Kiwanis Club of Victoria Annual DuesIt's that Time of Year Again

Because of the increases in cost of office supplies, stamps, telephone, and otherincidental items, your Board of Directors had considered increasing the Annual Dues thisyear. However, we are hopeful the Annual Christmas Party & Fundraiser and otherincidental Administrative fund raisers will continue to be successful. As a result we areholding the line at $130.00 per member. Exceptions include some Kiwanis Village tenantsand 'husband and wife or family of two teams': two for $230.00.

Please pay the Treasurer or Secretary by cash or cheque on or before September 30th2013. {Kiwanis year: October 1, 2013 to September 30, 2014}

In RemembranceTerry NIELSEN: June 25, 1965 to July 27, 2013Terry is survived by loving wife, Tanya Harmon, step-sons Jonathon and

Cody, father Butch Nielsen and his partner Hilary, mother Suzan Clancy, sisterKelly Nielsen, brother and sister Kelly James and Keshia Clancy, and nephewKeifer. Terry was a passionate advocate of fish farming as an essential alternativeto wild stock fishing. He loved surfing the breaks around Tofino, and was agifted and avid runner. He had competed in the Royal Victoria Marathon. Hegave tremendously of himself to his local and global communities through hisinvolvement in the Strathcona Sunrise Rotary, where he served as President from2012 to 2013.

Terry's passing is of particular interest to our Kiwanis Club because hisfather, Butch Nielsen was a three time President of the Kiwanis Club of Victoria,2002,2003 and 2005. Butch contributed very much time and energy to our Club,especially in our Wheels Program, the Kiwanis Emergency Youth Shelter andKiwanis House. Butch and Hilary were also responsible for the publishing of ourClub's newsletter, The Builder, for many years.

The members of the Kiwanis Club of Victoria extend heartfelt sympathy tothe Nielsen family on the passing of Terry.

Club SpeakerAuthor Linda Foubister Spoke about Myths of VictoriaLinda said that 'Myths' are generally meaningful stories. Myths can help

build community in three ways: by developing shared understanding, linking tohuman nature, and sharing action. Foubister talked about the myths of theearliest inhabitant of Victoria. The Coast Salish people told stories about Haylsthe Transformer who changed people and animals into their present forms.According to myth, a transformer rock at Harling Point was once a sealharpooner. When James Douglas arrived in 1843 to start the construction of aHudson's Bay fort in Camosack harbour, a comet appeared for five nights.Comets have had mythical implications since ancient times.

Victoria's architecture features foliate faces, suggesting the link betweennature and humans. These faces can be found on the Temple Building at 525 FortStreet, the Pemberton Building at 1000 Government Street, and the ParliamentBuildings. Foubister ended her presentation with a quote about how similar themessage in ancient time stories is to today's message about caring for ourenvironment.

Club members thanked Linda Foubister for her very interesting andinformative presentation.
