VicPD 2.0 How the police beat crime with social media tools Danielle Pope News staff

T

he Victoria Police Department is far from deploying robocops to patrol our streets, but changes in social media and new technologies have played a huge role in how the force now fights

crime.

From Twitter and Facebook to Pinterest and Reddit, VicPD has taken on a multitude of new platforms to build community engagement and keep an ear to the ground. And, whether its officers recording safety videos for their YouTube channel or the affiliated Greater Victoria Crime Stoppers gleaning anonymous tips online, technology has changed the way police forces around the world are doing business.

“It is tough to tell, on my end, how these tools have impacted crime rates, but we do see examples where people are tweeting us with updates of things they see,” says VicPD spokesperson and social media officer Const.

Mike Russell.

Social media isn’t lighthearted fun for the force, however. With accounts of people now facing criminal charges due to publicly documented events like the 2011 Stanley Cup riots, digital tools are becoming more important than ever before.

Historic Tudor House goes up in flames Cause of blaze yet to be determined, says fire chief Daniel Palmer News staff

The cause of a Tuesday morning fire that ripped through an iconic Esquimalt building likely won't be known for weeks.

The 109-year-old Tudor House pub was swallowed by flames within minutes around 2:30 a.m., thanks to its wooden frame and lack of modern fire-stopping infrastructure, said Esquimalt Fire Chief Dave Ward.

“Members of the navy and military have been attending (Tudor House) for functions for many years so it will be missed,” Ward said.

Fire investigators are working to determine the cause of the fire, which was documented by many Esquimalt residents in the area.

Firefighters from Esquimalt and CFB Esquimalt work to get a fire under control at the Tudor House. Fire ripped through the building early Tuesday. Fire officials have yet to determine a cause for the fire.

City mulls harbour airport deal Harbour users say Transport Canada should retain control of Inner Harbour Daniel Palmer News staff

Victoria’s primary seaplane operator believes Transport Canada shouldn’t give up control of the Inner Harbour airport to a local port authority or the City of Victoria.

Yesterday, Victoria city council discussed an offer from Transport Canada to engage in “informal” discussions about ownership and operation of the Victoria Harbour airport. The waterway is one of only 18 airports and the only water aerodrome in Can-

ada still under direct federal ownership. “(The Inner Harbour) works like a Swiss watch,” said Randy Wright, Harbour Air Seaplanes vice-president. “This particular airport is not an asphalt runway. We have ferries, boats, whale watching, all sort of things going on in this harbour. …

There are too many agendas for an authority to come in. The costs are already too high, and who’s going to bear those added costs?”

Transport Canada spokeswoman Jillian Glover stressed discussions with the city are only exploratory in nature, and any agreements would be subject to public process.

“Transport Canada would like to determine, through this informal discussion process, whether it is still the most appropriate entity to own and operate these airports, as recent expe-

Dozens of international street performers are taking over Victoria for the next 10 days during the third annual Victoria International Buskers Festival.

The free festival includes world-class break dancers, acrobatic spectacles, stage plays and mimes on seven stages throughout the downtown core.

“We have more Quebec groups this year with performers who have worked with Cirque de Soleil,” said executive director John Vickers.

“We’re presenting well over one thousand hours in programming. It really is a spectacular amount of busker talent.”

Events run until 10 p.m. daily through July 28.

Acting mayor Pam Madoff said councillors chose to move the letter to a public agenda after receiving it in camera last month.

“We’ve not met or talked with Transport Canada,” Madoff said before the meeting. “We’ve simply talked about process. I expect there will be lots of questions coming from council.”

Coun. Ben Isitt said the discussion represents a once-in-a-generation opportunity to take responsibility for the harbour airport.

“If done right, landing fees from aircraft movements can generate revenues for communities, providing financial benefits alongside the benefit of accountable local control of transportation systems.” dpalmer@vicnews.com

Accessing community lab services on the South Island will be trickier for some, as Vancouver Island Health Authority announced this week it will cut hours at three labs and end home visits to collect blood and specimens.

The cost-cutting measures are being made in outpatient services to “redirect the focus on areas of higher use,” said VIHA spokesperson Suzanne Germain.

The move has shocked members of the Hospital Employees’ Union, who say the action is in direct response to the province’s decision to slash spending on front-line health services.

“Of course we are concerned about how these changes will disrupt staff, but many others will be impacted – especially the patients who really can’t make it into a lab because they are elderly or frail,” said Mike Old, union spokesperson.

Satellite community labs at Keating X Road, Brentwood and Admirals Walk, which were formerly open from 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. will close at noon on weekdays, effective Aug. 8, and the Admirals and Keating locations will no longer open on Saturday mornings.

VIHA will also halt all home collection services as of Sept. 1, though visits will be replaced by representatives from LifeLabs, said Germain, who added that many days the satellite labs only serve five or fewer clients at each location.

While the move will affect approximately 3.5 full-time positions, no layoffs will occur. Instead, staff is expected to be redistributed to some of the 15 medical lab positions currently vacant on the South Island.

Union secretary-business manager Bonnie Pearson said the cutbacks are the beginning of “a long summer and fall of program and service cuts that will negatively impact the accessibility and quality of health care services.”

Germain said that while the decision to decrease services is rarely a happy one, it will save money. news@mondaymag.com

Door open for McLoughlin talks: mayor Daniel Palmer News staff

Esquimalt’s mayor wants to sit down with the Capital Regional District and discuss a way forward for McLoughlin Point’s proposed wastewater treatment plant, now that B.C.’s environment minister has chosen to stay out of the debate.

On Monday, Esquimalt council rejected a rezoning request from the CRD for McLoughlin Point and instead passed its own bylaw. The township wants the CRD to pay $55,000 a year to an amenity fund and barge all of its construction materials to the site, among other amenity requests.

“We all have concerns about this whole process, but we have left the door open for discussion with CRD and if they’re willing to take a look at the pos-

sibilities, we would welcome the discussion,” said Mayor Barb Desjardins. “For the province to intercede at this point, it would be premature.”

On Tuesday, Environment Minister Mary Polak said she hopes both the CRD and Esquimalt resolve the controversy between themselves.

“The idea of intervening in a matter that should be solved at a local level is not something we take very lightly,” Polak said. dpalmer@vicnews.com

CRIME fiGhtiNG

Unlike the urgent nature of Twitter, Facebook has become the force’s main platform for posting all general information,

FaCEbook: tool oF ChoICE

including updates and YouTube videos.

VicPD also receives more recruitment questions on Facebook than through

any other means, though nearly half of queries are misguided residents looking for the Victoria State Police in Australia.

How the police use social media to keep crime down in Victoria

Danielle Pope Reporting

T

hree boys from Sidney have criminal records now, thanks to a few moments of bad judgment and the social media that proved their guilt.

