Variety of fundraisers support Tour de RockLindsay ChungTHE CHRONICLE
The arrival of the Cops for Cancer Tour de Rock in Ladysmith and Chemainus is still more than two weeks away, but there are lots of ways to support the cause lead-ing up to the main event.
In Chemainus, plans are underway for a new fundraising event, The Great Hair Event, which will take place Saturday, Sept. 14 from 1-4 p.m. at the Chemainus Seniors Drop-In Centre.
Along with head shaves, there will be mu-sic, games and burgers barbecued by Jen Prunty, a 2013 Tour de Rock (TDR) rider and former North Cowichan police officer, to raise money for Camp Goodtimes, a camp for the children who have survived cancer or are undergoing treatments.
Jan O’Neill, a volunteer with the
Cowichan Unit of the Canadian Cancer Society and co-chair of the TDR commit-tee, says the Great Hair Event is something new for 2013, as they wanted to “pump things up” this year.“We’re really hoping for a fun day,” she
said.Urban Legends is sending two hairdress-
ers to the event, and as of Monday, five people had signed up to have their heads shaved — including Chemainus Theatre Festival volunteer Eric Marshall and North Cowichan Mayor John Lefebure.“Head shaving has become synonymous
with Tour de Rock fundraisers because so many people, when they undergo chemo-therapy, they lose their hair,” noted O’Neill. Anyone wishing to participate in this
head shave can call O’Neill at 250-246-5351 to register or donate towards a shave. Do-nation forms can be picked up from the
Chemainus Theatre, and people can do-nate at www.tourderock.ca or at the event.
In Ladysmith, the Ladysmith Downtown Business Association (LDBA) is promoting an “adopt a rider” program.
For a $50 donation to TDR, the LDBA will provide you with a sign showing spon-sorship of your rider. You, an employee, a friend or neighbour will then be asked to hold up that sign on First Avenue while the riders cycle into town Monday, Sept. 30.
Then you can head down to the Ladysmith and District Credit Union (LDCU) parking lot and have a professional photo taken of you and your rider.
Anyone who would like to sponsor a rider can contact Cathleen McMahon at [email protected] or 250-668-3338.
Local residents can make a tribute to a cancer survivor or anyone who has made a difference in the fight against cancer
through the LDCU’s Wall of Heroes mural. For a minimum $50 donation, artist Kelly Everill will write the name of your cancer hero in a rock on the hand-painted mural beside the Credit Union at 330 First Ave.
To be included on the Wall of Heroes for the 2013 Tour, donations and names should be received by Sept. 23.
Leading up to the TDR riders’ arrival, there are a number of ongoing fundraisers.
Vancouver Island Insurance Centre in Coronation Mall is hosting a bike draw to support TDR from now until Sept. 30. Make a donation to TDR and be entered to win one of three bikes.
The Junction Bottle Depot is onboard, and people are invited to return their bot-tles and cans to 149 Oyster Bay Rd. and tell the attendant to donate the money to TDR.
From Sept. 23-29, Tim Hortons will sup-port TDR through sales of Smile Cookies.

