This kind of thief deserves to get socked ALISTAIR TAYLOR CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

It takes Inge Kettler two months to knit a huge sock.

This one she made and sold last December. Her latest one was stolen from where it hung in front of the store last Friday.

A giant hand-knitted sock which was hanging off the awning in front of the Needle & Arts Centre was stolen in plain daylight last Friday.

Although located on usually-busy Shoppers Row, the approximately one-metre-long sock was taken off its hook, much to the disappointment of shop owner Inge Kettler.

It had taken her more than two months and 20 balls of wool to knit and felt this second version of the colourful sock, which has been a landmark on Shoppers Row for more than a year.

The first one (pictured) was sold last December.

“I was heart broken when I realized that all my work and our store icon was gone. I offer a real pair of hand knitted socks if this giant sock is turned in or if somebody saw the incident,” Kettler says.

The sock hangs from an awning on a S-hook. The Kettlers hang it up every morning and take it down at night with a special stick. You have to be pretty tall to take it off without the stick, Jurgen Kettler says.

The Needle & Arts Centre is a destination shop for yarn, pottery and gifts.

Warrior run

Members of Wounded Warrior Run BC make their way into Campbell River Wednesday morning.

The seven-day relay run covers 600 kilometres, stopping in communities from Port Hardy to Victoria to raise public awareness and financial support for Wounded Warriors Canada, a non-profit charity that provides programs for those suffering from PTSD and other mental health issues.

The run arrived at Royal Canadian Legion Branch 137, and the Legion and Ladies Auxiliary provided a dinner for the team and presented a cheque for $1,050. See story on page 61.

Disabled Campbell River man’s electric bike stolen

A Campbell River man with mobility issues is warning the community not to buy a hot electric bike.

Bruce Forsberg says if you’re offered a black and silver XPH Motorino electric bike for a great price in a private sale, you should call the RCMP because it might be the one stolen from his underground parking spot on Erickson Campbell River RCMP are seeking information on this man after the Quinsam Shell gas station was robbed Tuesday morning.

Downriggers hot item Campbell River RCMP have recently noticed a spike in theft of downriggers from boats in the area.

This is a high-value item that is often left attached to boats while parked in front of homes, RCMP spokesperson Const. Sara Clark

Road.

“I just want to remind people: don’t buy the darn thing,” Forsberg said.

The bike is essential to Forsberg for getting around due to his disability.

“I use it get into town from Willow Point to go to the doctors, to do banking, etc.,” he said.

The bike was stolen sometime Sunday night between 1 a.m. and 5 a.m. from an underground parking lot at 155 Erickson Road.

Local merchants who deal with these kinds of vehicles have been warned about the theft in case someone tries to sell them the bike.

It’s an approximately $3,500 item and although it’s insured, it’s going to take a few weeks and a $500 damage deposit to get it replaced, Forsberg said.

You can contact the Campbell River RCMP at 250-286-6221 or Crimestoppers at 1-800-2228477.

said. Police often see an increase of theft during the boating season when the public is using the equipment on a more regular basis. Most downriggers have a serial number written on them.

The RCMP is asking the public to secure items in their boats when left unattended, as well as recording any serial numbers on

equipment inside the boat. In the absence of a serial number, identifying marks such as the owner’s initials are also valuable to police in locating stolen goods.

If anyone has any information on any of these recent thefts, contact the RCMP at (250) 2866221 or Crimestoppers at 1-800222-8477.

4x6 Based on the evidence left on scene, it is believed the suspect vehicle is a blue or black 1986 Ford mustang.

Police are asking that anyone with information on this crime contact Campbell River RCMP at (250)286-6221 or Crimestoppers at 1-800222-8477 (TIPS).

The suspect vehicle was travelling at a high rate of speed and collided off road with a parked pick up truck, Const. Sara Clark said.

The suspect vehicle pushed the pick up truck into the owner’s residence, causing damage to both the residence and the vehicle.

Oyster River comes to board Here we 3x7 with alternative to school closure Septen grow welcomeagain Jasmine MIKE DAVIES

CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

Full Line 0f Spirits

Two of the public submissions to the Board of Education at this week’s meeting again requested that Oyster River Elementary be withdrawn from consideration for closure.

Instead of just pleading with the board not to close the school, however, one proposal provided an alternative for the board to consider.

Bobbi-Jo Thulin, chair of the Parent Advisory Council (PAC) at Oyster River Elementary, told the board that with more time to look at more alternatives to closure, the community could revitalize the school.

She presented the board with a petition with 1,340 signatures that has been presented to the Minister of Education, and requested a consultation process to consider converting the school into a neighbourhood learning centre. That learning centre, she said in a package presented to the board, “could offer Oyster River and surrounding neighbourhoods amazing opportunities and encourage community growth.”

She suggested partnerships with other provincial ministries and community partners that could make the facility more of a hub of learning than simply a district

school.

The ideas range from partnering with the Ministry of Agriculture and the B.C. Farmers Association to teach local children and families about the importance of local food security and sustainability, start a community farmer’s market, composting site, community garden and greenhouse to partnering with local artists and galleries to offer art classes and gallery space.

“We feel it is time the Board of Education gets proactive in this district and help the community and families find and establish alternatives to closing Oyster River School,” Thulin says.

The board, for its part, said that’s exactly what it is doing during the closure process – looking for alternatives to consider.

“This is not a school closure process. This is a school closure consultation process,” said chair Susan Wilson when asked

by Brenda Leigh, representative for Area D of the Strathcona Regional District, why the board has not removed Oyster River Elementary from the discussions and moved it to Phase 2, as requested numerous times by the community.

“We are consulting. We have given a start date and an end date. We need to stick with the dates that have been given. At the end of the consulta-

tion, we will have a vote.

We are asking for and we are hoping for input and information,” Wilson said, so they have as much information as they can gather –including any possible alternatives – when they vote.

“I understand how stressful this is (for the community) and we are not taking this lightly.

This is something that we are giving very deep and thoughtful consideration to.”

One issue that may arise from the PAC’s idea of creating a neighbourhood learning centre, however, is that because of how the Ministry of Education calculates capacity, if the board keeps O yster River Elementary open, any excess space – including space that is leased to other organizations or used for purposes other than school enrolment – would still count against the district during any applications for capital funding for maintenance and renovations to facilities.

Secretary-Treasurer Kevin Patrick explained to those in attendance that excess capacity – school space that is not full of students registered with the school district – has, “a negative impact on the approval process for future capital funds,” if the space could possibly be full of students from elsewhere within

the district.

“Depending on where that capital request is for, they will look at nearby facilities,” Patrick said. “If there are two schools that are both half empty, and both require $2 million worth of work, the ministry will just say, ‘rather than giving you $4 million to do them both, why not combine schools and just do one?’ They will reject the approval and ask, or rather encourage, the district to make the choice to consolidate those facilities.”

Trustee Joyce McMann brought up the concept of possibly “partitioning a school” and selling off part of a property, creating a situation where the empty space in a facility isn’t even owned by the district, and therefore wouldn’t factor into the ministry’s “surplus capacity” calculations. Patrick said that is something that could be considered by the board, as the district is involved in just that kind of arrangement with North Island College on the Timberline Secondary property.