The 16-year-old and two 17-year-old Vancouver Island residents, who cannot be named under the Youth Act, were some of the 325 suspects so far under investigation for participating in the 2011 Stanley Cup riots, and three of the 149 people charged with criminal offences – largely due to the evidence of bystanders who posted countless YouTube videos and Facebook photos of the event.

The highly profiled role that social media played in the riots could foreshadow much of what’s to come as social innovation transforms the way police forces around the world respond to crime.

But while the Victoria Police Department is far from deploying robocops to patrol the streets, it hasn’t sidestepped the change, says VicPD spokesperson and social media officer Const. Mike Russell.

In fact, VicPD is leading its own charge into a more impressive social presence than ever before.

“People are feeling more connected, and it’s not that we have real numbers on how social media has changed how crime is reported — it’s more in people’s perception,” says Russell. “Any tool to get into a conversation with the public is useful, and it allows us to work together.”

While many may already know the department is developing a solid presence on Twitter and Facebook,

others may not guess that VicPD has its own YouTube channel, Reddit account, even Pinterest site. And while connecting with the community is all part of the mission, says Russell, another part is building a presence that people can see and respond to.

“It is tough to tell, on my end, how these tools have impacted crime rates, but we do see examples where people are tweeting us with updates of things they see, and people can email reports in now, which has made a difference,” he says.

It isn’t lighthearted fun when it comes to how the force uses social tools.

One platform called Crime Reports offers an up-to-date way for residents to track crime in their communities.

VicPD signed up for the U.S.-provided service in 2010, and merged geographic information systems technology with police records management data to make it easy for the public to see crime trends in their neighbourhoods through the VicPD website.

With an ability to monitor all reported activity every 24 hours and issue alerts to residents who sign up for the service, it’s almost like having an officer in your computer.

Because VicPD is required to scrub the data due to privacy information laws, it doesn’t list sexual assaults or suicides – but it is one way that locals can follow break-ins, thefts or other incidents in an area.

On a similar scale, Greater Victoria Crime Stoppers is a community, media and police co-operative program designed to “involve the public in the fight against crime.” The anonymitybased group regularly posts online a new Crime of the Week, as well as mug shots of individuals wanted by local law enforcement.

“Web tips are responsible for at least 50 per cent of all our tips now, and it is always increasing,” says VicPD Const. Ann Zimmerman, Crime Stoppers police co-ordinator.

Danielle Pope/News staff

Victoria Police Department spokesperson and social media officer Const. Mike Russell sits at his computer to display the way technology has changed for police forces around Canada.

tWIttER: tWEEts tRaCk CRIMInals anD a FEW lost souls If you follow @vicpdcanada, you already know the force tweets about everything from criminals-at-large to nifty photos of Victoria.

While Twitter is predominantly used as a way to engage the public, it has also become the No. 1 tool to generate buzz on missing persons and, in some cases, track them down.

Thanks to hundreds of posts and re-tweets by VicPD’s network, the force was able to find the 90-year-old woman who recently went missing in downtown Victoria.

“The phones have really died down. The whole point of our organization is anonymity, but people feel even safer writing in.”

Although these tools have aided VicPD’s efforts, Russell is quick to clarify that the force doesn’t have secret rights into the back end of Facebook or other social media sites – a warrant is still needed for any investigative work,

YoutubE: a PlaCE FoR InFoRMatIon VicPD’s YouTube channel is the place that curious residents can find information on everything from recorded media announcements to specialized videos filmed by officers.

Recent efforts include the Coffee Shop Safety campaign geared to make people aware of the dangers of leaving laptops unguarded.

PIntEREst: lost anD FounD You won’t find VicPD pinning favourite wedding dress shots, but the force does use Pinterest for storing and posting photos through two main pages: Victoria Police and Is This Yours?

The site has helped countless people reclaim stolen property, with the most recent reuniting a snatched camera and photo card from a wedding.

REDDIt: a PlaCE FoR oPEn DEbatE As social media officer Const. Mike Russell describes, a lot of the viewers of Reddit are “the college crowd, and not necessarily pro-police.” However, Russell has found most people are interested in taking the time to debate issues through the site. VicPD uses Reddit to post information, like its recent Canada Day backpack search policy, so that people can read it for themselves.

which is where officers like detective Mark Knoop, VicPD’s new computer forensics specialist, comes in.

Still, when it comes to publicly viewable material, like the social videos and photos that allowed the Insurance Corporation of B.C. (ICBC) to file a suit seeking more than $500,000 in damages from 46 people charged or convicted in

the 2011 Stanley Cup riots, Russell says it’s wise to focus on common sense.

“What it comes down to, is that there are a lot more eyes on the street, and people are often willing to help in this way,” he says.

“Not everyone is comfortable with getting involved on a physical level, but so many people have smart phones and a presence online now,

and they are willing to share what they see.” news@mondaymag.com

OUR VIEW

Cost cutting wounds seniors Everyone wants to keep health care costs down, but we have to take a second look at the Vancouver Island Health Authority’s decision to cut hours at community labs and cut out home visits for those who are unable to access labs on their own.

Years ago, our health care system began to move away from the attitude that institutionalization is best. New mothers who previously spent a week in hospital after giving birth are now sent home in hours rather than days. Advances in surgical procedures such as gall bladder removal and even the insertion of stents in the heart now have patients heading home in less than a week.

Cutting costs by amalgamating lab services might make good financial sense, but it doesn’t make sense when we want to promote good, preventative medical care.

There are many more support services available to help keep our senior population at home longer, under the care of family members or even under their own care where possible, in order to keep our health care system from being overburdened.

Removing services that allow easier access to health care is a start down a slippery slope to a decline in the overall health of our senior population that we don’t care to see.

As the “sandwich generation” works to put kids through university while taking care of elderly parents, the availability of home lab technician visits or weekend lab hours is just one more service that allows those of all generations to maintain good health.

Seniors are the people that helped build our health care system. Centralizing lab services or leaving them to the private sector only helps to reinforce the belief the system is now abandoning them.

The Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada, in its Make Health Last campaign, states that Canadians are living longer, but not necessarily healthier. It says on average, we spend our final 10 years dealing with sickness and disease.

However, our health care decisions can have an impact on how healthy our final years are, and the services we are able to access will be a big part of that overall picture.

With our quickly aging population, VIHA must begin now to look for ways to accommodate, rather than alienate our seniors.

What it comes down to is a cost-saving versus lifesaving decision for VIHA.

