Two employees of Nature’s Fare Market were taken to hospital with serious injuries after a silver SUV came through the front windows of the health food store’s bistro and right into the lunch counter on Monday afternoon. One woman sitting at a bistro table was treated on scene by paramedics and staff and patrons were shaken up by the crash. The two people who were hurt were taken to Royal Columbian Hospital with serious but non-life threatening injuries, said Langley RCMP. It was around 1:30 p.m. when a senior, who said his name is Helmet, drove his VW Touareg up over the curb

“I couldn’t believe it,” said a very shaken up Helmet after the crash. “I didn’t go very fast.” His friend Terry said he realized he was driving up over the curb but was in shock as it was happening. “It was an accident,” she said. Langley RCMP say a mechanical inspection has been ordered but police believe Hannie, who is in his 80s, mistook the gas for the brake pedal. Hannie said he has had a perfect driving record for 30 years. At least two ambulances and several fire trucks were on scene and the store, located in the 19800 block of Langley Bypass was closed. It’s unknown when the bistro will reopen. It suffered a significant amount of damage.
A 27-year-old man hiding out in Langley because he was wanted for multiple counts of sexual assault in Ontario has been arrested and sent back to face prosecution. On May 3, Jean Pierre Martin was arrested by the Langley RCMP without incident for outstanding warrants for his arrest out of Elliot Lake, Ont. Police believe he fled to B.C. to avoid arrest. The warrants were for offences which included three counts of sexual assault, assault, forcible confinement, criminal harassment, uttering threats to cause death, beak and enter unlawfully in a dwelling, theft, intimidation and obstructing justice. These charges all stem from incidents which occurred in 2010 and 2011, said Langley RCMP Cpl. Holly Marks. His first contact with police in B.C. was in January and Langley RCMP identified him as a candidate for the BC Fugitive Return Program in March, said Marks. The Ontario Provincial Police transported Martin back to Ontario to face prosecution. Martin’s return to Ontario was funded and facilitated by the OPP in co-operation with the BC Fugitive Return Program and the Langley RCMP. The BC Fugitive Return Program is a program managed by the RCMP and a joint management team with Vancouver Police. This program is funded by the Civil Forfeiture Office within the B.C. government. Since September 2011, the Fugitive Return Program has facilitated the return of 39 individuals from various regions in B.C. wanted by other provinces across Canada.

Mayor Peter Fassbender was paid $76,250 plus $6,924 in expenses and another $4,695 in benefits for a total of $87,869.
Taking into account remuneration, expenses and benefits, Councillor Rosemary Wallace was the top earner among the City’s six council members with $38,106 in total compensation. The figures for the remainder of council, in descending order, are: Councillor Ted Schaffer: $38,036; Councillor Gayle Martin: $37,531; Councillor Jack Arnold: $36,975; Councillor Teri James: 36,393; and Councillor Dave Hall: $35,145.

Motorcyclist taken to hospital after crash Brenda anderson Times Reporter
Dan FERGUSON/Langley Times
One of two suspects arrested after a man was threatened in Langley City on Wednesday leans down to comfort his dog. Police swarmed to the area after a report that a trio had shown the man a gun.
Two arrested after man threatened
Two men, 20 and 18, were arrested after a man was threatened with a gun for not giving them cigarettes on Wednesday. Shortly after noon, Langley RCMP were called to the 20400 block of 53 Avenue to investigate a gun sighting. The witness said he had been approached by three men who asked him for cigarettes, said Langley RCMP Cpl. Holly Marks. When he said he
would not give them any, one of the three displayed the butt end of a firearm and threatened him. The group argued for a short time and the three suspects fled on foot, said Marks. A short time later, a Langley officer located two of the men matching the description provided. She arrested the two, a 20-year-old Langley man and an 18-year-old Surrey man and completed a search of them. No gun was found.
A perimeter was established in the area and unsuccessful attempts by the Lower Mainland Police Dog Services were made to locate the third suspect. The officers did however locate a long barreled paint ball gun in a grassy area. It is believed to be the weapon shown. The gun has been seized, and the suspects released for now. The investigation continues, said Marks.
One person was airlifted to hospital on Thursday afternoon, following a collision between a motorcycle and a Honda Accord. The motorcycle driver sustained non-lifethreatening injuries to his lower body in the crash, while the two people inside the vehicle were not hurt. The collision took place just before 4:30 p.m. on May 9, in the 20900 block of 80 Avenue. Langley RCMP Traffic Services closed 80 Avenue between 208 and 212 Streets while they investigated. ICARS (Integrated Collision Analyst Reconstruction Service) was called to assist Langley’s traffic section with the investigation. Police say it does not appear that impaired driving was a factor in the collision. They would like to speak with witnesses to help determine the cause of the crash. Anyone with information, who has not yet spoken to police, is asked to call Langley RCMP at 604-532-3200. No further details on the condition of the injured motorcyclist were available on Monday.

