Gulf Islands National Park got a major boost last week after it was announced that new protected lands on Pender, Saturna and Prevost islands had been added to the Reserve.

During a press conference at the Gulf Islands National Park office on Harbour Road on Oct. 12, Michelle Rempel, member of parliament for Calgary Centre-North and parliament secretary to the Minister of the Environment (Peter Kent), announced the expansion and the benefits it will have for the area.

“I am thrilled to announce that more spectacular coastal habitat will be added to Gulf Islands National Park Reserve which sits on the doorDevon MacKenzie/News staff step of Vancouver and Michelle R e m p e l , Victoria,” said Rempel.

Pat Fafard wins an award of a lifetime Saanich Peninsula Chamber of Commerce hosts the 2012 Crystal Awards for business and community Steven Heywood News staff

There were some big local names up for honours at the 2012 Crystal Awards, hosted by the Saanich Peninsula Chamber of Commerce and Island Savings on Thursday, Oct. 11.

Held at The Blue Poppy restaurant at the Butchart Gardens, the awards night was the annual celebration of the best in business in Sidney, Central Saanich and North Saanich. Chamber president Mark deMedeiros says it shows the strength of the Peninsula’s entrepreneurial spirit.

“We are persevering in the face of adversity,” he told a full house and launched into a video called The Peninsula — Diverse by Nature.

“In my opinion, no one else has a better place to work and live.”

Created by Holy Cow Communication Design Inc. (also an award winner), with support from the Sidney Pier Hotel, the Diverse by Nature marketing package is looking for traction. Holy Cow’s Ken Coward said its designed to help bolster the local economy — all it needs is a lead sponsor.

The evening’s guest speaker was Mandy Farmer, chief executive officer of Accent Inns, named one of Business in Vancouver magazine’s Top 40 Under 40. She offered some survival lessons, recalling when she came into the job in 2008 — the start of the long economic decline.

“I talked to all of my employees to get their advice on how to improve business,” she said. “I’m grateful for the challenge we’ve

faced. We’ve been able to grow from it and reap the rewards from all of our employees’ hard work.”

She also encouraged business owners to redefine what success means to them. For her, it went from stable business to happy employees and happy shareholders. Farmer also told the crowd to support each other — by shopping locally.

A highlight of the evening was the presentation of the Lifetime Achievement Award to Pat Fafard, the semi-retired president of the Peninsula Co-op. He has stepped back (somewhat) from the job, but since 1981, he has been a driving force in the Co-op’s growth and success, having built it up from a time of great struggle, until his retirement after 31 years.

Centre gets grant to encourage acceptance Devon MacKenzie News staff

The Mary Winspear Centre has been awarded a large grant to use towards creating performing arts productions that address racism and multiculturalism.

Through the provincial government’s EmbraceBC program, the centre was given $35,000 to put towards theatrical productions much like the Why am I different production that ran earlier this

year. That production focused on issues surrounding racism, multiculturalism and diversity and took cues from problems children in the Saanich School District said they were facing each day.

“It’s a way to address these issues with youth in a non-traditional format,” said the Centre’s development co-ordinator, Lynn Fanelli.

The productions are conceived

by Margaret Watt, instructor and principal at Mountain Dream Pro-

START BEING A GOOD NEIGHBOUR WITH HI

ductions and the children and youth who participate in the program help Watt with deciding what issues should be addressed.

“Getting this grant is a huge opportunity for us,” said Fanelli.

“Margaret has been putting on theatrical programs with youth for five years that deal with all sorts of things like the environment, technology, acceptance. She’s very passionate about working with the kids in all aspects including the story writing and production and

she always deals with issues that affect them in everyday life.”

Prior to receiving the $35,000 grant, the centre also received a $5,000 donation from Coast Capital Savings for the same program.

“This money just gives us a chance to build on what we’ve been doing so far and that makes us very happy,” said Fanelli.

Children from a variety of backgrounds are rehearsing for a production of The Forgotten Children in January — the first of five

planned shows in 2012/13. Fanelli said while older youth (ages 11 to 18) will be mainly the ones on stage, younger children (6 to 10) will help with the overall program, on stage and behind the scenes.

Twenty to 25 children will be involved directly, said Fanelli, and more will take in the shows. She estimates the program will reach up to 4,000 youth when they take the shows on the road in 2013. reporter@peninsulanewsreview.com — With files from Steven Heywood

Rempel also added that some of the new land added will ensure that more of Canada’s rare Garry oak ecosystem is protected.

