Body of Denman resident locatedErin HaluschakRecord Staff

The body of a 70-year-old Denman Island man was found Friday morning along a rocky shoreline following an exten-sive search by Comox Valley Ground Search and Rescue and Comox Valley RCMP.

Paul Berry, search manager and president of CVGSAR, said the man went missing Tuesday evening following dinner with a friend.

(he) told him he was planning on heading down to the beach to collect oysters. He was a fella with a pretty set routine. (The friends) met for breakfast on a pretty regular basis and when he didnt show up (Thursday) the call was put out, he explained.

Significant resources went into the search, added Berry, with teams from Parksville, Nanaimo, Campbell River, three coast guard vessels and an RCMP helicopter assisting.

Teams found a truck parked at a local trail on the Island, said Const. Don Sinclair of the Comox Valley RCMP.

In the morning, the man was located deceased on the rocky shore, approximately 150 to 200 metres from his truck, he added.

The coroner will investigate further, but Sinclair said the man did have a medical condi-tion. With a file from

A GROUP OF cole Robb Road Elementary students actively travel to and from school via bicycle.

Students getting active en route to schoolRenee AndorRecord Staff

The Comox Valley Board of Education highly praised this years pilot project designed to increase active travel to school.

The Active Travel program has been implemented at three Comox Valley elementary schools, cole Puntledge Park, cole Robb Road and Huband Park. Pro-gram co-ordinator Angela Holmes updated the board on the proj-ects progress last week, noting in May these schools can expect to receive student travel plans and best routes to school maps.

Board chair Peter Coleman said the project has significantly

exceeded his expectations.I think this is one of the best

things weve done in our man-date, he added to fellow trustees.

Although the pilot is not yet complete, trustee Donna Gamba-corta said she could personally see the results.

I live just two blocks from one of the pilot schools and if I didnt

know what was going on I would be questioning, because the cars are gone, she said. It used to be youd see one or two parents and their own kids (walking or bik-ing to school). Now, its five, six, seven kids giggling on their way to school and very few parents theyre travelling in groups and its really amazing to see.

Holmes gathered data via sur-veys to parents in the fall, which enabled her to see how fami-lies were travelling to school and determine barriers to increasing the number of students actively travelling to school.

She noted traffic congestion is a worry for many parents con-cerned about their childs safety when walking or biking to school. But, she also pointed out traf-fic congestion around schools is increased by parents driving their children to school, compounding the problem.

Fifty-eight per cent of fam-ily respondents to the survey in October said they are a one-

Continued from frontcar family driving to school, she continued. Theres not even a car-pooling culture going on, so theres lots of room for change, lots of room for improvement.

Many stakeholders have come together to make the project a suc-cess, including the four Comox Valley munici-palities, the Ministry of Transportation, Island Health, the Comox Val-ley RCMP, the Comox Valley Cycling Coali-tion, Comox Valley Cycling Task Force, Lake Trail Community Connections and school parents, staff, students and neighbours.

Stakeholder groups did walkabouts at each

pilot school earlier this year, looking at traffic congestion areas, iden-tifying hazards and walking potential best

routes to school.Holmes showed

the Board of Educa-tion draft best routes to school maps, which

highlight things like bus routes, the best biking and walking routes, trails, cross walks and prior-ity action items such a crosswalk upgrade slated for Huband and Mottishaw roads.

Trustee Sheila McDonnell, who first brought up the idea for the project more than a year ago, noted the travel plans are tai-lored to each school and she likes that input comes from numerous sources.

Funding for the pilot project came from the school district ($10,000), the cycling task force ($6,000), Courtenay ($5,000) and a Healthy Families BC grant, via Comox ($5,000).

If funding is avail-able for next year, the project will expand to three more Comox Val-ley [email protected]

BIKE SWAP SOONcole Robb Road Elementary will host a com-

munity bike swap April 13 to promote active travel to school and fundraise for school improvement projects.

Organizer and parent Lauren Lan hopes many people will buy and sell bikes and associated gear during the swap, which will happen from noon to 3.

Those wishing to sell must check in April 12 from 3 to 6 p.m. or April 13 from 9 to 11:30 a.m. Sellers will pay $1 to register each item they put up for sale, and there will be a consignment fee of 15 per cent up to $1,500 of the sale price.

Funds raised will go to planned Robb Road Legacy Projects like an outdoor classroom and an outdoor covered bike shelter.

