JHGS blastingto begin in July

NEIL CAMERON COURIER-ISLANDER

Blasting for the under-ground John Hart Generating Station will

begin in July, and city council okayed the main contractor to do so 24/7 Tuesday.

Project Manager Scott Mar-shall of Aecon SNC-Lava-lin Joint Venture (ASL-JV), explained to council that initial blasting wouldn’t be intrusive and subsequent blasting would go virtually unnoticed.

He said that once the major part of the blasting begins 100 metres underground, it would be hard to detect even if you were close to the site.

He said there would be one or two blasts per night and the blasting regime would last for two to three years.

He said the proximity of the existing generating sta-tion and penstocks means the blasting will require precision, something he says his company and their con-tractors have done on other projects.

Prior to Tuesday night the bylaw permitted blasting to occur between the hours of 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., Monday to Saturday, excluding any statu-tory holiday.

In a report to city council, city staff said they have reviewed the request “and have no concerns with permit-ting blasting 24/7 because, apart from the entrance and exit to the tunnel, all blasting will occur well underground and will not be heard, nor impact the surrounding area.”

Staff also said the company’s request for trucking the blast-ed rock from the John Hart site 24/7 also would not pose a problem.

There are expected to be six to eight dump trucks per hour utilizing Highways 28 and 19 exclusively and will be hauling the material to points north (Middle Point) and west (the gravel pit at 401 Farwell Road located off Willis Road), both of which are about one kilometre from the nearest residence.

Council okays 24/7 operation request


SIAN THOMSON COURIER-ISLANDER

Striking teachers are going to be hoping for more than just apples if the picket lines continue and the strike pay does not.

“With teachers not getting paid, and the union’s strike pay fund dried up after three days, some are facing financial hardship

and may be accessing the food bank for help,” said Elaine Thompson, President of the Campbell River and District Teachers’ Association.

Lack of strike pay is not new to striking teachers. “In 2005 the BC Teachers’ Federa-tion was not allowed to pay strike pay duringour illegal two week strike,” said Thompson.

“ We had three days on rotating strike, now we are at the sixth day of our full strike. Tomorrow is the first day of the two day secondary lockout, when other teachers will be on strike to stand in solidar-ity with them. Then Friday is a lockout for all teachers — except those who are compelled to submit marks under an Essential Services Order.

“The teachers who do this will be paid for their time,” she said. “In order to stand in solidarity with the rest of the teachers, we have asked them to donate this pay to a charity of their choice, such as the food bank.”

Thompson says they have sug-gested the donations go to the food bank as they are thinking some teachers might have to use the food bank.

“We just mentioned the food bank because if things get bad enough, some teachers may need to access it to make ends meet this month. But they may choose a dif-ferent charity,” she said.

Summer school is cancelled;teachers wear pink in protestSIAN THOMSON COURIER-ISLANDER

Struggling Campbell River students will get a longer break from

their studies than antici-pated with the announce-ment that BC teachers will be picketing summer school.

School District 72 announced Thursday that summer school has been cancelled.

They said for those parents/guardians who have paid a deposit for textbooks — cash deposits will be returned and/or cheques will be destroyed once school commences in September.

BCTF president Jim Ikerannounced Wednesday, that if no contract agree-ment is reached with gov-ernment by the end of the month, teachers will keep their strike activity going.

“If the government does not come forward with new funding to reach a fair settlement by June 30, teachers are prepared to extend the strike into summer and picket out summer school,” he said.

Iker said the decision about summer school was not taken lightly, but teachers have to take a stand against government

underfunding of the edu-cation system.

A group of teachers on the picket line at Ripple Rock Elementary School

on Wednesday were wear-ing pink shirts in their stand against govern-ment, saying that kids are an investment, not an expense, and they were wearing anti-bullying col-ours to protest against the “Liberal bullies”.

Teacher Lisa Johnsonsaid (before Iker’s press conference) that she had heard both parties were “getting together to talk about getting together” and had not heard any developments regarding summer school.

Summer school is avail-able in 26 of the 60 school districts in B.C. About 10 per cent of the province’s students enroll annually. An estimated 53,600 stu-dents are estimated to be planning to attend sum-mer school this year.

Summer School 2014 in Campbell River was scheduled from July 3 to July 30. They included summer music enrich-ment program at Timber-line Secondary School, plus Elementary, Middle and Secondary [email protected]

It was pink shirt day on the picket line outside Ripple Rock School on Wednesday as teaching staff used the anti-bullying symbol to stand up to the Liberal (government) bullies. It was announced later that day if a settlement is not reached by the end of June, teachers will be on the picket line all summer.

Food bank possible for someSend your letters to:[email protected]

Are you getting tired of cutting the grass and shoveling snow?

Are you uncomfortable lugging laundry baskets and groceries up and down stairs? Perhaps the thought of moving sounds good, but the thought of selling your home and moving to a smaller place overwhelms you. If so, you are not alone!

Making the decision to move to a smaller place is extremely difficult for many older adults. If you’ve lived in your home for several decades, then leaving it may feel like an enormous loss. If your children have moved on, it may feel like your house is all you have left. You may think that your house keeps you connected to those happy memories of years past.

But none of that matters if your house is no longer safe for you.

It is estimated that it takes a minimum of 80 hours to completely sort and pack an average home. This is an enormous task.

It will be easier if you break the tasks of downsiz-ing into small segments, which may begin with 15 minute sessions a couple of times throughout the day. The key is to take small steps, one drawer at a time, one box at a time. Share with your family and friends cherished items and heirlooms and take comfort in knowing that these possessions will be appreciated.

If the prospect of tackling this on your own is just too much, you can hire a relocation company.