New leadership for Ladysmith RCMPStaff Sergeant Dave Herman assumes command of Ladysmith force in wake of Chomyn’s departure
NewsChronicle
RCMP bust grow op
Ladysmith RCMP cut short the ambitions of those responsible for a local marijuana grow operation last week.
Having applied for and received a search warrant “pursuant to the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act,” RCMP officers visited a property — located “within the city limits of Ladysmith,” explained Const. Brigitte Goguen — where they discovered 100 mature marijuana plants being cultivated outdoors.
The RCMP reaped the $100,000 harvest, uprooting bud-bearing plants with an
“estimated street value of $1,000 per plant,” Goguen said.
Two adult males associated with the property were arrested at the scene and were later released, Goguen said, and the investigation remains ongoing.
CUPE Local 606 celebrates
CUPE Local 606 (Mid-Island School workers) is putting on a 50th anniversary celebration picnic Saturday, Sept. 21 from 1-5 p.m. at the Transfer Beach Amphitheatre.
There will be live entertainment from David Gogo and Ryan McMahon. National CUPE president Paul Moist will be at the celebration, as well as recently-retired CUPE BC president and former Local 606 president Barry O’Neill. MLA Doug Routley will also be attending.
The event is free for CUPE Local 606 members and the public, but Local 606 is asking attendees to bring down non-perishable food items for the Ladysmith Food Bank.
Nick BekolayTHE CHRONICLE
A recent change of leadership at the Ladysmith RCMP brought a new top cop to town earlier this summer.
Staff Sgt. Dave Herman — a for-mer watch commander with the Nanaimo RCMP — has served as Ladysmith’s new detachment com-mander since July 31, he said.
Herman stepped in when Staff Sgt. Larry Chomyn left his post six weeks ago to assume command of the West Shore RCMP, a position that earned Chomyn a promotion to the rank of Inspector.
Ladysmith’s new commander in chief described his family as hav-ing longstanding ties to Vancou-ver Island and to Nanaimo before revealing how his childhood was defined in large part by the prov-ince’s timber industry. “I grew up as a small boy entirely in logging camps on Vancouver Island and the Queen Charlotte Islands un-til I was 11 years old,” Herman explained.
“And then we moved down to Port Alberni, where I did the bulk of my schooling.” At the age of 16, Her-
man took on logging as a form of summer employment and it would remain his pri-mary source of rev-enue as he worked his way through high school and university.
By the time he gradu-ated from the Univer-sity of Victoria with a bachelor of arts — “I majored in sociology and history,” Herman explained — he had eight years’ worth of logging expe-rience under his belt. Rather than live the life of a full-time lumber-man, though, Herman opted to join the Mounties instead.
Herman signed up with the RCMP in 1980 during an era when
“the rule was that you don’t come back [from training] to serve in your home province,” he said.
That led Herman to spend the first six years of his policing ca-reer in Red Deer, Alta.
In 1986, Herman transferred to “a three-man post” in Fort Vermil-lion, a remote trapping community
on the Slave River in north-central Alberta.
Two years later, Herman traded snares and pelts for boots and spurs when he moved to Pincher Creek, a farming and ranching hub in southwestern Alberta.
Herman spent the next five years patrolling Pincher Creek, “the cowboy town of cowboy towns,” before transferring to Calgary in 1993 to join the RCMP’s General Investigations Section (GIS).
Shortly after his arrival, Her-man’s section morphed into a Ma-jor Crimes Unit responsible for ho-micide investigations throughout southern Alberta.
Solving murders would serve as Herman’s mainstay until 2000 when he accepted a position with the North Vancouver RCMP’s Seri-ous Crime Unit, a predecessor of the RCMP’s Integrated Homicide Investigation Team.
In 2002, he returned to uniformed policing when he was promoted to
a post in Port Hardy, a fishing and logging hub on northern Van-couver Island Her-man described as “a northern version of Ladysmith.”
Herman left Port Hardy in 2006 to serve as a watch command-er in Campbell River. He then returned to investigative work the following year when he joined Port Al-berni’s GIS division, a detail that would see Herman focus on se-rious crime, drug en-forcement and homi-cides from December 2007 through Decem-ber 2010. A watch command-
er’s position with the Nanaimo RCMP served as the next stop on Herman’s career path. Work-ing two-day, two-night shifts for two and a half years, Herman was
“in charge of all the operational members out on the road and a good portion of the investigative side,” he said.
Herman views his arrival in Ladysmith as a fortunate turn of events. “I have always had an interest in being a detachment commander,” Herman explained, “and I have now been given an opportunity to
do so.”Under Herman’s command is
a staff of 12 uniformed officers including two Corporal supervi-sors, one First Nations Policing Program officer and nine “general duty” officers.
Herman’s first impressions of the detachment’s public outreach programs are largely positive —
“the detachment was left to me in
pretty good shape,” he explained but he sees room for improve-ment.“I definitely want to see the
First Nations Policing Program expanded,” Herman added. “And I want to build on strengthen-ing the relationships between the RCMP and the First Nations communities, in particular out on Penelakut.”
Staff Sergeant Dave Herman assumed command of the Ladysmith RCMP July 31 following the departure of his predecessor, Staff Sergeant Larry Chomyn. Herman has spent more than three decades with the RCMP, and his assign-ments have ranged from policing remote northern communities to investigat-ing major crimes with large urban task forces.

Above, Dagmar Wichary, a former Yellow Point resident who now lives in north Nanaimo, flips through photo albums during the Grand Opening of the North Oyster Community Centre on Sunday, Sept. 8, which celebrated the end of a 20-year-long restoration project. Wichary’s children used to go to school in this building, and she was happy to see it renovated and to re-connect with old friends. The Grand Opening coincided with the 100th anniversary of the building. Originally built as a schoolhouse on the grounds cur-rently occupied by the North Oyster Elementary School, the structure was completed in 1912 and opened in 1913. During the Grand Opening, North Oyster and Area Historical president Bob Handel showed off the Occupancy Certificate for the entire building (at top left), which the society had just received. Below left, Lance Hawthornthwaite of North Oyster signs the guestbook and creates a name tag. Sunday’s celebration was the first time in 20 years that people were able to access every section of the building. Lindsay Chung

Legion assists GreenesNick Bekolaythe chronicle
Trevor Greene is one step closer to walking again, a prospect the wounded Afghan Veteran thinks is “very exciting.” A fundraising campaign
launched by Nanaimo teenager Rebecca Lumley and championed by the RCL’s BC-Yukon Command racked up $113,000 in donations in only three months, said Inga Kruse, executive director for BC-Yukon Command, and the funds have now been earmarked to pur-chase a robotic exoskeleton for Greene in the near future.
Provided Greene’s slow and steady recovery enables him to wear the suit — produced by Eckso Bionics, a California-based robotics company — Greene is destined to walk again, something he hasn’t been able to do since he was first injured on March 4, 2006.
While serving with the Cana-dian Forces in Afghanistan that day, Greene was attacked by an axe-wielding 16-year-old boy.
Greene’s attacker approached him from behind while he was
seated with a group of elders in a rural Afghan village. The boy pulled a homemade axe from beneath his robes and plunged it into Greene’s exposed skull.
Greene survived, but the attack left him severely brain damaged.
Defying the odds — doctors assumed he would never wake from his coma — Greene re-gained consciousness.“When he first woke up, he
couldn’t so much as move a fin-ger,” explained his wife Debbie following an Aug. 29 cheque pre-sentation at the Ladysmith Le-gion, “and now he’s working on parallel bars at the physiothera-pist’s and with a walker at home.” “Ecstatic” is how Debbie de-scribed her reaction to the pos-sibility of Trevor regaining his ability to walk.“I haven’t seen him walk since he left for Afghanistan in January 2006,” she added.
Speaking to a small crowd of Ladysmith Legion members, Trevor thanked both the Legion and Veterans Affairs for their support before pledging: “Some-day, I’m going to walk through those front doors.”