Although adult bikes and gear will be gladly included, Lan points out the bike swap is designed to get more kids out on bikes.

Understandably, a lot of parents arent wanting to fork over $1,000 for a bike for their child that theyre potentially going to grow out of within a year or two, so its just a great opportunity for kids to get their hands on a bike without having to pay that big, brand new price tag that goes with it, says Lan.

Meeting here for spine trailScott Stanfield Record Staff

The Comox Valley will host the inaugural con-ference of the Vancouver Island Spine Trail Asso-ciation, intended to build momentum towards com-pleting a 700-kilometre tip-to-tip wilderness trail traversing the Islands spine from Victoria to Cape Scott.

The event is at the King-fisher Resort and Oceans-ide Spa in Royston on May 31 and June 1. Adventurer/backcountry guidebook author Phil Stone is the keynote speaker.

This conference is about building the excitement and capacity needed to complete a marquee outdoor feature for the enjoyment and ben-efit of our Vancouver Island communities and visitors alike, VISTA president Andrew Pape-Salmon said. Phil has over 25 years of experience climbing, hik-ing, kayaking and sailing to the most remote places on Vancouver Island.

Representatives from the Comox District Mountain-eering Club will attend the conference.

An Island-long trail connecting communities from Victoria to Cape Scott could contribute to tour-ism opportunities in those communities along the way, including the Comox Val-ley, CDMC president Pam Munroe said. Our prefer-ence would be to see this trail support non-motorized access.

Day One of the confer-ence features speakers and panels focused on co-ordi-nating and expanding the Islands networks of trails, best practices for new trail construction, and maximiz-ing economic opportunities from trail-based develop-ments and tourism. Day Two will feature guided hiking, mountain biking and trail running events on existing portions of the VI Spine trail.

Early bird registration ends March 31. Register at http://vispine.ca.

This is an ambitious project with a tight time-line but we know there is more than enough passion and determination on Van-couver Island to make the full spine trail a reality, Pape-Salmon said.

Hospital auxiliary turns 100Renee AndorRecord Staff

St. Josephs General Hospital held a special anniversary tea Friday celebrating 100 years of volunteerism by the hos-pital auxiliary.

Friday marked the 100th anniversary of the first recorded meeting of St. Josephs Hospital Aux-iliary. Hospital president and CEO Jane Murphy thanked auxiliary mem-bers past and present for the time and effort they have donated to the hospi-tal over the years.

The dedication and the commitment of the aux-iliary to our hospital is really quite incredible, Murphy told the packed hospital cafeteria. The work that the auxiliary does is, in a word, inspir-ing, truly inspiring to our organization.

Were very apprecia-tive and very thankful for your time and what you bring in fundraising to the hospital.

The auxiliary has about 120 members, which include women, and these days, men and youth, too. In 2013, it raised more than $250,000 for St. Josephs. In past 10 years, it has raised more than $1.7 million.

Plans to start up a hos-pital auxiliary were set in motion only weeks after the hospital first opened its doors in August 1913. By March, 1914 the first recorded meeting was headed by Mrs. W. Fletch-er, who was president of the auxiliary from 1914 to 1925.

Auxiliary ladies in the beginning hemmed sheets,

mended linens and rolled bandages. They collected produce from local farm-ers to can and make jam for use at the hospital, and to sell to raise funds for the hospital. They also held teas, raffles, and other events to fundraise for things the hospital needed.

The auxiliary started the candy striper program in 1969, and youth contin-ue to help with all kinds of activities and provide companionship to patients

and residents at the hospi-tal and The Views.

The auxiliary opened the hospital gift shop in 1980 and the thrift shop in 1987, both of which raise funds for the hospital.

Hospital board chair Chris Kelsey noted some of the numerous ways the auxiliary has helped the hospital through fundrais-ing, such as acquiring new equipment and patient comfort items, and fund-ing programs like music therapy and resident

activities.Each of you can be

seen every day, quietly going about your business, without fanfare, lending a hand wherever necessary, continued Kelsey. You dont ask for thanks you are doers and each of you should be extremely proud of what you have done, both individually and as an organization.

Judge Ross Green says restorative jus-tice holds a respected healing place in the legal system, and is an effective means of redressing criminal harms for victims and accused.

The noted Saskatch-ewan jurist/writer was this years presenter at the Iona Campagnolo Lecture on Restorative Justice on Thursday at North Island College.

