Timetable troubles fuel tension at LSSNick BekolayTHE CHRONICLE

Principal Dave Street asks students and parents upset over unexpected changes to their timetables to place their faith in Ladysmith Secondary School’s adminis-trative staff and counsellors.

LSS counsellors are working 12 hours a day as they revise students’ timetables and match students to available courses, Street said, and he assured parents and students alike that “we’ve got a handle on things.”

Street credited LSS’s two counsellors with working “upwards of 12-plus hours a day to accommodate students’ needs” in

spite of being met with “more abuse than they ever have” before.

Having to contend with people exhibit-ing “very little tact” when communicating their timetable concerns with the school’s counselling staff means the counsellors

“deserve a huge pat on the back for what they’ve been doing.”

Traditionally, LSS has always distribut-ed the following year’s completed course schedules to students in June, Street ex-plained, providing students and parents with an opportunity to work with coun-sellors on revised schedules through ear-ly July and the last week of August.

This year, however, LSS chose to distrib-

LSS principal asks parents and students for their patience

Ladysmith Secondary School students Grace Twedt, Alexa Spanevello, Kassandra Webber and Kennedy Hayes say they’re upset over course schedules that failed to meet their expectations, a position they say they share with hundreds of their fellow LSS students. The school delayed the distribution of student timetables until the rst day of classes this year, said LSS principal Dave Street, leading to a ood of last-minute requests from students seek-ing revisions to their course schedules. Responding to complaints regarding long waits for scheduling changes, Street said LSS staff members were do-ing everything they possibly could to address the concerns of parents and students.

Nick BekolayTHE CHRONICLE

As the first full week of classes un-folded at Ladysmith Secondary School, a hefty portion of the school’s students was left biding its time as counsellors scrambled to fill in the gaps in stu-dents’ timetables.

Course schedules handed out on day one of the new school year failed to meet the needs or expectations of close to half of the school’s students, and the school hasn’t addressed stu-dents’ concerns quickly enough, say LSS students.

Grade 11 student Alexa Spanevello

said the writing and English literature courses she thought she’d signed up for failed to materialize, a consider-able inconvenience in light of her fu-ture aspirations. “I want to be an English teacher when

I’m older,” she explained. Instead of devoting her time to study-

ing Orwell or Shakespeare, Spanevello said she’s found herself in a “place-holder class” that, as of Friday after-noon, had yet to be filled.

When she filled out her course survey last spring, Spanevello said she “defi-nitely thought” that by jotting down her course selections, LSS would

Air Cadets mark 70 years

Lindsay ChungTHE CHRONICLE

This Sunday (Sept. 22), up to 400 air cadets are expect-ed in Ladysmith to celebrate seven decades of cadets in Ladysmith.

Royal Canadian Air Cadet Squadron 257 Ladysmith re-ceived its Charter from the Air Cadet League of Canada in February 1943.

To commemorate 70 years of air cadets in Ladysmith, the squadron is hosting a Vancou-ver Island Wing Squadron and Band Parade, followed by a Military Inspection at the Ag-gie fields and an open house at Aggie Hall, home to the Ladysmith Air Cadets.

Cadets from all the Vancou-ver Island and Powell River squadrons will form up at First Avenue and Roberts Street Sunday at 1 p.m. for a gi-ant street parade to Aggie Hall. As they march along First Av-enue, cadets will salute the re-viewing officer, Rear Admiral William Truelove, commander of Maritime Forces Pacific, in front of the Royal Canadian Legion.

Following the parade, the ca-dets will form into squadrons on the Aggie fields for a Mili-tary Inspection. There will be guest speakers and band, first aid and drill demonstrations. Aggie Hall will be open to all to come and tour the upper hall, as well as the lower cadet hall, and there will be displays, cake and refreshments.

Event co-ordinator Cathy Gilroy expects the event to go until 3:30-4 p.m.

Gilroy says they wanted to bring all the Vancouver Is-land squadrons together after being inspired by old photo-graphs.“When we were deciding

what to do, we had photo-graphs from the early 1950s and inspections on Aggie Field with 50-60 cadets, and

we decided we wanted to rec-reate the photos,” she said.

The 70th anniversary of the air cadet squadron’s creation also gave them a chance to showcase the history of the cadets’ meeting place, Aggie Hall, which was built in 1922 and was managed by the Ag-ricultural Society, explained Gilroy.

