resort’s Mountain Biking Operations – responsible for the design, construction and rebuild of the mountain biking trail system on the mountain – and he is very much looking forward to showing it off to the riding public after a three-year hiatus of their mountain biking program. “The decision to reintroduce the Bike Park wasn’t taken lightly,” says Don Sharpe, director of business operations at the resort. “Our new owners are committed to a successful long-term plan for summer development, so they wanted to make sure that whatever we did was sustainable. We have all been working on bringing mountain
biking back to Mount Washington since last November.” And back it will be. Manara and his team have been researching, repairing and building for months now, traveling to some of the best downhill facilities in North America for ideas and advice. Manara was recently afforded the chance to spend three days riding in Park City, Utah, for example, at one of only five International Mountain Biking Association (IMBA) Gold Level facilities in the world. “When you go to a place like that with such a variety of top-quality riding, you can’t help but be inspired to bring back great ideas we can use here,” Manara says. It’ll help that there’s money being put into the project. Mount Washington is planning for an estimated $250,000 to be invested in the park this summer with ongoing enhancements coming every year thereafter. The first phase – of three – of the bike park rebuild was focused on the park entrance at the Hawk Chair. The team started that section with a series of berms that Manara says “will be fun for every skill level.” Additionally, Manara says, the mountain’s eas-

iest trail, “Green Line,” (also Vancouver Island’s longest uninterrupted mountain bike descent, according to Mount Washington), has also been reworked, as has the more demanding “Back in Black.” Phase two of the rebuild will entail connecting a number of the old trails into one new line to create the park’s first intermediate run, called “Hot Wheels.” Phase three will see the top sections of the mountain addressed, along with a rebuild of the park’s scenic 10 km cross-country bike loop, “The Finger Trail,” which can be ridden from the base area without taking a chairlift.
It’s not like they don’t know what the park needs. Manara and his

crew are all avid riders themselves, and have many, many years
of experience doing exactly this. “It’s important that
the people building the trails understand the flow and style that makes the experience great for the rider,” Manara says. Mount Washington’s general manager, Peter Gibson, says they are “thrilled to be back in the bike business. “The amount of work the crew has put in is astounding, and it shows in the quality of the trails that are ready to ride.” The bike park is be open seven days a week from 11:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., except for Thursdays when the park will remain open until 7 p.m. to give people a chance to get up there for a few hours after work. Day passes for the park are $45 or $29 for children under 12. Evening passes are $20 or $10 for children after 4 p.m.

GOLF Weekly
A fun new game I invented Mike Davies
Recently, I was trying to figure out a way for my usual foursome to have a bit more fun out on the golf course. The last time we went out I suggested a closest-to-the-pin challenge for a few dollars per hole on each of the par-3s – to which I was promptly shot down. I can only assume the others didn’t want to put money on it because I’m really, really good at golf and would surely win every challenge. I was probably only suggesting the idea so that I could get them to pay my Hydro bill. (That was sarcasm, by the way)

Well, whatever the reason they didn’t want to lay their money on the line, I was left still trying to figure out a way to spice up our upcoming round. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not that our normal rounds aren’t fun…I just wanted to add a twist to see if it could be even MORE fun. So I suggested the following: “What if whoever wins the hole gets to pick the club everyone has to use on the next hole?” I don’t even know where the idea came from, but it clearly needed fleshing out, because nobody knew what the heck I meant. Neither did I, really.

“So, would we have to use that club for the entire whole, or just the tee shot?” started to come the questions. “What if two people tie for the best score? Who picks?”

until the end of July 2016 (*Min 4 people.)
Meals available 7 days a week at the restaurant.
It actually worked out quite well. We agreed that it should only be the tee shot that is affected, and after that everyone could pick the appropriate club for each subsequent shot. It would be pretty frustrating to putt with a 9-iron, after all, or pitch with a driver. We also agreed that we’d just let one of the people who shot the best score on the previous hole do the picking, and just decide that on the fly if there was a tie. No need to overcomplicate things when you’re intentionally complicating an already complicated game, right? Let me tell you, there’s nothing quite like having to play a 125-yard par 3 with a 5-wood or being told you have to play “your highest-lofted wedge” off the teebox on a long par-4 to make the game a little more interesting. Give it a try sometime. Make up your own friendly game with your playing partners if you don’t like this one. It turns out it’s fun to take the game in a little different direction sometimes, rather than just worry about how many tries it takes you to get that stupid little ball in that stupid little hole and then writing that number down. Because, golf isn’t a hard enough game, right? (Yes, that was sarcasm again.)