Green the author of two influential books on the subject explored the changing and broadening roles of the evolving move-ment.

He talked a lot about his experi-ence with alterna-tives to court, and court annexed kinds of restorative justice practices in Saskatch-ewan, said Bruce Cur-tis, chief administrator of the Comox Valley Community Justice Centre.

Green was surprised and impressed with the range of styles and approaches employed at the CVCJC.

As opposed to pun-

ishment, restorative justice aims to restore a healthy relationship between the individual who caused the harm, the person who was harmed, and the com-munity that is always harmed when theres conflict.

Curtis said com-plainants and respon-dents often walk away from resolution confer-ence with a sense that magic happened.

When youre pro-vided a context and environment in which truth-telling can occur, and people are com-municating with each other, very often the vengeance or the ret-ribution being sought by complainants, or the huge amount of shame sometimes felt by respondents, can just melt away.

The result is a work-able, effective agree-ment between two parties.

Green was induct-ed as a fellow of the CVCJC at the lecture, which drew more than 100 people.

The annual event was established in honour of Campagno-lo, B.C.s first female lieutenant-governor.

The Comox Valley SPCA is warning dog owners to keep a close eye on their pets after pill-laced hot dogs were found near Head-quarters and Edwin roads.

Wednesday, B.C. SPCA Nanaimo & Dis-trict Branch Manager Leon Davis said a dog walker found the hot dogs and brought them to the attention of the organization, who has alerted the Comox Val-ley RCMP.

We dont what the pills are, but were hoping a pharmacist might be able to help us, he explained.

Obviously, theres a huge concern if theres more.

Davis said one per-son has reported his dog has not been feel-ing well, adding there were signs posted around the area with-out a name or phone number expressing displeasure with a dog who has been roaming and disturbing live-stock.

Whoever wrote the sign, were think-ing might have some knowledge of this and we do actually have a lead of the name of a person and weve passed that on to the RCMP who have opened a file and have contacted this person and will hopefully be able to bring this to a resolution.

He noted the SPCA are concerned there might be more poi-soned hot dogs around the area.

There could be something that could

risk not only their dogs, but children and wildlife.

Davis said if a dog or animal became sick, particularly if the ani-mal died, there could be charges under the criminal code.

Comox Valley RCMP are seeking the publics

assistance with any information related to the case.

Individuals with information are asked to call 250-338-1321 or to remain anonymous, call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS or text cvcstips to crime. [email protected]

Courtenay coun-cil and the regional district have tabled an approximate $12,000 bridge fund-ing request from the Comox Valley Housing Task Force to ensure progress of local home-lessness and housing matters.

Money would also help the organization transition to the next governance entity.

The group hosted the recent Building Housing Solutions Together event and a 2013 affordable hous-ing forum attended by various professionals, politicians and stake-holders.

The task force rec-ommends the regional district establish a service to collect funds regionally to address affordable housing and homelessness.

Within the service,

it hopes a local gov-ernment, non-profit corporation can be established to fulfill the service mandate.

The idea is to have one voice for funders in an effort to resolve the local homelessness and affordable housing crisis.

The arms-length organization would be able to perform func-tions beyond the scope of the CVRD.

Courtenay Coun. Starr Winchester, who questions the wisdom of forming another level of bureaucracy, said the City does not have the money to sup-port further forums.

People are tired of committees and stud-ies, Coun. Manno Theos said.

He noted a possible duplication of services, referring to social plan-ning consultant John Jessup.

Jessup is preparing a request for proposal for a supportive hous-

ing complex at Braid-wood Road in East Courtenay.

Tuesday, at regional district committee of the whole, Coun. Jon Ambler said the status quo is not working.

Ambler suggest-ed the CVRD is not ready to make a deci-sion until Braidwood and other projects can inform this debate.

The committee approved a motion from Comox director Ken Grant to defer for a year while explor-ing a public, non-profit model. Area B director Jim Gillis was opposed, noting the importance of the housing contin-uum. Ambler notes the district can revisit the issue earlier than one year.

Staff will report back about the funding request.

Can a social enter-prise supply local food to the Islands new hos-pitals?

The question was posed by business consultant/market-ing specialist Sandra Hamilton, who spoke about a social impact procurement pilot.

By matching sup-ply to demand and by using a seasonally-adjusted menu, Hami-ilton believes it could be economically viable to introduce a socially innovative local supply chain into the hospitals in Campbell River and Courtenay.

