Abbotsford Mission Water and Sewer Commission

Summer 2011

Water Conservation Programs FREE! Irrigation and Landscape Assessments The Abbotsford Mission Water & Sewer Commission (AMWSC) is offering free assessments to residents interested in irrigating efficiently. This is a one-on-one walk-through of your yard and garden that takes about 45 minutes. An AMWSC staff member will help you identify ways that you can save water. Irrigation experts estimate homeowners can reduce outdoor watering needs by 25% just by keeping up with irrigation system maintenance and setting the timer properly. By converting your yard to a waterwise landscape you can save water, time and money.

Water Use & Landscape Survey The AMWSC would like to have a better understanding of how water conservation regulations impact residents and is conducting a confidential residential survey to help evaluate the effectiveness of current support programs as well as assist with the development of future conservation programs and incentives. Survey participants will be entered to win a rain barrel or a $100 gift certificate to a local nursery. To participate in the water conservation survey, please go online to ourwatermatters.ca.

Alvin Unger is the proud owner of the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics Inukshuk. Unger purchased the symbolic statue and moved it to his company, Clearbrook Iron Works on Sumas Way.

The symbol which represented the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics has found a new home, in Abbotsford. Weighing in at over 25,000 pounds, the 17-foot Inukshuk, which used to be located at the athletes village in Whistler, is now resting at Clearbrook Iron Works on Sumas Way. Alvin Unger purchased the statue, for an undisclosed amount, and moved it to his company as both a reminder of the Olympics and a show piece for his business and the community. “We did a lot of work at the Olympics,” he said, including building part of the ski jump, the bridges on the bobsled course and the bridges at Pacific Boulevard. The business connection he made during the Olympics also spun off into more opportunities, including work on the seating at Empire Field in Vancouver. Unger sees the Inukshuk as a symbol of the great legacy of the Vancouver Olympic Games. The term Inukshuk is Inuit for “in the likeness of a human” and is a monument made of unworked stones. One

of its purposes was to serve as direction markers in the Arctic. A crew picked up the statue on Tuesday and on Wednesday, it was built. “It only took a couple of hours to do, using a crane. The base weighs 14,000 pounds. “Whoever built it did a great job. It’s really balanced, sturdy, the wind isn’t going to knock it down.” The Inukshuk is clearly visible from the road. Travellers to and from the Abbotsford-Huntingdon border will drive past it. Originally, Unger planned to place the structure as close to the roadway as possible, but decided to erect it behind the company fence for security reasons. The next step for Unger is to have two spotlights installed to showcase the figure at night, and to add some bark mulch to the ground to help it stand out. Unger said it also needs another power washing. The Inukshuk has been sitting in an empty lot for months, waiting for a buyer to claim it. While it will be a nice reminder of the Games, Unger admits there is one additional reason he decided to purchase it. “I think it looks kind of cool.”

Government goes after home Police raid found grow-op in May Vikki HOPES Abbotsford News

A civil forfeiture claim has been filed against an Abbotsford man who was charged last month with two others for allegedly running a marijuana grow-op out of his home on Harmony Court. Dan Nhat Thu Ho, 42, was scheduled to make his first appearance Thursday in Abbotsford provincial court on charges of production of a controlled substance, possession for the purpose of trafficking, and fraudulently consuming electricity or gas. Also charged with the same offences was Dan Truc Minh Ho, 20, and Van Trieu Nguyen, 47. The civil forfeiture claim filed in B.C. Supreme Court lists the older Ho as the owner of the property at 31625 Harmony and states he purchased it in January 2007.

Police executed a search warrant on the property on May 9, 2011, and found 240 marijuana plants in the “vegetative state of growth,” a hydro bypass, and other paraphernalia used for drug production and trafficking, according to the court documents. The claim suggests that Ho profited from the proceeds of criminal activity. “... the production and trafficking in controlled substances was a major source of income for the defendant,” the documents allege. The B.C. Civil Forfeiture Act was passed in 2006, permitting the provincial government to apply to court to obtain property that was obtained through criminal activity. If a judge decides a property must be forfeited, it can then be sold and the proceeds used by the government for victim compensation, crime prevention activities, crime remediation activities, and administration of the act.