The new properties are a mix of waterfront and forested areas, including more than 2,700 metres of shoreline.

Rempel said the expansion will eventually lead to the development of new hiking trails, day-use areas and picnic areas and walk-in or boatin camping sites.

All of the purchased lands were acquired from willing sellers or donors and the Saturna Island lands were transferred from Environment Canada to Parks Canada.

Speeders strike out RCMP issue fines, impounds vehicles for excessive speed Devon MacKenzie News staff

The Sidney North Saanich RCMP caught a slew of speeders during a traffic enforcement project on Sept. 30.

The police set up shop on the Pat Bay Highway near the Lands End exit and saw speeders who were doing up to triple the posted speed limits on the stretch of road. “(The) enforcement initiative resulted in the impoundment of five vehicles in separate inci-

“(The) enforcement initiative resulted in the impoundment of five vehicles in separate incidents, all related to excessive speeds.”

– Cpl. Erin Fraser dents, all related to excessive speeds,” said Cpl. Erin Fraser of the Sidney North Saanich RCMP. The Motor Vehicle Act in B.C.

sets the threshold for laying a charges of excessive speed at 41 kilometers per hour or faster over the posted speed limit.

Fraser noted that the vehicles impounded for seven days during the RCMP’s efforts on Sept.

30 were traveling 60km/h or more over the posted limit of 80 km/h.

Drivers of the impounded vehicles were also issued speeding tickets to the tune of $368 each. reporter@peninsula newsreview.com

Wet weather warning to drivers Police caution drivers on the possibility of slick roads Devon MacKenzie News staff

The seemingly endless summer has finally come to a close and Central Saanich police are warning Peninsula residents that wet road conditions could cause an upswing in vehicle related accidents.

“When rain comes after a long dry period, (we often find) there is a sharp increase in collisions on our roads,” said Cpl. Janis Jean of the Central Saanich police.

Jean said drivers should take caution when out and about in the rain because build up of oils on the roadways over long dry periods can cause slicker-than-usual conditions.

“The first rains loosen these greasy materials, and can create an oily slick surface on roads,” she said.

Jean offered some driving tips for hitting the streets during the first rainy periods of the fall weather: • Take your time and leave 10 minutes early.

• Give yourself extra stopping distance between your car and the car ahead of you.

• Drive slowly and stay focused on the road ahead of and around you.

• Keep your tires well maintained for the best possible traction.

• Invest in good quality windshield wipers.

• Turn on your lights at all times in low-visibility conditions.

If you do end up in a skid, Jean offered a few tips for stopping safely: • As hard as it seems — try and stay calm.

• Steer gently into the skid and stop accelerating, which will allow the car to find the road.

• If you do not have antilock brakes, pump your brakes once the car has found the road again.

Why people remain largely unprepared for disaster

250-478-8532 35 Years, Gold-Seal Certified.

We don’t rest until you get the best.

Natalie North News staff

Despite repeated media campaigns and shocking images of devastation from other parts of the world, the vast majority British Columbians remain stubbornly unprepared for the day an earthquake strikes.

Emergency officials estimate only 14 per cent of British Columbians are prepared for the inevitable big one.

Last October 470,000 people registered in The Great British Columbia Shake Out, a provincewide earthquake drill aimed at preparing everyone in B.C. This year, organizers hope to see that number increase. But despite the co-ordinated education effort, many people living in the high-risk coastal earthquake zone choose to ignore the warnings — a choice largely determined by factors known to University of Victoria environmental psychologist Robert Gifford as “dragons of inaction.”

“Although it’s seems obvious, maybe it’s not that obvious,” Gifford said of the reasoning behind the first of six dragons in the way of earthquake preparedness. “If you haven’t heard of (the need to prepare), you’re not going to do it.”

For those who are aware, they often have other things to do, or conflicting goals which stand in the way of planning for disaster.

Sometimes people who are closest to a risk actually perceive it as being a smaller risk, Gifford said, perhaps because they don’t want to face the danger or perhaps because it’s easier to suppress it.

“They may think that it just won’t do any good. A desk or a building isn’t going to save me so why try?”

Social amplification — the influence of those who we surround ourselves with — also has a strong effect, and could be keeping the majority of people who still haven’t prepared from getting on with it, he added.

Gifford’s dragons of inaction — why we don’t do what we know is best for us — reaches beyond disaster preparation to all aspects of how we live.

