GRAND GRAD FOR TIMBERLINE

$1,000 reward offered for leg-hold trapperSIAN THOMSON COURIER-ISLANDER

A $1,000 reward is being offered for information leading to the conviction

of the person responsible for set-ting an illegal leg-hold trap in Campbell River.

Because of the story in the June 13 edition of the Courier-Islander, the Association for the Protection of Fur-Bearing

Animals (APFA) issued a news release and are calling on the government to ban all body-grip-ping traps and they are offering a $1,000 reward for the arrest/con-viction of the person responsible for setting the trap that injured ‘Bowser’ the cat.

“Traps are man-made devices created to hold an animal against their will,” said Adrian Nelson, spokesperson for APFA. “No

matter how they are designed or regulated, they will catch non-target species and domestic pets and they will cause pain and suffering.”

In British Columbia, it is legal to set a leg-hold trap within 200 metres from a dwelling including a home or school.

Over the past few years, the organization has seen an increase in the number of pets

(particularly dogs) caught in the devices.

In the most recent incident, it was noted that the leg-hold was not legal, however the only dif-ference between this trap and those deemed usable under cur-rent regulations is a minuet spa-cing of the jaws or a thin piece of rubber.

Dumped garbage fi realmost gets away

COURIER-ISLANDER

It’s bad enough being a slob, don’t be an idiot too.

An attempt to burn illegally dumped garbage ignited a large brush fire on the Duncan Bay Main logging road June 4.

Just after 1 p.m., the Coastal Fire Centre in Errington contacted Campbell River Fire Rescue reporting a large brush fire on the Dun-can Bay Main logging road approximately one kilometre south of Willis Road.

“On arrival, crews joined

firefighters from the provincial Wildfire Pro-tection Branch, who were already fighting the fire,” says fire chief Ian Baikie. “Campbell River firefight-ers supplied water to the scene, and the two fire agencies worked together to extinguish a 30 by 60 metre fire.”

Investigators have determined the blaze was caused by humans, or semblance thereof.

“There was a consider-able amount of illegally dumped garbage at the scene, and it appears that someone had attempted to burn the garbage as

a method of disposal,” Baikie said. “Unfortu-nately, this individual was very reckless as the fire had been set right at the edge of the forested land. With the dry stretch of weather we’ve been having, the fire spread quickly into the adjacent grass and the trees.”

Campbell River Fire Res-cue reminds the public of the importance of exercis-ing caution when using back roads during fire season, and to thoroughly extinguishing recreation-al fires until they are cold to the touch when leaving an area.

Fire crews doused the fi re before it could spread

Firefighters try to quell a brush fire started by people burning garbage.

EDUCATION

The nuts and bolts of the teacher negotiationsSIAN THOMSON COURIER-ISLANDER

Campbell River and District Teachers’ Association Pres-

ident Elaine Thompson, outlined a side by side comparison of what each side has brought to the table in terms of frame-works for settlement on salary, class size and com-position, working condi-tions and teacher benefits, and concessions.

“Of particular note is that BC Public School Employers Association (BCPSEA) has actually reduced their wage offer after we made an offer well within “the Zone”,” said Thompson.

Regarding the term of the contract, the BC Teachers’ Federation (BCTF) has advocated for a four year agreement while the BCPSEA and government has wanted the “ten year deal” for most of the past year. BCPSEA have reduced the term to six years. The BCTF compromised by going to five years.

If either party is unhappy with the out-come of the government’s appeal of the court case, where they have lost two court rulings on class size and composition, the entire collective agree-ment can be terminated and a new round of bar-gaining begins.

Teachers are coming off of two years of a zero salary increase and BCPSEA, to date, will not put a wage increase into year one and wants one to one-and-a-half per cent increases per year, as a pattern. This translates to July 2014, one per cent, Feb. 2015, two per cent, July, 2016, one per cent, May 2018, one per cent, July, 2018, half a per cent, and May 2019, one per cent.

BCTF has countered with the $5,000 sign-ing bonus to recognize teachers have had two zeros (increases) in a row. BCPSEA has offered a $1,200 pro-rated signing bonus.

BCTF has proposed a $200 million fund, subject to nego-tiation, to deal with class size and class composition and funding would be jointly administered locally as they did with mediator Vince Ready in 2005/2006.

Apart from adding $15 million to the Learning Improve-ment Fund, there has been no commit-ment on class size and composition. The government says that improvements have to be made by reducing benefits to other parts of the col-

lective agreement.The BCPSEA and

government have not recognized the two court losses. The 2013 ruling restored the stripped lan-guage back to 2002. This means that classes organ-ized in violation of that language is ‘grievable’. The cost of settling those grievances could be in the hundreds of millions of dollars.The BCTF has proposed $200 million to resolve the retroactive grievances to address proposals of grid reduction, prep time, improved maternity leave and professional develop-ment funding.

