Development embraces beloved art gallery; building central to plan Pacific Landing in Colwood will retain Coast Collective in former Pendray home Rick Stiebel News Gazette staff

Yellow buzzbomb Victoria Devils ’01 pitcher Kylie Katz lets fly with a pitch during the Cup division semifinal at the Canadian Under-14 Girls Fastpitch Jamboree at View Royal’s Centennial Park. The Devils lost this game 7-0 to Surrey on Sunday and went on to earn the bronze medal. The other host team, the Devils ’02, took the bronze in the Plate division. See story page A21.

The Coast Collective will be a part of the new development slated for the Havenwood property on Heatherbell Road, as long as they can hang in during the disruption of construction. The iconic 12-acre property in Colwood is moving toward construction that will include 33 high-end condominiums in a waterfront village setting. The main residence on the property has been home to the Coast Collective since 2008, with artists’ studios, an art gallery, gift shop and classes filling the space that was formerly the summer home for Bapco Paint founder William J. Pendray and his family. Cindy Moyer, executive director for the non-profit Society for Arts on the South Island and Coast Collective, said the developers have indicated they would welcome Coast Collective to remain in the old mansion. “We always knew more people and activity were needed to create more of a village atmosphere, in which we see the arts playing a role,” she said. The difficulty, Moyer noted, is whether Coast Collective will be able to survive during construction, which can sometimes be wrought

“The challenge for us as a non-profit is sustainability during the construction phase … The developer has suggested looking for a temporary home during that time.” – Cindy Moyer, executive director, Coast Collective with unpredictable delays. “The challenge for us as a nonprofit is sustainability during the construction phase,” Moyer said. “The developer has suggested looking for a temporary home during that time.” While the society’s board is exploring that option for the gift shop and gallery, Moyer said a lot of artists depend on access to the workshops and work space. “We hope to find a temporary fit and then return to this beautiful village by the sea,” she added. Work has already begun restoring a century old cottage near the main house, which will serve as a discovery centre for the project. “We are excited to see things moving ahead,” Moyer said. “It’s nice to see the cottage getting refreshed.”

Drug raid leads to cache of bikes at Langford home

West Shore RCMP spokesman Const. Alex Berube stands amongst stolen property seized last week, which incuded about 40 bicycles in whole or in part. Bicycles are often dismantled and their parts swapped to disguise their identity, he said.

While many bikes are in pieces, some have been returned to their owners Katherine Engqvist News Gazette staff

A drug investigation has led West Shore RCMP to a cache of 40 stolen bicycles. With the wheels set in motion, RCMP carried out a search warrant for a home in the 2800-block of Leigh Road in Langford last Wednesday evening (Aug. 5). The search warrant was executed by members of the Street Crime Unit and general duty officers after a drug investigation was launched. Police discovered a stash of 40 stolen bicycles some of which were dismantled, tools and a small amount of methamphetamine. A 23-year-old Langford man was arrested without incident. A 23-year-old Langford woman attempted to flee on foot but was apprehended by police. The suspects were said to be well known to police and have been deemed prolific offenders. They are facing a number of charges, ranging from drug possession to possession of property obtained by crime. Of the 40 stolen bicycles recovered, police have returned a few to their owners, who were able to provide serial numbers. West Shore RCMP spokesman Const. Alex Berube said the goal is to see even more given back. “We will do whatever it takes to get these bikes returned,” he said. Berube added that unclaimed bikes usually go to Langford Fire Rescue to be auctioned off, but this case was a little different. Sometimes thieves swap parts on stolen bikes to disguise them, he said, which could be why a number of the bikes were dismantled. With bike theft a growing concern on the West Shore, he encouraged all cyclists to use proper locks and to record their serial numbers. katie@goldstreamgazette.com

A midnight search for a lost hiker had a happy ending. A 22-year-old man was hiking alone on Mount Finlayson when he found himself off the beaten trails and lost, just before midnight on July 29. He had spotted a cougar and attempted to get away from the animal, as it appeared to be stalking him. Fearing for his safety, he was able to call for help. Two West Shore RCMP officers took up the search on foot and scaled the mountain while maintaining cellphone contact with the lost hiker. They found the man, uninjured and in good condition, after a three-hour search. katie@goldstreamgazette.com

