Marker Group takes over the McLarty Furniture property in SidneySteven HeywoodNews staff

A new builder has resurrected plans for a five-storey condo structure in downtown Sidney.

Grant Rogers of The Marker Group says his plan for the site of the former McLarty Furniture building on Third Street, is similar to those of the property’s previous owner — with a few notable changes.

While the building will still be five storeys, Rog-ers said it will be up to two feet shorter due to the new configuration of ground floor commercial space.

Instead of 28 units in the original plan, this project will have 25 — three units will be removed from the ground floor space to make room for more parking.

There will be no under-ground parking in the new design. Rogers said the site lies on top of blue clay, which would make underground parking

economically unrealistic.“Putting in underground parking in a best case

situation would cost an additional $35,000 per condo unit,” he explained.

With units expected to sell for between $320,000 and into the high-$400,000 range, Rogers said above-ground parking reduces the over unit price to the market.

He added another change includes modifying the layout of the units to meet the property’s tar-get market — people looking to downsize.

Five-storey condo plan is revived

“For myself, I think it’s a good project. And this one looks just as nice as (the first proposal).”

Canada has a diverse military history and the Saanich Penin-sula is no stranger to the service given by men and women in times of conflict.

Searching for that history, however, can sometimes be daunt-ing. On the weekend, it became easier to locate the final resting place of one of the nation’s Victoria Cross winners. On Saturday, the family of Major General George R. Pearkes attended a ceremonial unveiling of a new grave marker at the Holy Trin-ity Anglican Church in North Saanich. Pearkes was buried there in 1984.

Pearkes is one of Canada’s Victoria Cross (VC) winners. The honour is bestowed upon service-men for gallantry in action and service to one’s fellow soldiers and has only been awarded to 96 Canadians, or people closely associated with this country. The first VC was awarded in 1854 — the last in 1945. Pearkes earned his VC in 1917 during the Battle of Passchendaele in the First World War.

“For most conspicuous bravery and skilful han-dling of the troops under his command during the capture and consolidation of considerably more than the objec-tives allotted to him, in an attack” read the citation in the Lon-don Gazette on Jan. 11, 1918. “Just prior to the advance Maj. Pearkes was wounded in the left thigh. Regardless of his wound, he continued to lead his men with the utmost gallantry, despite many obstacles.”

A career soldier, Pearkes retired from the army at the rank of

Major General and became a Progressive Conservative Member of Parliament, elected four times. He was appointed B.C.’s Lieu-tenant Governor in 1961. He died in Victoria in May 30, 1984.

Jim Cumming, the sexton at Holy Trinity Church and himself a retired naval commodore, says the gravestone replacement on the weekend makes it easier for people to find Maj. Gen. Pearkes.

“It’s an effort by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission to mark some of the graves of VC win-ners who are interred in Canada,” he explained. “It makes it highly visible and easy to find.”

Pearkes was buried at Holy Trinity with a flat headstone. Cummings said unless you walked right up to it, you might miss it. The new marker is upright and resembles the familiar shape of Cana-dian military gravestones. The unveiling on Satur-day involved some of Pearkes’ family, Cumming said, as well Legion members and past members of the Princess Patricia’s Canadian Light Infantry — the unit with whom Pearkes was associated during his service in the years between the wars.

Pearkes didn’t live on the Peninsula at the time of his death, but Cumming said he had family with land in the area and loved to visit. He chose Holy

Trinity’s cemetery as his and his wife’s final resting place. The site is part of the church’s tour program. Cumming said

they will be offering cemetery tours during the upcoming Fla-vour Trails event in North Saanich on August 23. In addition to Pearkes’ grave, Cumming said Holy Trinity is home to some of the Peninsula’s pioneers, representing much of the area’s his-tory. — with files from Veterans Affairs Canada

save our sidney enters phase twoSIDNEY — The Save Our Sidney (SOS)

coalition of concerned downtown busi-nesses, property owners and residents, has

entered phase two of its push to alert local politicians of the frag-ile nature of Sidney’s commercial core.

Spkesperson Rich-ard Talbot said they have formed the SOS Advisory Group. Meeting mainly by email, the group will discuss strategies in support of local busi-ness — as well as consider endorsing like-minded candi-

dates in the November municipal election.Talbot stated in an email that SOS doesn’t

anticipate running candidates directly.“A diverse range of opinions is healthy,” he

wrote, “but moving forward into phase two and the November elections, SOS does need to present a more cohesive and focused action plan.”