BCPSEA and govern-

ment originally proposed significant concessions be made by the BCTF includ-ing capping sick leave, zero hours of work and work year protection, an evaluation system with no due process to be decided by adminis-tration with no criteria.

BCTF insisted all these con-cessions be removed.

BCPSEA has revised its work year/hours of work to allow districts to vio-late the exist-ing collective agreement with an arbitration

process with no lawyers and with the union pay-ing one half the costs.

BCPSEA has with-drawn most of the con-cessions as a result of the strike vote except for work year/hours of work [email protected]

B.C. Teachers now into a full scale strike“We waited 48 hours, it was close, and what we got back is worse than what we got,” - IkerSIAN THOMSON COURIER-ISLANDER

A study session for Campbell River teachers morphed into a rally through down-

town Campbell River Monday fol-lowing the announcement that a full scale strike is on.

Jim Iker, the President of the BC Teachers’ Federation, said in a news conference Monday morning that the government squandered an opportunity to negotiate a contract over the weekend.

“The union lowered its wage demand to eight per cent over five years, down from 9.75 per cent over six years, along with a $5,000 signing bonus,” said Iker. “The government responded by dropping their wage offer to seven percent from 7.25 per cent over six years. We made a lot of moves, we waited 48 hours, it was close, and what we got back is worse than what we got previously.”

“The provincial government

did not respond to our proposal outlined on Friday until Sunday evening, almost 48 hours later,” said Elaine Thompson, Pres-ident of the Campbell River and District Teachers’ Association. “After the announcement was made that the government was unprepared, unwilling and ultim-ately unhelpful and that what

we got back was reduced, well, that was the straw that broke the camel’s back.”

Thompson said she had not planned on having a rally during the study session, but when the 300-plus teachers in attendance at the study session heard the press conference by Iker, they got angry.

“I know some very conserva-tive teachers who were encour-aging us to rally, because we can only be bullied for so long, they are trying to break the unions and we need to dig in and fight back. This has really brought the membership together,” said Thompson.

Thompson said that while they cannot get an agreement on class size and composition back into the contract until after the BC Court of Appeal has heard the case, the BCTF did ask for money on the table, into a working fund, to address the issue of class size and composition in the interim.

“They denied that as well,” she said.

The government had offered teachers a $1,200 signing bonus if a contract is reached by the end of June.

“In case people are outraged at our asking for a $5,000 signing bonus, there are good reasons for that, and it is a starting pos-ition,” said Thompson. “We are

accepting a third year of zero increases to our salary grid for this year. Increases to our grid are much more beneficial to us than a cash bonus. However, the other public sector unions will go to their ‘Me Too’ clauses even though they have not just lived through two previous years of zero. So the only way we can sort of catch up is by asking for a decent cash bonus for this year.”

Education Minister Peter Fass-bender said the government’s proposal is as good as it’s going to get.

“Our goal remains to get to an agreement by June 30 and put this disruption behind us,” he said.

NEIL CAMERON COURIER-ISLANDER

Campbell River RCMP are investigating the removal of anti-amalgamation signs from vari-ous locations in Area D.

Witnesses say that a man in a blue pick-up like truck was seen taking the signs down and then making off with them.

A licence number was taken and the RCMP have opened a file on the case.

Several other signs were found in a ditch near Ocean Grove School where a public open house was being held Monday evening.

The group opposed to the amalgamation had set up a special event tent outside the school, while inside city officials were available to answer questions.

Joining the City of Campbell River and con-necting to its sewer system will cost 208 Area D property owners $11,100 if they vote yes to the referendum June 28

The deal would include a $9,300 initial fee and a proposed $1,800 hook up fee.

The city has also started the Alternative Approv-al Process for ratepayers of Campbell River. Under the AAP at least 10 per cent of city ratepayers would have to vote no to the proposed amalgama-tion, a project that would cost them $24 a year for 20 years if it goes ahead.

The basis of the proposal would have the city extend sewer services to 530 properties in area D. They would also become taxpayers in the city of Campbell River.

Earlier this year the Area D Ratepayer Asso-ciation said they gathered a petition that they said showed most residents will vote no in the referendum.