Highlands targeted for broom removal

TLC aims to stop invasive species from spreading Katherine Engqvist News Gazette staff

This summer, volunteers and staff members from The Land Conservancy (TLC) have taken to traversing Highlands with pruners in hand. Their aim: stripping the invasive species Scotch broom from the rocky soils. But this is no overnight job, warns Torrey Archer, TLC’s covenant co-ordinator. She said Scotch broom seeds can lie dormant in the soil for up to 80 years, which is why constant action is required. This seemingly never-ending process has frustrated a number of people, some of whom have adopted a why-bother attitude, Archer said. “It had gotten to a point where something needed to be done,” she said. “It’s a really hard problem to get rid of.” Land Conservancy staff noticed an increase in invasive species, including Scotch broom, thistle and daphne/spurge laurel, in covenanted areas in the Highlands and instead of continuing to simply monitor the situation, they decided to take action. Working the with District of Highlands and with advise from Broombusters, TLC developed a plan to eliminate Scotch broom from covenanted regions over the next few years. Broombusters is a grassroots

Private lands in Highlands are next on the list for broom removal. organization that was established in 2006 whose purpose is to limit the spread and prevent new infestations of broom. The organization helps communities and individuals with education and coordinating removal. Archer is hopeful, noting the success of Broombusters up Island, saying that their area is

now roughly 90 per cent broom free. “We wanted to follow suit.” “Where we can help out, we help everyone.” She added sometimes things like limited municipal budgets can effect broom removal programs. This four-phase program began with the assessment of covenanted areas, which took inven-

tory of both endangered and invasive species in July. Phase two, or the removal phase, is what the project is working on now by targeting areas with low ratios of invasive to native plants. Areas with low ratios are targeted first because they are the most vulnerable. By removing seedlings and small plants from those areas,

the native vegetation has a better chance of filling in the voids left and remains free from invaders. “It can kind of seem counterintuitive,” Archer said, but you do less damage to the area that way. “This is more of our soft start.” She said the program would spend the rainy months evaluating (phase three), then have another assessment phase in the spring followed immediately by a pull. Phase four is repeating the process in areas with higher ratios of invasive species. She said the main focus this year was getting a comprehensive assessment done, which will allow the program to track its progress. Back in April, the Highlands District Community Association brought residents together for an organized broom cut, with the intent of making it an annual spring event. Highlands also became of a member of Broombusters. Archer encourages members of the public to get involved with upcoming broom cuttings scheduled for the rest of August and in the spring.

Moyer said she met with the developer at the end of July and was told they hope to have the development application pass final reading by Colwood council by the end of September. Anna Difiori, marketing manager for the developer, Pacific Landing, said there has been significant movement toward a new concept that allows for inclusion of businesses that bring value to a community into the development planning stage. “This ties in with the relationship we have nurtured with Coast Collective,” she added. “It’s also part of our future plans to

collaborate with the arts throughout the village.” Text amendments to the application were presented to Colwood’s planning and zoning committee on June 16 and went to council for consideration on July 13. Coun. Gordie Logan, who chair’s Colwood’s planning and land use committee, said council gave staff direction for the amendments and he expects the amending bylaw will be on the agenda for the Aug. 24 council meeting. “The developer has been a great supporter of the Coast Collective since the start,” he said. “We hope that relationship continues.” news@goldstreamgazette.com

TV and Vision

Eye care experts generally agree: watching television will not harm your eyes or vision if the TV room is lit properly and if you follow a few viewing tips. In fact, there is usually less strain involved in TV viewing than in doing close work such as sewing or reading. Watching TV for long stretches of time can leave your eyes fatigued and now that the monsoons have arrived, most of us are spending more time inside. Here are a few hints to help make TV viewing more comfortable. TV viewing tips: - Make sure your television set is properly installed and the antenna properly adjusted. - Place the set to avoid glare reflections from lamps, windows and other bright sources. - Adjust brightness and contrast controls to individual and/or viewer’s taste and comfort. - Have the set at approximately eye level. Avoid having to look up or down at the picture. - Avoid staring at the screen for lengthy periods Briefly look away from the picture, around the room or out the window. - Wear lenses prescribed for vision correction, if advised to do so by your eye care practitioner. - View from a distance of at least five times the width of the television screen. Some viewers, especially those over 50 years old, may find relief with special glasses for television viewing. Consult with your Optometrist if you find general vision discomfort or eye strain while watching TV.

