EXT ND ED 4 Acton/Georgetown, Friday, June 6, 2008 It s down to the wire for Chelsey Oliver of Georgetown on the British show Project Catwalk currently being aired in Canada. The show, which ran in Britain earli- er this year and where the winner has already been picked, is being shown in Canada on the Slice network and Oliver, 21, has made it to the final three. Oliver, who moved to London to attend Londons College of Fashion, will compete in the final episode next week with Jasper Garvida (also a Canadian) and Viv Whelan. Each of the remaining contestants there were 13 to start with had to cre- ate a 12-piece womens wear collection to be presented on the catwalk as part of London Fashion Week. Each f inal ist was given 5,000 pounds to buy al l the material , accessories etc. for their garments and taken to a place of their choice they felt would inspire their collection. Oliver, a Georgetown Distr ict High School graduate, who is half- British, tried out for the show last year with many other fashion stu- dents. I really thought there was no way I would get in, said Oliver, from London. I did it. I did- nt hear anything for a month, then forgot about it. Last June they called her for an inter- view and after weeding through hundreds of applicants Oliver was chosen. They almost didnt take me. I was the 13th and I was the wild card, said Oliver. In the show, she said she, basically came off as a bit of a bitch, and kind of the villain. Regardless of the out- come of the competi- t ion we wont give anything away for those who have been watching the program Oliver said she had a great time on the show. I loved it. It was a lot of fun. You make some good friends. Its a good start for my career, said Oliver, who currently designs for a maternity wear company and works as a plus-size model. She started sewing when she was six years old. As she got older she made her own clothes, but I shied off a bit because it wasnt really cool to sew. But she said she designed and made prom dresses for her friends. The winning designer of Project Catwalk will get to design their own exclusive clothing line for Oli, and receive 25,000 pounds in prize money from Oli to help launch their collection, and a spread in Grazia magazine. Viewers will know Monday night who the winner of Project Catwalk is. The show will air on Slice at 10 p.m. It will re-air at 1 a.m. Tuesday, and 3 p.m. Sunday. (Lisa Tallyn can be reached at ltallyn@independentfreepress.com) Georgetown girl stars in British reality TV show Oliver reaches Catwalks final three A Georgetown veterinarian is urging residents to not rescue newborn fawns that have been spotted on area trails. Nancy Hull, a veterinarian at the Georgetown Animal Clinic on Mountainview Road, says well-meaning peo- ple, thinking they have found an abandoned fawn, have brought the young white-tailed deer into her clinic in the past unnecessarily. These fawns are not abandoned and they should be left alone, says Hull. Hull says people coming across a fawn sometimes mistakenly believe the animal has been abandoned by its mother. To help avoid predation the doe will carefully hide her young in vegetation, says Hull. She will then go away to browse and not return for several hours. The fawn will instinctively stay where its mother has hidden it. Hull says the newborns have no scent and their spot- ted coats help with camouflage. If you find a fawn, enjoy the special moment, take a picture if you can and then quietly move away, rest assured that Mum will be back in a few hours. If you find an animal truly in distress there are a num- ber of organizations that can help, says Hull, among them the Toronto Wildlife Centre (416-631-0662), Rabbit Rescue (905-877-6745), Raccoon Rescue (877- 936, 6573) and Hawkeye Injured Birds of Prey (519-853- 3323). Georgetown veterinarian Nancy Hull snapped this photo of a fawn in northeast Georgetown recently. She says residents often mistakenly believe the animals have been abandoned and should leave them alone. Photo by Nancy Hull CHELSEY OLIVER LISA TALLYN Staff Writer Leave fawns alone, vet urges