“The residents wish to live in quiet, spacious and friendly, single family neighbourhoods with lim-ited commercial development,” said the ratepayers press release. “Areas of open and green space shall be close by, protected and open to all to enjoy. The community does not aspire to become a suburb of Campbell River, an incorporated municipality, town or village nor a coastal strip development. The residents envision a low density, rural and suburban settlement offering an alternative to city life.” They said that sentiment was strongly endorsed by over 80 per cent of those residents polled by the people who signed the petition.

Cat trapperreward offeredContinued from page 1.

“We have asked the Minister of Forests, Lands and Natural Resources to update regulations — if not simply ban the use of leg-hold traps for well over a year,” said Nelson. “These requests, which include the use of signage, trap identification markings and three separ-ate municipalities who have voted to ban the use of traps in their communities, have gone unanswered.”

Nelson said due to the Courier-Islander article telling Bowser’s story, the group is now re-ignit-ing the call to ban the use of leg-hold traps in all communities throughout British Columbia.

In the early hours of June 11, Bowser, a six month old domes-tic short-hair cat, limped back to his Shetland Road home, dragging a leg-hold trap, which was clamping down on his rear leg. Owner Courtnee Atkins released the leg and thought because of the severe wound, that the leg was fractured. Vet-erinarian Dr. Helen Kwong, who opened her office at 2:45 a.m. for a frantic Atkins, said that there was an open contamin-ated wound half way between the ankle and toes and that the

injury was extremely painful, “Due to the size of the trap

and the size of his small leg, Bowser was spared from hav-ing his leg severely maimed,” said Kwong. “He was sent home with antibiotics, and pain medication. An SPCA investiga-tion has been started and the conservation office will also be investigating.”

“Every day we see the horrific results of a willfully ignorant provincial government,” said Nelson. “The time has come for us to be the modern, environ-mentally-savvy people we claim to be in this province and move past archaic, cruel tools. Join us in asking our MLAs to act now.”

APFA is offering the $1,000 reward to anyone who can provide information leading to the conviction of the person(s) responsible in the use of the illegal leg-hold trap in Camp-bell River. Additionally, APFA has created a blog (FurBea-rerDefenders.com) helping resi-dents locate and contact their MLAs to demand for change.

For more information, and to identify the person responsible, contact [email protected] or call 1-604-435-1850.

City opens up parking lotsto accommodate tax peakCOURIER-ISLANDER

Campbell River’s City Hall is making room for an anticipated rush of peak

period property tax payments again this year.

As in past years, as of Mon-day, parking stalls on either side of City Hall will be avail-able to the public so people will have close access to the building.

The City encourages the public to use the large parking lot with access off the Alder St. hill as there are 47 parking stalls available for public use. Parking stalls numbered 1-38 and 41-49 are designated public parking stalls between June 16 and July 2 inclusive. And again this year, in the event of a line-up, a Finance Depart-ment employee will review paperwork to make sure all forms are completed with cor-rect details before people get to the counter.

“Campbell River property

tax payments made in person at City Hall tend to peak dur-ing the final two weeks lead-ing up to the July 2 deadline,” says Dennis Brodie, the City’s Finance Operations Supervisor. “People can expect to wait in line a bit during this time, and between closer parking and a review of the paperwork ahead of time, we’re aiming to reduce the payment processing time during the final rush.”

In-person payments can be made at City Hall by cash, cheque or debit card. (The City asks you to ensure debit card transaction limits will cover the amount of taxes due.)

The City cannot accept pay-ment by credit card.

Property tax payments can also be mailed, and post-dated cheques are accepted.

A secure drop-box for post-dated cheques is available at the main door to City Hall.

“Tax notices sent at the end of May included an insert that listed all the various methods

available to property owners for property tax payment,” Brodie says.

“The easiest way for people to reduce the wait time is to pay property taxes and apply for the Home Owner Grant via the internet.”

Home Owner Grants claimed online for Campbell River properties continue to increase, from 16.91 per cent of grants in 2010 to 26.35 per cent claimed online in 2013.

How-to information for online payments has been posted on the City’s website (www.camp-bellriver.ca under What’s New.

Property owners are remind-ed that in order to avoid a 10 per cent penalty, pay-ment and completed Home Owner Grant Appli-cations must be received by July 2.

tion from the Young Profes-sionals of Campbell River (YPCR), the City of Campbell River Parks Department has purchased and installed a use-

ful and durable piece of art.Designed by Vancouver

Island artist, Jeff King, the life-size sculpture of an Orca whale’s tail is made from powder-coated cast alum-inum, and measures approxi-mately six feet wide by two feet high.

The whale tail is constructed of 100 per cent recycled materials, is weather resistant

and is built to last a lifetime.“The whale’s tail fits with

the marine heritage theme in the splash park, and cre-ates a fun illusion because it appears a whale is diving into the Splash Park and head-ing for the rest of the pod on the splash pad,” said Ross Milnthorp, the City’s general manager of parks, recreation and culture.

