We at the PENINSULA NEWS REVIEW aspire to be objective in our coverage of the news, especially at election time.
In the pursuit of that goal, and to remove any perceptions of conflict or bias on the part of our readers, we have made a temporary switch involving editor Laura Lavin.
Lavin, who is engaged to North Saanich council candidate Ted Daly, will be heading downtown to work with Black Press newspapers in Oak Bay, Victoria and Saanich for the duration of the civic election campaign.
In her place, Oak Bay News editor Don Descoteau will be serving as NEWS REVIEW editor until the elections are completed.
Readers with any questions about coverage are encouraged to call Descoteau at 250-656-1151, or email him at [email protected].

The site of the former McTavish elementary school could be used to help to preserve history. The site is being considered for use as an offsite storage facility by the Royal BC Museum.
The proposal went to a public meeting on Mon-day, Oct. 24, where people learned the museum wants to construct a purpose-built, cool and cold storage facility for archival (film and negative) collections and other environmentally-sensitive items. The new facility would measure 45,000 to 50,000 square feet and be built on the non-Agricul-tural Land Reserve portion of the property, near the road. This would be a similar footprint to the existing school.
Joan Axford, secretary-treasurer for School Dis-trict 63, said there was a good turnout of local residents to the meeting. “They wanted to hear the plans, but their concerns were not so much about the musuem itself, but that whatever is built there fits into the area. The ALR land is important, and they wanted to know if there was a way the

Susan Mason is seeking a fourth term on Central Saanich council. She sees a wide scope for sustainable progress, including indus-trial, agricultural and tourism opportunities.
“We need to take a more proactive role in our eco-nomic development,” she said. She sees a need for a more “open for business” attitude and supports a proactive and promo-tional approach for the district as key to attract-ing business, industry and tourism. Her vision for the Keating industrial park is for “a vibrant work/live envi-ronment including affordable hous-ing for workers and young people.”
She is also a strong proponent of the ‘buy local’ movement, and gives priority to taking steps that will sus-tain, promote and protect farming in Central Saanich. She said she antici-pates the completion of the district’s first Agricultural Area Plan and the formation of an Agricultural Advi-sory Committee. “It’s only common sense to have farmers advising us on farming issues,” she said.
Having world-renowned attrac-tions such as The Butchart Gardens on their doorstep, along with other attractions, farms and wineries, Mason said, gives Central Saanich “boundless opportunities for tour-ism. I see enormous potential for culinary, wine and cycling tourism here.”
Transportation is a major concern. Mason said bus service, in particu-lar, presents challenges for seniors
and youth in Central Saanich. “I want to see transportation and safety issues addressed,” she said. “Includ-
ing slowing traffic on local roads and continuing to push on the Highway 17 Strategy with our neigh-bours and the provincial government.”
She said during her last term, concerns voiced by residents prompted her to have the issue of resi-dential densification put forward for more public input. Other issues she would like to see recon-sidered is owner occu-
pancy of homes with secondary suites, as well as the recording of council votes.
She said the next council will have some important decisions to make, while seeing the retirement of some senior members of district staff. “Now, more than ever, we need expe-rienced, consistent, solid leadership as we guide our municipality through the next three years,” she said. “Given the revenue and infrastructure chal-lenges facing us the number one pri-ority has to be the district’s financial sustainability. We need to increase our tax base and maintain service levels. Taxpayers’ dollars need to be budgeted and spent wisely.”
“We need a stable, balanced coun-cil that will make common sense decisions ensuring that we maximize the opportunities open to us and find solutions to the challenges we are facing,” she said.