Tyees take Island tadpole title
Blue Tyees of the Tadpole Division represented Campbell River well July 15-17 by winning the Vancouver Island Title in baseball for 8-9 year olds. The final tournament was hosted in Sidney by the Peninsula Baseball Association. After months of practise the team bonded to play dominantly in the final title tournament of the year going 3-1 in the round robin. The only loss came at the hands of Carnarvon Cannons (Oak Bay) who turned a double play with bases loaded in the bottom of the last inning to win by one run. Undeterred, Campbell River made the semi-finals Sunday and with dominant pitching performances by Aiden Hoffman and Ethan Crowhurst, beat the Triangle Rangers 11-3 to set-up a rematch for first place with the Carnarvon Cannons. With Brandin Cronin injured in the semi-final game the team rallied together to win the last one for Brandin; this time with excellent pitching by Hunter Auramenko and Caelan Tuck. Carnarvon was losing 11-10 with two outs in the top of final inning but had runners at second and third. A hard grounder was played well by Ryder Lipkovitis, who filled in for the injured Brandin, to throw the runner out at first putting Campbell River back on the map as the best ball club on the island. “This was a true team win with every single team member contributing over the course of the weekend,” said coach Basso. 7 out of 13 players hit homeruns not to mention the spectacular defensive play this team had. Campbell River will be looking to defend it’s title next year so come out and register next spring.

For those of us that live in Campbell River, we get exposed to the fishing culture and we sometimes take it for granted as we watch the boats go out on a daily basis.
Power & Marine
Jim Barraclough and Larry the cable guy had good success fishing for halibut in the Sayward area, this year a lot more attention has been focused on hali and lings. The Green can has seen lots of action for springs as large herring have been seen on the sonar as thick as 100 feet and fishing under the bait using plugs and spoons has been productive. Early morning the bait is closer to the surface and in shallower water.

There are many people that visit Campbell River for the first time and venture out in search of recreational activities that may include fishing.

Campbell River among lowest in B.C. for unacceptable material in curbside recycling
Campbell River residents were among the lowest of the low when it came to the amount of unacceptable material in blue bin recycling boxes last year, the city says. This makes our community’s curbside recycling program among the very best and most efficient in the province, according to a city press release. Data released by MultiMaterial BC earlier this year confirms that the amount of unacceptable material in Campbell River’s single-stream recycling mix was 3.9 per cent. “The numbers show that Campbell River residents are better at
recycling than most. Compared to other single-stream recycling programs, which allow residents to put paper and container recyclables together rather than separating them into two or more bins, Campbell River has been doing a great job of keeping unacceptable materials out of the system. Most programs in B.C. aren’t close to the low levels achieved in Campbell River, and some are a long way off,” says Ed Walsh, Vice President of British Columbia operations for Emterra Environmental, the company that collects garbage, recycling and yard waste curbside in Campbell
River. “The excellence of Campbell River’s recycling program starts before the recyclable materials even get to the curb, through a team effort to give residents the information they need to make good recycling decisions based on what’s accepted in the blue bin,” says Drew Hadfield, who manages transportation and solid waste for the city. “If unaccepted materials are left at the curb, Emterra’s collection crews tag the bins with an information sticker that explains why those items were left behind. “This timely, direct feedback to residents
helps everyone work together to get the right items in the curbside recycling stream. Also, the Comox Strathcona waste management service enhances and reinforces public education on recycling through programs aimed to increase diversion from the landfill.” Campbell River can further reduce the amount of unacceptable materials in curbside recycling stream by placing recyclables loosely in the bins – not tied up in plastic bags or stuffed together – and by ensuring there is no food or liquid residue on any containers. Also, garbage, diapers,
kitchen scraps, hoses, propane cylinders, garden tools and patio furniture shouldn’t go into recycling bins, nor should hard and soft cover books, scrap metal or products like rubber totes, kids toys or holiday lights. “With a waste diversion rate through recycling of 54 per cent, Campbell River’s record is very good compared against other singlestream programs. That’s significant because our goal is to extend the use