Soon after, CRD chair Alastair Bryson politely declined the opportunity to dismiss Blackwell, expressing his “full confidence in (her role) in the CRD.” After denying the CRD’s proposal on Monday, Esquimalt issued its own plea to the province, this time asking that the government place all funding for sewage treatment on hold until an independent audit of the entire project is completed.

Should the municipality’s request go unheard, Saanich Coun. and longtime sewage treatment critic Vic Derman plans to bring forward a similar motion for consideration by the CRD board, demanding “an extensive, independent review of the current project” before any further work is done.

In its selection of the Viewfield sludge plant site, the CRD ignored public opinion until the last minute.

In the rush to break ground at McLoughlin Point, it ignored Esquimalt council and again dismissed public outcry. Even if the CRD succeeds in appealing to the province to force sewage treatment forward in its current form, this week’s events have made it clear that opposition will continue to grow until the district finds some much-needed humility.

Plenty of benefits to new Hydro investments Re: Get ready for Hydro rate hikes (B.C. Views, July 10).

While NDP energy critic John Horgan asserts there is no business case for a nation building project like the Northwest Transmission Line, a line that will bring power to a huge part of the province currently running off diesel generators, our government believes investments such as this are exactly what B.C. Hydro should be doing.

This project will open up world-class mineral deposits and support new mines, like Red Chris, one of the top 10 coppergold deposits in the world.

In fact, the Mining Association of B.C. estimates the line could attract more than $15 billion in mining investment, creating up to 10,000 jobs and generating $300 million in annual tax revenues. None of this happens unless we build the line to provide the power these mines need.

We need to ensure we have a diverse grid that can provide reliable power today, and into the future. That’s why we continue to support new, cleaner sources of power such as wind and run of river. Do these sources produce power at a higher cost than what our heritage assets do? Of course they do.

Like most other things, it costs more today to produce power than it did decades ago. But these sources are cleaner than alternatives such as coal or gas and less expensive than building brand new hydroelectric dams.

We are investing in projects that are powering our needs today and ensuring we will have the power we need for our future. The unprecedented opportunity in liquefied natural gas and other growing sectors such as mining must be supported with stable, secure power. This is what we are building.

You can’t make these kinds of legacy

investments that will benefit all British Columbians without putting pressure on rates. Contrary to some reports, B.C. Hydro is managing its capital projects within its planned budget. There are a couple of projects over budget but most are under budget.

I have been very clear that my mandate, as given to me by the premier, is to minimize rate increases while continuing to make historic investments in Hydro’s infrastructure to grow our economy. I am committed to accomplishing this goal.

Bill Bennett Minister of Energy and Mines

Readers respond: Electric vehicle subsidies, thoughts on being Canadian End electric car subsidies Re: Get ready for Hydro rate hikes (B.C. Views, July 10).

Tom Fletcher’s article reiterates what we have been told for some time.

A large part of the future B.C. Hydro rate increase is caused by the fact that expansion of generating facilities delivers new power at a rate higher than today’s rates.

However, the government is bribing people to switch to electric cars, contributing to consumption increases which will cause rate increases for us all.

Provincial consumption is also high because although the E-Plus contracts with residential customers expired decades ago, the government is choosing to grandfather the “half-price electric heat” offer for political reasons. Also, some large government buildings are still being heated this way.

At the same time, the minister is telling us that we are producing more natural gas than we need, so we should be consuming large amounts of energy to compress it and ship it overseas.

The first step should be to switch to natural gas-powered cars and natural gas heating for almost all homes and large government buildings.

The grant money for electric car purchases should be diverted to incentives for this move.

Right now, electric cars are causing the burning of fuels at distant power plants anyway, because that is where our “last watt” comes from.

There’s a danger of forgetting our past

I read with interest the recent columns by Simon Nattrass (Rights under attack on Canada Day) and

D. Granlich’s response to it (Columnist’s portrayal of Canada was ‘disgusting’).

Both raise the interesting issue of interpretations of Canadian history and the ways in which we define ourselves as Canadians (often linked to ideas of who we are which may or may not be substantiated).

While we all like to feel good about who we are as Canadians, we must acknowledge that elements of Canadian history are, indeed, not pretty. There’s ample evidence of past (and present) racism, poor treatment of indigenous peoples and Asian immigrants, women, labour organizers, etc.

I believe there is an obligation to learn about and acknowledge our past, for better or worse, so that we can learn from it. How are we to become better Canadians unless we learned what happened (and why it happened) in the past?

When students take my Canadian history classes,

they are often shocked and they wonder aloud why they never learned this history in school. They want to know. They need to know. We all need to know.

Occasionally I will meet someone who suggests that indigenous peoples should simply “get on with it.” I see this as an opportunity for a “teaching moment” because I realize most people do not understand the aboriginal land issue in B.C. I normally ask if they know that Canada amended the Indian Act in 1927 to prohibit First Nations people from hiring lawyers to pursue land claim cases. People don’t know that – and they should. I could also enlighten them on other ways the Canadian government removed land from indigenous peoples.

Sometimes I come across people who use labels to suggest that another’s argument is ideologically based. My favourite is “you liberals.” Another is “Marxist apologist.” My

So, in conclusion, I see no harm in Canadians accepting their past, warts and all, and learning from it.

When we try to define ourselves as Canadians, let’s really look at who Canadians were and are, instead of embracing some mythological idea of who we are. The danger comes when we do not know, acknowledge and accept the past.

Reversing the Canadian brain drain play park

in yourhood r neighbou

Over the past decade there have been many studies published on the disconnect between children and nature.

Organized activities, screen time and busy lives are all competing for the child’s time and they are not seeing the benefits that come when you play in nature. Greater creativity, coordination, balance, concentration and socialization skills are some of the many benefits children gain by playing in nature.

These studies are no surprise to us at Saanich Parks and Recreation. For over 20 years we have been offering summer camps in playgrounds around Saanich. Our Summer Neighbourhood Playground Program, or SNPP as it is known, was designed to be an affordable option for daycamps while keeping the children active in the outdoors. There is a weekly registration or daily drop in.

With seven locations spread across Saanich, SNPP is also a great way for neighbours and friends to play together close to where they live.

With an overall theme for each summer, the staff in each park build in activities, games and stories each week that lead to a gathering for the finale at summers end.

If you are still looking for something for your child to do this summer why not give SNPP a try!

Call your local Saanich recreation centre or go to www.teen.saanich. ca and clip the SNPP link for all program information.

Summer intern program a means to attract foreign research scientists

Biotechnology student Jorge Peña, left, shows off a compound that holds promise in terms of shutting down cancerous cells at the genetic level, with engineering student Anup Daté looking on. Peña and Daté are two of 14 foreign students working at the University of Victoria this summer under the Mitacs-Globalink program.

