BEACHFEST
Attendance tops 100,000 Music, fireworks help close a successful five-week festival JOHN HARDING
editor@pqbnews.com
Was it the great weather? Or the great sculptures? Or the work of dozens of dedicated volunteers? Whatever the reason — likely a combination of all of the above — the 100,000-visitor plateau was reached this year at the Quality Foods Canadian Open Sand Sculpting Competition and Exhibition, a mark that was elusive in recent years. It’s an attendance record for the festival, which closed with the demolition of the sculptures on Monday. The 2015 event featuring the Heroes and Villains theme beat previous gate attendance records — organizers say 104,427 visitors were “carefully counted” over the five-week period. “The warm, sunny weather, quality of sculpting featuring a theme with mass appeal and the state of the economy all lead to such tremendous results”, said Cheryl Dill, president of the Parksville Beach Festival Society. “The vast amount of positive comments collected from local residents and visitors at the gate and through social media surpass previous years’ feedback.” Organizers said the free concert series each weekend also likely contributed to the spike in numbers. The grand finale Saturday featuring two Vancouver Island groups, Johnny Inappropriate and The Timebenders, along with the Quality Foods fireworks, which drew thousands of residents and visitors on closing weekend. Visitors also had the opportunity to select their favourite sculptures. Close to 100,000 votes were recorded. The artists behind the two most popular sculptures will be presented with The People’s Choice awards. “These are highly coveted awards amongst the master sculptors in our competition,” said event manager Trish Smith, “and it seems that voters agreed with the judging results as well.” The top prize in the People’s Choice Awards went to “My Better Half,” featuring Batman and The Joker, by Marielle Heesels of the Netherlands and David Ducharme of Winlaw, B.C. Second place in the People’s Choice Awards was “Relativity,” featuring Albert Einstein, by Abe Waterman, of P.E.I. See SOCIETY GIVES BACK, page A23

Nothing new to report in Qualicum lockout
Qualicum Beach Chief Administrative Officer Daniel Sailland reported Monday morning that there are no new developments in the town’s labour dispute which saw council lock out employees on July 31. “We still hope to find some way of engaging, the question is how,” he told The NEWS. Both sides say the main sticking point in the stalled negotiations is wages with union members holding out for two per cent annual increases. — NEWS Staff

There’s a new resident at VIU’s Deep Bay Marine Field Station. She can be a little shy, but if you catch her on the right day she’s known to be pretty entertaining. Three weeks ago, the station happily welcomed a female giant Pacific octopus. “The octopus has adapted well and started feeding within a few days of being relocated,” station manager Brian Kingzett told The NEWS Friday. “We are feeding it live crab which is important to keep it engaged with hunting behaviour. Last week we started giving it puzzles to solve by putting a crab inside a jar that the octopus then had to figure out how to open which it has.” Kingzett said the eight-armed marine critter was collected by Union Bay Diving from one of
the anchors that holds down the station’s intake pipelines. She’s currently being housed in a 22,700 litre tank donated by Pacific Shores Resort earlier this year located in the station’s downstairs classroom as part of their “coolest classroom project.” According to National Geographic, the giant Pacific octopus grows bigger and lives longer than any other octopus species. The largest ever recorded was nine meters long and weighed more than 600 pounds. Kingzett said they’ll release this one back into the ocean before it outgrows its living quarters. “We will keep the octopus for four to six months,” he said. “When we determine that it is getting too large for the tank we will let it go.” Kingzett said the station staff is following strict animal care guidelines for octopus care as set out by the American Association of Zoos and Aquariums and the Canadian Council on Animal Care. The VIU Deep Bay Marine Field Station is open daily from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. For more information contact 250-740-6611. UP

Pa r k s v i l l e - Q u a l i c u m Beach MLA Michelle Stilwell has returned home after a successful trip to Toronto for the 2015 Parapan Am Games. Stilwell, who competed in both the 100 and 800 metre events, was able to bring home a gold medal in the 100-metre event and set a Parapan Am Games record with her time of 2.22.90 in the 800-metre event (T52) as well. “What an experience,” Stilwell said back in office. “It was such a wonderful event put on in Toronto. The folks there did a fantastic job with everything that was going on, the entire event was very well organized and everyone had such a great time being there. Being able to race in front of your country, having the results that Canada had and setting attendance records for the Parapan Am Games was just an amazing thing to be a part of.” Stilwell finished off her first event, the 100-metre
race, with a time of 19.58 seconds, which was just under a second off of the world record time she set back in 2012. The event looked like it was going to take place in the rain but moments before athletes were set to take the track; the rain stopped and held off for the event. “We weren’t sure what would happen with that one,” Stilwell said. “All the athletes use an adhesive which helps give us a bit of extra push in the rain. So the rain stopped just after we decided to put it on and it made it tough on those first couple of pushes out of the gate. It was still a good race though and I’m very happy I was able to bring home a gold medal in front of my country.” In the 800-metre event, Stilwell finished in eigth place but managed to set a Parapan Am Games record for her time of 2.22.90, which is the top time for a T52 competitor in Parapan Am Games history. “I felt it was a great race,” Stilwell said. “It was exactly what I anticipated. I ran in the category above, so the girls I was racing against had more upper body function that I do so I knew that I had no hope of finishing on the podium but I was able to have a great race regardless.