Cycle of hope for aLs beginsVICTORIA — The ALS Cycle of Hope starts

tomorrow. North Saanich resident Jennifer Pendray begins their journey from Kamloops to Keremeos, August 7 raising money and awareness for families living with Amyo-trophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS).

She joins 11 other riders from around Greater Victoria who have been training from March in preparation for the one-week jour-ney that will see them ride more than 500 km from Kamloops to Keremeos August 7-13.

Also known as Lou Gehrigs’s disease, the crippling motor neurone disease causes muscle weakness, a degeneration of all vol-untary muscle movement, causes mobility issues and difficulty swallowing and breath-ing. The disease is fatal and there is no cure.

The ground floor area is unique, Rog-

ers explained, in that the commercial space will have live-in room.

That means a business owner could have their shop out front and their

apartment in the back.“Everyone is strug-

gling with commercial on the side streets,” Rogers said. “We didn’t want to create some-thing that would exac-erbate that problem, but not leave the build-ing completely dead.”

Sidney town coun-cillor Steve Price said the proposal has been reviewed by council and forwarded on to their Advisory Planning Commission (APC) for its recommendations.

“Council said they saw merit (in the pro-posal),” Price added, saying they saw a staff report on it at their July 14 meeting.

“For myself, I think it’s a good project and this one looks just as nice as (the first pro-posal).”

The site was initially being redeveloped by Pelorus Development Corp.

In April 2013, coun-cil noted funding had fallen through and the project stalled. The land was later sold to The Marker Group.

“The big thing with this council,” Price con-

tinued, “is that down-town buildings are going in where they need to be, to increase density and stimulate the town.”

Mayor Larry Cross said while it’s difficult to judge how council-lors feel about the proj-ect, in general he said it meets the Town’s objectives on density in the downtown core.

“The units here are also not high-end (refer-ring to cost),” Cross

added, “but are more affordable than many others.”

Cross said council will wait until around Aug. 14 for the APC is give its comments and recommendations, after which council will discuss its merits. He added other issues might come up, includ-ing reaction from the neighbours.

In 2012 when the original plan was being debated, nearby resi-

dents had spoken against the building’s height.

Rogers said if the approvals process at the municipality goes smoothly, the proj-ect could be given the green light as early as mid-August. If so, he said construction could begin in Novem-ber. That timeline could change to the following spring, he continued, depending on the pro-cess and fall weather.

VICTORIA — If the teacher strike isn’t settled by September, the B.C. government will use the payroll savings to pay $40 per missed school day to parents of children under 13, Finance Min-ister Mike de Jong said Thurs-day.

Negotiations with the B.C. Teachers’ Federation remain stalled after a two-week strike in June that cost the province’s 40,000 public school teachers $12 million a day in salary. That’s the estimated cost of the support program aimed to go to tutoring or daycare for younger children if they can’t go to school.

De Jong said older children don’t require as much supervi-sion, and have online options to maintain their studies if the labour dispute takes more instructional time away. The amount was chosen to compen-sate families of 300,000 children up to age 12 in public school at no net cost to the provincial budget.

Parents would have to register online to be eligible for compen-sation, to be paid by October.

De Jong said there are five weeks remaining in the summer break for most public schools to reach a settlement with the

BCTF, and he hopes the program won’t be needed.

BCTF president Jim Iker termed the move “a blatant and divisive attempt to prolong disruption in B.C. schools” and renewed his call for a mediator to help bridge the differences between the government and the union.

Education Minister Peter Fassbender and school district negotiators say the BCTF’s con-tract demands are far out of step with other unions, particularly on increased classroom prepa-ration time and other benefit improvements.

The long-running dispute over class size and special needs sup-

port is headed back to court this fall.

De Jong reiterated that there is no plan to recall the B.C. leg-islature before a fall session scheduled to begin Oct. 6. He said the history of imposed of settlements on the BCTF may have contributed to the chronic failure to negotiate agreements with the union.

NDP education critic Rob Fleming called the announce-ment a “trial balloon” that sug-gests the dispute may be months away from resolution.

“I think parents are going to look at this and say, ‘you know what, school is not daycare’,” Fleming said.

$40 a day for parents if teachers strike drags on, says province

Sidney’s proposed new pedestrian over-pass of Highway 17 is going to cost more after town council sought designs that improve on the looks of exist-ing facilities around the community.

Steve Price, the Sid-ney town councillor who has made the crossing one of his top priorities during his time on council, says whether the project costs the original $2.2 million or $3.5 million, it’s worth the money to increase safety at the highway.