Rod and Gun club erects ‘good neighbour fence’ Langley shooting club concerned about encroachment by residential development, students Dan Ferguson Times Reporter
After two decades of relying on warning signs, the Langley Rod and Gun Club (LRGC) has installed a chain link fence to keep trespassers from entering the 37.5 acre property it uses for indoor and outdoor shooting ranges near 40
Avenue and 208 Street. “We just want to be good neighbours,” said club president Gord Van Dokkumburg. He estimated the cost of the fence at more than $50,000. He said the club was concerned about possible encroachment by new residential development in

the area and Brookswood Secondary School next door. “We have had high school students bring their lunch in the bushes [even though signs say “keep out, active shooting range”]” Van Dokkumburg told The Times. He said there have been no incidents involving unwanted visitors near the shooting ranges, and the club intends to keep it that way. “We haven’t had any trouble,” Van Dokkumburg said. “We don’t want any issues.” Relocating the club is not a practical option, he said. “There’s nowhere to go in Langley.” The LRGC has been operating at its current location for about 20 years, Van Dokkumburg said. The club was established in 1946. The LRGC website describes the club as a nonprofit society incorporated under the Societies Act of British Columbia “to provide a safe and friendly facility where individuals can enjoy many shooting disciplines.” Among the sports listed are skeet shooting, rifles, air pistols, handguns, fast draw, and modern pentathlon events.

Two toddlers taken by air ambulance

just before 9 p.m. Scan BC reported that the ambulance flew to Langley to meet a ground ambulance, whose crew was transporting a two-yearold child with serious medical issues. On Saturday evening, a toddler was flown to B.C. Children’s Hospital after falling from a second-storey window of an Aldergrove home.
The two-year-old boy is going to be fine, B.C. Ambulance Service told the media. Around 5:30 p.m., emergency crews responded to a home on Springfield Drive in Aldergrove near Fraser Highway. The playing field at the back of Shortreed Elementary School on 28 Avenue was blocked off to make a landing
zone for a a medivac helicopter. The fall is a good reminder to all parents to secure windows and make sure to move anything they can climb on like furniture or planters. Last year, a twoyear-old girl died after falling off a balcony in Surrey and in Mission a girl fell through a screen.

Thieves stealing catalytic converters in Langley are costing vehicle owners and dealerships hundreds of thousands of dollars. Langley RCMP confirm that there has been a rash of thefts on the Surrey/Langley border, with one vehicle dealership being hit especially hard by the thefts. “They are big but easy to remove,” said Langley RCMP Cpl. Holly Marks. Nearly 100 have been stolen since January and it doesn’t appear there is an end in sight. Most have been taken from dealerships but many from people’s parked vehicles in their driveways. The catalytic convert reduces engine emissions and contains platinum which makes it worth something at a metal scrap recycling depot. But bylaws have been tightened and it is getting harder for thieves to bring these items in.
agenda as delegations to speak are the speedway society’s Murray Jones, Campbell Valley Park Association chair Jude Grass and Kathy Kolb, a Richmond resident who opposes the proposal. According to a letter from Grass, the park association is “absolutely opposed” to reopening the speedway, arguing the geography of the park magnifies the sound of racing cars both within the park and to the surrounding neighbourhood.

reps have proposed sharing speedway revenues with Metro and allowing the facility for other uses, such as concerts and other outdoor events. The Greater Vancouver Regional District bought the park property in 1969 and the speedway closed in 1985, after a series of lease extensions following a three-year termination notice in 1979. Metro says the park now attracts nearly 700,000 visitors a year. On Thursday’s

According to a staff report, the park contains sensitive ecosystems near the former speedway grounds. “Previous studies of this forested area indicate that species at risk such as redlegged frog, western toad, Pacific water shrew, great blue heron and American bittern are likely to inhabit the immediate area around the track,” it says.

