Search for missing senior called off
Hughes gets prominent place in new museum
Exhausted all efforts: More than 2,000 hours of searching fails to find Tony Morley

he search for missing Cowichan senior Tony Morley has ended with his whereabouts still unknown, police said Monday. “Cowichan Search and Rescue (members) were out yesterday (Oct. 5), with community volunteers, in an organized search to cover a few areas still needing their attention,” North Cowichan/Duncan RCMP Cpl. Krista Hobday said of the hunt for Morley, believed lost Sept. 21 on or near Maple Mountain. Sunday’s efforts by police, Cowichan SAR, and tons of volunteers, ended at around 5 p.m. Police, SAR members, and Morley’s family thanked those volunteers for their time and dedication in the search for Morley, 79. “There have been well over 2,000 search hours logged over the 23-square-kilometre search area, and then some,” Hobday said. “Local residents allowed access to their property, (lent) their GPS after conducting their own searches, and shared their local knowledge with Cowichan Search and Rescue. “The family of Mr. Morley has been very helpful to the searchers, letting them know points of interest and Mr. Morley’s likely path.” Volunteers from across the island, plus 65 from the mainland, assisted the intensive dragnet. “Yesterday’s search was very difficult, and the terrain was described as brutal,” search manager Tina Phillips stated. “Different efforts are placed in different areas based on the probability they will be successful in their search, such as thick brush versus roads and trails.” Areas are categorized from reasonable to unlikely during search plans, she explained. “It isn’t that we don’t believe Mr. Morley is on the mountain, we have just exhausted all efforts and resources available to us to locate him,” stated Phillips. “It’s so terribly hard to stop (looking).” Cowichan SAR was scheduled to conduct a debriefing Tuesday evening, and planned to hold its monthly training day, within the next week, on Maple Mountain, Hobday noted. Morley’s daughter, Vanessa Fischer, thanked everyone who helped scour the mountain for her dad. She hoped “if anyone does go hiking in the area, that they keep an eye open for any sign of him.” North Cowichan /Duncan RCMP can be called at 250-748-5522.

A Duncan firefighter climbs a ladder to the roof of Nha Trang Restaurant at 62 Kenneth St. at 10:10 a.m. Friday. The department was called when smoke was visible inside the restaurant. An over-heated air conditioner on the roof caused the problem.
he largest, permanent collection of Duncan master-painter E.J. Hughes’ work is getting its own gallery in Whistler’s Audain Art Museum. Opening next fall, the $30-million structure — being built by Michael Audain and wife Yoshiko Karasawa — nestled in trees on Blackcomb Way, will offer 19 Hughes’ works, spanning the 1930s to the 1990s. Those pieces — picked by biographer and Vancouver Art Gallery curator Ian Thom — include 15 from Hughes’ friend, author and collector Jacques Barbeau, plus four from Audain’s collection. “E.J. Hughes would say to me ‘My art really belongs to the people of B.C.’” Barbeau told the News Leader Pictorial Monday. “The inference was clear: maybe there’s a better place for his work than my living room walls. “When we saw the concept of the (60,000-square-foot) Audain Museum, I thought it was the perfect repository for his work.” more on page 8

