Robron Park is getting brighter thanks to the artificial turf field run-ning under budget.

Council heard at its Monday meet-ing that the project is running a sur-plus of $250,000.

“The majority of unknown sub-surface conditions (have) now been encountered and addressed,” said

Jason Hartley, city’s capital works manager. “As a result, the total proj-ect cost is now estimated at $2.36 million, against the approved budget of $2.62 million.”

That left council with a big deci-sion to make – what to do with the extra money.

City staff floated three options – return the extra funds to a savings account, pave the Merecroft Road parking lot next to Robron Park, or

install new pathway lighting around the park.

Council, with the exception of Coun. Larry Samson, opted for the lighting after hearing from city staff.

Hartley said option two, the park-ing lot, could be done at any time as a stand-alone at the same price, whereas the underground wiring and conduits for pathway lighting would be more expensive to do once construction on the turf field wraps

up.“The incremental cost increase to

do this work at a later date would probably be in the range of 20 to 30 per cent given the disruption that would occur and the remediation required to replace the new side-walks and curbings,” said Hartley who noted that it will cost the city $225,000 to do the pathway lighting now while the ground is still dug up.

But Coun. Larry Samson said he’d

prefer the money be used elsewhere.“I’ve never heard of a need for this

lighted pathway, I mean I haven’t heard any citizens come forward,” Samson said. “I believe the field is also under this lighting, would this not give some ambient lighting to this pathway?”

Campbell River city coun-cillor and acting mayor at this year’s Haig-Brown Festival Mar-lene Wright says it’s important to recognize those in our com-munity who do their part to care for the natural environment that makes this such a great place to live.

At last weekend’s Haig-Brown Festival, held each year on the grounds of the Haig-Brown Heritage House beside the Campbell River, the 14th annual Campbell River Stew-ardship Award winners were announced, continuing the tradition of recognizing those who give back in conservation, preservation and environmental stewardship.

“Today we have had the pre-sentation of the Stewardship Awards here, and I think it’s so appropriate that the celebration is held here on the Haig-Brown

property, where two of our champions –  Roderick Haig-Brown and Ann Elmore – Made Campbell River their home,” Wright said. “They’ve left us with such a rich legacy of justice and active commu-nity involvement.”

Wright said she was happy to be the acting mayor of the event, because she feels it’s important to recognize those in our community who make a difference in environmen-tal sustainability and con-servation.

“They are the ones who make our community healthier and more beau-tiful from an environmental perspective, and I thank them so much.”

One of those winners was retired Department of Fisheries and Oceans community advi-sor Barry Peters, who won this years’ Environmental Excel-lence Award for his work within

the community.Peters has been involved in

numerous volunteer environ-mental projects since his retire-ment.

Most recently, he spurred the work to get a new footbridge over Nunn’s Creek to replace an older, unsafe span.

“I am very honoured,” Peters says. “People keep talking about my career, but I got paid to do all that,” he joked.

“I just hope that people still

see the value of volunteerism,” he said. “I think there are many excellent volunteers within this community. It’s one of the things, I think, that Campbell

River is known for. When things have to be done, you can always just ask around and people show up.”

While Peters is just wrapping up his career, another award winner is just getting hers started.

Timberline grad Court-ney Wilson received the Tom Easton Remem-brance Bursary, which she will use towards her studies at Douglas Col-

lege in New Westminster. She is currently undertaking a bach-elor of environmental sciences degree after working this sum-mer at the Discovery Passage Aquarium.

A full list of awards recipi-ents should be available soon at campbellriver.ca.

help light up the park but only when the field is open. He said pathway lighting would also likely deter vandalism.

Still, Samson said the majority of people will typically only be in the park at night if the field is open and said he’d prefer the money be spent on the parking lot upgrades or the Big Rock Boat Ramp improvement project.

Mayor Andy Adams disagreed and said the lighting, which would line the pathway between the Merecroft and Birch street parking lots will increase security.

“Even with this addi-

tion, the project will come in under budget and the pathway light-ing system was always originally contemplated in the Robron Park Master Plan,” Adams said. “If we’re looking for extended field users at the turf field, and these could be younger children, getting into November when it’s getting dark early, to have a safer route to get to the Birch Street and Merecroft parking lots is a safety issue worth addressing now, rather than later.”

Coun. Ron Kerr con-curred.

“I agree it makes sense to do it and it is under budget,” Kerr said. “I

think it allows the park to be safer and used on a longer basis.”

The lights are just part of council’s larger plan to upgrade all of Robron Park. Arguably the larg-

est component of the project is the $2.27 mil-lion artificial turf field which is in the midst of construction and is expected to be complete by mid-November.

Park: Pathway to be lit

Kristen DouglasCAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

The city is giving prop-erty tax exemptions to 75 community groups next year but a couple of city councillors were con-cerned Monday about who was left out of the tax breaks.

While several organi-zations, including local churches, are given the tax exemptions each year, seven new applica-tions were considered for 2016.

All together, at its Monday night meeting, council approved 75 permissive tax exemp-tions totalling $755,901 of which $406,263 is provided by the city and $349,638 is provided by the other local taxing authorities such as the school district, hospital district and regional dis-trict.

Each of the organiza-tions receiving the tax breaks was vetted by the city’s Community Partnership Commit-tee which is tasked with

determining whether or not the non-profits meet the city’s criteria for an exemption on paying property taxes.

Of the seven new appli-cants this year, one – the Campbell River Masonic Temple Association – was turned down.

C ou n . R on Ke r r wanted to know why.

“Have they received an exemption in the past?” Kerr asked. “Especially considering the work they do for the pub-lic with the cancer car which is a really valuable service to the commu-nity.”

Lesia Davis, chair of the Community Partner-ship Committee, said the Masonic Temple Associ-ation applied about five years ago and the same argument was made back then that the temple is not open to everyone and therefore doesn’t meet the city’s criteria.

“We did discuss the car, we don’t know if it’s a direct service of the Masonic Hall or some-one else,” Davis said. “We

felt with the information we had, the member-ship was restricted to the Masonic members. For instance, if you go into the John Howard Society you could have a meet-ing there if you weren’t a member, whereas at the Masonic Hall, you couldn’t have a meet-ing there if you’re not a member.

“It was a struggle. We went around the table a couple of times because of it,” Davis added. “At the end of the day, we felt in fairness to the criteria, to make the recommen-dation we have.”

But C oun. Char-lie Cornfield said the Masonic Hall should still be included.