didn’t have kids until I was in my forties, but I remember back in my late twenties and early thirties riding with buddies who had families. We always had to ride early so they could “get on with their day.” I often wondered what that meant, all I had to do that day was ride, so what was with the 7 a.m. start? It was still great riding and we had a blast, but when the ride ended at 9 a.m., I would generally do another shuttle lap or two before heading home to have a nap. I also remember seeing buddies regularly while I was out mountain biking and they were doing a casual ride with their kids. I always felt so bad for them, having to give up their own rides for the sake of the family. Well, how times change. I still love to get out for rides with my buddies and I enjoy a

no excuse for waiting that long. Be sure to try some fine British Columbia wines to celebrate BC Day. Devilishly good wines are the specialty of Diabolica Wines. Diabolica White (820647) $12.05 is a premium blend of aromatic Viognier and Riesling with Pinot Blanc and Pinot Gris filling out the palate. Diabolica Red (71142) $12.05 combines Merlot, Petit Verdot, Shiraz and Cabernet for a mouthful of cherry and pomegranate flavours that slide into blueberries, boysenberries and plums. At the heart of the festival are the International Festival Tastings at the Vancouver Convention Centre, where 700-750+ wines are available for sampling, with an additional 150160 wines available at trade tastings. Ramp up your BC wine experience with a couple of wines from Syncromesh Wines - a small, family run operation focused on producing terroir-driven, world class Riesling, Pinot Noir and Cabernet Franc. They practice sustainable techniques, using no-chemical farming, natural low cropping, extensive and hands-off employment of indigenous yeasts. A blend of grapes from the Naramata Bench and Okanagan
Falls, Syncromesh Riesling (850115) $17.05 has aromas of lemon zest, ripe apricot and apple skin with crab apple, candied lemon and green mango flavours seducing the taste buds in a honeyed off-dry style. Syncromesh Turtle Rock Farms Tertre Rouge (239103) $36.35 is unfined and unfiltered. A blend of 50 per cent Cabernet Franc and 50 per cent Merlot. This is a single vineyard wine from Turtle Rock Farms. Powerful dark cherry, strawberry, dusky plum and blackberry aromas with white pepper and sagebrush. There’s an earthy authenticity to this marvellous unapologetically unfiltered red. Plan now to take advantage of the line-up of public events at next year’s VIWF, International Festival Tastings on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings and Saturday afternoon. The list goes on and on… wine seminars and minglers highlighting trends, wineries and wine styles and the ever-popular Vintners Brunch on Sunday, which includes a chefs’ food and wine pairing competition. Taste wines from the Okanagan Valley’s highest vineyards – Don Triggs’ Culmina Family Estate Winery! This elegant operation is the result of a lifetime of
experience in the wine industry for Don, Elaine and Sara Triggs. Having worked in the industry for a combined 40+ years, Don and Elaine began in 2006 with a simple goal: to make the highest quality wines possible from their own family estate. Hypothesis is Culmina’s Bordeaux styled blend. Culmina’s Saignée (447946) is a bright rosé from select varietal micro blocks on the Triggs’ family estate. Subtle mint, herb, cantaloupe, and mineral aromas coalesce with nuanced, savoury strawberry fruit to form a classically-styled rosé. A blend of 57 per cent Merlot, 24 per cent Cabernet Sauvignon and 19 per cent Cabernet Franc aged 16 months in French oak, Culmina Hypothesis 2012 (462606) $44.90 was clearly modelled on high-class red Bordeaux. Lots of plum and black currant, sage, soy and molasses flavours add up to a standout specialty red. There’s no need to wait until February to indulge in the find BC wines that will be poured at the 39th annual Vancouver International Wine Festival. Start your wine adventure this BC Day weekend!

ubrey Burke is almost ready to tell us about ourselves. Burke, a Victoriabased artist, has been in town for almost a year on a grant through the Canada Council for the Arts, listening to the stories of the community, and throughout August and September, he’ll be sharing those stories back to us. “I’ve been quite busy,” Burke says with an infectious smile. “I’ve been recording people’s stories and just being out in the community here in Campbell River, over on Quadra and even over on Cortes. It’s been great.” Going into the project, he didn’t know what to expect – either of the town or how the project would come together. But the project, much like the town, Burke says, “has been pretty expansive in how it has found itself.” While talking to the community, he says, the project began to take shape in his mind. He wanted the final product to come together organically, so to speak. He wanted the community to tell him, through their stories, how to best tell those stories. “It’s been interesting, because there’s so much to capture,” he says. “While it’s impossible to grab everything, it’s been exciting to try and take a

