Hoping to save lives Clover Valley Community – and tax dollars Calendar From front
says, adding the money earned through prostitution feeds other criminal enterprises – brutal, opportunistic criminality that Rogers firmly believes should not be tolerated by a modern, compassionate society. “SAS saves lives, families, and tax dollars,” he says. Rogers, a man who’s demonstrated a considerable amount of individual will and determination in his physical goals, knows when it comes to fundraising, he can’t do it alone. That’s why he’s reaching out to businesses and individuals, vowing to continue the fundraising and awareness side of things. His ultimate dream is to sign up 10,000 people willing to commit $20 a month, for 24 months. That would bring in $5 million to provide the society with ongoing funding. Never one to sit still for long, Rogers has a full calendar of other feats of endurance planned. He’s participating in a swim relay from Sechelt to Nanaimo on Aug. 11. That event consists of six to eight teams with four swimmers each spending an hour in the water for a 17 mile journey. On Aug. 26, he’s taking part in 2012 Ironman Canada, which is a 4-km swim, 180-km bike ride, and a 42-km run. The Grand Fondo Bike ride is a 142 km bike ride from Vancouver to Whistler. Then it’s back to work for the fall, winter and early spring to rest up for the following year.

Someday, we’ll get this straight. The given name of Lord Tweedsmuir Secondary’s principal, Allan Buggie, is spelled with two “L”s, while Alan Clegg of the school’s alumni association spells his first name with just one L. Slightly different versions ran in last week’s Cloverdale Reporter (“Tweedy celebrates 100 years,” May 30). We’ll get it straight in time for the school’s bicentennial, we promise. – Cloverdale Reporter