“Four organizations use the hall, including Job’s Daughters (as well as the Campbell River Shrine Club, Chas Maria Order of the Eastern Star and the Freemasons), which people choose to participate in by choice as they do the John How-ard Society, as they do with various organiza-

tions that are on the list for property tax exemp-tions,” said Cornfield, who then proceeded to make a motion to add the Masonic Temple Association to the list of organizations receiving the tax break.

His motion, however, was defeated by council.

Coun. Larry Samson said he trusts Davis and the rest of the Commu-nity Partnership Com-mittee members came up with the right recom-mendations.

“I believe this commit-tee does an excellent job, they’ve gone over all the facts and they believe at this time it doesn’t fit the criteria and council’s policy,” Samson said.

Mayor Andy Adams wanted to focus on the positive.

“Seventy-five groups, totalling $755,901 of which $406,000 is com-ing from the city,” Adams said. “This is a signifi-cant investment in orga-nizations that provide services to our commu-nity.”

Books everywhere!Annual Rotary Book Sale closes the cover on another year

MIKE DAVIESCAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

Bookworms and casual read-ers alike flocked to the Campbell River Community Centre on the weekend to either fill their bags –  and the occasional shopping cart – to the brim or just pick up a piece or two to add to their per-sonal libraries.

This year’s annual Rotary Club of Campbell River’s Book sale was the biggest ever, according to book sale coordinator Keith Price.

“This is more tables than we’ve ever had. This is more books than we’ve ever had. I mean, if you look under the tables of books, there are more boxes of books,” Price said, looking around the gym in

awe. “Nobody’s even going to see those ones unless they crouch down and sort through them, and they’re probably not going to do that.”

He was right. It was certainly a sight to see.

There were approximately 75,000 books at this year’s event, Price said, based on weight and an average number of books in a pound. “In any case, it’s 35,000 pounds of books,” Price laughed.

Now that the event has wrapped, the books will now be “culled,” and those that still have some resale value will be put into storage for another year.

Books with exceptionally broken spines or torn covers, for example, will be recycled, generating money

for the club instead of costing them money to store them.

They receive seven cents per pound for the books they are get-ting rid of.

“We want to get it down to a number that could be called ‘man-ageable.’” Price laughed.

Price says previous years’ book sales have brought in between $7,000 and $9,000 to help the club give back to the community throughout the year. Price said they had already passed the $7,000 mark by the end of the first day of this year’s sale.

In ancient times the stranger had an almost sacred status for various reasons that continue to be probed by historians and anthropologists.

Someone stumbling into a village or settlement, obviously from afar and not speaking the local lan-guage might be anyone — even a divine or threaten-ing presence — but was regardless provided with food and shelter.

Our ancestors also had another good reason to give the stranger aid; they knew that a moment’s notice they could be next, forced into exile and in need of the help they were once willing to give.

The debate around how to help Syrian refugees, fleeing a vicious civil war and expanding Islamic State terrorism, has become something of a politi-

cal football in Canada. It’s to be expected that various parties during the election would make various claims on the best approach.

But this is a matter, to recall to our ancient for-

bears, is beyond politics. The publication of the photo that went around the world — that of three-year-old Syrian refugee Alan Kurdi, is ample evidence of that.

Canada, not its politicians, needs to respond in a way that allows us to alleviate as much suffering as possible arising from this tragedy in Syria.

Canadians are compassionate people and there is ample precedent for helping those in need. We need only recall when in the 1980s thousands of Vietnam-ese ‘boat people’ were taken in by this country.

Compassion has to supercede politics in this mat-ter but other questions arise of Canadians wanting to respond.

While dramatic and serious events like the Syrian crisis are few and far between, there is no lack of other events seeking our charitible response.

It’s important to analyze how useful and effective such charitable “trends” are, often spurred on by heart-wrenching photos, and where they go after the outrage dies down and the public moves on to the next hot issue.

We can look beyond the migrant crisis in Europe to any number of countries that would benefit from the aid and compassion of Canadians. And it is right and good that we continue to do what we can.

And for every trendy hashtag and its accompanying global outrage, there are local issues which, perhaps at times lacking the same hype and glamour, still need our attention.

The status of refugees, and Canada’s responsibility in assisting them is deservedly in the spotlight. And local organizations that are doing their part deserve our accolades, especially as most of them were doing the hard work to support refugees for years before it became a trendy issue.

But when the hype dies down, the trick is to remem-ber our long-term commitments to both global and local issues, whether they’re glamorous or not.

We are limited in what we can do, but the key is to act with compassion and empathy when we can, and leave the politics to the politicians.

Syrian crisis response calls for compassion

Our View

We say: Issues like the refugee crisis shouldn’t be left to politicians

Protest stunts distract from real efforts“I am tired of managing pov-

erty.”The words of Lake Babine

Nation Chief Wilf Adam were quoted by both Aboriginal Relations Minister John Rus-tad and Premier Christy Clark at their second annual meeting with aboriginal leaders around the province.

In her closing remarks, Clark repeated her aim to continue economic development and resource revenue sharing that have dominated the govern-ment’s approach in recent years.

“Let’s eliminate poverty in First Nations communities,” she said, adding “the only way we can fight poverty is to grow the economy.”

Not surprisingly, Clark’s cho-sen example was the potential of liquefied natural gas devel-opment for the Haisla Nation near Kitimat.

That and similar proposals require new gas pipelines. And as is customary in B.C., what people most often hear about are threats and wild claims regarding protests such as the Unist’ot’en camp near Smithers, set up to block a gas pipeline.

There was a round of this in

late August, after Grand Chief Stewart Phillip of the militant Union of B.C. Indian Chiefs claimed hundreds of RCMP officers were about to descend on the camp. This echoed previous false claims made by se l f - s ty led anarchists such as Victoria’s Zoe Blunt, who has been organizing outside support for the camp for the last couple of years.

Media jumped at the prospect of another Gus-tafson Lake-style confrontation. This prompted an unusual statement from Cpl. Janelle Shoihet of the North District RCMP.

“To clarify, the B.C. RCMP has no intention of ‘taking down the camp’ set up by the Unist’ot’en,” she said, empha-sizing that police are not tak-ing sides or acting as security for pipeline exploration crews being harassed by protesters, who have token support from a couple of dissident members of a Wet’suwet’en clan.

Four elected chiefs of the Wet’suwet’en issued their own statement, to correct media coverage that represents the Unist’ot’en as speaking for their

communities.“Our Nations

support respon-sible resource development as a way to bring First Nations out of poverty and bring opportunities for our young peo-ple,” said Burns Lake Band Chief Dan George.