snapshot as an outsider dropping into a community and exploring what it feels about itself, in a way.” So how does Campbell River feel about itself? “I kind of had this preconceived notion of a hard-working town with maybe not really a lot going on, and I’ve been presently surprised. It’s been a beautiful experience to see how much the people here care about this place,” he says, looking back on his year. “People here are, by and large, extremely satisfied with their place in the world. People talk about the untapped gem that it is and how people don’t really know about
• GIFT WARE
it, and they really take pride in that.” And now it’s time to celebrate that pride the community has in itself by disseminating the work he’s been doing. He will use some unused “community spaces” to project his findings – mainly empty storefronts in the downtown core – throughout August and September. “We’ve been taking a lot of portraits of the people we’ve been speaking to and the people around the city and we’re going to project those along with quotes about how people feel about it here, and their stories about this place.” The idea, Burke says, is
to have people stumble across the projections by accident. “Part of the joy of producing art like this is to surprise people. It’s kind of designed to be a series of things that people can stumble upon by accident and go ‘whoa. What is this?’ and then learn something about themselves or be intrigued and encouraged to be introspective in a way they might not otherwise be spurred to be. You’ll be able to walk around the downtown of the city at night and see it lit up with this ephemera of the collective face and voice of Campbell River,” he says. Burke says he’s also
still looking for youth involvement in a video production aspect of the project, as well. He’s looking for people between six and 26 years of age who want to make short, three to six minute videos to show during September as part of the project. He’s got gift certificates to give away to those who get involved, as well, as an incentive for participation. For more information about how to be involved, or if you just want to know more about the project, contact Burke at storyboothproject@gmail.com, text or call 250-504-0076 or go online and check out storyboothproject.info

How to determine if items can be composted
Compost is an eco-friendly way to grow a healthy and flourishing garden bed or landscape. Full of nutrients and rich organic materials, compost is often called "black gold" by gardeners for the many benefits it provides. One of the main advantages to compost, apart from the way it boosts plant growth and health, is that it is relatively low cost to produce. Compost is created by food scraps and other materials that are left to break down naturally. Backyard composting speeds up the natural process of decomposition. In optimal conditions, organic matter can decompose more quickly. According to the University of Illinois Extension, microorganisms like bacteria, fungi and actinomycetes account for most of the decomposition that takes place in a compost pile. However, insects also can do their part to create compost. Such insects are referred to as "physical composters" because they break down materials by chewing, grinding and digesting them into smaller pieces. Bacteria create an oxidation process that heats up the compost pile and aids in its decomposition. Homeowners can create their own compost piles with just a few items. Some of the staples of composting include foods that normally would be discarded. Vegetable peels, fruit rinds, eggshells, coffee grounds, and the like can be put into a compost pile. Meats and poultry should not be placed in a compost pile because of the threat of harmful pathogens and bacteria. Other items that are not food-related also can be added to compost piles. It may be challenging to determine which ones are applicable. These products are usually considered safe:
· paper plates with no coating · products made from bagasse, a fibrous matter that remains after sugarcane or sorghum stalks are crushed · cardboard boxes · paper towels · wax paper · wax-covered paper cups · products certified as compostable by BPI · certified bio-plastics Anything that is coated in plastic that is not a bio-plastic must go into the trash or be reused in another way. Composting is a cost-effective, viable way to reduce trash and produce a beneficial product for gardening and landscaping.

any times, when women in crisis arrive at the Ann Elmore Transition House, they have little more than the clothes on their backs. One of the obvious needs the ladies have is undergarments such as bras, new panties, sleepwear and robes. Stevie Turley, owner of La Tee Da Lingerie Boutique is once again stepping up to help. The local business owner is appealing to the women of Campbell River and area to have a look in their dressers and closets to find any gently used undergarments and sleepwear which can be donated. This year, Turley and her staff will be stepping up even more to help by holding a bra fit clinic for residents of both Ann Elmore and Rose Harbour Houses. “When I had a discussion with staff at the Transition House this time last year, I was saddened to hear that they pretty much had no clothing, particularly undergarments, on the shelf to help their clients,” said Turley. “At La Tee Da Lingerie Boutique, we have always maintained that supporting women is our business, so it seemed natural to team up with the Campbell River and North Island Transition Society to do something to help the women who access their services. “When we put the appeal out to the community last year, the response was overwhelming. We collected enough undergarments to fill 16 very large shopping bags. That response was heartwarming. And we are hoping to exceed that achievement this year. We also felt that simply collecting undergarments for women in need was not enough. We have been helping our customers find their perfect fitting bra for almost 10 years. Now it is time to help women in crisis with the same service. We are very excited to be offering the bra fit clinic for the first time this year.” La Tee Da has been supporting the Ann Elmore Transition House for years with their gift wrapping by donation program.