Edward Hill News staff

For Jorge Peña and Anup Daté, a summer at the University of Victoria provided hands-on training in high-tech research, and a chance to explore a scenic new city. For Canada, it’s a 12-week opportunity to convince the brightest young minds from emerging economies to relocate here.

Peña, a 23-year-old biotechnology student from the Monterrey Institute of Technology in Mexico, tackled cutting-edge research in epigenetics, a field that holds promise in cancer diagnostics and treatment. Daté, 21, studies engineering at the Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay, and advanced techniques in capturing large amounts of waste heat to allow far more efficient heating of buildings.

They are two of 14 science and engineering interns from Brazil, China, India, Mexico, Turkey or Vietnam who attended UVic this summer, and of 280 in Canada, under the Mitacs-Globalink program.

However, Josh (who it turns out is the Chef) saw us and quickly found us three comfortable seats, brought some drinks and appetizers which made waiting a most pleasant experience.

Returning to work or school after having a child is never easy, and finding someone trustworthy to watch your precious little one makes it even harder.

When Metchosin mom Wendy Foster decided to return to work, she had a tough time finding a daycare with a part-time spot. Even after finding a facility that met her needs, Foster had to get her mother watch to her son for four months before a spot opened up.

And her mother wasn’t keen on providing the childcare on an ongoing basis. “It was difficult,”

Foster said.

Now her two children Erik, 4, and Callie, 2, both attend Sunshine Group Daycare in Langford twice a week.

“We like how much outside time they get and that there is no TV,” said Foster “With part-time it’s tough changing a day and there isn’t a lot of flexibility.”

The group daycare – as opposed to a home-based daycare – was more appealing to Foster, as the childcare providers work in pairs. “I just know how I am (with kids) and it’s easy to get frustrated.

SOLID HANDSCRAPED MAPLE $4.99/SF

With two (care providers) they can take a break if they need to,” Foster said.

It depends on square-footage and other factors, but many homebased daycares operate with a single caregiver.

Langford resident Gerry St. Cyr jokes his wife found his daughter Katie’s daycare, but said the couple asked friends about their daycare experiences and shopped around. In the end Katie ended up at a group centre.

“We chose a group daycare because we’ve heard stories of kids

to purchase the small, blue and white shop vac, which she’d discovered amid the appliances. Her love for it was immediate as she pulled it along by its cord, assuming somehow, it was a leash.

“R2D2” became the latest pet and Sierra and her friend quickly set about washing it – “No, you need to use a hose, R2D2 may not go in the bath with you” – dressing it (how do you dress a shop vac?) and incorporating it into games.

Although it took up a bit of space in the bedroom, I confess I was a bit gleeful about this pet, who did not have to be de-fleaed or let out at 3 a.m. But I should have foreseen the future. Eventually, Sierra became so attached, R2D2 needed to go places with us and, of course, I was left to care for it. Hence the memorable vision of me walking through a park, pulling a shop vac or, the very worst: the day R2D2 had to watch Sierra perform in the school play – sitting on the seat next to me.

Eventually, R2D2 went the way of Eggy – slowly moved out of sight and eventually out of mind. And later, of course, the girls became busy with school and sports, and started adopting boys instead (which, it turned out, were far more complicated than the good ole days of feeding, cleaning and walking pets).

In the meantime, I forged ahead, dodging various stray cats and SPCA dogs, and all-the-while reminding the girls that goldfish are really, really cool. ●

HAFI adapts homes for B.C. seniors and people with disabilities

Brenda has always been an active woman. However, recent health issues including osteoarthritis in her left knee and losing kidney function have slowed her down. Her mobility is limited and she is now on dialysis three days a week. To adjust to her changed circumstances, Brenda sought help with her daily living activities.

Part of that help came from the Home Adaptations for Independence (HAFI) program offered through BC Housing. Launched in January 2012, the HAFI program provides financial assistance to help eligible low-income seniors and people with disabilities adapt their homes so they can continue to live independently.

Brenda applied for a new walk-in bathtub because she couldn’t safely get out of the tub on her own.

Walk-in tubs include additional safety measures such as anti-slip floors, grab bars, and a very low step in.

Home adaptations may also include handrails in halls or stairs, ramps for

easier access, easy-to-reach work and storage areas in the kitchen, lever handles on doors or faucets, walk-in showers, and bathtub grab bars and seats.

Brenda is a strong advocate for the program and has even shared HAFI brochures with nurses in the renal unit where she undergoes dialysis.

If you or someone you know is having difficulty performing day-to-day activities safely and independently – the HAFI program may be able to help.

Since the program began, more than 300 households completed renovations with HAFI financial assistance, making it possible for seniors and people with disabilities to continue to live in the safety and comfort of their home.

Victoria Family Hunting for the perfect daycare continued from 11 in private daycares watching TV all day,” St. Cyr said.

Fernwood resident Samantha Walrafen is on the hunt for a daycare for her three–year–old Luke and six–month old Mary–Stephanie.

“I am just starting to ask around, but it’s hard to find a part-time place,” said Walrafen, who is about to start a master’s program at the University of Victoria.

“I want a daycare worker that really understands attachment parenting and that the children get a lot of one-one one adult time. I will probably look for a home-based daycare because of these values.”

Kim Coy has operated both homebased and group daycare centres. “I tell parents they need to ask themselves, ‘Do you feel comfortable in the environment on your first impression?’”

Coy owns Sunshine Group Daycare and operates three centres on the West Shore for about 150 children. She runs programs that range from infants to after school care programs.

“Bring your child to the daycare when you go and look at it,” Coy said.

It’s important to check for cleanliness and ask about the longevity and training of the staff. If a centre has children of varying ages playing together, Coy suggests looking at the toys and making sure there aren’t pieces a smaller child may choke on.

Coy noted that infant care is exceptionally difficult to find in Greater

Victoria. “There is no profit in it,” Coy said, due to the required ratio of one care provider for every four babies.

Once a child is three, the daycare ratio is increased to eight children per care provider.

In terms of finding a daycare spot, the easiest time to get a child into a new centre is during July, August and September, when children are moving into kindergarten and vacating spots.

The general rule is the sooner the better for finding a daycare.

For a home-based daycare, the ratio is a maximum of eight children, spanning from infant to five years old. Some home daycares are licensed through Vancouver Island Health Authority and others are not.

“A home daycare needs to be licensed if you have three or more children not related by blood,” said Kim Bruce, VIHA regional manager of community care facilities.

Each licensed daycare is required to adhere to requirements for square footage, safety and having an outdoor play area. Daycare operators are required to have First Aid certification and take other courses and training. Licenced daycares are also checked for such details as the hot water temperature.

“You have to find what fits for you.