A $75,000 grant application to advance the project will be sub-mitted by months end.

Council praised Hamiltons efforts.

I commend you for championing the farm-ers in the Comox Val-ley, Winchester said.

Hamilton is seek-ing a letter of support to Comox Valley MLA Don McRae the Min-ister of Social Devel-opment and Social Innovation.

Hamilton wants the letter to show the Citys interest in the first provincial/municipal pilot of social impact purchasing.

Hamilton has also requested a letter of support from the regional district and matching funds of $75,000 for research. Staff will explore the possibility of providing money through gas tax funding. [email protected]

No new tax to fund capital projects: CourtenayScott Stanfield Record Staff

Courtenay council approved a five-year financial plan that requires no new taxa-tion to fund 2014 capi-tal projects.

Staff notes, however, that a zero per cent increase is not felt to be sustainable over time.

This years financial plan provides $5.1 mil-lion in planned projects for parks, fire/rescue services, recreation and cultural facilities, cemetery expenses, public works and infra-structure.

Gas tax revenues will fund the fourth phase of the Rails to Trails project from 21st to 26th streets ($100,000) and improvements to cycling lanes on Fitzgerald Avenue ($55,000).

The projected year end balance for the Community Works Fund (gas taxes) exceeds $2.9 million, which needs to be spent by 2018.

Along with the asset management planning that will take place, this will become a key source of rev-enue in using funds towards those prior-

ity projects, Financial Services Director Tillie Manthey said Monday.

Mayor Larry Jangu-la is disappointed the City is not investing more of these funds into pavement, bridg-es and infrastructure replacement. Gaming funds will be used to construct three bus shelters per year.

Demolition and cleanup of property at 810 Braidwood is slat-ed for 2015. The City purchased the site to construct a supportive housing complex in East Courtenay.

No new borrowing is proposed for this bud-

get year. Additional borrowing would be required for a pro-posed firehall/training grounds facility in East Courtenay and a new police services build-ing in 2015 and 2018

respectively. These projects are subject to public approval.

The public is noti-fied of changes to user fees through regular and special council meetings, and through the City website.

A new web-based communication tool dubbed Citizen Budget is being planned. Cost is about $1,700 per year, or three newspa-per ads.

I believe thats a very powerful tool for engaging every one of our citizens in the budget process and the prioritization process, Coun. Jon Ambler said.

Council will discuss the operating budget

Little Red Church jazz series finds new sponsor

Beltone Hearing Care Cen-tres is the new major sponsor of monthly jazz performances in Comox now known as the Beltone Jazz Series.

Event co-ordinator Rob Peter-son wishes to thank owners Jeff and Sharon Germain, for their generous support of this highly suc-cessful live jazz series.

On the heels of a great eve-ning of jazz last month, the next performance this Thursday prom-ises to deliver another great evening of live jazz entertain-ment, featuring the highly skilled jazz combo the Full House Band.

So, fasten your jazz seatbelts for an evening featuring the hard-bop style of Horace Silver and Art Blakey.

The band is led by one of Van-couver Islands finest saxophone and clarinet musicians, Claudio Fontinato, whose solo work is performed with effortless mas-tery. Claudios many credentials include studies at Berklee College of Music and performing for none other thanOprah Winfrey.

In 2012, Claudio partnered with Juno Award winner Phil

Dwyer to form Seawind Musical Instruments, a business partner-ship involved in the assembly and distribution of their own custom line of saxophones.

For details, see www.seawind-music.com.

Other members of the five-piece combo include an exceptional drummer, James McCrae. Based in Nanaimo, this in-demand drummer has performed with the likes of Connor Stewart, Kyle Gorenko, Nico Rhodes and Nic Lariviere, to name a few. To say

the least, the word sensation-al best describes the drumming skill that James will display.

On keyboard is Patrick Cour-tin, an active member of the Nanaimo music communi-ty. Patrick holds a bachelors degree in music and a Grade 10 conser-vatory level. He performs in the

Nanaimo and Area Musicians Big Band.

On bass and guitar is Doug Gretsinger, a well-known Vancou-ver Island musician, with three CDs to his credit.

Doug is one of the busiest musi-cians on Vancouver Island with current projects in eight differ-ent groups,as detailed on Dougs website at fastfingersdoug.wix.com.