Current Legion presi-dent Gary Phillips (left) and past president Roy Empey present a cheque for $3,366 to Trevor and Debbie Greene at the Ladysmith Legion Thursday, Aug. 29. La-dysmith’s contribution represents a fraction of the total funds raised for the Greenes by the Royal Canadian Le-gion’s B.C.-Yukon com-mand. Command-wide, the RCL raised more than $113,000 in three months, said Inga Kruse, B.C.-Yukon Command’s executive director. The funds have been ear-marked to purchase a robotic exoskeleton for Trevor from California-based Eckso Bionics once he is “medically able” to use the suit, Kruse added.

Local politicians from across B.C. are in Vancou-ver Sept. 16 to 20
to take part in the annual Union of B.C. Municipali-ties (UBCM) convention.
Serious discussion will revolve around a report by a UBCM executive commit-tee to reshape the financial relationship between the province and local govern-ments. If this proposal gets the support it deserves, Premier Christy Clark’s government will be asked to undo a couple of decades of political meddling in that relationship.
One problem for local governments is that they depend on property tax, a stable source of revenue but one that has no rela-tionship to the property owner’s ability to pay. It tends to load costs onto lower-income groups such as seniors and renters.
Economic growth results mainly in increased corpo-
rate and personal income tax revenues as well as sales taxes, which aren’t shared with local govern-ments.
One key proposal is to re-turn to a system of revenue sharing grants introduced by the Social Credit gov-ernment in the 1980s. They were funded by one point each from personal and corporate income tax and six per cent of sales, fuel and resource tax revenues, thus increasing in years when provincial revenues were strong.
The UBCM proposal is to put a share of provincial revenues into an infrastruc-ture bank, to be distributed by the organization on a more stable basis.
Saanich Mayor Frank Leonard, one of the authors of the report, uses a basket-ball analogy to describe the current system of federal-provincial grants for road and bridge projects. It’s a “jump ball,” where com-munities have to apply to a fund when it’s offered and then see who gets it.
Even if a community wins the jump ball, they may find themselves with costs inflated by a hot construc-tion market and an arbi-trary deadline to get the job done.
Then there are new regu-lations imposed by senior governments. The most dramatic example these days is a 2020 federal dead-line for Greater Victoria to construct land-based sewage treatment. Even with federal and provincial cost sharing, this project is going to land heavily on property tax bills, includ-ing those of pensioners and poor renters who will have it passed on to them.
Leonard points to another arbitrary system, provincial facilities that pay grants in lieu of property taxes. Saanich is home to the Uni-versity of Victoria, a com-munity of 25,000 people that needs water and sewer service, as well as police and fire protection. Saan-ich gets an annual grant in lieu of property taxes of $120,000 for UVic, enough
to cover wages and ben-efits for one cop and maybe some gas money.
Cariboo Regional District chair Al Richmond, co-chair of the UBCM com-mittee, is concerned about new water and flood pro-tection legislation the prov-ince is preparing to impose.
Interior communities also want BC Hydro to pay something for power lines, as is now being done with some aboriginal territories.
Local politicians will be expecting a sympathetic ear from the new version of the B.C. Liberal govern-ment. Former Quesnel councillor Coralee Oakes is the new community, sport and cultural development minister, with direct re-sponsibility for local gov-ernment issues.
And one of the original members of this UBCM committee was former Langley City mayor Peter Fassbender, who is now minister of education.
Tom Fletcher is legisla-tive reporter and colum-nist for Black Press.

The countdown is on for the arrival of the annual Cops for Cancer Tour de Rock in Ladysmith and Chemainus Sept. 30 and Oct. 1.
It’s always an inspiring, emotional time, and I’m sure this year will be no different. There are so many stories of bravery in the face of cancer, and countless people, businesses, organizations and groups step up to support this great cause in an incredible way.
The Canadian Cancer Society Cops for Cancer Tour de Rock (TDR) raises money for pediatric cancer re-search and programs for children with a history of cancer. The TDR team cycles from one end of Van-couver Island to the other, covering 1,000 kilometres.
This year, Ladysmith resident Misty Dmytar, a con-stable with the Nanaimo RCMP, is riding in the 14-day Tour. Her reason for participating? Her two-year-old son Griffyn, who was just four days old when he was diagnosed with neuroblastoma. After surgery and treatments, the disease has been effectively dormant since 2010.
Children are the main beneficiaries of TDR fundrais-ing, as money raised during the Tour goes to Camp Goodtimes, a camp for children who have survived cancer or are undergoing treatments.
As we gear up for the Red Serge Dinner in Ladysmith, the TDR committee is still looking for silent auction items for the dinner. Anyone who would like to con-tribute to the auction can contact Kim Judson at 250-245-6390.
The Red Serge Dinner will take place Monday. Sept. 30 at 7 p.m. at the Eagles Hall. Tickets are now on sale for $25 at the Chronicle and at Ladysmith and District Credit Union. —Lindsay Chung

