Rob and Brenda Harris were in New Orleans at a dry cleaning con-ference when the bad news came.

They were in Louisiana learning new ways to improve their business, White Hat Drycleaners and Com-mercial Laundry, but instead they were forced to fly home early after fire gutted their store at 601-11th Avenue.

“It was the longest flight home ever – we’re still in a state of shock,” Brenda said Monday.

Investigators believe an electrical problem ignited the blaze which incinerated just about everything inside the store and also damaged at least two neighbouring plaza businesses: Stonehouse Teas and St. Jean’s Can-nery and Smokehouse.

Fire crews were alerted to the blaze on Saturday at 12:14 a.m. When they arrived, flames were leaping 10 metres into the air from the one-storey structure.

The Campbell River Fire Depart-ment responded with 31 firefighters, three engines and a ladder truck, along with other emergency vehicles.

There wasn’t much they could do to save the dry cleaning business, but

they did manage to control flames from spreading to several businesses packed into the downtown block.

“We got to it just in time,” said Fire Chief Ian Baikie, as he and others investigated the cause of the blaze later Saturday morning.

White Hat was the only dry clean-ing business on the entire North Island. Even clothes from the Harris’ White Hat store in Comox came to Campbell River to be cleaned.

“We’re it,” said Brenda, who expressed concern for the 12

employees in Campbell River who are tempo-rarily out of work.

However, Brenda said she and her hus-band are working hard to find a temporary location and they’ve

received tremendous support from other dry cleaners down Island as well as the community.

“I’ve never been through a fire like this,” she said. “Everyone has been amazing. We’ve had so many offers of help.”

Rob and Brenda Harris are well-known in Campbell River for their philanthropic efforts in supporting the Kinsmen along with the local hospice society, collecting winter coats for the needy, and helping out other charitable causes.

This is their 19th year in business.

The B.C. SPCA rescued 19 cats and kittens in distress from an animal hoarder in Tahsis last week.

The cats and kittens were suffering from a range of medical issues, i n c lu d i ng wou n d s , lesions, ear mites, inter-nal parasites, ocular dis-charge, fleas and diar-rhea.

“The conditions in the area they were living were absolutely deplor-able,” said SPCA senior constable Tina Heary. “The odour of urine, ammonia and feces was so overwhelming that our staff had to step away periodically to recover while they were captur-ing the animals.

“It’s so sad to think of the cats and kittens hav-ing to live in this envi-ronment.”

She noted that one female cat was about to give birth and would have had to deliver her

babies in the highly unsanitary conditions.

All the cats and kit-tens were transported to the Comox Valley SPCA where they are receiv-ing veterinary treatment and ongoing care. The pregnant mom delivered her kittens at the shelter shortly after the warrant was executed.

Lorie Chortyk, gen-eral manager of com-munity relations for the BC SPCA, said hoard-ing cases are challenging for the SPCA because of the space and resources needed to care for large numbers of incoming animals.

“Animals rescued from hoarding situations have been through so much and we want to do every-thing possible to get them healthy again and in loving homes as soon as possible,” she said.

She added that this is the second large hoard-ing case the SPCA has

dealt with in recent weeks.

S P C A c o n s t a b l e s removed 31 cats and kittens from a Port Coquitlam home earlier this month.

The BC SPCA would be grateful for any public donations to help offset the care costs of the Tah-sis cats and kittens.

The animals are not currently available for viewing while undergo-ing medical treatment but should be available for adoption in upcom-ing weeks. If you can help, visit spca.bc.ca/support or contact the Comox Valley SPCA at 250-339-7722.

Comox SPCA Branch supervisor Jennifer Fil-gate added that, due to the large number of kit-tens being abandoned or surrendered to the shel-ter at this time of year, volunteer foster homes for kittens are urgently needed.

Cyclist not seriously injured

A 64-year-old Campbell River woman was fortunate to escape serious injury after she was struck by a pickup truck on Saturday.

The accident occurred around 2:20 p.m., on the Island Highway. According to RCMP, the woman was cycling north towards downtown and was near the entrance to Discovery Pier and the Maritime Heritage Centre when she was struck by a red Mazda pickup turning left out of the parking lot.

The woman was taken by

ambulance to Campbell River Hospital and treated for minor injuries.

Meanwhile, the driver of the pickup truck did not have a driver’s licence and also had four outstanding arrest warrants from Alberta.

The 40-year-old Royston man was arrested on the warrants.

He was also charged with breaching his release conditions along with new charges under the Motor Vehicle Act.

The man was held in custody for a court appearance.

Police check out three B&Es

On Friday, at 8:51 a.m., police investigated a break and enter to Inland Kenworth at 2470 Island Hwy.

Sometime overnight, the culprit(s) entered the locked compound, broke into two commercial trucks and stole tools along with machinery.

Also on Friday, at 4:37 a.m., RCMP received a call from a security company about an alarm ringing at Campbell River Boatland, 3125 Island Hwy. The culprit(s) broke a window in attempt to gain entry, but did not enter and

may have been scared away due to the alarm.

On June 17, police were called to a break and enter at Pure Wireless located at the Discovery Harbour Mall.

The culprit(s) entered a vacant neighbouring business and then into Pure Wireless by cutting a hole in the drywall. An undisclosed amount of cash was taken. If you have any information about these break

and enters, contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

Attention shoppersOn June 18, police

responded to a complaint of a theft of a wallet from a shopping cart in the Walmart parking lot.

