Heather King's Eveready Mayoral Candidate: Day 16

Thursday, July 14, 2011
Ring, the alarm goes off, the race is on! Here is how Heather's day looked! It's exhausting, sit down and grab something cold to drink, while you read this.

Meeting #1: She started her day as a guest at the Rotary Club of Tsawwassen and Point Roberts – 6:45 AM breaky meeting. She  thoroughly enjoyed herself. The Rotary have a high-standard ethical test called The Four-Way Test. Heather was excited, because those are all principles that she highly endorses and supports. (Membership Guy,  Keith Dinwoodie, it sounds like you may have a wanabee member here.)

 

I pinched this from their website…  Of the things we think, say or do:
1.      Is it the TRUTH?
2.      Is it FAIR to all concerned?
3.      Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS?
4.      Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned

***My 2 cents worth: the Rotary club of Tsawwassen and Point Bobs sponsored my daughter to go to a youth leadership camp in Terrace last year.  Rotary Youth Leadership Awards (RYLA) are amazing.  Because of RYLA, my daughter started attending the Rotary Youth Club in South Delta Secondary School called InterAct. At the beginning of this month she went  to an Environment Youth Leadership Camp called “Get Outside BC” sponsored by CPAWS BC. On August 12 each of the 40 youth from the CPAWS BC 
camp will be hosting their own youth event. These events are designted to encourage other BC youth to “Get Outside” and enjoy our province. Thanks Rotary Club of Tsawwassen and Point Bobs for igniting the spark and sending her to RYLA last year. I believe that's "Hats off to Excellence for you!"

Meeting #2: A mystery meeting with a supporter from the agriculture industry – honest, I am not holding back on you, but that’s all she was prepared to tell me “at this time”. Stay tuned.

Meeting #3: At the Boundary Bay Airport with BBay airport manager, Greg Fong. They discussed the airport’s needs and how council can be supportive of them.

Meeting #4: Lunch date with two of her favourite men! – sorry, no dirt on her -  she was meeting her sons for lunch.

Meeting #5: She topped off her day with a Heritage Advisory Committee meeting. They brainstormed creative solutions for the same old issue: “How to preserve Heritage sites from demolition, when funding is low to non-existent.”

If you’re going to try to keep up with the Eveready Mayor Candidate, don’t forget to pack extra sneakers and lipstick (just in case Heather forgets hers!) Good luck.

Oh my  gosh - I need a nap.
