Play it forwardPeople are getting water dumped on them and the goal is to raise awareness of ALS (Lou Gehrigs disease). Steve Knoke, manager at SEAPARC has invited staff and SEAPARC participants to donate via the Facebook page @ als.ca. They are not currently tracking their contributions. The challenge involves people getting doused with buckets of ice water on video, posting that video to social media, then nominating others to do the same, all in an effort to raise ALS awareness. People can either accept the challenge or make a donation to an ALS Charity of their choice, or do both.The SEAPARC team passed on the challenge to the District of Sooke staff. Mike Hicks passed the challenge on to Sooke mayor and council as well as District of Sooke staff. Hicks was taking up the challenge presented to him by the City of Esquimalt. The participants from left to right are: Darcy Smith, Tara Seeburger, Megan MacKeigan, Morgan Gurbersky, Steve Knoke, Mike Hicks, Bryce McMath, Angela Petrie, Arran Wass-Little, Norris Wass-Little. Not shown in photo is Dylan Mack. The dumpers are kids at SEAPARC summer camp. They loved doing it!

You never really notice them when they are flying but when they are gone you just sense something is dif-ferent. The American and Canadian flags have disappeared from the Legion.

Someone came by late at night and stole everything but the flag pole. Whoever took the flag had to climb onto the roof to get at it. The Canadian flag flying at the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 54 dis-appeared and now the Legion has to purchase another flag. Thats not all, they have to buy some kind of enhanced security flag pole so it doesnt happen again.

The American flag, flying on another pole, was brought down because it cant fly alone without the Cana-dian flag.

It will cost us a lot of money, said Legion manager Paul McTav-ish. We need to get a new one so the Legion can fly the Canadian

flag. It should never happen and its not the first time.

So the Legion is hop-ing people will donate towards the cost of a new flag pole and flag. if interested, drop off a donation at the Legion bar or through the mail to Royal Canadian Legion Branch #54, P.O.Box 337, Sooke, B.C. V9Z 1G1.


Its the hand that cra-dles new life and it is missing.

Driftwood Steves hand carved hand, which was at the Sooke Harbour House was pil-fered from the grounds sometime around March 24, 2014.

Steve was set to give the art piece to his niece but it went missing and he wants it back. He is offering a reward of $750 to who-ever returns the red cedar carving.

The reward is to any-one who brings infor-mation to the return of the hand, no questions asked, said Steve.

The hand is about

four feet long and two and-a-half feet wide and as shown it can cradle a wee baby.

Its carved by my hand of my hand, he said.

Steve spent more than 60 hours carving the hand after he found the cedar burl on the beach.

Driftwood Steve is a carver and artist. He has numerous examples of his talent at the Sooke Harbour House. He calls it Art by Nature and thats his only livelihood.

Its sad, my only income is from my art,

he said in reference to the missing art piece.

He fashions wooden flowers, gates, fences, arbors and all manner of creative pieces out of the driftwood he finds on the beaches in the Sooke area. Hes a wood salvager and a recycler, artist and craftsman.

He asks anyone who may know where his piece is to just return it to where they found it or get in touch so he can retrieve it. Call Steve at 250-686-8974 or email to: [email protected]

Fall fairs have a way of bringing communi t ies together. They used to be held at a time when farmers could finally relax after the crops came in. They would boast about the biggest pumpkins and the fat-test chickens and they would visit with each other and relax a little.

Family farms are the binder twine that holds all things together. This year the Sooke Fall Fair is celebrating the fam-ily farm in honor of the United Nations Inter-national Year of Fam-ily Farming. The Sooke Fall Fair takes place on September 6 and 7 at the Sooke Community Hall and across Eustace Road at the Legion.

In her Presidents Message, Ellen Lew-ers said, our aim is to encourage the commu-nity to embrace their family farms (from backyard gardens to commercial producers) and gain better knowl-edge about local suppli-ers of healthy food and what they grow.

Along with the dis-plays and exhibits of potatoes and flowers, knitting and quilting, and everything to do with growing, home arts and animals, there are some fun things to take part in.

New this year is a family farm dance at Ed Macgregor Park on Sat-urday from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. Lewers encour-ages people to get into the spirit and get out and dance.

Dress as a farmer if you like and get ready to do the chicken dance, said Lewers.