Federal Green Party leader Elizabeth May said she is satis-fied the Harper government isn’t planning to tear up the Saanich-Gulf Islands riding to create a new South Island riding out of traditionally Conservative neigh-bourhoods.
A story in the riding’s Conser-vative Party newsletter Coast-lines suggested the govern-ment will manipulate the riding boundaries as part of planned federal seat redistribution. May brought up the matter during a House of Commons question period recently and was told her fears about what she called boundary “gerrymandering” were unfounded.
Government house leader Peter Van Loan told her the fed-eral statute governing redistribution sets out a process that is “run on a non-partisan basis by independent com-missions.”
B.C. is expected to gain at least five seats under redistribution.
May said she found the answer “satisfac-tory.”
She said the Coast-lines story, written by Bruce Hallsor — a Sidney lawyer and the riding’s election readi-ness chairperson — was a bit unsettling.
“Southern Vancouver Island will receive at least one addi-tional seat as a result of redis-
tribution,” Hallsor wrote in the newsletter.
In order to create the extra seat, Hallsor speculated that Saan-ich-Gulf Islands could drop the area south of McKenzie Avenue, the Gulf Islands or Gor-don Head, or by losing some combination of these three areas.
“If you removed all three of these areas, and only had the area from Sidney to Broad-
mead, we would have won the last election,” Hallsor wrote. “Any likely redistribution scenario will either make the results of the last election closer or make (the Conservatives) the winners.”[email protected]

All the candidates for council in Sidney have one thing in common; not one would fess up to which mayoral candidate they’ll endorse on Nov. 19.
The candidates were responding to a ques-tion during the Sidney Business Association’s all candidates forum on Oct. 25. The question was a two-parter that asked mayoral candi-dates Jack Barker and Larry Cross (seated in alphabetical order on stage in the Bodine Family Hall) what their vision of Beacon Ave-nue would be in five years.
“We had a vision a long time ago and it came true,” Barker said, adding that to main-tain that, council needs to be more flexible with businesses looking to expand, or reno-vate.
“It is looking a little tired,” Cross said. He would like to see it “as attractive as Carmel, California.”
The follow-up to the question asked council candidates which vision they endorsed.
“Both visions have merit,” said Mike Bar-wick. “They weren’t that much different.”
Incumbent Mervyn Lougher Goodey noted that both mayoral candidates appear to love Sidney. He said flat out: “I ain’t gonna choose.”
Amalgamation was another question that got similar responses across the board; it will happen someday, but not all 13 municipalities in one district.
“I don’t think it will be one, it’ll be three,” Barker said.
“I’d like to see the business case for it,” Cross said. “I would want to think very care-fully and see what it would mean for Sidney.”
“Amalgamation is really a community dis-cussion we have got to have,” said Melissa Hailey.
Tim Chad noted that the three Peninsula districts already work together in areas like sewer, water and emergency services.
“We’re actually halfway there, we have a regional board,” Lougher Goodey said, point-ing out the CRD.
“If it worked it would be a great idea,” said Steve Price. “Time and time again amalgama-tion has been shown to raise costs.”
Lois Weaver echoed Loveless, commenting that economics should not be the only factor, but should include the unique characters of the Peninsula communities.
Top topics during individual questions at the forum surrounded parking, development, business support and affordable housing — many interconnected.
“There’s only one way to deal with (park-ing), that’s to go up,” Barwick said at one point. “We’re not talking 10 storeys.”
“The more people attracted to Sidney … the better it is for my business, the better it is for the community, the better it is for other business owners,” Hailey said.
A handful of questions aimed at incumbent council members questioned costs at the Town of Sidney.
“We basically run a $22 million business … we’re at the top of the CRD in terms of doing things properly,” said Price. A senti-ment shared by Cross, who added that the town is among the lowest in tax increases across the regional district.
Another asked whether Barker could work without conflict as a realtor and developer.
“I’m not a developer,” he answered. “We’re all in conflict at some time.
“I do support our Official Community Plan,” he added, a phrase he repeated throughout the evening.
The loss of a visitor information centre at Iroquois Park came up a handful of times. The signage now directs traffic to the information centre near the Mary Winspear Centre where there’s ample parking, Lougher-Goodey said in one response. As well, concerns over parking for boat trailers at Tulista Park were raised.
One question directed at council candidate Chad raised an issue addressed in the ‘letters
to the editor’ of the NEWS REVIEW recently, ques-tioning the one-way status of Beacon Avenue.
“Maybe it’s time people got their say at a public hearing,” Chad said, noting it’s a deci-sion that was made 10 years ago.
How to attract young professionals and business to town came up a couple of times.
“We have to look at core issues, parking to
sustain more people and housing to sustain more people,” Crispin said.
“Encourage businesses to find a home here. And a lot are small employers with small staff,” Barwick said. “No business, no employ-ment, no town.”
Cross and Barker again answered the vision question during the three-hour meeting, though this time with a vision to 2020.
“Very similar to what it is now,” Barker said. “We have to work hard together to bring that character back because we’re losing it.”
“I want to see the spirit of our town main-tained … as well as its physical appearance,” Cross said.
The election for mayor and councillors will be held on Saturday, Nov. 19 with two advance voting opportunites on Nov. 9 and Nov. 16. All voting at Town of Sidney municipal hall, 2440 Sidney Ave., from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Those expecting to be absent on these voting days may request a mail ballot by contacting the town’s administration department at 250-656-1139. School District No. 63 Board trustee Jane Husband was acclaimed.