The $100,000 club
It’s a parttime job
I
f there were just three more Langley City employees making $100,000 or more per year, there would be a perfect ratio — one City $100,000-plus earner for every 1,000 people. It seems almost unbelievable that 22 employees of the City collected $100,000 or more in 2012, in a community as small as Langley City. It speaks volumes to the rising cost of municipal government; the reason why property taxes are so high; and the indifference of municipal politicians to their labour costs. The chief administrator, Francis Cheung, made $203,000 last year. While he bears ultimate responsibility for the City’s actions, and is an excellent administrator, does the job merit that kind of pay? Would similar private-sector levels of responsibility merit such a wage? But perhaps even more problematic are the wages paid to mid-level managers and, in some cases, line employees. There are 41 employees of the City who made $75,000 or more in 2012. This figure includes expenses. What work in the City is so important that it requires so many employees to collect wages on that scale, which is considerably higher than wages paid to many people in the private sector? The director of development services, Gerald Minchuk, who has important responsibilities but actually supervises a very small number of staff, received $145,801 in 2012. Kim Hilton, manager of recreation and culture, who has many more staff members to oversee, was paid $118,479. The real issue is that civic governments have not been able to say no to their unions, who have received steady pay increases for many years in a row. Managers’ salary increases are tied to those given to unionized employees, so everyone’s wages keep rising. The unfortunate part of this practice is that taxpayers’ wages don’t necessarily rise on the same scale. Many have had minimal wage increases since 2008, and many of those on fixed incomes have seen a decline in their incomes, as investment income has declined for many, due to low interest rates. City council has shown no more ability to get wage increases under control than other civic governments in B.C. Taxes keep rising, civic wages keep rising and taxpayers have their pockets picked a little more each year.

f winning a seat in Parliament is akin to winning the jackpot, and if serving at least two terms is like winning the lottery, what can be made of those who seek office at the civic level? Unlike their counterparts at senior levels of government, being a politician at the municipal level will not set up lifelong financial security along with the post-political perks of appointments to various private boards or gifts of posts across the ocean. It is accepted as fact that those who run for office at the local level do so because they have a burning desire to protect in their city what they consider worth protecting and because they feel they can help make the city even better than it already is. If that is the reason ordinary citizens become city councillors, it is indeed a laudable explanation. For this service, city councillors in smaller centres have historically received a token amount of pay. It has always been a part-time job with part-time pay, particularly in smaller cities and towns like Kamloops. So, when the issue of councillor pay becomes the topic of conversation, as it did last week with Councillor Nancy Bepple’s desire to review their compensation, it can create quite the controversy. Kamloops decided last decade to stop engaging in periodic reviews that resulted in eyebrow-raising raises every so often. Instead, councillor pay is adjusted with cost-of-living increases. It was and is a fair way of addressing salaries. Today, the eight city councillors in Kamloops make $25,000 each — one-third of which is tax-free and all of which is on top of whatever it is they earn in their private lives. That $25,000 councillors earn for part-time work is not an insignificant sum. According to Statistics Canada, the average salary in the nation as of December was $47,200. —Kamloops This Week The Langley Times is a member of the British Columbia Press Council, a self-regulatory body governing the province’s newspaper industry.