We t’suwe t’e n First Nation Chief Karen Ogen said

job and benefit agreements for the Coastal GasLink pipeline were entered into after careful consideration, and she objected to protests from outsiders, some from outside the country.

“Sustainability means stand-ing on our own two feet, pro-viding our young people with good paying jobs, and reduc-ing the 40 to 60 per cent unem-ployment we now experience,” Ogen said.

Haisla Nation Chief Coun-cillor Ellis Ross has no time

for crude oil projects, but he has been working towards gas-related development as long as anyone. Ross spoke out in sup-port of the elected Wet’suwet’en chiefs in their efforts to resolve the dispute with Unist’ot’en members.

“Opposition is the easiest job in the world,” he said. “What is difficult is finding an answer when a First Nations mother has concerns about her child’s future. Politicians are quick to shout out sound bites and get into camera shots, but where are the cameras when another First Nations member takes their own life or when they pass away from highway/alco-hol related deaths?”

Ross noted that recent court decisions have put B.C. aborigi-nal leaders in the best position they have ever had, with gov-ernments and development project proponents coming to them “with inclusion in mind” after decades of resource devel-opment that has passed them by.

More aboriginal leaders are getting tired of managing pov-erty, and misguided protesters.

Re: Deal with private contractor could reduce surgery wait times – J.R. Rardon.

The above noted arti-cle was in the Aug. 26, Campbell River Mirror. Reading the headline I have to ask “but at what cost?”

It is extremely con-cerning that our pro-vincial government is contracting up to 55,000 surgeries to a private, for profit, surgery clinic which is yet to be built. If this company is locat-ing in Victoria they must have received assurance for long term commit-ments to enable them to locate there permanently. Surgical Centres Ltd. is “based” in Calgary, they have two private, for profit, surgery clinics in Calgary, two in B.C., two in Saskatchewan. Are the owners American?

Dr. Brendon Carr (president and CEO of Island Health) when asked at the Island Health Board meeting here in June stated that there will be a premium in cost for the surger-ies at the private clinic. We know private, for profit, health care is more expensive. He said they have the informa-tion and would provide it, but when I wrote and asked what the differ-ence in cost for the tax-payers between surgeries in public or private, for profit, operating rooms, Mr. Peters declined to answer the question.

Our provincial gov-ernment is seeking to change the BC Health Act to permit patient stays of up to three nights in private, for profit, surgery clinics so their plan into the future is to embrace private, for profit, surgery clinics.

In the provincial gov-ernment’s own report it states the reason why our public hospital operating rooms sit idle quite often is due to lack of fund-ing. The government and Island Health think it is okay to contract out these surgeries because

the surgeries are still being publicly funded but our taxpayer dollars will be spending more for the profit margin.

I pointed out to Dr. Carr that we have a shortage of doctors in Canada and he agreed. He said it would be the same doctors doing the surgeries in the private, for profit, surgery clin-ics. I asked how they can usurp our doctors into the private system with-out straining our public system more. He just said they will be watch-ing it. That doesn’t bode well for our public oper-ating rooms.

I fear that our provin-cial government is seri-ously undermining our position in defending the Dr. Brian Day court case on behalf of all Brit-ish Columbians. At the very least it looks like a huge conflict of interest when they are seeking to contract an enormous number of surgeries to private clinics.

Our provincial and federal governments seem determined to starve the public health care system in favour of private, for profit, health care.

They have let the sur-gery wait lists increase substantially.

Our federal govern-ment refused to renego-tiate the Canada Health Accord and brought in a new funding formula. They are telling us they are “increasing” fund-ing of the transfer pay-ments to the provinces by three per cent, tied to the cost of living. Cur-rently they are paying six per cent annually so this actually is a massive cut to the provinces for public health care in the amount of $36 billion over the next 10 years.

With the federal gov-ernment’s cuts to health care funding, the share of federal CHT cash payments in provincial-territorial health spend-ing will decrease sub-stantially from 20.4 per cent in 2010-11 to less

than 12 per cent over the next 25 years. This, according to the Parlia-mentary Budget Office, will bring the level of federal cash support for health care to historical lows. National Medicare was implemented across Canada by provinces and territories on the under-standing that the federal government would con-tribute roughly 50 per-cent of the spending on Medicare.

Canadians are vehe-mently opposed to pri-vate health care whether it is using our public tax dollars or not. Canadians should not have to suffer and wait a long time for surgery. Funds would be far better invested in the public health care system which is being starved

by our governments. It is very difficult for Canadi-ans to see our medicare in serious jeopardy.

The Canadian Medical Assoc., Canadian Doc-tors for Medicare, Cana-dian Health Coalition, Council of Canadians, B.C. Health Coalition, HEU, CUPE, Citizens for Quality Health Care and many others are united to protect, strengthen and expand our public health care.

Please check out their websites and get more information. Please vote in the next two elec-tions and vote for health care for the benefit of all Canadians.

In an effort to make housing a matter of con-science and action, the United Nations has des-ignated the first Monday in October of every year as World Habitat Day.

On Monday, Oct. 5, Habitat for Humanity Vancouver Island North will embrace World Hab-itat Day at the ReStore on 1725 Willow Street, Campbell River, British Columbia.

“Habitat for Humanity

Vancouver Island North is a proud supporter of World Habitat Day,” said Karen Bezaire, Commu-nications and Marketing for Habitat for Human-ity Vancouver Island North. “Our hope is that this global initiative will help raise awareness sur-rounding the affordable housing crisis here in the Campbell River and the reality that many fami-lies are forced to choose between decent shelter

and other basic needs.”To celebrate World

Habitat Day and sup-port the cause, Habitat for Humanity Vancou-ver Island North will be holding an open house at 1725 Willow Street, The Habitat for Humanity ReStore. Staff and volun-teers will be available to answer questions regard-ing upcoming build proj-ects and other fundrais-ing initiatives. Join them and enjoy some coffee,

cake and conversation on Oct. 5 from 11 a.m. ‘till 2 p.m.

Habitat for Human-ity is an independent, non-profit, faith-based housing program dedi-cated to the elimination of poverty by building homes in partnership with hardworking fami-lies in need. The purpose of the organization is to provide simple, decent, affordable housing to those who would not qualify for, or be able to afford, a conventional mortgage.

The Habitat program is about home owner-ship and is designed to break the poverty cycle, through creating stability within the family struc-ture.

Ha b i t a t Va n c o u -ver Island North was founded in May 2004. Since that time 16 homes for Vancouver Island North families have been built. The newest location in Campbell River is on Dalton Road and ground breaking will occur spring 2016. The Selection Commit-tee is currently accepting applications and holding an information session Oct. 6 at the Community Hall in Campbell River. Habitat for Humanity - Building Homes. Build-ing Hope.