Thinking back to what made fall fairs such an awaited event were things like pie eat-ing contests and they

will be having one at 4 p.m. on Saturday at the community hall. The event is open to everybody and there is no entry fee. Proba-bly a change of clothes would be welcome after though.

Kids make up a lot of the enthusiasm and there are a number of fun things for them to do. There will be a dunk the Barbie tank, Lucky Ducky, Tic Tac Toe and a whole bunch of other fun unplugged events. These will be run by youth groups in Sooke and the ticket money (50 cents) will go to those groups for their programs. This could be a really great way to introduce kids to life before computers, cell phones and electronic games. Let them look at the chickens and rab-bits and other animals behind the community hall. The Pet Parade is a fun event where many

pets are dressed up and decorated. Its fun to watch and fun for the kids to be involved in.

Take the kids or grandkids on an old-fashioned hay ride and pony ride or race a zucchini in the Great Sookeini Race sched-uled for 3 p.m. on Sat-urday.

We are really try-

ing to get the kids engaged, said Lewers.

If that isnt enough to get the excitement happening, buy a ticket on the chicken plop bingo, come listen to the music, bring your entry in to be judged and then auctioned off. A happy face sticker will show which entries are up for auction.

When people do their entries they have the opportunity to put their goods into the auction. Members of the Sooke Fall Fair Soci-ety will also be making pies for auction, Lew-ers said.

Whats a fall fair with-out a fiddle or two? There will be a farm-ers music jam at 11

a.m. on Sunday. Musi-cians are encouraged to bring along their instruments and pick and strum with others on stage in the commu-nity hall. Music will be playing throughout the two days on the stage as well. Come on down, have a seat and listen to some of Sookes musicians and singers giving their all.

The beautiful Fall Fair Quilt will be raffled off as first prize and there are two other prizes this year. The quilt, of course, is first prize, with a basket of local meat valued at $250 as second prize and a pro-duce and a value-added basket worth $150 as third prize. All the more reason to purchase a raffle ticket. All the proceeds go towards future fall fairs.

Literary and photo-graphic entries can be viewed upstairs at the Legion, across from the Sooke Community Hall on Eustace Road.

Its all there, every-thing that makes Sooke what it is. Old-fash-ioned? Absolutely! Fun? You bet! Community? Most certainly.

For all the catego-ries and list of events pick up a fall fair cata-logue at retail outlets in Sooke.

Did you know. I have a veggie garden and every year I am excited to get it going, but they are a lot of work. I am ex-tremely busy with my career. I start the garden late, I dont weed it as often as I should. I pick all the beans a couple of weeks too late. There is quite an art to it. I remem-ber things my dad said were impor-tant when planting and I think part of wanting a garden is remembering a childhood and all that went with it. I will do it again next year and all I can do is hope to do better.! Buying or Selling.. call me!

Hanging Judge goes easy on local publisherPirjo RaitsSooke News Mirror

They threw him over the back of a police car, handcuffed him and arrested him.

He hadnt done any-thing wrong and he did have his day in court. Little good it did him. Cries of police brutality and fixed juries went unheard.

Sooke News Mirror publisher Rod Sluggett will have to serve time in jail.

On September 13 Sluggett will begin serving the sentence imposed upon him by Judge Hang M. High. Prosecutor Yumas B. Guilty outlined all of the misdeeds carried out by Sluggett, which was everything from extended coffee breaks to jaywalking across Sooke Road.

When arresting Slug-gett Staff Sergeant Jeff McArthur said, a guilty look is all you need.

On Saturday, Septem-ber 13 the Sooke Com-mittee for the Tour de Rock will build a jail at the kiosk area at Ever-green Centre to house criminals such as Sluggett. They will be jailed until such a time as they can raise the necessary bail. Bail raised can be used to release these prisoners or to keep them locked up. All of the bail money raised will go to Cops for Cancer.

We did this two years ago and made $7,500, said Jane Bed-dows, organizer for Tour de Rock/Cops for Cancer.

Bail money for Slug-gett can be dropped off at the Sooke News Mirror office, #4-6631

Sooke Road.This time the

Jailathon will feature the fire department bouncy house, refresh-ments by donation, a bake sale, music by Janet McTavish and a whole lot more.

The Sooke Commit-tee for the Tour de Rock hopes this will be great show and also

bring awareness to this important cause.