private power fills a need
Rivers aren’t being privatized Editor: Contrary to Roland Seguin’s hyperbole (letters, The Times, May 9), B.C. rivers have not been privatized. Private sector power producers apply for water licenses like all other water users in B.C. (ranchers, farmers, forestry companies, municipalities, home owners etc.) and appropriately pay for these leases, as well as land leases for adjacent lands. B.C. ratepayers enjoy some of the cheapest electricity in North America and will continue to do so, but rates have been artificially suppressed (subsidized) by successive governments — Socreds, NDP and Liberal alike. At times this has been used to attract industry. Think about all the surplus power that B.C. had when the major dams came online in the 1960s to early 1980s.
The problem now for BC Hydro and the government is that old dams and facilities need to be replaced or upgraded at today’s costs. These include the John Hart dam, Ruskin dam and other facilities. This is the major driver of debt for BC Hydro — billions need to be spent, but for very few new electrons. BC Hydro has entered into power purchase agreements with private producers since the late 1980s. Today, approximately 20 per cent of the power on the grid comes from non-BC Hydro sources (but through BC Hydro’s system), i.e. private power generators, and industrial producers like forest, pulp and paper and mining companies. Power is not paid for until it is delivered. In 2012, the price paid was just
under $68 per KW/h. In the case of independent power producers, the power was procured by BC Hydro via competitive market calls. It is power that is guaranteed for the life of the contract, which is typically for 20 to 40 years. BC Hydro cannot build it cheaper, indeed rarely can government build any public works more cheaply. There is much exaggeration, misunderstanding, politics and mischief involved with the subject of power generation. What is needed is a commitment by governments, the educational system and the private sector to increase the level of knowledge and understanding by its citizenry about our power system in B.C. Paul Kariya, Langley
Northern Gateway offers no advantages to B.C. Editor: I have looked into the economics of the proposed Northern Gateway pipeline, and I cannot find any real longterm advantage to B.C. Canada has an energy strategy, and it is designed not just to serve Canadians, but also other countries. We also have oil companies in Canada that are all or partially owned by the Chinese Communist government. These companies are directly or indirectly involved with the Northern Gateway project. Both Sinopec and Petro China own fleets of oil tankers and own almost all the oil refineries in China. That’s where they plan to upgrade and refine the crude oil they produce in Canada into gasoline, diesel, jet fuel and other petroleum products. It’s the upgrading and refining that
creates jobs. Northern Gateway could move about 850,000 barrels of crude oil per day and that would mean 475 oil tankers a year coming to B.C. Enbridge says that the pipeline will create a total of 104 permanent jobs. For the bitumen (unrefined oil) that will be shipped via Northern Gateway, it is estimated that 4,800 permanent refining jobs will not be created in Canada. Back in 2008, when he was running for re-election, Prime Minister Stephen Harper promised that bitumen would not be shipped to Asia. His government continued to publicly extol the virtues of processing oil in Canada, right until Enbridge filed its Northern Gateway application in May, 2010. Once Northern Gateway is built, when Enbridge decides to increase its tanker
traffic and expose the land and sea to exponential spill risk, no one will be held accountable. I also understand that bitumen, when mixed with water, is the toughest type of oil to clean up, since it floats to the bottom. There are far more jobs and profit to come from refining oil, than simply selling crude oil. I have also been told that one reason we pay more for gasoline in B.C. is because we ship oil to the U.S., and then buy refined products from their refineries. It does seem to me that we are being sold something that is bad for our economy, our environment and our health. I cannot see any benefit for B.C. at all. Bill Taylor, Langley
Comments about Langley were disappointing Editor: I read The Times article (May 9), regarding Todd Hauptman’s resignation from Mary Polak’s campaign. I must say, I was immediately disappointed and hurt by the comments of Hauptman, specifically “the very base of voters who will likely help Mary get re-elected in just one week’s time are made up of individuals who hold hateful attitudes towards the community I am part of.” I have had the pleasure to meet Hauptman on several occasions over the course of the years and found him to The
be a bright, insightful young person. I always made time for him. This is why I am so disappointed with his comment. I doubt very much that Hauptman has taken the time to know the entire group of constituents who vote Liberal in Langley and their thoughts on the gay community. In my opinion, his comments are full of assumptions and he is doing to the Langley Liberal constituents the very thing he is accusing them of doing to his community.
I can only hope that Hauptman crafted his letter in haste and truly does not feel the way his comments make it seem. If he expects to have an ongoing career in the areas he has chosen, he will require community support and therefore he should learn to choose his words more wisely — especially when singling out a specific group or community. At least that’s the way I see it. D. Carr, Langley
Risks of shipping Editor: In the fall of 2006, my buddy and I were salmon fishing off the mouth of the Capilano River. We noticed a huge loaded freighter exiting Burrard Inlet, and entering the First Narrows towards the Lions Gate Bridge. To our astonishment, the freighter suddenly veered off course and headed for the shoreline off Stanley Park. It dropped both of its huge anchors to slow it down, but it still beached itself on the rocks. Apparently, the steering mechanism malfunctioned. Had this freighter sailed a few hundred yards further, and with a higher tide, it could have crashed into the first pier of the Lions Gate Bridge. The result would have been disastrous, and the cargo of this freighter was not oil. A note to Enbridge: Save your advertising dollars. No one on this coast is buying it. W. Vavra, Langley
Mothers important Editor: On Saturday night, I had my daughters over for dinner, and there was a moment after I made a comment when I received a disapproving look — one I had not seen in many years. My eldest produced a stare with pressed lips that resembled the look I would have received from my mother under a similar circumstance. Wow! Was this a coincidence, the night before Mother’s Day? My Mom was politically incorrect, but it worked for her and her family, like so many others back in the day. They called it as they saw it. I think of her more now than when she was alive, even though 12 years have passed. Back then, I did not have to think about her, because she was always just a phone call, or a drive to the city, away. Don’t take your Moms or a mother figure in your life for granted. Tell them today how you feel about them. There will always be a tomorrow, but it may be without your Mom. F. Catfish Potesta, Langley