The province has committed $1 million to the project.

The Victoria Airport Authority has thrown

in $100,000 and ICBC has come up with a contribution as well. The Town of Sidney’s share — the remaining two-thirds cost of the project — will come out of the municipal-ity’s accumulated gas tax account. Price said that means residents and businesses in Sid-ney will not face a tax increase to pay for the overpass.

Should its cost go up, however, he said the Town will have to find additional sources of funding.

“We don’t want to borrow for this,” he said, “and you cannot borrow against future gas tax revenues, so we’ll need to seek out additional funding sources.”

Price said a draft

engineering plan for the overpass is about half-complete, featuring five different configurations or scenarios. Each has its own cost associated with it.

Sidney and the prov-ince shared the cost of the $200,000 report, which could come

before council at its August 11 meeting for review.

Price said the struc-ture will be built to last 75 to 100 years and be designed to fit in with the Ministry of Trans-portation’s long-term plans for the highway at Beacon and Bevan ave-nues. Whether any part of those plans go ahead soon — or 40 years from now — Price said the overpass will be in the right place.

Asked whether recently-announced plans for commercial development on 10

acres of land west of the highway — com-monly called the gate-way project — would impact the need for the overpass, Price said it would not. He said the level crossings at High-

way 17 and Beacon Avenue would likely be eliminated, with pedes-trian traffic routed to the overpass.

“This thing is going in,” said Price, adding it has been a council priority for the last two terms.

“We’ve had a great concern for the people living in West Sidney. We’ve had a differ-ent philosophy (than previous councils).

This council, we want to look after people’s safety.”

The proposed pedes-trian overpass would be built north of Bea-con avenue. One side is on province-owned land near the McDon-ald’s restaurant court-yard, the other is municipal land on the opposite side of the highway.

VICTORIA — The B.C. government is spending $3.5 million a day to fight forest fires around the province, with the total for the year past $106 million and headed higher.

The government is bracing for bills that could reach $250 mil-lion by the end of the summer, depending on weather and fires that threaten homes. B.C.

has brought in fire-fighters from Ontario, Alberta and New Bruns-wick and issued several evacuation orders by the mid-point of the summer season.

Finance Minister Mike de Jong asked for B.C. residents to take all possible precautions and observe campfire bans through August. About 40 per cent of B.C. forest fires are human caused, with most of the rest started by lightning strikes.

Forest fire spending is already approaching totals for the last two years. Highs in the past decade are $382 million in 2009 and $371 million in 2003, when fires dam-aged Kelowna and Bar-riere.

“The possibility of the fire season consum-ing a quarter billion tax dollars is real,” de Jong said. “Whilst there is no issue about spend-ing the money, it has to come from somewhere, so that’s a cost item

that’s looking like it will be considerably more than what had been hoped for.”

B.C. forest fire bills are piling up

Cost of pedestrian overpass likely to riseSidney town councillor Steve Price says he’s OK spending more on a safe, good-looking crossing

Sidney councillor Steve Price says the overpass has been a priority for six years.

“We’ve had a different philosophy (that previous councils). This council, we want to look after people’s safety.”

OUR VIEW

The B.C. government’s move to ease liquor restrictions is undergoing its hot summer test and music festivals are only part of it.

Premier Christy Clark’s government loves its populist gestures and as with increasing rural highway speed limits, the negative effects have yet to be quantified.

Free-range drinking, or removing fences from festival beer gardens, is one of the moves that will be undergoing a post-mortem as communities clean up after their big summer parties.

One of the biggest, the Squamish Valley Music Festival, is still to come, Aug. 8 to 10. Country fans gathered over the long weekend for Sunfest in the Cowichan Valley, with the Rockin’ River Musicfest in Mission coming up next.

(Another big bash next weekend is Shambhala, the popular electronic music event on a farm near Nelson, but alcohol is officially banned there and their big issue is controlling the effects of “ecstasy” and other rave drugs.)

Early reviews of free-range festivals have been positive. Victoria’s Rock the Shores event went smoothly without a fenced-in area for alcohol sales. Festival organizers did create a fenced “dry” area, but I’m told hardly anyone used it.

Penticton has had its share of experience with summer bashes gone bad. For B.C. Day it inherited the Boonstock Music and Arts festival, sent packing from a small community in Alberta after complaints of rowdy crowds and crime, so Penticton officials were understandably cautious.

Boonstock organizers were refused a provincial liquor licence after struggling to arrange security and emergency services. The festival licence process is likely getting renewed attention these days.