Former Sooke RCMP detachment Staff Ser-geant Steve Wright will be riding with Tour de Rock and the Sooke Lions is throwing their support behind him.

Hes the only RCMP from the lower Island riding in the Tour de Rock, said Beddows.

And he is a member of the Sooke Lions Club. He is also the only Lions Club member to take on the ride.

Wright is a Sooke resident, although he works in the Westshore detachment.

He said he is very excited about doing the ride. He decided to join the Tour de Rock

because he wanted to help because every family is affected by cancer.

I always wanted to do it and this is my chance to raise money for these kids. Unfortu-nately it is an ongoing battle against cancer, said Wright.

Wright went to Camp Goodtimes and said it was a heartwarming experience to see where the money is going.

Im ready to go, Im in the final stages of training and Ive been

training on my own as well. Its been a long haul. Its a great expe-rience. The commu-nity of Sooke is a very generous supporter of this, said Wright.

Wright has been training for the grueling 14-day Tour de Rock, riding 1,000 kms. on his bike. He starts the journey in Port Hardy on September 20 and arrives in Victoria on October 4.

Wright is riding to raise money and aware-ness for childhood cancer research and sending these children to Camp Goodtimes, a camp specifically for children with cancer and their families. The riders will be in Sooke on October 1 at approx-imately 2 p.m.

A long time Sooke resident is finally able to give back to her community in gratitude for all the blessings that she has received. Alanda Carver, is creat-ing the Ahimsa Sooke Yoga and Wellness Cen-tre in the new Hope Centre building located at 6750 West Coast Rd. Ahimsa Sooke opens September 2nd. It is a learning centre that will combine therapeutic yoga, and regular yoga classes, with practitio-ners of wellness such as nutritionists, acu-puncturists, and coun-sellors.

Alanda is a certified yoga teacher and long time resident of Muir Creek who was par-tially paralyzed in a car accident on West Coast Road in December of 1990. She was a pas-senger of a vehicle that was struck on the side and due to the spinal damage she sustained in the accident, she lost

the functional use of her arms and legs. She was unable to wash her own hair for seven years.It was a long and slow recovery but along the way Alanda was helped back to health by great Sooke health care providers. Eight years into recovery she became mobile enough to try a yoga class. The goal taking that first class was to not leave in an ambulance. When the class finished she was in tears - that yoga class changed her life. It meant that maybe she could have a life.

Now, 24 years since the accident, Alanda Carver is finally in a position to give back to the community that has given her so much. She is opening a yoga studio at the Hope Centre. The studio will combine Ahimsa Yoga Studio with a not for profit Sooke Thera-peutic Yoga Society. The goal is make yoga

accessible to everyone in our community.

The Sooke Thera-peutic Yoga Society will focus on support-ing yoga for kids and teens and offer yoga for people with special challenges. It will be operated by local Yoga Therapists who have been specially trained to assist people with physical, mental or emotional challenges using yoga. Alanda has special training in using yoga for cancer

patients, yoga to sup-port womens breast health, yoga for healing addictions and yoga for optimal brain health. Other therapists at the centre will specialize in working with peo-ple with physical chal-lenges and some will specialize in helping people with emotional traumas.

For those who are financially challenged the Sooke Therapu-etic Yoga Society will also offer a daily class

by donation so that everyone can afford to attend. The society will host events and rent space to Ahimsa Yoga to support the funding of therapeutic classes. The new studio will be located upstairs on thesecondfloor.at the Hope Centre 6750 West Coast Rd. There is an elevator for those with mobility challenges! And great regular yoga classes for the more able bodied!

Yoga becomes accessible to everyone

Woven cedar bark, wool, feathers and blankets were part of the ceremonial dance costuming of TSou-ke Hereditary Chief Andrew Lazzar and his daughters Mary and Susan. The year was 1928 and the occasion a spirit dance celebra-tion at the Esquimalt Big House.

Though today she would be unknown to many readers, the woman in the centre, Susan Lazzar was an incredibly interesting, generous-spirited and talented woman who made many contribu-tions to our knowledge of our history.