“We all know we should brush our teeth, we should exercise, we should eat the right things, but a lot of us don’t do those things even when we should,” Gifford said.

Dave Cockle, deputy fire chief for Oak Bay and chair of the B.C. Earthquake Alliance, which oversees the Great British Columbia Shakeout, wants to break through the psychological road-

blocks and get everyone living in earthquake country equipped with plan.

“Be aware and have a preparedness kit, that way you’re not a victim,” Cockle said. “The key messaging in this whole thing, is that you will get caught in an earthquake one day and you need to drop, cover yourself and hold on until the shaking stops and then make your way to your safe area wherever your meeting place is.”

Meanwhile Gifford, despite fully understanding the psychology behind his inaction, admits he remains ill prepared for the big one.

“We have a case of canned beans downstairs. Do I have anything else? No. I’m going to be depending on my case of canned beans. That’s about it. Twelve cans of beans that have probably gone bad. I’m not completely virtuous.”

The psychologist said he does, however, have a designated meeting place with his partner.

Gifford and the remaining 86 per cent of the province who have yet to fully prepare can turn it all around starting with the Shakeout drill, set for 10:18 a.m. on Oct. 18. To register yourself or your workplace, visit shakeoutbc.ca. CFAX 1070 will broadcast the event.

Celebrating Buffleheads

Town of Sidney NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING BYLAW NO. 2033

Friends of Shoal Harbour Sanctuary gather to greet ducks Steven Heywood

Notice is hereby given that the Council of the Town of Sidney will hold a Public Hearing in respect of Bylaw No. 2033, being the proposed amendment to Zoning Bylaw No. 2015 for the Town of Sidney.

News staff

New research into the migration patterns of the Bufflehead duck in the Sidney area shows they are more punctual than previously thought.

On All Buffleheads Day on Sunday, Oct. 14 however, there were none to be seen at Lillian Hoffar Park.

That doesn’t mean the little ducks aren’t around, says president of the Friends of Shoal Harbour Sanctuary Hugh Richards. The group held All Buffleheads Day drew a small crowd in the rain to welcome back the ducks. It is also designed, added Richards, to increase public awareness about the duck and the sanctuary’s ongoing challenges. “The Bufflehead migration is an amazing wonder of nature that we need to recognize and celebrate,� he said.

Richards added it has been only in the last few years that the duck’s precision in its return to Shoal Harbour has become known. Protecting its winter habitat is now more important than ever, as the area is faced with both commercial and residential development impacts.

Kerry Finley, biologist and Friends of Shoal Harbour director, reported the Buffleheads “have broken their own record in punctuality, leaving the Swallows of Capistrano in the dust.� “The world’s smallest diving duck, Buffleheads are renowned for their punctuality, both daily and seasonally, by the clock and by the calendar.�

According to Finley, who has been studying Buffleheads for some 15 years, All Buffleheads Day marks a statistical constant — the 298th day of the year when the ducks have a 67 per cent chance of arriving. He said they have no chance of arriving the next day (Oct. 15) but had an 80 per cent chance of arriving on Oct. 16. “What it means is that Buffleheads arrive on target,’ Finley said, “or within three days, 80 per cent of the time.�

He stated he believes the pattern of consis-

All persons who believe that their property is affected by the proposed amending bylaw will be afforded a reasonable opportunity to be heard or to present written submissions respecting matters contained in the bylaw at the Public Hearing to be held at the Sidney Town Hall, 2440 Sidney Avenue, Sidney, BC on Monday, October 22, 2012 at 7:00 p.m. Written submissions can be received at the Town Hall prior to 4:00pm on October 22, 2012 or at the Public Hearing itself.

diction of weather patterns and the timing of their major flights from coast to coast.

What the Buffleheads might have brought to the area on Oct. 14,

Walk-In Denture Clinic

The purpose of Bylaw No. 2033 is to add to the table in Section 4.2.1, Permitted and Conditional Uses: Detached Residential Zones, the text “C (4.2.2)� in the row for “Secondary Suite� use under the column “R1.3: Lot area of 400m2 or less�. This amendment would allow secondary suites as a permitted use, with conditions, on any property zoned Single-Family High Density Residential – Orchard Area (R1.3), regardless of the size of the property.

Copies of the proposed bylaw and all background documentation may be inspected during normal working hours of 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., Monday to Friday (excluding statutory holidays) from October 10, 2012 to October 22, 2012 at the Sidney Town Hall, 2440 Sidney Avenue, Sidney, BC. Further inquiries may be directed to the Development Services Department, telephone 250-656-1725 or by email at developmentservices@sidney.ca.