I was only a little ways off of getting in to the draft with the rest of the pack, so it was a very good race for me.” Stilwell was the only T52, a competitor with limited upper body function, racing against T53 athletes, who have full function of their upper body. Now that the Parapan Am Games have finished and with Rio 2016 one year away, Stilwell said

42 overdose deaths on the IsLand sInce 2013
No reports or seizures of fentanyl here There were 54 fentanyl-related deaths in B.C. from January to May alone CandaCe Wu news@pqbnews.com
Rumours of a fentanyl overdose were sparked after a 14-year-old boy was rushed to Nanaimo hospital at 12:35 a.m. Thursday from Parksville. While The NEWS received phone calls alleging fentanyl may have been ingested, Oceanside RCMP Cpl. Jesse Foreman said there was nothing to suggest fentanyl was involved in the incident. Foreman said upon arrival police found the boy vomiting in an ambulance at Parksville Community Park. “He relayed to paramedics he was drinking with friends,” Foreman told The NEWS. “There was no mention of any kind of drug… that could be friends covering up for friends… but without a toxicology report, if he didn’t say anything about it, we wouldn’t know.” As of Thursday afternoon, Foreman said the boy was in stable condition. Foreman said despite a spike in media attention fentanyl has garnered throughout the
country, it doesn’t seem to be a problem in Parksville Qualicum Beach. “That’s not to say for a second it doesn’t exist,” he said. “But we’ve had no reports or seizures.” According to Island Health medical health officer Dr. Paul Hasselback, since 2013 there have been 141 drug overdose deaths on Vancouver Island — 42 of those have been related to fentanyl. Hasselback said the drug can take on many forms and can be inhaled, ingested or injected. “Nowadays we can assume any product available on the street might contain fentanyl and should be treated as such,” he said. “Six to 12 months ago, people purchasing drugs on the street were surprised fentanyl was being added. Now some people may be purchasing (drugs) because fentanyl is being added… There’s been a change and it’s all been fairly recent.” However, Hasselback noted “the street market is no different than any other market — it’s based on supply and demand.” Fentanyl is a legal drug in Canada. “It is a narcotic, it is a controlled substance,” said Hasselback. “It’s been around for a long time… What we have
found in the last couple of years is it’s been making its way into the street-level distributed drug market and it doesn’t appear to be medically-prescribed fentanyl. It’s being produced somewhere else but it’s still fentanyl, it has the same effects, benefits and problems.” Medically, fentanyl is often used by cancer patients to control pain as it’s a longer-acting narcotic, a characteristic that Hasselback said makes the drug appealing to some users who may be seeking a long-lasting high. “The other thing is it takes a much smaller volume of fenBLacK Press Photo tanyl compared to other drugs,” Fentanyl pills are shown in this undated file photo. he said. “For example, if you’re taking one pill, or say one gram, you only should be taking 0.1 rather than assuming a product had 54 fentanyl-related fatalyou’ve purchased will give you ities in the five-month period gram of fentanyl.” He said if you don’t adjust the same responses as in the from January to May of this year. your dosage to the potency past,” advised Hasselback.

Trillium Lodge welcomes hospice Parksville facility will soon be able to offer five new private hospice rooms
Room enhancements are well underway for Hospice at Trillium Lodge. A new five-bed community hospice space will provide care and support to individuals nearing the end of their lives and their loved ones. “The addition of these new beds reflects government’s commitment to double the number of hospice spaces in communities across the province by 2020,” said Health Minister Terry Lake. “More importantly, it will provide compassionate care close to home for families and their loved ones.” Located in the Eastwood East wing at Trillium Lodge residential care facility in Parksville, the space will provide patients and their families with clinical supports and care through to the end of life. The unit will include a private entrance and patio, offering patients and their families their own room and private bathroom. A dedicated and specially trained care team of nurses and personal care workers from Island Health will provide clinical care, along with a team of Oceanside Hospice Society staff and volunteers. “Creating more hospice beds in Oceanside has been a priority and it fills my heart to know individual patients and their families will now receive more support through the difficult days and months at the end of life,” said Parksville-Qualicum MLA Michelle Stilwell. “I’m grateful for all the partnerships that came together for the benefit of our community as a whole.”
The service model for the hospice space is a joint effort of the local Hospice Bed Steering Committee. The group includes representatives from Island Health, Oceanside Hospice Society, the Federation of Oceanside Residents’ Associations, the Oceanside Division of Family Practice, the Intertribal Health Authority and the Patient Voices Network. “Our patients at end of life have specific needs, and this care model allows us to care for them and their families in an empathetic, respectful way,” said Lois Cosgrave, Island Health’s director of End of Life Care. “We appreciate the support and the hard work of the committee members.” Ian Mackay, chair of Oceanside Hospice Society, welcomes their staff and volunteers in the development and provision of service at the new hospice unit. “Our hospice society has, over the past 25 years, offered an outreach model of psychosocial supports to the community, in tandem with the clinical team,” said McKay. “Hospice at Trillium Lodge will be one more option in the continuum of care. For more information about how to get involved with the new hospice at Trillium Lodge or for information on services offered through Oceanside Hospice Society, visit the society website at www. oceansidehospice.com.” Maggie Schulz, who represents the Patient Voices Network on the steering committee, said Hospice at Trillium Lodge will be of tremendous benefit to
local families navigating the end-of-life journey. “It’s our most vulnerable time, when we are dying or when somebody we love is dying,” said Schulz. “Hospice cares for the patient and for the patient’s loved ones. To be able to support our community in this way is amazing. It is so important to be able to offer the full continuum of hospice care for the Oceanside community within the community through the addition of a dedicated hospice unit.” The Nanaimo and District Hospital Foundation is co-ordinating fundraising efforts for the hospice unit at Trillium Lodge and is working with the steering committee partners and individual community donors. “The Hospital Foundation is motivated to support the new end-of-life beds at Trillium Lodge because of the meaningful impact they will have on individuals living in Oceanside communities,” said Jim Crist, hospital foundation chair. “Our donors often tell us how palliative care has made the difference to their loved one during their last days, and to the family left behind,” said Crist. Hospice at Trillium Lodge is part of Island Health’s commitment to the provincial doubling of hospice spaces by 2020. Beds on Vancouver Island will increase from 32 to 64. Island Health’s end-of-life care plan is a long-term vision that will be put in place as resources and competing priorities allow. — Submitted by Island Health