The Hospital Auxiliary is looking for ‘muscle men’ and women to join the ranks

of the blue tunics.This little group makes big

money for ongoing hospital projects and equipment, over $8 million since the Auxiliary was created in 1956.

The Hospital Thrift Shop was

built in 1967 on land donated by the hospital,” said President Mary Lazarski. “Five women on the auxiliary put up $2,000 each by mortgaging their homes to get the facility built, and within two years it made enough money to pay them all back.”

With donations up since the announcement of the new hos-pital being built, the (mostly) senior ladies are looking for

some fresh young blood to come in and help out with lifting, sort-ing, carrying, and working some evening shifts when the store is closed.

“The volunteer commitment is at least three hours a week, mor-nings, afternoons or evenings,” said Lazarski. “About one third of our donations are not really for the thrift shop so we have a major recycle program here

with non-working computers, appliances, and of course there is some garbage as well. Please don’t bring broken computers or appliances here.”

“We would like to thank the community for the abundance of donations,” said volunteer Karen Blackmun. “The income from here supports the auxiliary very well and people seem to be much more conscientious, bet-ter quality donations, since the new hospital was announced. But we need more room, we are bursting at the seams, having been in the same space for 46

years.”There is currently a volunteer

pool of about 70 people but the auxiliary needs more members. To volunteer (there are no paid positions) you can apply at the Volunteer Centre or go to the Thrift Shop and leave your con-tact information. Last year they put in 16,000 hours of volunteer time.

The hours for the Thrift Shop are Monday to Thursday, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., Fridays 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. to 9 p.m., and Satur-days 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.

The 47th Annual Campbell River Rotary Father’s Day Breakfast was once again a huge success Sunday at the Community Centre. Over 700 breakfasts of pancakes, sausages, juice and coffee were served up. The local Rotary’s Father’s Day celebration has become so famous that Maureen and Al Lukacz, seen here being served up pancakes by Gary Thulin, travelled all the way from Winnipeg to indulge in the feast and celebration.

FATHER’S DAY TRADITION


OUTDOORS

It’s a Campbell River tradition that combines fitness and a truly party theme. The 24th Annual Campbell River Pub Run took place Friday, June 13 and despite the ominous date it turned into a lucky event for the Campbell River Hospital Foundation. A total of 21 runners (seen above) took part visiting five pubs including, The MVP, Royal Coachman, Royal Canadian Legion, Riptide Marine Pub and Boston Pizza, raising an impressive $5,400 for the Hospital Foundation. That brings the Pub Run’s 24 year total to more than $120,000 to help purchase important medical equipment for the Campbell River Hospital.

City awards contract to local company,Councillor Kerr happy with target area COURIER-ISLANDER

Campbell River city council awarded a $283,964 contract

for sidewalk infills to Tayco Paving Company of Camp-bell River Tuesday night.

Councillor Ron Kerr said he

was pleased that a majority of the work started and will be done in the Campbellton area.

CITY

It took a long time for me to come around but on whole, I prefer monthly obligations. At least for those things I would deem needs. For those on a fixed but modest income monthly billing can make a lot of sense and is my recommenda-

tion to clients where appropriate.

Sure, there are those diligent soles that still run a half d o z e n a c c o u n t s putting aside mon-ies for property, auto insurance and other taxes. If it ain’t broke no point fixing. However, if you are more condi-tioned to consume than save the fol-lowing may make sense.

There was a time when administration fees plus interest created a real disincentive to do so. Most of that has disappeared with the low interest rate environment we find ourselves in and competition has forced “tax collectors” to offer rea-sonable payment options.

Mortgages and car loans are likely best structured to coincide with your income if you are not 100 per cent certain you can handle. While most should do some preliminary planning to look at the impact that this will have on their budget, I’d suggest that bi-weekly payments on a monthly salary may prove to be problematic.

Unless you’ve been living under a rock you know that hydro rates have and will continue to rise in the next

number of years. If you heat your home with baseboards next December through February is going to be an eye-opener. I’m assuming that living off the grid is not a possibility but start-ing an equalized payment plan now through BC Hydro may takes some of the sting away.

I pay for my home insurance and business insurance in monthly payments too. It’s probably not necessary but it’s convenient. I occasionally get asked about my thoughts on whether it can be sourced cheaper from the big smoke. I’ve not seen any evidence and local service providers have been great. Before you shop it you might want to ask their opinion on any areas for economy.