The consultation process continues next week with another round of public consultation sessions at both Discovery Passage Elementary (Tuesday, March 1) and Oyster River Elementary (Thursday, March 3). The meetings are scheduled for 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. in each school’s gym.

Provincial budget misses on core issues

I was hoping to avoid ranting about something in this edition of Mike’s Musings.

I was hoping this would be one of the nice ones where I get to talk about how awesome something is. But then the provincial government released its budget last week and that idea went out the window.

In this episode of the province’s “How We’re Spending Your Money” announcement, there were concessions made for people wanting to buy a house (as long as that house is “newly built’), but not much for those among us who are forced to pay other people’s mortgages for the privilege of living inside, making them unable to save enough to ever afford a down payment on their own home.

Rents are going up faster than paycheques, and people are already paying more than they should.

According to the most recent numbers from the Canadian Rental Housing Index, about half of the people who rent their accommodation in the Strathcona region (that’s us) pay more than 30 per cent of their household income on rent and utilities. That means that

Ferry fares are going to start bobbing up and down, and there’s a possibility Island passengers could be better served because of it.

B.C. Ferries is planning to roll out variable pricing, with the most expensive fares at peak hours and discounted fares on the least-popular crossings.

The intention is to try to fill up some of the emptier, money-losing trips, with the added benefit of potentially relieving pressure elsewhere on the sailing schedule.

It’s a tried-and-true model used by other types of transportation companies, such as airlines, which would go out of business in a hurry if they sent halffull jumbo jets flying around the globe.

Good business practice at B.C. Ferries matters to British Columbians who subsidize the corporaWe say: Good tion. business practices Dollars and cents can’t always be the primary are BC Ferries consideration – ferries are an essential transpormatter to us all tation link and must provide a service – but any relief from subsidies and fare increases will be appreciated, now and in the future.

A new fare model is likely to benefit Island residents who understand ferry ridership patterns and plan our travel accordingly, avoiding the worst of the long-weekend lineups.

Part of us hopes that variable pricing might end up as a sort of tax on tourists who aren’t as familiar with the ferry system.

It’s a selfish notion, perhaps, but certainly we on Vancouver Island will continue to pay our fair share of rising fares.

Some commuters, unfortunately, will get dinged by the variable fare scheme, and for any of us, peak-hour ferry rides will be unavoidable sometimes.

Ultimately, we’re going to be taking the ferry no matter what, and paying the fares we’re charged.

If B.C. Ferries can find better ways to make its service efficient, affordable and sustainable, then hey, that floats our boat.

Instead we’ll put money into finding out where the people live who are buying real estate in Vancouver. No word yet on what they’ll do with that information once it’s gathered, though.

We’ll put money into creating a new commission to reexamine and “modernize” the PST. They say the review will not consider a return to the Harmonized Sales Tax, but you can bet whatever they figure out won’t end up with more money in your bank account after all is said and done.

We’ll increase Medical Services Plan premiums for people who are already struggling.

I want to say that investing more money – $217 million over three years – into the Ministry of Children and Family Development for things like hiring more social workers gives me some hope. But we wouldn’t need more social workers if people didn’t need the services of social workers as often as they do.

You know, by properly funding education, healthcare, addictions services, mental health and other social programs.

City council does some bylaw housekeeping KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

Council, at its Monday night meeting, gave final approval or third reading to roughly a handful of city bylaw changes.

Here’s a rundown: Graffiti fines Council adopted a bylaw amendment that will require waste companies to remove graffiti from their garbage bins within 12 working days or be subject to a fine of $250.

Council has been debating the new rule over a span of two months.

At the Feb. 9 council meeting, council by a 4-3 vote narrowly defeated extending the deadline to 15 business days.

Coun.

Ron Kerr had noted that council only gives businesses seven days to remove any graffiti that appears on their buildings.

Kerr said he conducted his own survey of garbage bins and found that of the 162 he counted around the city, 44 (28 per cent) had been tagged and it didn’t seem to matter whether they were visible from the street or if they were in a back alley.

Extra towing Council also adopted an amendment to its Traffic and Highways Regulation bylaw that gives the city the authority to tow utility, boat and travel trailers that are illegally parked, impeding snow removal or have five unpaid parking tickets.

The city already has the authority to tow or remove most other motor vehicles from highways or other public places.

Last year, of the 178 complaints the city received related to parking, 37 involved utility, boat or travel trailers.

Dog fees Thanks to the efforts of a Campbell River woman who recently acquired a diabetic alert service dog, changes are coming to dog licensing fees.

Council this week gave third reading to a bylaw amendment that will exempt owners of service dogs from having to pay to license their dog.

The amendment will also apply to RCMP dogs, Search

and Rescue dogs, as well as all guide and service dogs.

The changes will also give those dogs access to areas of parks, Discovery Pier, tot lots and playgrounds where dogs are typically banned.

The exemption also allows those dogs to be unleashed to properly fulfill their role “provided that the dog is under effective control of a competent person and is performing its function as a Guide and Service dog, RCMP dog or Search and Rescue dog,” according to Karl Read, city bylaw officer.

Fire ticketing Council also gave third reading to a bylaw amendment that will allow fire captains to write up tickets.

Currently, only the city’s

See in-store sales associate for details. Offer available at participating retailers.

Store robbed

fire chief, deputy fire chief and fire inspector can write up tickets for bylaw infractions.

Mayor Andy Adams said that giving that authority to fire captains will make it easier on the fire department.

“It enables the captains, who are with their crew and generally first on the scene in these types of instances, to act on them at the time that the incident is actually happening rather than bringing it back to the department and then having to submit a report and then having that report acted on,” he said.

The fire department has the legal means to write up tickets for things like open burning infractions, as well as offences related to the city’s fireworks bylaw.

On the evening of Feb. 23 at around 7 p.m., a robbery occurred at a convenience store on Croation Road.

According to Campbell River RCMP, a male entered the business yelling aggressively and charged at the cashier, who fled. The male left on foot taking the cash from the till with him.

He was tracked by a police dog to a nearby location, however the track was lost. Police believe the male may have fled from this location in a vehicle. The suspect male is described as Caucasian male approximately six feet tall, husky build, wearing a red winter jacket, a sports mask, and blue jeans. Anyone with information can contact the RCMP at (250)286-6221 or Crimestoppers at 1(800)2228477.

INTO

A Look Back

THE HISTORY OF THE CAMPBELL RIVER AREA

Suigyo No Majiwan: A friendship of trust and faith SUZANNE BONNER MUSEUM AT CAMPBELL RIVER

T

he history of Campbell River’s relationship with our sister-city Ishikari, Japan, goes back to the 1980’s, and is one of the longest standing town sisterhoods in Canada. After the Second World War, Canada was looking to make amends for the injustices inflicted upon Japanese Canadians, and this led many Canadian communities to sign ‘twinning’ agreements with Japanese communities.

The intention was to promote cultural understanding, and to establish friendships and economic ties.

