Trust debates logging controls By VALORIE LENNOX Driftwood Staff Against a background of fully- laden logging trucks rumbling off Denman Island, Islands Trust Council members last week debat­ ed how to control tree cutting and logging on the Gulf Islands. Underlining the issue were pre­ sentations from a dozen Denman Island residents at the council's quarterly meeting Friday, all of whom objected to the "clear-cut­ ting" of approximately one-third of the rural island by Boston- based John Hancock Mutual Life Insurance Corporation. Denman is not alone. "Galiano is being cut to the ground," reported Galiano trustee Debbie Holmes. Extensive logging on Gabriola and Valdes islands was also cited by trustees, who repeatedly returned to the topic during the three-day meeting. Dancing models North Pender trustee Tom Ward Molly Frenette and Dan Davies ham it up last Wednesday at for the event, held in conjunction with the facility's 18th said indiscriminate tree-cutting on Greenwoods' annual fashion show.

Speed bumps? More policing? TEducation? Various means have been suggested to control the high-speed antics of "gunnits" in the Ganges area, not to mention the rowdiness which sometimes spills over into Mouat Park and disturbs weekend campers. All are good ideas but, in practice, come up against limitations. More policing? Ganges' small RCMP detachment is already stretched to provide (almost) round-the-clock coverage to the island. Education? Interest in learning or consideration for others is rarely demonstrated by the beer and testosterone-fuelled crowd, unless their attention is first commanded by a big stick. Traffic calming road re-design? Speed bumps? We're nearing the height of the tourist season and we still have invisible crosswalks, despite longstanding promises of re-painting from the Ministry of Transportation and Highways. For a provincial organization concerned with mega-projects like the Vancouver Island Highway, Ganges crosswalks are hardly a priority. All these problems need concerted local action, something recog­ nized by the recent cooperative efforts by the regional director and local Trust committee members. But no matter how well-meaning their efforts, their jurisdictions don't extend to painting crosswalks, installing speed bumps on residential streets or lobbying for more police protection for the community — all municipal functions. In the parlance of municipal affairs ministry planners, we live in unorganized territory. Disorganized would be a better term.

Grade 11 and 12 Career and Personal Planning students have pre­ pared the show, which will feature a variety of drawings, paintings and sculptures. Also on display will be a selection of computer ani­ mation work from Dave Beits' students and fine woodworking pro­ jects from the students of Lawrie Neish. Artwork of all grades will be represented, but the graduating students will receive special focus. Next Thursday evening, Friday and Saturday, the GISS art room will become the gallery space. All parents of art students are invited to the opening from 6:45 to 8 p.m. on Thursday, where the garden pot raffle draw takes place. The show is open to the public from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Friday and Saturday. Students have not only created the artwork, but helped with pub­ licity, including planning the opening celebration, making posters, invitations and a guest/mailing list. They will also take part in assembling all display materials and arrange and hang the show. Kelly Kneister's woodworking students are making display plinths for sculptures and the cafeteria class will provide coffee and goodies for the opening celebration.