After attending the recent Calgary Folk Festival, where the beer garden was securely fenced and the capacity monitored, I’m wondering what is really achieved by these measures. Litter

and empties were contained, but since under-aged festival visitors are allowed into the serving area, it’s not clear to me whether the fence was ever worth the effort.

It’s unlikely that there will be riots at farm markets as a result of allowing sales of locally made beer, wine and spirits, or from relaxing rules for operation of winery tasting rooms. But there are more reforms to come.

New regulations are on the way for the Agricultural Land Reserve.

As it stands, farms are allowed to have a winery or cidery, but not

a brewery or distillery. Expect that to be changed as B.C. and other provinces strive to develop their craft beer and spirits industry, trying to emulate the tourism benefits that have come from an expanding wine industry.

One area where the B.C. government has screwed up is its minimum pricing rules, introduced along with the overdue move to allow “happy hour” discounts in pubs.

The minimum price of 25 cents an ounce for beer, 60 cents an ounce for wine and $3 an ounce for hard liquor was an effort to balance business-friendly policy with legitimate public health concern about over-consumption.

But the minimum beer price prompted protests from a few watering holes that had been selling pints or jugs of beer for slightly less. Some media made a big deal of this, and the government over-reacted to this tempest in a beer stein with an ill-thought-out cut in the minimum price to 20 cents an ounce – for beer in jugs only.

The pub industry was not impressed with this bit of knee-jerk populism. Encouraging beer jug sales makes it difficult to see if someone at a table of revelers is being over-served, drinking most of the jug himself.

Reaching the other sideA

re residents of Sidney prepared to use a new pedestrian overpass of the Pat Bay Highway?

Town of Sidney councillor Steve Price is betting they will, for their

safety’s sake.Plans for a new overhead walkway are

coming to fruition after more than six years in the works. It could be much longer than that, if one considers the need for a pedestrian walkway close to downtown since the highway split Sidney in two back

in the 1960s.Two

walkways have already been built south

of town and north. The latest one will be located slightly north of Beacon Avenue and cost upwards of $2.2 million — or more than that should council seek a design that will help show off the beauty of the community. The cost is covered by gas taxes collected by the municipality as well as $1m from the province and more cash from ICBC and the Victoria Airport Authority.

At the same time, the question has to be asked: will this proposed overpass become redundant when a new commercial project proceeds on 10 acres of land right across the highway from the Mary Winspear Centre? There is already a level pedestrian crossing along Beacon Avenue over the highway. Won’t most people take the straightest path?

Not according to Price, a long-time advocate for the pedestrian overpass. He said the existing level crosswalk would be closed when the commercial land is developed and people will be directed to the nearby overpass.

That’s going to take a lot of education and even active prevention of people taking the path of least resistance. Making sure pedestrians are safe is a good thing.

Hopefully this project makes it easier to reach the other side.

‘It’s unlikely that there will be riots at farm markets.’

Council’s best strategy

It would appear from the latest Town Talk news letter that the mayor has taken the opportunity in his message, in light of the looming elec-tion, to compose a defense against recent criticisms of his under-standing and inac-tion on the economic issues facing Sidney’s downtown.

The mayor’s origi-nal position was to let the downtown busi-nesses solve their own problems. However, this position gave way under heavy criticism. It was only then that he established the Mayor’s Task Force for Downtown Revitaliza-tion.

If it were not for the SBIA and the business acumen they could offer, the mayor and council would continue to flounder on this issue.

Despite this help they remain slow to act and aside from some ill conceived expenditure on benches there has been little in the way of tangible results. Many of the ideas offered up are not new and many of the new ideas are not difficult for coun-cil to implement. Yet here we are still read-ing about all the good intentions.

People will be left to consider these well-publicized good inten-

tions at election time in November when they should be voting based on this councils past deeds. Considering their past deeds this is probably council’s best strategy.

Ed EastSidney

Good location for First Nations cultural centre

We find it truly amaz-ing that the old Cap-tains Table and Mineral World building should be vacant for such a long time.

It’s a thor-oughly desirable loca-tion and it’s sitting there empty. What a waste to the tax payers of Sidney.

There are no adver-tisement signs in the windows even after Grant Rogers said it would be advertised after the TV filming folded up.

The Town of Sid-ney should have a clause in any lease they might be entering

into with a tenant that the lease should only be vacated or trans-ferred with the permis-sion of the Town.

After reading the let-ter ‘First Nations cul-ture centre could help’, what a very good loca-tion for it.