NewsBytes MISSING GIRL FOUND A missing Abbotsford teen has been found safe with her mom in Williams Lake. Abbotsford Police issued a plea earlier this week to help locate 15-year-old Celine Lynn Johnny, who resides in a home operated by a charitable society. She had failed to return from meeting a relative at a local mall, but did not notify anyone of her whereabouts. Sgt. Casey Vinet said police have learned that Johnny spent a few days with her aunt before making her way to Williams Lake. RCMP in that area came across Johnny when checking at her mom’s home.

ope – no parachute,” said Ross Granley, with a grin. “You’re not going to need it.” He made the comment as he was strapping three passengers into his Yak 18T aircraft on Thursday afternoon. Ross recently flew in from Washington to perform at the 49th Abbotsford International Airshow, running today through Sunday at Abbotsford Airport. Ross has performed here numerous times with his father Bud, who is a wellknown name at the annual event. The duo often fly together in formation, travelling across North America with their act. Bud pilots a Yak 55. Continued on A6

An Abbotsford driver suffered minor facial injuries at about 11:30 a.m. Wednesday when his vehicle was hit by a deer. The man was travelling north on the Sumas Way bypass between Old Yale and Old Clayburn roads when a deer bolted across the southbound lanes of traffic and ran into his driver’s side door. The window was open and he was hit in the face by the sideview mirror, which was knocked off by the deer. The animal, which did not appear to be seriously injured, kept on running.

A proposal for a new truck refuelling depot will go to public hearing. Vedder Transport announced earlier this year that it had purchased 50 new trucks which run on Liquid Natural Gas (LNG), a more environmentallyfriendly fuel. As part of the purchase, a LNG depot needs to be constructed on Vedder’s Riverside Road property. If approved, it would become the first LNG depot in the Fraser Valley. The initial stage of the development permits were approved by council and will now move to a public hearing. Initially the refuelling depot will be for Vedder trucks only, but could be expanded to sell to other vehicles in the future.

From A5

During Thursday’s flight, the father and son planes were joined by three other aircraft: a yellow Pitts Special, a black Harvard and a yellow Harvard. As the planes lifted off the tarmac, Ross’s Yak 18T in the lead, communication was key. Ross was on his microphone the entire flight, ensuring the other pilots were safe, that they weren’t straying off too far and weren’t too close to each other. Beyond the turbulence that occurred closer to the ground, it was a smooth flight. The higher the planes ascended, the more the clouds melted away, providing a perfectly blue backdrop. The five aircraft made every transition with ease, switching from a line formation to flying stacked over one another. At one point, the Yak 55 and the Pitts Special lined up on the right wing of the Yak 18T and performed aerial flips in unison before swooping off to practise more stunts. Without any warning, Ross turned the plane onto its canopy, providing a bird’s-eye view ROSS GRANLEY of Abbotsford’s berry fields, farms, residential pools and surrounding terrain. He looped a few times and then turned back to his radio, organizing clearance for all five aircraft. Back on the runway, once the planes were safely lined up in a row on the tarmac, giving way to the numerous jets and warbirds, Bud and Ross said they were happy with the flight, crediting strong communication skills for its success. They feel good about this year’s performance and are ready for the weekend. “It’s not a complete aviation year unless we’ve been to the Abbotsford Airshow,� said Bud. This year’s show will feature numerous airborne acts in the air and static displays on the ground. Airplane enthusiasts and families will be able to see military aircraft, warbirds and civilian planes. Static displays will include heavy lifters, fighters and attack jets, trainers and light transport and helicopters. Gates are open from 8 a.m.-6 p.m. For more information, and for a full schedule, check out www.abbotsfordairshow.com

medical health officer at Fraser Health, said there are no plans to test for health impacts linked to the existing Metro incinerator in south Burnaby, which burns 280,000 tonnes of garbage a year.