Open fires are once again allowed through-out the Coastal Fire Centre’s jurisdiction, due to a decreased risk of wildfires.

Burn barrels, fireworks and tiki torches will also be permitted.

People who intend to conduct an open burn must first check with

their local government to ensure that there are no additional local bylaws or restriction in place that might regulate open burning.

n Campfires must be no larger than a half-metre wide by a half-metre high. People who light campfires are reminded to have a hand tool, such as a shovel, or at least eight litres of water nearby to fully extinguish the campfire.n Category 2 fires are

fires that burn material in piles smaller than two metres high and three metres wide, or stubble or grass over an area smaller than 2,000 square metres.n Anyone lighting

a Category 3 fire must first obtain a burn regis-

tration number by call-ing 1-888-797-1717. A Category 3 fire is a fire that burns material piled more than two metres high or three metres wide, or stubble or grass over more than 2,000 square metres, or more than two piles of any size.n An infographic

showing the differences between campfires, Cate-gory 2 fires and Category 3 fires is available online at: http://bit.ly/1GlhE9ln A person who lights

a fire must have suffi-cient personnel, water and tools on hand to stop the fire from escap-

ing and must comply with air quality control legislation.n Never leave a fire

unattended.The rescinding of the

open burning prohibi-tion applies to all BC Parks, Crown lands and private lands, but does not apply within the boundaries of a local government that has forest fire prevention bylaws and is serviced by a fire department.

The Coastal Fire Cen-tre covers all of the area west of the height of land on the Coast Mountain Range north of the U.S.-

Canada border at Man-ning Park, including Tweedsmuir South Pro-vincial Park in the north, the Sunshine Coast, the Lower Mainland, Van-couver Island, the Gulf Islands and Haida Gwaii.

To report a wildfire, unattended campfire or open burning violation, call 1 800 663-5555 toll-free or *5555 on a cell-phone.

Greenways Land Trust is hoping Spirit Square will be hopping this weekend.

The organization is hosting its third annual Frogger 15K which aims to raise funds for Green-ways and raise awareness for the completion of the 25-kilometre Green-ways Loop, a cycling and pedestrian path circum-navigating the city.

The run is staged at Spirit Square with com-munity booths, music and awards.

The race begins at 9 a.m. this Saturday at Spirit Square, and takes participants through the Beaver Lodge Lands before winding its way back to the finish line at Spirit Square.

Campbell River’s Lau-rel Sliskovic began train-ing for the Frogger 15K in the spring.

New to running, Slis-kovic decided to tackle the event in large part due to her passion for the natural environment.

“I love the trails, for-ests, green spaces and natural spaces in and around Campbell River,” she says. “Greenways Land Trust’s mission is to restore, sustain and protect natural areas and critical habitats, particu-larly ecological and rec-reational greenways, for the benefit of our com-munity. The more I can support Greenways, the

more my community benefits.”

Though she admits being both excited and nervous about running the Frogger this week-end, Sliskovic says having that goal helped her keep on with her training.

“The challenge of run-ning the 15 kilometre on Sept. 19 – setting a spe-cific, measurable, attain-able, realistic and timely (SMART) goal has kept me focused, for the most part, and I’m going to do it,” she says.

The Frogger also pro-vides an opportunity for Sliskovic to participate in the health and pros-

perity of the community. The event is increasing awareness and sharing the messages of Green-ways Land Trust – an organization made up of volunteers working to preserve and enhance the natural environment.

The Frogger begins at 9 a.m. Saturday, with day-of registration taking place between 8 and 8:30 a.m. The tadpole trot for kids run, put on by the River Runners, starts at 11 a.m. and is free of charge. The Frogger can be run as an individual (15 km) or as a relay team (three runners each tackling five km).

The borders of Campbellton are fl exibleBy John Twigg. SecretaryCampbellton Neighbourhood Association

So just what are the borders of Campbellton, which is arguably the oldest neighbourhood in all of Campbell River?

As far as we know there are no official boundaries of Campbellton but we do know there was an official street layout registered more than 100 years ago, a copy of which can be seen in the showroom of North Island Communications, and we do know that to this day there is still a loose and varying consensus of where that name Campbellton actually applies.

Should it include the Discovery Plaza shopping centre? Probably not because it sits on land owned by the Campbell River Indian Band but in practice that shopping mall IS part of Campbellton's "trading area".

Should it thus also include Ironwood Road, which also is in Campbellton's reach of commerce? Maybe, but lately CNA officials have decided its unofficial southern boundary should be Nunns Creek, which makes sense topographically and it means the many businesses on and around Homewood Road are inside Campbellton too.

Petersen Road certainly is in Campbellton, being a major cross street for about 100 years, but how far up the hill should "Campbellton" go? The CNA was successful in lobbying the City for traffic light and pedestrian improvements at 14th Avenue and Petersen (a busy intersection of mixed traffic) and now the City is doing much-needed improvements for pedestrians and cyclists up the narrow twisty Petersen hill - so that arguably could be part of unofficial Campbellton too.

And maybe that should include Treelane Road, which overlooks Campbellton and also connects directly to "downtown" Campbellton via Spruce Street, also like Petersen a major cross street through the old neighbourhood.

Similarly, should Campbellton also cover at least

part of what is semi-officially known as North Campbell River, i.e. everything east and north of the great namesake river? That would make sense because several businesses there are obviously in Campbellton's trading area, such as the iconic Ideal Cafe, several car dealerships and numerous businesses related to forestry, fishing, marine and air industries, among others such as residential and tourism properties.

As well, 40 artistic banners developed by the CNA were erected recently on the roads and bridges across the river, with financial assistance from the City and the Pacific Salmon Foundation, which somewhat further attests that the CNA does cross the river too. (CNA members also are participating in various efforts to improve nature, park and recreation areas there, such as broom-bashing in Baikie Island Nature Reserve.)

Recently the CNA staked another small claim to its northward reach when it handled the bar service for the successful first-ever Snowden Trail Challenge in which some 120 runners and mountain-bikers did timed races over 25 and 50-kilometre trails in the Snowden Demonstration Forest from a base in a vacant field of PRT Growing Services Ltd.,

operator of numerous very large greenhouses, all of which are just outside the City limits.