When it comes to hiring a relocation specialist or moving yourself, deciding which is better is differ-ent for everyone. Usually the first factor is cost. But you must also factor in your time, the difficulty or complexity of the move, your ability, the distance, and who you have in your life to help you.

Is time an issue? Do you have people in your life to help you? Can you organize all the packing materi-als, utility transfer, moving truck? The headaches of packing and moving everything yourself can be hugely reduced by hiring a relocation service.

A relocation company can also work with your floor plans, to help you decide what will fit.

Anne Delaney is a Certified Relocation and Transi-tion Specialist and a Certified Professional Consultant on Aging and has the training and knowledge to help you through every step of your move.

FIREFIGHTING

The Coastal Fire Centre is one of six regional wild-

land fire centres oper-ated by the B.C. Forest Service’s Wildfire Management Branch. The Coastal Fire Centre covers all the area west of the height of land on the Coast Mountain range from the U.S./Canada border at Man-ning Park to the north-ern border of South Tweedsmuir Park, the lower mainland, the Sunshine Coast, all of Vancouver Island, the Gulf Islands and Haida Gwaii. This area encompasses two For-ests, Lands and Natural

Resource Operations regions: the South Coast Region and West Coast Region.

This area covers about 12.8 million hectares of land with extremely varied topography. Where the Pacific Ocean reaches the continent it meets a chain of islands running from north to south, with soaring mountains, inland plateaus and lowland valleys. Much of the Coastal Fire Centre terrain is steep and rug-ged with thick brush and large timber and large bodies of water which provide logistical challenges to resource movements.

Transportation often involves ferries, barges, commercial and con-tracted aircraft, as well as

resource road use. Air-craft are used extensively to get crews to inaccess-ible areas quickly.

New planes designed for precisionAircraft, crew stationed at Campbell River as dry weather hints at fi res to come across provinceKEN ZAHARIA COURIER-ISLANDER

Four strange looking ‘arriv-als’ are at the Campbell River airport.

No, they’re not passengers, they are aircraft specifically designed to fight forest fires.

They’re brand new, hot off the assembly line and they’re lined up ready for any ‘hot spots’ that show up on the Island or across the province.

The four 802 Fire Boss planes look a lot like crop dusters but they’re much more than that.

For one, their pontoons give them the ability to land on either land or water.

And on the bottom of those pontoons there are sensors which open the plane’s main frame water tank allowing the aircraft to skim over water and fill the 800 gallon tank in less than 10 seconds.

The lightning quick and deadly accurate delivery of water, or fire retardant, puts the Fire Boss in a league of its own when it comes to fighting forest fires from the air.

The four 802 Fire Boss planes, along with a Cessna Grand Cara-van ‘bird dog’ aircraft, arrived in Campbell River Thursday, from the Kamloops Provincial Air-tanker Centre, to take care of a local ‘pocket hazard’ fire.

The ‘bosses’ of the Fire Boss fi re fi ghting crew include from left, pilots Barry Florian, Bryce Connaty, Justin Brooks, Rick Radymski and Roland Gray, along with air attack offi cer Eric Antifaeff. (Photos/Ken Zaharia)

“How long we stay here depends on the weather, it’s real-ly kind of day to day, we could be called to anywhere in B.C.,” said air attack officer Eric Antifaeff.“While we’re here we’ll be train-ing with the airport ground crew staff on different procedures.

“These aircraft (Fire Boss) allow us to get into more spots where larger (fire fighting) air-craft can’t go. These aircraft can basically go anywhere.”

Besides Antifaeff, there are five pilots and two engineers in the crew.

“The ‘bird dog’ (Cessna) and crew goes up first, assesses the fire and plans the tactics to fight

it. It makes sure all the (Fire Boss) runs are good and on tar-get,” said Fire Boss pilot Barry Florian. “These planes really are a lot of fun to fly.”

The B.C. Forest Service air-tanker fleet command and control is the responsibility of the provincial Airtanker Centre. The centre dispatches fixed wing aerial fire fighting resources from any one of the 18 tanker bases in B.C. Strategic decisions regarding numbers, position and alerts are established by the centre in consultation with air attack specialists and fire centre personnel.

When art becomes part of the healing processWhen ground is broken on

Campbell River’s new hospital in July, city councillor Claire Moglove wants to make sure it’s a work of art.

And not in the manner usually associated with that term.

Moglove thinks an idea by the Campbell River Hospital Art Group (CRHAG) is so good she wants North Islands Chief Pro-ject Officer Tom Sparrow to put it higher on his priority list.

She was referring to a comment from CRHAG representative Ken Blackburn during Tues-day night’s council meeting. Blackburn said he had talked to Sparrow about the hospital art project but that because of Spar-row’s hectic schedule the subject of putting art up on the walls of a building that hasn’t even began

construction was understand-ably not his top priority.

But Blackburn and his group’s idea to put art and colour schemes into the blank spaces of the hospital seems like such a good idea, Moglove is right behind it.

And that’s always nice when you have the Chair of the Comox-Strathcona Regional Hospital District in your corner.

But Blackburn, who is also the Executive Director of the Camp-bell River Arts Council and an accomplished artist himself, wants to get the project started before the new hospital is open.

His idea is to put works of local artists at various loca-tions throughout the hospital to “reflect the healing centre that it is.”

And the project, he said, is for patients, visitors and staff.

On Tuesday night Blackburn showed a series of photographs from our current hospital and they brought home a kind of coldness and unwelcoming atmosphere. They were photos of bare, white wall spaces. Lots of them.

He also showed some photo-shopped versions of how those “white spaces” could be trans-formed and it was a remarkable transition.

Blackburn and the CRHAG want to start now on the exist-ing hospital and use it, he said, almost on an experimental grounds that would give them vital information as to how to properly adorn the new hospital when it opens.