The whole area could be a good tour-ist attraction, including the Shaw Ocean Dis-covery Centre and Peb-bles. The big Yellow school busses bring lots of people every day to visit this area.

Acts of kindnessThis idea, if it were

put into action, could make Sidney famous for all the right rea-sons.

It is not an original idea, but making it work on a large scale might be the start of something wonderful.

Sidney’s Mayor could declare a week in, say May, as Random

Kindness Week.There are a thou-

sand acts of kindness that people can think up and if they do, the world will be a happier, kinder and lovelier place. And as a bonus you will feel positively marvellous yourself!

Re: PNR letters July 11, Solu-tion to East Saanich/Mt. Newton traffic.

The origin of the problem is partly the astounding number of east bound cars accessing Mt. Newton X Road at West Saa-nich Road headed for the Pat Bay Highway and vice versa.

Stop the abuse of the narrow (designated heritage) portion of Mount Newton X Road (MNX). Traffic can be reduced to a man-ageable flow if transit is less attractive. Less traffic, less con-fusion and a safer intersection for everyone.

Avoidance of the overpass at McTavish Road funnels driv-ers onto MNX Road It is now the Peninsula transit of choice for anyone on the west side to access the highway. Every day it is worse. People drive at West Saanich Road speeds on a very

narrow undulating road ignor-ing speed limits, blind spots, intersections, school zone, cyclists, pedestrians and hard-to-spot driveways. They arrive at East Saanich Road aimed at the highway with no thought to the cross roads.

Over-sized trucks make a mockery of signage advising no trucks on MNX Road between West Saanich and Wallace roads. They add to the volume of frustrated traffic. It all bottle-necks at East Saanich Road and Mount Newton X Road.

Lower posted speeds, a double yellow no passing line, speed bumps east of West Saa-nich Road at Thompson and west of Saanichton school, would frustrate those who see MNX Road as nothing more than a scenic unpatrolled high-way access.

Speed bumps east of East Saanich Road would be more difficult due to legitimate com-mercial traffic.

To lower the traffic volume, enforce a 40 km/hr. speed limit on its entire length.

Make Mount Newton X Road an untenable alternative for those seeking a short cut and the municipality will not have to invest in another roundabout.

It is the old KISS prin-ciple: Keep it simple. Paint, signage, speed bumps, police enforcement. Oblivious, con-fused or aggressive drivers who are inconvenienced will need to use care, or perhaps choose an alternate route.

Less traffic less risk to all who use the roads, not only pedes-trians.

Bed Races on Beacon


The Pedal Pushers will use their cycling legs to run in the Bed Races on Beacon this month. From left are Mandy, Mike, Bonnie Mitchell (The Devil), Diane, Craig and Arthur van Deth. All are members of the Tuesday Night Ride Group.

Pedal Pushers readyCycling group will be tough to beatSteven HeywoodNews staff

Members of the Tuesday Night Ride Group have formed a bed race team called the Pedal Pushers — and they have a little devil in them.

Bonnie Mitchell says the group has been riding Peninsula-area roads since 2007 and now numbers around 40 active members. All of that leg power, she said, will be tough to beat in the Bed Races on Beacon on August 17.

Arthur Van Deth, a rider, says they entered the bed races on the insis-tence of another member who works in health care. The bed races are being held to raise money for the Rest Haven Lodge palliative care facility.

The Devil, is the Pedal Pushers’ theme and Mitchell says it suits them.“We all have a little devil in us somewhere.”Bed Races on Beacon take place Sun., Aug. 17 between 12 and 4 p.m.

on Beacon Avenue in Sidney. Races go between Fifth and Third streets.


August is one busy month for gardeners. So much to do: harvesting, washing off the dirt, peeling, coring, freezing or bottling, or just storing things, such as ripe apples.

It’s a bit overwhelming, especially when its so hot, but think of all the pleasure to be had later and you’ll hardly notice the perspiration running down your back!

A hint about storing apples: To make sure they are ripe, split one in half and if the seeds are brown, the apples are ripe.

If there are apples falling on the ground, they are also ready. Pick and store them in cardboard boxes in the coolest place you can find (under the house, maybe). If you are troubled with rats, I’d put the apples in heavy duty plastic containers, put-ting a thick layer of newspaper between layers (remember the story of the one rotten apple that spoiled all the others?).

Apples emit a strong scent which may be used to ripen other fruit.

Put a ripe apple in a bag with green bananas, close the bag tightly and presto! Ripe bananas. (Please, this is not immediate, it takes a day or so.)