Downtown Chemainus is taking on a different look thanks to North Cowichan’s new revitalization plan.
Andrew Leong/file
New face of Chemainus taking shape
Downtown revitalization: First phase of huge project well underway Lindsay Chung
News Leader Pictorial
T
he original downtown Chemainus revitalization was in obvious need of revitalization after more than 30 years. A huge step toward that is taking shape as we speak. But the Waterwheel Square project dominating downtown is just one element of North Cowichan’s sweeping Chemainus Town Centre Revitalization Plan adopted three years ago. This extensive plan goes far beyond the downtown and murals. It includes every nook and cranny, including side streets, roads leading in and out of Chemainus, the waterfront and much more. John MacKay, director of engineering and operations for North Cowichan, is managing the current downtown phase. “It’s the main parking lot in Chemainus which is being completely redeveloped,’’ he explained. “We’re pretty well revamping the whole square. We’re putting in new pavers and landscaping. It’s going to be completely different.’’ An addition to the Chemainus Valley Museum is also well underway. “The museum is expanding and the Info Centre is moving into the building as well,’’ said MacKay.
$199
“It’s expanding but it’s going to have room for the Tourist Information Centre.’’ The infocentre’s old firehall home will be demolished and replaced on the site by the new library. The Neighbourhood House Association will essentially move up the street almost next door. The prime paving and curb work around the waterwheel should be finished by the end of 2014. “We wanted to stay out of the way in the prime tourist time,’’ said MacKay. It would take a book to outline everything in the plans for Chemainus. In fact, there is a huge 66-page document that summarizes the size of the project, which will be spread out over several years. “It lists a whole bunch of projects for the downtown,’’ said MacKay. “There was a fair amount of public consultation.’’ The municipality engaged HB Lanarc Consultants Ltd. to work with staff, the Chemainus Advisory Committee and the public to develop the series of projects and policies to guide the success of Chemainus’ future. The CAC, made up of Chemainus business owners, members of the Downtown Business Association, municipal councillors, nonprofit organizations, and members of the community, has provided valuable input and expertise from day one. “Part of the plan involves redeveloping Chemainus Road from the theatre to Henry Road,’’ added MacKay.
$3995
That includes the planned roundabout at Chemainus Road and River Road, which depends on a right-of-way for the project being given to the municipality. Besides that, the plan incorporates a wide variety of improvements such as making a better connection between Chemainus’ industrial heritage and the community. Development of a waterfront walkway looking down toward the Western Forest Products mill is seen as a way to bridge the gap, with interpretive signing to provide insight into the forest industry and its marketplace. A pedestrian waterfront boardwalk is also in the works, linking Kin Park with the industrial area by the government wharf and providing a stepping stone to Old Town.’ Streets and lanes are a significant part of the plan for Chemainus Road, Willow Street, Maple Street and Oak Street that better incorporates business and residential properties, with major visual improvements. Other plans include the longdebated skateboard park which will find a home on the old Chemainus Elementary School site. Chemainus will no longer be painted with the broad brush of being just a mural town, after all is said and done. The result, hopefully, will be more tourists and a better business base into the mix. “It’s everything people in Chemainus have wanted,’’ said MacKay. “It’s all in the plans.’’

Marsh society calls foul on latest diking project

part of North Cowichan and Duncan that flooded in in 2009,” Lefebure said. However, Fletcher was frustrated about what society members see as more marsh loss, and a lack of communication by North Cowichan. “We want to know how it’ll affect us, and how they’ll mitigate our concerns. We should be having that discussion now, not after the plan’s finished.” But Lefebure explained Fletcher has attended recent meetings about diking and the wetland. “We have the Somenos Marsh Management Committee, and the society is a part of that. At that committee, we’ve been discussing extension of the dike for many months.” Fletcher claimed council appears to be ignoring marsh-society worries. “Council’s seeking permission from the Nature Trust to do test pits on their lands, but (council’s) not meeting with us until after the plan is finished. We’re a (marsh) stakeholder but constantly put out to field while other negotiations are done.” The open-air classroom area is on municipal lands under a licence managed by the marsh society. “Staff just ignores us because it’s (public) property,” said Fletcher.

P
lanned diking along the highway has Somenos Marsh conservationists crying foul about possible habitat loss, and a lack of consultation by North Cowichan brass. During the weekend, Somenos Marsh Wildlife Society members flagged habitat foliage they believed could be ruined by municipal crews digging soil-test holes for dikes members believed will plow through the marsh’s openair classroom. The society’s marsh classroomboardwalk was upgraded and enhanced for wildlife viewing in recent years. Mayor Jon Lefebure said Tuesday municipal engineer Clay Reitsma reported a paid consultant will survey the potential dike site, map all features — signs, fences, tables, trails, structures, and low-impact access routes — before a test-hole rig digs —tentatively Oct. 17 and 18. Meanwhile, Reitsma will meet with the society to discuss dike alignments and any impacts, Lefebure explained. Staff are also consulting marsh landowners the Nature Trust, Ducks Unlimited, and the province, he said. The next round of diking — that might start next year — could see about a half-kilometre

Marsh society president Paul Fletcher feared it could block views of the marsh. “You won’t see the marsh (from the highway) anymore.” Lefebure explained the dike would be about one metre higher than the highway and necessary to protect from flooding. The dikes are part of the ongoing effort to elevate protection of the marsh-Beverly-highway areas from a one-in-25-year flood risk to a one-in-200-year level. “We’re completing the dike to protect a large