And how about reaching all the way to Quinsam Crossing, the residential/commercial/services development westward up on the highway that is owned by the We Wai Kai (Cape Mudge) First Nation? That band also owns the reopening Quinsam Hotel, the soon-to-be 100-years-old landmark of downtown Campbellton that coincidentally abuts a very large parcel of vacant land owned by the Wei Wai Kum (Campbell River) Band.

But all that said, there is no debate about where Campbellton's northwest border is and that is up the river all the way to the dam and B.C. Hydro power plant and on out to the City's border with Strathcona Regional District's Area D, near the present-day dump.

The historicity of that part of Campbellton was displayed again on the past weekend with the Haig-Brown Festival at Haig-Brown House on the scenic shores of the Campbell River only a short walk from the neighbourhood's commercial core,

with the family clearly identifying as having been part of "Campbellton".

The CNA not only managed the barbecue for that event, it also received an environmental stewardship award there from the City for its development of the new community garden near Petersen Road and 15th Avenue.

Presently the CNA is focussed on issues in and around the neighbourhood's downtown core, such as improving pedestrian safety and restoring public access to the riverfront, but perhaps in coming years the CNA's official reach will extend beyond its traditional borders.

CNA chair Brian Shaw welcomes feedback at 250-287-8807 or [email protected] .

Quartetto Gelato visits QuadraThe Quadra Cultural Commit-

tee is proud to present Quartetto Gelato, a group of four Cana-dian musicians who play what is referred to as a combination of classical masterworks, tangos and gypsy music, and they are set to play the Quadra Community Centre on Saturday, Sept. 26 at 7:30 p.m.  

The quartet features Peter DeSoto, a tenor who plays the violin and was a member of the Toronto Symphony for 11 years. He also excels at the man-dolin.

“It hardly seems fair that he (DeSoto) is also a violin wiz who tossed off a gypsy number at diz-zying speed,” accruing to the National Post.

Also on stage will be Alex Sev-astian, who began his professional career in Moscow in 1996, per-

forming with the Russian Radio Orchestra, with whom he toured as a soloist throughout Russia, Ukraine, Germany, Italy, and Japan. Sevastian plays accordion, piano, bandoneon and has won four international awards for his accordion playing. 

Colin Maier achieved a lifelong dream by joining Quartetto Gelato in 2009. In 2002, he was a featured Jazz oboist at the International Double Reed Festival where he performed and conducted a jazz master class with legendary jazz bassoonist Michael Rabinowitz. In addition to oboe, Maier also plays clarinet, English horn, violin, five-string banjo, acoustic/elec-tric bass, piano, saxophone, flute, guitar, mandolin and musical saw, and says he has yet to master the kitchen sink.

Cellist Greg Gallagher will make

up the fourth member of the quar-tet, replacing Liza McLellan on this tour. Gallagher made his pro-fessional debut as a soloist with the New Brunswick Symphony in 2005. Gallagher has his bachelor of music degree from the Univer-sity of Western Ontario and is cur-rently working as a teacher for the Sistema Toronto music program as well as freelancing as a profes-sional cellist in Toronto.

Quartetto Gelato’s perfor-mances are said to have a warm and endearing vitality. Don’t miss what is bound to be an excellent evening of musical entertainment!

Tickets can be purchased on Quadra Island at Works of H’Art in Heriot Bay, Inspirations in Quathiaski Cove and in Campbell River at the Music Plant. Advance tickets are $17 in advance or $20 at the door.

Catch Quartetto Gelato at the Quadra Community Centre on Saturday, Sept. 26 at 7:30 p.m.

The Campbell River Art Gallery and the Tidemark Theatre are teaming up to provide two fun first-time events to celebrate Culture Days next Saturday, Sept. 26.

Culture Days is a nation-wide cel-ebration that raises awareness, and encourages accessibility and partici-pation by Canadians in the arts and cultural life their communities. This year, once again, thousands of artists, cultural workers, organizations and volunteers are mobilizing to host free participatory public events in hundreds of cities and towns across the country on the last weekend of September.

Campbell River Art Gallery and the Tidemark Theatre invite  you to cel-ebrate Culture Days on Saturday Sep-tember 26th with two special events.

First up is Zine Making, from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. 

A  Zine is a self-published  work of texts and images commonly reproduced via photocopier – a magazine with a twist informed by a DIY ethos. Topics frequently covered are broad, includ-

ing fan fiction, politics, poetry, art and design, social theory, riot grrrl femi-nism or other content outside of the mainstream. 

At this special Culture Days event, each participant will create a page for the gallery’s zine publication titled “XX EX”, inspired by the current exhibi-tion. This is an all-ages event – no art skills are required.

Then, from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m., stop by for an Art Mixer. This will be a cele-bration of culture at the Gallery with free form art-making, refreshments, music and more. Take over the Gallery while enjoying complimentary tastings from Courtenay’s Wayward Distillation House and Quadra Islands Southend Farm and Vineyards. There will be painting, collaging and drawing while sipping and tasting.

Again, no art experience is necessary and everyone is welcome. Admission is free or by donation.

For more information, call 250-287-2261, see www.crartgallery.ca or visit the gallery’s Facebook page.

Greg Brown is one of the fore-most living folk artists of his gen-eration and his album The Iowa Waltz is widely acknowledged as an early masterpiece and one of the most critically acclaimed titles in his rich discography. Inspired by youthful wanderings on Iowa back roads, the album is a raw, unsentimental yet affectionate journey through the American heartland filled with vivid scenes and memorable characters.

And he’s playing the Tidemark Theatre Oct. 9.

Brown’s youth was spread across a map of the Midwest as they moved between churches (and even denominations), but music was always a staple. Gospel and hymns, classical, hillbilly, early rock and roll, country, and blues coalesced into a simmering stew of sound. Brown studied classi-cal voice and piano as a child and also sang with choirs and in state competitions. At six he took up the pump organ and at twelve he learned the basics of guitar from his mother (who was also an Eng-lish teacher – so books and poetry were always around the house).

At 18, Brown won a contest to play an opening set for singer Eric Andersen in Iowa City, who then encouraged him to head east. Moving to New York, he landed a job at Gerdes Folk City in the Village running hootenan-nies. Next he tried Portland, Los Angeles and Las Vegas, but after a few years he moved back to Iowa. He recorded a couple of albums on his own (44 & 66 and The Iowa Waltz), then began working on the renowned national radio show A Prairie Home Companion

and touring nationally. After he teamed up with Bob Feldman in 1983, they re-released Brown’s first two albums under the name Red House Records — the beginning of the now legendary folk/roots label that has released nearly all of Brown’s 27 albums.