OUR VIEW

Plenty of time to meet candidates Now that the election writ has been dropped and Prime Minister Stephen Harper has officially acknowledged the start of the 2015 federal election campaign, the magnifying glass can be raised above the West Shore ridings of Cowichan-Malahat-Langford and EsquimaltSaanich-Sooke. Those representing opposition parties have anxiously awaited the signal to go full tilt on their respective campaigns, without worrying about staying within Elections Canada rules. The New Democrats have incumbent Randall Garrison – for now the West Shore’s lone MP – running in the rejigged Esquimalt-Juan de Fuca riding. Joining him so far are ex-Colwood councillor Shari Lukens (Conservative), lawyer David Merner (Liberal), photographer Frances Litman (Green) and Josh Steffler (Libertarian). Candidates in the other realigned riding, the northern portion of which is part of the old Nanaimo-Cowichan riding held since 2004 by NDP MP Jean Crowder, have also been busy before and since Harper’s announcement. With Crowder retiring this year, and the reconfiguration bringing in the bustling city of Langford and the District of Highland in our area, the riding is up for grabs. Recognizing the meaty electoral value of Langford, the Liberals (entertainer Maria Manna) and Greens (business owner Fran Hunt-Jinnouchi) named city residents their candidates. The NDP faithful rewarded party loyalty by electing Crowder’s longtime assistant, Duncan resident Alistair MacGregor. Curiously, the Conservatives have yet to choose a candidate, although several hopefuls have been making the rounds for months. Whether the party will declare a candidate or allow a more democratic process to happen is anyone’s guess, including the potential candidates we’ve spoken to. The Conservatives lost their only south Island MP when former cabinet minister Gary Lunn was defeated by Green Party leader Elizabeth May, and are no doubt keen to regain a bit of a foothold here. With candidates given an unprecedented two-plus months to campaign, their biggest challenge may be holding voter’s attention in the long days leading up to the Oct. 19 election. What do you think?

Liberal leader Justin Trudeau wants to cancel capital cost allowances for liquefied natural gas investment that have been granted by B.C. and Ottawa, which could be a dealbreaker for LNG. B.C. NDP leader John Horgan formalized his opposition to the TransMountain expansion last week, in a letter filed with the National Energy Board. But we’re expected to believe that Mulcair has a different position, for now. Harper was forced to admit that his long effort to persuade U.S. President Barack Obama to approve the Keystone XL pipeline has failed, and the project will have to wait until Obama leaves office next year. The debate also confirmed positions on Canada’s modest role in bombing Islamic State terrorist positions in Iraq and Syria. The Conservatives are for it, and the Liberals, NDP and Greens are against it. Trudeau set the stage for the contest in Quebec, which B.C. voters can only watch from afar to see if it once again decides the shape of their federal government. Trudeau pushed Mulcair on his cynical bid to court the separatist voters who suddenly swung to Jack Layton’s NDP in 2011. Like petroleum prices, it’s beyond our control.

Two hundred metres from a brand new multi-million dollar, mixeduse residential/commercial/ professional development? And 150 meters from residential developments? What part of “Find a site in an appropriate industrial location” is still completely escaping the committees? The public input process will be meaningful unless a knowledgeable correlation is provided between any proposed site and what is

One reader suggests placing a treatment plant on the ocean, which would be different than running an outfall pipe out a kilometre into the ocean. Don Denton/ Black Press

likely to be built on it. I’ve been a vocal defender of doing this right for a long time now, but really, I’m beginning to wonder if all those people castigating the process and questioning the intelligence of everyone involved don’t have a point. Andy House View Royal

Another alternative for treatment plant site Re: Leave no sewage stone unturned (Our View, July 31) Place the sewage treatment facility or facilities on the ocean. Several communities

around the world have sewage treatment plants located on vessels offshore. I only heard this option mentioned once in this debate. Placing the plant off-shore requires no land, no local landfill, no truck traffic in neighbourhoods, no massive disruptions to build a pipeline to the landfill. It utilizes inexpensive barging away of residue to a landfill such as the open pit mine on Texada Island, where further treatment or storage could take place. Nimbys rejoice, there is a solution.