In 1981, the town of Ishikari approached Jim Murray, the CP Air Public Relations Advisor for the Orient, asking him to assist them in finding a sister city in Canada. Campbell River exhibited many similarities with Ishikari, such as the importance of salmon to the community. Ishikari is the salmon capital of Hokkaido, Japan and, like Campbell River, hosts an annual Salmon Festival. The cities were a perfect match. So, two years later, delegates from both cities met and an official twinning agreement was signed.

Today, the Torii gate stands as a proud symbol of friendship between the two communities. Located across from the Museum in Sequoia Park, it was a gift presented to Campbell River from the town of Ishikari to commemorate the sister cities’ 10th anniversary.

In exchange, Campbell River

gifted a totem pole carved by Bill Henderson, which now stands out front of Ishikari’s City Hall.

Freeman Mary Ashley was a member of the City Council at the time the agreement was signed and has been involved in many city exchanges and the organization of anniversaries with Ishikari.

Ashley observes that “while we were unable to really

www.crmuseum.ca

establish an economic basis [with Ishikari], we have been extremely successful with establishing the cultural and educational parts of the relationship”. “The youth program” she adds, “has been enormously successful”.

For Ashley, one of the many highlights that arose from Campbell River’s twinning agreement with Ishikari has been the formation of long

7x3 7x3 CR CR Museum Museum

standing friendships between families of the two communities as a result of the youth exchange programs.

Mayor Andy Adams, past President of the Campbell River Twinning Society, says that there were approximately sixty twinning relationships formed initially between Canada and Japan, but that many of these relationships have lapsed with minimal activity.

A major contributing factor was the severe cut-back in funding from the government’s gaming branch.

Campbell River and Ishikari are the exception with a strong Senior Student Exchange and Young Ambassador Exchange programs that have resulted in close to 900 students travelling between our two cities since inception. Adams also notes that today the province is pushing for communities to establish ties with China, rather than maintain long-term relationships with Japan.

The Twinning Society’s President, Dave Armitage, hopes that the cultural exchange with Ishikari will continue despite past financial struggles.

According to Armitage, the student exchange programs have life changing effects on all who are involved.

Since the agreement was signed in ’83, Armitage feels that the relationship between Campbell River and Ishikari has evolved into much more.

“Today we are not just sister cities”, Armitage says, “We’ve become family”.

The Society celebrated its 30th anniversary in 2013. An exhibit will be installed in the Museum at Campbell River from March 18 to May 30, with a special opening reception on March 29, that will honour the history of the relationship between Campbell River and Ishikari.

The exhibit will focus on the key milestones of the twinning and showcase some of the major gifts exchanged between the two communities.

District addresses school closure concerns Two-year school MIKE DAVIES

CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

School District 72 released a fact sheet last week addressing concerns raised by the community regarding the possible closure of Discovery Passage Elementary, similar to a sheet released a few days earlier pertaining to the possible closure of Oyster River school.

The fact sheet touches on some concerns similar to those surrounding Oyster River – such as the possibility of selling off excess property before discussing school closure and whether teachers will move along with the students in the

event of a closure – but it also answered some questions raised that were specific to the possible Discovery Passage closure.

For example, what will happen with the new playground equipment recently installed at the school – with funds raised by that school’s Parent Advisory Council – if the school closes down?

“Should the Board of Education decide to close Discovery Passage Elementary,” the document reads, “the school district would work with the Discovery Passage Parent Advisory Council to determine what parent preference

is with regards to the playground For example, the preference may be to move the playground equipment to Ripple Rock Elementary or preference might be to investigate options with the City of Campbell River for the equipment to perhaps remain as a community playground.”

There were also concerns raised at the public consultation held at the school Jan. 25 that the parking lot at Ripple Rock may not be adequate to handle the increased traffic.

Senior staff says that future improvements to the parking lot would be considered by the Board of Education if issues

arise, but also say Ripple Rock’s parking was built according to BC Building Code and is appropriate, therefore, for a facility with the school’s capacity.

There are also concerns about what will happen with the Discovery Passage property itself should it cease to house a school, as it is also a designated emergency muster station for the area in the event of a natural disaster.

“The current designation of Discovery Passage Elementary as an emergency operation centre for north of the Campbell River was considered and discussed with the Strathcona

new contests regularly!

Emergency Preparedness Program prior to recommending the closure of Discovery Passage Elementary,” the document says. “The Strathcona Emergency Preparedness Program advised the school district that they would be able to identify an alternate location for this purpose should the Board decide to close the school.”

Closure would also mean the facility would be considered during Phase 2 of the 2015-2025 Facility Plan under “Disposal of Surplus Properties,” which the district says would begin, “no later than September 2018.”

The entire document can be found under ‘School Closures Consultations’ in the ‘Quick Links’ section on the district’s website (sd72. bc.ca).

The next series of public consultations are scheduled to take place March 1 at Discovery Passage and March 3 at Oyster River. Both meetings are scheduled from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. in the respective school’s gymnasium.

WIN THOU$AND$ IN PRIZE$!

The school district needs to submit its 2017 calendar to the Ministry of Education by March 31, and has presented it to the community for consideration.

The district has created a calendar for the next two years – they can do up to three years at a time.

“We went for a two year calendar because (the Ministry of Education) added an extra day for curriculum implementation to both of those years,” Superintendent Longridge said at this week’s public meeting of the Board of Education. Next school year (2016-17) will be much like this current year, should the calendar remain unchanged.

Two Professional Development days will occur before Labour Day weekend with schools opening on the following Tuesday, there will be a 10-day Spring Break, and a two-week break at Christmas.

The following year, however, the district will have a two-week Spring Break leading up to Easter weekend.

“The last time that we forced that together as a two-week break (when Easter was later in April), people felt it was way too late and too close to the end of the year, and people were not comfortable with that choice,” Longridge said. In 2018, Eater weekend begins March 30, which the consultation team decided is early enough to roll onto the end of Spring Break. The proposed calendars are on the district’s website (sd72. bc.ca) for the community to give feedback for the next 30 days.

“Should we get feedback, we’ll certainly consider it, and if there’s any need to change it based on that feedback, we can do that before it becomes a final calendar,” Longridge said.

Feedback on the calendar can be emailed to: school.calendar@ sd72.bc.ca

4x14 YOU! THANK

to the people and businesses of Campbell River for their outstanding support in making our 2016 Annual Awards and Wild Game Banquet a resounding success. This year we had a sold out event and thanks to the very generous donations from the community and the people at the banquet, we had a very successful year. Especially with the lack of funding for Environmental projects from Gaming, the funds raised at the banquet are very important towards supporting our numerous Fish and Wildlife projects which directly benefit the community.

Construction on alternate ways to remember loved ones such as columbaria cremation niches, and a green burial area will get underway at one of the city cemetery’s this spring or summer.

City council, at its Monday meeting, approve d sp end ing $175,000 on the first phase of an expansion plan for the Elk Falls Cemetery along Highway 28.

For the last two years, city staff have been working with LEES+Associates consultants on proposals to upgrade and expand Elk Falls Cemetery.

Coun. Ron Kerr said he was very pleased to see the project finally coming to fruition. “ This gets me so excited,” Kerr said. “I think this is one of the most important projects I’ve ever been involved with in my time on coun-

cil.”