Sidney mayoral and council candidates answer voters’ questions at the Sidney Business Association all candidates forum.
Sidney candidates questioned
community could have access to that land. I think, with this project, they can.”
If approved, the proposed new building could be up to three sto-ries, which is about half a storey higher than the current school. It would possibly need a parking vari-ance to be granted by the District of North Saanich. The plans include 10 parking stalls, plus loading stalls. The public would be allowed to use the facility, but it is anticipated that public traffic would be limited.
School District 63 representa-tives say there are several advan-tages to the sale of the property. The ALR land would be maintained, and sale to the Royal BC Museum would ensure the property remains in public hands.
Proceeds from the land sale would remain in the local capital accounts of the school district for educational equipment, and the Royal BC Museum would pay taxes to the District of North Saanich.
The school district has been attempting unsuccessfully to lease the property since the school closed in 2008. McTavish, Sans-bury and Greenglade elementary schools were all closed because of declining enrolment, and later Sansbury and McTavish students were combined into the KELSET elementary school, near Panorama Recreation Centre. The district believes that, based on enrolment projections, there will be no need for a new school on the McTavish elementary school site.
“The building, as it is, is a liability for the district. Some parts of the school are very old, and the cost of upkeep is quite high,” Axford said. “I think the museum is very keen about this project, and they want to be good neighbours.”
Surveys were made available to the public at the Oct. 24 meet-ing, and there is more opportunity for the public to have their say through the district website (www.sd63.bc.ca). With that public input, the application will be sent to the Minister of Education for approval to proceed with the sale of the property. Axford said the board of education hopes to forward the proposal through Shared Services BC in November.

As the dramatic voice of Ken Lavigne flooded the hall, an emo-tional Jo Campbell stood and embraced her children and grand-children.
Lavigne sang Time to Say Good-bye to conclude a celebration of the life of Thrifty Foods co-founder Alex Campbell Sr. on Sunday, evok-ing tears from not only Campbell’s family, including his wife, Jo, but a vast number of the 1,200-plus people who attended.
The crowd mourned a man described as an intelligent entre-preneur, an avid boater and a father with a sense of humour by speakers at the event — friends and business associates who got to know Campbell over many years.
Campbell died Oct. 11. He was 70.
CTV Vancouver Island news
anchor Hudson Mack hosted the celebration. Lavigne’s four songs drew many tears from the audi-ence, especially Danny Boy, which
was one of Campbell’s favourites. Local piper James Troy’s music brought out tissues as well.
Held at the Victoria Conference
Centre, the celebration was dec-orated by large arrangements of white orchids, irises and roses. Before the hall filled for the 1
p.m. event, people stood and talked, many hugged each other and made introductions to new acquaintances.
The celebration was just as Campbell would have wanted it, Mack said, with laughs along the way. Friends remembered failed fishing feats with Campbell, who was nicknamed “the smile in the aisle” for his presence at his Thrifty Foods stores.
Mack read from his speech that Campbell’s three children were “proud of his honesty, integrity and confidence.” Campbell wasn’t one to lose his cool in business or at home, he didn’t make rash deci-sions and was unfailingly loyal.
Having lost his own father at a young age, Mack shared a per-sonal note: “Death can end a life, but it can never extinguish love or end a relationship.”
The Campbell family left the cel-ebration after dozens of hugs from friends in the room, all of whom had come to pay respects to a gen-erous philanthropist and success-ful business owner who touched countless lives on the Island.