Hughes untapped resource for the Cowichan Valley
Come on Cowichan: Celebrate this great artist
W
e aren’t aware of any benefactors lurking in the Shawnigan hills with $30 million, just waiting to invest it into the Cowichan arts and culture scene. So it wouldn’t be fair to point fingers at anyone for failing to build a $30 million art museum in Cowichan displaying some of our province’s finest work. But we can’t help but look at the new art museum Michael Audain is bankrolling in Whistler and wistfully ask ‘why not us?” We are, of course, referring to one of the stars of the Audain Museum, E.J. Hughes. This quiet man captured some of Canada’s most important images, images of the West Coast, images created right here in the Work needs Cowichan Valley. He is, in all likelithe most noteworthy citizen this to be properly hood, area ever produced. recognized In his later years he was something of an anonymous hero, celebrated and shared by the national arts community, but relatively unknown to the general Cowichan public and even our leaders walking the corridors of power. That started to change in the past 10 or 15 years. National and provincial honours were eventually followed by the City of Duncan awarding him with its perpetual arts trophy. The Shawnigan Lake museum set up an exhibit. Excellent Frameworks opened the E.J. Hughes Gallery. A Duncan street was renamed in his honour and a movement to erect a statue as a tribute started (and stalled). But still we can’t help but feel the community has failed to grasp the scope of Hughes’ talent, or done what it can to ensure it is properly celebrated. The most fitting legacy would be embracing the work of Hughes and his contemporaries in the same manner Florence celebrates the work of the finest Italian masters. An Official E.J. Hughes Museum in Duncan displaying some of his finest work, surrounded by work from others of similar quality: how can we make it happen?
We say:
The good and the bad of this week in Cowichan This we don’t
This we like
We’ve heard a fair amount of grumbling in the community about North Cowichan’s love affair with roundabouts. We don’t buy it. They are making local intersections safer and easier to navigate and they are doing it at a relatively cheap cost thanks to the municipality’s ability to tap into ICBC and gas tax funding. They are doing what they are supposed to do and are a positive addition.
The search for Tony Morley has been called off.
Celebrating the intimate freedom of babycarriers Ashley Degraaf
News Leader Pictorial
I
recently discovered something pretty cool about Vancouver Island parents — particularly moms and dads in Cowichan. Babywearing is so popular here, there are support groups on Facebook (Cowichan Valley Babywearers/Mid-Island Babywearers). The group’s admins host Wrap and Chat meet-ups. There are ‘Babywearer in the wild’ posts to moms and dads spotted out and about wearing babes. There is special lingo and acronyms like ‘double hammock,’ ‘Tibetanstyle’ and ‘CHCC ( coolest hip cross carry).’ There is even a babywearing glossary. I stumbled upon this community purely out of convenience. I wanted something I could carry Audrey in while I tended to Jack when we were out.
Then there was a shopping trip at our very own Matraea Mercantile where I found the perfect ring sling to carry the little miss in. I have to say I’m quite astonished at how wonderful and practical babywearing is. I have worn Audrey to parks, beaches, to the farmers’ market, and stores. Using the ring sling and my Ergo baby carrier, I’ve worn her on walks and hikes and even in our own house while I tried to get dinner on the table. Heck, I wore both Audrey and Jack, who’s weighing in now at about 35 pounds, at this year’s edition of the Cowichan Exhibition at different times during the day. Not only is it convenient, it’s great to have a content baby cuddled up on your chest while you’re able to use both hands and go on with your day. It’s a beautiful bonding experience. But it seems there are a couple things to keep in mind. Babywearing can turn into an addiction.
We don’t blame authorities for calling off the search for Tony Morley. A lot of volunteers have done a lot of work scouring the woods of Maple Mountain in the past two weeks. But there eventually comes a time when the area has been blanketed and resources are exhausted. This effort has run its course. We just wish it could have produced some answers for the family.
COWICHAN LEADERS
There are so many companies who make carriers with a variety of styles and the most beautiful fabrics and patterns to choose from. That’s trouble. I had to take an hour break to chew over what colour ring sling I was going to purchase. Should I go with the bright pink and purple or more practical black and grey hounds-tooth? As evident in Facebook posts labelled ‘Stash Shots,’ some moms have a sling, wrap or carrier for every occasion, and in a variety of colours. Carriers aren’t cheap. Most of them cost more than $100, at least. I’ve also heard some babies can become so attached to wearing they don’t ever want to be put down. They hate the stroller, car seat, crib and bouncy chair. I have not experienced this myself, and I use my sling or Ergo almost every day. But I
don’t all day long. I like my own space and time to myself too, as much as I love the sweet baby smell from the top of Audrey’s head while I carry her. But that aside, babywearing is a cool way of parenting. Every mom and dad is going to have their own way about it or their favourite type of carriers too. I think it’s safe to say we can all give a big thank you to the monkeys. Because they do it, and it works great for them — baby carrying is a cool idea we’ve borrowed from our furry fellow primates. And now we’re doing it in style. Ashley Degraaf is a News Leader Pictorial reporter who writes about family issues here monthly.