Moglove even went so far as to suggest the approach could also be used for the new hospital being built in Courtenay at the same time. She said the buildings have a lot of similar designs so rolling over the idea from Camp-bell River could be easier.

Using art and visually appeal-ing design in health care facili-ties is not a new idea, but it is one that have proven merits.

We have great artists in our area and perhaps they should be challenged in a more meaning-ful way. Perhaps they could use those white spaces and paint about 25 extra rooms for the hospital. Because even the best van Gogh isn’t going to make a patient feel any better when their bed is in a hallway or a broom closet.

Quote of the day::Don’t go around saying the world owes you a living. The world owes you nothing. It was here first.

Mark Twain

Wizard of Ozzberta and possible legal action

Not long ago, with an immense degree of self-restraint I might add, I

wrote about my consternation that the City of Campbell River was using a promotional film on its web site from Beauregard Alabama to promote how much local service clubs are part of our community.

Campbell River, where people come to from around the world to experience and photograph our natural beauty, was using and promoting the Beauregard palm trees and city vistas like they were ours.

That Alabama video is still up on the site and now I know why.

I attended the city council meeting tonight (Tuesday) and there, in front of the packed council chambers, was the Wiz-ard of Ozzberta!

Campbell River city councillor Ryan Mennie’s face was pro-jected on a huge screen above the council chambers, in a link up

from his new home in Alberta.It wasn’t long before I hoped

that if I just closed my eyes, clicked my heels three times, my little dog Toto and I would be back in Kansas, er, Alabama, where this nightmare began.

Instead it went on.The Wizard of Ozzberta glared

down from the imperious screen and I stared back, creeped out. When he looked directly in the camera it seemed like he was looking directly at me! I kept murmuring, “It wasn’t me, it was the Cowardly Lion who wrote that editorial criticizing you for try-ing to maintain your seat on city council while living in another

province and collecting a cool $10,700 in the process.” But if he heard me he didn’t let on.

His head was ginormous, bigger than usual.

I was thinking I might rush up to the screen and look behind it to see if he was actually there. You know, like in the movie.

And then Mayor Walter Jake-way’s words stopped me.

Jakeway told those in attend-ance that the Wizard of Ozz-berta’s appearance via video at the city council meeting was quite likely being challenged in court.

I approached Jakeway at a corner in the Yellow Brick Road

shortly after and before he could explain further, 10 flying monkeys came down and carried him off.

As the council meeting proceed-ed two city staff — undoubtedly munchkins in disguise — busied themselves with the Wizard of Ozzberta’s wishes. One kept putting the great Ozzbertan’s face back on the screen when it disappeared during other presen-tations and the other informed the chambers the Wizard would, indeed, speak.

The Wizard of Ozzberta spoke once and ominously during the two and half hour council meet-ing — about the homeless shelter in Campbell River and I took that as a personal hint.

Again I tried to click my heels and hold my dog and blame, this time, the Tin Man and the Scare-crow for any nasty things that were written in this paper about him. I just wanted to go home to Alabama.

Instead the Wizard of Ozzberta just grinned and said, “No, I am home now, you have to stay in Campbell River for the rest of your life.”

I tried to protest and he shut me down.

“I’ll get you my pretty,” he said. “And that goes for your little blog too.”

OPINION FRIDAY, JUNE 27, 2014 || CAMPBELL RIVER COURIER-ISLANDER || 13

Atent full of roses to Don. When I wrote how our camping gear was stolen

from Stella Bay I had no idea one stranger would open his heart up to us. Don, you went out of your way to see to it we got another tent. Just when my faith in people was lost, you showed me that there truly are kind people left in this world. I can-not express how grateful I am to your unselfish generosity. Please accept my heartfelt thank you and just know that we will have many happy camp outs in our new tent.

Grateful

Ahuge thank you to all the parents, students, busi-nesses, CUPE members

and members of other unions who have supported Penfield teachers on the picket line. We are grateful for the coffee, good-ies, pizza, home-baked goods, refreshments and moral support. You make a difficult situation easier.

Penfield Teachers

The Campbell River Trail Riders would like to send a bale of roses to Rod Kras-

man of Shoppers Drug Mart, Balance Equestrian Centre for loaning us Pippin, Patches and Sunny, Quality Foods for your loaner tent, Jim Lilburn, Carol, Jackie, Nathan, Hunter, Soda, Buddy, Max, Sara and Rocky, Jeanette, Tzanza, Nessa, Peep-ers, Eager and Daffy, Sandra and Copper, Darby and Poco, Corinne, Tuffy and Xena, Kimberly and Socks, Landis and Corinna, and to the grandparents, CRTR and Pony Club volunteers. A special thanks to Bounce-A-Rama and all of the garage sale and market vendors for participating in our first Country Extravaganza!

The Executive

Aschool full of roses to the many, many businesses who have supported our

Fun Fair at Ecole Mer-et-monta-gne this year again. Your gener-osity and sense of community have, once again, helped making this event a huge success, dona-tions towards our silent auction, concession and BBQ were just amazing, so thank you all! A very special thank you also to our platinum sponsors for their amazing support: Kermit and Betty from Associated Tire and Auto for their time and amaz-ing BBQ on wheels, Superstore, Quality Foods, Safety Net, Econ, Royal LePage, Dr. Finn, Re/max - Baikie and Dr. Ferron. Merci also to all parents, students, volunteers who spent hundred of hours before and during the event. See you all next year! :)

Ecole Mer-et-montagne Fun Fair Committee

Dear Wendy Burke,Have you driven down

between said points (Pier Street and the Spirit Square) lately? Then you will see the fleet of vehicles parked on either side. Trucks towing boats, RV’s, trailers, delivery trucks etc. The parking situation is very dire

at the moment with the park-ing lot closed beside Georgia Quay. What does this have to do with your rather rude thorn? I have tried using the crosswalk because I work in this area and have nearly been killed several times — even after waiting for traffic to slow down and acknow-ledge me. There is no way that a driver can see a pedestrian if they wait at the pedestrian sign. There are too many vehicles in the way, so pedestrians must step out onto the road and wait....and wait and wait — so where is the “consideration” I ask you? I’m sure we can all be a little more understanding and compassionate.