When Squadron 257 Ladysmith received its Char-ter in February 1943, air ca-dets was a high school pro-gram. H.A. Thicke, a high school shop teacher and the driving force behind the pro-gram in Ladysmith, was the squadron’s first commanding officer, explained Gilroy.

Because the high school did not have a gym, the cadets used the Agricultural Hall as their headquarters for training and drills, she noted.

The first air cadet to receive his “wings” was Raymond Conti in 1949.

The air cadet program con-tinued to be popular after the war, and girls started to join in the early 1950s – although they were not officially al-lowed to enrol until 1975, ex-plained Gilroy.

The program grew and diver-sified, and today, cadets en-gage in a wide variety of activ-ities such as power flight and glider training, sports, surviv-al camping exercises, marks-manship, St. John Ambulance first aid training, drill and ef-fective speaking. Citizenship trips and weekend exercises are offered throughout the year, and most cadets attend summer training programs in B.C. and nationally, noted Gilory, adding that cadets are very active in the community, assisting many service groups and organizations.

Gilroy says they have a very small group of cadets this year, as many graduated in June, but they’ve been very excited about taking part in the 70th

anniversary celebrations.“They’re going to be front and centre leading the pa-rade with our squadron flags,” said Gilroy. “They are playing a hugely important role.”

One of the Ladysmith squad-ron’s senior cadets will lead the entire parade.

Gilroy believes the peak of the squadron was probably 1944.“It was a high school pro-gram, and boys took air ca-dets,” she explained. “The purpose was to train them as pilots for World War II.”

Gilroy’s son graduated from the air cadet program three years ago, but she has re-mained involved in the orga-nization because she values it so much.“I just have a really good feeling with this program,” she said, noting there are a number of parents who have stayed involved once their children graduate. “We’re grateful for it.”

Gilroy feels her son gained a lot from participating in air cadets, including self-confi-dence; real, marketable skills and leadership skills.

Through cadets and through the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award program, Gilroy’s son also learned a lot about com-munity service.“He came to understand the importance of his role in the community and the role youth can have,” she said.

“They help the food bank and the Legion ... they do so much of that, and it teaches them how important commu-nity is.”Anyone who is interested in

joining the Ladysmith air ca-dets is invited to stop by Ag-gie Hall any Tuesday evening between 6 p.m. and 9 p.m., or contact the squadron’s com-manding officer, Capt. Karen Graczyk, by phone at 250-713-8096 or by e-mail at [email protected].

Fundraiser gala set for scholar-athlete

Fifteen-year-old Darian Harris has been ac-cepted to Victoria’s prestigious Pacific Coast Hockey Academy and his family is bound and determined to help him foot the bill.

Tim and Stephanie Harris, Darian’s father and aunt, have arranged a fundraising gala and golf tournament to help cover the cost of the acad-emy’s $17,000 registration fee.

The golf tournament is set for Saturday, Sept. 21 at the Mount Brenton Golf Course. Registra-tion opens at 11:30 a.m. and the tournament’s first foursome is scheduled to tee off at 1:30 p.m.

The tournament will be followed by a dinner and silent auction. Dinner will be served at 5:30 p.m. followed by the 7 p.m. auction.

Stephanie said her nephew, a former member of the Bantam AAA Cowichan Valley Capitals, is the only First Nations hockey player expected to attend the academy.

Stephanie desribed Darian as a scholar-athlete and a role model for his Stz’uminus First Nation peers. “Darian is a great hockey player and a student

with A average grades,” Stephanie said. “He’s never smoked, drank or done drugs. I feel Dar-ian is a great role model for First Nation youth, [a reminder that] if you work hard and set goals you can achieve them.”

Tickets for the golf tournament and dinner cost $85 each or $320 for a group of four while dinner without a side of golf costs $40 per per-son.

For more information, please contact Stepha-nie Harris at 250-327-9674 or Tim Harris at 250-667-0880.

ute those same schedules on the first day of school instead, leading to the current bottle-neck.

Street said the delay resulted from “complica-tions with building timetables” and he insisted that it was in no way related to the 60-day pub-lic consultation process introduced by School District 68 through May and June of this year.

Regarding the trial timetables filled out by stu-dents in June, Street explained that they were distributed solely to gauge student demand for courses, and anyone mistaking that survey as a form of course registration is at fault for hav-ing done so. (The document itself is clearly la-belled as a “Program Survey” on its cover page and it cautions readers that courses often “suf-fer elimination from the timetable due to low student enrolment.”)“We were very clear through the entire pro-

cess that it was a student survey,” Street ex-plained. “We’re [using it] to build a timetable for students, but not all interest areas can be accommodated through traditional instruc-tional methods.”