According to RCMP, a woman was putting her child in her vehicle when a male walked up and asked if he could have her buggy. She said “sure” and he took off with the buggy which still had her wallet in it. Police followed up with the victim and found that

her wallet had been turned into Walmart with all of its contents. It’s unknown why the male ran off with her wallet and did not stop to return it.

He has not been identified and it’s unknown if it was he who turned in her wallet. The aboriginal male was described as 5’6” tall, medium build with short, dark hair, and wearing a blue baseball cap and bright red shorts.

“RCMP are urging the public to be vigilant about their wallets and purses left in buggies and baskets while shopping,” said Cpl. Poppy Hallam.

In an article published in the Friday, June 21 edition of the Mirror, titled Council wants Campbellton to step up, it was reported that two funding requests from the Campbellton Neigh-bourhood Association were turned down by council. In fact, council did approve one request for $7,500 for a summer student. The Mirror apologizes for the error.

A four-way stop appears to be the best option for improving safety and traffic con-trol at the Merecroft and Alder intersection.

A report to council from the city’s trans-portation manager, Drew Hadfield, con-firms what Alder resi-dent Ted Haylow told council two weeks ago – that measures need to be taken to slow down traffic on Alder.

Hadfield said the city did an intersection count at the Merecroft and Alder intersection this spring.

“ T h e e v a lu at i on

results support the need...for traffic control improvements at this intersection,” Hadfield said in the report. “Pos-sible improvements include a four-way stop, a round-about, or traf-fic signals.”

Hadfield said that although those options may divert impatient motorists from Alder to residential routes like Murphy or Birch to avoid traffic controls, a four-way stop would achieve the desired intent of slowing down traffic on Alder.

Hadfield said traf-fic signals will likely be required long term but right now the city’s financial plan

includes funding for just one traffic signal in 2014 at a cost of about $200,000. The wrinkle is that other intersec-tions, such as Petersen and 14th Avenue, Alder and 2nd, and Highway 19A and 2nd, are a greater priority for a traffic light.

As for a roundabout, there’s not enough space.

That leaves a four-way stop, which would cost the city roughly $2,300 for two new stop signs and road markings.

It would cost another $2,500 to remove the existing flashing pedes-trian light currently at that intersection. Those changes would likely

have to take place in 2014, as the budget for 2013 has already been set.

Haylow urged council to consider a four-way stop when he made a presentation to council June 11.

Haylow said Alder Street residents are fed up with the way motor-ists speed down the street.

“Ever since the recon-figuration to the lights on Dogwood and the modifications to the roadways on Murphy Street and Highway 19A, Alder Street has become a freeway for speeders and heavy traf-fic,” Haylow said. “We have waited patiently

for the city to work on our behalf to slow the traffic on Alder before someone is killed.”

He said when the city installed a left-hand turn lane at the Alder and Merecroft intersec-tion, it made the situa-tion worse.

He said several Alder residents have wit-nessed or been involved in near-misses, with people nearly being hit while walking in cross-walks or cars nearly being hit while pulling out of driveways.

But despite those instances, Hadfield said according to traffic sta-tistics, the rate of acci-dents on Alder Street is relatively low.

“Overall collision rates are low along this corridor with an aver-age of two to four per year at the major cross-ing points,” Hadfield said. “Overall, the colli-sion rates have held or are trending a decrease with the traffic volumes holding or increasing.”

Hadfield noted that a review of the Alder Street corridor is sched-uled for this year.

Council was expected to decide whether it wants to proceed with the review this fall and make a decision on the Alder/Merecroft inter-section at Tuesday eve-ning’s council meeting, after the Mirror went to press.

Charges of racism and catering to the wealthy have been levelled at the Strathcona Regional Dis-trict board.

That’s after the board decided to not hold a public hearing for a pro-posed marina on prop-erty owned by the appli-cant – a First Nations band.

Directors received 13 letters and a petition with 75 signatures and counting, condemning the board for its decision to hold the public hear-ing (necessary for the re-zoning for the marina) at what the board perceived as a “neutral” location.

The fall out from that decision was fuelled by Cortes Director Noba Anderson who, in a let-ter posted to the cortesis-land.com Tideline web-site, encouraged Cortes Islanders to take action.

“Stand up! Take time from your garden and families ,” Anderson wrote. “Stand up! Take time from your work and your play.”

Anderson made it clear that she had no part in choosing Gorge Hall, which is not in the Kla-hoose territory, for the site of the public hearing.

“As it presently stands, the public hearing is scheduled for July 24, at 1 p.m. at the Gorge Hall,” Anderson wrote. “I did not vote in sup-port of this and am not happy with this deci-sion. I made every effort to honour Klahoose’s request, but I have only one of four votes. Some have strongly advised me to be more tempered, to take the middle road, to hold a more neutral stance.

“Frankly, when it comes to this topic, I am no longer willing.

“I said that this was a clear moment of choice – that we could either show some deference and respect and build on our good rapport with Klahoose or profoundly erode it and set a sour tone for our future First Nations interactions. I shared that it has been tradition to locate public hearings in the affected

community. I also stated very clearly that if a venue other than Kla-hoose was chosen, that I fully expected a response from the Cortes commu-nity.”

Cortes islanders deliv-ered, with some accusing regional district directors of being insensitive.

“I am profoundly offended at the blatant racism of your decision to hold the meeting at the Gorge Hall rather than at Klahoose to con-sider their application for a marina,” said Gabriel Dinim in a letter to the board. “You must have cowed to private inter-est rather than reflect the view of the majority of your electorate.

“Your lack of moral leadership is distressing and I sincerely hope that your cowardice will be vigorously brought up at election time.”