Born in 1910 to Annie (Jones), wife of Chief Andrew and sis-ter of Queesto of the Pacheedaht People, Susan grew up on Sooke Reserve No 1. When she was nine she was sent to Kuper Island Residential School, learning to read and write. Back at home, she learned traditional Salish skills, in prepar-ing seafood and learn-ing to weave cedarbark and sweetgrass baskets at her mothers side. My mother, shed say Watch me, I dont have to tell you, just watch me. She wouldnt talk about it shed just show us how its done.

Married young, to George Cooper of Esquimalt, she was the mother of Jimmie Coo-per, who grew up to serve several terms as the elected chief of the TSou-ke Band. Susan sometimes lived in Esquimalt, sometimes in her Sooke homeland, and also in Washington State where she raised several additional chil-dren. Throughout her

life, she continued to practice the traditional Salish skills she took such pride in sharing.

She never failed to give thanks to the tree when she asked the cedar to give up some of its bark for her use and she addressed the sun each morning as she set about her day. During the 1980s, liv-ing permanently in Sooke, Grandma Sue became a fixture at the Sooke Region Museum every summer Sunday as she sat out on the lawn showing visitors the processes of weav-ing with cedar bark. We, along with the visi-tors, thought of her as a kindly, gentle treasure.

We were particularly excited the day that renowned US anthro-pologist and ethnolo-gist Wayne Suttles arrived at the museum to study the tule reed

mat she had made. Grandma Sue had cho-sen the finest tule reeds from either side of the Strait of Juan de Fuca

for her woven master-piece.

Local artist Kathy Johannesson partnered with her to write her memoirs, That Was our Way of Life a lit-tle booklet available at the museum. Among Susans sisters, besides Mary, who married Baptiste Paul, there was Nancy, who mar-ried Dick Pappenburger of Saltspring Island and her eldest sister, Ida Lazzar who became Mrs. Gustave Planes. Ida raised a large fam-ily in Sooke who all became well-known, particularly in the fish-ing community. It is one of her grandsons, Gordon, who serves as TSou-ke Chief Gordon Planes today.

ICBC rate increases are unjustified

Distracted driving is being blamed for the proposed raise in ICBC premiums. Really? How many tickets for distracted driving have the police issued as opposed to other traffic violations? Lets see the numbers. ICBC can blame the rise in rates on anything and we have no way to dispute their claims.

It isnt a matter of ticketing those who are distracted but of educating drivers. We see people on their cellphones all the time and the police probably only catch a very small percentage of them. People are also distracted by a screaming baby, checking their makeup, eating, changing a cd or even funbling around in a briefcase or purse. Its not just about cellphones, but that is what they are using as rationale for raising the already exorbitent premiums.

Now that people are not drinking and driving they need another way to generate revenue and they have to get that revenue stream from all drivers. ICBC is not in a deficit position, in fact they are raking in the profits - and those profits come from everyone who gets behind a wheel.

This is another case of punishing everyone for the misdeeds of a few. Big Brother is alive and well and he wants your money. If there are indeed so many accident claims due to distracted driving, then punish those who are causing the accidents, not the ones who are not.

We dont ever share in the profits of ICBC so why should we pay more so they get more? The provncial government made sure ICBC was a monopoly and we have no choice in where we get our insurance. Put the blame and the cost onto those who commit the offenses, not the ones who dont.

FEATURE LETTER

Horgan writes open letter to Pre-mier Clark on B.C. education dispute

VICTORIA New Democrat leader John Horgan has written an open let-ter to Premier Christy Clark on the prolonged education dispute. In the letter, Horgan expresses disappoint-ment with the governments failed approach to date, and urges the pre-mier to directly involve herself in the negotiations, and to set a new tone that respects teachers and our public education system.

Dear Premier Clark:Parents across our province have

already paid a huge price for your governments failure to resolve the labour dispute in our public educa-tion system. Our children deserve the quality public education the gov-ernment is responsible for deliver-ing, and parents deserve an end to the stress and uncertainty caused by the disruption. The prolonged dispute is hurting our teaching professionals a job that deserves respect and support from all parties and members of the legislature and governments of every stripe.

My colleague, Rob Fleming, yes-terday called publicly for your edu-cation minister to be relieved of his duties as it has become clear Mr. Fassbender is not capable of doing his job of providing public educa-tion to all British Columbians. He delayed and obstructed negotiations all summer, denied mediation would work, publicly provoked teachers

while mediator Vince Ready finally did meet with both sides, and has been unwilling to negotiate on the vital issue of class size and compo-sition.