“Since early on in my life I wanted to make a positive difference in the world,” said Sidney coun-cil hopeful Melissa Hai-ley.
She is an experienced municipal councillor, having served in North Cowichan, briefly hold-ing the title as the young-est woman elected to office in Canada.
“When my term ended I was looking for a change. Sidney, with its picturesque setting by the sea attracted my attention,” she said. She founded A Paddle in the Park Kayaking in the Van Isle Marina.
“Sidney has been extremely wel-coming and a beautiful place. My
business has been doing well and I want to give back to this commu-nity,” she said. “I bring a youthful and experi-enced perspective to council. Having sat on a large urban/rural munic-ipal council, I feel that I have valuable expertise that I could share on Sid-ney council. In decision making, I take a long term view and a com-mon sense approach.”

EDITORIAL
The smart meter installation van arrived on my street last week, as BC Hydro’s smart grid project heads toward the halfway mark.
This system will not only detect outages, electricity loss and theft, it enables a voluntary time-of-use system where users can get a discount by shifting consumption to low-peak times. You could even set up wind or solar generation that the meter would record and subtract from your bill.
But apparently no one wants to talk about that. Black Press papers continue to run letters with exaggerated or false claims that stoke baseless fear of radio waves.
Where is this coming from? I’m grateful to the anonymous smart-meter foe who started sending me updates from “Citizens for Safe Technology,” a loose collection of U.S. and Canadian activists that claims to include doctors, lawyers and other professionals.
Not much is professional about the Canadian content on their website.
A video starts with a juvenile union parody showing executives plotting to sell BC Hydro to General Electric. Then it moves to an apparently serious interview with Bill Vander Zalm, who expands on his earlier conspiracy theory about the harmonized sales tax being part of a European Union plot for world
domination.Vander Zalm asserts that smart
meters and appliances create such a powerful surveillance network, “they’ll even know what you’re
cooking.”There are those who
claim smart meters can tell what channel your TV is on, but this is the first I’ve heard about them detecting whether you’re having eggs or oatmeal for breakfast.
And who might “they” be?
“The big picture is of course that we’re moving to globalization,” Vander Zalm intones. “Eventually
we’ll be governed out of Brussels, Belgium or someplace like that. And this all ties into that. They can monitor what’s happening anywhere in the world. It’s Big Brother. We’ll be totally controlled.”
He stops just short of what I’ll call the Full Tinfoil, a belief that these radio waves control minds directly.
Wildlife artist Robert Bateman also makes an ass of himself in a brief video, where he describes hiring someone to come in and detect “hot” wiring in his Saltspring Island mansion. (A surprising number of self-appointed smart meter experts sell measuring and “shielding” services.)
A reader sent me a local newspaper commentary by Nelson-Creston MLA Michelle Mungall, basically a vague summary of NDP
talking points about smart meters being too expensive and a possible health threat.
This is interesting, because the City of Nelson owns its own power utility, which started installing wireless meters in 2004. They finished last year, with no protest.
I asked Mungall why. She was on the city council that chose a different model, a “drive-by” meter. They broadcast readings every 15 seconds and still need meter readers, who no longer have get out of their trucks.
BC Hydro’s meters signal only three or four times a day, but one of the often-repeated false claims about them is that they secretly transmit much more often with some sort of damaging energy pulses. And yet these granola-loving West Kootenay folks cheerfully endure a 24/7 bombardment of what are essentially brief cell phone signals.
Mungall said Nelson council specifically rejected a smart grid system, “because of the cost.” Somehow retaining meter readers saves the city money.
She noted that rural parts of her constituency are serviced by BC Hydro, and some people are very concerned.
I’ll bet they are. Not just in West Kootenay, but a few other remote areas known for production of B.C.’s number one cash crop.