The project is aimed at creating more traditional in-ground casket burial space and at the same time add more cremation interment and memorialization options to encourage more Campbell River residents to use Elk Falls Cemetery.

“The cemetery only serves approximately five per cent of the citizens who choose cremation. This equates to only 15 cremation interments out of more than 300 that occur in the community each year,” Richard Cook of LEES+ Associations told council at its Monday night meeting.

“Many Campbell River residents are purchasing alternative cremation interment options, provided by other communities such as Courtenay, or are choosing not to inter or be memorialized in any cemetery.”

Cook said a draft master plan was presented to the public last December

to begin this year

at which time questionnaires were given out.

The forms that were returned demonstrated over whelming support for proposals that included new traditional burial and cremation burial inventory, as well as options for woodland cremation gardens, community and family columbaria, scattering gardens, family vessels, boulder markers, upright markers, memorial walls and green burial.

With that in mind, Cook said his team has come up with a plan that balances what the community is asking for versus council’s budget.

Proposed are: 60 new in-ground casket burial lots with upright markers which will provide seven more years of capacity, new columbaria above ground cremation niches (good for five to seven years), a new green burial area with a communal marker (10 years), a new main entry drive sign and gate, improvements to the cemetery gatehouse including controlled access to washrooms during cemetery services, new benches, and new native tree and shrub planting. Coun.

Larry Samson questioned whether improvements to the parking lot, which is located on Highway 28, will be coming.

“One of the biggest complaints I hear is the people who attend the church service, they go up to the cemetery, they’re in the clothes they attended the church in and they get out to a gravel, sometimes muddy, parking lot.”

Ross Milnthorp, the city’s general manager of parks, recreation and culture, suggested council could consider adding parking lot improvements in the 2017 budget, possibly as part of phase two of the cemetery expansion plan. The city has been looking to expand the cemetery for years. Cook said Campbell River’s population is expected to grow by 16 per cent over the next 15 years and the cemetery’s traditional in-ground casket burial inventory is only expected to last for two more years.

“It is projected that the cemetery will see an average of 16 internments per year over the next 25 years.”

City considers delaying projects to rearrange City Hall KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

City council may put off a new entrance sign at the Maritime Heritage Centre parking lot and expanded video surveillance in order to rearrange office space inside City Hall.

The rationale behind the office space adjustments is to make room for the economic development function – formerly run out of the Enterprise Centre – and to create an office for city councillors.

Dave Morris, the city’s general manager of facilities and supply management, said staff is recommending that the office of the general manager of parks, recreation and culture be moved up to the second floor in order to accommodate the new economic position.

“The new economic development officer and support staff would occupy space vacated by the general manager, parks, recreation and culture, and adjacent office space which is next to the city manager’s office,” Morris wrote in a report to council.

Council announced last April that the city would be amalgamating Rivercorp – the city’s economic development arm – into City Hall operations.

The new economic development officer, which the city is in the

process of recruiting, will report to City Manager Deborah Sargent under the direction of city council to advise on how economic initiatives should align with council’s strategic goals.

The hiring process and full integration of the position into City Hall operations is expected to take six months.

In the meantime, council has also expressed interest in creating office space for city councillors to work out of.

Currently, only the mayor has office space inside City Hall.

Morris said staff are recommending the city’s vault room be repur-

posed as an office for the city’s bylaw enforcement team in order to make room for a councillor office.

“The relocation of the bylaw function to the vault would free up space for a councillor office with direct access to the mayor’s office, city manager’s office, and the executive assistant’s office for administrative support,” Morris said.

But in order to accomplish all of those reorganization strategies, Morris said council will likely have to put off a couple of projects that council had put into the 2016 budget.

Wet bulb temperature The cooling effect of evaporation is measured scientifically as the wet bulb temperature (WBT).

It is determined by placing a sock, which has distilled water wicking into it, over a temperature sensor such as a thermometer or thermal couple.

The amount of evaporative cooling is determined by the ambient temperature and humid-

ity — the higher the temperature the greater the rate of evaporation and cooling; the higher the humidity, the lower the rate of evaporation and cooling.

This is important to us because in hot weather we perspire, the sweat evaporates, and the cooling effect maintains our bodies at an optimum operating temperature of about 37°C. As the air temperature increases, we sweat more and cool more — providing the humid-

ity is low enough to allow evaporation. If a high temperature is combined with a high humidity, the evaporation stops and our bodies can no longer cool themselves.

At WBTs above 35°C we die from hyperthermic overheating. A healthy body can endure this situation for about six hours; a less fit body will die at a lower WBT.

One part of the world has already reached this fatal WBT. People do not have permanent settlements in the Northern Afar Desert in Africa, west of the Red Sea, because their bodies cannot endure the heat.

In July, 2015, the Iranian city of Bandar Mahshahr almost reached this WBT of 35°C when temperatures reached 46°C with a humidity of

The Strathcona Regional District will not be able to apply for a piece of the $218 million pie the federal and provincial governments are serving to local governments this year.

Tom Yates, acting chief administrative officer of the regional district, said the organization does not have any projects that are eligible.

“Staff are unable to identify any projects that would attract funding approval and therefore do not have a recommendation to apply for this round of the NBCF-SCF (New Building Canada FundSmall Communities Fund) for any area jurisdiction,” Yates said.

“In order to maximize the likelihood of success in obtaining future funding opportunities, staff will continue to advance the list of potential projects to develop strong ratio-

nale and greater project clarity.”

This is the second round of funding senior levels of government have made available under the Building Canada Fund.

During the f irst intake, the regional district submitted an application for two-thirds funding for seismic upgrades to the Quadra Island C ommunity Centre – the island’s designated emergency reception centre that, during a 2013 evaluation, was found to be at risk of unrepairable damage in the event of a significant earthquake.

The board was told at its last meeting that the application to the grant program was denied.

Yates said the regional district had applied under the ‘disaster mitigation infrastructure’ category but was told recently by the ministry of transportation and infrastructure that the project is not eligible for the Building Canada Fund and

was advised that the regional district not reapply.

Regional district staff also considered applying for lighting upgrades at Strathcona Gardens and the Quathiaski Cove sewer extension project on Quadra Island but neither project is far enough along, as projects must be shovel-ready to be eligible for funding.

Staff also looked at the Booster Pump Station in Area D but that project is already fully funded through federal grants, as well as proposed improvements to the water distribution system in Area D, but the scope of that project has not been fully defined yet. Yates said that project, as well as the sewer extension and lighting projects may be eligible in future intakes

of the Building Canada Fund.

Projects that are eligible for funding under the New Building Canada Fund must relate to and promote economic growth, a cleaner environment, and stronger communities.

The City of Campbell River has benefited from the Building Canada Fund in the past.

The Airport Runway Extension project garnered $4.7 million from the program and in 2014, the city was given access to a $3.4 million Building Canada grant given to the Strathcona Regional District for Area D sewer extension.

That money, however, was never used as Area D residents rejected city sewer service – and joining the city – in a referendum nearly two years ago.

