Recently, I had the opportu-
nity to dine in the Stelly’s
Dining Room. This unique res-
taurant, run by students, has an
impressive selection and
friendly service.

Career Prep 12 students,
many who aspire to enter the
gourmet cooking field, prepare
the main entrees. The Cafeteria
10 students complete short
orders and serve customers.

Stelly’s Dining Room cus-
tomers can enjoy the quiet and
professional setting, and choose
from a wide selection of soups,
salads, appetizers, entrees,
deserts, and an extensive vari-
ety of beverages including cof-
fee, gourmet teas, fruit juices
and so on. Nothing on the
menu exceeds $3.80.

The Dining Room is open to
the public Tuesday to Thursday
from 11:30 a.m. and reserva-
tions may be made by calling
652-4401, local 115.

The committee for Stelly’s
second annual healthy living
conference, “Putting the Pieces

Dining in style at Stelly’s

Together for the “90s,” is very
busy as the date of the confer-
ence, March 26th, draws closer

Grade 11 and 12 students
will participate in the day’s
activities. The keynote speech
is by psychiatrist Dr. Jim Ricks
on how attitudes affect well-
being.

Following the keynote
speech, students will attend
sessions of their choice, such
as: Is it Really Love? Time

Management, Your Future, and

Getting Through the Bad
Times. In the afternoon, all the
students will gather again for a
panel discussion.

Some committee members of
Stelly’s attended a similar con-
ference, “On The Road to a
Better You’, at Claremont on
February 20th for an exchange
of ideas.

They extend a warm wel-
come to the organizers to attend
“Putting the Pieces Together,”
in return for their hospitality.

The school board has
approved the fourth annual
“Ambassador's Tour,” an edu-
cational and fun-filled trip for
Grade 10 and 11 honors stu-
dents. This year’s destination is
Eugene, Oregon.

Plans include an overnight
Stay in Seattle, a tour of the
University of Oregon, a visit to
a local high school, and much
more. Fundraising activities
will start soon to offset the
estimated cost of $300 Cdn.

Venya Heath placed first in
the Brentwood Bay Rotary
Speech Contest and will partic-
ipate in a leadership conference
in Otiawa. Amrick Birke, who
came in second, will be travel-
ling to Tacoma, Washington.

Sidney approves
PEMO’s budget

The Peninsula Emergency
Measures Organization received
$8,500 initial funding from Sidney
council Feb. 18 and a promise to
consider giving $2,200 more after
1991 budget deliberations.

PEMO co-ordinator Dick Reyn-
olds is asking for $10,733.33 from
each of the Peninsula municipalit-
ies — up 24 per cent from last
year — to pay for 50 per cent of a
$12,000 truck, operating expenses
and other capital expenditures.

Council members applauded
Reynolds for the work he has done
with the organization but ques-
tioned the increase in his total
budget to $32,200.

Reynolds explained that an
additional $6,000 is to pay for half
the cost ofa tandem-axle tractor
unit that will be used to pull
PEMO’s mobile command centre
trailer, should a $6,000 grant
application to the federal govern-
ment be approved.

The proposed budget is reduced
by $3,600 in provincial grants and
a $3,000 surplus from last year.
Central Saanich has also agreed to
fund the program’s 1991 budget.

In other emergency program
news, a desktop emergency
response exercise is scheduled for
April 24 to coincide with Emer-
gency Preparedness Week, April
22-26.

To be held at the Sidney Silver
Threads, the exercise will respond
to potential disaster situations with
many people working on an earth-
quake scenario, Reynolds said.

Personnel at the federal, provin-
cial and municipal level will be
involved along with staff from the
school district, hospital, health
department, media and various
private firms. - ;

second-place finish for HtO against top-ranked teams

The Peninsula-based HtO Got-
cha volleyball team overcame
some of the best teams in the

Pacific Northwest to place second .

in ifs group at a prestigious Van-
couver tournament, Saturday.

Team spokesman Lorne Chan
said his team won three games,
tied one and lost two games at the
B.C. Volleyball Association Tier 1
Invitational event in Vancouver.

“We did really well considering
we were up against some top
national and varsity players from
all over the Pacific Northwest,”
Chan said.

The absence of two of his team’s
key players due to injury didn’t
hamper the Gotcha squad too
much, he said.

“We only had six players but
our passing was good and we were
able to use our whole offensive
arsenal,” he said.

The team’s only real weak spot
was in blocking due to the absence
of six-foot-seven Andy Jariz.

Having won a berth to the quar-
ter final of the tournament, Gotcha
“just ran out of steam” as the team
went down 15-10, 15-12 to Vic-
toria team Farwest Nandor, he
said.

The team’s only other loss was
on points difference after it split a
match with Seattle Redsand —
winning one game 15-13 and los-
ing the next 15-9.

The team’s shorthanded victory
over the highly-ranked three other
opponents was a tribute to the
Gotcha squad’s mettle, Chan said.

“We came from behind most
times and it showed a lot of
character. It was a real team effort
and we really supported each
other,” Chan said.

Gothca dumped Douglas Col-
lege 15-5, 15-6 and also defeated
Victoria-based Team Offshore 15-

12, 15-9.

The Peninsula squad edged Van-
couver team Quicksilver 15-11,

15-13, too.
Gotcha’s outstanding player was
middle blocker Steve Podmorrow.