To make sure winter squash are ripe, try to puncture the skin with a fingernail. If you break the nail, the squash is not ripe (and you’ve ruined your finger nail). If it is ripe, do cut it off close to the vine, leaving the stem attached.

Squash need to be “hardened off” after harvesting. This requires leaving them out in the sun after picking, up off the soil (bringing them in, if rain threatens) for a week or 10 days. I used to wash them off with dish soap and water immediately after harvesting to be sure no fungus was present, but do dry them immediately to prevent mildew getting started.

Squash may also be “hardened off” by putting them on news-papers in a cupboard in a warm place (above the kitchen stove).

“Hardening off” enhances that delectable squash flavour.

Talking about delicious flavour, Don took me to Sil-ver Rill Farm where I bought the first ripe corn of the season. It was bliss! And to think the corn season goes on until early October! Marvelous!

My darling husband, an Englishman, could never understand my love affair with corn, which he was certain was only properly used as cattle food. I finally convinced him to try just one taste and he had to admit it did taste remarkably good. But he never became a real fan.

Remember the lily we talked about last week? I wish I’d been able to move it into the shade, because it lasted only four days and then, in a temper, cast off all but two petals.

Now it needs to be kept watered and occasionally fertilized for at least another month (or more) to build up the bulb for next year’s bloom.

You can stop watering it when leaves and stalk turn yellow. I’m annoyed with it.

It hardly seems fair to demand all this fussing for a mere four short flowering days. There is just too much sunshine on the balcony but there is no choice unless I move and that would require much more energy from me than it deserves.

Fortunately there is another lily in bud, but its an orange colour with a much less dramatic flower. It is a fiesta strain but maybe it will sur-prise me and be glorious.

I’m not holding my breath waiting for this to happen. I remind myself that it is going to flower and that’s something to look forward to.

On that note I’ll have to leave you and begin my daily chores — which include half-filling the watering can and staggering out to water those thirsty plants before the sun reaches round to fill the balcony with an entire afternoon of blistering heat, until my poor, precious plants collapse from sun stroke!

Tolerance to bright lightIf you wear glasses or contact lenses and have

a low tolerance to bright light, you may want to consider getting properly prescribed sunglasses for your vision comfort. Your eyebrows, eyelids, and iris, which is the coloured part of the eye, offer some protection from sunlight and glare, but if bright or glaring light bothers your eyes, you may need the added protection of sunglasses.

Certain occupations such as outside work or driving may benefi t from sunglass protection. Sunlight provides the light we need to see objects clearly, but it also emits two invisible forms of radiation, ultraviolet and infrared rays. A low tolerance to bright light or over-exposure to the rays of the sun may cause minor eye irritation while prolonged exposure may cause more serious problems.

You want to be able to see clearly and comfortably no matter what the light conditions and you also want to protect your eyes. Ask your eye doctor as to which sunglass is the most appropriate for you.

A recent graduate of Stelly’s Secondary School was awarded the Trevor Linden Community Spirit Scholarship. Melissa Lyon, 18, is an active volunteer in the community whose goal is to become a teacher and positively influence the lives of people with disabilities.

The Trevor Linden Scholar-ship is awarded to students with outstanding leadership abilities and has made exemplary con-tributions to the enrichment of lives in the community.

This was only one of 11 schol-arships Lyon won in 2014.

Many of Lyon’s community involvements are related to teaching, which she calls her passion.

Four years ago, Lyon started an online primary learning club, which involves online tutoring via webcam. She calls this one of her biggest accomplishments.

With some guidance from her mother who is a teacher, Lyon creates lessons for math and reading.

“It’s very fun for me, because I like teaching [and] I’m really

good at technology,” said Lyon.She currently has one student,

whom she has tutored since the student was in kindergarten and who is now going into Grade 4.

“I like teaching kids,” said Lyon. “I have a big passion for learning.”

Lyon said she wants to gain as much experience teaching as she can before starting her

career. Lyon is also a tutor for the Tools for Success program at the University of Victoria, in partnership with the Victoria Epilepsy and Parkinson’s Centre. It is a tutoring program for kids who have epilepsy.

Stefani Lowes, tutor with the Epilepsy Centre at UVic, worked with Lyon during this past school year.

“She was always very positive and happy,” said Lowes. “She brought a wonderful energy to the group.”

Having epilepsy and cerebral palsy herself, Lyon said she has been misjudged throughout her whole life. She wants to change the way society sees people with disabilities.

One way she does this is by her involvement as an ambas-sador and public speaker for the United Way and the Victoria Epi-lepsy and Parkinson’s Centre.