With a career now spanning four decades, Brown continues to write, record and perform. His seasoned songwriting, storytell-

ing, and music are deeply rooted in the land and culture of south-eastern Iowa. He moves audiences with warmth, humour, a thunder-ing voice and his unpretentious musical vision.

Tickets for the Tidemark show are $32 plus applicable taxes and fees and can be purchased from the box office on Tuesday or Fri-day from 12 to 4 p.m. or online at tidemarktheatre.com

The Campbell River Community Band is start-ing its fall season tomor-row (Sept. 16). Rehearsals are held weekly in the Carihi Band Room, start-ing at 7:30 p.m.

The 30-member band was founded 19 years ago by its first director, Céline Ouellette. Under various directors it has continued a tradition of concerts and competitions, includ-ing the National Music Festival where the band won a gold medal in 2005.

Under the baton of Kolya Kowalchuk, who took over the band’s direction last season, the band will be preparing for a late November concert.

New members of any age with some band experience are always welcome, and should con-tact Céline Ouellette at 923-6844 or at [email protected] in advance so she can prepare a folder. There is no audition, and committed players with a wide range of ability and experience enjoy playing in the band.

Band members pay a modest fee to cover rental of the band room and purchase of new music.

It is with gratitude for her life and sorrow at her passing, that the family of Carol Ann Cuzzocrea, announce her passing away peacefully on September 6, 2015 with family and friend by her side. Carol was born in Kelowna, BC on December 10, 1946, the second of five children to Dave and Lil Hewer. Her childhood was spent between Kelowna and Prince Rupert where she had many fond memories of picnics and holiday celebrations and Sunday dinners. After university Carol married Charlie Cuzzocrea and moved to Campbell River in 1969 where she raised their two children. Carol was an amazing mother, nanny and friend. An avid bridge player, she will be missed for her thoughtfulness, keen wit, sense of style, strength. It is from her parents that she learned that love and kindness are all that matters. Carol was the most thoughtful person who would spend hours meticulously picking out a perfect gift for a friend or preparing a home cooked meal for her guests. She spent more time thinking of others than herself. If you went to her house you were sure of a something delicious to eat, her undivided attention and lots of laughs. Twenty five years ago, Carol became a realtor and formed a legendary business partnership with her friend Toni Smith. Century 21 or REMAX, it didn’t matter. Carol and Toni’s friendship eclipsed all else. How they managed to remain business partners and friends for so long was no mystery, it was based on love – love for their job and love for each other. With her passing, the secret of who really burned down the family garage will forever remain a mystery.Carol was predeceased by her parents Dave and Lillian Hewer. She is survived by her son Craig and daughter Stacy (Greg), grandchildren Seth and Rocco, brothers Gary (Sue), David (Janet), Joey (Karla), sister Meldy (Ken) and numerous nieces and nephews. 4 no trump.A Prayer Service will be held on Friday, September 18th, 2015 at 7 pm in the Sutton’s Campbell River Funeral Home Chapel.

Did YouKnow?

Although we certainly provide ceremonies that respect and honour one’s faith, we often hear the expression, “Dad wasn’t religious,” indicating that a traditional service was not suitable for him. That does not mean however

his lifestyle. The funeral home is not just for “funerals” anymore! Our Funeral and Reception Centre provides the perfect location where family and friends can gather to pay tribute, hear special music, perhaps watch a video collage of his life and share memories over refreshments. Take advantage of our professional expertise to create a meaningful and memorable celebration of Dad’s life – a tribute that will last a lifetime and provide closure to family and friends.

Lloyd, Edgar Raymond

Lloyd – Edgar Raymond passed away Tuesday, September 8 2015, with family by his side. Born March 19, 1927 in Vancouver BC, Ed lived a full, rich life never straying from the BC coast for long. He was predeceased by his loving wife, Ruth, in 1992. Ed is survived by his three children; Judy, Willy and Sharon (Jeff ); his favourite granddaughter Darah (Dylan), as well as extended family and dear friends. Dad enjoyed several careers over his working life – Constable with the BC

Police/RCMP, Manager of various departments at the University of Victoria, Park Ranger with BC Parks at Miracle Beach (aka “Smokey the Bear”), and fi nally as Jailer with the Campbell River RCMP detachment. Dad loved to share stories and jokes, was well known for his wit, and his spectacular talent for wiggling his ears! He spent many hours fi shing with his buddies, making beer & wine, and expanding his “collections”. Always a great defender of the RCMP, Dad treasured his connection with the Vancouver Island RCMP Veterans’ Association and looked forward to his weekly coff ee dates with his fellow veterans. He was, in a word, a gentleman – kind, honourable, and generous. We will miss him greatly.No service by request. Donations may be made to a charity of choice, if so desired.“And that’s my fi nal word on the subject”!

The BC Assessment authourity is going to take pictures of your house.

D i g i t a l c a m e r a s mounted inside a clearly-

marked van will soon be on the residential streets of central Vancouver Island as BC Assessment continues to use inno-vation to update photos

used for property assess-ment purposes.

This technology has already been successfully used in several commu-nities and regions across

British Columbia. The residential photo update initiative will take street front digital photos of approximately 70,000 single family homes

with a target start date of mid-September for the following areas:n Campbell River:

10,580 homesn North Cowichan:

10,363 homesn Courtenay: 7,618

homesn Lake Cowichan:

1,448 homesn Comox: 4,449 homesn Duncan: 1 ,139

homesn Comox Valley Rural

Areas: 11,171 homesn Duncan Rural Areas:

3,383 homesn Alberni Rural Areas:

4,982 homesn Powell River: 5,001

homes“As the Crown cor-

poration responsible for accurately valuing all properties in B.C.

and continually serv-ing as a leading source of the province’s prop-erty information, we are always looking for inno-vative ways to provide more timely, accurate, equitable and fair assess-ments to all property owners,” said Bill Daw-son, Deputy-Assessor for the Vancouver Island region.

BC Assessment will photograph only the public street front of a home including the civic (street) address number.

BC Assessment will not retain any personal information related to:n Any images of peo-

ple on the property.n Visible signage on

a residence (excluding street address), including

business signs, signs with the names of the people living at that property and any other type of signage that may relate to the identity of a person. This includes vehicle license plates.n The interior of a

residence (e.g., images that show the inside of a home through a window or open doorway, or the interior of an enclosed vehicle shelter such as a garage).

This time of year, bears throughout the province are out and about searching and competing for available food sources while gear-ing up for the winter months.

It’s everyone’s respon-sibility to ensure bears don’t have to be destroyed for public safety.