Just As Frustrated

Iwould like to send lots of thorns to the many members of the Newcomers group in

Campbell River who have lived here for more than two or three years and STILL belong to New-comers. Quite a few have lived here for up to eight years!

I moved here a few months ago and went to two meetings and was disappointed to find that the “oldtimers” in the club are already friends, and have formed cliques and are really not welcoming. They visit with each other and it is like their own social club. I have since spoken to three other recent arrivals who said they experienced the same thing when they tried out

the group so they too stopped attending.

I have lived in two other cities and belonged to Newcomers in each one, and the rules are, (and there ARE rules) that after two or three years you are no longer a newcomer and move on to a separate social club. So to all you “oldtimers”, you need to quit and move on because the way you have set up the club is just not working for the real new-comers. There are enough recent arrivals to this lovely city to form a viable club which is the way the club is supposed to be.

A Disappointed Real Newcomer

Abig bouquet to the Good Samaritan who picked me up after my bike accident

and got myself and my bike to emergency on the late afternoon of Wednesday, June 18. I know that I had a crash somewhere in downtown Campbell River, but due to a concussion I have no memory of the event and it would be nice to know if anyone can shed any light on what hap-pened. I would also like to thank my rescuer personally. Please call 250-285-2103.

Mark

Ahuge truck load of roses to Wes from Maritime Heritage Centre. Wes was

amazing...we had my sister and brother in law’s wedding there

this past weekend and Wes went above and beyond in every way possible to help with all details. Nothing was too small or too big for Wes to handle. Wes is an expert in his job...wedding plan-ner/organizer extraordinaire! From the moment we got to the hall on Friday morning to the moment we were doing clean up on Saturday night he helped in anyway possible. Wes also went out of his way to keep the wed-ding party happy and our thirst quenched as we finished pictures early and waited to make our entrance into the hall. Again Wes...thank you very, very much for everything you did...you rock!!

Lindsey Boulter and Boyd/Clark Wedding

Last Wednesday when walk-ing with my dog along the Beaver Lodge main trail,

coming out onto Trask Road, what did I see but a black bear ambling up the road toward us. I stood and waited for a few moments, hoping the bear would decide to hop up to the under-brush and take another route to wherever s/he was going. It didn’t. There is one house there that has two dogs and I walked into their yard, hoping that either someone was home, or maybe the dogs would bark and scare off the bear. Predictably, the dogs barked.

14 || CAMPBELL RIVER COURIER-ISLANDER || FRIDAY, JUNE. 27, 2014 OPINION

Even should the gov-ernment stop stone-walling and bargain

a deal by the end of June, as they have repeatedly promised they want to do, September is going to be chaos in the schools. Classrooms will be disor-ganized, timetables and schedules will be poorly arranged, supplies will not have been ordered and more. School ending/startup is a complex pro-cess and one or two over-whelmed administrators cannot do the work of an entire missing team. Right

now everyone’s thinking summer is here and by September the strike will be done and all will be normal. But supposedly teachers are “locked out” as of Wednesday so we can’t even enter the build-ing until the first day of school. Of course the Min-ister of Education keeps saying everything is taken care of and that reassures everyone that even with-out those annoying teach-ers all will be well with public education. Who is going to get school ready to go next year?

However, everything is not well with public educa-tion because the govern-ment keeps spending a lot of our tax dollars to avoid improving it by continuing to fight a quixotic court case and by several years of sham bargaining. We should all be asking for an accounting of how many millions have been spent continuing to battle with teachers instead of fairly bargaining a reasonable contract.

In case you haven’t heard this yet, in 2002 the liberal government stripped vari-

ous provisions from the collective agreement to the tune of $275 million dollars. This led to closed schools, lost teachers and bigger classes for all your children. That means an entire generation of stu-dents has been shorted some $3 billion which should have been funding their education.

They didn’t just strip the teachers’ contract. They also stripped other public sector union contracts. All of the unions went to court. All of them won and had provisions restored

and/or reparations made. Now we are here in 2014, 12 years later, and the teachers have won in court as well. Twice. The first time the government didn’t appeal. They tried to legislate a substandard remedy and the Supreme Court ruled that not only had they not resolved the contract strip issue but they had deliberately tried to provoke a strike with teachers so they could legislate a contract.

The court fined the gov-ernment and ruled that they must restore the lan-

guage from the 2002 contract.

This is now under appeal and I guess we will see what happens in court, but my personal feeling based on all the other decisions is that the decision is likely to stand.

The right to appeal is part of our judi-cial system and I

personally like that I live in a country where there are lots of opportunities to prove your case.

However, based on all that has gone before I think it is a bit fantastic to imagine this case will turn out differently and it is our public money being used to wage the battle.

I suspect the motiva-tion is to stall and hope for a Hail Mary save in the fall, and maybe even sow enough discord and despair amongst the teachers that it breaks the union.

For certain we aren’t even making strike pay and the “lock out” sham to steal 10 per cent of our salary was appalling and really hurt those who rely on a single income.

We will start the next school year the poorer for the experience and not just in terms of money.