Healthcare Auxiliary Thrift Store nixes nighttime drop-offs
Editor: The Ladysmith Healthcare
Auxiliary needs help from the
community. We are receiving after-hours (night) donations of goods to our Thrift Store.
Though this was somehow possible in the past, today we have no way of “receiving” these goods. They are either stolen or strewn on the side-walk. This may cause injury to the public and is of great concern to us. We are also financially responsible for disposing of the remains of goods that have been “picked over.”
The donations become litter, and there is a city bylaw and $50 fine for such activities.
We are grateful for dona-tions and to our loyal custom-ers and to our hard-working volunteers. Together, we have raised approximately $4.1 million towards health care in the community.
Please spread the word that we can no longer accept any donations after business hours.

Local artist Rob Kernachan applauds efforts of Arts on the Avenue volunteers
Editor: Being relatively new to the
art show scene, this year was
my first time taking part in Arts on the Avenue.
I figure if I don’t use first names, I won’t miss anyone, and I’m sure they know who they are.
As an artist, I’m amazed and grateful for all the volunteers’ attention to all the artists.
You guys are the best! Thank you.
From coffee and donuts at the set-up to the water throughout the day, it was a seamless experience.
Thanks Ladysmith — you rock!
Keeping with the no-name concept, the artists on stilts embodied the whole feel. Awesome.

There is something brewing in a Yellow Point cornfield.
Inspired by the community work of his local coffee shop, farmer Murray McNab carved a giant image of the COCO
Café’s logo into his seven-acre cornfield at McNab’s Corn Maze on Yellow Point Road to show his support.
The large steaming coffee cup has be-come the symbol of the Cedar-based café that provides a warm and supportive place for its workers with developmental dis-abilities to interact with the community.
McNab’s corn was recently featured as one of the menu items for a summer wedding catered by the café.
Use of local ingredi-ents is another draw for customers who are attracted by the social objectives of the café on Cedar Road.
The café celebrated its second year of op-eration in June. An-other milestone was having the first em-ployee with a devel-opmental disability transitioning into full-time employment at the café.
These achievements have not been with-out challenges.
Trish Johnston, one of the café’s founders, notes that COCO’s
staffing costs are sig-nificantly higher than a regular café — often more than double.“We exist to provide
opportunities for our community members who face challenges due to developmental disabilities to work and be a recognized part of our commu-nity,” she says. “The more income we can generate, the more work opportunities we are able to pro-vide.”
The café has identi-fied catering as key to helping achieve the goal of financial sustainability without having to rely on any
external funding. The catering also creates a great platform for COCO’s goals of in-clusion and visibility within the community.
After an exciting summer, which in-cluded the café’s first catered wedding, café manager Melanie Cad-den and her team are looking forward to the Christmas season.“Our staff enjoy the
different work experi-ences provided by ca-tering, and customers enjoy knowing that their meal purchase supports the work of the café,” says Cad-den.
The café provides
onsite catering and deliveries in the Ladysmith, Nanaimo, Parksville and Qua-licum areas. Catering menus are available on the café’s website at cedaropportunities.coop, via e-mail at [email protected] or by calling 250-323-2223.
Right now, COCO Café is in the running to win a new van for catering deliveries. The café is asking ev-eryone to help them win a new van by vis-iting ReaList Realty on Facebook and tell-ing them why COCO Café deserves a van.— Submitted

Strict enforcement of school zone speed limits now in effect
Nick Bekolaythe chronicle
As students return to school, the Ladysmith RCMP and SpeedWatch volunteers will be out in full force to remind drivers to slow down in school zones.
Const. Brigitte Goguen, one of sever-al RCMP officers from the Ladysmith detachment who will be monitoring motorists in the coming weeks, of-fered to review the rules of the road for Chronicle readers.
Goguen stressed the importance of slowing down near schools and play-grounds, reminding motorists that speed limits of 30 kilometres per hour apply from 8 a.m. through 5 p.m. in school zones and from “dusk to dawn all year round” near playgrounds.
When passing through residential neighbourhoods, Goguen encouraged motorists to “watch for the unexpect-ed.” “Look out for small children walking
on sidewalks and curbing, and be cau-tious while approaching intersections,” Goguen added. “Small children do not quickly recognize the danger of a mov-ing car like a teen or an adult would.”As a precaution, Goguen advised mo-
torists to think twice before passing vehicles stopped in the street, as they
may be waiting for children to cross the road.
Cellphones and handheld devices are dangerous distractions that Goguen suggested drivers keep out of reach while they’re on the road. “Operating, holding, communicating
or just looking at the screen of a hand-held device is illegal when driving, and doing so carries a fine of $167,” Goguen added.
While on the subject of fines, Goguen reminded motorists that excessive speeding in school zones will be met with punishing penalties. For example, a driver clocked at 71 kilometres per hour in a 30 kilometre-per-hour zone will be fined $368 while having their vehicle impounded for seven days.
To further drive home the impor-tance of observing posted speed lim-its, Goguen shared the following sur-vival statistics for collisions involving children: “The chances of a pedestrian child surviving being hit by a car going 30 kilometres per hour is 90 per cent; if that same car is driving 50 kilome-tres per hour, that chance of survival drops to 10 per cent.” “It is imperative that drivers adjust their driving behaviour now that school is in — back to school means back to slow,” Goguen stated.