Area D director Brenda Leigh said her reason-ing for wanting to have the public hearing off of Klahoose property was in response to letters from people who wanted to speak at the public

hearing but were afraid to speak their mind on the applicant’s territory.

“People who want to speak, if they’re on the applicant’s grounds, they may feel inhibited. It should be in a neutral location,” Leigh said at a meeting May 23.

That sentiment was supported in a letter from resident Peter Stockdill.

“I do feel that to have the public hearing at the (Klahoose multi-purpose centre) might discour-age non-members of the Klahoose Nation from attending and many might be intimidated

and not feel comfortable speaking their minds,” Stockdill said, speaking from previous experi-ence after attending a public meeting on the Tork Reserve last July.

Sheila Boutcher, presi-dent of the council of BC Yacht Clubs, said the club felt “that it would be inappropriate to hold the hearing on the appli-cant’s property” and that “a neutral venue would be much fairer to all con-cerned.”

Directors Leigh, Ger-ald Whalley (Nootka-Sayward/Kyuquot) and Jim Abram (Quadra I s l a n d / D i s c o v e r y Islands) voted in favour of the “neutral” Gorge Hall site after a one-and-a-half hour stalemate between directors with Leigh and Whalley refus-ing to budge on holding the public hearing away from Klahoose property and Abram and Ander-son wanting to hold the meeting at the Klahoose

multi-purpose centre.Abram, in the end,

voted on the Gorge site as a compromise – the date was satisfactory to the Klahoose compared to an original date of July 6, at Manson’s Hall voted on by the board at a meeting May 23.

Cortes resident Greg Osoba bel ieves the directors gave in to the wealthy, who don’t nec-essarily contribute to the island.

“Who are you serving?” Osoba questioned. “Your decision to hold the hearing at the Gorge Hall seems to cater directly to boaters/yachters who are well off and contribute almost nothing to the Cortes community. Both the Seattle and Vancou-ver yacht clubs are exclu-sive groups who add little to our community. It also makes me wonder where your allegiance lies.

“To wealthy occasional visitors or to a First Nation offering to host

all Cortes Islanders and yachters on their tradi-tional territory?

“A cynical person might also view this deci-sion as racist and insensi-tive.”

The regional district board meets again on Thursday and perhaps ironically enough, will welcome Lillian Jack, representative for the Kyuquot/Checles eht First Nation, who has been granted observer status at board and committee of the whole meetings.

Stroke Awareness Month reminds us to think FAST

Stroke is one of the leading causes of death and disability in Canada. June is Stroke Awareness Month and the Vancouver Island Health Authority urges residents to know the signs of stroke and get help as quickly as possible.

Quick diagnosis and treatment of a stroke changes the outcome for a patient; and knowing the warning signs of stroke can ensure that every second counts.

Remember, think FAST: n Facial droop: one side of face does

not move as well as the other.n Arm drift: one arm does not move

or drifts downward when held extended.n Speech: patient slurs words, uses the

wrong word, or cannot speak at all.n Time: to call 911.The bottom line is, if you notice

sudden loss of strength or numbness in the face, arm or leg; sudden difficulty speaking or confusion; or a sudden severe and unusual headache, call 911.

The Strathcona Regional District board has set itself up for some pretty unpleasant accusations as a result of the way it has handled holding a hearing into a marina

application by the Klahoose First Nation.

The bottom line is that the board is breaking with precedent by not holding the hearing on the applicant’s land. While the sensitivity to those who might want to speak in opposition to the rezoning is admirable, it has not

often, if at all, been done before. By giving into those opponents’ sensitivity, the board

has alienated many Cortes Island residents, not just those living in Klahoose territory. Many non-Native residents of the island are disgusted by the board’s actions as well. The board has also upset Cortes Island’s representative to the board, Noba Anderson, who is urging island residents to speak out vociferously against the board.

The optics are bad on this one. The board’s decision has been accused of being racist and pandering to rich non-resident yacht owners. That can’t be a good way to conduct business, even if the charges are unfounded. It doesn’t look good.

Again, the precedent has been to hold the hearings on the property of the applicant and there’s no reason to not

continue that precedent. To suggest that Klahoose Band members are going to be so hostile at a public hearing that opponents will be afraid to speak is insulting to the band. They may be passionate, they may have strong feelings but you have every right to expect to be treated fairly and civilly.

Meanwhile, to say it’s too difficult to travel to Klahoose territory for the hearing is a red herring as well. It’s just as difficult for Klahoose residents to travel to a hearing held in a non-band location as it is for others to travel to Klahoose.

Precedent says hold it in the Klahoose community. Stick with precedent.

I am sadly dismayed at the recent published article “DNA Test To Determine Real Father.”

I feel that the choice to publish such an article impacts the integrity of your paper and is close enough to align com-parison with a Jerry Springer episode. Surely there are more interesting stories in our community to focus on other than a number of selected people’s personal struggles such as this.

It is not a crime that has been committed so why publish such a piece in your paper?

I think this reporter should look at their social responsibil-ity as well as their professional one and gain some insight as well as maturity before submitting their next story.

I would appreciate this being posted in your paper. Alicia BorenheimCampbell River

Local waters and beaches perfect for exploringWent canoeing last weekend. First

time this year.I took a little paddle into Goose

Lake which is basically an extension of Mohun Lake. The two bodies of water are connected by a narrows crossed by the rotting pylons of two old logging bridges. They put me in mind of the ruins of an ancient gate.

Once you get through them, you’re into Goose Lake which is a very different body of water from Mohun Lake.