Campbellton Day! Enns has long history in Campbellton area Ken Enns, a life-long resident of Campbellton, has seen a lot of changes since his family moved to Campbell River and now in retirement he is focussing on his camera work to help preserve the great outdoors.
the Enns family, who had been close neighbours in Armstrong, B.C., and in 1964 Ken’s parents, Ed and Loraine Enns, converted the building into a sporting goods outdoor store, now the iconic River Sportsman.
His family history in the area began in July 1945 when his grandfather Les Hoover Sr. settled on the banks of the Campbell River at the then-wood bridge and built the family’s original store there in 1946, called Campbell River Woodworkers, a building supplies business.
“We are proud to be a part of Campbellton, and the second-longestrunning family-owned business in Campbell River,” says Enns, who retired from the business in October, 2013 after 36 years there but remains a co-owner.
The Hoovers were joined in 1949 by
“My mother moved to this property one month prior to her second birthday and
now she has celebrated over 70 years on our proud family property,” he says, noting his brother and sister-in-law also own a home across the river from the historic Haig-Brown House.
the Campbellton Association.
Neighbourhood
“I feel so fortunate to have lived my whole life in a third-generation house on the banks of the Campbell, now a B.C. Heritage River, and I want to give back to our watershed,” he says. To do so Enns formed Shared Waters Photography with the slogans “We Share This Land Together ... With Nature” and “Promoting a Naturally Beautiful Life… Through Creative Eyes” and he and others worked on “daylighting” the east branch of Kingfisher Creek and joining it to the west branch, thus improving its capacity for bearing fish. Also in 2013 Enns commissioned local chainsaw carver Max Chickite to do a lifesize statue of renowned conservationist Roderick Haig-Brown, who also had a vision for restoring Kingfisher Creek, which runs through the Haig-Brown property and a small park nearby named in Haig-Brown’s honour. More recently Enns has shifted his focus onto writing a family book called “Shared Waters” (Life is a Journey) but he continues to be an activist, including helping to found and support

Campbellton Day! OSTLER REMAINS ACTIVE IN CAMPBELLTON ISSUES Morgan Scott Ostler arrived in Campbell River more than 50 years ago and she has been making a positive difference in the community ever since, including helping to found the Campbellton Neighbourhood Association about four years ago.

Campbell River of rejuvenating the old Campbellton neighbourhood, which so far has included the successful construction of a community garden on 15th Avenue off of Petersen Road, as well as improving safety for pedestrians, and reducing trash and graffiti.
Initially Ostler came from Victoria in 1964 as the wife of a journalist and a mother of two but then she became a single mother and a reporter for The Islander, a local newspaper, and soon became an award-winning editor of The Islander, which later merged with the Courier. After retiring from City Council she wrote a regular column on food and garden issues for the Mirror until 2015.
One of her top priorities is improving public access to the Campbell River shores and estuary, which she describes as stunningly beautiful, but she also is advancing the importance to
She is also presently researching material on historical events in the community. An interview of Ostler on local television can be viewed via www.shaw.ca/ ShawTV/Comox/Shows/goisland.
Ostler remarried to Robert Ostler, a notable mayor of Campbell River, and during his terms she took a year out to study political science and English at the University of Victoria. Following the death of her husband, Ostler became politically active in environmental and other issues and served two terms on Campbell River council, from 2002 to 2008. She has been especially active in protecting river and ocean waterfronts, and removing broom (an invasive species) by forming a local branch of the Island-wide Broombusters Society which has since removed almost all broom from within municipal
boundaries. In 1994 she was named Citizen of the Year in Campbell River and in 2012 she was honoured with the Environmental Action and Leadership Award. In April this year she was honoured

Former Campbell River student Artists explore race and culture returns with one-woman show A new exhibition at the Campbell River Art Gallery that explores race and visual culture opened last night and will continue throughout August. The exhibition, Aja’sit, by artists Amy Malbeuf and Jordan Bennett, will continue at the Gallery until Sept. 1. Aja’sit, which means s/he is moving, presents the two artists’ current works and how their practices overlap and challenge each other through the exploration of mobility and notions of place. Malbeuf is a Métis visual artist from Rich Lake, Alta., who utilizes caribou hair tufting, beadwork and performance to examine relationships between humanity and nature, as well as race and culture. Malbeuf has exhibited her work