Parents are advised to review the rules of the road and to walk their child’s daily route to school, while Goguen advises drivers to slow down in school zones, watch for small children, place their smartphones out of reach and to use caution when passing vehicles stopped in the road.

First Avenue Barber Shop HAS MOVED!
New Chemainus mall on schedule
Tyson JonesTHE CHRONICLE
Construction work on the Chemainus Village Square Mall is on schedule, and stores are set to open by the begin-ning of October, said Ian Ster-ling, one of the project owners.
Construction on the 65,000-square-foot centre be-gan in June 2012.
Several businesses are set to move into the new centre, and space is available for several more companies to lease.“Currently we have the 49th
Parallel shopping centre, a Pharmasave, a liquor store, and Island Savings,” said John Kelly, the marketing manager for GeoTility Geothermal heating systems Vancouver Island.“The remainder of the space
— approximately 25,000 square feet — is for leases, so we are going to have local companies in there.”
The Island Savings is not set to open until January of 2014 said Sterling.
The shopping centre is be-ing built as a shopping centre for locals, but Sterling would like it to be more than that.“We have lots of opportuni-ties for bistros, coffee shops, and that kind of thing,” said Sterling. “I’d love to see an art gallery go in to help with tour-ist numbers. We are building this as a shopping centre for
the locals, but I would really like to see an art gallery go in.”
One aspect of the shopping centre that varies greatly from a traditional commer-cial space is the way that it’s heated — with geothermal energy.“Traditionally, commercial spaces are heated with gas, electric heat pumps, boilers,
or a combination,” said Kelly. “The difference with geother-mal is it uses the earth’s en-ergy to draw warmth from the earth for heating, and when air conditioning is needed for the summer, it puts the warmth
from the building back into the earth.”
There are several advan-tages to using geothermal technologies, which is some-thing that has been around for quite a while, but is only now becoming a more affordable option for commercial spaces and private homes.“The advantages to geother-mal are you save money be-cause you’re burning no fossil fuels, so there’s savings there,” said Kelly.“Depending on the uses, the savings can vary, but gener-ally, a user will save between 50 to 70 per cent of traditional heating costs.”Along with savings by stor-
eowners, there is also a great environmental advantage to using geothermal heating.“There is no adverse reaction for the environment,” says Kelly. “Greenhouse gasses go to zero, so there are big ad-vantages environmentally.”
One of the five buildings that comprise the centre is not completed. The date for its completion is uncertain at this time, but residents of Chemainus will be able to en-joy the rest by October.“I hope the local community is pleased with the final prod-uct,” says Sterling. “We have lots of green space, and ame-nity space — the landscaping will really be something to talk about.”

Actor felt a ‘magnet pull’ to latest playLindsay ChungTHE CHRONICLE
Winnipeg-based ac-tor Harry Nelken says
he felt a magnetic pull to A Pretty Girl — A Shayna Maidel, the latest production at the Chemainus The-
atre Festival.Partly, it was the con-
nections he saw with his own family, and partly it was the play’s
messages about family, love and survival.
In A Pretty Girl, writ-ten in 1986 by Barbara Lebow, the conse-
quences of one inno-cent decision change the course of a family’s life forever.
After many years of separation, Pol-ish sisters Lusia and Rayzel “Rose” Weiss have reunited in a col-lision of vastly differ-ent worlds. Amid the chaos of becoming re-acquainted, each girl struggles to honour her past and live for the future, according to a press release from the Chemainus Theatre.
The story begins 20 years after scarlet fever, the Depression, and World War II divided their family between Holocaust-seized Po-land and sheltered New York. Meeting now as grownups in mid-cen-tury Manhattan, the sisters share little in common beyond their fragile bloodline, states the release.
Nelken plays Morde-chai, the girls’ “blustery and imperious father.”
While checking the websites of various theatre companies looking for work, Nelken came across A Pretty Girl.“It had an enormous
impact on me because of personal connec-tions resonating with me,” he said. “My par-ents are survivors of Warsaw, Poland, from the end of the war to coming to Canada in 1948. There are some deep insights I got about my parents that I didn’t get from them.“I think the magnet
pull for me was that it was a wonderful gift and a chance to get to know my parents better from their pre-
Canada days and what it meant for them to lose everything and come here and start over. There are a lot of personal resonances.”
Nelken feels the play is all about survival and an underlying theme of flesh and blood.“It’s all about relation-
ships, abandonment, betrayal, deep hurt and that’s kind of bal-anced with the more positive human emo-tions of re-connecting,” he said. “There are moments in the play that kind of hit me, and I’m sure the audience will feel things too. It’s just a story about fam-ily and the impasses and what’s needed to break those down and become a family again. It’s a long, hard road, but the affirmation of life is what shines through in this play.”
Nelken feels the op-portunity to act in A
Pretty Girl is a gift, and he is eager to share that gift with his family, many of whom will get a chance to see the play. He’d like to say a big hello to his daughters Rachel in Vancouver and Rhea in Winnipeg, as well as his bother Mayer in Richmond and sister Miriam in Victoria.
This is Nelken’s sec-ond production with the Chemainus The-atre Festival. In 2010, he played Al Lewis in The Sunshine Boys. Nelken says that was a fantastic experience, and during his time here, he got his conure parrot, Baby Mischief, from Sooke.“We take her every-
where we go, and she’s here again,” he said.A Pretty Girl runs
from Sept. 13-28. Tick-ets are available at che-mainustheatre.ca or by calling 1-800-565-7738.