Some parents want more structure, and others prefer it to be more low key,” Bruce said. ● charla@goldstreamgazette.com

This Family’s Life

Q&A

Fairfield resident Kristine Bresee and her partner Nate Poetker have a 20-monthold daughter named Rosemary. They are getting married in September and are enjoying planning the wedding. Her job is to care for children and is working at the Esquimalt Recreation Centre doing the summer camps. Bresee loves to practice asanas (yoga postures) and being outside as much as possible, camping, hiking and listening to the wind blow through the trees.

Q A

How do you find time for you, in addition to your role as mom?

I do my best to find time for practicing asanas daily. I enjoy learning more about postures and proper alignment from a teacher once a week. Also, when Rosie is busy in her sand/water table, I do enjoy resting and relaxing in the sun. Work is also time away from my mom role!

Q A

What are you reading right now?

What do you read with your daughter?

Right now I am reading Respectful Parents Respectful Kids - 7 Keys to Turn Family Conflict into Co-operation.

This book incorporates a lot of useful information from Marshall Rosenberg’s nonviolent communication.

SHAron Tiffin/neWS STAff

Kristine Bresee, left Nate Poetker and their daughter, 20-month-old Rosemary in their home in Fairfield.

I read to Rosie every day. Recently her favourites are The Okay Book and The Feelings Book by Todd Parr, her summer sticker book and an old book of mine called My Favouite Thing by Gyo Fujikawa.

Q A

What is your family’s favourite activity to share together?

Our favourite time together is when we are outdoors. Hiking, climbing over trees and hills, picking berries/tomatoes/ kale etc. at the farm and enjoying the sand at the seaside.

Q A

The part of your day you most look forward to?

I most look forward to going home to Rosie after work and getting a big hug from her. As well as just before bed, having cuddle time with Nate and drifting off to bed. ●

“Half the time I don’t know where the music comes from. Sometimes when I write a song, its my subconscious says what I want to say.

“I suppose I’m an analytical person and I end up writing about people, about what they do and why. I’m trying to write more abstractly, but whatever you write about, people think it’s about relationships.”

Somewhat shoehorned into the folk genre, she describes her sound as alternativecountry, with elements of folk with an edge, in the vein of her influences: Jeff Tweedy, Kathleen Edwards, Fleetwood Mac and Credence Clearwater Revival.

Macpherson has had enough exposure that people are recognizing her on the street in Victoria, or in one case on the ferry, which she admits is an experience she doesn’t expect. Still, for Macpherson the cycle of performing and writing needs to be nearly constant to build a career that doesn’t necessarily pay all the bills yet.

“It’s a balance between performing and doing things to keep up a presence,” she says. “It’s challenging.”

Live n’ Unsigned also features Rifflandia veterans The Washboard Union, the teendriven Royal Canadians and Emily Spiller, a 2011 Vancouver Island Female Vocalist of the Year, for the second incarnation of a show that prides itself on selecting musicians based on their live performance skills, not Facebook “likes,” says by Burley Music, the show’s production company.

“We’re all pretty varied in our having been discovered-ness,” Macpherson says.”It’s cool.

I’m really looking forward to it.”

P

erforming in a steady stream of festivals and writing new material, Steph Macpherson is a busy artist, busy enough that certain details can fly under the radar. Details like the fact she is headliner for a show, in this case the Live n’ Unsigned Summer Folk Showcase in Victoria.

“I just found out,” she said laughing during an interview last week. The 20-something self-described altcountry musician has been on a tear over the past two years. She released her first full-length album Bells & Whistles with Cordova Bay Records last year, toured and showcased her music across Western Canada into the U.S., and is winning boatloads of accolades from the music industry, and more importantly, the fickle fanbase of indie music.

Raised in Gordon Head and a graduate of Mount Doug secondary, Macpherson has her roots and influences firmly planted in Victoria and Vancouver Island. An active songwriter and touring musician since 2009, she is on the trajectory from emerging artist to emerging stardom, making a headlining gig at Live ‘n Unsigned less of a surprise and more of an obvious choice.

“I’ve been performing all my life. At four or five years old my parents had me in voice lessons,” Macpherson says.

“I was very vocal as a child, good at making sounds. Good on my parents for putting me in voice lessons.”

Vancouver Island’s largest outdoor visual art event celebrates 26 years

C

olour will be flowing on Saturday, July 20, as the 26th annual TD Art Gallery Paint-In brushes artists together again for a palette full of talent.

This year, Moss Street will play host to more than 180 featured professional and emerging artists from Victoria and surrounding areas. For anyone who hasn’t seen the community outreach initiative before, the strip allows artists to take their studios to the street to display and produce their work between Fort Street and Dallas Road.

The Paint-In is more than just a free gallery to walk around with the family outside, it doubles as an art awareness and education event that sees up to 35,000 visitors each year.

“This event really demystifies and encourages more people to try their hand at being creative,” says Maryellen Threadkell, Paint-In co-ordinator. “So many people have not experienced the most wonderful of learning situations when it comes to art marking, maybe in primary school, and they think that they can’t do these things. This is an opportunity to see different kinds of art, learn the processes that working artists use, and many [people] sign up for classes that these artists hold in their own studios.”

With a jury picking the final artists out of hundreds who apply each year by April 1, the event also allows participants to access a receptive audience (yes, you can purchase right from the sidewalk). This year, a mobile life-drawing class will offer models, sawhorses, paper and charcoal to anyone who wants to sit down and draw their way to fame.

“People can walk around and really see the difference between carving soap stone, marble and wood. And every paint and medium imaginable is on the street,” says Threadkell. “Honestly, the Paint-In gets better every year.”

More than 200 volunteers and participating artists dedicate at least 4,000 hours to make the annual community exhibition possible. While the show stretches from 11 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. along Moss, the Art Gallery of Greater Victoria hosts a by-donation open house from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. at 1040 Moss St., with a food and beverage garden from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. and music from Kumbia from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m.

Also catch the featured “New Extreme Student Art Exhibit,” a collaboration of works from middle school and high school students around the region, at Duttons & Co. Real Estate Ltd. (394 Moss St.) from July 16 to 25.

CONTINUING

★★★½ BEFORE MIDNIGHT -(Empire Uni 4) Richard Linklater’s third installment of the charming – and chatty – love-denied story of Jesse (Ethan Hawke) and Celine (Julie Delpy) has lots of surprises … not least of which is that the starcrossed lovers have finally hooked up. Between the atmospheric Greek locale and the well-crafted dialogue this is a grand cine-treat for those already bored with the summer’s superhero blockbusters.

THE CROODS - (Caprice) A prehistoric family taking an unexpected “road trip” into a magical land is the plot of this whimsical animated charmer (which has been getting great reviews). With the vocal talents of Emma Stone, Nicolas Cage, and Ryan Reynolds.