What can YOU do in urban areas?n Use bear-proof

waste containers or keep garbage secured in the house, garage or shed until pickup day and return the containers to the secure site once they are emptied.n Pick ripe and fallen

fruit daily and remove any unused fruit trees.n Use bird feeders

only in winter. Keep the ground free of seeds and

nuts.n Clean the barbecue

grill after each use, and store it in a secure area.n Bring pet food

dishes inside and store the pet food inside.n Do not add meat

products or uncooked food to compost. Turn it regularly and keep it covered.n Use electric fencing

to protect attractants such as backyard chick-ens, beehives, compost bins and fruit trees.n If residents spot a

bear, they are advised to remain calm, keep away from the bear and bring children and pets indoors, if possible.n People should never

approach a bear and should not run from it, as bears can move very quickly.n Once a bear has

left the area, residents should check their yards to ensure there are no attractants available.n Work with your

neighbours and municipal govern-ment to create a Bear Smart Community.The most effective way to reduce human-

wildlife interactions is to secure food attrac-tants, such as garbage. Communities where attractants are managed properly, such as Bear Smart”communities, have seen significant declines in bear conflict calls, and the number of bears destroyed.

Kamloops, Squamish, Whistler, Lions Bay, Port Alberni, Naramata and New Denver are designated Bear Smart. What can YOU do when hiking in bear country?n Make sure some-

one knows your plans. Before your trip, leave names, trip plans and date of return with friends or family.n Carry bear spray,

keep it accessible and know how to use it.n Go with friends.

Bears are less likely to approach people in groups. Check each other’s position often and remember that the larger the group, the less likely a bear will hang around.n Keep young chil-

dren close to you. Chil-dren can be particularly at risk because they are

small and make erratic movements.n f you hike with a

dog, keep it on a leash. An unleashed dog can lead an irritated bear back to you and your friends.n Make noise. Carry a

noise maker, talk loudly, sing or let out occa-sional warning shouts. This will alert bears to your approach so you are less likely to cause a surprise encounter. Remember that other sounds, such as flow-ing rivers and streams and strong winds, can drown out the noise you make. Be extra noisy at these times.n Avoid areas with

typical bear food sources. These include berry patches, grain fields, garbage pits, beehives and anywhere

you can see an animal carcass.n Watch for fresh bear

signs. If the signs look like they were made recently, quickly and calmly leave the area.n Avoid being out at

dusk, night or dawn. Although bear encoun-ters can happen at any time of day, bears are most active at dusk, night and dawn.

Quick Facts:n Under the Wildlife

Act, it is illegal to feed or attract dangerous wildlife, such as bears.n Penalties can be as

high as $100,000 in fines and one year in prison.

Bears are doing everything they can to fatten up for winter so communities are urged to dis-courage them from entering town.

The Campbell River Storm are four for four to start the season. On the weekend, before the hometown faithful, they dispatched the Oceans-ide Generals 4-1, then the Saanich Braves 5-1.

General Manager and Head Coach Lee Stone was pleased with the team’s effort on Saturday against Saanich, “This was our best sixty minute performance of the sea-son. We needed to make some improvements and we certainly did.”

The Braves came into the game tied for first in the South Division. Stone was complimen-tary, “Saanich is a very good team, they work

hard, they compete; they have a veteran group”.

Loose pucks and uncontrolled rebounds played a big factor in the outcome.

Early in the first period, newly arrived Storm goalie Olivier Charest gave up a rebound off a hot shot from Evan Hor-vath and Jordan Parmar punched in the rebound. Campbell River found themselves trailing in a game for the first time this season.

The Saanich lead was short-lived when captain Gage Colpron fired a rebound past netminder Riley Mathieson.

Colin Blake took a big hit at centre ice but was

able to feed the puck to speedster Braeden Cyra who split the defence. His shot went of f Mathieson and straight to Colpron who slid the puck along the ice and into the open side.

Before the end of the frame, Alex Rosolowsky redirected a point blast from Trevor Bottomley to make it 2-1. At that point the Storm never looked back.

Six minutes into the second period Josh Coblenz pounced on a puck lying on the goal line after Blake set up Colpron at the side of the net. Cyra and Kobe Oishi closed out the scoring in the third.

Blake played his best game of the season col-lecting 3 assists and drawing several penal-ties. His effectiveness on the fore check and patience with the puck earned him first star honours.

It was the debut for Charest, who was acquired f rom the Comox Valley Glaciers Kings last week. The 20 year old goalie from Brossard, Quebec, was part of the deal that saw defenceman Thor Ros-back start the season with the Yetis.

The Storm improved on their league leading penalty kill, stopping all four Saanich power

plays. Heading into week

three they have allowed just 1 goal in 29 attempts and have scored twice a man short.

On Friday against Oceanside, the Storm skated to a 4-1 win on a two goal performance from Colpron while Oishi and Christian Brandt added singles. Colpron (13 points) and Cyra (11 points) are the leading scorers in the VIJHL.

Next action for the Storm is Wednesday on the road against the win-less Westshore Wolves. On Friday, the Nanaimo Buccaneers return to Rod Brind’Amour Arena.

Storm resume winning waysMIKE DAVIES/CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

Danger in play at Sequoia SpringsMike Davies, Campbell River Mirror

While Sequoia Springs isn’t the most treacherous course in the region – that honour definitely goes to Storey Creek – it’s not a walk-in-the-park, either.Well, it is a walk in the park, insomuch as you’re walking in what feels like parkland while you’re playing, but that’s not what I’m talking about.I’m talking about how a missed fairway on this course can do as much damage as a missed fair-way on any other, despite the fact that it looks like there’s room to spray the ball around a bit. The opening hole, for example, is a par-5 that double-doglegs – first left, then right – and forces you to not only hit the fairway off the tee if you’re going to score well, but forces you to play to the left side of it if you want to have a go at the green in two. A miss on either side of what looks at first glance like a straight-forward hole will basically take you out of contention for par or better. The undeniably evil fourth hole, another par-5 (and another double-dog-leg) requires a well-placed – but not necessarily long – tee shot to the left side of the fairway. This is a dangerous proposition, as the fairway goes left, slopes to the leaf, and anything missing left likely results in a lost ball. Anything right of the left side of the fairway forces you into a very difficult layup to the bottom of the valley, where there is a hazard on the left side (the side you’re hitting toward) that sucks balls into it like a vacuum. If you manage to find your ball in there, you’ve got a difficult up-and-down for par on what is easily the hardest green on the course on which to sink a putt. The par-4 fifth can be kind of jerk these days, too. I’m not sure when they put in the massive bunker just right of the green that has two giant boulders in it, but it’s a heck of a hazard. Do not go there. Once you make the turn, things open up a bit more, but you have to miss by a lot for it to matter. The tree-lined fairways on the back nine look like you’ll have a shot if you go there, but you won’t. You have to miss so far left or right to be on the next fairway over if you want to have a chance at scoring well after a miss to either side. Oh, and speaking of being dialled in off the tee box…make sure you’re holding the correct club when you step on the tee at the par-3 11th. It’s essen-tially a peninsula. Anything left, right, or long of the green is doomed. Doomed. Anyway, I shouldn’t have to tell you to keep you ball on the fairway, but I think it’s valuable advice when it looks like missing it isn’t a huge deal.Trust me. It is.