Paint Canada Pink week
Volunteers in more than 60 communities across the country are hosting events to gear up for the annual Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation CIBC Run for the Cure, Sunday, October 4. Organizers in Nanaimo are hosting several activities including an information and registration booth at the Vancouver Island Exhibition, Aug. 21-23, and the Paint Canada Pink Week (Aug. 17-23) pink ribbon decal campaign. “Paint Canada Pink Week is an opportunity to raise awareness about the breast cancer cause and to encourage our community to register and start fundraising for the annual event in Nanaimo,” said Susan Flint, Nanaimo co-run director “Funds raised will invest in innovative research, health education and advocacy programs that aim to reduce
the incidence of breast cancer, lower mortality rates and support women and their families who have been affected by this disease.” “Paint Canada Pink Week marks roughly 50 days until run day so we are encouraging the community to register and start fundraising — it’s not too late.” The run is the largest single-day volunteer-led fund raising event for breast cancer research in Canada. Nanaimo is host to one of only two runs on the Island. Last year 720 runners in Nanaimo raised $113,626, contributing to the regional total of $3.16 million. Survivor Marjike Peterson is featured as a CIBC Run for the Cure local hero joining more than 130 other local heroes across the country who offered to share their story this year. After be-

Having not heard much about breast cancer prior, she was learning a whole new language. “I was almost ready to give up,” she recalled. “Now fifteen years later, I have many more stories to tell.” The run became a focal point for her for many years.

WEEKLY SPECIALS! On July 31 the Qualicum Beach Mayor and Council locked out their municipal workers. After more than two weeks, our town is feeling the effects of this bad decision. We are a tourist community. We rely on welcoming visitors, especially in the summer when the world comes to enjoy our beautiful parks, beaches, and quaint downtown. Instead they arrive in Qualicum Beach to find closed facilities and dying flowers. We have had incredible support from the community as we walk our picket lines.
Please take a few moments to contact our Mayor and Council and let them know you want their lockout to end and Qualicum Beach workers to be treated fairly.

his kind of success doesn’t happen organically. After hovering in the 90,000 range in recent years, Beachfest attendance figures topped 100,000 this year. It was 104,427 to be exact, a record for the Quality Foods Canadian Open Sand Sculpting Competition and Exhibition. The weather has been fantastic, which hasn’t hurt. The sculptures were cool this year — they are cool every year, but the Heroes and Villians theme seemed to capture the imagination of residents and visitors alike. Still, even with all that working in its favour, this event is not a success without some key players, people and organizations we salute today in this space. First, the Beachfest organizing committee. Led superbly by Cheryl Dill, this group of volunteers are the lifeblood of the festival. Yes, those who craft the sculptures are the talent, but they don’t even get here without the work of this committee. Most of the members of this committee lead busy lives, with family and work consuming most of their time. How they find the time for countless meetings — year round, it should be noted — is beyond us. We tip our sand-crusted hats to Dill and these selfless community supporters. Event manager Trish Smith has a difficult job. She does it well every year and she should be proud of the record attendance figure in 2015. Dill, Smith and the committee can’t do it alone. Enter dozens of volunteers from a number of community groups. The Beachfest Society has provided about $350,000 to these groups since 1999. It’s not like these organizations just party with that money — they use it for the good works they do in our region. So, the volunteers from these community groups not only provide a valuable service for the festival, they use the fruits of that service to do more good deeds in Parksville Qualicum Beach. Talk about a total win-win. Then there’s the title sponsor, Quality Foods. We can’t imagine how many sponsorship requests this company receives on a weekly basis, but it seems to answer the bell time and time again. The owners of this growing company are local people — clearly they care. Congratulations to everyone involved in the 2015 festival. Think you can top 105,000 next year? — Editorial by John Harding