Douglas BlueLocal teacher

Continued from page 13.They did their job — well done. Just then a group

of ladies walked by, also leaving the trails, so I told them of the bear and we all looked up the road. No bear, so apparently it had left. Many roses and thanks to Margo who very kindly gave myself andmy dog a ride up to McPhedran. Nature is beautiful but bears are best viewed from a distance!

Marina

Royal Albert teapots filled with multi-col-oured roses to the Altrusa club and City of Campbell River 50-plus active living. The

ladies did an excellent job of serving and putting on the vintage fashion show, right down to the cut, colourful wee hats we were all greeted with at our tables. Beautiful bouquets of flowers adorned every table, both were very special touches. We, and all who were lucky to be there to enjoy the afternoon send our heartfelt thanks.

Lorna, Lorraine, Jess, Diana

Abeautiful bouquet of roses go out to the great crew at the Best Wok Restaurant who graciously donated a smorgasbord

to a Cops for Cancer head shave fun-razor event organized by a team from Chan Nowosad Boates. Great food and great fun was had by all but the best news is that over $1,700 was raised for Camp Goodtimes that benefits kids with cancer. A special thank you also goes out to all of you who attended.

Ray Dagenais

Roses, please, to the two kind men who sep-arately stopped to offer my husband assist-ance while he was changing a flat tire in the

parking lot of our insurance agent.Thorns, though, to the City of Campbell River

who are proposing a traffic control light or stop sign at the intersection of Petersen Road and 14th Avenue. If it is such an important intersec-tion why is busy Petersen Road not improved and made safer. I have been nearly sideswiped twice this week by vehicles roaring up the hill from 14th Avenue and crossing the centre line. It is a narrow, winding road with lots of traffic and pedestrians and it is dangerous.

Looking for summerprograms for kids?City is offering some great outdoor activitiesCOURIER-ISLANDER

This summer you can sign up your kids to spend part of each

day outside enjoying the sun and connecting with nature in some of Camp-bell River’s parks and green spaces.

The City of Campbell River’s Recreation and Culture Department is offering programs that help inspire children with an active appre-ciation of nature. Each program includes classic camp games, crafts and different weekly themes and adventures.

Haig-Brown Kids Camp is a week-long pro-gram that begins July 7 and runs most summer weeks until August 16. The camp takes place from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on the Haig-Brown prop-erty, where kids will

have the chance to learn about salmon habitat, ecosystems and environ-mental stewardship.

“This camp is a true Campbell River outdoor experience,” said recrea-tion programmer Mar-garet Lukban. “Each day is filled with fun and adventure as children go on field trips, tube down the Campbell River and play forest games.”

Nutty for Nature gives children the chance to explore the outdoors, play in the dirt, learn

about insects and collect treasures. This program runs Aug. 12 to 14, for two different age groups.

“The kids really do go nutty for nature,” says program coordinator Kevin Elmore. “Children at this age are extremely curious and love being outside which makes this program perfect!”

Three morning classes will run from 9 to 11:30 a.m. for preschool chil-dren (3 to 4 years) at $53.

Three afternoon class-es will run from 12:30 to 3:30 p.m. for children 5 to 7 years old at $60.

For more information about these programs, go to the Sportsplex or Community Centre, or pick up the Spring/Sum-mer Recreation Guide, available at our recrea-tion facilities and online at www.campbellriver.ca.

“Each day is filled with fun and adventure as children go on field trips, tube down the Campbell River and play forest games.” — Lukban

The city has a great selection of outdoor programs that gets your kids away from the computer and the video games.

DONATIONS CAN BE MADE AT THE FOLLOWING LOCATIONS:


Arecord number of cases have been admitted to Mountainaire Avian Rescue Society (MARS) this spring and the facility is short on cash.

Maj Birch, spokesperson for MARS, said that they also need donations of berries and bugs to feed the baby birds who are in abundance, includ-ing two hummingbirds who need feeding every 15 minutes from dawn to dusk, eight robins, two baby barn owls, one red squirrel, one baby racoon, four young ravens, an endangered Western Screech Owl, 13 young ducks, six younger mallards, four baby roughed grouse, a bald eagle, some baby deer but no partridge in a pear tree.

“We have a lot of hungry babies here,” said Birch.MARS is asking the public for donations of fresh

or frozen berries, sow bugs, wood bugs, walnuts, earth worms, and chick weed.

“We are about 100 to 150 cases over any previous year,” said Birch. “In fact we are running a deficit budget this year and are hopeful that donations from individuals and corporate donors will be able to step up to help us out as we depend upon these to carry us through. We encourage folks to commit to monthly giving as then we can budget for those funds.”

To donate, go on line to their website www.wingtips.org, click on the ‘donate now’ button that takes you to CanadaHelps.org where it guides you through the process to set up monthly withdrawals. Also on their facebook page is a new ‘donate now’ button.

“Of course we benefit if checks or cash are donated to us directly as then we don’t have to pay any service fees,” said Birch. “We also have a legacy program if others wish to plan for the future of MARS.”

Mountainaire Avian Rescue Society is located at 6817 Headquarters Road in Courtenay, and can be reached at 250-337-2021.

MARSstruggles asbaby boomhits facility

Fluffy baby Barn Owls look so sweet but their vocalizations are anything but. However, this is a good sign of a healthy baby. And MARS says they could use your help to satisfy their growing appetites.

Baby bald eaglet ‘Johnnie’ came to MARS from Whiskey Point on Quadra Island. It’s quite possible he was bullied out of the nest by older, aggressive siblings. The little bald eaglet is doing very well. The eaglet was named ‘Johnnie,’ after a friend of the rescuer who passed away a few days ago.

20 || CAMPBELL RIVER COURIER-ISLANDER || FRIDAY, JUNE. 27, 2014 LIVING

What better way to Celebrate Canada Day in British Columbia than by enjoying a glass of one of BC’s many fine home-grown wines?