funding. (Langford voters did re-elect Mr. Young, who has woken up and is pushing for more police, but neighbouring fiefdoms are lagging.) In the meantime, voters can ask officials what their value priorities are – forcing people to pay for glitz and cutesyness or protecting them. Every municipality should be doing its part, as the offenders live in various municipalities and can be caught in others as they travel around. Only police in their face repeatedly will reform deliberately dangerous drivers. Keith Sketchley Saanich

Councillor’s actions do little to encourage young officials Re: Coun. Roger Wade It would appear that some people believe they are above reproach. When a person sets himself up as a role model, such as being a part of the sports community and a leader, or as a municipal councillor, that person is open to public scrutiny. If a person is watching a sports event and spontaneously comes out with a rude, negative comment at that event, in some places that might be acceptable. However, when an adult takes the time to set up a video, and post a message which is very personal on Facebook, that is not acceptable. It could be perceived as premeditated, uncontrolled rage. An apology for this type of cruelty does not stop the victim from re-playing the whole happening over and over again. How many young people have given up on learning to officiate due to the continual badgering? There is a shortage of officials already in some sports and now it could get even worse with the fear

of ending up on Facebook. Can any of this be undone? No, but, we could start by showing mutual respect and practise sportsmanship. The fact that some sports associations do not allow parents to watch their children play should tell us something. I have always been of the opinion that activities, regardless of whether they are sports, card games, horseback riding, etc., that people take part in them to learn, to communicate, to socialize and to have fun. Positive comments go a long way in encouraging people to want to be a part of a community. Here’s a true story to consider: Greg, a seven year old hockey player, is leaving the arena with his mom. Mr. Creston is arriving with his son. Mr. Creston asks, “How did your game go Greg?” He answers, “Oh, really good ‘cause my dad wasn’t there.” (Greg’s dad had been banned from the arena for one year.) Sharon Sinclair Colwood

West Shore rowers continue busy summer Western Canada Summer Games underway in northern Alberta Don Descoteau News Gazette staff

There hasn’t been much rest for Emma Gribbon in between regattas. The Langford rower, who finished up the 133rd Royal Henley Regatta in St. Catharine’s on Friday with her Vic City Rowing Club teammates, flew west for a handful of days then headed back to Alberta, where she’s one of a handful of West Shore rowers competing this weekend in the Western Canada Summer Games outside Fort MacMurray, Alta. There’ve been plenty of medals along the way for this Claremont secondary student, whose season has included winning a mittful of under-17 division gold in quads and eights at such competitions as the Brentwood and Shawnigan regattas and the B.C. championships, and most recently, a bronze at the Henley. Rowing in the No. 3 seat in the women’s quad event, Gribbon and company finished just over four seconds behind the secondplace boat from Nanaimo and about 10 behind the winners from St. Catharine’s. Teamed with Emma Reinsch, Gribbon finished fourth in the U17 women’s doubles final after winning their heat and semifinal races. In the women’s eights, her Vic City crew fell just short of making the semifinals. Before leaving for her eastern swing, Gribbon, who begins Grade 11 at Claremont secondary in September, reflected on her season to date. “It’s going really good; I think my season’s been going really well,” she said. “I’ve improved a lot, but it’s definitely a team effort.” The goal heading into the Henleys was to make finals, which her boats did twice. “For Westerns, we’re all pretty confident in ourselves and we’re anxious to see what we can do.” Also rowing at Westerns from

Rower Emma Gribbon from Langford helps haul a boat out of the water at Shawnigan Lake during the annual school regatta earlier this year. The teen athlete is among four West Shore rowers competing in the Western Canada Summer Games this week near Fort MacMurray, Alta.

“For Westerns, we’re all pretty confident in ourselves and we’re anxious to see what we can do.” – Rower Emma Gribbon on this week’s competition the West Shore will be Belmont grad Miles Krakowec-Tickner, and the Keane brothers from Colwood, Patrick and Liam, who will row up an age category at this event. Patrick Keane, who will row for the UVic Vikes this upcoming season, competed at the World Under-23 Rowing Championships in Bulgaria in late July.