Correspondence may be submitted by mail to the address above or by email to developmentservices@sidney.ca and must be received no later than 4:00pm on the day of the Public Hearing. All correspondence submitted will form part of the public record and may be published in a meeting agenda.

OUR VIEW

Buffleheads a boon to Sidney There may have been no Buffleheads on All Buffleheads Day, but a small crowd gathered in Sidney’s Lillian Hoffar Park on Sunday, Oct. 14 is willing to give them another chance.

The small, diving duck is a regular returnee to the area each fall and winter as part of their annual migration. They stop to feed and fatten up on nutrients found both A little rain won’t above and below the surface of the keep them from Shoal Harbour area. making a sighting They are noted for their punctuality, or two this week but this year the folks welcoming them back would have to wait for another day. Not a problem, for most birders are also a tenacious bunch. A little rain won’t keep them from making a sighting or two this week.

While the annual event welcoming back the Buffleheads is generally for the people involved, it has a broader purpose — to help educate others about the migratory bird sanctuary there that was created in 1931.

The Friends of Shoal Harbour Sanctuary was formed to promote awareness and to help people enjoy it.

It is one of three federal migratory bird sanctuaries in the Victoria region, the other two being Victoria Harbour and Esquimalt Lagoon.

To keep Shoal Harbour a welcoming pit stop for the ducks and other birds, volunteers with the group encourage people to ensure their foreshore areas are birdfriendly.

They and others also keep a hawk-like eye out for other impacts on the harbour — from development to pollution — that would also impact the wildlife there.

The Friends also hope to make All Buffleheads Day an annual event in Sidney, attracting birders and others to the area. It could someday be both an economic — and environmental — boon to the community.

That would be terrible if it were true. But those amenities on newer vessels are there because they make money, utilizing staff who have to be on board anyway.

As everyone but the NDP seems to grasp, the big costs are fuel, maintenance, and minimum crew levels to meet federal regulations, regardless of passenger revenue.

I was reminded on the last busy weekend of the year that the new Coastal-class ferries kept vehicle capacity the same while increasing passenger space. This choice anticipated today’s travel reality nearly a decade ago.

Good thing somebody was able to understand ferries as a business, as opposed to a welfare program for the reclusive and the rich.

B.C. Ferries has already cut sailings on the Tsawwassen-Duke point route.

As described in an earlier column, this needlessly long run is the biggest boondoggle in B.C. Ferries history, a Dave Barrett-era payoff to the union that continues today.

Changes will now come to other routes that minimize shifts and overtime, rather than inflating them.

LETTERS Take a hard look at affordable food food.

Currently, North Americans spend between 10 and 15 per cent of their income on food.

In some European countries, that number is closer to 40 per cent — or more.

There are many factors contributing to rising food costs, including but not limited to: increasing demand on global food production due to rising population; rising fuel and agricultural input prices; diminishing freshwater resources and increased pressure to take farm land out of production in order to build homes.

“If any municipal council is serious about affordable housing, they will also address the need for us to produce as much food locally as possible.”

– Bernadette Greene People will always spend money on food first, and housing after.

It stands to reason that as food prices rise, and more of our household income is spent on food, the dream of home ownership will become less and less afford-

able to more and more people.

As fuel costs rise, the closer our food is produced to our homes, the cheaper it can be.

If any municipal council is serious about affordable housing, they will also address the need for us to produce as much food locally as possible, especially as more and more people move to this area.

Promoting and supporting local agriculture, protecting farmland, and finding ways to attract more farmers to this area are as important to providing truly affordable housing as building the houses themselves.

Bernadette Greene North Saanich

Readers respond: North Saanich growth, sociology studies Decisions are already made Re: Delay Denied; Friday. Oct. 5, 2012.

It is most unfortunate for the residents of North Saanich that council has elected to continue to consider development proposals, prior to their proposed community wide public consultation on housing densities in the municipality. While it is true that there are statutory requirements that must be met with regard to public hearings, they in no way paint the big picture for the community. Public hearings are property specific.

To use the example of 9395 East Saanich Road, 37 small lots are being considered. Unless you are a resident that pays very careful attention to what is going on with your local council, you may not realize there are an additional 200-plus units also before Council at this same time.

North Saanich council is about to spend thousands of taxpayer dollars to determine what residents think about density increases, after having approved massive changes to the OCP. In these circumstances, council’s move to host a community consultation process is disingenuous. The decisions will have already been made.