Foresters need to learn new responsibility
Dear editor Writer Don Fern’s contention the forest industry is not doing its share for watershed protection is alarming but, of course, profoundly true (why aren’t the logging firms making sacrifices?) After decades of extracting resources from the Cowichan Valley, it is time for the industry to give back. The evidence of industrial activities is highly visible on the landscape—forests have been stripped, the land “bleeds” sediment, and watershed values have been degraded. Around Cowichan Lake, sediments choke stream mouths and downstream channels, jeopardizing important fish habitat. And, when rainwater and snowpack runoff occurs, less protective vegetation is available to mitigate erosive flows and help with soil-moisture retention. Despite the Private Managed Forest Land Council membership’s self-serving and insistent claims of adherence to professional certification standards and their observance of “best practices,” these pleadings ring hollow. Mature, full-profile healthy forests and their richly biodiverse canopies have been replaced with intensively managed, ecologically unsustainable fibre farms. Immature crops are harvested in quick rotation according to computer market models calibrated to optimize shareholder value—not local watershed values. Stewardship based on ecological principles is

and tastings held in the Cowichan Valley. As a local, I love our Cittaslow lifestyle. This is no place for yet another gravel extraction pit. The analogy would be placing a gravel pit in the centre of the Napa Valley. There is a meeting to be held at the Cobble Hill Hall to discuss the proposal to extract gravel from Blame Ayr Farm in Cobble Hill, Oct. 16 at 6 pm. Please come and invite your neighbours too.

Is there a hidden agenda to ferry policy?
The 2014 Cops for Cancer, Tour de Rock make their way through the gymnasium of Frances Kelsey Secondary School. an afterthought at best. Like the rest of us, the forest industry must learn to innovate and adapt. Business-as-usual just won’t cut it. It is time for these folks to join the Cowichan community and really make our watershed sustainable. It will require nothing less than a shift in consciousness and a massive change in their operating model. Now would be a good time to challenge not just local private forest landowners but also local political candidates about their vision for the watershed. Will they insist on an equitable sharing of responsibility over “our” watershed? Roger Wiles North Cowichan
Making it harder to recycle boggles the brain

MMBC accepts what there is a market for
Dear editor It is important to clarify an aspect of the Multi-Material B.C. residential packaging and printed paper recycling program referenced in your Sept. 26 article “Can we start talking south-end recycling depot yet?” MMBC’s commitment is to only accept packaging and printed paper for which there is a recycling market. For example, MMBC accepts specific types of plastic film packaging because North American plastic film recyclers accept only specific types of plastic film packaging. When possible, MMBC’s preference is to recycle materials in North America to minimize the environmental impact of transportation. By accepting film only at depots, depot staff can help educate residents about the types of film that are accepted
Arnold Lim
and ensure only those types of film are collected. With respect to aerosol containers, MMBC accepts all empty aerosol containers in curbside, multi-family and depot collection, with the exception of spray paint cans, which are collected under another stewardship program.

Don’t ruin our Napa Valley feel by digging gravel
Dear editor Why do you think ferry fares on and off the islands have gone up consistently over the years? With the talk, yet again, around bridging islands, this time Gabriola, I have to ask. Could there be lobbying behind the oceanic scene, folks with an agenda? Real estate companies? Concrete suppliers? A government tired of subsidizing our water highway? I can only guess. Keep raising the boarding cost incrementally. Reduce sailing times. Make people surly until they convince themselves a bridge is the only viable option. I truly hope such a game isn’t being played here. If it is, I hope we can outlast and outwit such players and vote them off the islands. Cheryl Trudell Duncan