Public health officers will take a hard look at any health risks posed if Metro Vancouver builds a new garbage incinerator. B.C. chief medical health officer Dr. Perry Kendall supports the planned public health impact assessment even though he personally doubts a modern waste-to-energy plant would pose a significant threat to the public. “Concerns have been expressed,” he said, adding it’s “useful, necessary and good practice” to study the issue. The work would be directed and reviewed by Fraser Health chief medical health officer Dr. Paul van Buynder and Vancouver Coastal chief medical health officer Dr. Patricia Daly. They’d examine the possible health impacts of any new waste-toenergy plant once a detailed proposal is made for a specific site, based on the technology and pollution control specifications to be used. Actual research would be done by consultants hired by Metro. The Fraser Valley Regional District opposes an in-region waste-to-energy plant – which Metro Vancouver can pursue now that the province has approved its solid waste management plan. Critics fear air pollution from an incinerator would worsen smog in the Valley and that burning garbage will increase public exposure to toxins like dioxins, metals and nanoparticles. Kendall says waste incineration was “problematic” in the past but risks are now likely minimal if done to modern standards. Metro previously projected the net impact on air quality of a new mass-burn incinerator would be insignificant, largely because it would also heat and power nearby buildings, avoiding other

health division, which is conducting a broad review of the risks from waste incineration, will assist the health authorities in determining how to examine specific proposals for new plants. The potential impacts depend greatly on where a waste-toenergy plant is built and how it’s designed, according to Dr. Tom Kosatsky, the division’s medical health director. He suggested airborne toxics released by a new plant – and the proximity of those emissions to local residents – may merit the closest scrutiny. Even so, he said, toxics are unlikely to be a significant threat large distances downwind and modern pollution scrubbing should deliver lower emissions. “The best available evidence for the massburn incinerators is that emissions are going to be relatively low compared to other emissions of the same things from other sources,” Kosatsky said. The research is expected to look at not just direct air pollution impacts, but potential indirect exposure through possible contamination of gardens, food crops, livestock and ground water. Kosatsky said the research should look at

QUESTION OF THE WEEK

Truck parking

Are you concerned about potential health risks associated with trash incineration?

Looking back a few years, there were 3,700 insured commercial vehicles in Abbotsford. Do we know how many of these needed residential parking? I’d like to see these owners/operators pay for what they need instead of us taxpayers who do not need the privilege, i.e. enforcement, pollution noise and exhaust. Oh, I can hear dissidents retort with something like, “Everything we use moves by truck.” rhiebert

To answer, go to abbynews.com

LAST WEEK, WE ASKED:

1) There are places suitable for parked trucks so we just have to find them or create them. What do you think the task force has been trying to come up with for the past two years, and years before the task force was even created? 2) “I’d like to see these owners/operators pay for what they need instead of us taxpayers.” If this happens, you will pay, our costs go up, which means so do yours at the stores, resturants and everywhere else! Think about it! Taskforce_two

Did you find the HST referendum question or voting process confusing?

Trouble goes better with good company Andrew

Holota

On Point There’s an old axiom that exists among avid outdoorsmen. If you’re going to get yourself in trouble in the woods, take someone along who can help get you out. I was reminded of this by Mark Rushton’s column earlier this week, as he related his excursion into the bush with his city-centric son-in-law. Happily, they didn’t have any major dramas. Which is a very good thing, since trouble in the outback is automatically much more dramatic than the same situation in civilization. Like a dead battery, for instance. Most anywhere, it’s a simple matter of getting a jump from another vehicle. However, if you’ve only got one truck, you have a big issue. I experienced this many years ago, on a fishing trip to a friend’s cabin. The little A-frame on a northern river was a good three-hour drive from his main cabin,

over some of the nastiest, muddiest, rockiest “off-road” in B.C. We were just minutes away from our destination when the truck died. (Remarkably, not in a mud hole, or in the middle of one of the creeks we had crossed.) The main battery had not been charging properly. It was drained. And the backup was down as well, which in theory, is not supposed to happen. Murphy’s Law dictated otherwise. However, my partner had a trick up his sleeve. Over the course of a mostly sleepless night, we “cooked” the backup battery in hot water on the wood stove. Heat increases the charge. In the morning, we hooked it up, and after a couple of gut-chilling, sluggish turns of the motor, it fired. Out we went, joking about making battery juice for breakfast, and hoping we wouldn’t have to repeat the process, since it probably wouldn’t work a second time. And then there was the time we managed to poke a hole in my 4x4’s fuel tank during one of the bone-jarring bounces on that same brutish road. Many, many miles into the wilderness, and there we stood, watching gasoline

drip into the dirt at a rapid rate. Abort the trip and try to make it out before the tank ran dry, or come up with a solution? The latter. We unbolted the skid plate, fashioned a gasket out of a piece of inner tube, enlarged the puncture with a centre