Rounding out the personnel is the high-calibre musicianship of Larry Miller on saxophone,

flute and clarinet. Larry holds masters of music degrees from the University of Victoria. Musi-cal credentials include perfor-mances with the Motown group, The Temptations and performing during a Victoria appearance of Bob Newhart.

The opening act will be local

musicianMatteo Kennedy.This multi-talented rising

music star will apply his power vocals and guitar to a mix of jazz standards and blues.

The Beltone Jazz Series home is the Little Red Church, a family-friendly venue in Comox.

The purchase of tea, coffee, soft

drinks and goodies is currently by donation to the Comox Valley Therapeutic Riding Association.

Advance tickets are available at Bop City in Courtenay and the Red Carpet Boutique in Comox.

Doors open at 7 p.m. and per-formance begins at 7:30.

THE FULL HOUSE Band will launch the Beltone Jazz Series this Thursday at the Little Red Church in Comox.

Band is led by one of Vancouver Islands finest saxophone and clarinet musicians

On the heels of a great evening of jazz last month, the next performance this Thursday promises to deliver another great evening of live jazz entertainment, featuring the highly skilled jazz combo the Full House Band.

Hosted by Toronto reggae col-lective House of David Gang, a Bob Marley Legacy Tribute Con-cert will happen this Saturday in Courtenay.

Joined by King Selah, Rasta Reuben, Emma Plant and Ganjo Bassman at the Bridge Lounge, House of David Gangs Bob Mar-ley Tribute is heartfelt to one of the greatest musical and political

figures of our time. In addition to experiencing

the great music and great vibes, attendees can help contribute to a good cause by bringing non-per-ishable food items for the Comox Valley Food Bank.

Focusing on performing a wide variety of music from Bob Mar-leys catalog; from his early sin-gles on Studio One, Trojan and

Tuff Gong to his biggest hits on Island Records, House of David Gangs Bob Marley Birthday Trib-ute is one of the hottest reggae concert tours of the year showcas-ing the best of Canadas burgeon-ing original reggae music scene and raising food donations for local food banks.

Throughout their career, House of David Gang has been known

for their uplifting roots rock reg-gae sound reminiscent of Kings-ton, Jamaicas music scene in the late 70s and 80s highly influ-enced by the works of Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, Bunny Wailer, Dennis Brown and Gregory Isaacs mixed with a modern roots Canadian feel.

The band takes its name from The House of David, an after-

hours spot on Queen Street West in Toronto.

The club was a hotspot for art-ists from the citys burgeoning Rastafarian and reggae commu-nity from the late 80s until the mid-90s.

The Bob Marley tribute music starts March 22 at 9 p.m. at the Bridge Lounge.

Angelique Kidjo was born in Ouidah, Benin, on July 14, 1960.

Her mother was a performer in a dance and theatre ensemble and her father was a banjo player. These influences shaped Kidjos love for the stage and performing.

After leaving Benin in the early 1980s because of the unstable political climate, Kidjo lived in Paris for a time. She now makes her home in New York with her husband and their teenage daughter.

Angelique Kidjos music is rooted in the music of Benin, both traditional and con-temporary. It is her love for other genres of music that have led her to international fame, though, as her use of jazz and pop influences in her music have made her accessible to people from all over the globe.

Kidjo, who will perform at the 2014 Vancouver Island MusicFest, sings in four languages and has worked with many of the worlds finest musicians, including

Joss Stone and Peter Gabriel.

Kidjo achieved mod-erate success as a solo musician in her early 20s, but her career really took off when she joined the Euro-pean jazz-funk-African fusion band Pili Pili as the lead singer in the mid-1980s.

After touring exten-sively with that group for several years, a revived attempt at a solo career proved suc-cessful with both critics and fans, and eventu-ally led to major inter-

national fame.She travelled to

Kenay, Benin, from south to north and back, armed with a six-track field recorder, to capture the sweet rhythmic harmonies and chants of tradition-al women choirs. With the contribution of the Beninese percussion-ists from the Gaqngbe Brass Band, Kidjo laid the musical foundation of the album in New York with an ensemble of top session musi-ciansguitarist Lio-nel Loueke, guitarist

Dominic James, drum-mer Steve Jordan, bass great Christian McBrideunder the guidance of producer Patrick Dillett, a long-time collaborator of David Byrne.

On Jan. 28, Angelique released a new album, Eve, dedicated to the women of Africa, to their resilience and their beauty.