VIJHL Playoffs all knotted up at 1 The Campbell River Storm’s VIJHL playoff series against the Saanich Braves is knotted at two going into tonight’s Game 3.

The Storm opened the series on Tuesday with a 5-2 victory at the Rod Brind’Amour Arena.

Campbell River “Stormed” into the lead with three unanswered goals in the first period by Alex Rosolowsky, Josh Coblenz and Austin Steger, followed by a fourth

by Rosolowsky in the second and the fifth in the third by Trevor Bottomley.

The Braves got on the scoresheet in the third period with two power

play goals, but were unable to make up enough ground to overcome the early-game dominance of the home team.

On Wednesday’s Game two at George Pearkes Arena, the Braves opened the scoring with a shorthanded goal in the first but Dylan McCann’s unassisted goal at 6:56 in the second tied it up. The Braves then went on the power play and scored the winning goal at 13:21.

Game 3 goes tonight (Friday) at the Brindy at 7:30 p.m. with game four back down Island in Saanich on Sunday at 3:30 p.m.

Nordics Dominate Western Championships Six Strathcona Nordics athletes attended the Haywood NorAm Western Canadian Championships in Prince George this past weekend, and over the course of three days, the athletes accumulated a total of eleven hard-earned medals.

“The athletes showed tremendous consistency and gritty racing,” says Nordics Head Coach Andrea Stapff, deeming the weekend, “better than fantastic.”

It turned out to be a family affair, with siblings Tallon and Aiden Noble, Ross and Stephen Lamon, and Alec and Emmy Stapff representing Strathcona Nordics.

In the Midget Girls category, Emmy Stapff from Campbell River brought home a bronze in the 1.2 km classic sprint race.

The Comox Valley was also well represented. In the Midget Boys category, Aiden Noble dominated all three of his races, coming away from the weekend with three gold medals. In the same category, Stephen Lamon was not far behind, taking home a silver and two bronze medals.

In the Juvenille Boys category Ross Lamon, also from the Comox Valley, came away with a bronze in the sprint race, and a silver in the the long distance classic race. In the competitive field of Junior Boys, Tallon Noble also had very strong races, taking home a silver and a bronze in the two distance events.

The Nordics team has had a very consistent season so far.

Their training base is evident, and Andrea Stapff says she is “very proud,” of her athletes.

For some however, there was not much time to recover.

Right now – from Feb. 25 to 28 – Aiden Noble, Stephen Lamon, Zander Swift, Taz Oldaker, Calder Guimond, Emmy Stapff, Amelia Wells, Emma Wong and Annelies Henckel are representing the Strathcona Nordics at the BC Winter Games in Penticton. Accompanying these athletes will be Head Coach Andrea Stapff, Tim PHOTO COURTESSY STRATHCONA NORDICS McGrady, and Derek Wells, who will be sharing coaching Strathcona Nordics skiiers put up a “better than fantasand ski waxing duties over the tic” performace last weekend at the Western Canadian course of the weekend.

Cale is a tenacious young hockey player who isn’t afraid to go into the corners and dig hard in puck battles. Cale skates hard to the net for goals and is a good back-checker as well. He plays well on the power play and in penalty kill situations on either wing or at centre, making him a very versatile and dynamic player. He has even played in goal. Cale keeps in top shape off the ice by running regularly as well.

Well done Cale!

Fishing Corner 7x14

with

Don Daniels

A few of the main fishing areas, including Kitty Coleman, Shelter Point and The Hump had good fish catch reports in the month of December.

The action has since slowed down but salmon are in the area – it’s just a matter of finding them. A few locals have been fishing outside the popular areas and day-to-day fishing conditions change but as long as bait is around the fish will be there.

The new Kingfisher lures are working well and if you can get two salmon in a day that’s good for this time of year.

I get a chance to drive to Sayward every Wednesday and Friday and at the end of my run is Kelsey Bay. I am hearing that some upgrades will be made at the marina and when the fishing season gets into full swing, some nice fish can be caught.

Some of the locals who get out in small boats can get into salmon.

Last year some sizes were in the 50-pound plus size. Anyone can get out and fish the wharf during the pink salmon run and tourists keep coming back year after year.

I am looking forward to my third

GET READY FOR SPRING

we do things. My attitude is keep it free and learn the basics of tying up basic patterns and later learning the traditional patterns that catch fish.

I supply the hooks, feathers and fur and we all tie at the same pace and we keep the sessions short and fun.

I also see how men, ladies and kids enjoy this fascinating hobby. When I first met the late Ralph Shaw in Courtenay six years ago, I remember Ralph telling me how he first started tying flies using deer hair and fat and I still have a Tom Thumb fly that he gave me. Ralph tied up hundreds of the deer hair pattern and donated all, if not most of them.

Trout fishing has picked up and the weather has given us a few good days where the larger lakes have seen a few anglers out. Water levels are high and if you can find a spot where a creek comes in, try fishing the area. I am finding that over the past two weeks, fishing the south end of local lakes was quite good using spoons and casting out. The spring stocking of Echo Lake will take place in a few weeks and water temperature will be close to 15 degrees.

This year’s Rotary Honours Concert celebrates Club’s 70th anniversary

The Naden Band will perform a concert that will benefit Campbell River’s Sea Cadets on March 3 at the Baptist Church auditorium.

Campbell River welcomes the Royal Canadian Navy’s Naden Band

T

he Pacific Fleet Dixie Jazz Ensemble will be performing in Campbell River in support of the local cadet youth programs.

This ensemble consisting of vocals/clarinet, saxophone, trumpet, trombone, sousaphone, guitar/banjo, and drums, is dedicated to the performance of early jazz standards known as Dixieland music.

With its upbeat and crowd-pleasing renditions of musical hits such as Louis Armstrong’s When the Saints Go Marching In, this group is a favourite

amongst audiences of all ages.

Pacific Fleet Dixie will be performing in the Campbell River Baptist Church auditorium on Thursday, March 3 at 7 pm.

Admission to the show is by donation, with proceeds going to support local cadets.

Sea Cadets is a program that provides opportunity and fosters the development of leadership skills, good citizenship and physical fitness through fun, challenging, well-organized and safe activities for youth aged 12-18.

Canada’s motto, A

Mari Usque ad Mare (“From Sea to Sea“) can be applied to Sea Cadets, who specialize in sailing, seamanship, shipboard life, naval communications, power boat handling, boat repair, marine engineering and have an interest in the activities of the Royal Canadian Navy. Our city Motto (“Enriched by Land and Sea”) describing Campbell River’s situation and fortune is another good reason to instil a maritime perspective on young people in our community who may find future employment or recreation locally.

The Sea Cadets program is always looking for new members, so youth aged 12 -18 can come and check it out.

The Navy League of Canada - Campbell River branch is a nonprofit, volunteer organization and a registered charity.

League members (mostly cadet parents) ensure financial, accommodation and transportation support for the Sea Cadet program and services that are not provided by the DND. This is a low barrier youth program; all core activities are no charge to the cadets.

This year’s Rotary Honours Concert will be held in conjunction with a celebration of the club the Rotary Club of Campbell River’s 70th anniversary.