Trouble in the outback is automatically more dramatic than the same situation in civilization. punch (wincing at the thought of the ensuing fireball), and turned a wood screw with the rubber washer into the hole. Over that went a big wad of gas tank repair goo, and we were good to go. When I sold the truck 10 years later, that screw was still in the tank. It had never leaked another drop. On a somewhat smaller scale, I lost a buddy’s truck keys once. They dropped out of a hole in my hunting pants while

I was thrashing about in dense brush, looking for a grouse that was averse to becoming dinner. We were way back at some remote lake in the Cariboo, which by our design to find peace and solitude, featured no other people. You ought to have seen my partner’s face when he asked for his keys. I dug about in my pocket, and came up with nothing more than a sheepish grin. Luckily, I was still holding my shotgun, and his firearms were in the truck. Still, once we got past the initial theatrics, I was facing a long, long walk. However, my partner remembered that ages ago he had hidden a spare key under the battery. We checked, and sure enough, there it was, but badly corroded. We had visions of it breaking off in the ignition, further compounding our problems. He could have been doing brain surgery, the way he gingerly manipulated that key. It worked. All was forgiven, and we had another tale to tell. Well, not exactly. He doesn’t let me wander off with his truck keys anymore.

letters Responsibility to protect

Once again, the health of the population of the Fraser Valley is at risk from the threat of another incinerator, with the potential to burn a million tons of refuse a year produced from the Greater Vancouver Metropolitan area. This raises a moral issue – are the people of the Greater Vancouver Metropolitan area prepared to foist their volatilized garbage into the air, to the disadvantage of the people of the Fraser Valley? When garbage is transformed at high temperatures, it is converted to ash and highly complex gases containing heavy metals and rarer metals, all of which are found in coloured paper, plus dioxins, carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide. It is also acknowledged there will be micro particles, which can penetrate deeply into sinus and living tissue. The dilution with large

quantities of air makes the emission from incinerators practically invisible, yet the large chimney stacks on incinerators expose the volume of their poisonous emissions. We must always remember that just because it is invisible, that it is still a changed form of a very toxic material to all living creatures, including plant life. The second biological threat is the absorption from the atmosphere of the toxins into the food chain of agricultural products as contaminated water carries the material onto growing plants and into the soil. The economic consequences of enhanced aerial pollution are: T Increased visits to emergency departments by patients with asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

T A movement of population away from areas of pollution and economic loss to homeowners due to a fall in property values by people leaving the Upper Fraser Valley for healthier zones, especially those with compromised lung function who will be advised to leave. The resolution of this threat is dependent on political decisions. Hence, what is the health of 1.5 million people in the Fraser Valley worth? Public opinion should be focused on the politicians who have the responsibility to protect. If they do not do so, they are not fit to govern. Derrick Rogers

Abbotsford parish among churches ordered to pay The Diocese of New Westminster has received a $155,000 cheque from four churches, including St. Matthew’s parish in Abbotsford, to cover legal costs as ordered by the courts. The funds were issued from the legal representatives of the 22 individuals who took the diocese to court for control of the church properties

and other assets. The legal battle proceeded through BC Supreme Court, the BC Court of Appeal and the Supreme Court of Canada. The courts ruled in favour of the diocese in the battle which stemmed from the issue of same-sex blessings. The diocese is a member of the Anglican Church of Canada (ACC), which allows the blessings.

The four churches, including three in Vancouver, split from ACC to join the Anglican Network in Canada (ANiC), which believes the blessings are contrary to core Anglican doctrine. After the courts ruled that the properties belong to the diocese, ANiC members of St. Matthew’s moved to Grace Evangelical Bible Church.

Ernie Poignant has presented his last historical display. The 92-year-old local history buff has been sharing his knowledge and experience with the community for decades. However, he has decided that his recent Agrifair presentation will likely be his last. Poignant is a member of one of Abbotsford’s pioneer families. Both Poignant Creek and Poignant Mountain are named in their honour.