Do you listen to the cogs that whir in your head, or the song that flutters in your chest? Teetering on the brink of absolute failure, lovesick Bobert discovers his heart to be more than he knew. Intrigued? Then check out Ideas Bobert, a whimsical brew of physical comedy and conundrum. This multi-media, interdisciplinary show by award-winning creator and former Campbell Riverite Candy Roberts is “Ginger Rogers meets Mr. Bean,” and dances with the absurd. Roberts grew up right here in Campbell River, dancing at Danette’s School of Dance, but has now relocated to Vancouver and dances her way through life as a community arts facilitator, teacher and performer. This past year she received a Mayor’s Arts Award in Vancouver as an “Emerging Community Engaged Artist” for her work in community development through creativity and the arts. She is also a founding member of the community that makes up The Dusty Flowerpot Cabaret, which was named one of “Vancouver’s Best Kept Secrets,” by the CBC.
Candice (Candy) Roberts will return to her old stomping grounds of Campbell River tomorrow night with Ideas Bobert, her new onewoman show.
“This is my first solo show and features my passions and skills in tap dancing, clowning, puppetry and some stop-motion animation projections,” Roberts says. The show will debut in Campbell River at Solstice Studio (151 Dogwood St.) tomorrow night (Saturday, July 30) before heading down Island to the Victoria Fringe Festival. It will also be featured at the Vancouver Puppet Festival and Edmonton’s Clown Festival later this year. Tickets for the 7 p.m. Soltice Studio show are available at the door on a sliding scale from $10 to $20. For more information, visit curlypawscandice.com

Get ready for Chalkfest with workshop Learn to make chalk art drawings from a professional at an Aug. 10 workshop – then put those skills to the test during Campbell River’s Chalkfest competition that evening. “In preparation for the CR Live Streets Chalkfest event the evening of Aug. 10, the city’s recreation department is offering a chalk art workshop earlier that same day,” says recreation program coordinator Linda Nagle. “Instructor Ian Morris has been a professional sidewalk chalk painter for more than 12 years, and participants will be able to use these skills to take part in the downtown competition, or to do fun projects at home, like decorating the driveway.” During Chalkfest, Shoppers Row sidewalks and street pavement will become an artistic canvas from 5 to 8 p.m., featuring works by a professional chalk artist and a public competition with great prizes. Pick up supper or snacks from the many food carts on site; watch the artistic action or create your own masterpiece on the asphalt. The chalk art workshop runs at the Community Centre from 10 a.m. to noon on Aug. 10, open to people 12 years or older. Cost is $5 per person or $10 per family, and chalk pastels are supplied. Registration deadline is Aug. 3. CR Live Streets is a series of three Wednesday evening activities, CAMPBELL FIRST ISSUE 1971

THE HISTORY OF THE CAMPBELL RIVER AREA
Fred Nunns: An early Campbell River pioneer ERIKA ANDERSON MUSEUM AT CAMPBELL RIVER
Many children in Campbell River will recognize the name of one of Campbell River’s earliest pioneers, despite the fact that he died 93 years ago. They have played baseball, watched the annual logger sports or enjoyed the playground in the park that bears his name. Or perhaps they have heard some of the more amusing tales from his life that have been preserved through the Museum’s Puppet Theatre. Either way, this somewhat somber man, who kept a diary of his day-to-day life for many of his years in Campbell River, has a name that keeps creating positive associations in the community, especially among young people. Frederick Nunns and his brother Jack arrived from Ireland in 1887 intent on starting a farm. They came from a big family and had hopes of more siblings joining them in settling this remote land. Some of their siblings visited but decided not to stay, then Jack left for the United States, leaving Fred to live alone as one of the very few European settlers in the Campbell River area. The Nunnses pre-empted hundreds of acres about a mile up from the mouth of the Campbell River. Fred was known to be a welleducated and well-travelled man. Irish by birth, he was educated in England and then spent time in South Africa serving as a Cape Mounted Police before making his way