The Arts Council of Ladysmith and District hosts a Multi Media Fine Art Exhibition every two years, and this is the year.
The month-long show will run Oct. 4-29 at the Ladysmith Wa-terfront Gallery. Only a maxi-mum of 150 entries will be ad-judicated into this prestigious show, according to a press re-lease from the arts council.“Three professional artists will
judge for content, design, pre-sentation, craftsmanship and the ‘wow factor’ behind closed doors on Sept. 28, guarding who the winners are closely un-til opening night,” the release
states.Artists who create 2D, 3D and
photography works have until Sept. 24 at 4 p.m. to submit their entries to the Arts Council. This can be done by mail or by drop-ping their entry off at the Water-front Gallery.
Anne Jones, vice-president of the Arts Council, will oversee the show this year.“I have been a judge for this
show in the past and have tak-en part in our last Multi Media Show, so I think we will be strong on all accounts,” she said. “We have a strong, com-mitted group of volunteers who
we can count on and who love to lend a helping hand.”
Opening night is Saturday, Oct. 5 at 7 p.m., at which time the winners will be announced. There is $5,000 up for grabs in prize money, with the winner of Best in Show receiving $1,000. “This is one show everyone
should attend — it’s an exciting night and the art will be breath-taking,” said Arts Council presi-dent Kathy Holmes.

Susan QuinnBlack Press
For the first time in the history of the Cops for Cancer Tour de Rock, both Ucluelet and Tofino are represented by riders from their respective RCMP detachments.
Chris Squire, a constable in Ucluelet, started thinking about joining the ride when he spoke with several riders during a stop last year in his community. Ucluelet RCMP Sgt. Jeff Swann, while not a past rider, is a staunch supporter of the Tour de Rock, and he urged Squire to put his name in for a spot on the team.
“Jeff is a big supporter of the Tour de Rock,” Squire says. “He’s got four little kids and they all shave their heads every year. He talked me into it. It’s a good cause.”
Squire has already raised close to $10,000 for the Tour de Rock, double his original goal.
Squire lost his grandmother to cancer, but says he hasn’t had much personal experience with the disease – unlike Tofino Cpl. Andrew Waddell, who along with his wife Vicki and son Justin, have all been diagnosed with cancer in the past few years.
Squire’s junior rider this year is Brett Wasyl-yniuk of Port Alberni, who has been treated for rhabdomyosarcoma, or a cancer of the muscles that attach to bone.
Tofino rider Waddell’s journey with cancer has been a long one. The 27-year RCMP veteran was diagnosed with a brain tumour in 1997; he had surgery to remove what could be removed, and radiation to try and hit the rest. He still lives with the tumour but says it’s stable.
Vicki has had melanoma, or early skin cancer removed, as well as some basal cell carcinomas.
Justin was diagnosed with lymphoblastic leu-kemia when he was only two years old. He went through three years of chemotherapy between ages two and five. Justin is now 15 and loves to surf.
Waddell said the time is right for him to partici-pate in the Tour de Rock. “The reason I’ve come up with is because I can. I have a family that sup-ports me. We benefited from others and now it’s my turn, so families that can’t get out and fund-raise can get out there and benefit.”
Waddell’s junior rider is James Albrecht, also from Port Alberni, and also being treated for rhab-domyosarcoma. Waddell met James at the end of July, and says he’s an amazing young man.
“It’s pretty astounding to see a young person in week 10 of 55-week chemotherapy bounding around the house like he is,” Waddell says.
“There’s guys like James that are living because money from cancer research is keeping them alive.”
Because Squire and Waddell both work in small
detachments and work opposite shifts, they haven’t done much riding together outside of mandatory Tour de Rock rides with the northern team. Squire, a reformed mountain bike rider, does a lot of solo rides on his road bike, but says he prefers to ride with a group.
Waddell is known as Tofino’s “bike cop,” so he is no stranger to cycling.
Waddell cycles 175 kilometres per week between Tofino and Ucluelet for his tour training.
“I go up Radar Hill every time I go by it at the turnoff (to Highway 4),” he says.
Of course, powering up Radar Hill is nothing compared to what children with cancer suffer through, Waddell says.
And that’s why he decided to tackle the Tour de Rock this year.
“It is important to celebrate each day, cheer for every success, and not rest until cancer has been conquered.”