CBC takes national pulse
This week officially marks the 75th anniversary of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, a national icon that continues to prove that news and culture can be cool.
The CBC is a gem that all of us can treasure, and in very personal ways. While it offers a wide variety of programming on radio and television, designed to suit varying tastes, it stops short of trying to be all things to all people. Instead, it sticks to its mandate of presenting the best this country has to offer, along with the inevitable warts.
When CBC Victoria opened 13 years ago, it only enhanced the appeal of the national network, offering more localized content and further forging a link between Canada’s three coasts. The public broadcaster continues to rank at or near the top of listenership in the Capital Region, no doubt for its combination of local, regional and national information and entertainment. Where else can you tune in and hear everything from in-depth news interviews and musical retrospectives to comedy and even the odd serialized drama?
There are people who believe taxpayers shouldn’t be funding the public broadcaster when not everyone watches or listens. But the CBC remains one of the few institutions we can trust to remain as truly Canadian as hockey, politeness and beavers.
That national thread is something we need to cultivate and embrace.
Report cards not for administratorsNews that B.C. teachers will likely not be
issuing fully filled-out report cards is troubling.Not only are letter grades a critical way for
parents to confirm how their children are progressing, teacher comments often indicate such intangibles as work habits, citizenship and social interaction.
Report cards are not merely administrative, as the teachers’ union would have us believe. They give parents confirmation of information heard in conversations with both teachers and their children, and must be kept separate from work-to-rule guidelines.
Not much professional content is on the Citizens for Safe Technology website.

The British Columbia Ferry Commission, the independent regulator of BC Ferries, has been mandated by the provincial government to review the Coastal Ferry Act and to make recommendations on potential changes to the Act which would better enable the commissioner to balance the financial sustainability of the ferry operator and the interest of ferry users. The commissioner has been conducting public consultation meetings in coastal communities served by BC Ferries and is inviting additional input on a number of key issues described in a series of discussion papers.
These issues will be considered by the commissioner during his review of the Act and deal with interests of ferry users, financial sustainability objectives, the balance between the two, price cap regulation and cross-subsidization. Visit www.bcferrycommission.com/reports-press/whats-new/coastal-ferry-act-review/ for copies of these discussion papers. Comments on these papers or any other issue relevant to the Coastal Ferry Act review can be e-mailed to [email protected] or mailed to BC Ferry Commission, RPO Hillside, Box 35119, Victoria BC, V8T 5G2. For further information on the review, please visit www.bcferrycommission.com. Deadline for comments or submissions is December 5, 2011.

What you’re saying at PENINSULANEWSREVIEW.COM
RE: Sidney going to the birds (News)“Just get on with creating the National Marine Conservation Area for the Southern Strait of Georgia, then maybe we can all put our considerable skills, our time, and money on something
more to protect the amazing ecological diversity of the west coast than signage. [ I] was part of establishing signage for fish habitat, and the results are not great. Signage should be part of the whole, but the way we’re going the signage will read “Here lies the last osprey; RIP great blue heron”. All these initiatives are limited by the current funds available and the sustainability is questionable. I guess it is better than nothing, but there needs to be more. Establish the NMCA.”