“I want to be a strong advo-cate for people who have dis-abilities,” said Lyon.

Lyon will be attending Camo-sun College in September and hopes to transfer to the Uni-versity of Victoria to become a teacher, or specifically a special needs teacher.

This is the fourth in a series on the variety of summer markets on the Saanich Peninsula

Devon MacKenzieNews staff

K nown as one of Sidney’s biggest summer events,

the Sidney Street Mar-ket draws between 3,000 and 5,000 people to the town each week, said market organizer Laurie McDermid of Westcoast Impressions Event Planning.

“It’s a very balanced market,” McDermid said, adding that she has been working over the last two years to ensure there’s a variety of vendors each week.

“We have a large selection of vendors this year, more than we’ve ever had before and we are focusing more on things that are made locally like home made baking, jams, sweets, clothing and jewellery,” she said.

McDermid continued to say that the market has also kept a keen focus on locally grown

produce as well as a great selection of food vendors.

“Our focus is to bring in change every week,” said McDermid.

“Some vendors alter-nate and the musical entertainment alter-nates week to week,” she said.

The market, which is run by the Town of Sid-ney (McDermid works on contract for them) features 145 vendors who line Beacon Ave-nue every Thursday from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. until Aug. 28.

“There is a terrific team of staff and vol-

unteers which the mar-ket could not function without. I call them the dream team,” McDer-mid laughed, adding that team includes the Town of Sidney.

“It really couldn’t happen without them,” she said.

Sidney Mayor Larry Cross said the event is one that Sidney has become known for.

“The Sidney Street Market has grown over the last 15 years to become an anchor event in Sidney,” he said.

“It is an important community owned and operated event that draws thousands to the area and has a signifi-cant economic impact on our town.”

Ultimately, McDer-mid equates much of the success of the mar-ket to its location.

“What it really comes down to is that Sidney is the perfect location. It has so many beauti-ful shops and the mar-

ket is really set in the heart of the town. That makes it special,” she said.

The Blessing of the Animals has become an annual ritual at more than one church in Greater Victoria.

But it’s new to Reverend Rob Szo, who moved here with his wife and two kids from Toronto in 2012.

He’ll be doing his second blessing of the animals on the grounds of St. Stephen’s Church, beginning at 2 p.m. on Aug. 10.

“I’d heard of it before but was never part of it until last year,” Szo said.

There’s more to the event than its quirky moments, when vicars use careful tact to bless animals like dogs, cats, llamas, chicks and lizards, Szo said.

Donations received during the blessing will benefit the Pacific Animal Therapy Society, a cause Szo supports.

“It’s an opportunity to meet people, get to know people, have some fun as well, and to recog-nize and bless the part these ani-mals play as they bring bring a lot of joy into people’s lives.”

PATS volunteers bring their pets for visits to hospitals, retire-ment facilities, group homes, schools, preschools, daycares and more.

“Pets can bring a lot of joy to people who are lonely,” Szo said.

As for the odd assortment of animals that are likely to come in for a blessing, Szo says he is ready for anything.

“I prefer to touch the animal if I can, though they tell me

they’ve had snakes before, I’m not so sure about (touching) a snake,” Szo laughed.

“I’m just blessing what God has already blessed. God made these creative creatures, and it’s a neat part of my ministry.”

The Blessing of the Animals takes place Sunday, Aug. 10 at 2 p.m. outdoors at St. Stephen’s Church (located at 7921 St. Ste-phen Rd., off Mt. Newton X Road).

Please bring animals on a leash or in a carrier.

Everyone is welcome to attend and the event takes place rain or shine.

Annual Heart Walk in Sidney raises $10,000 for local hospitalsSteven HeywoodNews staff

Folks on the Saanich Peninsula have a lot of heart and they proved it once again at this year’s Heart Walk for the First Open Heart Society.

People opened their hearts and donated more than $10,000 during the Walk, held June 8 in Sidney. Since the society was formed and began hosting the Walk, they’ve raised more than $3 million for heart health programs and medical services at Victoria’s Jubilee Hospital and the Saanich Peninsula Hospital.

Walk organizer and Society mem-ber George Coldwell says most of the funds raised go towards the upkeep of their Heart House. It’s a place to stay that’s close to the Jubilee Hos-pital, for families of patients under-going medical treatment for heart-related health conditions.

“People have been really impressed

with what we have there,” he said.Heart House offers a comfortable

place to stay at a reasonable cost. It caters mostly to out-of-area families.