Female break-in artist jailed A 20-year-old Langley woman is spending the next two years behind bars for five separate residential break-ins committed throughout Metro Vancouver. On May 3, Kebrina Marie Bell pleaded guilty to five counts of break and enter and was sentenced to time in jail. On Aug. 30, 2012, a residence in the 3200 block of 270 Street was broken into
and cash was taken from the bedroom. Lower Mainland Forensic Identification Services attended and both fingerprint and palm impressions were taken from the scene. After a comparison process, it was determined the impressions belonged to Bell, said Langley RCMP Cpl. Holly Marks. Once this information was relayed to Langley Street
Enforcement Unit, they completed a comprehensive review of related investigations where Bell had been identified as a suspect. Four additional breakins were identified in jurisdictions throughout the Lower Mainland. Working with Crown Counsel and policing partners in Surrey and Port Moody, a detailed report was submitted and charges were approved.
Euphemisms pass for discussion from PAGE 10
copy a popular NDP stance instead. She was all about families, which can of course be single people, single parents or pretty well anything you want them to be. In fact the decline of the traditional family and the abdication of responsibility by many parents, fathers in particular, are central factors in the problem of poor and neglected children. But you can’t talk about that, at least not during elections. Whole areas of political discussion have devolved into euphemisms that are chosen because they can’t be defined. Everybody’s in favour of “affordable housing,” for instance. What they won’t admit is that this is code for subsidized housing, because then they would have to talk about how much the subsidy is, and who has to pay for it. Good grief, that might raise the question of whether the state should be taking money away from some people and giving it to others so they can live where they otherwise couldn’t afford to live. We even have rules preventing the media from reporting polls on election
day. People might be influenced by this, you see. If you tell them Party X is far ahead, they might stay home and mow the lawn instead. If you tell them someone is making a comeback, they might change their vote because they want
to be on the winning side, or the one that has “momentum.” Just like any other sport. The news media are steadily losing influence with the public. There are many factors involved, including the vast array of information sources that are
available at most people’s fingertips. Another factor is treating the public like they’re idiots. Tom Fletcher is legislative reporter and columnist for Black Press and BCLocalnews.com tfletcher@blackpress. ca

Since opening its doors 25 years ago in Langley City, Budget Brake & Muffler Auto Centre has provided top-notch service for countless drivers from all over the Fraser Valley and beyond. From brake repair, alignments, preventative maintenance such as fluid flushes and tire rotation, to getting your air conditioning system in tip-top shape for the upcoming warmer months, this auto repair shop – a franchise with 32 service facilities throughout B.C. and Alberta – is a leader in the automotive industry. “We continue to maintain this position by providing an outstanding level of customer service and excellence,” said Andy Nagra, who took ownership of 5923 200 St.
location just over two-and-a-half years ago. Andy and his friendly/knowledgeable team are committed to upholding a pledge of honesty, reliability and affordability for every job, big or small. “We reflect the honesty and trust you remember from the old-fashioned neighbourhood auto repair shop,” he said matter-of-factly. Having been a popular destination for motorists for a quarter of a century and counting, many who come to Langley Budget Brake & Muffler Auto Centre are third-generation customers, according to Andy. “We’ve been here in the community for a while and many of the customers are the children/grandchildren of those who came here for servicing back when we first opened. It’s really nice to see that kind of loyalty.” For Andy, the customer interaction and being able to help his customers save time and money is what he enjoys most about his job. “I’ve gotten to know so many great people working here – people who have become like family. And I’m kind of like their family doctor, except I treat their vehicle.” While the customer service is undeniably part of Langley Budget Brake & Muffler Auto Centre’ winning formula, it’s the affordability and reliability that has put this auto shop on the map and in the heart of its customers. “We provide great service, but we are also very honest and reliable,” noted Andy. “At the end of the day we will tell our customer what their vehicle needs and

You & The Law
PRESENTS Using your cell phone to prove accident liability Cell phones are great gadgets. Now, as well as being useful for talking (but not while driving!) and taking pictures, a cell phone can also be a useful tool at the scene of a car accident. It may even turn out to be decisive in the all-too-common situation where a court is faced with the “he said, she said” scenario of two warring parties offering contradictory stories of what happened. Take this recent case before the B.C. Supreme Court. Jodi J. sued Ms. M for personal injuries stemming from a car accident. Right after the accident, Jodi got out of her car and asked Ms. M if she was OK. Ms. M said that she was sorry, she was lost, she wanted to make a U-turn and the accident was her fault. Rather than write the statement down, Jodi asked if she could record the conversation on her cell phone. Ms. M agreed and repeated what she had said. At trial, as sometimes happens, Ms. M changed her story. Her lawyer asked the court to keep the recorded statement out of evidence, arguing it was “hearsay” and unreliable. The court held a mini-trial within the main trial to consider this. Ms. M testified that she had hit her head on the windshield when the accident happened and that she didn’t understand the recording would be used in a lawsuit. She also testified that she didn’t know why she said she was lost, because she wasn’t in fact lost, but was looking for a place to park. The court decided that the recorded statement was admissible as evidence in the main trial. The fact that Ms. M didn’t know the cell phone recording might be used in a lawsuit wasn’t a legitimate reason for excluding it. The question of how reliable that recording was (given, for example, that Ms. M had said she’d hit her head) could be
explored on cross-examination in the trial. In the end, Ms. M was found at fault for the accident, and Jodi was awarded just over $25,000 as compensation. If you’re involved in an accident, a cell phone may be very useful to take pictures of the accident scene and the damage to the cars involved, and to record the names and contact information of witnesses. Also, if possible, see if the other person will consent to making a verbal statement on your cell phone. What else should you do if involved in an accident? Sometimes shock can mask the pain and symptoms of any injuries (such as a whiplash). So if you’re not sure that you’ve been hurt, go to the hospital, your doctor or your local walk-in clinic for an exam. If you start feeling worse the next day (which often happens with soft tissue injuries), see your family doctor, report all your symptoms and follow their recommended advice. Also make sure to report the accident to ICBC. An ICBC adjuster will be appointed to handle the case and take a written statement concerning your injuries. This is done for the benefit of ICBC, and your statement may be used against you later in court (even minor mistakes can be used to discredit you). You should therefore speak with a lawyer first before talking with the adjuster. With luck you won’t be involved in a car accident. But if you are, your cell phone could be very handy.