Union dEmands not aboUt fairnEss
So far the only justification I’ve heard regarding the Qualicum Beach union workers’ demand for a wage increase is that they want the same thing that the Parksville staff got. Pardon me, but that just sounds like a whiny child: “how come he/she got more than me?!” If you want what the Parksville staff got, then go work in Parksville. Qualicum Beach is a much different place with a significantly smaller tax base. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not anti-union. In fact, I support the theory in principal. It just seems to me that over the past few decades the union goal of “fair treatment and compensation for an honest day’s work” has somehow morphed into “how much more can I get?”
www.pqbnews.com
QUotablE:
The warm, sunny weather, quality of sculpting... and the state of the economy all lead to such tremendous results,” Cheryl Dill, see story page a1
almanac Local Government Contacts proVincial:
More money, more time off, more benefits, more security. Surely at some point the compensation is already fair, other than cost of living wage increases? This shouldn’t be about getting the same thing someone else already got, it should be about what is fair to all parties: the worker, the employer and the taxpayer (who ultimately foots the bill in this case). Fair compensation should be based on the education/skills required for the job, the cost of living and the current job market. I was a member of a couple of unions during my working career and was embarrassed by almost all of the demands they made, ostensibly on my behalf, even though I felt the pay and benefits we already received were more than fair. Now, I don’t know any details around what the Qualicum union staff receive in terms of wages and benefits, so if any of them are willing to share those details to illustrate to me how they are being treated unfairly then I’m more than willing to support them. I’m listening, convince me. Just don’t use the argument of what someone else has already received, it’s irrelevant. In the meantime, kudos to the Town of Qualicum Beach for standing up for the taxpayers on this issue. And a big thank-you to the nonunion staff for stepping up and keeping things going on top of their regular duties, your efforts are much appreciated.
of the majority of Canadians. Effective leadership requires cooperation and consensus, based on knowledge, wisdom and experience. This upcoming election is an opportunity to bring our Canadian parliamentary democracy and constitutional monarchy, into the twenty first century. One logical strategy to develop a more representative government, would be to initiate a National Parliamentary Cooperation Coalition (NPCC). The NPCC would not be a political party; however, it would encourage and engage the best and most experienced individuals, to work together in a spirit of cooperation for the benefit of all Canadians. If Thomas Mulcair, Justin Trudeau, Elizabeth May, and Stephen Harper should be given an ultimatum to stop wasting taxpayers time and money; get off your bandwagons, stop arguing between yourselves and show genuine respect for the country. Hypothetically, if this principle makes sense, the majority of the electorate could be encouraged to suck it up, and vote for one recommended party. Without divisiveness, the other leaders could hold important positions in the new government; based on an undertaking that the NPCC would initiate a review and modernization of the Canadian governance system, before another election.

WE nEEd morE rEspEctfUl politics
The federal election will be held in October, and it is time to move our national politics toward a more respectful and democratic system, that functions in the interest of all Canadians. Modifying the political party system of government is a good place to start. Members of the House of Commons are supposed to be elected to represent their constituents. The constituencies across this vast county reflect a diverse population, with wide ranging beliefs, cultures, needs and expectations. A political party system that is divisive, confrontational and dysfunctional, cannot work in the best interest
rail rEpair bUdgEt doEsn’t Work
A quick check on the Internet shows that to refurbish one mile of rail line runs in the area of $1 million dollars. This is a low estimate, and does not include bridges, stations, or rolling stock. So where did the good folks at ICF come up with this figure of $20.4 million to upgrade the entire rail line? If the upgrading of the line is such a good idea, why has neither CN or CP rail considered this? I guess that’s because they know how much it would really cost to do the upgrade. graham shorTreeD Parksville

Jesus died for us In a recent Pastor’s Point Faith Column, Jeraldine Bjornson of Knox United Church made a couple of good points with regard to our accumulation of “stuff” and how advertising often infers that if we just had enough of whatever they are trying to sell us life would be better. However, there was one particular statement that was of great concern to me. Jeraldine wrote, “Jesus doesn’t die in order to make some kind of payment to God or to satisfy God’s wrath or to pay the penalty for sin.” I cannot reconcile this statement with any portion of scripture. The Old Testament makes very clear our need for a Saviour who would pay the penalty for our sins. The New Testament clearly states that this Saviour is Jesus Christ, who indeed did die for our sins and saves us from God’s wrath. Two of the multitude of scriptures that bear witness to this truth are Isaiah 53:5-6 and Romans 5:8-9. What Jesus did for us on the cross expresses the magnitude of God’s love for us. Sin separates us from God. God does not ignore or deny our sin, but in His great love and mercy He made a way for us to be reconciled to Him. He sent His own son to die on the cross to pay the price for our sins. If we will accept what Jesus Christ did for us we are reconciled to God. If we deny what Jesus did for us on the cross we deny Him and we deny that we are sinners in need of a Saviour. Mary WhiteMan Qualicum Beach
Naylors met goal Our community has shown amazing support for little Samuel Naylor, battling stage four brain cancer. The Naylor family and fund organizers are very happy to announce that we have met our primary goal of $25,000. We want to thank the community for this huge encouragement and their financial support during this difficult time. We could not have done it without each and every one of you. It helped lighten the load for Marie and John Naylor, during an acutely stressful time, to know their financial burdens were being met by a community that wanted to lend a helping hand. Samuel has entered the second phase of his chemotherapy where he has even more medical challenges ahead. He will be in isolation for approximately three months while he goes through stem cell transplants and high doses of toxic chemotherapy drugs. Much will be expected of his small body to endure and to recover from. His family’s endurance will be tested also, as they can only look on as he lives in quarantine. Now more than ever, Samuel, his family and his medical team need our prayers. Providing a safe environment back home, with a new sterile bedroom and specialized equipment, may require more fundraising in the future. It is our hope that service clubs in the area will step forward to help offset those costs, if need be. Meanwhile, please visit: facebook. com/samuelnaylorfundraiser for updates on Samuel’s progress. Samuel’s parents; John and Marie Naylor, and fund organizers; Micki Findlay, Monica Duncan and Nancy Buchanan Zboyovsky, wish to thank all of the wonderful, caring individuals, businesses and organizations who donated time, money and services in support of a family in crisis. To view the complete list, please go to this direct link: http://tinyurl.com/ooayl8p Micki Findlay and Monica duncan Errington
Bring the family down to enjoy a unique interactive walk down memory lane,celebrating the rich heritage of this iconic BC company. Win great prizes, interact with local community partners, enjoy entertainment and festivities!