Fun run supports counselling services Goal set at $80,000 Cares Counselling and Restoration Services in Abbotsford has set a goal of $80,000 for its fourth annual walk/run on Saturday, Sept. 17. Cares executive director Don Huston said the bulk of the funds will come from what is being called the Dollar for Dollar Challenge. This involves a group of business people matching every dollar raised – so far, up to $27,000 – until 4 p.m. on Sept. 26. More people are welcome to get involved in the challenge and bring the dollar amount matched up to $40,000. The 5 km Dare to Care Fun Run/Walk and the 10K Challenge begins at 9 a.m. at Rotary Stadium, 32470 Haida Drive. Registration can be done in person at Cares (#103 – 2790 Gladwin Rd.) or at the Running Room (#103 – 2070 Sumas Way). It can also be done online at cares.ca or runningroom.com. Donations will also be accepted from people not participating in the run. Cares is a not-for-profit service that provides counselling at a reduced cost to clients. The difference in client fees and actual costs are made up by donations from individuals and businesses and from the annual fun run. Volunteers are still needed for the run. For more information, call 604-853-8916.

findings undercut Clark’s claim. “How can British Columbians trust the process that is intended to ensure that our fish, water, wildlife and human health are adequately protected?� he asked. NDP environment critic Rob Fleming called it a damning report that shows government cuts to monitoring and enforcement have left proponents selfreporting on their own work. “Standards are utterly meaningless without monitoring and enforcement,� he said. The report also noted the EAO doesn’t formally track certified project conditions and commitments for compliance and lacks mechanisms for enforcement. Projects in the Lower Mainland that are certified through a B.C. environmental assessment and now under construction include the new Port Mann Bridge and Highway 1 widening and the South Fraser Perimeter Road.

DOWNES ROAD CONSTRUCTION UPDATE BC Hydro continues to construct a new, underground duct bank along Downes Road. This work is resulting in temporary traffic delays, so motorists are encouraged to detour north to Townshipline Road to avoid the construction zone. Crews are on site from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., Monday to Saturday.

Perennials for late summer colour

By adding some very special late summer blooming perennials, you can make an enormous difference to the whole look and feel of your garden. When many other garden plants have finished blooming, these perennials will look good even while tolerating the intense heat and drought of late summer, as well as the cool evenings and occasional heavy rains of early fall. At the very top Brian of my list of favourites are the rudb e c k i a s. Perhaps one of the finest of all the rudbeckias is the truly hardy variety R. ‘Goldsturm.’ Growing about two feet high with deep golden petals surrounding a dark brown button, ‘Goldsturm’ just keeps pouring out the colour well into October. ‘Early Bird Gold’ is a newer version of ‘Goldsturm’ that blooms two weeks earlier and still keeps going until late fall. Both these varieties will give you many weeks of great colour. Echinacea has been more recently sold as a herb because of its healing properties, but it also has exquisite flowers. ‘Echinacea purpurea’ is sold as the herbal variety, but pink E. ‘Magnum’ and the white flowering ‘White Swan’ are classy looking plants that add an unique quality to summer gardens. They last well, even tolerating some frost, and the spent blossoms make interesting dried flowers.

In shady spots or in full sun, perhaps the most elegant of all the late summer perennials are the Japanese anemones. Dwarf or tall, white, pink or dusty rose, these plants are a definite hit, blooming as early as August. The yellow-centered anemone blossoms always have a fresh look about them, and they combine well with so many other perennials or shrubs.

Minter

Gardening The white varieties especially brighten up shady areas. For some early fall tones, add a bit of fire to your flower beds with crocosmias. For years they were called montbretia and sold as tiny bulbs, but today they are usually sold in ‘bud and bloom’ as perennials. Crocosmias need a somewhat sheltered spot and very well drained soil, but wow, do they ever add spice to our gardens with their fire-orange freesia-type blossoms!