On credit cards, I find it a bit more palat-able to pay the majority immediately with the remaining prior to the due date. Automate the first payment and you will never miss one while on a camping trip. It’s happened to us all. By the way, if you are going to the trouble of paying all your monthly obligations this way are you saving into a pot for your future the same way? Yes, monthly contributions make sense.

Park positionsup for grabsCOURIER-ISLANDER

From checking-in campers to main-taining trails, Park Operators are key to quality service delivery in

B.C.’s provincial parks. And the Province is now looking for

those interested in beginning a new adventure as a Park Operator.

Existing Park Operator contracts will soon be up for renewal. Proposals for these unique positions are now being accepted through 31 Requests for Proposals and 10 Invitations to Quote, which are posted on BC Bid — (www.bcbid.ca.

The opportunities will be open for bidding for approximately six weeks.

Many of British Columbia’s provin-cial campgrounds, day-use areas and back country facilities are operated and maintained by on-the-ground contractors. These Park Operators ensure BC Parks are well equipped to serve the needs of the 20 million people who visit provincial parks each year.

Park Operators typically look after more than one park, and enjoy the unique experiences of working out-side providing the highest quality ser-vice in B.C.’s provincial parks.

Contracts will be awarded to suc-cessful proponents in fall 2014. For more information on B.C.’s provincial parks system, visit: www.BCParks.ca.

Did Campbell River escape an inferno?It was almost unbelievable,

but considering the stupidity of the first act, the second act

shouldn’t surprise anyone.But it should cause us deep

concern.Someone not only dumped

their garbage along a local log-ging road, they then went about setting it on fire, perhaps trying to burn any evidence.

Luckily local fire crews got on

top of it and put it out.This incident happened about

one kilometre south of Willis Road. In other words, right on the doorstep of Campbell River.

The potential for disaster is much more than some people realize. If that fire would have spread and if the breeze was right, it would have been out of control and heading into the city.

Yes, it would have had to cross

the two lanes of the Inland Island Highway to do it, but in the right conditions it would be a piece of cake — burned cake.

So here’s someone who doesn’t think twice about dumping their garbage along any old road and the same one has not a lick of sense to realize the disaster that could have come from that wreckless and selfish act.

There are laws against the

dumping and laws against start-ing those kind of fires, but there hasn’t been a conviction in years even though it continues unabated. A conservation office already stretched to the lim-its isn’t much help. And that leaves society as a whole to get involved, to get educated and to realize that what some think is a small convenience could turn tragic in the blink of an eye.

Previous question:

Do you think it’s okay for Ryan Mennie to maintain his council seat while living in Alberta?

New question:

Should illegal garbage dumpers face an automatic jail sentence?

Councillor shouldresign his position

I agree with the editorial in the Courier-Islander on councillor Ryan Mennie moving to Alberta but saying he’ll stay on council until November. Why?? Leave that position vacant, I’m sure that it’s a real possibility.

The decisions that council make will affect this community, not Alberta. It may be legal, but certainly not ethical. He should resign now and save the taxpay-ers over $10,000 for him to “phone it in” from Alberta. I guess this shows the true character of a person.

Judy CampbellCampbell River

Alberta-based councillornot the way to go

What is our return on investment?

We are expected to invest, over the next five months or so, about $10,000 into a city councillor who no longer lives in the province, let alone our community. So what, exactly, will we be getting for that 10 grand?

Will we be able to talk to him, directly, about an issue? Will we be able to challenge him on his stand on a issue? Will he be able to physically see, for himself, something that is happening in the city that is of concern to those of us, who actually live here? Will he be directly affected by the deci-sions he votes on?

I think you will agree that the answer, on all accounts, is no.

So why this insistence on remaining a member of this council, for the last five months of its sitting? Is it the money? If it is, then there is a serious issue, for that is not a good enough reason for the citizens of this community. It smacks of personal inter-est and greed, which does not serve the best interest of the taxpayer.

I suspect that money may be part of it, but I suspect the real reason is even more basic than that - the continuation of the disfunctional 4-3 vote.

The record shows (both writ-ten and video recorded) that

departing councillor Ryan Mennie followed the lead of both councillors Andy Adams and Claire Moglove, over the past two terms. Rarely did he show any independence from their stands, remaining a part of the four-side, of a one-sided vote. His resignation would change that dynamic, with the chance of a 3-3 vote to happen, more often than not, a vote that could be broken by the Mayor and land in a direction opposite of what Adams and Moglove would want, in their continued drive for personal power and influence.

It is an election year and

there is, in fact, very little that will be accomplished in the next five months that would really make much of a differ-ence, other than leaving a mess or a legacy for the next council. Regardless, the requirement for Mennie to remain on coun-cil is nil, as his participation offers no real return on our tax payer investment.

