Sprucing up BC Hydro boxes in Gold River The Gold River Futures Society in partnership with BC Hydro will “beautify” the Hydro boxes throughout Gold River. “Our community is a beautiful place to live as well as visit and having all our utility wires underground enhances the photographic options of the scenery of the village,” said Sheila Bugar, project supervisor. “Currently, we’re working on enhancing our green spaces and have an
ongoing streetscape program to further enhance the beauty of the village so residents and visitors of the community can take in the natural surroundings.” This contest is one part of this ongoing beautification project. “We will be starting with four or five large boxes that are central in the community and in need of much uplifting,” Bugar said. “We will be ‘wrapping’ these boxes which is a method in which we would take a

Express your love for Strathcona Park Lindsay Chung Black Press COURTENAY — The Friends of Strathcona Park are inviting people to experience exactly what they love about the park during a free day-long festival. Day hikes, kayaking, massage and First Nations storytelling are just a few of the free, low-impact activities planned for the Strathcona Wilderness Festival, which takes place Aug. 20 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at Buttle Lake. The festival is being described as a “hands-on day of fun and celebration where people who love Strathcona Park come together to share their knowledge and support for their beautiful park.” “Karl Stevenson had a dream; that’s why the event is
happening,” explained Carol Hunter, a Friends of Strathcona Park board member. “He dreamed of a place where people could come together, experience the park, learn about the park and show support for the park.” Stevenson, who is also a Friends board member, has been hiking in Strathcona Park since his father first took him there when he was seven, and he hopes that when people experience all Strathcona Park has to offer, they will want to support and protect the park. “Over the years, I’ve watched it get trashed for money by various governments — logging, mining, basically everything,” he said. “In 1988, the government dumped an area completely from the park and turned another area

part removed, we got the Strathcona Park Master Plan, and also, we got created the Strathcona Park Public Advisory Committee. “The idea of all those things was really that we hoped they were protective devices for the park,” Stevenson added. “The blockade wasn’t a lot of fun, and we didn’t want to do another one, so we hoped those things would help with that. “Recently, the government trashed that master plan to allow a commercial operation to obtain a
permit to run a highimpact commercial operation in the park,” he continued. “My hope is somehow or other, we can convince the government to restore the master plan and not turn the park into a commercial enterprise. I’m hoping if we get enough people to come out and show they support the park, with an election coming up, perhaps the government might be in the mood to take notice.” But the Strathcona Wilderness Festival is not just about politics

— it is also about learning about and experiencing the park, which is celebrating its centennial this year. “The other thing about this is the people who attend this event don’t have to have anything to do with the political aspects,” said Stevenson. “We’re hoping to provide a day where people can enjoy the park, learn about the park and have fun.” All the free events planned for the day are minimal- to noimpact activities that can be done in the park, including day hikes, nature walks and talks, kayaking, canoeing, children’s activities, photography walks, geocaching, seminars on back-
country camping, trail running, cycling, rock climbing, Tai Chi, yoga, massage, First Nations storytelling with Wedlidi Speck, art with Clive Powsey and much more. “They’re being offered by organizations and businesses and individuals in the community who have volunteered to offer their time,” said Hunter. “It’s been amazing. What started as something that was a small idea with nature walks ... it’s just exploded so huge from all these people who love the park or love the minimal and no-impact activities they’re involved in and want to teach them to people. It’s just been absolutely incredible the response we’ve had.” The festival is focused around the Price Creek trailhead at the south end of Buttle Lake. The Strathcona Wilderness Festival is a leave-no-trace event, and people are asked to bring their own lunch and whatever they need, as the only amenities will be outhouses and water. Free busing can be arranged from Courtenay and Campbell River by advanced reservation through www. friendsofstrathcona. org.

I read in the Globe and Mail on Aug. 5, an interesting article on the superbug Clostridium difficile. The article written by Dr. Khursheed Jeejeebhoy MD and Dr. Pierre-Jean Maziade MD, speaks to recent research that Pierre-Le Gardeur Hospital, outside Montreal, is doing to prevent further spread of C. difficile. It started using a probiotic as standard and preventive therapy in all patients receiving antibiotics and, to date, 35,000 patients over five years have received this therapy. C. difficile infections were reduced by 75 per cent and C. difficile-
related mortality declined by 91 per cent. This hospital has the lowest incidence of C. difficile in a hospital environment in Canada. Another study, published in the American Journal of Gastroenterology in 2010, demonstrated that C. difficile associated diarrhea can be reduced by 95 per cent versus placebo in at-risk patients using the Canadian probiotic Bio-K+. The key probiotics in Bio-K+ are L. acidophilus CL1285 and L. casei LBC80R. Up to 20-40 per cent of patients recently hospitalized are carriers for C.difficile and almost one in four patients treated with antibiotics