Lush-looking fall sedums are especially important at this time of year. The succulent foliage of ‘Autumn Joy’ and ‘Brilliant’ looks great all summer and never stresses out in drought situations. As the rosy pink blossoms open, they provide new colour for weeks. They combine well with low-growing conifers or small flowering shrubs like potentillas. As the pink flowers turn bronze, they should be left on the plant for a dried ‘fall look.’ Coreopsis have exploded recently with new colours, sizes and forms, but the old reliable C. ‘Zagreb’, C. ‘Moonlight’ and C. grandiflora are the workhorses and bloom consistently till frost. These are some of my ‘tried and true’ favourites that add fresh new life to late summer gardens. Combine them with colourful conifers, broadleaved plants and evergreen perennials, like heucheras and euphorbias for some spectacular displays.

How to choose the Right Electrician if you have any of these 6 problems and you want them fixed today! Unlike the plumbers I know, electricians rarely get emergency calls. Our equivalent of a flood in the basement is a fire in the attic . . . and you don’t call us for that. You call 911. So you’re probably not reading this because you’ve got an electrical emergency. Instead, you have an electrical problem like one of these . . .

1. “My good friend (or husband) tried to do it.” My apologies to the guys reading this, but it’s true. A big part of our business is finishing up the electrical projects you start . . . from outlets to ceiling fans. And that’s okay, although it would be easier and probably cheaper if you’d call us first. We have the tools, experience and know-how to do the job right, start to finish. Call us for proven professional electrical expertise.

4. “I’ve got an ugly internet or cable TV wiring stapled to my baseboards.” Let us do the job right. Snaking wire through walls is an art, a science, a skill . . . and our specialty. It’s also something few electricians, cable companies or internet providers like to do. But you’re in luck when you call us. We’re World Champions at snaking wire without knocking holes in your walls.

2. “I need a ceiling fan or chandelier installed.” We install lighting fixtures, fans, outlets, dimmers and more. Our work is guaranteed to meet city codes, and we use only copper wiring (no aluminum). Want to know why we use only copper wiring? Call us.

5. “Smells like something’s burning” Overheated appliances and electrical circuits are a problem you don’t want to ignore. A call to us now could save you a call to 911 later.

3. “I have a breaker that doesn’t stay reset.” If your breaker keeps tripping, you don’t have the equivalent of a flooded basement, yet. But, you do have a potentially dangerous problem involving the electrical circuits in your home. Don’t ignore it. Call us!

6. “We’ve got a ‘mystery switch’.” We love getting this call. If you’ve got a switch that you’ve never been able to link to an outlet or circuit, call us to solve the mystery.

Feta may be the most common cheese made from goat’s milk, but for one Abbotsford dairy, it’s the best. Abbotsford’s Goat’s Pride Dairy received two awards at the recent American Cheese Society Cheese Competition in Montreal. Its plain feta and cranberry caprabella both earned third place ribbons at the event, which saw over 1,600 entries in 108 categories. “It’s really cool,” said Jason Dykstra, 30, the cheese maker. “Everyone who makes goat’s cheese makes feta. So it’s amazing to see that we won in that category.” Dykstra altered the recipe of the feta,

making it less salty. He’s already looking forward to re-working many of the other cheeses they produce. ”I have a whole bunch of new recipe ideas in my head,” he said. The local company has been making certified organic items for the past six years under its current name, with similar product being created by the previous owners. Winning two ribbons at the contest has inspired them to continue expanding. “It’s encouraging to win something like this because we’ve been wanting to expand – and to know we have a good product helps,” said JoAnn Dykstra, who runs the farm with her husband Peter and the help of their kids.

Explosive chemistry High school teammates Best, Douglas make national U18 sevens side Dan KINVIG Abbotsford News

DAN KINVIG

Abbotsford News

Jorden Best (left) and Justin Douglas have cracked the 12-man roster for Canada’s under-18 sevens rugby squad. They travel to the Isle of Man in September for the Youth Commonwealth Games.

Sports history is chock-full of teammates whose incredible chemistry elevated them to a higher level – think Montana and Rice, Gretzky and Kurri, Stockton and Malone. On the Canadian youth rugby scene, Justin Douglas and Jorden Best are the closest equivalent. The two Abbotsford teens have been playing the sport together for years – with their school team at Robert Bateman Secondary, on age-class squads with the Abbotsford Rugby Football Club, and on regional, provincial and national rep sides. The bond they’ve formed over the years works in two ways. To begin with, Douglas, 17, and Best, 16, have an uncanny feel for where the other is going to be on the pitch. And as tends to happen with buddies, the friendly rivalry between them also serves to push them to make the most of their talent. “In a way, it’s kind of a competition,” Best analyzed. “We really feed off each other, and we’re really trying to get better.”