Until next time,See you out on the course – hopefully on the fairway.

Our columnist Mike Davies splashes his bunker shot over one of the boulders and out of the greenside bunker on Sequoia

Springs’ par-4 fifth hole. He doesn’t recommend putingyourself in a position where you have to hit that shot, but it’s

a fun challenge. – Photo by Joseph LagosNOW OPEN

The first running of the Snowden Trail Challenge on Sunday, Sept. 6 was a resounding success. 

Race director Arlene Halwa said, “I knew there was a demand for an ultra distance trail running event in Camp-bell River. Coupled with the mountain bike events, we had a great response from the com-munity.”

Entrants came from all over Vancouver Island and as far away as Ques-nel to participate. 

Racers could choose from a 50K or 25k trail run or mountain bike, a 50K team category or a 14K trail run. 

All events took place on the Snowden Forest trails with the start and the finish at the PRT (Pacific Regeneration Technologies). 

The winners were:n 50K trail run Dar-

ren Smith (Nanaimo)  4:31:33; n 50K bike Justin Mark

(Nanaimo) 2:31:25; n 25K run Mike

Br i d ge s ( Me r v i l l e ) 2:05:08;

n 25K bike Chris Win-kelaar (Comox) 1:31:51; n 14K run Erin Jen-

sen, only 13 years old (Nanaimo) 1:23:58. 

Halwa was delighted with the turn out and

said that “We could not have done this without the support from the PRT, the Campbellton Neighbourhood Asso-ciation, Boston Pizza and the River City Cycle

Club who maintain all the trails in the Snowden forest.” 

For more information on Snowden Forest trails go to www.rivercitycycle.ca/downloads

Snowden challenge attracts competitors from all over Vancouver Island and B.C.

Mercedes Hayduk kicks off the bike leg of the Snowden Trail Challenge.

Back in the late 70’s and 80’ s, there was a Mens Soccer Club known as the Campbell River Wave.

This team entered the Vancouver Island Soccer League as an up and coming Div. 4 team. The club was comprised of local players from Campbell River and the North Island. and they experienced immediate success, winning division champion-ships and promoting themselves all the way up to the top division, being the 1st division.

The great play of our local team was a source of pride for our soccer community and a great way to share the soccer experience. The Campbell River Masters soccer club consists of a number of former Wave players who commonly share stories of the days gone by. The late 80’s saw the local side fade out of site with no longer any Senior Men’s soccer available for our up and coming youth of today. That is until now.

Introducing the new Cermaq City Wave Soc-cer team. The journey has been the same, win-ning league championships, culminating in their newest promotion to Div. 2. The local men hope to provide an attacking brand of soccer that is a delight to watch and make the club one that the people of Campbell River can be very proud of.

For soccer enthusiasts, the next home game takes place Saturday, Oct.26 at 2 p.m. at the Wil-low Point Sportsplex.

Local businesses have been buy-ing up bikes

from Canadian Tire like they’re going out of style.

Why wouldn’t they? They’re being given a deal on a kid’s bike and helmet combination for half-price so they can donate the package to local schools for a raffle in support of the 2015 Tour de Rock.

This year’s local Tour de Rock rider, Const. John Belanger, says it’s just another example of the community coming together to support the cause.

“There’s a bike in every elementary school and in the two middle schools,” says Belanger, making 14 in total, pur-chased and donated by 11 local businesses.

“For me it’s just about being included in it,” says Melinda Gaberel, principal of Cedar Elementary. She says the tour stopped at her school every year when she was in Port Hardy, and it was always a wonderful opportunity to show the kids what it means to give back.

“The excitement and the sense of pride and energy that is brought into a building when the riders ride in and the kids are all cheering – it’s amazing.”

Last year, the school strike/lockout situation caused additional stress during school opening around the time the tour was happening, so they missed out on the opportunity to engage with it, Belanger says.

“So it was kind of one of my goals when I became the rider this year – to get some bikes into the schools so that they all know about it.”

He also says that his plan is to encourage a yearly rotation between elementary schools to make sure they all get to see and experience

the tour when it comes through town.

“Schools that don’t get a visit from the Tour de Rock this year will be on the list for next year. We’ve done that typi-cally with the middle schools, but we haven’t with the elementary schools,” he says, adding he feels it’s important for all the kids in the district to see the Tour de Rock first hand, know what it stands for and to learn about social responsibility and the value of giving.

The bikes are being raffled off at only $2 per ticket, and sales will be cut off at noon on Sept. 22, at which point Belanger and his team will be going around to the various schools to draw for the bikes.

Every child at Cedar Elementary already has a ticket for theirs, thanks to Rivercity Therapeutic Centre, who not only bought the bike and helmet for Cedar’s raffle, but has also purchased a ticket for every child at the school.

There is also another ongoing raffle hap-pening throughout the month – and until the tour finishes in Vic-toria – for two tickets anywhere WestJet flies. Tickets for that raffle can be purchased at the Campbell River RCMP detachment or at Tyee Chevrolet Buick GMC for $5 each or three for $10.

Another upcoming fundraiser for the tour include a bike rodeo planned for the after-noon of Sunday, Sept. 20, at the Campbell River Christian School parking lot.

“There’s going to be lots of fun things hap-pening at that,” Belanger says. “There’s going to be face painting, a Bounce-A-Rama, all kinds of entertainment and fun.”

Belanger says he’s currently sitting “right around the $40,000

mark,” in terms of fun-draising, but he’s only raised about $3,000 spe-cifically for his mous-tache.

Yes. His iconic handle-bar moustache has its own fund. Belanger has committed to shav-ing his face completely – and saying goodbye to his long-time friend – if $5,000 is raised specifi-cally for him to do so.

If you want to donate specifically towards the removal of Belanger’s iconic facial hair, you need to donate through his fundraising website (which we will link to on this story at camp-bellrivermirror.com)