Letters to the Editor
The US government is imposing traveller fees, this is just another example of the bad consequences encountered because of governments with poor fiscal policies.
Say what you may regarding our Conservative leaders and policies but thank God they have managed their financial books better than most other nations.
We are blessed to be Canadian. M. Klassen,
Sidney
Perhaps Virginia Smith should think before making such bold statements in the PENINSULA NEWS REVIEW (Animals should complain PNR letters Oct. 26).
She seems to forget that classic passage in the Old Testament “God blessed them and said to them, ‘Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and over every living creature that moves on the
ground.’”Measuring the world’s current
situation by this standard, it seems we have done a pretty good job. We fish the oceans, hunt the deer, log the forests and yes, we even let our feral cats dominate the birds.
If she is as concerned about the environment as her letter suggests, I suggest she lead the way in making a change. Get rid of that car, stop reading
the newspaper and please, let those leaves rot on the ground.
Perhaps a humble cottage with no running water or electricity, in the middle of the wild is an abode that would suit her expectations. That way, she won’t have to harm the environment, or witness others doing so with no compunction.
Taylor Hess,North Saanich
Re: Densification study deferred to 2012 (PNR Oct. 26).
This study is certainly required. The municipal hall’s filing cabinets contain at least eight letters, staff memos, planning and development committee minutes, advisory planning commission minutes, and council minutes, on the subject of uncertainty around the meaning of the term “densification” and the need for such a study. Adding to the confusion is that the Official Community Plan contains the word but does not define it.
This lack of meaning and understanding, however, has not
prevented council from ploughing ahead with approving various bylaw amendments, rezonings, and variances.
One of the most serious of these, in my view, is the initiative that removed the requirement for houses with suites, that the owner reside in one of the two dwelling units.
To be included in the issue is that according the 2006 Census, 18 per cent of the dwelling units in Central Saanich are rental units. For the other three rural municipalities in the CRD the figures are: Metchosin 14 per cent, North Saanich 10 per cent, and Highlands six
per cent. Central Saanich also compares favourably with the urban municipalities. For example, Langford is at 21 per cent and Sidney is at 23 per cent.
Those who think that Central Saanich should increase its stock of rental units should instead turn their sights on other municipalities, both rural and urban, and have them increase their rental stock to bring their figures more in line with those of rural Central Saanich.
Central Saanich is at present carrying more than its share of the load.

Re: North Saanich candi-dates take team approach, (PNR Oct. 14)
Regarding supposed increase in taxes, council has controlled expenditures, resulting in reductions in annual tax increases over the past three years. With previous councils between 2005 and 2008, annual tax increases ranged from eight per cent to over 10 per cent. In my term as mayor, coun-cil has capped increases to five per cent or lower. North Saanich continues to have the lowest residential taxes in the
Capital Regional District.Regarding regulations, no
bylaws passed during the current term have increased regulation of citizens. To the contrary, the zoning and wildfire bylaws have been simplified to reduce red tape, costs and confu-sion. Changes to the land use bylaws in this term have expanded uses for residents rather than regulating them more tightly.
Development fees were reviewed last year after almost 20 years with no increase. This council unani-
mously resolved an increase reflecting the actual cost of processing applications. Tax-payers are no longer subsidiz-ing fees that should be paid by private development. The number and value of building permits has increased since 2009 and business licenses continue to increase.
There was a statement that there has been “never-ending consultants’ reports, lawsuits and redundant reviews”.
The one review, regarding the Deep Cove sewer project completed in 2007, was nec-essary because of substantial
cost overruns, poor commu-nications and other problems. The current council unani-mously adopted all 11 con-sultant’s recommendations to improve future project man-agement.
Only two lawsuits have been undertaken due to complaints from residents respecting serious bylaw infractions.
I recommend that residents check generalized statements, to ensure they have accurate, balanced information.