Heather Gartshore North Saanich

It’s time to move forward in North Saanich Some recent letters have commented negatively on the proposed increase in density in North Saanich. These views are too narrow and self-focused.

Neighbourhoods do evolve as needs change. Just because it was like this when we moved in does not preclude future change.

As a community we are part of that economy and must do our part. The Peninsula Chamber of Commerce and business groups have identified housing as an urgent need. That is a valid reason for looking at increased density and lower cost housing. Some will argue endlessly that we cannot guarantee

that this housing will be occupied by local workers. That’s true. The fact is no one can. But if we do not allow increased housing options it’s a certainty that local workers will not live here.

Expecting that kind of certainty is ridiculous and a stalling tactic. Unless we are willing to opt out of the public services paid through economic activity then let’s get on with building a forward looking municipality.

It’s time to move forward and open the doors to new folks. I urge our council to keep up this effort.

J. A. Tomminen North Saanich

Tom Fletcher’s definition of worthless In reading the news of young Coquitlam teenager, Amanda Todd who committed suicide after being severely bullied, I find myself thinking somebody has got to do more to address the shortfalls of today’s school system.

We need to make teens, parents and school staff aware of the added dangers of bullying through social networking sites.

This is why I went to university and got a degree in sociology with a concentration in social justice. I feel in this modern age there are new problems faced by society. Maybe I can help prevent these types of tragedies.

But wait, Tom Fletcher of the B.C. Views column has just informed me sociology is a “worthless pursuit”. I should have gone to school for a trade, something that really matters.

Perhaps mister Fletcher could benefit from learning a little about the effects of bullying and be careful what he calls worthless.

Get those bulbs in the soil T Helen Lang Over the Garden Fence Yesterday I did get the last of the spring flowering bulbs planted, which is a relief. Now itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the winter pansies that require attention.

I simply have to get them into the soil, they look so pathetic just sitting there, waiting for some attention and it is another nice day, so why am I sitting in front of this computer instead of doing something practical?

Maybe its because it is rather cool outside, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cozy in here and I havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t had lunch yet and the phone might ring.

Or someone might ring the door bell, or ... or.

Surely I can think of

a good excuse to put it off for one more day.

There was a nice phone call from Alice D. this past week saying she has a lot of bulbs and plants, far more than she can cope with.

If you would like some and have room for them please give her a call at 250-652-1511, and, between you, a meeting can be arranged. These are free and very little in life is, so now is your opportunity, thanks to Alice!

he trees planted in the divider between north and south bound lanes on Fifth Street are absolutely glorious.

Their fall colouring starts with their usual green, but now includes leaves ranging in colour from pale yellow, through glowing amber, red, to a warm brown.

These colours make fall almost as lovely as the brilliant shades in summer flowers. I hope the leaves will hang on for a few weeks, but we know perfectly well that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have a wild wind storm (just to remind us that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s now fall) and those trees will be left shamefully bare, clutching their branches around their trunks to cover their nakedness.

This morning I saw beautiful vivid colouring on the leaves of a large hydrangea and beside the path, a clump of shy, small fall dandelions which almost cheered me up â&#x20AC;&#x201D; but I came home to face an increasingly uninteresting balcony.

NEWS REVIEW

Vision Young farmers AGM Matters Dr. Paul Neumann

Healthy Eyes.

Doctor Delivered.

How not to read When reading, you should be seated at a desk or in a comfortable chair, not lying on your stomach or on your side. Your back should have a normal curve and not be scrunched or propped up with one arm. If used for a long time the horizontal reading position can seem normal, even though it causes eyestrain. The visual system gets used to a distorted perspective, but the muscles which coordinate the eyes have to work hard to prevent double vision.

Once you decide to be in a comfortable chair, you need to consider what kind it will be. It should permit the feet to be flat on the floor. If the feet do not reach, try a phone book under them. The lower back should be supported, and the desk or table should be at waist level when the person is seated. Working at a surface that is too high gives a similar distortion to viewing a movie from the front row, far side. You know how uncomfortable that can be, not only on your neck but on your eyes as well. A rule of thumb is that the reading distance should be no shorter than the length of your forearm. Be good to your eyes, they are the only two you will ever have.

Spirit event at Parkland Steven Heywood News staff

Hot corn and hot dogs were served up by student and parent volunteers at Parkland Secondary School’s recent spirit barbecue.