to Canada. When describing him, other residents of Campbell River say he was “kind, quiet” and “an interesting old gentleman, but rather a recluse.” Mr. Harold Campbell, the first teacher to arrive in Campbell River, boarded with Fred Nunns for a short time. He remembered Nunns’ peculiar morning routine. “Every day in the year so I was told,

and I know it was true in September and October, Nunns got up in the morning and lit the kitchen range, and then he would, while he still had his pyjamas on, put his straw hat on his head and walk down to the river. There was a little cul de sac where he waded out to the waist and ducked his head in the river. Then he stepped out, put his hat back on and

walked back to the house. He took his pyjamas off and hung them behind the stove. They never needed washing and they would be dry by the night time.” We know a lot about Nunns’ life thanks to the diary he kept. Journal entries are often short and to the point. “Wednesday Oct. 15 (1890): Rained hard all last night and today.” Or
perhaps the more descriptive entry: “Friday Feb. 12 (1892): Fine. Put in almost 40 lbs. potatoes and transplanted some strawberries. My black sow farrowed, had 12. Went down to Hill’s in evening, had tea, swapped a bed for a forequarter of beef, returned home 8:30 p.m.” The weather is a reoccurring theme in his diary. Another theme that we see constantly in his diary is the interactions with neighbours and other people who lived in the area. It is clear that his life is fairly lonely, however these interactions seem to be a highlight of his days. In the harsh living conditions of the time, the members of his social circle clearly rely on each other to help make life easier. There seems to be a constant readiness to offer a warm meal, or shelter for the night to a weary traveler. Fred Nunns’ life ended abruptly in 1923 when he collapsed after having six painful teeth removed. It was suspected that he had received an overdose of novocaine which caused his early demise. Copies of his journal are available to read at the Museum’s Archives Research Centre. The stories have been used to create several of the Museum’s puppet shows, with titles such as Fred Goes to Comox, Fred Nunns’ Pumpkins, Fred Nunns and the Willows Hotel, and Fred and the Salty Cake. The first two of these plays were the first two ever written for the Museum’s Puppet Theatre and have been performed for the past 30 years.

DEATHS
ROLLINS – Rhenault Albert
night
1923 – 2016 Born on November 3, 1923 in Merritt, BC and died peacefully surrounded by his family at North Vancouver’s Lions Gate Hospital on July 6, 2016. He is predeceased by Margaret, his loving wife of nearly 70 years, and survived by his children Dan (Deb) Rollins, Brenda (Mark) Spilker, Sharon (Dan) Muzzin, eight grandchildren, and four great-grandchildren. Al retired after a respected career as a Steam Engineer in Ocean Falls and Campbell River, and valuable contributions to the development of boiler safety standards in BC, and to the Campbell River School Board. He and Margaret enjoyed many world travels before settling in Kelowna and more recently in West Vancouver. Al valued education and hard work, enjoyed discussing current events, and took great pleasure in observing the natural world (birds and marine life were particular favourites). He enjoyed deciphering the inner workings of machines and could repair everything from cars and watches to an antique cuckoo clock. He had a keen interest in boats, building his first one when he was 14, and later took his family on many boating adventures through the waters of the Pacific, from Alaska to the US Gulf Islands. Al will be remembered as a quiet, independent and intelligent man with a wry sense of humour, a remarkable memory for details, and as a much loved father, grandfather, and great-grandfather.