By “traditional methods,” Street is referring to the one-teacher, one-classroom, one-subject model of instruction, a service the school can-not provide when a given subject is requested by groups of no more than 10 students, Street said.

To meet the needs of as many students as pos-sible, LSS aims to facilitate access to courses with limited demand through distance learning programs, independent directed studies and personalized learning, Street said.

In other instances, individual teachers will offer instruction on multiple science and math courses — Physics 11, Physics 12, Cal-culus and Pre-Calculus, specifically — within a single classroom, rotating the topic of in-struction on a daily basis; students of the re-maining subjects, meanwhile, study indepen-dently online. “In doing that, we’re able to offer very-small-

enrolling upper-level courses,” Street said. “And for those that are wondering, yes, the students do extremely well.”

To further boost potential course offerings, LSS has filed a request with SD68 for addition-al blocks of classes and discussions are cur-rently underway as to how many additional blocks SD68 will provide.

Complicating that process, however, is the fact that LSS exceeded its expected enroll-ment for the fall by 30 students, translating to an automatic shortfall of eight blocks of class-es. Projected enrollment for the year was set at 555 students, but by Friday, Sept. 13, 585 students were enrolled.As the school works towards resolving its

timetabling woes, its head administrator asks parents and students to be patient. “If they know Ladysmith Secondary, they

know that we will do everything to try to ac-commodate their requests and their interests,” Street said. “We have people here whose dedi-cation to students and family and this commu-nity is unprecedented.”

To conclude, Street asked parents or stu-dents with scheduling-related questions or concerns to contact the school.

deliver the classes she said she needs.

Several friends have found themselves in similar situations, Spanevello said.“I’ve had a lot of friends that

can’t get into the classes that they need,” she added. “For example, my friend needs English 11 before she can take English 12 and they couldn’t put her in an English 11 class this year. She has to do it on-line because she’s graduating this year, and you need both English 11 and English 12 to graduate.”

The friend Spanevello was refer-ring to is Grace Twedt, a Grade 12 student frustrated by a lack of access to the classes she needs and workarounds she sees as less than ideal.“I was put into an English 12

class so I went back asking to be put into an English 11 class first semester, and they told me all the classes were full,” Twedt said.

“That really upset me because I thought that the students gradu-ating this year would be made a priority.”

She will have to step “outside her comfort zone” in order to earn the credits she needs to graduate, she said.

Twedt described herself as a student who functions best in a classroom setting where she can readily access teacher assistance. Online courses, meanwhile, re-

quire a level of self-motivation she finds “really hard,” she said. “It kind of sucks that I have to take it online now,” Twedt said,

“but that’s the only choice I had.”Adding to students’ frustrations

is the fact that face-to-face meet-ings with counsellors are far hard-er to come by than they have been in past years, Twedt and Spanev-ello said, a result of the 300-odd students requiring timetable revi-sions as of the start of the year.

The school’s new operating pro-cedure has taken the form of a paper exchange, they said. Stu-dents submit written requests for revisions then wait to be called to the office to receive their new timetable. Then, if the revision process fails to address an issue, the process begins anew.

Not all LSS students view a re-vised timetable as an inconve-nience, though.

Grade 11 student Nick Mrus said he’s been placed in a study block he had no intention of signing up for.

Upset at first, Mrus said he now uses that time to study for his other courses, meaning “it’s not as much of an inconvenience” as he thought it might be.

Several parents of LSS students were polled regarding the status of their children’s timetables out-side LSS Friday afternoon, but none shared the students’ con-cerns regarding scheduling.

Online courses ‘only choice’ for some LSS students


One night, a small little voice was heard from the bedroom across the hall: “Daddy, I’m scared!”

The response came quick: “Honey, don’t be afraid, Daddy’s right across the hall.”

After a very brief pause, the little voice is heard again, “I’m still scared!”

Again, a response: “You don’t need to be afraid. God is watching over you.”

This time, the pause is longer ... but the voice re-turns, “Daddy, I want some-one with skin on!”[1]

That story from James Hewitt’s Illustrations Un-limited reminds us that as human beings, we were created for relationships — or to say it another way, we have been “hard-wired” for relationships.

One interesting aspect of life in Canada in 2013 for many people is that a sig-nificant amount of relation-al time is not face to face, not touching “someone with skin on,” but rather through the digital avenues available to us such as

Facebook, LinkedIn, Twit-ter, texting and e-mail.