The need to provide information and services to people as they age towards 65 as well as after they have turned 65 has become a vital concern, as services and income are often times impacted by the change in age — often without notice provided to the individual.

Marking time On Your Mark, an eclectic exhibit of works by former LFAS students celebrates 20 years of graduates BRENDA ANDERSON Times Reporter
A
s high school reunions go, this one sets the bar pretty high. From architectural design, to fashion, jewelry, and more traditional forms of two dimensional artwork, an exhibit in Vancouver’s Yaletown district celebrates 20 years of creative drive, since the first class of Grade 12 students graduated from Langley Fine Arts School. On Your Mark, running now to May 22, features dozens of original works of art and design, which were created by LFAS graduates after they left high school. Fine arts teacher Nancy Crawford, who has taught at LFAS for 19 of those 20 years is co-coordinating the show with fellow instructor Kayla Preston. Seeing the accomplishments her former students have gone on to achieve, fills the teacher with no small sense of pride. “It’s so inspiring to see where they’ve gone and what they’re doing,” said Crawford of the opportunity the exhibit has given her to reconnect with many of her former students. Fifty of the 75-plus LFAS grads whose work is on display in the show indicated
that they would return for the exhibit’s opening gala, which was held May 10. Many of them have gone on to attend prestigious post-secondary art schools around the world and, collectively, the graduates have been offered in excess of $10 million in scholarships to carry on their creative studies. They can now be found working across the U.S. and Canada, as well as in Europe and Asia. On Your Mark certainly reflects the diversity promised when two full decades of art students’ work is gathered in one place, said Crawford. “The show is super eclectic in nature, featuring architectural studies, fashion design, drawings, paintings, sculptural works, animation, photography and jewelry design.” Among the artists whose work is displayed is Hannah Park, who has designed single-use dishwear made entirely from fallen leaves. She uses only steam, heat and pressure to mould the modern-style dinner wear which is oven, microwave and refrigerator-safe during use, and 100 per cent biodegradable afterward. Now 32, Park is among the youngest artists whose work has been featured at the Cooper-Hewitt National Design
Museum in New York, said Crawford. Park, who attended the Parsons school of design in New York City after leaving LFAS, is now coming back to her old high school as an admissions representative for Memphis College of Art and Design. Another of Crawford’s former students, Dan Lee, graduated in 2006 and went on to study architecture at the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD). He is now part of the design team of Moshe Safdie, who created the Vancouver public library as well as a number of other iconic structures all over the world. The architectural group’s latest project is a spectacular high rise residential development called Bishan, which is being built in Singapore and features a long, narrow swimming pool spanning the tops of the skyscraper’s pair of
terraced towers. Jonah West, a 2004 graduate who now lives in Taiwan, went on to become a concept artist and matte painter whose digital creations help transport movie goers and video game players to whole other worlds, which may or may not really exist — whether it’s a moonlit cityscape of what could easily be a preindustrial London, or an awe-inspiring landscape of rock and water and trees. “There are a lot of applications for what he does,” said Crawford. “There’s something (in the exhibit) in pretty much every artistic field,” the teacher added. “It’s completely worth the trip (into Vancouver). It’s so inspiring to see what others are doing with their creativity. “It inspires people to engage with their own creative wellspring. “We see it already, (the exhibit) is having an impact on people who are visiting the show. It’s fueling their creativity,” Crawford said. “I don’t even want to guess how many pieces there are and I helped hang the show,” laughed Preston. “It’s quite eclectic. Anyone interested in any type of art will find something they adore.” ••• The On Your Mark exhibition is featured at the Roundhouse Community Arts and Recreation Centre in Vancouver until Wednesday, May 22. The exhibition is free and open to the public seven days a week — Monday to Friday, from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. and Saturday, Sunday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. It is closed on the holiday Monday, May 20. The Roundhouse is located at 181 Roundhouse Mews, just off Drake Street and Pacific Avenue.