Artist called ‘historian of this province’ from page 1
The work of war-artist Hughes — who died in 2007 at age 93 — was “really a pictorial catalogue of B.C.” “Whether it was Ladysmith or Cowichan ... Hughes knew Vancouver Island better than a lot of people, and people will relate to that. He’s really a historian of this province,” Barbeau said. The 19 Hughes — watercolours, oils and acrylics — will include On Taylor Bay, Gabriola Island (1951); Entrance To West Arm (Shawnigan Lake), (‘68), Unloading Logs, Comox Harbour (‘69); Trees, Sooke Harbour B.C. (‘51); and
Boathouses On The Beach, Ladysmith (‘69). “We wanted to show the whole range of his career, and build around the nucleus of what the Audain family had,” said Thom. “To see a body of work of a particular artist. .. gives you better a feeling of the mind of the artist and their creative process,” said museum executive director Suzanne Greening, expecting some of Whistler’s 2.5 million annual visitors to see Hughes’ work. “E.J. Hughes is smiling on this (museum) from above,” Barbeau said. “Art Masterhome painterorE.J.simply Hughes. Whether building a new was his life.”

o hear Shaun O’mara tell it, Halloween is almost as big a deal as Christmas on Vancouver Island. “I come from Toronto, my background is in costume design,” the Value Village employee said. ‘I had no idea it was such a big thing on the island, I’ve never seen such a community for dressing up.” Maybe that accounts for his job title: Halloween co-ordinator at Victoria’s large thrift store. What does said co-ordinator say is big for Halloween this year? Little girls want to be Elsa, from the Disney movie Frozen, O’mara said. Frozen tells the story of a fearless princess who sets off on an epic journey alongside a rugged iceman, his loyal pet reindeer, and a hapless snowman to find her estranged sister, whose icy powers have inadvertently trapped the kingdom in eternal winter. For little boys, superheros are popular, as they’ve been in previous years. Characters in blockbusters always seem to appeal to boys. The Joker and Captain America are popular, and “Spiderman is huge.” Women always want to look beautiful and they accessorize with wigs, eyelashes and jewellery. They seem to like the medieval look; Guinevere and Sleeping Beauty are popular
choices. And the guys? Inexplicably, they’re drawn toward food: bananas, pickles, beer, donuts or hamburgers. They like pink gorilla suits too, which at $99 a pop sold out in three days. Onepiece costumes really appeal to them. “Next to the little girls, they’re the biggest (costume) shoppers,” he said. “Guys want to be humorous; because they’re embarrassed, they often choose to be food.” Pirate suits are popular with both women and men. Parents shopping for their kids prefer premade costumes. Costumes at Value Village range from $1.99 to $99.99, but “you can be show-stopping for $60,” O’mara said. His store’s shoppers can choose from three categories: new costumes, “pieced together,” with bits of this and that found throughout the store, or brand-new costumes left over from last year. “Professional shoppers do brandnew. The older set, who don’t fit into a penguin suit, piece their costumes together from throughout the store,” the former Torontonian said. Shoppers with a little more money to spend who don’t care about trends could choose an iconic Elvis jumpsuit. Elle von Beotticher, owner of Pro Elvis Jumpsuits, said her business (in Nanaimo) sells five or six additional jumpsuits around Halloween. One of her biggest sellers is the Aloha jumpsuit, which she ships all over the world. In business since 2007, the costume designer who used to work on film sets said the Aloha jumpsuit costs $1,970 U.S. and the accompanying cape $1,050. The cape which takes about 30 hours to make has rhinestones and other bling on it and weighs eight pounds.

Costumes give people freedom from page 10
One of his favourite costumes? A friend dressed herself in an Indian sari and sewed candies on it, she was, drumroll please, the former prime minister of India, Indira Candy. Not surprisingly, someone with O’mara’s job title has a theory as to why us islanders seem to love Halloween. “Life can be a little staid day to day, Halloween gives people the freedom to be their inner demon or angel, you can say or do anything
without any ramifications,” O’Mara said. “If I’m a computer nerd who works in a cubicle by day, on Halloween I can be whoever I want to be.” If you still haven’t decided on a costume, you’d better move fast. Value Village’s Halloween co-ordinator said the Halloween rush started the first week of September. Ask any kid and they’ll tell you it’s only 23 more sleeps until All Hallows Eve, the day O’mara says Vancouver Islanders are wild about.