Mohun is the biggest lake in the Say-ward Forest Canoe Route. It’s one of the access points for canoeists doing that route. That’s because there’s a nice boat ramp adjacent to Morton Lake Provin-cial Park which is a good place to camp if you’re travelling from afar to canoe the

circuit. Morton Lake is a lovely place to camp

in its own right and you have access to tiny Morton and it’s nice little day-use beach or you can carry your canoe to Mohun and paddle the bigger lake. The fishing’s better in Mohun, although I’ve had fun with the little ones in Morton. However, I should warn you that get-ting fishing recommendations from me would be like getting expense account advice from Mike Duffy – not very reli-able.

Gooseneck Lake is fun to paddle because it has a deeply convoluted shoreline of bays, inlets and narrows as well as some little islands. It’s great for exploring by canoe.

There always seems to be a pair of

loons in each of these lakes and last Sat-urday was no exception. I just love to here their ululating calls. Magical.

At the northern end of it is the begin-ning of the portage to Twin Lake which further links to Amour Lake by another portage. The Sayward Canoe Circuit is a great trip if you like the local outdoors and canoeing.

And speaking of local gems. If you haven’t already, you should check out Willow Point Reef. The lowest tide of the year so far uncovered the length of the finger of rock poking into Discovery Passage. See my pictures on page A31.

I’ve written about before but it never fails to amaze me. You’re basically get-ting a look at the undersea world. It’s well worth a visit. And kids love it.

Only certain times of the year does the tide go low enough that you can get right out to the end of the reef. It’s a bit slippery on the rocks what with all the seaweed and stuff, so be careful. I find that really bright seaweed (sea lettuce, I believe it’s called) is the slipperiest, so try to walk around it.

I try to watch where I walk, too, because you’re basically treading on liv-ing creatures. They’re hard to avoid but I try my best. I noticed Monday that there’s large patches of tiny mussels. They’re like an inch or less in length and carpet whole areas on the rock. They and the barnacles crunch under your foot so I try to find bare rock or just seaweed-covered rocks to walk.

Another magical place.

A Hanson Island man accused of killing his wife finally has a lawyer.

Traigo Andretti, 37, is charged with first degree murder and committing an indignity to a human body.

His wife, Jennifer McPherson, 41, was last seen April 29 on Hanson Island where the two

worked as caretakers at Pacific Outback Resort. Her remains were found on the island – located about eight kilometres northeast of Telegraph Cove – on May 6.

Andretti was arrested shortly after her remains were found and has been in custody since then.

He’s also been inves-tigated in Manitoba in connection with the death of a former girl-

friend, Myrna Letandre, whose remains were found May 9 in a Win-nipeg rooming house where they apparently lived together. She was last seen in October 2006.

During his br ie f appearances in Camp-bell River provincial court, Andretti has been surprisingly upbeat. However, earlier this month he was chastised

by Judge Brian Saunder-son for not getting legal counsel.

“You’re accused of murder! You understand that?” the judge asked.

On Monday, Andretti appeared by video for another court appear-ance.

He’s currently being held in custody in Vic-toria and is now repre-sented by defence lawyer Roxanne Helme.

A representative of her office asked the judge for another four weeks before Andretti’s next court appearance so they can review the police evidence.

Crown prosecutor Bruce Goddard said he expects full disclosure from the RCMP by the end of June.

Andretti’s next court appearance, by video, is scheduled for July 22.

The city is asking elec-tors whether they support having the city exchange some of its parkland with a private company.

A n A l t e r n a t i v e Approval Process is being used by the city, which means all eligible voters have the right to object to the parkland exchange using an elector response form.

Electors must reply between June 26 and August 6 at 4:30 p.m.

T he c i t y obt a i ns approval unless more than 10 per cent of the electors fill out a response form.

Eligible voters are asked whether they object to council adopting a park-land exchange bylaw which will allow the city to swap its own 723 m2 piece of park space in

the St. Ann’s block with St. Ann’s Holdings Ltd. which will, in exchange, give the city an equal size of its own property located at 100 St. Ann’s Road, to be used as city park space.

The arrangement is part of the downtown revitalization project and the construction of Sey-mour Pacific’s new head-quarters building.

More than half of the

city’s residents are eligible to take part in the Alter-native Approval Process, according to Dave Mor-ris, the city’s general manager of facilities and supply management.

“The number of eli-gible electors in the City of Campbell River is estimated to be 24,011,” Morris said. “The coun-cil for the city may proceed with the adop-tion of (the) parkland

exchange bylaw…unless, by the deadline set, at least 10 per cent (2,401) of the estimated number of electors object and indicate by signing and submitting an elector response form.”

The Community Char-ter prohibits a city from removing a portion of dedicated park land from its authority unless it receives approval to do so from the electors.

Artists, are you looking for a new spin on

creative expression? The Campbell River

Art Gallery’s Wear-able Art Fashion Show may be just what you’re looking for. The gallery has put out a call for submissions for art-ists who want to create one or more pieces for the show, with gener-ous prizes on offer in a variety of categories. The deadline for sub-missions, which should include sketches or pho-tographs, is July 2. The show is set for Saturday, Aug. 10 at the gallery.

For those not familiar with this innovative art form, wearable art is art for the human body. The format gives a passing nod to traditional fash-ion shows, but otherwise the pieces presented are better described as sculpture. Artists create their pieces, usually with a narrative theme, to be shown and performed by models. The Aug. 10 show, which will be held along with a silent auction, offers artists a

chance to compete for cash prizes and awards that include Audience Choice, Best of Show, Best Use of Recycled Materials and more.