I’m not an anti-technology Luddite by any stretch of the imagination. I have a Facebook page, text every-day, send e-mails and have been considering a Twitter account. At the same time as I have embraced these technological avenues for relationships, I wrestle with that voice in the back of my mind that puts up a cautionary flag.

What are the inherent downsides to these digital services which allow us to connect with so many peo-ple around the globe for minimal costs? What could possibly be bad about such opportunities?

After pondering this and reading an excellent book by Shane Hipps entitled Flickering Pixels: How Technology Shapes Your

Faith, I believe the answer to that question is the dan-ger of replacement. The danger comes when we believe that replacing our face-to-face, handshake-to-handshake, hug-to-hug relationships with a Face-book message or a text is an equal trade. The words and pictures we send digi-tally are great, and I will personally continue to uti-lize them, but I’m also com-ing to the conviction that I shouldn’t rely on them.

This past summer, I had the chance to meet up with an old college friend, Tom. Tom and I have kept in touch with some Face-book messages and e-mails over the years, but when he and his 10-year-old son came to Ladysmith, it was completely different. I gave Tom a good bear hug and lots of “It’s so great to see

you buddy!” statements. Not surprisingly, the Bi-

ble, the word of God which has proven to be timeless in its wisdom and its truth claims for thousands of years, is still relevant to us who inhabit the digital age. In the Apostle Paul’s let-ter to the newly-founded church in the Greek city of Thessalonika, Paul makes this timeless statement about human relationships at their best: “We loved you so much that we were de-lighted to share with you not only gospel of God but our lives as well, because you had become so dear to us.”

So my challenge to you is to make time for the family, friends and neighbours that mean the most to you. Do not replace the face-to-face interactions with digital ones. Do not replace a hug with a text. Do not replace a cup of coffee with an e-mail update.

Technology is good and keep on using it, but re-member, we all need “someone with skin on.”

While cycling to Maple Bay with Dave Steen and Tom Sharpe (see ‘Triple gold,’ page 12) last week, our conver-sation turned eventually to the return of passenger rail service to Vancouver

Island communities.Sharpe, an avid cycling tourist, mentioned that he would

prefer to see the rail line transformed into a cycling corri-dor along the lines of Greater Victoria’s Galloping Goose and Lochside trails, an opinion shared by Ladysmith resi-dent Michael Smith in an Aug. 27 letter to the editor.

In today’s issue, a letter from Chronicle reader Robert Johnson questions whether or not sufficient demand ex-ists to justify spending millions of dollars in public funds to restore rail service to southern Vancouver Island.

I became a huge fan of passenger rail service while liv-ing in South Korea (ROK). Summer weekends routinely involved me cramming my climbing and camping gear into a backpack in anticipation of hopping on a Saturday morning train to Gurye, the closest stop to Yongseo Pok-po, my favourite Korean crag.

Trains were often full to capacity, meaning demand for rail service is alive and well in the densely populated ROK.

The population density of the ROK is 20 times our own, though, meaning we may not have the people power to populate these trains.

On top of that, cycling infrastructure is cheap: Portland spent as much on its entire cycling infrastructure as it would spend on an average mile of freeway.

I think it’s time we all weighed in via a referendum. —Nick Bekolay

Loss of trolley lamented, LDCU lauded for sprucing up downtown

Editor:

I would like to congratulate Ladysmith and District Cred-it Union on the fantastic mu-ral they had painted on the lower parking lot wall! It looks great!

Now all we need is for a couple of businesses down-town to spruce up their building fronts. Downtown Ladysmith needs some life. It is starting to look dull and drab.

On another note, it will be sad to see the Trolley gone.

I have seen tourists taking pictures of it and overheard a couple of young men in a local coffee shop point at it going by and saying ‘cool, they have a trolley in this town!’

I imagine there are photos of it in different parts of the world by now, and people re-ferring to Ladysmith as the town with the Trolley.

There were people in town concerned about the cost of running it. Buses don’t make money anywhere.

Ron DashwoodLadysmith

Vancouver Island rail service labelled ‘pipe dream,’ ‘bottomless money pit’

Editor:

Build it and they will come.

Or will they?There has been much talk

about reestablishing the rail service on Vancouver

Island. It has been said that such a service will help relieve commuter traffic problems by taking cars off the road. It has been said that it will promote tour-ism, and it has been said that it will be more envi-ronmentally friendly.