“It’s a place where people can be a support to each other,” Coldwell added. “We’re really proud of the place.”

Money raised at this year’s Walk was split between the Saanich Pen-insula Hospital for some electro-diag-nostic equipment for heart-related conditions ($4,000), the Mt. Newton Centre ($1,500 for personal medical information containers), the Jubille and the Victoria Heart Institute.

Coldwell, who went through heart surgery himself years ago, said tech-nology and medical procedures have changed a lot over the years. The money the society raises, he contin-ued, helps local hospitals keep up.

For Coldwell and his wife Agnes, this year was their last Heart Walk as the main organizers. George said he’s moving on but will help the Society keep the event going. He credits the volunteers, Town of Sidney and the surrounding community for making the event such a fantastic success.

PARKSVILLE — Effective at noon on Aug. 1, 2014, campfires are once again prohibited in all areas of the Coastal Fire Centre, with the exception of Haida Gwaii and the coastal area known as the “fog zone.”

The Coastal Fire Centre is implementing this campfire ban due to increasing temperatures and no precipitation in the forecast.

The following uses will not be allowed: • campfires, as defined by the wildfire regulation• open fires in an outdoor stoveThis prohibition does not apply to CSA-rated or

ULC-rated cooking stoves that use gas, propane or briquettes, or to a portable campfire apparatus that uses briquettes, liquid or gaseous fuel, so long as the height of the flame is less than 15 centime-tres. — Coastal Fire Centre

Campfires banned again

Members of Team B.C. who attended the 2014 North Ameri-can Indigenous Games (NAIG) in Regina last month have made history by becoming the first team to win both the Overall Team Title and the John Fletcher Spirit Award.

Team B.C., including eight young First Nations athletes from the Saanich Peninsula, competed in 13 sports and won a total of 160 medals (63 gold, 49 Silver and 48 bronze) between July 20 and 27.

The medal count put the team in first place (only one medal ahead of Team Saskatchewan) which was a first time occur-rence for Team B.C. at the NAIG.

The team was also the recipi-ent of the John Fletcher Spirit Award which is presented annu-ally to the contingent that best demonstrates the spirit of team-work, fair play, respect and integ-rity throughout the week.

“It was a real nail-biter,” said Lara Mussell, Team B.C.’s Chef de Mission.

“We exchanged the lead with Team Saskatchewan several times throughout the Games and it came down to the last few events of the final day. What makes this win even more spe-cial was also being awarded the John Fletcher Spirit Award. The team’s performance, perse-verance and conduct, both on and off the field, exemplified the ideals of the North American

Indigenous Games: The Spirit—Strong, Brave, True.”

The North American Indige-nous Games is an international multi-sport event, involving North American Indigenous ath-letes from 13 provinces and ter-ritories Canada and 13 regions in the United States, staged inter-mittently since 1990. This year 4,800 Indigenous athletes and coaches and 200 cultural per-formers attended the games.

Local athletes Ambrose Underwood, Landon Under-wood and Shyquintin Charlie came fourth with the Men’s U16

Lacrosse Team andRob Charlie came fifth with

the U19 Lacrosse Team.Brittney Sam came 13th in

Canoe Pulling while Hannah Morris took bronze in Women’s U18 Soccer and Kayleigh Glad-stone brought home gold in Women’s U16 Softball.

As summer sports go, inline hockey is per-fect for warm weather — and for playing at a large tournament in the desert in Las Vegas.

Josh Buchner, 16, from Central Saanich is a goaltender for the B.C. Knights, an inline hockey team made up of players from across the province. His dad, Doug, says five of the players came from Prince George, two are from the lower mainland and three — including Josh — are from Vancouver Island.

This is Josh’s second trip to Vegas with a B.C. team, Doug said. The first trip was last year with the Eagle Ridge team out of Langford,

where Josh is a regular member. This summer, however, Eagle Ridge could not put a full team together so the

Knights were pulled in from across the land.

Down in Vegas July 9 to 17, the tournament was really two events in

one, said Doug — the AAU Junior Olympics and Federation of Inter-national Roller Sports tournament. In all, the team played 12 games.

In the AAU event, the B.C. squad went 4-0-2 and defeated a team from California in the final to win gold.

Over the next six-game tournament, Doug said the B.C. boys did well to make the final, but lost to a team from Alberta to claim a silver medal.

Last year, Josh was part of the Eagle Ridge team that won gold and silver medals as well.

Inline hockey is played on roller blades with a puck. There’s no body checking, said Doug, so it make for a wide open, skillful game.