Tickets for this extrav-agant event will go on sale in July. All proceeds go towards supporting children’s programming at the Gallery. This is the Gallery’s fourth annual Wearable Art Fashion Show and it’s sure to once again be a sellout event.

Information on how to prepare a submission is available at the Gallery or at www.crartgallery.ca under ‘Downloads.’ Entry is juried. For more information call 250-287-2261.

Deadline looms for wearable art submissionsAnnual show set for August 10 at Campbell River Art Gallery

Photo by Sandra Chow

The Paper Bag Princess,’ was created by artist Amanda Smetana out of sewing pattern paper, and performed by Meghan Dutot in the 2012 Wearable Art Fashion Show.

The Campbell River Arts Council will be showcas-ing its Crow Theatre in the Canada Day Parade.

Crow Theatre is designed to be an outdoor street theatre, with multiple applications for commu-nity engagement. The Arts Council has contracted Heather Gordon Murphy of Raincoast Productions to guide the development of Crow Theatre. Future plans include the performing of various street antics around the city, alongside the development of a Crow Crier (Town Crier), Crow Cops, a Puppet Theatre and Educational Crows working with various grade level classrooms on social justice issues.

Crow Theatre also aims to have value added benefits for the community of Campbell River in that it pro-motes cultural tourism and supports current cultural initiatives in the City. This project is sponsored by a B.C. Arts Council ABCD Grant.

Crow Theatre has tremendous potential to be inclu-sive of all cultural narratives. An extremely intelligent bird, crows are interpreted as both serious and playful, a joy or a pest depending on context. The Crows can have multiple personalities, ranging from the Shake-spearean ‘Fool’ (acting as the conscience of the com-munity) to slapstick entertainment to pantomime to educational teachers. Scripted vignettes will be designed to be flexible enough to adapt to various performing contexts as well as to the skills of the per-formers.

Crow Theatre aims to create a ‘branding’ aspect of Campbell River. The Crows visibility on the streets or popping up in surprising places, has the potential to become a presence that contributes to the positive experience of living in or visiting our City.

“Did you see the Crows?” is a question they hope to instill within locals and tourists alike. Watch for them in the Canada Day Parade.

Man’s oldest companion is a bird that

needs no introduc-tion even though it is shunned by many.

When we think of a pigeon it is often with negative thoughts as they tend to be a dirty nui-sance. Records dating back to ancient Roman and Egyptian times show that pigeons were an important food source. The young birds – “squabs” – were a delicacy. Nothing was wasted especially their high nitrogen waste that was used to fertilize their crops.

It was evident to these ancient people that the pigeons were easily tamed and could also be trained to complete tasks. They discovered the pigeon’s natural instinct to return to their home if they were taken to a different loca-tion.

This talent was then fine tuned and they became carrier pigeons delivering messages to other towns. Distances that would normally take weeks to cover on foot now could be reached in a matter of

days. Carrier pigeons con-

tinued to be used as delivery birds in more modern times and were invaluable in times of conflict where they were sent to deliver sensitive,

secret mate-rial.

Homing pigeons are still used today. Their homing abil-ity now has a new purpose as they have become rac-ing pigeons – a hobby and

sport that can see them cover vast distances. How can they find their way home from a loca-tion they have never been to? This is a never-ending question and has many theories, some have been studied and seem factual but there are no fast answers and new ideas abound.

Young pigeons are strongly imprinted on their lofts or homes soon after hatching, They are then taken to a new location and released to find their way home. Gradu-ally, the distances are increased until they can meet the required dis-tance of the race.

A successful racing pigeon must be tena-cious, possess great

speed and endurance and strong orientation skills. To navigate their way home, the pigeons use a combination of magnetic poles, astro-nomic and landmark location and olfac-tory location (sense of smell). The latter seems farfetched but in one study the birds had the olfactory nerve severed and they failed to return home.

Six years ago MARS rescued a racing pigeon that appeared to have hitched a ride on a Coast Guard boat that was en route from Haida Gwaii. The pigeon landed on the mast then promptly fell to the desk totally exhausted. It was established from leg bands that the bird came from Japan.

Pigeon racing has become a huge sport in Asian countries and also a very lucrative one where they bet on the race results.

If the birds fail to return, they are usually deemed a failure and abandoned.

In this pigeon’s case, its navigational skills were rewarded for covering thousands of miles. After quarantine and much paper work, the trans-pacific flier was returned to Japan by more conventional means, namely a plane.

Last month MARS encountered another lost pigeon. Once again the bird had an epic journey. The pigeon was thin and severely emaci-ated and loaded with a parasite that attacks weakened birds.

Following wildlife pro-tocol, the pigeon spent the month in isolation at MARS recovering from its ordeal and shedding the parasites.

Gradually its strength and weight returned to normal.

The bands on the pigeon’s legs revealed that it was Japanese. One band was a mag-

netic chip that recorded departure and arrival time back to the loft during race day. The other leg had informa-tion about the owner with a cell phone num-ber.

Through a friend of one of our volunteers who is living in Japan, we managed to contact the owner of the pigeon who indicated he did not want to go to the expense of shipping the bird home.

After being declared as a migratory bird, the pigeon was able to stay in Canada and was adopted by Doug Chad-

wick, president of the Nanaimo racing pigeon club.

Doug indicated he would use the pigeon as a breeding pigeon and may at some time race

it again. When asked about the status of rac-ing clubs and pigeon fanciers, Doug replied that, unfortunately, this is a dying hobby.