Learning for life in Ladysmith
Nick Bekolaythe chronicle
Helping adults aged 50 and older keep their grey matter nimble as they age is what ElderCollege (EC) programs aim to do.
Operated as a division of Vancouver Island University (VIU), EC is dedicated to offering “quality learning opportuni-ties for older adults,” states its website, through volunteer-run courses offered in “communities serviced by VIU.”
Traditionally, EC programs ran out of Nanaimo, Parksville and Qualicum classrooms, but through the efforts of Ladysmith resident and EC volunteer Lynda McCullough, EC programs will soon be available here in Ladysmith.
Working in conjunction with Dennis Lait, executive director of the Ladysmith Resources Centre Association, Mc-Cullough said she’s arranged classroom space at the Resources Centre for two courses beginning late October.
Courses on offer in Ladysmith include a discussion group titled “How to Save the World” and a non-fiction book club.
The book club will feature monthly
discussions of selected non-fiction books covering topics ranging from history and politics to philosophy and environmental issues, McCullough said.
The book club meets monthly on Tuesdays from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m., begin-ning Oct. 29 and ending April 1.
Students are asked to bring “a sug-gested title” to the first meeting, Mc-Cullough added.
How to Save the World “focuses on the environmental, economic, social and political problems of the world today,” McCullough said, “and the em-phasis will be on finding solutions that encourage us to keep hope and lose complacency — so the theme will not be doom and gloom.”
The discussion group meets monthly on Thursdays from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m., be-ginning Oct. 31 and ending April 3.
Both courses will be taught by Mayta Ryn, a former Ladysmith high school teacher and volunteer EC instructor, said McCullough.
Students require a membership to EC prior to registration. EC member-ships cost $20, include access to VIU’s library and web resources, and offer
members free admission to Milner Gar-dens in Qualicum Beach. They can be purchased over the phone, McCullough said, and once obtained, they can be used to register for courses online.
Courses cost an additional $40 plus GST each, McCullough said, and pro-spective student can sign up over the phone or online, provided they have an EC membership card.
EC courses offer students “an oppor-tunity to get out and meet people,” Mc-Cullough added. “They’re educational, but they’re also social.”As an added benefit, McCullough
explained that EC’s programs are de-signed to “keep our brains stimulated as we age,” which is why the program has branded itself “Learning for Life.”
Purchase EC memberships and reg-ister for classes by calling 1-866-734-6252.
Schedules and fees can be found on-line at viu.ca/eldercollege/.As of Sept. 9, additional courses are
available to Ladysmith students will-ing to commute to Nanaimo, Parksville and Qualicum locations, McCullough added.
VIU-sponsored ElderCollege courses premiere Oct. 29Mayta Ryn, a former Ladysmith high school teacher and current ElderCollege instructor, said she
“is not going to tell you how to save the world” through her dis-cussion course on that very topic. Instead, Ryn explained that stu-dents will seek those answers for themselves and share them with each other. Past iterations of her course have included discussions of Al Gore’s books The Future and An Inconvenient Truth, and in-depth explorations of topics ranging from B.C.’s carbon tax —
“labelled by Denmark as one of the best in the world,” Ryn said
— and a 2010 Enbridge pipeline rupture that saw an estimated 3.2 million litres of oil spill into Michigan State’s Kalamazoo River. Nick Bekolay/chroNicle

Local golfers swing into lead at Mount Brenton tourney
Don BodgerTHE CHRONICLE
Christina Proteau and Laura Barlow enjoyed comfortable margins atop the respective low gross and low net standings in the Mount Brenton Golf Club’s ladies’ amateur tournament
Proteau of Port Alberni was the low gross leader among the 66 players competing in the event with a two-day total of 143, following rounds of 73 and 70.
Karen Kloske of March Meadows fin-ished second at 150. She matched Pro-teau’s 73 in the first round but fell back to 77 on the final day.
Eileen Kelly of Royal Colwood post-ed rounds of 70 and 75 for a 155 total, Shelly Stouffer from Fairwinds shot 81 and 78 for 159 and Colleen Wheatley from Arbutus Ridge rounded out the top five at 162 from individual rounds of 76 and 86.
Barlow of Mount Brenton was miles ahead in the low net results at 133. The
20-handicapper had rounds of 87 and 86.
Young Emily Adams of Mount Brenton was the low net runner-up. She sports an eight handicap and came in at 146 after rounds of 78 and 84.
Georgina Hermans of Cottonwood, also an eight-handicapper, finished at 148 with rounds of 81 and 83. Susan Kubisheski of Mount Brenton also tal-lied a 148 low net when her 23 handi-cap was factored into her scores of 92 and 102.
Laurie Randall of Uplands, who sports a 10 handicap, was fifth in low net with a 149. She shot 85 and 84.
The tournament marks the end of a long tenure for organizer Darleen Michell and husband Rick, who co-ordinates the results.“I’ve been doing it for 12 years,’’ said
Michell. “We turned it into two days 12 years ago.’’
The tournament was an immediate success after the switch.
“We had 112 (players) with a waiting list,’’ said Michell.
It’s been a bit of a struggle to keep the numbers up for a variety of rea-sons. Most tournaments are experi-encing declines.“I think it’s a little bit of everything and including the economy,’’ said Mi-chell.
Nonetheless, Mount Brenton still offered players plenty of incentive to participate.“This year, we had a $6,000 prize ta-ble,’’ said Michell. “We have an amaz-ing sponsorship from local business.’’A $300 donation was made from the
tournament proceeds to the Haven House in Nanaimo, a women’s safety shelter.
Michell went straight to Vernon after the tournament for the Canadian se-nior women’s championship. She did extremely well, making the cut after the second round and then shooting a 79 on the third day to move up to 44th overall in the final standings.