It was disappointing to hear this morning that you continue to place your full confidence in Mr. Fass-bender. Your continued absence throughout this crisis shows a lack of leadership when British Colum-bians need it most. Parents, kids, and teachers deserve more from their premier than a series of tweets meant to further inflame the situa-tion and point fingers at teachers. They deserve action towards a real resolution that gets kids back in classrooms and improves the qual-ity of education delivered in our public schools.

British Columbians watched as you proudly proclaimed your involvement in settling the truckers dispute at the federally-regulated Port Metro Vancouver. I urge you to recognize that providing a high quality public education to young British Columbians is even more important to our future economic success. Moreover, every day the dispute continues it disrupts fami-lies, communities and productivity in our economy as the families of 500,000 children struggle to deal with the impacts.

We need government leadership that listens to parents, the public and the courts about the impor-tance of addressing class size and

composition. That will require bet-ter resources for our schools. Your governments funding freeze is unre-alistic and counter-productive to achieving your own stated educa-tion goals and the ability to achieve an immediate settlement.

Parents know that in your days as education minister you were directly responsible for unconsti-tutionally stripping teachers of the right to bargain class size and com-position, making it harder to learn and harder to teach a whole genera-tion of BC students.

Our childrens education is too important for you to do nothing but tweet platitudes and let an incapa-ble minister continue on a destruc-tive path. It is past time that you began to make amends for your own record of disruption and decline in classroom quality. I urge you to remove Mr. Fassbender. To show that you do not enter labour dis-putes simply for credit after the work is done, I urge you to person-ally and directly involve yourself in the negotiations, setting a new tone that respects teachers and our pub-lic education system, and finally bar-gaining as productively as your gov-ernment repeatedly promised to do - so our kids can get back to school where they belong.

John Horgan, LeaderOfficial Opposition

Youth do have a voice

Dear Mr. Haldane,Your letter last week

stated we are over-looking the needs of the young in this commu-nity because they have no voice. I am writing to assure you that the problem is not that youth have no voice. In fact, saying youth have no voice actually disempowers youth before they ever get a chance to meet you. The actual problem is that their voice isnt being sought after.

Youth have a whole lot to say about local government. But you must be so passion-ate about hearing their voice, that you spend your spare time chas-ing after it. Bringing pizza to their sports games, presenting hot-topics to their class-rooms, hanging out at the skate park and learning how to ollie, going to Whiffen Spit on a Friday night and help-ing them build a fort, without judgement of whatever else theyre doing there.

Youth engagement is like inviting someone you just met to a party - if theyre not invited, they dont really know if they should show up. So you invite them, but they feel awkward since they dont know any-body. Its your job, as the party host, to greet them in the driveway when they text you ask-ing if theyre at the right house, and walk them in, introducing them to people and showing

them where the hors doeuvres are.

For three years, I have been doing youth community develop-ment work with the Sooke Youth Coun-cil and Canada World Youth for the Youth Friendly Business Proj-ect, Youth Friendly Community Project, and Youth Engagement Project. The informa-tion is out there, wait-ing. If you would like to know what local youth think without engag-ing them as above, the reports are on the Sooke Youth Council website.

A trip down Memory Lane

A friend recently passed an article writ-ten by Britt Santowski about Leechtown to me.

I was born in Vic-toria but my parents lived at the lumber mill (owed by DO Cameron)in Leechtown. I have many pictures of the children who lived at the mill which I believe was at the end of the railway now called the Galloping Goose. As well as pictures of the river and our house.

There must be many of those who were born about the same time I was who are still around - Shir-ley King, Marlita Neil,

Susie Compte and Mar-gie Welburn all females born within months of each other (must have been some thing in the water!

I spent many summer days at the lumber mill, which was managed by Harold Neil, with his daughter Marlita.

Still needing a dog park

I am a dog owner two big, happy, fun loving, people loving, other dog loving, ram-bunctious, friendly dogs.

I used to take one of them off-leash to Whif-fin Spit. But he wouldnt come when he was called, and he would race toward oncom-ing people to say hello. I can understand how seeing a 90-pound mass of brown hurtling towards you would frighten you. I get it. So I stopped going, and he doesnt get to run around and play with other dogs or enjoy the water.