EPIC - (Caprice) In this animated family adventure a teenage girl is magically transported to a deep forest setting where she bands together with a wacky crew of critters to help battle a terrifyingly dark force that is threatening their world … and ours. Note: moves from the Westshore to the Caprice on Fri.

★★ NOW YOU SEE ME -(Empire 6/Caprice) The FBI and Interpol combine forces to battle a clever crew of Las Vegas illusionists who seem to be robbing banks … while simultaneously performing for a casino audience.

Despite a great cast that includes Morgan Freeman, Mark Ruffalo, and Jesse Eisenberg, this is a flabby caper film with little magic to it. ★★½ PACIFIC RIM -(Odeon/ SilverCity/Westshore/Empire Uni 4) Guillermo del Toro (Hellboy, Pan’s Labyrinth) helms this Transformersish epic about monsters that attack Earth and are opposed by giant robots controlled by human “pilots.”

This is a skilfully directed and highly imaginative tribute to all those schlocky Godzilla movies of old.

See review in the August Monday Magazine on newsstands now. ★★★½ STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS -(Roxy, 7:00/Caprice) J.J. Abrams retains the helm of the rebooted Star Trek franchise with this entertaining and engaging tale about a youthful Captain Kirk (Chris Pine) tackling a seemingly unstoppable one-man weapon of mass destruction. With Bruce Greenwood, Zoe Saldana, and a sinister Benedict Cumberbatch. ★★★ THIS IS THE END -(Odeon/ Caprice) In this truly whacked comedy, stars such as Seth Rogen, Jay Baruchel and Jonah Hill play themselves as they party at James Franco’s house – only to find themselves confronting a terrifying, demon-filled apocalypse. Although a bit oversold and rather slapdash, this is very funny (and very rude). ★★ WHITE HOUSE DOWN -(Caprice) As if Barack Obama didn’t have enough problems, the White House falls under attack – again! – by terrorists, and there’s only one off-duty cop (Channing Tatum) on the inside who is left alive and able to give the bad guys a thumping.

Basically, this is lots of good actors slumming in a cheesy-fun flick that slowly becomes jaw-droppingly corny and preposterous. ★★★ WORLD WAR Z -(Empire 6, SilverCity/Caprice) Countries topple and armies shatter in the face of a zombie pandemic, as a shaggy-haired Brad Pitt tries to save the world. This is an intense and intelligent movie that uses zombies to embody the more plausible horror of a SARS-like threat to the planet.

(Strip) 120713

RED 2 -(Empire 6/SilverCity/Empire Uni 4/Westshore) Newcomer Anthony Hopkins joins Helen Mirren, John Malkovich, Bruce Willis, and Mary-Louise Parker as they reprise their roles as retired CIA “black ops” agents marked for death by their own agency. Sure the original was silly, but it was also a clever black comedy that was elevated by sly dialogue and killer performances. Started Thurs.

TURBO -(Odeon/SilverCity/ Westshore) The latest from Dreamworks Animation is a family comedy about an ordinary garden snail who acquires magic powers – and the chance to achieve his dream of winning the Indy 500. With the voices of Ryan Reynolds, Paul Giamatti, Maya Rudolph, and Samuel L. Jackson. Started Thurs.

R.I.P.D. -(Odeon/SilverCity/Empire Uni 4/Westshore) Jeff Bridges and Ryan Reynolds star in a silly-looking action comedy, clearly inspired by Men In Black, about a special force of “undead cops” who patrol the Earth looking for weird monsters to exterminate. Starts Fri. THE CONJURING -(Empire 6/ SilverCity/Westshore) An elite cast including Vera Farmiga, Patrick Wilson, and Lili Taylor star in a haunted house spookfest about a pair of paranormal investigators who get in over their heads when they confront what proves to be a powerful and terrifying entity.

Starts Fri.

★★½ DESPICABLE ME 2 -(Odeon/ SilverCity/Westshore/Empire Uni 4) The 2010 original, about a loathsome criminal mastermind who was reformed by the love of three young orphan girls, was a goofy delight.

The sequel, although still clever, is much more scattershot, with an unimaginative plot and unwelcome dashes of mean-spiritedness. Steve Carell, Kristen Wiig, and Russell Brand supply the voices. ★★½ FAST & FURIOUS 6 - (Roxy, 9:15) The high-octane series continues, with ever-wilder stunts.

In this outing Dom’s crew is asked to take down an ex-Special Ops soldier who has morphed into a supercriminal specializing in vehicular warfare. Starring Dwayne Johnson, Vin Diesel, and Paul Walker. ★★★½ FRANCES HA -(Empire 6) Greta Gerwig, the new indie It Girl, stars in this droll comedy-drama about a 20-something wannabe dancer in New York who is having trouble putting her life together.

GROWN UPS 2 -(Odeon/ SilverCityWestshore) Adam Sandler, Kevin James, Chris Rock and David Spade reunite for more zany lowbrow shenanigans as these old pals from high school return to their hometown to find all sorts of craziness awaiting them. ★★½ THE HEAT -(Odeon/SilverCity) In this raucous and sometimes hit-and-miss comedy from Paul Feig (Knocked Up), Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy (Bridesmaids) play odd-couple cops who will have to learn to work together if they are to stand a chance of taking down the drug lord who’s their assigned target. ★★ THE LONE RANGER -(Odeon/ SilverCity) More proves to be less, as the classic western TV show from the 1950s that featured a masked lawman and his Native American sidekick gets a predictably grandiose treatment from director Gore Verbinski (Pirates of the Caribbean). Starring Johnny Depp and Armie Hammer. To be fair, this is much slicker and more entertaining than the vindictive critical dog pile would make you imagine it is. ★★½ MAN OF STEEL -(Westshore/ Caprice) Zack Snyder (The Watchmen, 300) helms this occasionally interesting but mostly inflated reboot of the series about the original caped superhero. Starring Henry Cavill, Amy Adams, and Michael Shannon, who is brilliant as the villainous General Zod. MONSTERS UNIVERSITY -(SilverCity) In this prequel to the 2001 animated smash about fuzzy plush-toy monsters, we go back to the early days when Sully (John Goodman) and Mike (Billy Crystal) met at university.

Vike wins rugby medal

UVic Vikes rugby player Kehla Guimond (Stelly’s secondary) helped Canada win its first medal in a team sport at the 27th Summer Universiade in Kazan, Russia.

Canada defeated Great Britain 36-0 in Wednesday’s bronze-medal match bringing Canada’s overall total to 16 medals at the Universiade Games, up eight from 2011 in Shenzen, China.

Enduro mountain bike racing is coming to Victoria for the first time on Sunday.