confused for a tourist, even on home island People have been confusing Arthur Black with tourists since his movie star days in Spain
T
he barista looks me up and down, smiles and asks “So, where ya from?” This is more than annoying, it’s crazy-making. This barista lives on an island. I live on the same island. I’ve been living here for 20 years. A couple of times a month as I’m walking through town or lined up to pay for something, somebody will look me up and down, smile, and ask some variation of “Where ya from?” It’s not their fault — it’s mine. I look like a tourist. Not that I try to. I don’t wear a Tilley fedora, I avoid shirts with palm trees and surf boards on them. I can’t remember the last time I slung a camera around my neck. Still, strangers look at me and something in their brains says ‘tourist’. This goes ‘way back to my days as an international movie star. True story. I was a 25-year-old vagabond sitting in a Madrid cafe, on a break from hitchhiking my way through
Europe. As I nursed my cafe con leche I movies when an agent saw her sitting at suddenly felt the hairs on the back of my the counter of the Top Hat Malt Shop in neck doing a little impromptu tango.

Lana Turner had been scouted for the As I gave him back his pen I asked him
what it was about me that made him think I belonged up there on the silver screen. Was it my fine and manly baritone? My regal bearing? My noble profile? He shook his head. “No, man. You will play ‘extra’. You look like American tourist.” Which is how I got to appear in a movie called Oscuros Suenos en Agosto — Dark Dreams in August. It was ‘oscuro’ all right. I don’t think the movie even made it to the Spanish rural circuit, never mind the international film world. Still, if by some miracle, you come across a copy, pay special attention at the 35-minute mark. It’s a crowd scene and you can spot me in the bottom left hand corner of the screen. If you don’t blink. It’s been a lot of years, but it’s unmistakably me. I look exactly like an American tourist. — Arthur Black lives on Saltspring Island. His column appears weekly in The NEWS.

The Parksville Beach Festival Society said its mandate is to not only create fun, family-friendly events along side Parksville’s main beach, but also to help the community grow. According to their policies, the Society assigns 25 per cent of gate proceeds to community projects and philanthropic groups. Contributing to the maintenance and development of the Community Park is also a high priority, according to a news release from the society. Since 1999, the society has donated close to $350,000 to non-profit organizations and community projects, which included construction of the park gazebo and community signs. The society said it reserves funds annually to help sustain its future events, which can be threatened by such things as inclement weather. For 2015, the society said it aims to donate to 19 not-for-profit organizations, who provided gate greeters at the entrance to the sand sculpting site during the public exhibition. The exact donation will be determined once bookkeeping is completed in September.
Connecting Advertisers to Customers “When United Floors, Parksville decided to expand our window covering division by offering “blind cleaning and repairs”, we chose to promote the new service by using The PQB News. The response to both of the the ads was incredible with great results. We started receiving phone calls on the first day of publication. On several occasions while I was at appointments, I often noticed our ads clipped out on customer’s counters or on the fridge. Advertising in the paper was the right choice for our new venture, and targeted the right customers at the right time. If you are looking for proven results, call The NEWS and if you need blinds cleaned or repaired contact me, Wayne, “The King of Blinds” at United Floors”. ~ Wayne Baxter

Big Bike for Heart and Stroke
Help find a spot for a life-saving defibrilator
The former Coast Realty Group wants the public to help choose a spot for life saving medical equipment. Before being purchased by Royal Lepage recently, the Coast Realty Group with team captain Aaron Nicklen took part in the Heart and Stroke Foundation’s Big Bike Event last summer for the eighth year in a row. As the team that raised the most of all on Vancouver Island, at almost $13,000, Coast Realty won an automated external defibrillator (AED) for the community. The team rode in Qualicum Beach on June 3, 2015 bringing their eight year total over $46,000. Not only did they put their heart into a great cause, but they also spurred on Royal Lepage who were the second biggest fundraisers at $9,000.
PHoto SuBmitted By CoaSt realty
The Coast Realty team with the Big Bike in Qualicum Beach.
Coast Realty has a special connection to the foundation, Nicklen said in a news
release, because they include survivors and know that every dollar they raise
helps create more survivors. “It is so nice to be recognized for all of our hard work,” he said. “We have been such strong supporters of the Heart and Stroke Foundation over the past eight years and we’re proud to be able to have a hand in making this life-saving equipment available during a cardiac medical emergency in our community.” The team is asking the public to send in their location suggestions to aaronnicklen@gmail.com by Aug. 28. The person who suggests the chosen location will be entered to win a $100 gift certificate to Cuckoo Trattoria in Coombs.

Orca Airways, which services Qualicum Beach Airport, is reporting a large increase in traffic compared to last year and has purchased an aircraft that will double the capacity while cutting flight times in half. Recently purchased and extensively retrofitted, the Orca Airways Beech 99 will fly between Vancouver International Airport (YVR) and Vancouver Island destinations including Tofino-Long Beach Airport (YAZ) which, according to Alberni-Clayoquot Regional District (ACRD) records, has experienced a 33% increase in air traffic between January and June, 2015, compared to the same period in 2014.

In addition to doubling passenger seating capacity, the company said in a news release the
Beech 99 halves the current flying time for scheduled routes between Vancouver and Vancouver Island destinations (such as Qualicum Beach and Tofino) currently serviced by Orca Airways’ seven-seat Piper Navajo Chieftain aircraft. “The Beech 99 in an ideal aircraft to help us address the remarkable increase in demand for regional commuter and leisure passenger service,” said Andrew Naysmith, president and CEO of Orca Airways. “Our daily service between Vancouver, Qualicum Beach, Tofino and other Vancouver Island airports has become the preferred travel option for many residents and visitors, and we have seen a significant spike in demand in the past two years. We are very excited to be able to offer our growing number of passengers a faster, larger capacity aircraft option, operated by two crew members at all times.” Founded in 2005 in Vancouver, Orca Airways provides scheduled passenger service to and from Abottsford, Tofino, Qualicum Beach, Vancouver and Victoria.