Helping the singer fulfill her vision on Eve are a host of exciting prominent newcomers to her musical circle, including guitarist and keyboardist Rostam Batmanglij from Vam-pire Weekend; Nigeri-an folk singer ASA on Eva; legendary pianist Dr. John, who adds his New Orleans magic to Kulumbu; the Kronos Quartet and the Lux-embourg Philharmonic Orchestra.

The album debuted at No. 1. on the Bill-board world music chart.

MusicFest happens July 11 to 13. For more information, visit www.islandmusicfest.com.

Beware the Ides of March.

Historically, March 15 has not been kind to reign-ing royalty. In 44 BC, it was the day Roman emperor Julius Caesar was assas-sinated.

In 2014, it was the day the Comox Valley Glacier Kings were eliminated from the Vancouver Island Junior Hockey League playoffs.

The Peninsula Panthers defeated the Glacier Kings 2-1 in double overtime Sat-urday night in Courtenay to take their best-of-seven, second-round playoff series 4-3.

It was a tough loss for the Yetis, who had defeated the Panthers 3-1 on March 12 to take a 3-2 lead in the series. But the Panthers pulled out a 5-4 win at home on March 14 then completed the comeback the next night.

Game 7 featured Michael Hails and Stephen Heslop continuing their goalten-ders duel that had high-lighted the series.

Wil Finlay gave the Gla-cier Kings the lead at 9:04 of the first, with Connor Logan pulling the visitors even at 18:25. Neither goalie would give an inch through the end of regula-tion and the first 10-min-ute OT period.

Cole Glover proved the somewhat unlikely hero for the Panthers, batting the

puck past Hails at 8:33 of the second extra period for just his second post-season goal.

The Yetis out-shot Pen-insula 7-6 in overtime, with the Panthers holding a 27-24 SOG edge overall. The G-Kings were 0-for-3 on the power play while Peninsula went 0-for-4.

The Panthers evened the series 3-3 March 14 in Peninsula, out-shooting the Yetis 31-27. The teams were tied 2-2 after one peri-od with the Panthers up 5-4 after two.

The visitors went 3-for-

10 on the power play, including man-advantage markers by Dallas Maxwell and Nick Govig just over a minute apart that tied the game in the first.

Peninsula went up 4-2 in the second before Liam Shaw got one back for the Icemen. Peninsula went up 5-3, and Jordan Kamprath potted a power-play goal with 16 seconds left, but the Yetis got no closer.

In Game 5 on March 12 in Courtenay, Hails and Heslop kept things score-less through two periods before the Panthers took

the lead early in the third.Then the Yetis power

play went to work.At 6:54 Eric Margo

tied things up and Dallas Maxwell put the Icemen in front to stay at 15:01. Margo sealed the deal with an empty netter with 1:09 left in the game.

Glacier Kings out of playoffs Ice boys fourth at B.C. tourneyEarle CouperRecord Staff

The Mark Isfeld Ice senior boys basketball team finished fourth at the B.C. AAA high school champion-ships, March 12-15 at the Langley Events Centre.

The Ice (Vancouver Island #1) opened with a 45-39 win over the Maple Ridge Ramblers (Fraser Valley #3) on Wednesday. The Courtenay crew trailed 14-9 after one quarter and 21-16 at the half but kicked their offence into high gear the rest of the way.

They out-scored Maple Ridge 15-8 in the third quarter to grab a 31-29 lead, then traded buckets in the fourth quarter to emerge with a six-point margin of victory.

The Ice scoring was evenly balanced. Morgan Proctor led the way with 10 points while Richard Girard, Cole Hutchings and Kaefer Owen added nine each. Kaefer Noah contrib-uted eight points. Girard had four steals and four assists.

In Thursdays quarter-finals, the Ice edged Sir Charles Tupper Tigers (Lower Mainland #1) 61-60. Isfeld led 20-13 after one quarter and 35-25 at the half. The Tigers closed the gap to 44-39 after three quarter, but the Ice hung

on for the one-point win.Hutchings had a game-

high 24 points while Proc-tor added 14 and Owen scored 10.

In Fridays semifinals the Ice fell 73-65 to Charles Hays Rainmakers (North West). Isfeld led 25-24 after one quarter and 45-43 at the half, but Charles Hays had a big 16-9 third quar-ter to move in front 59-54 then held on for the win.