Muldaur’s intriguing musical journey continuing Way past Midnight
Kathy Santini
News Leader Pictorial
I
nterviewing six-time Grammy nominee Maria Muldaur about her lengthy music career is like taking a walk down a musical memory lane. Muldaur, who’s playing the Duncan Showroom this Thursday and Friday, is a fantastic interview who’s stories inevitably involve the who’s who of the music industry. From others, it might be viewed as name dropping. From Muldaur, it’s just her life. Her friend, blues legend Bonnie Raitt, came up with a name for her tour: “still rocking way past midnight.” “But that name was too long, so I went with the name I came up with,” Muldaur said. Way Past Midnight references her mega-hit from 1974, Midnight at the Oasis. Boomers will remember that chart-topping song, which peaked at number six on the Billboard Hot 100. It was nominated for both record of the year and song of the year at the 17th-annual
Grammy awards, held in 1975. “That song was a big hit, it gave me the opportunity in subsequent albums to bring the music I loved to a much larger audience,” the singer said, calling it the highlight of her career. “I’ve never heard anything like that song, before or since.” With 40 albums under her belt, she decided on the 40-year anniversary of her mega-hit not to repeat her album-a-year formula. “Instead, I decided to step back and reflect on my body of work and the interesting musical journey that I’ve had, to honour fans’ favourites and to highlight some of my more recent work.” Looking at Muldaur’s musical career, it’s hard to label her. Since Midnight at the Oasis, she’s covered all kinds of American roots music, including gospel, R&B, jazz and big band, not to mention several award-winning children’s albums. “I wasn’t trying to stay with one kind of genre, but anything that delighted me,” the songstress said.”I just like to discover and explore the music I love.” She now finds herself singing the blues. Accompanying her on this tour is the Red Hot Bluesina band, with Chris Burns on keyboard, Craig Caffall on guitar and vocals and Adam Goodhue on drum. Of her six Grammy nominations, three

have been in the past 10 years. Two of those were acoustic albums, tributes to early blues pioneers. “I haven’t won a Grammy yet. I’m not giving up; that would be very rewarding, I won’t lie,” Muldaur said. That said, it can’t beat hearing from her fans on how her music impacted them. “That’s worth 10 Grammies.”

Last year, $8,362.29 was collected from the sale of cancelled stamps and postcards throughout British Columbia and Yukon to be distributed for Cancer Research or Cancer Dressings, wherever it is needed. (We must thank our friends in the community for keeping us well supplied with stamps.) Sunset Chapter #44, Duncan has one of our 39 Cancer Dressing Stations, located downstairs in the Mercury Theatre on Brae Road, Duncan. Last year, throughout our jurisdiction, 170 dedicated members volunteered 8120 hours producing 69,708 cancer dressings at a cost of $9,599.91. (We’ve used up inventory on hand, which once again reduced expenses. There is a need for dressings in Northern BC, so these numbers will likely increase next year.)
p m a t S Out r e c n a C
Presently, sterilization is only being done by certain Hospitals and Clinics by trained and qualified staff in Vancouver, Victoria, Kelowna andd Prince George. The present method of distribution on is - the hospital staff will give the patient a supplyy of cancer dressings to take home. Local cancer patients requiring dressings are asked to contact the Canadian Cancer Society Office at 250-746-4134. Cancer is a dreadful disease without the added burden of the expense of dressings often required. THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO CHARGE TO THE PATIENT. All that is required is a doctor’s referral. By supporting our Stamp Project, attending bazaars and teas, the Cabaret Night or buying tickets on our annual Cancer Draw, you enable us to continue our efforts in the fight against cancer. We’ve had a Polar Swim each February since 2005, first at Transfer Beach in Ladysmith and starting this year, at Departure Bay in Nanaimo. Thanks to pledges/donations, the members willing to brave the chilly water, have raised over $50,000.00 for Cancer Projects. Please drop off your used stamps at the Cowichan News Leader/Pictorial Office between 8:30 am and 5:00 pm, Mon. to Fri., #2-5380 Trans Canada Hwy., the United Steelworkers Office, 351 Brae Road, or the local Cancer Office, #100-394 Duncan Street. NB: Our Stamps Dealers dictate how the stamps are to be trimmed, so we are asking our friends in the community NOT to TRIM stamps off envelopes. Just leave the stamps intact and we’ll do the rest. We don’t want any stamps to be spoiled. Thanks.