Light reds like Three Bear Ranch B|3 Pinot Noir (627760) $14.99 straddle the line between red and rosé. Finessed from grapes grown in three different vineyards spread throughout the Okanagan Valley – primarily Oli-ver, with Osoyoos and Kelowna – it offers up a medley of sweet strawberry and tart rhubarb flavours.

The 2013 British Columbia Wine Grape Crop Report notes a 15 per cent increase in total tonnage. That’s equivalent to 250,000 cases of wine! This is a record harvest for BC’s wine grape growers and the third year

in a row the report has charted a significant increase in both value and tonnage for the grape wine crop.

Few white wines are as seduc-tive as an off-dry British Col-umbia Gewürztraminer. Ripe grapes and vibrant cool-climate acidity make luscious wines like Red Rooster Gewürztraminer (498832) $16.99 from Naramata vineyards. Lychee fruit and rose petal aromas lead into flavours of ripe apples, melons and pears with a generous dose of fresh-peeled lychee fruit flavours and a splash of pink grapefruit in the finish.

With a record wine grape har-vest in British Columbia, our best wines may finally be able to quench some of the growing demand outside the province. As well as pursuing markets in Hong Kong and the US, local wineries can continue to grow their market share in Alberta and Ontario.

Unusually elegant whites are rare enough to always be a pleas-

ant surprise. Cedar Creek Chardonnay (237974) $17.95offers down-right astonish-ing complexity of flavour by blending in six

per cent Pinot Gris. Promisingly pale gold, this white wine leads with silky lemon flavours, sliding through subtle melon and pine-apple into toasted oak, vanilla and hazelnut. No surprise that it won a double gold medal for ‘Best of Category’ at the 2014 All Canadian Wine Championships!

With grapes sourced from Summerland and Penticton vine-yards, Wild Goose Pinot Gris (536227) $18 is a very restrained example of what could well become the Okanagan Valley’s signature white wine. Soft, ripe green apple and canned pear aromas and flavours ride a zesty base of subtly citric lemon rind that finishes with a sprinkling of sage.

Primarily Merlot and Pinot Noir with a generous splash of Syrah, Road 13’s Honest John’s Red (290684) $19.99 complicates things completely by adding Gamay Noir, Cabernet Sauvi-gnon, Cabernet Franc and even a dash of Viognier into the mix. Lots of damson plum and cherry/berry fruit flavours, here, in an easy to like medium bodied style.

Up until this vintage, most of Naramata’s Joie Farm’s wines were available either directly from the winery or in a limited number of private stores. Now more widely available, this year’s

Joie Farm Rosé (511469) $20.93blends 60 per cent Pinot Noir with 40 per cent Gamay with, one per cent Pinot Meunier and 10 per cent Pinot Gris into a barely off-dry mouthful of red berry fruit and desert sage. Just a light chilling allows this lovely Rosé to be savoured slowly and fully appreciated.

Blended Bordeaux-styled reds like Stag’s Hollow “The Herit-age Block” Cabernet Merlot (115972) $24.99 start with the ripe dark plum flavours of Mer-lot leading into the bright but firm blackcurrant flavours of Cabernet Sauvignon. To top it all off there’s that spicy raspberry twist that comes from Cabernet Franc. At its best 3-5 years after release, this structured red blend will soften up after an hour in a wide-surfaced decanter.

Some of the wine grapes that are grown in the Okanagan Val-ley have more unusual fates than

simply being fermented into fine wines. Although it comes in many styles, by definition Mead is a fermented alcoholic bever-age in which the majority of the fermentable sugars come from honey. Meads that also contain fruit are called Melomels. Melo-mels that incorporate grapes are called Pyments.

Meadow Vista Honey Wines ‘Ostara’ (666990) $21.90 is an aromatic Pyment style honey wine that is made primarily from Okanagan Valley honey and Pinot Gris wine grapes. The dessert sweet medley of honey, pear, melon and mango aromas and flavours benefits from a little chilling -and a sliver of soft whitecheese - to show at their best!

Sip some of our own home grown wines on Canada Day!

COURIER-ISLANDER

Every second year, Powell River plays host to some of the finest choirs from around the world at the International Choral Kathau-mixw. One of the happy benefits for Campbell River music lovers is that we’re able to enjoy a concert by one of the visiting choirs before they return to their homeland. This year we have the good fortune to hear the Tachov Children’s Choir from the Czech Republic at 8 p.m., Monday, July 7, at Campbell River United Church.

Under the direction of found-ing director Josef Brabanec, the Tachov Children’s Choir has won numerous international awards

and has performed in 16 Euro-pean countries, South Africa, Brazil, Argentina, and China before coming to Canada. With 60 voices in their principal choir, they perform a wide variety of folk, secular and sacred music.

The concert’s sponsor, Island Voices Chamber Choir, is still looking for places to billet the children for the night of the concert. For further information about the concert or about bil-leting, please go to <http://www.islandvoiceschamberchoir.bc.ca/> or contact Jo-Anne Pres-ton at 250-337-5730.

Tickets for this concert are $10 and are available at the Camp-bell River Visitor’s Centre or at the door.

Czech Choir comingto Campbell River

The Tachov Children’s Choir from the Czech Republic will perform in Campbell River Monday, July 7, at the United Church.

“Being the product manager in charge of the2014 Chevrolet Silverado, isn’t always easy. But that challenge is probably what I like most about my job. We built a V8 engine that’s as fuel effi cient as some V6s. People didn’t think that could be done, we did it. I’m proud of that.”

Several businesses on Dun-can Bay Road will be hav-ing their signs taken down

by the city if they do not remove them on their own.