Raising and racing pigeons requires a large piece of property to house the birds (he has 130). They are also high maintenance taking a lot of patience and training. Unfortunately, he said today’s young people are more interested in high tech hobbies.

Interestingly enough, homing pigeons in my mind are skilled GPS technicians.

On another note, we continue to get numerous calls about “orphaned” fawns. Most have been kidnapped. Please stay away from the fawns and call us to report the location. A doe will not come back to her fawn if half the neighbourhood is watching.

The Campbell River Bonsai Club will present its annual Bonsai Display at Sybil Andrew’s Cot-tage on Saturday, June 29 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Admission is free.

Bonsai (pronounced “bone-sigh”) is the ancient art and science of growing a tree in a pot. Almost any tree can be coaxed into miniatur-ization, through careful pruning of both roots and branches, as long as

the leaves will reduce in size.

Bonsai Club members meet to share informa-tion with each other about the best kind of potting mix, watering regime, fertilization, spe-cial tools and pots. They are pleased to share this knowledge with the pub-lic at the Show.

Ask questions to any member as you admire the variety of Bonsai trees.

“One call, and

we’ll do it all”

Well, Bike to Work Week is over

for another year and another great success it was.

Now that it’s over, the weather is sure to improve (it always rains on BTWW) and with the summer nearly upon us and more people out on their bikes rid-ing on the roads, a little refresher on the basics of road riding is in order, so here we go...

Ride on the right: Ride on the road and on the right, in the same direction as traffic. Some people still think that cyclists are like pedestrians and should ride facing traffic or on the sidewalk. This is illegal! It is against the law to ride on sidewalks, unless it is a specific bike lane like Dogwood Street or the Rotary Sea-wall. The main danger points are driveways and street crossings where sidewalk cyclists sur-prise drivers and pedes-trians by appearing from unexpected directions. Bicycle police and para-medics are permitted by law to ride on sidewalks, but for the rest of us, we have the same rights and duties as operators of motor vehicles. The same rules of right-of-way, traffic signs and signals, apply to cyclists as apply to motorists. PERIOD.

How far to the right should you ride? Don’t hug the curb, or ride too close to the edge of the road. You always need some extra space to move around road hazards like glass, gravel and drains without run-ning the risk of hitting the curb or going off the edge of the road. As a general rule, ride about one meter from the curb.

Road surface hazards: Keep an eye on the road well ahead of you to see if there are potholes, gravel, glass, drains or other hazards coming up. If you have to move over into traffic to avoid these, do a shoulder check and use a hand signal if necessary. To swerve into traffic can be extremely dangerous. To make riding safer for you and other cyclists, report unsafe road con-ditions to the City or Highways Department as soon as possible.

Parked cars (see photo above): Ride no closer than one meter from parked cars to avoid being hit by an opening door. The doors

of some vehicles open really wide. If you can see that the car is occu-pied, be particularly careful. Where cars are parked inter-mittently, ride in a straight line instead of swerving in and out between the parked cars. This increases your visibility and predict-ability for drivers.

Passing on the right: This can be dangerous. Most often it is best to move into the middle of the lane with the rest of traffic. Many drivers don’t look to their right before turning right and if you happen to be in their way, you are going to collide! Be really care-

ful when there are large panel vans or trucks. Semi trailers need a lot of space to make turns and many cyclists have

been crushed or run over with this maneuver.

Intersec-tions: Most cyclist/driver collisions occur at intersections. To minimize the dangers you should

observe the following rules at intersections and turn lanes. When you approach an inter-section with several lanes, choose the lane with the arrow point-ing in the direction you want to go. You may get cut off by turning cars if you are not in the

appropriate lane. If you cannot make it across traffic to position your-self in the correct lane, you have the choice to dismount and walk your bike in the crosswalk instead. Always enter intersections either ahead of or behind the vehicle in your lane. You may not see the turn sig-nals of a vehicle directly beside you and the driver may not see you.

Be Alert: Keep an eye and ear on what is going on around you, be especially aware of what is going on behind you and listen for cars approaching from behind, listening to music with earphones is downright dangerous and even more so in heavy traffic.

As a footnote, last weekend, local cyclist

Krista Houston was leaving Vancouver rid-ing her bicycle on a nine day marathon ride to Banff to raise money for Cystic Fibrosis. You think you have tough rides some days? Good luck Krista! That’s it for this week, ride safe and enjoy your bike!

Primer on road riding basics

Ride no closer than one metre from parked cars to avoid being hit by an opening door.

As of noon on Monday, the size of open fires is restricted in most of the Coastal Fire Centre to help prevent human-caused wildfires and protect the public.

This prohibition will remain in effect until Oct. 15, 2013 or the public is otherwise notified.

This prohibition covers all BC Parks, Crown and private lands within the Coastal Fire Centre, with the exception of the Skeena-Queen Charlotte Regional District and the area known as the “Fog Zone”. A map of the affected areas is available online at: http://bit.ly/120s5c9

Specific activities affected by this prohibition include: the burning of any material, piled or unpiled, smaller than two metres in height and three metres in width, including burning bar-rels; the burning of stubble or grass over an area less than 2,000 square metres (0.2 hectares); the use of fireworks, sky lanterns or burning barrels of any size or description. This prohibition does not ban campfires that are a half-metre high by a half-metre wide or smaller and does not apply to cooking stoves that use gas, propane or briquettes.

Anyone lighting a campfire must maintain a fire-guard by removing flammable debris from around the campfire area and have a hand tool or at least eight litres of water nearby to properly extinguish the fire. For information about open burning and tips on making responsible burning decisions, please read the open burning guides at: http://bcwildfire.ca/hprScripts/WildfireNews/Bans.asp.