Eastern road swing not kind to the Capitals Zero for three: Team now in sole possession of league basement
THANK YOU!
for supporting families living with autism in the Cowichan Valley and surrounding regions.
Peter W. Rusland
News Leader Pictorial
A
n eastern road win didn’t make a rough start to the season any better for the Cowichan Valley Capitals. Three weekend road games saw the team post as many losses, plus a passel of early-season penalties. They came home sporting a 1-6 season record and sole possession of last place. The Caps began the weekend with Friday’s 6-2 loss to Trail’s Smoke Eaters, followed by Saturday’s 2-1 biting by the Vernon Vipers. That match boasted a second-period fight — and game-misconducts handed to three Caps’ players. Cowichan’s crew was relatively well-behaved during Sunday’s 5-3 loss at the hands of the West Kelowna Warriors. Friday’s game in Trail saw the Caps scoreless at 3-0 after period one, then Ryan Burton hit the target at 11:20 in period two. Sean Harrison added another marker at 19:20 in the third. Saturday’s lone Caps’ goal was gained by Jesse Neher in period three. It followed an infractionpacked end to period two, as Caps Thomas Gobell and Charlie Pelnik each got tossed with less than a minute left. Two fights broke out at the same time after Pelnik was caught roughing after the whistle. Alex Bechtold ended the night by joining Saturday’s list of players penalized for overaggressive play. He was handed a misconduct as time expired along with two minutes for an illegal blow to the head Things calmed down Sunday, which boasted a period-one goal by Caps’ Skylar Pacheco, plus period-three points from Pacheco and Gobell. The Caps’ goalies got weekend workouts spelling each other off — Matthew Zentner saved 40 of 43 shots Friday; crease-mate Lane Michasiw managed three saves from six shots. Saturday in the Vipers’ den had Zentner save 36 of 38 shots. Sunday saw Michasiw stop 22 of 26 bullets.

ix minutes into the game, it was pretty evident how things between the Cowichan LMG Pringle soccer side and Victoria’s Castaways would go. At the two-minute mark, Patrick Nelson, the leading goal scorer in the Division 1 Vancouver Island Soccer League scored a goal for the Cowichan team, his eighth of the year. Four minutes later, at the six-minute mark, Jesse Winter scored his first goal this year. “We came out flying, that’s the first game where we came out scoring so early,” Cowichan coach Glen Martin said. It set the template for a game that saw Cowichan prevail 5-0 in a very physical tilt, where lots of yellow cards were handed out by the referees to the Castaways.. Twenty-five minutes into the game, Connor Crichton scored the team’s third goal. The fourth and fifth goals were scored by Kevan Brown, at 32 and 79 minutes respectively. “The key was the great start we had, two goals in six minutes is s dream start,” Martin said. “It was hard for the Castaways to overcome the fast start.” After that, he said the game, “settled down.” Because of the score, the Cowichan coach was able to play his whole team and in the second half put in two players with, fresh legs. “I don’t normally do that, but because the score was 4-0, I felt I could do so,” Martin said, adding despite the score, the game itself wasn’t easy. The result wasn’t that surprising to the veteran coach because last year, Cowichan beat the Castaways

Brad Thorne of Cowichan LMG Pringle jockey for the ball with Steve Shivas of Castaway FC during a Vancouver Island Soccer League Division 1 game at Keserich Field on Sherman Road on October 3. Cowichan won 5-0 3-0 and 4-0. “We scored more goals over them this year,” he said. Among game highlights were a shutout for goalie Joel Wilson. Brown was the teams most valuable player, with his two goals. A couple of hundred people attended the game, played at Sherman Road Park’s Bill Keserich Field. This Friday, Oct. 10, is a big game for the team, which plays the Saanich Fusion. The Fusion, like Cowichan, is undefeated, with three wins and two ties. The team beat Cowichan last year in the Jackson Cup Final, 1-0. “We hope to have a start like last game, we’ll be pressing hard, hoping for some early goals, it may not happen against such a strong team,” Martin said. Friday’s game starts at 7:30 p.m. at Bill Keserich Field.