The Ladysmith Food Bank Tournament made a resur-gence this year and is being called one of the most suc-cessful tournaments to date.
The slo-pitch tournament, which took place Aug. 31-Sept. 1 at Aggie Field, raised more than $1,500 and close
to a ton of food for the Ladysmith Food Bank.“This year was probably
the best year yet, and we only had six teams — every-one really came together,” said organizer Jim Delcourt.
“The Kinsmen were a big help, manning the beer gar-den.”
Five local teams compet-ed in this year’s tournament,
along with one team from Nanaimo.
The Shifters won first place, while The Turbo brought in the most food for the food bank, with 188 items.
This year’s tournament, sponsored by the Ladysmith Kinsmen Club, was the first one to be held in three years. Delcourt says he plans to
make it an annual tourna-ment once again.“Thank you to all the teams
for their support and to all the people who came out and watched it,” said Del-court.
Teams or players interest-ed in participating in next year’s tournament can con-tact Delcourt at 250-245-9535.

HUMPHRIES, R. GordonPassed away peacefully at home on September 4, 2013, overlooking his beloved Evening Cove with his daughter Jennifer by his side. Much loved husband of the late Margaret (White), who predeceased him in 2008.
Gordon was born in Calgary, Alberta on April 21, 1921 and was raised there with his brother Jack. After graduation from Western Canada High School, he joined the Royal Canadian Navy. His
landing craft, LCI 115, was one of the first to land on Juno Beach in the D-Day Invasion. He retired at the end of World War II with the rank of Lt Cmdr. While serving in the Navy at HMCS Cornwallis, he met his wife, Margaret. They were married in Toronto on June 14, 1945 and moved to Edmonton after they were both discharged from the service.
In 1949, Gordon graduated from the University of Alberta with a B.Sc in Petroleum Engineering. He and Margaret then settled in Calgary, where they raised their four daughters. Gordon was a founding member of the oil and gas community and never lost his passion for this industry. He was well-respected for his honesty and professional standards. His handshake was his word.
In 1986, Gordon and Margaret retired to their dream home in Ladysmith, BC, where they spent many happy years.
An excellent athlete, Gordon was an avid skier and golfer and fan of the Calgary Stampeders and Calgary Flames. He was a longtime member of Willow Park Golf Club in Calgary and Mt Brenton Golf Club in Chemainus, BC.
Gordon was loved by his daughters, Susan Humphries (Richard Domin), Shelagh Dann (Jerry Skinner), Catherine Humphries, and Jennifer McCormick. He is also survived by his nephew, John Humphries, and his nieces Adele Meyers and Mary Murphy. His only brother, Jack, predeceased him in 1953.
“Poppa” will be deeply missed by his six grandchildren and six great-grandchildren.
A celebration of Gordon’s life will be held in Chemainus United Church, 9814 Willow Street, Chemainus, BC at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday, September 28th. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation, Chemainus United Church or a charity of your choice.

The Cowichan Communities Health Network seeks to engage a contractor or contractors to develop a community profile on the determinants of health for the Cowichan Communities.
The purpose of this profile of each of the determinants of health is to provide a tool for use by citizens, agencies and communities to facilitate improvements in health and wellbeing in the Cowichan region.
The profile will:a. Clearly illustrate the current status, (baseline), of Cowichan Communities both regionally and sub-regionally and where possible by individual communities through narration, mapping, community engagement, charts and graphs.b. Provide comparisons to Vancouver Island and Provincial norms.c. Identify successes, challenges and potential responses.d. Work with the CCHN to identify community resources with the potential to respond. e. Provide an executive summary
It is the intention of the CCHN to have the Community Profile completed in phases. The first phase will be a completion of a profile of the Economic Status of the Cowichan Communities.
The Contractor will engage with the CCHN Asset Mapping Committee and Chairs as needed during the development of the profile.
The first phase draft profile will be widely circulated for feedback prior to contracting for subsequent phases.
For more information on the Cowichan Communities Health Network please go to our website www.cchn.ca or contact Cindy Lise at [email protected] . Applications will be accepted up to 12:00 noon September 30th, 2013.