Connie Cawley, owner of D&T Rebuilders, said her company has had their sign on the corner of Duncan Bay Road and the high-way since 1999.

“We received a letter from bylaw enforcement saying that we have

to tear down our business signs on the highway because it is a bylaw infraction,” said Cawley. “They said they had a complaint but won’t tell us what the complaint was about or who it was from.”

Cawley said that other busi-nesses including ABC Recycling, Flurer Smokery, Schnitzer Steel, and Mark Ranniger Royal LePage For Sale signs all received notice.

“Why are they picking on our signs?” asked Cawley. “They are directional signs that show people how to find our businesses. These signs have been there for years. For us being so many miles out of town in a heavy industrial area, no restaurants, boutiques, only heavy industry, who gives a damn

about our signs?”Cawley said her sign, worth

about $800, would take a crane truck to lift.

“It seems quite odd the city would jump on the bandwagon now. There is something called grandfathering or legal non-con-forming. The city is being a bully. Is that tolerated in this town?” she asked.

The letter from bylaw enforce-ment said that if the owners do not take the signs down then the city will take them down and impound them. Owners will have to pay storage and handling to get the signs back within five days of impoundment or they will be destroyed.

Campbell River City Clerk Peter Wipper said the city received a complaint about the signs and subsequently investigated.

“The signs are located on the highway right-of-way, none of them have permits except the sign belonging to Connie Cawley, but that permit expired,” said Wipper. “You cannot put up remote signs in the community unless a permit is issued. You cannot put up a sign on someone else’s property unless they are billboards on First Nations property. So there are two reasons the notices were issued. You cannot have a sign on prop-erty that is not your place of busi-ness, and although we are not in the business of enforcing highway

laws, we did check with them and there are no valid permits on that corner.”

Cawley said the city should be prepared to take down all other signs violating the bylaw.

“Two big majors are Painter’s Lodge and the Dolphins Resort, are they going to serve them noti-ces too?” she said.

“I have counted many that are illegal on the way into town. It is so sad the city is prepared to put down five businesses when we are still struggling with the closure of the pulp mill.

“The signs are not there to look pretty. They are there to bring customers to us.”

Kaiya McPay, a local up and coming powerlifter, made an extraordinary showing at the BC Provincial Powerlifting Cham-pionships in Vancouver, bringing home a gold medal and smashing records along the way. McPay trains and coaches out of Camp-bell River’s Crossfit O’Twelve Gym.

Powerlifting is an intense and exciting sport testing both phys-ical and psychological strength. Powerlifters train to lift enor-mous weights and while there are obvious requirements of great

strength, precision and technique, it is the overall iron will and cor-rect tactical decisions which are necessary in order to mount the winners’ podium. There are three attempts in each of the disci-plines, the best lift in each disci-pline is added together to arrive at a lifter’s total for the competition, they are then ranked.

McPay hit two of the three back squats successfully. “I missed depth on my second lift due to a slight wardrobe malfunction, but went into the back and with the support of my coach Phil Howe, got my head back in the meet. After sorting out my singlet, I

went back in, squatting full depth and then some,” said McPay. She came in 5 kg short of a provincial record, finishing with 115 kg.

McPay crushed the previous bench press record of 72.5 kg, lift-ing 86 kg.

“I really surprised myself, and everyone else, on this one,” said McPay.” My nerves started to creep out during warm-up, but thanks to one of the meet coordin-ators, Gabe, and all the support backstage, all three lifts went up like a dream, and I felt I could rep out on my last attempt.”

She continued to smash records by beating the old deadlift stan-

dard by 17 kilos, lifting 142.5 kg.“My first two attempts were

smooth, but my coach and I decided to stay with the small jump on my last attempt, as I was getting pretty emotionally exhausted, and my glutes and hamstrings had had about enough awesome for one day,” added McPay. “As I approached the bar, I felt confident, thank goodness, because I had to fight for every last inch of that pull to finish suc-cessfully.”

In the final count, her total weight raised was 343.5 kg, beat-ing the old provincial record of 305 kg by a whopping 38.5 kg.

The Dick’s Fish & Chips Peewee C Ravens are off to a perfect start to the Vancouver Island Peewee C Lacrosse League playoffs.

Playing the opening two games of the three team double round robin playoffs, in Fuller Lake Saturday and Sunday, the Ravens swept both games to put them-selves in the driver’s seat for a berth to Provincials next month.

Saturday’s opening game against the Saanich Tigers was a real barnburner with the two teams tied at 5-5 after regula-tion. In the overtime the Ravens scored two unanswered goals for

a 7-5 victory.In Sunday’s game the Ravens

took on Vic-Esquimalt. Once again it was a closely fought affair with the Ravens heading into the final period tied at 3-3 with Vic-Esquimalt. And once again the Ravens defence was outstanding and once again they netted two unanswered markers for a 5-3 win.

The Ravens will continue their playoff run again this weekend, this time in Nanaimo. Saturday they play Saanich and Sunday they go up against Vic-Esqui-malt. Another pair of victories and the Ravens will be going to the ‘big show’ - Provincials.

TERRY GUEST SPECIAL TO THE COURIER-ISLANDER

The Wilroc Sprint cars lit up Saratoga Speedway on Saturday. These speed demons put on an amazing show of driv-ing talent, accompanied by a full field of Dwarf cars, Bomber cars and the I.M.C.A Modifieds.

Fourteen Sprint cars graced Saratoga. Two heats were given with the B going to #55 Jeff Bird and the A going to local driver #11 Duane Zeinstra. Thirty laps were given to the main and it was one of the tightest races seen at Saratoga this year.