Sandquist pushes toward top spot in the global age-group rankings Ironman series: School District 79 employee a Superman once he puts his triathlon skills into motion
Don Bodger
News Leader Pictorial
D
uncan’s Jason Sandquist is like Superman when he steps away from his office job as assistant secretary-treasurer for School District No. 79. In his other life, Sandquist is a triathlon racing phenom. Always has been. It started in his much younger days and he’s still going strong into his mid-40s. “I don’t have a coach. I don’t have unlimited time,’’ said Sandquist. “The best of the best is out there. I do OK, for my hobby.’’ Sandquist took the years from 2003 to 2009 off from triathlon that separates the two phases of his long and distinguished triathlon ventures. Since returning, he found his niche on the Ironman 70.3 circuit or what some might call the Half Ironman.
Events consist of 70.3 miles made up of 1.2 miles of swimming, 56 miles of biking and 13.1 miles of running. For those more wired to the metric system, that’s 1,900 metres of swimming, 90 kilometres of biking and 21.1 km of running. Last year, Sandquist finished tied for first in the global age-group rankings for 40- to 44-year-olds among some 10,512 men racing the series. “I had maximum points and only one other person internationally had scored that many,’’ he said. Last year, Sandquist recorded 70.3 wins at Boise, Idaho; Lake Stevens, Washington and Austin, Texas. He wound up 13th in the World Championships for 40- to 44-year-olds at Henderson, Nevada, derailed from an anticipated higher finish by two flat tires on his bike. This year, Sandquist was looking to Henderson, Nevada for redemption. Pending race results there Oct.
5, he had a chance to secure the number-one world 70.3 ranking for the 45- to 49-year-olds among 8,735 men, all part of his master plan. “I thought this would be a very good year to go for it,’’ Sandquist said. “I’m 45, I’m into a new age group.’’ The year has gone extremely well for him with wins at Victoria and Lake Stevens. Overall wins were also achieved at the Cowichan Challenge and the Self-Transendence Triathlon in Victoria plus a second in the World Championships at Mount Tremblant, Quebec recently that could very well have been his signature race. “I finished Mount Tremblant pretty much on fumes,’’ he said. “That’s what you do at a World Championship.’’ Sandquist was 21st out of the water in 28:15, ninth after completing the bike in 2:16:07 and right in the thick of it in second place after a superb run of 1:24:35. Sandquist really didn’t know where he stood at the end because
Duncan’s Jason Sandquist finishes second overall (45-49) at the Ironman 70.3 World Championship in Mont Tremblant, Quebec. “Might have been the race of my life,’’ he noted. “everyone’s on the course — all the different age groups,’’ he said. “I found out I was second and that was the best.’’ It surpassed his performance of
Youth Athlete of the Week
Megan Groenendijk of VIU serves during a set against Camosun on Sept. 30 at Duncan Christian School. Camosun won 3 of 5 sets, 25-19, 25-17, 12-25, 23-25, 15-12. A DCS Grad and thirdyear VIU player, Groenendijk played a great match as the VIU floor captain.
third from 2009 in the World Championships at Clearwater, Florida. Sandquist would be in his glory to achieve at least a share of top spot overall in the 70.3 series for the second year in a row. But there’s no big award for it, only personal satisfaction. “It’s just for bragging rights,’’ he said. “It matters to me. That’s something I’m engaged in.’’ There are similarities to his work where Sandquist puts his accounting brain into practice. “It’s like a big puzzle,’’ he said of competing. “How do I put this all together the best that I can?’’ The 70.3 distance suits Sandquist’s lifestyle in terms of commitment and ability, something he hopes to maintain for many years to come. “You can race every three to four weeks in a Half Ironman,’’ he said. “I can get away with 18 to 20 hours of training. Ironman takes it to a higher level and the difference is significant. “I’m not getting faster. I’m trying not to slow down.’’
Abby Dirom-Cline The horse and rider bond between A Touch Of Dutch and Abby DiromCline goes far beyond the ordinary. Dirom-Cline, 16, a Grade 11 student at Cowichan Secondary School, has been competing since the age of six and riding before that. She was there when her horse was an hour and a half old. “Lots of bonding with her and it’s just been awesome,’’ said Dirom-Cline. The initial connection has evolved nicely into competition. “She’s grown incredibly,’’ said Dirom-Cline. “When we first started, she would barely move. She just didn’t want to do anything. But she’s kind of realized what we’re doing and she loves jumping. She’s very brave at cross-country and she trusts I’m not going to put her in harm’s way so she’ll do everything.’’ The pair claimed a B.C. championship for PreEntry this summer, among many other significant accomplishments. “I see a lot of diligence on Abby’s behalf,’’ said Maeve Drew, her coach locally and with the B.C. Horse Trials Young Riders. “She’s got very dedicated to the sport. She practices many days a week. I can see Abby having that spark. I can see her wanting to go and succeed.’’