One spouse shouldn’t handle all the money
Couples share their dreams and goals, sometimes they share housework or yard work, but it is very important for couples to share their knowledge about their own finances. This doesn’t mean that spouses shouldn’t have their own accounts that they manage, it means that one spouse shouldn’t handle all the money and financial dealings and the other is left in the dark; managing household finances is not one of the duties that should be taken on soley by one partner, and here are a few reasons to keep the communication open around money: • leaving one spouse in the dark about money matters can be emotionally daunting if the one managing the finances is no longer able due to a disability, suddenly passes away, or even leaves the marriage. • one spouse may think they are protecting their partner from extra worry and stress about bills, but in reality they may be building distrust and what could

Ever-changing blues band plays in Nanoose Band formed according to availability of local players CARLI BERRY reporter@pqbnews.com
The Alexander’s Bluestime Band is a band of ever changing members. Frank Alexander, lead vocalist and front man, said different musicians contact him for different gigs as he’s connected to the blues community. It’s “whosoever available,” he said. Alexander said he forms the Bluestime band based on the availability of local musicians in the area. He has a bass player who is currently performing in Nashville and his musicians are some of the best musicians from over the island. They contact him to perform usually, he said, and his current band will be performing blues tunes at the Smoke ‘N Water on Aug. 20 from 6 to 12 p.m. Alexander said his love of blues comes from his family. He’s related to one of the first black pioneer families who ended up in Victoria, he said. He is related to Nancy and Charles Alexander, Jackie Moisan, Alexander’s band manager, said. The Alexander’s were a famous family in Victoria, known for having black heritage, she said. “Ever since I was a kid I had uncles tapping on their knees,” Alexander said. It “made me want to be able to do it.” From then on, blues was a huge part of Alexander’s life. He said he even received the praise that he had “soul” from an audience member last time he played at the Smoke ‘N Water and has performed there three or four times. Singing isn’t the only thing Alexander does, he has been learning multiple instruments for 49 years. “I love to play… if we [have] a musical instrument then we’ll play.” This time he will be playing with Trevor Manuel on drums, Al Medcalf on guitar and Marty Howe on harp and flute. Since he has been performing for so long, he said he doesn’t get nervous per-

forming with near-strangers. He doesn’t face many challenges being with people he hasn’t know for a long time. “He mixes young and old and puts it all together,” Moisan said. Alexander said there was one concert he played with four members who he hadn’t played with before and it was
interesting because they could play over 120 songs together that they all knew. He said it’s because the talented musicians find him, that he’s able to perform so easily. He’s also involved with the Nanaimo Blues Society so he is able to connect with musicians there, Moisan said. It also
saves money performing with a temporary band, Alexander said. This fall he plans to release an original album with special guests, Moisan said. The Alexander’s Bluestime Band is part of the Smoke ‘N Water’s summer concert series. Tickets are $5 for adults and $2 for children.

Camp Narnia Adventure This is the first year that Camp Narnia had an animal farm CARLI BERRY reporter@pqbnews.com
Have you ever wanted to visit the land of Narnia? This summer kids had the opportunity to try the next best thing. Camp Narnia is a children’s camp that ran in three separate intervals from Aug. 2 to 8, 9 to 15, and 16 to 22. Camp director Sam Clinock said this year’s theme focused on the first novel of the Chronicles of Narnia series: The Magician’s Nephew. Every Thursday night a camp play was held where children and councillors acted out scenes from the novel. “Kids really respond well and learn well with story,” Clinock said. “A lot of the values and imagination and magic part of the camp comes from the books and their (the original owners of the camp) design of it.” Camp Narnia originally started on Salt Spring Island in 1996 but has been at the Seven Springs Camp and Retreat Centre, which is located just outside of Parksville, since 2011. The camp is not based on any religious practices or values, but on the magic of the books, Clinock said. “We had 130 kids signed up for this summer,” he said. The camp is for children ages 6 to 12 and teens from 13 to 15.

“We’re a community based camp, so we keep our numbers low,” he said. “I know every kid’s name.” Clinock said he has been involved with the camp since he was nine-years-old. “It gives kids a chance to experience things that they wouldn’t in their day to day life. Those are things like chopping their own vegetables and doing team-building exercises.” Part of the camp has the children learning skills that would be learned in the pioneer days. “We have an activity called homesteading,” Clinock said. This is the first year that Camp Narnia had an animal farm where children can learn how to take care of the animals. Every year they have a fire-building exercise to build a fire without the use of paper, garden growing and gathering, and learning how to cook simple meals, he said. “They’re able to experience what food looks like and what it takes to actually produce the things that we eat.” This is also the first year that the camp has a darkroom and pin-hole cameras for the children to create their own photographs along with other outdoor activities like archery, kayaking, crafts, puppetry, ice cream making, acting and more that all follows a tight schedule. Clinock said he hopes in the future to own property for the camp to have a full animal farm and vegetable garden. The camp costs $525 per week and one can visit their website at campnarnia.com for more information.