So, in response to the letter of Aug. 20, would you support having a dog park in Sooke, where dogs could play and run in a safe, secure area? Because they cant do it anywhere else, south of Duncan. We have tried for years,

with the previous mayor and the current one, to establish a dog park in Sooke.

For all of those peo-ple who dont want off leash dogs around, help us find a place where they can be off leash.

Poor timing for painting

Sooke Road was blocked in one lane (alternating) during evening rush hour August 27, 2014. Cars

were backed up almost to Gillespie Road.

The reason for the blockage was not a fire, or an accident, or emergency repairs, but to repaint a school crosswalk, which, to my eyes, was perfectly visible prior to repaint-ing, and which per-fectly well could have been repainted during low traffic periods.

Whoever authorized this disruption of traf-fic during rush hour should not be making decisions on behalf of the municipality. I would be happy to know the name of the person who authorized this, and that persons

der if municipal officers are happy with the total disregard for the con-venience of citizens, neighbours, and visi-tors. This kind of mis-management--and I am quite sure that some drivers would have stronger words--should be punished, and not allowed in the future.

Upset with editorial cartoon

I resent your car-toon implying the gov-ernment and teach-ers union could learn something from young people about team-work.

Characterizing this dispute as squabbling between two parties glibly ignores the real-ity that this is a delib-erate politically moti-vated attack on the BCTF and public school parents and students by a right leaning con-servative group that

favours private educa-tion over public. Con-sider the facts:

Teachers are with-out a pay increase for the last four years and are being offered 5.5 per cent over five years guaranteeing income will lag far

behind the cost of liv-ing that will run about 18 per cent over that time period. They want to protect their families security. Who wouldnt?

Teachers will not make up their lost wages by staying on

the picket line.... maybe they are concerned about the deterioration of public schools due to Christy Clarks gov-ernments cuts.

Teachers gave up a wage increase over 10 years ago to help fund class size and compo-sition issues. Once the deal was signed and teachers went back to work Minister Christy Clark gutted the con-tract, stabbing teachers in the back. Any won-der theres a corrosive lack of trust for this government.

The Supreme Court has accused our gov-ernment of trying to provoke a strike to score political points by saying teachers must volunteer to give up time for extracurricu-lar activities.The court found this to be such egregious behaviour the government was fined $2-million.

The government fired the negotiating body BCPSEA and replaced them with a political appointee who has done nothing but let the crisis fester - again for political advantage.

So the next time your editorial cartoonist chooses a topic maybe they should do their homework instead of aiding the govern-

ment misinformation machine that contin-ues to grind our public schools into the dust all funded by taxpayers hard earned dollars.

When a Friend Gets CancerThis summer a friend of mine got cancer. One moment he was ne. The next moment he was ghting for breath. As a respiratory therapist he had his ideas about what was wrong. But the latest is that he has the fastest growing cancer known to mankind. It can double in size in 12 hours.

As a friend and pastor, I visited him today. I decided to focus on the reality of the human condition. But the conversation took a magni cent turn toward the glorious. It happened when he mentioned how embarrassed he was to have over 600 people on his team. These supporters have come out of the woodwork of his life to support him in his ght to stay alive. He related to me how sad he was that he had not supported a colleague at work in the same way when the fellow had come to work with no hair. He was sad that he had not started a team for his colleague.

I was gripped by the largeness of the circle of in uence my friend had. The life he has lived, nowhere mundane, had caused many, many others, including his fellow cancer-suffering colleague to join his team, and like Mel Gibson in Braveheart, line up and make fun of the enemy. It made me think that the life we live inspires or depresses those around us. We can impress others with our passion for life, or pull them down with our poor me attitudes.

I joined my friends team today. I also decided to join him in living an impressive life. I want to impress many, many other fellow humans with the joy that only God can give while we walk through this valley of the shadow of Death. With King David I want to shout, I fear no evil, for You are with me! My friend has cancer. I fear no evil, for He is with us!

CELEBRATE FAMILY FARMS AT THESOOKE FALL FAIR!

Gleaning Sookes fruit treesFor a few hours a week, you can make a big difference.

Two key volun-teers, Larry Galbraithe and Nancy Bennett, have stepped up this late summer to coordinate Food Chis fruit tree gleaning program, a program run success-fully in recent past sum-mers.