Now’s time for tree plantingpath. The older kids came later, but they were always polite.
One year I dressed up, and painted my face, and blackened a couple of front teeth, to answer the door, but the kids weren’t impressed. We did sort of surprise them one year in Prince George, though. I had given him-self a bear rug for Christ-mas the year before, and we draped it over a saw-horse in the driveway, and turned the porch light out. We stood inside at a win-dow waiting for shrieks of terror but they were a wily bunch and simply walked past as though there wasn’t a grizzly standing there with his mouth wide open.
November. It can’t be! Just a min-ute ago it was summer, and now this. Stewart had to scrape frost off his windshield the other morning, so I guess the calendar is right, it is late fall, time to plant any deciduous trees, or evergreens for that matter.
When you put in trees they should be planted at the same depth as
they were in their pot. If they are bare-root put them in a pail of water while you dig a hole twice as broad
as the extended roots, and deep enough to cover all the roots with about a foot of soil. Mix a cup of bone meal into the earth that’s going back into the hole. Spread the roots out as evenly as possible over a mound of dirt in the bot-tom of the hole so that they will hold your tree not only upright, but straight up. Drive in a strong stake close to the trunk, then using wide strips of panty hose (or similar) tie your
tree loosely to the stake. Fill the hole with soil, tamping it down as you spade it in. When finished, tramp firmly around it and then let a hose run slowly around the perimeter for about 10 minutes (or more) to make sure the roots are soaked.
From now on, nature should attend to the watering, but if it remains dry, water it thoroughly once a week until the rains do start. Sorry to be so bossy.

PENINSULA NEWS REVIEW -Wednesday, November 2, 2011 www.peninsulanewsreview.com • A13
SPORTSKimura Shukokai Karate had
a good showing at the Zone VI of Karate BC tryouts. It was the last tryouts for the up-coming provincial tournament. Kimura Shukokai, rep-resented by four different dojos, had 12 competitors entered. They walked away with 12 gold medals, four silver medals and seven bronze.
In Kata (forms), Maarten Kooij-man, Joel Southwood and Becky Naylor took gold, Greg Foster and Karen Naylor won silver, and David Lowe, Mohamed Dehairi, Rob Walker, Marika Tol, Sarah Walker and Taimi Mulder each won bronze in their var-ious categories. Naylor, Walker and Tol won gold in their team kata divi-
sion.In kumite (sparring), Jackson Dal-
las, David Lowe, Kooijman, Foster, Dehairi, Walker and Naylor came away with the gold medal, while Southwood and Mulder won silver in their categories and Tol earned bronze.
Kimura Shukokai Karate has oper-ated in Victoria for more than 10 years and is now spreading out from Brentwood Bay into North Saanich, Juan de Fuca/Westshore, Sooke, and Shirley.
For more information, contact David Bentley at 778-678-5425 or visit www.shukokai-canada.com.
Max Low first made headlines out of local athletes as a writer in 1971 and now his name will live on in the Greater Victoria Sports Hall of Fame.
Low retired in 1997. He is one of seven to enter the Hall dur-ing the Oct. 29 annual induction banquet at the Pacific Institute for Sport Excellence.
Athletes Bob Bolitho, Gail Archibald, Roland Green and Gary Johnston will be celebrated alongside the Oak Bay Tennis Club and the 1974-75 London Boxing Club.
Boots and ballsA Gorge soccer product,
Bolitho was selected to Canada’s national team in 1974, competed in the 1976 Olympics, and was a member of the legendary 1978 Vancouver Whitecaps, which won the NASL Championship.
At the same time Bolitho left Gorge, the cross-town rival Lon-don Boxing Club was the first Victoria team to win the Cana-
dian Soccer Championship in 1975, after 85 years of soccer in Victoria.
While the 1970s were marked as the glory days of Canadian soccer, a rugby revival was underway in Victoria with forward Johnston leading the pack.
Johnston played for and coached the James Bay Athletic Association to provincial great-ness.
A pupil of previous Hall of Fame inductee Tillman Briggs (1996), Johnston played a key role with the 1980s and ’90s national teams and is famous for making national rugby stars out of unsuspecting Oak Bay High students. He remains a part of JBAA’s advisory staff today.
Not so soft starSoftball star Archibald was an
elite pitcher in B.C. for the Poly-ettes and Victoria/Molson Vice-ttes from 1959-15 before moving to Vancouver where she played
for the Texaco and Eldorado teams from 1966-69.
During that time Archibald picked up top pitching awards while leading her teams to B.C., Canadian Northwest, Canadian Regional and Canadian Champi-onship competitions.
Centennial recognitionWhat was originally the B.C.
Electric Railway employees’ ten-nis club became the modern-day Oak Bay Tennis Club when employees bought it in 1964. The club first operated at Wind-sor Park in 1911 and by 1923 had two courts to use and a social clubhouse on Bowker Street.
Pedalled to medalMountain biker Green won
four Canadian cycling titles and dominated the World Cup cross-country circuit for four seasons, winning the UCI championship in 2001 and 2002. Green won gold in the 2002 Commonwealth Games.