Lap one saw a small fire on the front stretch as #3 Jim Giles had a bit of a gas fire which was cleared up right away. From that point the race went green,

white and checkered with Zeinstra bat-tling #22 Dave Emmerson for first, but down the stretch Emmerson would estab-lish himself in first and he wouldn’t look back from there, holding off Zeinstra to win the first Sprint car main event of the year.

Another hard battle was fought between #15 Marc Stuart and #42 Guy Barrett for third and fourth, with Stuart passing Bar-rett on lap 28 and holding on from there, with Barrett finishing fourth.

A full field of 11 I.M.C.A Modifieds quali-fied on Saturday. Local favourite #91 Chris Beaulieu was dominating the field going into the 20 lap main, setting fast time and winning the 12 lap heat. Beau-lieu would find himself battling #92 Dano Bryant hard for the first 12 laps of the

main for second, but as they were dueling it out #88 Troy Tarbuck was able to pull away from the field and he wouldn’t look back from there, as he was able to hold of Beaulieu late to take his first main event win of the year and snapping Beaulieu’s winning streak at two.

#48 Stewart Lee had his best night ever in the Dwarf car field which saw a 10 car field arrive. Lee would set fast time in qualifying and would hold of the field to win the heat. Twenty five laps were given to their main event which saw Beaulieu running double duties as he was behind the wheel of the #10 Dwarf car; Lee and Beaulieu would take the field four wide within the first few laps and they would pull away from the field from there, with Lee eventually getting the better of Beau-lieu, passing him around turn four and he wouldn’t look back from there, starting his Dwarf car season at Saratoga with a clean sweep.

A season high eight Bomber cars hit the track on Saturday. #33 Brian Baltis would hold off the field to win the 10 lap heat; 20 laps were awarded to their main which saw #11 Justin Beaulieu race to the front on lap four, but would accident-ally spin out a fellow racer, ending his night early with a black flag. The door was now open for #15 Don Hallgarth who would find his way into the lead on lap 11 and he wouldn’t look back from there, taking home his first main event of the year.

Extra laps...Next weekend marks the second showing of the Speedway’s amaz-ing fireworks display in celebration of Canada Day. Accompanying the fireworks extravaganza will be the Crash to Pass cars, Hornet cars, Roadrunners, Figure 8’s, Bomber cars and the I.M.C.A Modi-fieds which is all sponsored by Woodland Wide Plank Flooring. The event will run rain or shine.

Are you a fast rider, or are you a slow rider? The answer is yes...

I don’t care who you are. There is always someone slower than you and there is always someone faster than you.

I try to live by the state-ment “Ride Your Own Ride.” In my opinion it is the easiest way to erase egos, diminish ride stress and keep the fun in biking. Its not about what Tom, Dick and Mary can do on their bike, it’s about you

having fun on your bike. If you’ve ever been on a

ride and watched someone flow down a steep tech-nical section that you had to walk, only to get frus-trated because you didn’t do it, or get dropped on a long climb and feel less of a rider because of it, then you are putting expecta-tions on yourself based on another rider’s skill and experience. STOP IT! Just ride your own ride.

If you have to wait at the bottom of a descent for your buddies to catch up, or someone on your ride wants to walk a section because it’s a bit over their head, don’t get impatient, and don’t let your head swell to quickly. Just ride your own ride.

By ride your own ride, I don’t mean ride alone, but ride how you like to ride. If you want to jump off everything you see and ride as fast as possible, but your friends are slower, who cares. Pin it and wait for them once in a while.

If you are going

to skip a ride because you don’t want to hold someone up, let it go, you wouldn’t have been invited you weren’t welcomed. They want you to ride and have fun, and they’ll wait for you; that is the culture of a group ride.

If you are that rider who is all worried about holding people up…keep in mind that guy or gal way out in front of you got crushed by someone faster last week, or last year. We’ve all been there. Also keep in mind that on the next ride, you may be riding with slower riders and they’ll wish they could ride like you, so be understanding, ride your own ride and wait for them at the trail junctions.

For all you hammer heads out there, please remember what it was like when you started rid-ing…yeah that’s right, you were that rider holding everyone up and you were still invited back.

So, are you a fast rider, or are you a slow rider…the answer is it doesn’t matter, just ride your own ride.

I’m James Durand and I’m Goin’ Ridin’.

COURIER-ISLANDER

Dan Clements and Dave Brown, members of the River City Cycle Club decided to find out if they could ride 580 kilometres in two days with no support – just them-selves and their bikes.

They registered for the Oregon Outback Race which follows a route that runs from Klamath Falls at the southern border of Oregon to Deschutes State National Park at the northern border with Wash-ington State. The route is 75 per cent dirt and has 17,000 metres of elevation gain.

To say the least this is defin-itely not a beginner route. Water

is scarce; cell service limited and there are very few places to pick up supplies. So riders need to be self sufficient. Most riders take seven days and six nights to cover the route.

The participants in the event, put on by Velo Dirt, left Klamath Falls at 7 a.m. The fastest rider completed the route in 28 hours. Clement finished in 55 hours with Brown close behind in 57 hours. They placed an impressive eighth and 10th respectively overall out of 125 competitors.

Clements said he struggled on the first night when he misjudged the cold. When temperatures dropped to -3 C Clements was forced to stop

for three hours to thaw out numb feet. The final section into Des-chutes National Park where the surface is loose, sandy gravel and the terrain is rolling was also chal-lenging for both riders.

“You had to pedal hard just to go downhill,” said Clements.

Both riders said they plan to go back next year to try to complete the route in less than 48 hours. For more information on the Oregon outback route go to http://ride-withgps.com/routes/3672491.

Information on the River City Cycle Club which caters to both mountain bike and road bike riders can be found at www.river-citycycle.ca.

Riverites Dan Clements and Dave Brown, along with another rider, look north to Fort Rock at 220 km into the ride.