And in line with Rotary International President, “Ravi” Ravindran’s presidential theme: Be a gift to the world, the club has decided to make this year’s concert a “Gift to the City.”

The Rotary Club of Campbell River (club 6224), sponsored by the Rotary Club of Courtenay was chartered on April 10, 1946. A celebration of this event was held at the community hall in Campbellton. When established, Dr. Ken Craig was the first president and other board members included: F.E. McCarthy (treasurer), Carl O Thulin, Oscar Thulin, A.G. McLean, K.W. Brown, J.H. Burgess.

Although the club charter night was April 10, several (weekly) meetings of the new club took place before then. The first meeting was held on March 13, 1946. The club immediately became involved in community activities and one of their earliest community projects was supporting the construction of a new hall for the Boy Scout’s.

Over the years the club has been a part of a number of significant com-

Some of those significant projects include involvement in the building of the community halls, the Centennial Outdoor Pool and ice arena, the Rotary Beach Park and Seawalk and the Carihi Infant and Toddler Centre. The latest additions to this list include the children’s Splash Park and The Suspension Bridge at Elk Falls.

Additionally the Rotary Club of Campbell River sponsored the chartering of several new rotary clubs in the area including Port Hardy, Sayward, Gold River and the Campbell River Daybreak Rotary.

Family feels ‘very blessed’ to have found historic home LINDSAY CHUNG CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

On Wednesday afternoon, five-year-old Cora Denne went up the ladder and walked inside the yellow 103-year-old house sitting on wooden posts on her family’s property and picked out which of the five bedrooms would be hers.

The home had arrived on Cora’s family’s farm that morning at 4 a.m., and it will become the family home to Cora, her brother Keenan, 2, and her parents, Katie and Kyle. The Dennes own Holly Hill Farm, but there has never been a house on the property and they’ve been driving back and forth from the farm to their home in Willow Point since November, 2011. Katie

and Kyle were going to build a house on the farm but it never worked out; what has worked out for them is a unique story of an old farmhouse in Victoria that will become a farmhouse once again.

Katie and Kyle found their home last fall and had it moved from Oak Bay. Katie and Kyle were visiting Katie’s brother in Victoria for Halloween, and Kyle was sending Katie links of houses that could be moved.

There had been about a dozen other people who were interested in the house and quite a few people had put offers on it, but it wasn’t deliverable because of its width.

“Most of the houses they move are 34 feet or less, and they call anything more than 37 feet ‘hell on wheels’ and this

LINDSAY CHUNG/CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

Kyle Denne and daughter Cora stand on the porch of their new home, which is currently sitting on blocks on their Holly Hill Farm property.

is 50 feet,” she said. “One guy in Nanaimo was going to cut it right in half and they were going to cut it in a couple pieces but it still wasn’t going to work.”

Katie and Kyle decided they would just “throw in an offer”, and then they got a call back and found out that the house could

be delivered three different ways. They didn’t wait long before making the decision to go ahead and buy the house. Nickel Bros. Moving Ltd. began moving the house from 430 St. Patrick St. in Oak Bay on Feb. 18, and it was loaded onto a barge Feb. 20 and towed to Campbell River. After spend-

ing a couple of days at the dock, the house was driven up to Park Road on Feb. 24.

“It was such smooth sailing,” said Katie. “The move went really smooth until they hit Park Road.

That was way more difficult because they had to raise every line. It was challenging because the

house is 50 feet wide.”

As soon as they came onto the property, they had to hook an excavator onto the truck to pull the house in because the truck’s wheels would have spun on the soft ground.

“It started at midnight, and we were here at 4 a.m.,” said Katie. The fivebedroom, 3,000-squarefoot home has 10-foot cei lings dow nst airs and eight-foot ceilings upstairs and wood floors.

“We’ll be banging nails and putting a whole lot of blood, sweat and tears into it,” said Katie who is excited that her family finally has a house at the farm.

“We operate a business here, this is our livelihood, this is our passion and this is where our kids love to be and where we love to be,” said Katie.

“This is our home and now we actually get to be here. The farm itself, when I bought it from my grandparents, I was like ‘that’s where I want to raise my kids; that’s the life I want them to have.’ Now we actually get to be here, which for a while I wasn’t sure was ever going to happen unless I moved into my fifth-wheel. We’re pretty lucky. We feel very, very blessed.”

Katie’s grandparents, Danny and Mary McKenzie, bought the farm in the early 1950s. Katie and Kyle bought the farm in November 2011.

Katie is a teacher who teaches special education students, and she started teaching kids on the farm, combining her love for farming and her love for teaching.

Marion Elanor McGillivray, 89 January 2, 1927–February 16, 2016

In loving memory of my son

Steven George Thomas Malley Class 1 Grandson of George and Amy Vanstone July 2, 1955 - Feb. 26, 2009

PROCESS

Marion passed away in her sleep, February 16 at Campbell River Hospital after a lengthy struggle with COPD. She had been surrounded by family and friends sharing in her love, good humour and cheekiness right up to her peaceful departure.

Marion was born in Estevan, Saskatchewan on January 2, 1927 to Albert and Marguerite Holtz (Marion). She was the town’s New Year’s baby and the older sister to two brothers, Elvin and Allan. She trained as a Psychiatric Nurse at Weyburn Mental Hospital, marrying Norman Hemphill there and raising a family of six as they moved across the prairies to the west coast. Marion was blessed with a boundless love for all children and a favourite of nephews, nieces, and neighborhood children wherever she lived. To her grandchildren and all young people who came to know her she was “Granny” - full of kindness and wisdom and always supportive. While free time is a rarity with large families, Marion enjoyed her participation in the Fraternal Order of Eagles, Aerie #3097, and cherished worshiping at the Salvation Army Church.

Marion was predeceased by her parents, Albert and Marguerite Holtz, and by her brother, Allan Holtz, Union Bay. She is survived by her brother Elvin (Colleen) Holtz, Red Deer, Alberta; and her children: Larry (Nit) Hemphill, Thailand; Harry Hemphill, Campbell River; Robert (Colleen) Hemphill, Port Hardy; Richard (Norma) Hemphill, Port Hardy; Kathi (Chris) Camilleri, Campbell River; and Arlana (Dwayne) Christensen, Campbell River. Her grandchildren are Becky, Scott, Shawn, Jessie, Lucy, Ritchie, Norman, Aaron, Colten, Landon, Alyssa and Dylan. Her great -grandchildren are Shae, Cambria, Isabella, Ethen, Nevaeh, Sarah, Orion, and Austin.

The family wishes to thank the staff at Campbell River Hospital for the kindness and care given our mother in her prolonged stay, and for putting up with a steady flow of visitors to her bedside. In lieu of flowers, please donate in Marion’s name to the Salvation Army Church.

A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, June 4, 2016 at 2pm, at Salvation Army Church, 291 McLean Street, Campbell River.

Too fast has another year gone by Since the day fate plucked you from our lives.

Wife, Mother, Grandmother.