A two-over-par total was enough for Megan Woodland to give herself and the University of Victoria women’s golf team first place at the Vikes Shootout, Oct. 24-25, at Cordova Bay Golf Course.
It’s the Vikes women’s second team title at the shootout. UVic scored a total 623 (309+314), nine shots ahead of the Concordia University. The Uni-versity of Alberta was third at 674.
Woodland hit two of her six birdies in the final round (70 and 76, 146) and was four shots ahead of second-place finisher Sara Molyneux (Concordia).
The Vikes men’s team was in third spot in the team standings. James Holland was the Vikes top male. He shot 70 and 75 for a 145 total, tying him for fourth spot.

Two award-winning choruses will join forces for some extreme harmony on Nov. 19 in two per-formances of A Cappella Fusion.
Vancouver Island’s City of Gardens Chorus and Burnaby’s Westcoast Harmony Chorus will sing popular songs from the 1960s and ‘70s in a cappella four-part harmony. The two choruses took silver and gold in Western Canada competition in May, earning them spots on Sweet Adelines’ international competi-tion stage in Denver, Colorado, in October 2012.
Joining the choruses in A Cap-pella Fusion are 2011 and 2010 regional quartet champions, Easy Street and Over the Moon, as well as quartets Victoria’s Euphoria, Fancy Free and The Sonic Project. Easy Street will be competing in the international quartet competition this Octo-ber in Houston, Texas.
“We share an exhilarating, common bond in our love of a cappella harmony that pro-motes teamwork, friendship, sis-terhood, and a sense of achieve-ment,” says Bonnie Dennis,
membership chair. Two shows take place Sat-
urday, Nov. 19, at 2 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. in the Charlie White Theatre at the Mary Winspear Centre. Tickets are $25 avail-able through Joyce at [email protected] or 250-479-6096, or at the Mary Winspear Centre box office at 250-656-0275 or online at www.marywinspear.ca.
A portion of the shows’ pro-ceeds will be donated to The Cridge Centre for the Family, a society serving children, adults and families.
Choruses combine for concert

Vancouver Island’s City of Gardens Chorus will combine with a Mainland counterpart in A Cappella Fusion at the Mary Winspear Centre.
The Bayside Big Band will be the featured per-formers at the Jazz Ves-pers in Deep Cove.
The 16-piece Bay-side Big Band repli-cates the instrumen-tation, musical style and spirit of the popu-lar swing dance bands of the 1940s. Their rep-ertoire features doz-ens of hit jazz vocals, many played from the original vintage charts. The band also performs custom arrangements penned especially for the band by several gifted band members. A typical set will span from the ‘30s to the ‘80s combining vocal jazz standards, modern ballads, and traditional swing or Latin songs.
Bayside Big Band performs on Nov. 6 at 7 p.m. at St. John’s United Church, 10990 West Saanich Rd. There is no admission charge, and an offering will be taken. Email Bernadette at [email protected].
Vespers swing with Bayside Big Band
The Sidney Concert Band Remembrance Concert is slated for Sunday, Nov. 6 at 2 p.m. in the Charlie White Theatre, Mary Win-spear Centre. Admis-sion is by donation and doors open at 1:15 p.m. Also featuring 443 Squadron Pipes and Drums, Saanich Penin-sula Pipe Band.