If you really have the inter-est of this community, at your heart, Mr. Mennie, do the right and honourable thing and resign your seat.

On Saturday, June 21, and Sunday, 22 come and see what Quadra Island-ers have created from fabric, or, in soil. The Quadra Island Garden Tour is unique in that over 70 quilts will be displayed in the majority of the gardens. Quilts range from traditional to modern and include small journal quilts, lap quilts, bed quilts, wall hang-ings and quilted jackets.

This year along with the many colourful flower gardens that reflect individual style and character we are including some of the Quadra farms that harvest a wide variety of produce. Some also have cattle, sheep, goats or fallow deer.

All money raised stays on Quadra Island.

The tour is a fundraiser for both the Quadra Island Recreational Society

and the Quadra Quilters Guild. The Recreation Society will use funds raised for Children’s programming while the Quilters’ portion goes toward the annual Quilters’ Marathon and community quilts. The Marathon quilts are donated to BC Children’s Hospital to be given to seriously ill children.

The tour is concentrated in the south of the island and could be completed by bike.

The Tour runs each day from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Ticket price is $15 and is good for both days.

Tickets are available at Campbell River Tourist Centre, and on Quadra at Inspirations in Quathiaski Cove and Works of H’Art in Heriot Bay. They will also be available on tour days at the Quadra Island Tourist Booth.

Home projects perfect for ‘staycationers’The “staycation” was a concept many fi rst acquainted themselves with when the

economy started to struggle and men and women were forced to tighten their belts. In lieu of trips overseas or family trips to popular tourist destinations, many men and women opted to stay home and save their money.

While the idea of a staycation makes practical sense, many found that idling away a week of hard-earned vacation at home could grow somewhat boring after a few days. But whether a staycation is a week-long escape from the offi ce or a three-day weekend, homeowners can tackle a few projects around the house to turn their time at home into one marked by productivity instead of boredom.

• Add a splash of color. One of the easiest and most effective ways to give a home a new look is to repaint the home’s interior. Such a project can be a small-scale undertaking focusing on one or two rooms in the house or a more ambitious exercise in which more lived-in rooms like a family room and/or kitchen are given an entirely new color scheme. When removing old paint, consider using sanding pads to make the task easier than the days or yore, when paint was often tediously scraped off of walls with a putty knife. Parents on staycation can even involve the whole family in their painting project, allowing youngsters to choose new colors for their rooms and do a little work with the paintbrush as well.

• Say farewell to old faucets. Faucets have a unique way of making bathrooms appear dated. But vanity faucets can quickly and easily be replaced so long as the main problem is appearance and not plumbing. Homeowners who suspect potential plumbing problems with sinks should seek a consultation with a professional before replacing vanity faucets. Once the go-ahead has been granted, homeowners can spend a weekend or a day or two during their staycation replacing vanity faucets around the home. Though the project might seem small, it can yield dramatic and aesthetically appealing results.

• Consider some eco-friendly updates. Homeowners who live in older homes might be able to turn their time away from the offi ce into an exercise in going green around their homes. Eco-friendly updates, which can include replacing old air conditioners with newer, more effi cient models or replacing older toilets with more newer models designed to conserve water, may even earn homeowners tax breaks and will almost certainly lead to lower utility bills. Additional eco-friendly and easy home improvement projects that can be tackled in a day or two include replacing ineffi cient and wasteful water fi xtures and installing a programmable thermostat that makes it easier to control heating and cooling costs and conserve energy.

• Stain the garage fl oor. Many homeowners treat their garages as a workspace, and as a result garages tend to be ignored when making cosmetic changes. Staining the garage fl oor can clear away any oil spots and paint stains that may have accumulated over the years, and a clean and well-maintained garage can increase a home’s resale value.

Staycations have grown increasingly popular over the last half decade, as many homeowners are opting to forgo costly vacations in favor of staying home to pad their nest eggs. While it’s important for staycationers to squeeze in some rest and relaxation, it also can be benefi cial to tackle a few projects around the house during time away from the offi ce.

KEN ZAHARIA COURIER-ISLANDER

Nineteen years ago the goal of the organizing committee of the then first Rod Brind’Amour Cystic Fibrosis Golf Classic, Dinner and Auction was to raise $10,000 for CF research. They achieved that and more topping out at $17,000.

That should have been a har-binger of what this tournament has come to mean to Campbell Riverites, and, of course, Roddy himself.