Gleaning a fine activity of gathering and sharing food that may go to waste. Food recovery.

This program will extend well into Octo-ber.

Food CHI is coor-dinating the program with cooperation and support from a num-ber of helping agencies who receive one-third of the picked fruit , vol-unteers receive a third as does the property owner if desired. Noth-ing is wasted. Even the orchard at Sunriver

Gardens donates its fruit.

Food CHI greatly appreciates the sup-port of Sooke Food Bank, CASA, the Crisis Centre and Meals on Wheels for accepting and distributing the

picked fruit, one less meal for the bears, more nutritious foods for our citizens! Food Chi also works with Debbie Read from WildSafe, the CRD bear aware program.

However to make

this program work Food Chi does need a few more picking volun-teers to lend a hand. Not everyone needs to be up a ladder. All pick-ing gear is provided, all picks are supervised, some transportation can be arranged, and volunteers are covered by Food Chis liability insurance.

For a few hours a week, you can make a big difference.

For those properties who want their fruit picked a site visit is required first, assess-ment of the fruit will it keep before distribu-tion to helping agen-cies. A priority list is set up and as volun-teer resources permit a time to pick likely can be arranged. Priority is given to those families who for a number of reasons are no longer able to pick.

Please call Larry at 250-889-7482 or Nancy at 250-642-0401 if you can lend a hand or have a few trees that you are not able to pick.

Farmers Appreciation

WeekSeptember 8 15, 2014 The BC Associa-

tion of Farmers Mar-kets (BCAFM) invites British Columbians to show their apprecia-tion for local farmers in the form of a poem - a haiku, a ballad, an ode or a limerick, the style is up to you. Novice and experienced writ-ers alike are invited to submit their best agri-culture-inspired poems to the second annual Ode To A Farmer Poetry Contest, in hon-our of Farmers Appreci-ation Week September 8-15, 2014.

The grand prize win-ner will receive a $150 gift certificate to the B.C. farmers market of their choice. To cel-ebrate the diversity of B.C.s agriculture, con-test judges will select a grand prize win-ner, plus one winning poem in each region of BC: Cariboo Chilcotin Coast, Kootenay Rock-ies, Northern British Columbia, Thompson Okanagan, Vancouver, Coast & Mountains and Vancouver Island.

Winning regional authors will receive a $50 gift certificate to the B.C. farmers mar-ket of their choice. The contest is open to all British Columbia resi-dents. Submissions will be accepted online or

by mail until Sunday, September 7th at 11:59 p.m. For details see Farmers Appreciation Week - Poetry Contest.

BC farmers are our best source for fresh, healthy, local food, says Jon Bell, BCAFM President, and the Poetry Contest is a means to express our gratitude for BC farm-ers and all the ways they contribute to our health, communities and economy.

This is the 5th annual Farmers Appreciation Week, an annual event highlighting the impor-tant contribution that local food and farm-ers make to our lives. Farmers Appreciation Week will be celebrated at farmers markets across B.C. from Sep-tember 8 15, 2014. For more information on how to participate, see the Farmers Appre-ciation Week website. (www.bcfarmersmar-ket.org/resources/sub-page/farmers-apprecia-tion-week).

Three accomplished BC writers will judge the contest. Tamara Leigh is a freelance agriculture journalist, President of the BC Farm Writers Associa-tion, and FarmHugger blogger based in the Cowichan Valley of Van-couver Island. Rene Sarojini Saklikar is author of the thecana-daproject. Her work appears in various lit-erary journals, newspa-pers and anthologies, including Geist and Contemporary Verse 2:

The Canadian Journal of Poetry and Critical Writing (CV2). Ronda Payne is an accom-plished agricultural

writer and reporter. She is a regular contributor to Country Life in BC and various other pub-lications.

The BCAFM is a not-for-profit associa-tion that represents 125 farmers markets across the province

and works to support, develop and promote farmers markets in all regions of BC. For more information on

the BCAFM or to find a farmers market near you, visit www.bcfarm-ersmarket.org.

Farmers are being honoured and a poetry contest is being organized in appreciation of the work they do and continue to do to provide British Columbians with farm fresh produce. The photo above was taken at the Sooke Fall Fair in 2012, and the pumpkin was grown by a local gar-dener or farmer.