This prohibition covers all BC Parks, Crown lands and private lands, but it does not apply within the boundaries of a local government that has wildfire prevention bylaws in place and is ser-viced by a fire department.

The Coastal Fire Centre covers all of the area west of the height of land on the Coast Mountain Range from the U.S.-Canada border at Manning Park, the Sunshine Coast, the Lower Mainland, Vancouver Island, the Gulf Islands and Haida Gwaii.

In the mood for some mattress mayhem?

Perhaps even a little ‘bed-on collision’?

Then set your alarm for 1 p.m. Monday, July 1 and don’t hit snooze – you’ll lose. There’s no bedside manner required for this pajama party that’ll shake you out of your slumber and have you shedding your slip-pers and rippin’ your one-sies.

Due to great public support, this event has raised more than $20,000 for the Campbell River Hospital Foundation and the Campbell River Rotary Club. This year the Hospital Foundation will be raising money towards the Argon Laser

System for Ophthalmol-ogy and the Daybreak Rotary is raising money towards community projects.

They invite you to join them by participating in a community-building event that brings together individuals, groups and businesses for a day of racing custom decorated beds down a 150-metre course on Shoppers Row.

Participants must be 18 years of age or older and the helmet rule will be in effect for the team mem-ber sitting on the bed.

There will be two race lanes; and racing will be side by side in timed heats. Medals will be awarded to the win-ners as well as the best

decorated bed/team and to the team who raises the most in fun-draising pledges. T-Mar Industries Ltd. was last year’s bed race winners. Quinsam Coal has won the fundraising trophy for the last two years in a row. Both teams will be back to compete once again this year.

There is still time to register your team for this year’s event. Call the foundation office at 250-850-2418 or www.canadadaybedrace.ca for more information.

This Canada Day, Shoppers Row in Camp-bell River is the place to be for some labori-ous laughter. Don’t get caught napping.

This is your wake-up call for the 2013 Canada Day Bed Race

The Rotary Club team were fast but not fast enough during last year’s Canada Day Bed Race but they didn’t mind because all the effort went to support the Hospital Foundation.

Supportive Living SupportedSeniors at the Willow Point Supportive Living Society will get a boost in their activities thanks to a donation from The Rotary Club of Campbell River. Seen here are, left to right: Resident Nadine Beitel, Rotary Club President Todd Peachy, Resident Dorothy Goodwin, Program Coordina-tor Cathy White, and Manager Terry Fulton. The money will be used in programs aimed at keeping the seniors as active as possible and engaged in social activities.


Thinking of buying your fi rst home? One of your most important decisions will be choosing the right type of mortgage to make the purchase. With the current low interest rates, you may believe that almost any mortgage product is a low-risk choice. But, keep in mind that interest rates could be higher when that mortgage comes up for renewal.

Here’s what could happen: You have a $200,000 mortgage with a fi ve year fi xed rate of 4% interest, amortized over 25 years, with a monthly payment of approximately $1,052. After fi ve years, you will have to renew your mortgage. Even though your mortgage balance is now only $174,107, if the fi xed interest rate at that time is 6%, and your remaining amortization period is 20 years, your monthly payment now goes up to $1,240; if the fi xed rate is 7%, your monthly

payment jumps to $1,339 a month.

Will you be able to manage an increase like that? Make a very careful assessment of “how much house you can afford”. Look at potential income and lifestyle changes, like starting a family or increasing its size, and decide now if you’ll be able to afford a future increase in your mortgage payments.

Next, decide which mortgage type, fi xed rate or variable, is best for you. Your choice depends on your personal situation.

A fi xed-rate mortgage offers the security of a locked-in interest rate for the term you choose, typically fi ve years, and the same mortgage payment for the term – providing peace of mind and predicable budgeting.

A variable rate mortgage usually offers a lower interest rate than the fi xed-rate type but the

interest rate is linked to the prime rate which will fl uctuate and can impact your total interest costs and your monthly mortgage payment. Many lenders will allow you to lock a variable rate mortgage into a fi xed-rate mortgage during your term.

A blended rate mortgage is a combination of fi xed and variable rate fi nancing, combining the benefi ts and risks of each mortgage type.

Your best mortgage choice should be based on your personal fi nancial objectives and overall fi nancial plan. You’ll get the best advice for what’s best for you from your professional advisor.

Ask the Dentist

Answer: Fluoride has long been a topic of debate and although fl uoride use has its critics, the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention consider the introduction of fl uoride to improve oral health one of the top 10 great public health achievements of the 20th century.

Fluoride has a very unique property in that it can replace Calcium in our enamel. So when our teeth are exposed to acid (which is how decay starts) the acid leaches (pulls) calcium out of our enamel thereby weakening our teeth. Fluoride, when available, replaces the calcium in our enamel and makes our teeth more resistant to acid. So, in essence, fl uoride makes our teeth stronger because acid from bacteria won’t be as effective at decaying our teeth. It’s still very important to brush and fl oss because, even with fl uoride replacing our calcium, our teeth are still susceptible to decay. So 2-3 minutes twice a day for brushing and fl ossing every day is still the Canadian Dental Association recommendation.

If you have a question you would like answered please email [email protected]

Question: Why is fl uoride so important?

Sayward School received a $2,900 environmental grant from the Toronto Dominion Friends of the Environment Foundation (TD FEF).