To bare such loss we’ve clung together Your will to stay was ever strong Alas, even strength can only battle so long In the story our paths were to part Memories of you live glowing in our hearts Where you lead we cannot follow Know the love you shared was never hollow To touch your hand, to kiss your face Always welcome returned warmth and embrace May the joy of your life bring light to our tears As we continue to love you throughout the years Farewell and goodbye are not the end You are treasured within until we meet again

Community celebrates philanthropy of Future 15 LINDSAY CHUNG CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

They have different backgrounds and interests and are excelling at a wide variety of careers, but some of the qualities the winners of the inaugural Future 15 awards have in common are a passion for Campbell River, a desire to give back and ideas for how to ensure our community’s future is bright.

These characteristics and many more were celebrated Feb. 19 during the Campbell River and District Chamber of

Commerce’s Future 15 celebration at the Maritime Heritage Centre.

The awards were open to young professionals between the ages of 19 and 45, and the Chamber received 52 nominations.

The 15 winners were: Dr. Hanif Paroo, a doctor of optometry at IRIS Discovery Harbour; Ahmed Siah, a research scientist at the BC Centre for Aquatic Health Sciences; Amanda May Raleigh, culture and community manager at Broadstreet Properties; Amber Zirnhelt, community planning and development

services manager at the City of Campbell River; Derek Lamb, a chartered professional accountant with Chan Nowosad B o at e s ; D r. Ta ny a Flood, an optometrist at FYidoctors Campbell River; Karen Stewart, a chartered professional accountant with Chan Nowosad Boates; Erica Chan-Lafrance, a partner at Chan Nowosad Boates; Curtis Wilson, an artist, referrals officer for the Nanwakolas Council and elected councillor for the Campbell River Band; Myriah Foort, finance manager at the City of

Campbell River; Rachel Blaney, MP for North Island-Powell River; Dr. Robin James Evans of Novos Innovations; Shannon Baikie; regional manager of community and labour market services with North Island Employment; Heather Brown, a research assistant at the BC Centre for Aquatic Health Sciences; and Wyth Marshall, a research scientist with the BC Centre for Aquatic Health Sciences.

Colleen Evans, president and CEO of the Campbell River and District Chamber of Com-

merce, found the event very inspiring.

“Being in that room and hearing [about the winners], I think that was such a big part of why this was so important to do,” she said. “If you’re not in that network, you’re not aware of the incredible contributions and talent in our community.”

This is the first time young professionals are being honoured like this, and Evans says there are three main reasons the Chamber of Commerce wanted to put on these awards.

“No. 1 was to profile

people in our community who are already contributing to a healthy economy, a positive environment and have a deep commitment to volunteerism,” she said. “From the Chamber’s perspective, we need a vibrant workforce to meet the needs of our employers; we need to attract and retain young professionals in our community to meet the needs of those employers. And we need to have young people engaged in the community through volunteerism - they’re our future board members,

they’re our future councillors, they’re the future philanthropists in our community.”

Evans says the Chamber wants to keep working with the winners and will create a group for the Future 15 alumni so they can get together and discuss issues such as social enterprise, social innovation, education and business development over the next year.

“These are 15 people to watch over the next couple of years. These are people that are shaping what’s going to happen in Campbell River.”

BOOMERS & Beyond 7x14 her childhood Author to speak at Museum about living on a floathouse and in logging camps Alistair Taylor, Campbell River Mirror

Floathouse living was a unique lifestyle that evolved on the British Columbia coast a hundred years ago and many seniors in the area remember spending their childhoods in floathouse camps.

This portable home base could be moved from one working location to another. Living in these small dwellings, adjacent to rugged and isolated terrain, and dealing with the daily rise and fall of the tides presented many challenges.

When Myrtle Siebert was a young girl, she lived on a floathouse in Port Neville Inlet. She was born at Vancouver General Hospital, then when it was considered safe for her to travel, her mother carried her aboard the Union Steamship vessel for the two-day trip to Port Neville. She

Healthyway makes Alumni join students at rally a healthy switch JASMINE MACGREGOR CARIHI MIRROR

CASSIDY HINSBERGER CARIHI MIRROR

“[There’s] a growing interest in overall wellness and healthy living,” says one of Healthyway Natural Foods’ frequent customers. Which means Healthyway’s location change from 12th Avenue to 1121 Cedar St. happened at the perfect time.

On Oct. 17, 2015, Healthyway closed the 12th Avenue location doors for good in order to move across from the Community Centre with more products, aisle space and a fresh look to match its fresh produce.

The store re-opened at the new location on Oct. 19, 2015, where there was no shortage of community interest in the new building.

The owners, Donna and Will Pakosz, say the new location “feels like home” and the “move is part of the development of [their] business.”

The Pakoszes plan to open a whole foods, organic plant-strong and ethical meat cafe in

the new location midspring. An “amazing and experienced” chef has been hired for the cafe who shares similar philosophies as those involved with Healthyway of “eating ethically and sustainably.” It is planned that a variety of dynamic menu items will be offered, including a selection of smoothies, juices, raw vegan treats, soups and as many “inseason” selections as appropriate. The cafe aims to be open to a wide range of food philosophies and to have a theme of “ healthy culture around food.”

The process of the location change took over a year of hard work but the new location has been receiving plenty of positive feedback and is proving to be an “accessible environment to shop in,” with one online review claiming: “Healthyway is the best organic grocery store [they’ve] been to on the island.”

While walking into Healthyway, it is plain to see the store supports

organic and local businesses, but what isn’t so easily noted is where these morals derive from.

For the past 10 years, the Pakoszes have owned Healthyway Natural Foods but their interest in supporting local businesses and sustainability in the environment came long before their ownership of the store. Their ideologies came from a multitude of aspects in their lives, such as hiking to form a connection to nature, and by taking a general interest in politics surrounding food and the environment.

The business is very family-oriented and the Pakoszes are very open to the opinions and feedback of their families and staff, even casting votes for the soon-to-bereleased name of the cafe and asking opinions and ideas for the menu items.

Overall, the move has been a positive experience for Healthyway, even enabling the team to “feel closer to the Campbell River community.”

The Carihi gym was full of Tyee spirit last Tuesday morning (Feb. 16) during Carihi’s annual pep rally.

The crowd was a sea of blue, yellow, white and green as students dressed in their grade colours and cheered on their peers in gradeto-grade competitions.

Students up for the challenge were able to take part in a pudding-eating contest, a dance-off, a relay race and a good old-fashioned tug of war. All just for fun, of course.

The fun continued as former Carihi grads were invited to dust off their sneakers and participate in a studentversus-alumni basketball game. The game was organized as a way of incorporating Carihi’s 50th anniversary into the event. Team Alumni played against a team of students from the current junior and senior basketball teams.

For Jasbir Bains, it had been over 30 years since he had played on the Carihi gym floor.

“I graduated in 1978,”

Bains shared. “Most of my alumni teammates probably weren’t even born then.”

Bains recalled what it was like as a Carihi student playing basketball.

“In 1978, Campbell River wasn’t that big,” he said. “The most exciting thing in the wintertime was basketball. That was the main event in Campbell River. Every game was how it was [at the pep rally]. The bleachers would be full!

We used to run out of the boy’s change room and the floor would be lined with cheerleaders.

Everyone in the crowd

would be shouting and doing cheers. The atmosphere [last week] was just like going back in time.”