It’s one of two spirit barbecues put on by the student council and the parents’ advisory council (PAC). PAC chair Terry Lanktree says they are fun events, designed to offer students a bit of a break in their routine.

“It’s a way of getting kids out, talking, visiting and showing some school spirit,” he said.

Student council president Ryan Trelford said working with parent volunteers shows they are involved in the school and the students themselves have fun and enjoy something a little different.

Trelford added Parkland normally holds one spirit barbecue in the fall and another in the spring. The school also holds spirit assemblies indoors throughout the year.

Saanich Peninsula resident tells history of Ardmore Devon MacKenzie News staff

Tales of arson and scandal may not seem like stories that would come from the Saanich Peninsula but a new book by a local historian proves that even the quietest communities can have dramatic histories.

Wallace George du Temple, a resident of Ardmore who has had connections to the area most of his life, co-penned Ardmore: Home, Community and Golf with Edward R. Ostachowicz, a past-president of the Ardmore Golf Club.

The book zones in on the history of the area beginning as far back as to examining the geological forces that shaped the landscape.

The 200-page colour paperback also delves deep into the history of the golf course and club and some of the more

dramatic events that moulded “Ardmore was always an the small community over the anchor for me,” du Temple said. years.

Ernie Skinner and his family have been coming to Sidneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Star Cinema for years and when he heard of their effort to raise money to stay open, he just had to help.

Skinner is the owner of the award-winning Market on Yates in downtown Victoria and he lives in North Saanich. He was in town Oct. 11 to donate $10,000 to the local movie houseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

drive to raise $200,000 to help modernize their facility with a new, digital projector. More and more films have converted to digital-only format, so to stay open, the business had to adapt. They have been asking the community for help and Skinner and his family, for one, are happy to do so. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been here many times,â&#x20AC;? he said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been able to step out of reality for a while, watching a movie.â&#x20AC;?

bit of a throwback to the simpler, smaller theatres that once existed in many communities. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If Sidney is to lose this bit of itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s identity, it will be a lessening of a place,â&#x20AC;? he explained. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Small business people here really make the difference.â&#x20AC;?

Skinner should know, he operates a grocery store in downtown Victoria and faced competition from larger stores, warehouse operations and malls. He said itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a challenge and thinks small business can survive it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are the customers that still want a smaller shopping experience.â&#x20AC;?

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s there that his son-in-law Darryl Hein

(married to his daughter Christine) had a small-town experience.

When he attended the Star Cinema a few years back with his children, he forgot to bring payment. The theatre staff said no problem and got them into the movie â&#x20AC;&#x201D; popcorn and all â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and trusted him enough to return later to pay the bill. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s family-friendly and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been coming here for a while,â&#x20AC;? said Christine, who lives in Brentwood Bay. The donation brought the Star Cinemaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fund-raising total to $115,723.95 as of Thursday, Oct. 11.

Entry-level earnings start at $30.79/hour to $40.42/hour.

Panthers win two nail-biters Devon MacKenzie News staff

The Peninsula Panthers sealed the deal on two close games over the weekend against Parksville’s Oceanside Generals and the Comox Glacier Kings.

On Friday, Oct. 12 the Panthers took the win against the Generals in a tight 4-3 game that wasn’t decided until forward Zack Smith bounced one from behind the net off Generals goaltender Kiefer Giroux with 4:34 remaining in the third period.

Also hitting the score sheet for the Panthers in Friday’s game against the Generals were team captain Patrick Croome, Cole

Golka and Cody Allison.

Golka added two assists and was named the game’s first star while Allison was awarded with the second star and Croome the third. Goaltender Justin Samra blocked 18 of 21 shots in collecting the win.

On Saturday, Oct. 13 the team ventured North to Comox to take on the Glacier Kings who were riding an eight-game winning streak. Eighteen-year-old Cody Allison scored the only goal for the Panthers but it proved to be enough as the Panthers squeaked out a 1-0 win.

“Yes, winning feels good,” said Coach Rob Armstrong after the game in Comox. “I’m proud of

the guys and their relentless puck pursuit and how they managed the puck under pressure.

The kids are having a good laugh at the back of the bus, and (it feels like) a true team is being formed.”

The Panthers hope to extend their own winning streak tomorrow, Oct. 18, when they travel to Nanaimo to take on the Buccaneers.

The team will be back home Friday to welcome the Campbell River Storm for their first visit of the year. The puck drops at the Panorama Recreation Centre at 7:30 p.m. reporter@peninsula newsreview.com