Fast forward to the 19th Rod Brind’Amour Cystic Fibrosis Golf Classic, Dinner and Auc-tion, which took place Satur-day, and that rookie year $17,000 total has grown to 19-year veteran $90,000 total this time around. And even more impres-sive in its 19 years the event has now raised a phenomenal $1.5 million for CF research. Not bad for ‘little old’ Campbell River.

“I am almost speechless about $1.5 million over 19 years,” said tourney co-chair Grant Stewart. “It just shows that Campbell River is really behind the CF cause and wanting to help Kim (Wood, nee Black) and the other young people and to find a cure for CF. The generosity shown by businesses and participants each year is incredible. The entire Campbell River CF chap-ter is very appreciative.”

It was Kim Wood who literally got the ball off the tee 19 years ago with a letter to Rod asking him if he would be a part of a local CF fundraiser. The rest is local history with Rod, then in

the early part of his storied 20-year NHL career, readily agree-ing to help out Kim and the rest of the other CF victims to find a cure for the horrible disease.

For the third straight year, joining Rod on the 17th tee-box at Storey Creek, and then at the dinner, was amiable Edmonton Oilers star Ryan Nugent-Hop-kins, who has whole-heartily joined Brind’Amour in helping raise money for CF research.

“People love to visit with Rod

and Ryan. They are both totally committed to the cause. Both are class acts,” said Stewart.

Once again there was a full field of 155 golfers at Storey Creek and jam-packed Sports-plex of 350 for the dinner and auction.

“Credit to the golfers, spon-sors, private donations, busi-nesses and people of Campbell River who support the charity and golf tournament year after year,” said Stewart. “Many

thanks to (Storey Creek pro) Kyle Stoudt, (Storey Creek superintendent) Rob Watson and their staff for helping make the golf portion run smoothly.

“Also thanks to the small army of volunteers who work behind the scenes to keep every-thing running smoothly from registration to the end of the auction. An event of this magni-tude could not happen without their tireless efforts.

“We can’t say enough about

the sponsors and businesses who donate funds to the charity as well as items for auction.”

Topping the tourney with a scorching 16 under par 56 was the team of Sean Roy, Steve Brooks, Dustin Raleigh, Mike O’Connor and Pierre Pelletier. The five KP winners on the day included, Chris Welsh (No. 3), Cam Heavenor (No. 5), Len Anglin (No. 7), Cindy Stewart (No. 13) and Tom Sommerville (No. 17).

TERRY GUEST SPECIAL TO THE COURIER-ISLANDER

Round 4 of the Drifting Competi-tion saw season high in car counts in both the Drifting and Drag racing fields Saturday night at Saratoga Speedway.

Three new Drifters added in to the program with a six car field taking to the track. There we also a Smoke Show competition added to the card on Saturday which saw #21 Gord Fraser, former Hor-net car racer, burn the most rub-ber on his ‘69 Chev to take home the Smoke Show win.

Eleven Drag Racers took to the drag strip on Saturday, ranging from ‘69 Fords to ‘06 Chargers. All 11 vehicles went through a double elimination bracket to narrow the field down early. After the double eliminations took place, #420 Matt Armstrong in his 680 horsepowered ‘05 Mustang GT and #385 Bill Lavoie in his 500 horse-powered ‘06 Charger would end up in the finals, with Armstrong’s advantage in horsepower proving to be the deciding factor, taking home the win. #63 James Wilson in his ‘76 F250 would take home third.

After putting all six cars through a double elimination bracket, #26 Alex Davidson and #4 Andrew Otteson would find themselves in the finals for the fourth straight Drifting round. Unfortunately due to mechanical issues, Davidson would have to bow out of the finals due to no

power steering, giving the win to Otteson who after three straight second place finishes would finally take first. Second and third place would then be fought between #14 Kyle Fallowfield and rookie #6 Dustin Taylor. After some tight drifting and a bit of a fender bender between the two,

Fallowfield would be declared the second place winner, with third going to Taylor and fourth to Davidson.

Extra laps...Next weekend marks the first appearance of the Wilroc Sprint cars at Saratoga. These cars are the fastest cars you will see on Vancouver Island,

ranging in times of 13-15 seconds a lap. Last year there were car counts of 12-15 cars, with this year looking to be no different if not better. Accompanying the Sprint cars will the I.M.C.A Modifieds, Bomber cars and the Dwarf cars who are also making their first appearance of the year.

Campbell River Minor Baseball Association (CRMBA) said thank you to the Rotary Club of Campbell River last Wednesday at Nunns Creek Park.

CRMBA wanted to thank the Rotary for their generous donation in the form of a fantastic new LED digital scoreboard at Nunns Creek Park. Like they have done so many times in the past throughout the community, the Rotary Club stepped up to the plate and donated $10,000 to purchase the scoreboard.