Cat lovers will find plenty to catch their fancy, as will fish aficionados. And bird enthusiasts might want to shake a tail feather and get over to the Flagstop Gallery in Fort Langley, too. Fort Langley Artists Group members have let their animal instincts take over as they get set for the first exhibit of their 20th anniversary season — Fur, Fins and Feathers. It opened this past weekend at the gallery in the historic CN train station and continues until June 16 Fur, Fins and Feathers celebrates the animal kingdom in its infinite variety and offered FLAG’s 20 member artists a theme with plenty of possibilities to get their creative juices flowing for another season. And each of them has come up with a unique interpretation. Margo Harrison, for instance, has created her trademark ‘Comfort Cat’ ceramic sculptures, while Susan Galick has been out painting pelicans. And while Harrison’s pastel cat drawings give the impression one could reach right into the image and stroke actual fur, Vivian Harder’s felines offer a more conceptual take on the species. There are eagles, warblers, horses, squirrels and rabbits, as well as few koi to give animal lovers of all stripes something to admire. Among the artists taking part in this show is Candice Perry Moen — who stepped away from her usual subjects of children and portraits to paint a pair of rabbits for the exhibit. “I like putting people into pictures, so (the animal theme) was a bit of an adjustment. I’m very comfortable painting and drawing rabbits, though, so that’s what I did,” said Perry Moen, who joined FLAG in 2008 after moving to Brookswood from Surrey. She did manage to work in one figure, however — a side-

Although she teaches painting and drawing, alongside former FLAG member Carmel Clare, at the Neighbourhood Art Studio in Walnut Grove, Perry Moen is heavily into printmaking, using the dry point method so that she can work out of her home without using toxic chemicals. Surprisingly, perhaps, Clare wasn’t Perry Moen’s initial connection with FLAG. That was, of all people, her son — indirectly, at least. He was in Grade 3 at the time and became friends with
the son of long-time FLAG member Julie Bourne. The moms got talking and Bourne invited Perry Moen to come for an interview. Before she joined FLAG, the painter and printmaker was a member of a South Delta artists group. One of the aspects of the Fort Langley group she likes is that it’s smaller and allows for “more connection” among the artists, she said. The FLAG artists will be connecting with their audiences each weekend for the next six weeks, taking turns greeting visitors to the gallery each Saturday and Sunday and on the holiday Monday, May 20 from noon to 4 p.m. The Flagstop Gallery is located at Glover Road and Mavis Avenue in Fort Langley.

A packed house at the Langley Events Centre on Saturday afternoon watched Dan Dawson (white, #6) and the Rochester Knighthawks defeat Tyler Garrison and the Washington Stealth 11-10 in the National Lacrosse League’s Champion’s Cup. The game was moved from Everett, Wash. to the LEC since the Stealth’s home arena was unavailable.
Fans fill LEC to watch Champion’s Cup
Langley Events Centre was rocking as Knighhawks and Stealth battled it out Gary ahuja Times Sports
Lacrosse fans in the Lower Mainland have now seen both ends of the spectrum. For the past two years, the Langley Events Centre has hosted pre-season National Lacrosse League action, selling out the venue one time and drawing more than 4,000 fans the next. And on Saturday, it was another capacity crowd of 5,200 fans who watched the NLL Champion’s Cup clash between the Rochester Knighthawks and the Washington Stealth. The Knighthawks won their second straight title, defeating the ‘home team’ Stealth 11-10 in a thrilling final (see page 22). The Stealth were forced from their usual venue across the border in Everett as the Comcast Arena was booked. “I think generally speaking, what this means is we have shown three times that we are definitely a viable (option) for the NLL,” said Jared Harman, the Langley Event Centre’s director of business development.
He added that all three times neither team has had a specific Langley or local connection — besides players from the Lower Mainland — but that has not deterred lacrosse fans from coming out to watch. “I would have to expect if there was a B.C. team or Langley team … people would be that much more excited or get that much more behind it.” NLL commissioner George Daniel has long said the league would love to return to the Lower Mainland. The Vancouver Ravens played in the league from 2002 to 2004. “(Saturday) was a packed house,” he said. “You can’t really ask for anything more than that. I think everyone that was in the building really felt the electricity and the enthusiasm.” “It was a great event.” Daniel said the league knows the popularity of the sport in the Lower Mainland. “It continues to show that there is a real core support of fans wanting to attend NLL games in British Columbia,” he said. “I think we all know that and it continues to bolster and support what we already knew. “It allows us the momentum to continue the discussions we have had about trying

One challenge Saturday’s event did face was parking. Some people were tweeting that nearly residents were offering parking for $10. The LEC has about 1,500 free parking spaces, but getting into the lot was proving problematic. Harman said that there were still some open spots in the east parking lot shortly before the game began at 4 p.m. “I think it is an education process,” he said about patrons not knowing there are three separate entrances to the facility. “Obviously with this game in particular, there were probably a lot of fans who weren’t from Langley and they might only be aware of accessing the LEC from off 200 Street.” The facility can also be accessed off 80 Avenue and 202A Street. “I think it is a job of us better communicating to the people who are attending — and it is the same for any of our events — teaching those people how to get in and out of the facility and I think those things will alleviate those challenges,” Harman said. There was also a firefighters’ banquet in the LEC banquet centre, as well as the usual activities at the Langley Gymnastics Foundation, Willoughby Community Park and the Willoughby Community Centre.