Liam, competing at the Junior Worlds (19-under) just last week in Rio de Janeiro, won the ‘C’ final in the men’s four on Friday. As for Gribbon, she wasn’t sure which boats she’d be in for the Westerns, but she was nonetheless anticipating the event. “I think it’s exciting to get to represent the province on a bigger scale than club,” she said, noting that she already knows many of the mainland rowers from other regattas. “We’re a pretty tight-knit group.” The rowing events run Friday (Aug. 14) through Sunday.

It’s on to WLA final for Sr. Shamrocks A 13-4 win over the Burrards in Maple Ridge on Sunday gave the Victoria Shamrocks a four-game sweep of their Western Lacrosse Association semifinal. The Shamrocks took a stranglehold on the series Saturday at The Q Centre with a 13-5 victory. Victoria plays the winner of the New Westminster/Langley series, led 3-0 by New West entering Monday’s game in Langley (after Gazette deadline). Game 1 of the final will be in Colwood.

Host teams a pleasant surprise at national fastball event Devils battle other B.C. teams for top spots in View Royal Don Descoteau News Gazette staff

Entering the Canadian Under14 Girls Fastpitch Jamboree, the coaches of the host Victoria Devils ‘01 and ‘02 teams knew they’d each be in tough to win a medal. But when Sunday afternoon rolled around at Centennial Park in View Royal, players from both teams were proudly carrying around their bronze medals. “We’re all ecstatic about it, because medalling, period, was an outside chance,” said Devils ‘01 head coach and tournament chair Paddy Strandlund, after his team dropped an 11-7 decision to the Delta Heat in the loser’s bracket final of the Cup division. “We both didn’t finish in the medals in the provincials, so we were on the lower side of the B.C. teams in both divisions.” In a Cup final that was a repeat matchup and result of the B.C. final, Surrey Storm ‘01 downed Delta 2-1 in nine innings. Having chipped away and built a 6-3 lead by the fifth inning against the Heat, the Devils ‘01 looked ready to vault themselves into the final and a

On the other side of the country, the ‘97 Devils came close to earning themselves a medal, but lost their final game Sunday, 4-3 in an extra inning to eventual Bowl division champion Manitoba Smitty’s ‘98. The Devils, who led 2-1 heading into the bottom of the seventh, gave up the tying run in that inning. Victoria made it 3-2 in the top half of the eighth, but Smitty’s rallied for two in the bottom half to win. Victoria went 3-1 in round robin action, their only loss a 4-3 decision against Brantford, Ont. The Devils lost their playoff opener 3-0 to the same team, then rebounded to beat Prince Albert, Sask. 7-0 in five innings. Pitcher Leah Johnson threw a four-hit shutout and Emma Bowman went two-for-three with three runs batted in to lead the Devils’ attack. editor@goldstreamgazette.com

rematch with Surrey, who had shut them out 7-0 in the morning winner’s bracket final. But Delta, eager to avenge the 10-3 loss handed them by Victoria in the playoff opener, scored four runs in the bottom of the fifth to go ahead 7-6. The Devils got one back to tie it in the top of the sixth when Jessica Strandlund reached on an error and Kylie Katz and Hallie Holland pounded back-to-back singles. The Heat stayed hot in their half of the inning, opening with six straight singles and scoring four more times to take an 11-7 lead that held up. “We had the chance, but anything can happen in an at bat. Somebody gets on base, a ball drops in,” Strandlund said. Izzy Snow and Katz shared pitching duties for the Devils,

while starter Meghan Hendrickson gave way to Janaya Basi in the top of the fifth for the Heat. The ‘01 Devils finished third in the Cup round robin standings with a 5-1 record, earning themselves two losses in the playoff draw. The lone blemish on their record was a 2-1 loss Friday to the Waterloo Ghosts, the topranked team from Ontario at the tournament. Despite seeing his team lose a chance at at least a silver medal, Strandlund said, “All of our coaches are happy. It’s the best (the girls have) played ever. They rose for the Canadians, had an excellent week and we’re incredibly pleased with them.”