Hutchings again led all scorers with 26 points while Girard added 17 and Owen hit for 12.

On Saturday the B.C. bronze medal was on the line when the Ice met the Abbotsford Panthers (Fra-ser Valley #1). It was close through the first half with Abbotsford leading 21-20 and 37-36 by quarter. But the Panthers got stronger as the game wore on, open-ing a 51-42 lead after three quarters then out-scoring the Ice 20-9 down the stretch to win by 20.

Hutchings led all scorers with 18 points while Girard had 14 and Proctor scored 11. For his sterling efforts, Hutchings was named Best Defensive Player at the 16-team tourney and also was selected to the first all-star team.

St. Thomas More defeat-ed Charles Hays 53-38 to win the provincial crown.

Isfeld Ice senior girls finish 10th at B.C. basket-ball champion-ships -- SEE PAGE 12

The Isfeld Ice senior girls basketball team made school history by being the first senior girls team to make it to the AA Provinicial Championships, which were held March 5-8 at the Langley Events Centre.

The girls lost their first game 56-42 to Sahali Sabres (a school that has made many Provincial appear-ances) then bounced back with a 79-63 win against Charles Hays Rainmakers.

For their third game the Ice demonstrated excellent offence and defence. They moved the ball quickly, shot well and played such intense defence they

were able to shut down three six-foot players which resulted in a 74-47 victory against Abbotsford Christian Knights (a team that lost their first game by one to Vernon, who ended up sixth).

For their final game the Ice started out strong and led the Rick Hansen Hurricanes by 12 to 18 points throughout the first half.

In the second half Rick Hansens out-side shooters hit some threes to close the gap and Isfeld struggled to make the shots that theyd been sinking in the first half.

This shifted the momentum and unfor-

tunately Isfeld couldnt maintain the lead and ended up losing 67-59. Having two wins and two losses resulted in a top 10 finish for Isfeld (10th out of 16) as well as providing memories that will last a lifetime. Avery Snider, Malia Irvine, Leah Cicon and Danielle Vanbergen were awarded players of the game for Isfeld.

Snider also made the second all-star team, and at the opening banquet was named one of the top 16 female basketball players in B.C.

The coaches thank everyone who support-ed the team through-out the year and give special thanks to all

the fans who cheered the team on at the Pro-vincials.

Theyd also like to say a big thanks to the girls for the time, effort

and dedication they gave to the team and wish the graduating girls all the best for the future.

Ready to Run & Gun?This springs edition

of the Comox Valley Run & Gun Basketball League starts Tuesday, April 1 at G.P. Vanier.

This is an evening basketball league for Grade 8 and 9 boys who live in the Comox Val-ley or Campbell River. The league has been going for over 20 years, and is tremendously helpful in improving the quality of basket-ball at the three local high schools, notes organizer Larry Street.

Leagues like this have helped make Courtenay a hotbed for talent, and teams going to the Provin-cial championships notably like Mark Isfeld and Highland did this year, Street said.

Run & Gun will go to the end of May, and runs every Tuesday and Thursday from 7 to 9 p.m. Sign-up will be on the first scheduled night of April 1, where teams will be orga-

nized, and other details will be announced. Cost is $30 per partici-pant.

For more informa-tion e-mail [email protected].

Meanwhile, the 2014 Thunderball Basket-ball League is quickly approaching for all Grade 4 to 7 boys and girls in the Valley.

The league was started by Grant Ashlee and has con-tinued with direc-tors Larry Street and Blake Tobacca running the mini basketball programs out of G.P. Vanier (Grade 6 and 7) and Lake Trail Mid-dle (Grade 4 and 5) on Sunday mornings.

The league starts the first Sunday of April (6th) and contin-ues for seven Sundays through June 1. All the coaching is primar-ily high school bas-ketball players from Vanier and Mark Isfeld schools, with direction from the directors.

Over the years we usually get between 120 and 150 young-sters who want to play the game. Each Sun-day includes a half hour practice followed by a 45-minute game, and the emphasis is on fun! Street said.

The final sign-up night is on Monday, March, 31. Interested participants can also pick up registration forms at all the ele-mentary and middle schools, or send a form by e-mailing [email protected].

For further informa-tion, contact Street at 250-703-3646. Forms can also be picked up at G.P. Vaniers main office during the school day. Cost is $40 per registrant ($50 with basketball). This includes a team shirt, 20 hours of instruction and game time, and plenty of good times.