Founded by TD Bank Group in 1990, TD FEF is a national charity that funds environmental proj-ects across Canada. With the support of more than 140,000 donors, TD FEF has provided more than $60 million to over 21,000 environmental projects and programs. The Foundation supports a wide range of environmental initiatives, with a primary funding focus on:n Environmental educationn Urban greening and enhancing biodiversityn Energy conservationSayward School plans to use the $2,900 grant to

extend and enhance the nature trail that students and teachers began building last year. When com-pleted, the trail will circle the entire school property, extending around the school building and through a forested area, for a total distance of approximately 600 metres.

Interpretive signs created by the students will high-light indigenous plant species along the way. Benches, shrubs, and decorative stones will also enhance the trail. Work on the project will involve all students, staff, and also community members.

It is expected that the trail will be used and enjoyed by the students and the community for many years to come. The project is expected to begin in the fall and be completed within the 2013-14 school year.

Sayward School hits the trail with TD grant

Sayward students get to work! The existing portion of the trail at Sayward School is already well-used by the students, who are eager to help with some trimming and clean-up (from left): Ethan Jewel; Spencer Nicole; Mitch Claybourn; Keith Bourne; and Principal Marion Waters.

The Home Depot Canada Foundation’s purpose is to give back to communities by supporting affordable housing for needy people.

This year, the local Home Depot Canada store has chosen Willow Point Supportive Living Society to support with their “Buy a Hammer, Build A Com-munity” fundraiser. All of the funds raised by the pur-chase of a $2 paper hammer at the store tills will go to the society. The campaign started on 30 May and runs through July 3.

The store that raises the largest amount of funds in their “District” will result in a bonus going to the soci-ety that they have chosen to support.

As of last Sunday, the Campbell River store had raised the largest amount so far in their District. They are competing with Home Depot Canada Store’s in Courtenay, Nanaimo, Duncan, Victoria, Victoria-Saa-nich, Squamish, Vancouver Cambie, and Park Royal-West Vancouver.

Lets help them beat out the larger stores in the big-ger city areas and show them all what generous and supportive people we have here in Campbell River. Donations can be made at the Home Depot Canada Store in Campbell River, securely online at Canada-helps.com, or by check mailed to WPSLS, 100-142 Larwood Road, Campbell River, V9W 1S2.

PAUL RUDAN/THE MIRRORPerfect hair...always!Kerry Fraser was always known as one of the best referees in the National Hockey League, but he was better known for his immaculate coiffure. Now retired from reffing the big boys, Fraser was in Campbell River on Monday night to officiate the charity hockey match between the NHL Oldtimers and the local Law Enforcement club. The undermanned Law Enforcement team weren’t much of a match for the Oldtimers which included Hall of Famers Bryan Trot-tier and Glenn Anderson. Even a couple lopsided trades didn’t help the Cops who fell 17-12...or something like that. See more photos on Page A31.

The Subway Ravens Peewee B lacrosse team is one step closer to earning a provincial berth.

The Ravens traveled to Sydney on the weekend to take on the Peninsula Panthers in a best-of-three series.

In game one, the Ravens controlled play and were up three goals by the end of the first period. Peninsula responded with a power-play goal, but the Ravens never looked back and

ended up walking away with a 7-3 win led by Heydon Campbell who

scored his first hat-trick of the season.

In the second game, the Ravens again dominated every aspect of play while the Panthers struggled.

Several Campbell River players posted goals and assists in 13-1 beat-down. The Ravens were led by Reid Matthews and Carson Foy who both notched hat-tricks.

In the next round of playdowns, the Ravens face the Saanich Tigers. The winner of that series

will secure one of the two provincials.

Island Car Buyer spon-sored a night full of action-packed racing at Saratoga Speedway and the best main event in the Bomber car class this season.

Accompanying the Bombers on Saturday night were the IMCA Modifieds, Dwarf cars and the motorcycles. Two heats and one main event were given to all classes which made for some great, tight racing.

In the IMCA Modified division, #48 Rob Ryan dominated the field, win-ning both heats, and led all 15 laps of their feature

race in taking the check-ered flag for the sweep.

A new driver, Keegan, surprised everybody by winning the first two heats in the motorcycle class. Keegan also led the first four laps on the 15-lap main event, but #9 Jim Deas, who arrived late, passed Keegan in the hairpin and wouldn’t look back from there, winning his second straight motorcycle main event of the season.

Nine Dwarf cars hit the track on Saturday. #89 Jim Meeres dominated the first 10-lap heat, but his son, #11 Mike Meeres – who last time broke his axle early in the night – dominated the night

from there, winning the other heat.

Mike also held the lead through all 20 laps of the main event, holding off #24 Dave Emmerson who was right on his bumper for the last five laps.

In the Bomber car class, points leader #72 Stewart Lee continued his winning ways. After winning the second heat, Lee would battle #97 Mike Dionne for all 25 laps on the main event.

#46 Travis Stevenson, who was racing a bar-rowed car, led the first 14 laps until Dionne and Lee would both get by him. Lee and Dionne then raced side by side for the

remaining 10 laps, with Lee barely edging out Dionne to take his third straight main event in what was the best main event of the year for the Bomber cars. Stevenson would manage to hold off the rest of the field to take third place.

Extra laps: This weekend, June 29-30, the fastest cars on the Island, Wilroc Sprints, will be making their first appearance at Saratoga this year.

There will also be an amazing firework extrav-aganza on both nights. Sunday night will also be feature an amazing car jump performed by Alex Benyuk.

The IMCA Modifieds round a corner at Saratoga Speedway during Saturday night’s racing action.