Douglas and Best are set to renew their partnership with the Canadian under-18 rugby sevens side. The two cracked the national team’s 12-man roster following a national tryout in Victoria a couple weeks back, and they’re heading overseas for the Youth Commonwealth Games, Sept. 7-13 on the Isle of Man. Both Douglas and Best have represented Canada in 15’s rugby at the under-17 level, but they both prefer the breakneck pace of the sevens game. “It’s a more fast-paced game, and it’s really open,” Douglas explained. “There’s more room for creativity.” Rugby sevens will make its debut as an Olympic sport at the 2016 Games in Rio de Janeiro, and even though they’re still in high school, the Abbotsford duo find themselves well-positioned for future Olympic participation. “They’re lucky to be coming in at the right time, where sevens has progressed to the forefront with the Olympics,” said Shane Thompson, head coach of the national U18 sevens team. “Fastforward five years from now when the Olympics is, they’ll be 21 or 22 years old, and they’ll definitely be on the cusp of making that team. “Lots can change between then Continued on A27

Beckett vaults to York Dan KINVIG Abbotsford News

A big part of Emma Beckett’s love of pole vaulting derives from the fact there’s always something new to learn about the event’s nuanced technique. Given her enthusiasm for self-improvement, Beckett could hardly have found a better post-secondary fit than York University. When she arrives on the Toronto campus this fall, Beckett will have the opportunity to work with York Lions track and field assistant coach Arye Rosenoer, a pole vault specialist who trains some of Canada’s elite in the event. “It’ll be really great to work with someone like him,”

Emma Beckett clears the bar during a recent competition at Rotary Stadium. The Valley Royals pole vaulter is ticketed for York University this fall. submitted photo

enthused Beckett, a 17-yearold who recently graduated from the Abbotsford School of Integrated Arts. “He works with a lot of world class athletes, not just at the university.” As much as she’s fired up about joining BECKETT the track team and competing at the Canadian Interuniversity Sport (CIS) level, Beckett chose York as much for academic reasons as athletic. The aspiring screenwriter has been accepted into York’s exclusive theatre program.

“I auditioned with screenwriting,” said Beckett, who earned an academic scholarship to York. “My first year, I’ll be doing everything – stagecraft, acting, costume design, learning about the history of theatre. It’s kind of an opportunity to figure out what you like with theatre, and what you want to focus on.” Beckett, who trains with Abbotsford’s Valley Royals track and field club, figures to make an immediate impact on behalf of the Lions track team. Her person best jump of 3.25 metres would have been good enough to place her among the top eight at last season’s Ontario University Athletics championships. Continued on A27

Beckett a two-time B.C. champ From A26

Beckett is a two-time gold medallist at both the Fraser Valley high school championships and the B.C. Athletics championships, and she was Canada’s sixthranked youth pole vaulter last year. “You’re always learning new stuff about it,� Beckett said of her chosen sport. “There’s

a lot of really detailed technique to it. You have to get all the way upside down in the air to really get the best jump, and I haven’t really gotten there yet. But I think in the next year, I’ll be able to nail down some technique that will help me get a lot better.� If she could write the script for her own pole vaulting career, Beckett

thinks the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro would make a terrific climactic scene. “Going to university, I just want to expand my horizons as much as possible,� she said. “If I had a dream goal, it would be the 2016 Olympics. Right now, I just want to see how far I can take it and see what my options are, more than anything.�

Best, Douglas taking on the world From A25

The other half of the draw features England, South Africa, Trinidad and Tobago, and Sri Lanka. “We want to go out and have a good showing for Canada,� Best said. “We want to show the world we’re going to be good in 2016.�

and now . . . but all these kids going on this (U18) team would be in the running for 2016 and 2020.� At the Youth Commonwealth Games, Canada is in a pool with Australia, Scotland and the host Isle of Man.