Will it?Let’s look at the facts. Have you ever taken the

train? If so, how many times? If it was ever reinstated,

would you use it? And if so, how often?It is most likely that you

have never taken it, and that you are not going to.

This train service is a ro-mantic pipe dream, some-

thing we think is a good idea but something we won’t use.

So, before you get on the bandwagon calling for the reestablishment of this un-stable pipe dream that will cost taxpayers millions and millions of dollars in grants and subsidies — it was a bottomless money pit in the past and will continue to be so in the foresee-able future — ask yourself: “If they build it, who will come?”

And who will be stuck paying for it if “they” don’t come?

Robert JohnsonLadysmith

Why close pools during vacation?

Editor:

I want to complain that I had to drive a van full of kids all the way to Nanaimo pool to swim because the Duncan and Ladysmith pools were both closed at the same time for maintenance and clean-ing.

Why do they close while summer is still on and the kids are not back in school yet? And [why close] more than one local pool at the same time?

Help celebrate fall harvestNIck BekolayTHE CHRONICLE

With the West Coast fall harvest in full swing, local community service groups and business associations are joining forces to cel-ebrate.

The Ladysmith Family and Friends Resource Program (LaFF) has part-nered with the Ladysmith Down-town Business Asso-ciation to host a fund-raising dance inspired by the community dances of days gone by.

LaFF and the LDBA will co-host their inaugural “Harvest Moon” dance at Aggie Hall the night of Sat-

urday, Sept. 21. The night’s festivities fea-ture music from Sun-west DJ service and the event is restricted to adults aged 19 and over.According to the

LDBA’s website, “All money raised will go back into LDBA com-munity events and to LaFF programs.”

The fundraiser is one of several community-orient-ed, harvest-themed events planned for that week, said Jacqueline Neligan, LaFF’s executive di-rector.

LaFF plans to host a pair of “har-vest parties” at the Ladysmith Commu-nity Gardens Friday, Sept. 20. A kids-oriented har-

vest party is sched-uled from 9:30 a.m. to noon at LaFF’s garden plot, Neligan said, and students from local elemen-tary schools have been invited to par-ticipate.

Children will help harvest a crop of beans, beets, carrots and kale before dic-ing up a portion of

the harvest to build and race their own veggie-mobiles, Neli-gan said. A second family-

oriented harvest party is scheduled to take place that evening from 5:30 – 8 p.m., Neligan said. The Friday-night event is open to the public and features music, lights, danc-ing and a host of homestyle crisps and pies for con-sumption.“If anyone has ap-ples or pears or ber-ries to donate, they can drop them off at Aggie Hall weekday mornings,” Neligan said.

LaFF’s harvest parties are free events hosted at the Ladysmith Commu-nity Gardens, locat-ed at Second Avenue and High Street.

Tickets for the Har-vest Moon dance, meanwhile, can be purchased in ad-vance from Salaman-der Books, 49th Par-allel Printers and the Ladysmith Chronicle for $15 apiece or at the door the night of the dance for $18 each.

Doors open at 7 p.m.

Fire ghters wantedThe CVRD’s six volunteer fire

departments will co-host an open house Saturday, Sept. 28, at the Sahtlam Fire Department.

The event will feature a discus-sion on the strategies used by CVRD volunteer fire departments to combat their recruitment and retention woes.

Representatives from the Mesa-chie Lake, North Oyster, Sahtlam,

Honeymoon Bay, Youbou and Malahat fire departments will be in attendance.

The event runs from 5:30–7:30 p.m. at the Sahtlam fire hall, locat-ed at 4384 Cowichan Lake Road in Duncan.

Anyone planning to attend is asked to contact Jason de Jong, fire chief of the North Oyster Fire De-partment, at [email protected].

Gord and Kayla Henry emerge from the fog as they approach the corner of Stillin Drive and Dunsmuir Crescent Sunday morning dur-ing the Terry Fox Run. Over 100 participants and volunteers turned out for this year’s run, said Ladysmith Parks and Recreation coor-dinator Anita McLeod, navigating their way along a fog-shrouded 2.5-kilometre course as they helped “keep Fox’s dream alive for another year.” Ladysmith’s run raised $1,923 through donations, pledges and T-shirt sales, McLeod said.

A&EChronicle

Lindsay ChungTHE CHRONICLE

What a way to kick off the 10th season at Ladysmith Little Theatre.