Aquaculture activists enlist Sea Shepherd Society’s help in campaign Sea Shepherd, a worldfamous environmental organization, has arrived in BC waters. One of it’s ships, the RV Martin Sheen, left Vancouver on July 19th to sail northward into the plethora of salmon farms that populate the province’s coast, many on the routes of migrating wild salmon. On board is biologist Alexandra Morton who confessed the environmental group’s usual tactics were outside her comfort zone. But, unlike the radical actions used by Sea Shepherd to halt illegal whaling in southern
oceans, this is essentially a scientific expedition — “Operation Virus Hunter”. The founder of Sea Shepherd, Paul Watson, explained its presence here. “It is very satisfying to me to send one of our vessels to my home province of British Columbia, to address one of the most insidious threats to biodiversity on the West Coast — salmon farms. Our mission is to investigate, document and expose an industry that is spreading disease, parasites and destroying the natural habitat of our wild salmon — the
coho, the sockeye and the chinook. [Their] exotic Atlantic salmon simply do not belong in these waters.” (Island Tides, July 28/16). Sea Shepherd’s presence here is highly symbolic, an unmistakable signal that an internationally-recognized environmental organization, known for functioning with a passionate dedication to principle, has declared that BC’s salmon farming industry is a major threat to the marine ecology of the region.
The industry, of course, thinks otherwise. But, ecologically, the open net-pens where they rear their fish couldn’t be located in a worse place. T h e We s t Coast is a wilderness paradise, teeming with nature’s bounty of animals, fish and forests. Here, wild salmon are a keystone species, the life-blood that pulses through the ocean, rivers and streams to nourish orcas, bears, birds, insects, trees and people.
The open net-pens of the salmon farms, distribution centres for feces, parasites and diseases, are in fundamental conflict with the health of this wild ecology. The history of this conflict began with wildlife such as orcas, seals, sea-lions, otters, eagles, herons, and anything unfenced that liked to eat fish. Then it expanded to wild salmon when sea lice, flourishing in densely packed net-pens of farmed fish, became incubation sites for the parasites to spread, en masse, to maim and kill millions of hapless
migrating wild smolts. Viral diseases followed, the latest in a series being the ubiquitous piscine reovirus, the causative infection for the debilitating condition of heart and skeletal muscle inflammation. The successive and cumulative effects of all these farm-based impacts continue to jeopardize the health of wild salmon and impair their crucial role in supporting the West Coast’s entire marine ecosystem. As in Norway, where the lice are becoming resistant to pesticides and the viruses are also out of control, the lon-
ger fish farms remain in BC’s open net-pens, the worse the ecological consequences will be. This is what has attracted the attention of Sea Shepherd. It volunteers its ships where the environmental threat is imminent and serious. The sheep it is protecting are the wildlife of the world’s oceans, and its message to those who offend the integrity of nature is in the shepherd’s crook and Neptune’s triton crossed beneath a skull. The mission to British Columbia is unambiguous. And it will be profiled around the world.

Move to C.R. was well worth the risk KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
T
wenty-three years ago Jonathan Shead was looking for a change. Growing up in South Africa, times were hard and Shead was looking for something better for himself and his young family. “We were dairy farmers in South Africa and we wanted a change,” Shead says. So he cast his eyes toward B.C., where Shead’s wife, Robyn, had family, hoping for a better life. Shead and his wife started to seek out business opportunities and four or five months into exploring, Mr. Mike’s came knocking. Shead started the restaurant in behind Tyee Plaza – where the Java Shack is today – despite limited experience in the restaurant business. He and his wife, Robyn, owned the restaurant for five years until the opportunity arose to try something

new. “We thought there was an opening in the town for a mixed sporting footwear and apparel store so we searched for
a franchise that would support us,” Shead says. The Sheads opened the doors to Intersport in August, 1999, just three doors down from
its current location in Tyee Plaza. The move expanded the store from 5,000 square feet to double that size and allowed
Intersport to grow its inventory. An inventory that includes a wide selection of outdoor wear, fitness clothing, fashion wear, footwear and aisles of sports equip-
ment. The Campbell River store is the only Intersport franchisee on the Island, and is a shining example to other stores within the chain. Shead’s store was honoured with Intersport’s Franchisee of the Year award for 2015, which he attributes to the store’s growth in sales, glowing customer reviews, and inspection ratings. “It was a surprise, but we’re very happy – and that’s a reflection on the staff,” Shead says of the award. “Definitely the success of the store is the staff.” Intersport employs 15 full and part-time staff who Shead says “work hard” and “stay a long time,” including those who have gone off to university but come home to work at Intersport during the summer. It’s no different with the store’s permanent full-time staff. Manager Neil Ogg has been with Intersport for more than 16 years, while Assistant Manager Buyer Candice Prokopchuk has been with the
store for 14 years. The other full-time staff have all been employed by Intersport for at least seven or eight years, Shead says. The store’s success, he says, makes the risks he took all worthwhile. Packing up his two young girls, who at the time were seven and two-years-old, to move halfway across the world wasn’t easy, Shead says. “It was super stressful, but definitely worth it,” says Shead who has gone back to South Africa five or six times since then to see his brothers, sister, his mom and his in-laws. Though he hasn’t been back often, he hasn’t lost the language. “I’m fluent in English, Afrikaans and Zulu,” Shead says with a smile. “Which really isn’t a very big help unless you’re in South Africa.” Still, he’s happy with the path his life has taken him down, and he’s proud of his store’s success. “Our location is very good,” he says of Intersport. “For what we do, it’s very good.”