Co-orgainzed by Pro City Racing’s Scott Mitchell, the Victoria Enduro is a 15-kilometre race through the trails of Hartland/Mount Work in Saanich.

“It’s something I’ve been planning for five months,” Mitchell said.

“Enduro racing is really taking off all over. It was the first year of Enduro World Series and it’s gained a ton of popularity, especially with a lot of former and current downhillers.”

Enduro is kind of a new style of racing, a blend between cross-country and downhill. What makes it different is that it’s a head-to-head competitive race with elements of an individual time trial.

“We see it as something where cyclists do the race and then come back next year to beat their own time, or to race with buddies, or maybe to beat their buddies. It’s almost in the mindset of a marathon running event, where riders are trying to finish the ride to accomplish it, not to beat the field,” Mitchell said.

The race is broken up into six stages, three transfer stages, which are not timed, and three special stages, which are timed.

Victoria company Race Day Timing is timing the race.

The race starts close to the Hartland mountain biking parking lot.

Racers begin with transfer Stage 1, which they complete at their own pace, and should take between 20 to 40 minutes, with a maximum time of 60 minutes.

Once racers reach the first special stage, the race is on, and the riders are being timed until they reach the end of the first special stage. Then it’s back to a slower pace for the second transfer stage, again with a relatively relaxed maximum time limit.

Transfer stages are more cross

Competition grows for Okell

IN BRIEF

Kolk is also originally from Victoria.

The South will be coached by the league’s 2012 champion Wenatchee AppleSox coaching staff.

Players are selected by a combination of votes from the Major League Scouting Bureau, WCL

head coaches and fans.

This year’s event is hosting a special guest: legendary Major League Baseball general manager Pat Gillick, who orchestrated the Toronto Blue Jays back-to-back world series wins in 1992 and 93, as well as the 2001 Seattle Mariners, which tied the all-time regular season win record with 116.

The team is also hoping to break the WCL All-Star Game attendance record of 4,156.

The HarbourCats host the Wenatchee AppleSox tonight (July 19), Saturday and Sunday at 7 p.m. sports@vicnews.com

of the race. But there was already 50 cyclists registered 10 days out from the Victoria Enduro, signalling a field between 100 to 150.

The Hartland enduro course is a fairly advanced and will be a healthy challenge for an intermediate rider.

Ideal bikes are duel suspension or traditional front-suspension (hard tail) cross-country mountain bikes.

The long-term plan is to make the Victoria Enduro part of a new series under the Island Cup banner with Cumberland and Parksville slated to launch enduro races later this summer.

The prize purse is $700 cash, to be distributed to the top women and men, with additional prizes for the elite riders.

Race time is 11 a.m. More info at islandcupseries.com. sports@vicnews.com

Local auto racer Bill Okell is on the outside looking in as the former champion of the annual GTU series at Riversedge Raceway in Mission. After winning the series from 2006 to 2010 Okell is once again fighting for a top-three spot. Okell’s sitting one point out of third ahead of the seventh and eighth races of the seasonm Aug. 3 and 4.

“It’s the competition getting better after years of success with the MGB,” Okell said.

His modified MGB is still first in the Sports Car Nascar Club of America standings, with a win in Sonoma, Calif., last week.

Juniors off to Callaway worlds Past winners of the Callaway Junior World Golf Championships include Phil Mickleson and some guy named Tiger.

It goes without saying the prestigious tournament, hosted in San Diego this year, is a major tournament for the four Victoria juniors on Canada’s 48-member team.

The Callaway junior world championship draws a field of over 1,200 junior golfers and is a huge week for college coaches, who will be there hunting upand-coming talent.

Representing Victoria are

Naomi Ko in the girls 15-to-17 year old category, and boys Keaton Gudz (13-14), Ethan Ko (11-12) and Jeevan Sihota (9-10).

Carrigan on Team B.C. Thanks to a course recordtying day at the Copper Point Golf Club in Invermere last week, Victoria’s Kevin Carrigan will be on Team B.C. at the 2013 Canadian Men’s Amateur Championship at Royal Colwood Golf Club and Gorge Vale Golf Club, Aug. 6 to 9.

Carrigan was third at the B.C. Amateur Golf Championship.

Provincial government prizes support urban aboriginal life Tom Fletcher Black Press

Projects in Penticton, Victoria and Vancouver to improve circumstances for B.C. aboriginal people who live off reserve have been awarded prizes of $15,000 each to continue their work.

B.C. Aboriginal Relations Minister John Rustad announced winners Monday of a provincewide competition for community-based projects that was launched in February. There were 21 entries, and winners are: n Penticton Peach Festival aboriginal cultural village, pre-

senting traditional food and ceremonies to increase community collaboration and reduce racism. n Arts For Wealth, a program of the Victoria Native Friendship Centre that pays honorariums to aboriginal artists to produce original works for auction at cultural and charitable events. n Vancouver Native Health Society’s aboriginal instant kitchen, a cooking program that passes on traditional food gathering and preparation along with nutrition theory, food label education and hands-on cooking, shopping and gardening skills.

Rustad noted that 74 per cent of B.C.’s aboriginal people live off reserves, and 60 per cent of those live in urban areas.

The contest was created in conjunction with the B.C. Association of Aboriginal Friendship Centres.

“This competition was really about finding out the groovy things that are happening in the communities around British Columbia, and honouring that and recognizing that that’s where the solutions are,” said Paul Lacerte, the association’s executive director. editor@vicnews.com

ing McLoughlin Point wastewater treatment plant to divert water currently heading out to sea.

The necessary construction work prompted city planners to look at sealing the pipeline hole with a paved cycling lane on the south side of Dallas Road.

“We had actually just begun a process of creating a vision at the waterfront from Clover Point to Ogden Point,” said acting mayor Pam Madoff.

“With the potential for the pipeline, we felt the first thing we needed to do was have a conversation with the CRD to find out what their level of interest and support is, and how we co-ordinate what will happen.”

If council approves the idea, public information sessions would be held sometime this fall to explore preliminary designs for the cycling path, according to a staff report.

“Dallas Road has become so incredibly popular, and there are a lot of conflicts, so what we’re looking at is how we can make it a shared space that works for the majority of people,” Madoff said.

Pipeline work along Dallas Road is not expected until at least 2015.

Cars mark 40th anniversary of American Graffiti John VanWerkhoven may not be obsessive compulsive. But there is no doubt he is obsessed with the 1973 film American Graffiti by director George Lucas.

It’s the feature cars ALYN EDWARDS that get him the most CLASSIC excited – the race-ready RIDES black 1955 Chevy driven

by Harrison Ford in the movie, and the yellow 1932 Ford coupe driven by actor Paul Le Mat as the two faced off on Paradise Road.