The first production of the 2013-14 season, Norm Foster’s Opening Night, is a hilarious show about theatre, relationships and people, filled with lines that will make you laugh out loud.Opening Night, which opened Sept. 12, is the

story of the opening night of a Broadway pro-duction gone horribly wrong. As the play un-ravels, so do relationships.

Jack and Ruth Tisdale have come to the the-atre to celebrate their 25th anniversary. Ruth is so excited to be there, but Jack would much rather be at home watching the baseball game.

The lovable Tisdales meet many interesting characters in the VIP Lounge of the Charles Killian Theatre Noir Repertory House before the play starts.

One is Richard Hyde-Finch, the pompous, sarcastic director, played wonderfully by Chris Ostaffy. Everything that could go wrong does for Hyde-Finch, who has to deal with actors, wannabes and has-beens, and on top of it all, a girlfriend who wants to talk about their rela-tionship and why he won’t commit.

Mort Paul does a fantastic job playing Mi-chael Craig, an actor who can’t even get an au-dition these days and is best known as Handy Randy, the socket wrench in a hardware store commercial. He has some great lines and is very memorable.

As actor Clayton Fry, Vic Duffhues is great, and his accent, which he says was inspired by Pepe Le Pew, is sure to make you laugh.

Opening Night represents the acting debut of Lee Cadwallader and Chance Nobert, and they both do an excellent job. Cadwallader plays

Tom Delaney, a waiter in the VIP Lounge who wants to be on stage, while Nobert plays Libby Husniak, the young star of the Broadway show Whisper on the Wind, who causes more than a few problems for Hyde-Finch.

Debbie Williams plays Ruth Tisdale and is also Opening Night’s director. As the woman who received cans of wood stain for her 25th wed-ding anniversary, she brings a lot of warmth to the stage. Charles Harman is sweet as the bum-bling Jack Tisdale, who can’t seem to do or say anything right.

Jennifer Hodi is lovely as Hyde-Finch’s long-suffering girlfriend, the elegant Cilla Fraser. As the night goes on and everything unravels, she keeps trying to talk to Hyde-Finch about their relationship and is suspicious that he’s cheat-ing on her with Husniak.

Opening Night is an entertaining story, but it’s the people who really shine. The characters in this play are sweet, sarcastic, upset, unsure and very human, and every actor does a won-derful job of bringing them to life and making them relatable.

Opening Night is a great introduction to Ladysmith Little Theatre if you haven’t been to our community theatre yet and a great night out if you’re a regular theatregoer. Step-ping into the theatre, which received a fresh new look over the summer, you’ll find a ton of laughs and a ton of talent.

Opening Night runs until Sept. 29 at Ladysmith Little Theatre at 4985 Christie Rd. For more in-formation, call 250-924-0658 or visit www.lady-smiththeatre.com.

Gold for Fuller Lake Foursome

Nick BekolayTHE CHRONICLE

Two local cyclists powered their way to triple gold at the 2013 BC Seniors Games in Kamloops Aug. 24-26.

Sixty-year-old Sal-tair cyclist Tom

Sharpe finished first in three events for Novice riders aged 60-64, earning gold in the hill climb, time trial and road race events. Thetis Island’s Dave Steen, 71, earned identical honours in the Men’s 70-74 divi-sion.

Both athletes cred-ited rigorous training regimens for their success. Sharpe rides an average of five times each week and he’s ridden in several fondos, he said, but

competitive cycling is new to him.

Steen, meanwhile, is a devotee of the school of “hard inter-val” training, a rou-tine he acquired while training with Nike co-founder Bill Bower-man, his track coach at the University of Oregon. He’s no podi-um newcomer either; the former Toronto Star writer and edi-tor won shotput gold at both the 1966 and 1970 Commonwealth Games.

Riders from Saltair and Thetis Island return from Kamloops with three gold apieceTriple gold for local cyclists at BC Seniors Games

SportsChronicle

Fuller Lake Skating Club members Amber Ree, Sarah Kedves, Riley Buckner and Marina Ellison earned Skate Canada Gold recently. Ladysmith skaters Ree, 14, and Kedves, 13, passed Skate Canada’s Gold Skills test for 2013. Buckner, a 14-year-old skater from Chemainus, passed the Gold Skills and Gold Interpretive tests while 15-year-old Ellison, from Duncan, passed Gold Skills and Gold Freeskate, said Fuller Lake coach Shannon McKinlay. The club welcomes new skaters on an ongoing basis, McKinlay said. For club rates, practice times and contacts, please visit fullerlakeskatingclub.org. NICK BEKOLAY