Victoria Devils ’01 first baseman Taylor Chenard holds the ball in her glove and awaits a call, as Surrey’s Lexi Vaughan dives in vain back into the bag. The action came during the Cup winner’s bracket final Sunday at the Canadian Under-14 Girls Fastpitch Jamboree at View Royal’s Centennial Park. Devils left fielder Zoe Lott caught a fly ball and doubled up the runner at first. The host team lost this game 7-0 to the ’01 Storm, but was still guaranteed a bronze medal.

A Service of Holy Communion and Healing Prayers

After a shaky round robin at Hyacinth Park saw them squeak into the Plate division playoffs with a 1-5 record, the Devils ‘02 team reeled off two straight wins, 5-2 over Ontario Six Nations and 8-7 over Surrey Storm ‘02, to reach the loser’s bracket final. Eventual champion Tri-City Titans eliminated the Devils with a 9-2 loss at Centennial Park before beating White Rock Renegades 10-5 in the Plate final Sunday. Strandlund was impressed with how the ‘02 Devils rallied. “They came back, got their first win under their belt in the playoffs and they had a tough one against the eventual champion, but they played hard,” he said. “After a long week like this, it’s tough to finish it off strong. These guys are good.” editor@goldstreamgazette.com

INFORMATION

Anna Semenowich (nee Cancade) December 8, 1922 August 1, 2015 It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved, mother, grand-mother, great-grandmother, sister, aunt and friend. Anna is predeceased by â€œthe love of her lifeâ€? her husband, Jack Clifford â€œSammyâ€?, brothers Henry, Morris and sister Jean. She is survived by her children Sharon (Harold) and Lorne (Sharon), grandchildren Shaun (Dawn), Dennis (Christina), Kate (Peter), Kevin (Dannielle) and 7 great-grandchildren. She will be lovingly remembered by her brothers Paul, Cecile and Robert â€œBobbyâ€? (Rosaline), nieces, nephews, extended family and friends. â€œAunty Anneâ€? will be greatly missed by Corinna (Todd) and girls. We will remember Anna as someone who lived her life to the fullest and who was fiercely independent and enjoyed every moment with her family and friends. Please join us in a Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, August 15, 2015 at 1 pm at Sands Funeral Chapel-Colwood, 317 Goldstream Avenue. Memorial donations in lieu of flowers can be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation.

Alexander Grant Brydges

April 30, 1942-August 1, 2015 It is with great sadness we announce that Al â€œSandyâ€? Brydges passed away peacefully on Saturday August 1st at the Royal Jubilee Hospital in Victoria, BC. Al was born in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario on April 30th, 1942 to the late Grant and Agnes (Baillie) Brydges of Manitoulin Island. A retired Warrant Officer with the Royal Canadian Air Force, Al was stationed throughout Canada and in Lahr, Germany. In addition to proudly serving his country, he also enjoyed serving his countrymen as a bartender at various Warrant Officersâ€™ and Sergeantsâ€™ Messes. After retirement, he went on to work with the Reserves as an instructor and then as a Commissionaire at 17 Wing, CFB Winnipeg. In 2009 Al settled in Victoria, BC, enjoying varied Commissionaire postings, including his last position as Evidence Custodian at National Investigative Services, CFB Esquimalt in 2015. He will be dearly missed by his children; Jeffrey (Busan, Korea), Jason (Vancouver), Jennifer Kingston (Ryan) and his beloved Granddaughter, Eeva (Victoria). Lovingly remembered by sisters Eloise Odber (Joe), Colleen Wasyliniuk (Eddy), Sharon McNaught (Robert) of Sault Ste. Marie and Brenda of British Columbia. He was predeceased by siblings Doris Carter (Fred), Patricia Sharpe (Norm), Robert (Bob), Bruce, Ruby Mae and Gail Lidstone (Gary) of Sault Ste. Marie. Of notable mention, his previous marriage to Val Brydges, nee Forssi, gave Al many years of happiness and he loved her and her family dearly. His vocations and love of his family inspired Al to pen many poems that will live on in our hearts. His enthusiasm for family, friends and good food remain an inspiration to the lives he has touched. A celebration of life, open to all, will be held on Saturday August 15th at the Royal Canadian Legion Prince Edward Branch in Langford, BC. 761 Station Avenue. Remembrance ceremony from 12-1 pm. and drop-in reception from 1-4 pm. In lieu of flowers donations on Alâ€™s memory may be made to the Canadian Cancer Society. Sands