Bains’ daughter, Sarah, is a Grade 11 student at Carihi and was a player on the student team.

She shot an impressive three-pointer during the game, making her dad proud.

She commented on what it was like to play against him: “It’s really cool because he played for Carihi and now I play for Carihi and I’m following in his footsteps.

It was pretty informal, since it was just a pep

rally game. There was still a little bit of competition between us.”

A 29-29 tie after four quarters caused the crowd to chant for a Bains-versus-Bains shootout.

“It was very touching that her and I were able to do that,” the elder Bains said.

The game ended in an alumni win, but at the end of the day, it was all about having fun.

“I really enjoyed [the pep rally],” said Jasbir Bains. “It promotes school spirit, which is really important, and brings people together.”

of local citizen — and owner of Baba Ganouj — Merell Awad, in to Campbell River. Awad is a Syrian-Canadian and feels responsible to do her best to save her family members.

“Those who are coming don’t have any country left, so they’ll be loyal to Canada and try to build a new life,” Awad explains. “Most are well educated; engi-

neers, marine engineers, accountants, [have] degrees in French, doctors, pharmacists, all will be a good value to the community.”

Julie Gole from CRBC is glad to be given the opportunity to help.

“I personally have not been in a war-torn country and can only imagine the devastation of having no choice but to flee my home with only a suit-

case,” she said. “We have an opportunity to show love to a few people. It’s a no-brainer … These are relatives of the owners of Baba Ganouj. Nephews, sisters, mother, brother, friends. If it was my family, I’d hope someone would help me get them to safety.”

Awad is proud of Canada and its history of helping others. She is encouraged by the com-

munity’s willingness to work together and the opportunity to share the responsibility with others.

If you are interested in providing help for Awad’s family’s arrival to Canada, there are several fundraisers on the horizon. Some dates to put on your calendar are: n On Feb. 27, there will be a Sadie Hawkins Dance with the Impalas

at the Campbell River Community Centre from 8 p.m. to midnight.

Tickets are available at the Mirror office, Baba Gannouj, On Line Gourmet, Works d’Art and Inspirations on Quadra. n On April 7 at 6 p.m., there will be a Burger & Beverage night at SoCal, accompanied by a silent auction. Tickets will be sold at the door. n On April 23, there

will be a huge Syrian dinner at the Campbell River Baptist Church, along with a silent and live auction. Tickets are $40 each. n Another fundraiser is in the works but has yet to have a confirmed date. Hosted by Campbell River Baptist Church, this would be an appetizer sampling night featuring local chefs and entertainment.

Wounded Warrior Run BC raises awareness, raises money and connects people LINDSAY CHUNG CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

I

t’s an awareness campaign and a fundraiser. It’s a physically demanding relay run that covers challenging terrain. But for founder and lead runner Allan Kobayashi, the Wounded Warrior Run BC has become something even more important — a chance for people affected by post-traumatic disorder (PTSD) to connect and help each other.

Kobayashi, who was diagnosed with PTSD and operational stress injury (OSI) in 2006, founded Wounded Warrior Run BC, which traverses the length of Vancouver Island each February, after a conversation with a good friend in 2013 about running.

“I was struggling and I was going through some pretty hard times in my journey and that’s kind of where I started to find that running was my key, running was my free tool that I had readily available and accessible,” he said. “So with using running and wanting to reach out and touch people and tell people my story, two and two went together.

It was actually through conversations, ‘why the hell don’t we just run down the Island and talk about how running is helping me cope with post-traumatic stress disorder.’”

The first Wounded Warrior Run BC took

place in 2014, and for the first year, Kobayashi mainly wanted to get out there and share his story. In one way, the run also represents going through struggles and pushing forward.

“One of the best quotes I’ve heard and I love and I live by now is ‘We have to be willing to step through the fear to get where we want to go,’” he said. “It’s one of my favourite things I’ve ever heard because it’s so true.”

Kobayashi hopes Wounded Warrior Run BC will keep getting bigger and bigger and keep touching more and more people, because

it’s those moments of connecting with other human beings that are so powerful and so beautiful — within the team itself and in the communities they run through.

“It’s not just about the soldier, it’s not just about EMS, it’s not just about anybody — it’s everybody,” he said. “It’s

a human being — it’s not a soldier, it’s not a police officer, it’s not a paramedic, it’s not subject to your title as what you do as a job. It’s the human being that suffers. It’s the human being that experiences a traumatic event and how they deal with it.

That’s my message. I want to get out to every human being and say ‘you know what? You may have PTSD, come and join the family, come and talk. If you don’t want to talk, just be with like-minded people who understand and get it, and find comfort in this. That’s what’s amazing.’”

The third annual Wounded Warrior Run BC began Feb. 22 in Port Hardy. The sevenday relay run covers 600 kilometres , stopping in communities from Port Hardy to Victoria to raise public awareness and financial support for Wounded Warriors Canada, a non-profit charity that provides programs for those suffering from PTSD and other mental health issues. This year’s run ends Feb. 28 in Victoria with a finale at 4 p.m. at Saunders Subaru with Lt.-Gov. Judith

Guichon.

When the team arrived in Campbell River on Wednesday, Jeff Kibble, the run’s public relations officer and a runner with the team, said the run was going “awesome.”

“Our mission is to raise awareness for mental health issues for veterans and serving RCMP and first responders, and so far in Port Hardy and in Woss, Sayward, Port McNeill, we’ve connected with Legions and with people and opened up and talked about various mental health issues, so we’re achieving our goal and our aim, which is really good,” said Kibble.

“People are incredibly generous and they’re also donating funds and services to help the team. For example, here in Campbell River, the Comfort Inn has given us rooms at cost.

“The Legion is welcoming us in and giving us dinner. Up in Sayward, we stayed at the Sayward Valley Resort and Terry, the owner, gave us rooms for the night. He’s ex-Army and he’s a guy we’ve connected with and shared stories with and that’s our goal. It’s a big, big

success.”

During their stop in Campbell River, the Wounded Warrior Run BC team received a $1,050 donation from the Campbell River Legion and had a spaghetti dinner made by the Legion Ladies Auxiliary.

The Wounded Warrior Run BC left Serious Coffee in Campbell River — which has been collecting donations for the run and held a sendoff celebration with live music — Thursday morning (Feb. 25) and then ran to Oyster River, where the team made a presentation at the Oyster River Fire Department, on their way to Comox.

Angel Kibble, the run’s accommodations and recovery officer, was diagnosed with PTSD in 2012 after unknowingly living with it for a couple of years. She and Jeff both feel the run is important for creating

understanding — which comes out of creating awareness.

“The issues at hand, PTSD, have touched our lives directly,” said Angel. “It’s touched our lives, our family, in other ways — and everyone on the team.

The stigma needs to be lifted, and people need to be aware that they are not alone, they can talk.

There are other people out there.

“The more people that are aware and educated, the more people are going to be able to come forth and say ‘my name’s Angel Kibble and I have PTSD.’ “It shows strength to be able to step forward and say it; whereas, a lot of people feel it shows weakness, and it’s exactly the opposite.”