John had always wanted a little car with a big motor – defined: hot rod.

So the Fraser Valley condominium construction superintendent built a 1934 Ford coupe with a 600 horsepower blown 383 cubic inch Chevy stroker motor – defined: highly modified supercharged Chevrolet V8 engine delivering phenomenal power.

He raced that car at the Mission quarter-mile drag strip last year recording a time of 11 seconds and a speed of 128 miles per hour.

As the 40th anniversary of American Graffiti’s 1973 release approached, John

John VanWerkhoven’s exact replica of the 1932 Ford hot rod driven by actor Paul Le Mat in the movie American Graffiti, released 40 years ago this August.

decided to recreate the two main feature cars. His obsession took him to research the cars “right down to the colour of the needle on the temperature gauge.”

John acquired photographs of the original cars which pick out all the detail. With expert work from Willowbrook Collision in Langley, B&N

Hot Rods and Pass Time Auto Hotrod Builders, the American Graffiti replica cars were assembled right down to the finest details. “It is something for me to do that’s not work,” John says of his commitment to build the pair of “replicars.”

Top right: The replica of the 1932 Ford hot rod driven by actor Paul Le Mat in the movie.

Inset: A scene from American Graffiti, released Aug. 1,1973.

American Graffiti continued from B1

When John’s yellow Ford five-window coupe hot rod went on display alongside his black 1955 Chevy street racer at the BC Custom Car Show in Abbotsford this spring, the original American Graffiti stars were there to sign autographs.

“John did an awesome job. These cars are much better than the movie cars were,” said actor Paul Le Mat, who played youthful hot rodder John Milner in the original film. He was alongside the cars signing autographs with American Graffiti co-stars Candy Clark and Bo Hopkins.

A look inside the exact replica of the 1955 Chevy sedan driven by Harrison Ford in the film shows the level of detail. It has a “JFK will win!” rearview mirror hanger and Ford’s cowboy hat in the back.

The yellow 1932 Ford hot rod Paul Le Mat drove in the film has a piston gearshift top and a hand-built horn button to match the original.

“I’m on a high right now,” John says after

getting his photo taken with Paul Le Mat and the yellow hot rod.

“We wanted to do a 40-year themed tribute to American Graffiti but I never

imagined this.”

American Graffiti is a coming of age film set in 1962 Modesto, CA where writer producer George Lucas had grown up. The film captured the teenage rock and roll cruising culture of the era by featuring the lives of a group of high school graduates uncertain about their future.

Most of the action takes place in one night.

While a low-budget film that cost $1.27 million to produce, American Graffiti has grossed more than $200 million after its general release in the U.S. on Aug. 1, 1973.

John VanWerkhoven, the Langley father of six who recreated the two principal movie cars, plans to display them at coming shows around the Pacific Northwest.

His ultimate dream is to stage a mock race with the two replica movie cars on Paradise Road, which is really Frates Road, outside Petaluma, CA, where the final scenes of American Graffiti were staged.

Newest Goodyear blimp takes shape

Construction of a faster, larger airship is moving ahead with installation of the envelope over a rigid internal framework.

Goodyear is hard at work on the construction of its newest airship.

It marks an important milestone in the company’s plans to replace its current fleet of blimps as workers install an envelope over the aluminum and carbon fibre framework of the first of its new-design airships.

The airships are supplied by German zeppelin manufacturer ZLT Zeppelin Luftschifftechnik and being built with Zeppelin and Goodyear teams at Goodyear’s hangar in nearby Suffield.

Compared to the current fleet of Goodyear blimps, the new airship

models will be longer, faster and more maneuverable.

The envelope being applied to the new airship is made of polyester with a DuPont™ Tedlar film. As it is stretched over each metal truss, the envelope is attached. When complete, the heliumfilled envelope will have a volume of 297,527 cubic feet.

Coming construction milestones include the attachment of the airship’s tail fins and passenger gondola – scheduled to happen this year.

Goodyear’s blimp fleet generates significant value for the company through visibility at major events,

on-camera exposure during television broadcast, tire sales through support of Goodyear dealer and store promotions, and the goodwill generated by support of non-profit and public service programs.

During its long operational history, Goodyear has built and operated more than 300 lighter-than-air vehicles since 1917, including two large rigid airships – the U.S.S. Macon and U.S.S. Akron.

This is the first semi-rigid airship to be built in the 95-year history of the Wingfoot Lake Hangar.

Goodyear owns and operates three airships in the United States.

BLACK PRESS GREATER VICTORIA- Friday, July 19, 2013

In a race like no other, six Oscar Meyer Wienermobiles will be taking a part in a rally run where fans can join in online or through social media.

Oscar Mayer Wienermobiles compete in first-ever cross-U.S. summer road rally Metroland Media Carguide Magazine

Wienermobile Vehicle fans everywhere have reason to rejoice as the Oscar Mayer brand launches its first-ever Wienermobile Run program, giving fans unprecedented access to the most popular and longest-running mobile marketing tour in the U.S. Six teams of drivers, also known as Hotdoggers, and their newly personalized Wienermobile vehicles are asking fans where and how they’d like to see the Wienermobile this summer to help them earn points, give away swag, and ultimately be named champion.

One lucky fan will even win a visit from the reigning Wienermobile Run Champion.

Fans are encouraged to visit www.WienermobileRun.com to join their favourite Wienermobile team.

In return, fans will receive a team bumper sticker (while supplies last) and help their team earn points.

To differentiate the six vehicles, each Wienermobile has been given a unique team name and persona: #HellOnBuns, #SpeedyWiener, #Autobuhn, #DriftDog, #BornToBun and #Bunderstruck.

“The Wienermobile Run is the latest example of how the Oscar Mayer brand is continuing to evolve,” said Ed

Roland, Senior Experiential and Scale Marketing Manager of Oscar Mayer.

“This new program gives fans unparalleled access to the Wienermobile by allowing them to talk directly to Hotdoggers on social media and help determine where they will go this summer.

“It also gives everyone a stake in the game by supplying them with real ways to help their team earn points and get rewarded themselves.”

Other ways Wienermobile teams will earn points include: When the program wraps up on the last day of summer, the team with the most points will be declared the Wienermobile Run Champion.

Fans who have pledged support for the team online will receive a free, specially designed t-shirt from rising Boston designer Josh LaFayette (while supplies last), as well as a chance to win a visit from the winning Wienermobile.

Consumers can find out more about the Wienermobile Run, sign-up to join their favourite team and submit ideas for challenges by visiting www.

WienermobileRun.com.

For more real-time updates fans can follow Oscar Mayer on Facebook and the Wienermobile teams on Twitter and Instagram.