Installed by the City of Campbell River Parks Department, it has proved to be a great addition to the ball park as players and spectators can get an up to date feel of what’s happening in the game.

With the addition of the scoreboard the associa-tion will be more competitive in securing tourna-ments, bringing teams from out of town and sup-porting the local economy.

Compassion FatigueCompassion fatigue is a term that is often applied to people who work in the helping professions, such as doctors, nurses, teachers, and social workers, and refers to the gradual decrease of compassion which these people sometimes feel in response to others’ suffering. It may be that after seeing so much suffering we become desensitized to it. Indeed, there is some evidence that everyone may be prone to compassion fatigue through the media’s portrayal of suffering people. Hearing everyday about Syrian refugees or the homeless in America may make us less likely to respond compassionately than if we were hearing about these unfortunate souls less often. People who are experiencing high levels of stress and who have inadequate support networks are more likely to experience compassion fatigue, perhaps because they feel that no one is helping them with their problems and they feel like they have nothing left in their “bucket” to share. Since compassion is one of the essential callings of the faithful, we should do our best to prevent compassion fatigue by managing our own levels of stress and by ensuring that we have a good support network in place. And, we should remember that God is always there to back us up.

— Christopher Simon

The City of Campbell River is seeking approval to extend the municipal boundaries of the City of Campbell River southbound to include a portion of the Electoral Area ‘D’ of the Strathcona Regional District as shown on the attached map.

The Community Charter requires that council must obtain the approval of the electors of the municipality in relation to a proposed boundary extension. Approval of the electors may be obtained by an Alternative Approval Process (AAP).

The AAP process states that the City may proceed with the boundary extension unless at least 10% (2,401) of the estimated number of electors in the City of Campbell River have signed and submitted individual elector response forms against the proposal by the deadline set out below. The number of eligible electors in the City of Campbell River is estimated to be 24,011.

Elector Response Forms

(AAP) elector response forms will be accepted only if they are in the form established by the City of Campbell River or an accurate copy of the form. The forms are available at the Offi ce of the City Clerk at City Hall and on the website at www.campbellriver.ca starting on Friday, May 30th.

For an elector response form to be accepted, it MUST:

• Be submitted by a qualifi ed registered elector of the City of Campbell River;

• Include the full name of the elector;

• Include the residential address of the elector;

• Be signed by the elector;

• If applicable, state the address of the property in relation to which the person is entitled to register as a non-resident property elector; and

• Be submitted to the City Clerk before the deadline.

NOTE: a person must not sign any alternative approval process elector response form more than once and may not withdraw his or her name from the elector response form after the deadline for submission of the elector response forms has passed.

Deadline

The deadline for submitting signed elector response forms opposing the Area ‘D’ boundary extension proposal is no later than 4:00 pm, Monday, July 21, 2014. Elector response forms must be in the possession of the City Clerk by this time, as postmarks WILL NOT be accepted as date of submission. Forms may be mailed or dropped off to the attention of the City Clerk, 301 St. Ann’s Road, Campbell River BC, V9W 4C7, faxed to 250.286.5760, or emailed to [email protected].

Information related to the boundary extension is available on the City’s website at www.campbellriver.ca/ or copies are available for public inspection at the City Hall, 301 St. Ann’s Road, Campbell River, BC during regular offi ce hours of 8:30 am to 4:30 pm, Monday through Friday.

For more information on the Alternate Approval Process, please call: Peter Wipper, City Clerk at 250.286.5707 or Tracy Bate, Deputy City Clerk at 250.286.5705.

The 19th Annual Rod Brind’Amour Cystic Fibrosis Golf Classic, Dinner and Auction ran Saturday at both the Storey Creek Golf Club and the Sportsplex. Great times were once again had by all who participated (155 golfers at Storey, 350 for the dinner and auction at the Sportsplex). The event raised $90,000 which brings the 19 year total to an amazing $1.5 million raised for CF research. Scenes from Saturday’s fun included, clockwise above, from left, Edmonton Oilers star Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, Kim (Black) Wood and Rod Brind’Amour; tournament co-chair Todd Peachey addresses the full house at the Sportsplex; Bill Black (who’s daughter Kim has CF) holding up a halibut bowl carved and donated by Bert Smith for the auction; Roddy with a couple of star struck young fans before the golf; from left, Chris Black, Jo-Ann Wallis, of the CRCF chapter and Mackenzie Norris (who has CF) present the Kinsmen, represented by incoming CR club president Rob Harris, with an award of appreciation for their 50 years of service to the CF cause, raising more than $40 million for CF nation wide.