Donald (Don) Emery Ford Born in New Brunswick October 8, 1939 – August 10, 2015
Don left behind his wife Jan (nee Bray) of 43 years, as he passed away in his sleep at home, with Jan holding his hand, after a short battle with cancer. He left behind his son Rick and daughter Dawn plus his five siblings and grandchildren. Don and Jan have lived in Qualicum for two years coming west from Newmarket area in Ontario. He worked with Gulf Oil/Petro Canada for 32 years. He loved the wonderful people he met through the Newcomers Club of Qualicum. His gentle smile, chuckle, and sincere personality will be missed by fishing, walking, and wine tasting buddies. Don was very close with his sister-in-law Rosslyn (Bray) and husband, Bill Whitehead, and his brothers-in-law, Steve and Bernie Bray. His beloved dog, Woody, is sadly still looking for his walking partner. Don is fishing now and catching the big ones. We know you are looking down on us and chuckling softly. We hold you close in our hearts. A Celebration of Don’s life will be held on August 21st from 3:00 pm – 5:00 pm at 1109 Spoon Close, Eaglecrest, Qualicum.

MYLES STANLEY NOVAK Born September 30, 1938, passed away peacefully at home in Parksville on August 12, 2015
Pre-deceased by their infant son Stephen, Myles is survived by his loving wife of 54 years, Adriana (Anne), daughters Catherine, Patti and son David (Lisa); Catherine’s three sons, Daniel, Benjamin and Stephen; Patti’s daughter Mia and son Floyd; David & Lisa’s sons Mitchell and Curtis, and by sister Kerin Mana of Bellingham, WA. Myles was born September 30, 1938 in Calgary and initially attended a one-room school (9 grades) across the road from the family farm in Lyalta, Alberta, followed by schools in Strathmore and San Diego, California. After studying engineering for a year at San Diego State, Myles embarked upon the first of three separate careers when he returned to Canada and joined the Royal Canadian Mounted Police at age 18. He trained in Regina, then was posted to British Columbia where he served for 24 years at various detachments throughout the province. When he retired from his position in 1982, he was in charge of the plainclothes investigative section at Kelowna Detachment. His second career began when he received his accountant’s and financial planner’s designations, and practiced for several years in Kelowna. During this time, Myles became involved in federal politics, and was a founding member of the Reform Party of Canada. His activities led to his third career of thirteen years as Executive Assistant to his Member of Parliament. In addition to these occupations, Myles was often found with a hammer in his hand and a tape measure in his pocket, having started building homes with his father as a teenager. He built or finished several of his own homes, and from 2005 to 2014 partnered with his son David on their company, Arbutus Lane Homes. Throughout Myles’ adult life he was actively involved in community organizations, service clubs and coaching minor sports, devoting countless enjoyable hours to these endeavors. Personal relationships were always one of Myles’ priorities, and he actively maintained contact with his many friends and former workmates, but his greatest enjoyment came from the closeness of his family. We extend heartfelt thanks to the Nanaimo Regional Hospital Cancer Clinic, Medical Daycare, Dr. Denegri, and a special thank you to Dr. Stephen Noble and the Parksville Home Care Nurses for their excellent care. A Memorial Service will be held at our home 12 Constantine Place, Parksville on August 22, 2015 from 1:30 pm to 4:00 pm. In lieu of flowers please donate to you charity of choice in memory of Myles.

Beach volleyBall
Beach tournament draws hundreds There was lots of exciting action on the sand over the busy Parksville Beach weekend T yson Taylor sports@pqbnews.com
The 2015 Western Beach Volleyball Nationals have come to a close after an entertaining three days that saw the best teams from Western Canada competing for gold in Parksville. Battling it out across three age groups (U-14, U-16, U-18) there was plenty of action to check out across the 22 courts setup on Parksville Beach. The sun was out for two of the three days, with the liquid sunshine making an appearance on Saturday morning . But that didn’t put a damper on the action, with nine teams going undefeated through the first two days. The U-14 Girls (Tier 1) gold medal winners were the Kroontje/Thompson team (Alberta). Winning gold in the U-14 Girls (Tier 2) was the Molnar/
Yamaji team (from B.C.). In the U-14 Boys (Tier 1) it was the Kim/Prinsloo (B.C.) team earning gold. In a packed U-16 Girls division, which saw four tiers in the tournament, it was the Hart/Peat (Alberta) team capturing gold in Tier 1. The Franklin/Yule team (B.C.) won gold in Tier 2, the Molnar/Bauer team (B.C.) took Tier 3 and the Greene/ Behie (B.C.) team won in the fourth tier. The Granley/Brennan team (Alberta) captured gold in the U-16 Boys division in an all Alberta final. It was also an all Alberta final for the U-18 Girls, with the Furlan/Hemens team beating out the Lapins/Klassen team for the gold medal. On the U-18 Boys side, the Saly/Vanderlinde team (Alberta) captured gold over the B.C. team of Montgomery/ Faester. auren ruvInsky PhoTo

