1
00:00:00,210 --> 00:00:01,410
- We would like to give credit

2
00:00:01,410 --> 00:00:05,020
to a fantastic local Parksville
business, Buckerfield's.

3
00:00:05,020 --> 00:00:06,660
Andrew and Barb do so much

4
00:00:06,660 --> 00:00:09,030
for the North Island
Wildlife Recovery Center,

5
00:00:09,030 --> 00:00:10,848
and we can't thank them enough.

6
00:00:10,848 --> 00:00:14,015
(lively tribal music)

7
00:00:17,784 --> 00:00:18,779
(people cheering)

8
00:00:18,779 --> 00:00:21,946
(soft, melodic music)

9
00:00:28,044 --> 00:00:28,877
This is Andrew,

10
00:00:28,877 --> 00:00:31,230
he's the owner of Buckerfield's
here in Parksville,

11
00:00:31,230 --> 00:00:34,460
and he's been helping
NIWRA for a very long time.

12
00:00:34,460 --> 00:00:37,580
What prompted you to
first start helping us,

13
00:00:37,580 --> 00:00:38,520
and get involved?

14
00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:40,630
- At Buckerfield's here we've
been involved with NIRWA

15
00:00:40,630 --> 00:00:42,660
for quite a number of years,

16
00:00:42,660 --> 00:00:44,460
and I think we have a lot of similarities

17
00:00:44,460 --> 00:00:47,830
in that a lot of the people
that come into the center

18
00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:51,060
are interested in the same animals

19
00:00:51,060 --> 00:00:53,470
that you'd be dealing with
at the wildlife center.

20
00:00:53,470 --> 00:00:55,350
We have customers that are passionate

21
00:00:55,350 --> 00:00:58,370
about anything from say
a rabbit or a guinea pig,

22
00:00:58,370 --> 00:01:00,410
all the way through to cats and dogs,

23
00:01:00,410 --> 00:01:01,810
and even up to wild birds,

24
00:01:01,810 --> 00:01:04,575
so we have a unique fit there

25
00:01:04,575 --> 00:01:07,200
that we have between
the two organizations.

26
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:08,100
- We really appreciate

27
00:01:08,100 --> 00:01:09,950
the support you've given to the center,

28
00:01:09,950 --> 00:01:14,280
and everything we've got,
from big tents for our events,

29
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:18,130
sponsoring an ad in the
PQB News on our behalf,

30
00:01:18,130 --> 00:01:20,580
and also donating food for the animals.

31
00:01:20,580 --> 00:01:23,410
So the next time you're looking
for that something special

32
00:01:23,410 --> 00:01:26,460
for you're home, you're
yard, or even you're pet.

33
00:01:26,460 --> 00:01:29,560
- Shop local at Buckerfield's,
located in Parksville

34
00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:30,812
on the Alberni Highway.

35
00:01:30,812 --> 00:01:34,957
(bouncy, playful music)

36
00:01:34,957 --> 00:01:37,624
(melodic sting)