Gens ease into pre-season with training camp T yson Taylor sports@pqbnews.com
The Save-On-Foods Oceanside Generals held their training camp ahead of the 2015/16 VIJHL regular season, with 40 hopefuls taking to the ice over three days. Head coach Brad Knight put the players through the paces, checking their level of conditioning and how they’d react through drills. In total, there were five practices and two games, with the first four practices split between two groups of players and then a final practice after exit interviews. “I thought it went really

well,” Knight said. “I was very impressed with the leadership that the older
players showed throughout the weekend. They really stepped it up when
it came to leading the way during drills and setting the pace, so that was a big
positive to take away from the weekend.” Knight will be the fourth coach behind the bench in the last year after spending time with the Victoria Grizzlies of the BCHL as both head coach and general manager in 2014. “I’m excited to be here,” he said. “I love the game of hockey and I’ve met lots of great people in the Parksville area over the years. There’s a great group of fans that support this team and great community support as well. I like a challenge and anytime you can take over a team that’s struggling, there’s a bit of work to do but I en-
joy that.” Having been the first official hire by general manager Rob Gaudreault, both have gone to work building a team they hope will produce wins. “It’s been nice working with Rob,” Knight said. “He’s one of the bigger reasons I came here. He was caught in a tough position last year and things didn’t turn out the way he wished they would have. We’ve made some good moves, Rob’s done a great job putting together a good roster here and we’re looking forward to really getting it going.” See GenS, page A34

The North Island Royals capped off their season with a third place finish at the provincial championships this past weekend The Royals were in tough against Burnaby in the semi-finals, falling behind early 4-1. They would come back to tie the game 4-4 and even had a chance to go ahead in the bottom of the eighth inning with the bases loaded, but failed to put a run on the board. Burnaby would go on to score a run in the top of the ninth and held on to beat the Royals 5-4. Heading into the championship tournament as the sixth seed, the Royals opened against fourth seed North Delta. The Royals had a 4-1 lead after six innings of play but North Delta staged a late comeback, beating the Royals 5-4. Game two saw the Royals take a page out of

their earlier loss to North Delta after coming back from 9-3 against second seed Abbotsford, winning the game 12-10. The Royals would earn another comeback victory in their third game against Tri-Cities, walking off with a win in the bottom of the seventh inning. They wrapped up the round-robin play with a 13-3 mercy victory over tenth seeded Cowichan to earn top spot in their pool. “It was a great tournament,” President of Oceanside Baseball Mike Parlow said. “It was a tremendous effort by the team. That’s the second time in three years the North Island Royals have finished third at provincials and it’s a testament to the great job done by head coach Ryan Chenard and his coaches. Oceanside is very fortunate to be a part of such a thriving and competitive league for our local players.”
The Gens made a few acquisitions recently, bringing back Jonah Pearson and Wyatt Meiers. Both started last season with the team before being traded to the Nanaimo Buccaneers. The Gens also added 17-year-old forward Ethan Sundstrum from the Comox Valley Glacier Kings and Jerry Bickerton, a former player under Knight, will join as an associate coach.

“Jerry knows what I’m all about,” Knight said. “He understands the culture that I want to bring to this team. We want to see a hard working group. You put in the work in practice and you’ll see the results come in games. Winning is never easy in life, no matter if it’s in sports, business, anything out there, it’s tough. We want to have a group together that’s going to put in the hard work to get that success.”

Morningstar Golf Club
www.morningstargolf.com Whether you’re a discerning golfer like myself, a casual recreational socially orientated golfer or a once a month, crack me a cold one hacker one thing that impacts all of these types is on course conditions. At Morningstar the hot dogs and burgers can be piping hot and fresh, the beer and wine chilled perfectly and the staff grinning from ear to ear to serve you. It generally follows this rule, start with great greens, level groomed tee boxes and consistent sand in the bunkers and most eveything else will be overlooked with little or no concern. The fourth feature that generally follows are fairway conditions: and in spite of the drought and very dry conditions turning some of the fairways at Morningstar brown - the drought has little or no negative bearing on how playable the course is in the midst of these desert like weather conditions. The resurgent greens continue to play perfectly and as can be seen in the accompanying recent photo from last Friday of the 6th green at Morningstar and in spite of the dry conditions they receive a shot as they should allowing for a high shot to land and softly roll like a smooth putt up to the hole. What dry areas there are on the fairways are most likely a plus for 90% of golfers providing a little more roll and extra yardage. Mother nature, thank you for the bonus.

Upcoming Events The great conditions of the course allow me to be very confident in inviting golfers to enter two premier events coming up in the next few weeks. The first, a Pro Am is the closest most amateur golfers can get to being right in the thick of the action playing with PGA Professionals. My single biggest payday as a fledgling pro was winning a Pro AM in the early 90’s in one of the best types of formats. I suggest you try a Pro AM out, very cool. The $200 cheque was too. For those who liked to really be challenged are
the Ironmans of the world, where the course plays its longest possible and the pin positions are often diabolical. I love Ironmans and I am already signed up for the one mentioned below. My new swing-teaching pro John Randle and I have been working and it’s really coming together — I am stoked to have a great time playing on September 27 with some of the big dawgs. Join me. Tuesday September 8th – 4th annual Camp Corp Pro Am. 1:30 shotgun start. Format is 1 pro and 3 amateurs playing in a two best net ball competition. $100 entry fee – golf, dinner and chance at
the $4,000 prize table. Sign up as an individual or as a team of 3 amateurs (They will find you a pro) Sunday September 27th – IRONMAN. 1:00 shotgun start. Play Morningstar from over 7,000 yards with the toughest hole locations we can find. Pace of play is not great but we always seem to have a good time. Cost is $80 per player and that includes golf, power cart, dinner, & prizes. Stay in touch and as always, Good Golfing. Sincerely, “Diamond Bill”
UPCOMING EVENTS Mens Night: Tonight and Sept. 15 Couples nights: Aug. 21 and Sept. 18 Ladies Nights: Aug. 26 and Sept. 16 Next men’s night are vying for a hi-def TV. Mike Jiggins Memorial Fun Golf Night: Next ladies night a $1000 downtown Saturday, September 12 Qualicum shopping spree.