to secure the right ownership group to bring the NLL back to British Columbia on a more permanent basis.” For their part, Harman and the LEC would welcome bringing professional lacrosse to town, providing everything fit in place. “We would love to have that discussion,” he said. “It would obviously be a great opportunity for the facility and the community. “(But) it would have to be the right situation and right circumstance.” Harman did say they are looking into bringing an NLL pre-season game — as well as coaching clinic — back to the LEC. Hosting a Stealth regular season would be very “unlikely” said team president David Takata, citing the team’s contract to host their nine regular season games all at Comcast Arena. Takata was impressed with the LEC and their production of the Champion’s Cup, especially considering the short time they had to plan the game and festivities. “To sell out any venue in a week’s time is a success,” he said. “They are very organized and they have a commitment from the top down at the Township of Langley. “I think just that level of commitment helped immensely.”

The temperature wasn’t the only record falling in Bellingham last week (May 6). James Allenby shot a blistering 10-under 61 — a new course record at the Bellingham Golf and Country Club course — to win the 18-hole U.S. Open Local Qualifier event on May 6. He did so on a day the thermostat hit 78 F (25 C), setting a new heat record for Bellingham for that day. The 28-year-old teed off earlier in the day when the temperatures were a bit lower. “It was pretty hot still for most of my round,” he said on Thursday, back in Langley and helping out at Langley Golf Centre, which his family owns and operates. “I was able to stand the heat and keep it going.” Allenby, a former allAmerican from Oregon State and a 2002 Langley Secondary graduate, came out firing in Monday’s round — his first-ever on the course — and never let up. “I knew I had a shot at doing something good,” he said. “When you birdie your first four holes … whenever you get a start like that, you know if you play solid, you can post a low number. “(And) when I got through eight holes and I was already at seven under par, then 59 crosses your mind, the best round of golf you can play.” Fifty-nine is considered golf’s magic number and in the long history of the game, only four professional golfers have ever carded a round that low. For his part, Allenby was oblivious to the fact he was getting close to the club record of 64, which was held by multiple golfers. “It never occurred to me that I could be setting a course record,” he said. “I was just thinking about a personal record, play the best

Knighthawks edge Stealth in final A packed house saw a thrilling final as the Rochester Knighthawks held off the Washington Stealth 11-10 to capture the National Lacrosse League’s Champions’s Cup. The NLL title game was played at the Langley Events Centre in front of a capacity crowd of 5,200 on Saturday afternoon. The game was moved from Everett’s Comcast Arena to Langley because of a scheduling conflict for the Stealth. The title was the second consecutive championship
for the Knighthawks, while the Stealth were in the championship game for the third time in four years and were looking for their second title. “It was worth the ticket,” said Rochester head coach Mike Hasen. “It was a great game back and forth, offensive in the first half, defensive in the second half.” The Knighthawks led 5-2 after one quarter before the Stealth cut the lead to 10-7 at the half. Both teams tightened up defensively in the second half
and by the end of the third quarter, Washington trailed 10-9. Rochester was led by Cody Jamieson, who had three goals and five points, and Dan Dawson had a goal and four assists. Jamieson earned game MVP honours, despite battling an injured ankle. “At the start of the game in warm-ups it was hurting,” he said. “(But) once you get in the game, adrenaline just takes (over) and you forget about it.” See more at www.langleytimes. com.

A Great Janitorial Franchise Opportunity
I
t is with great sadness we say farewell to a wonderful husband, father and friend. Ron passed away peacefully, surrounded by his loved ones on May 1, 2013. Ron leaves behind his devoted wife June, his daughters, Rhianna (Luke) and Laura, and his sons, Donald and Roger. He will be lovingly remembered by his grandsons, Corey, Raymond, Ryan and granddaughter, Crystal (Andrew); great-grandchildren, Lana, Zack and Skyla Ronnie; his brother-in-law, Walt Davies of Langley, BC; his mother Bobbie May of Leduc, AB; his brothers Brent (Cindy) and Tom (Evelyn) both of Pigeon Lake, AB; and his sister Lois Warwick (John) of West Vancouver. He was predeceased by his father Mel May of Leduc, AB and his sisterin-law, Debbie May of Devon, AB. In the early 80s, Ron started his own business and through his own ingenuity and hard work, the company, Protel Network Design Ltd., remains a successful telecommunications company, now owned and operated by Ron and June’s daughter, Rhianna. Ron’s talent as a singer, songwriter, playwright, director and actor was confirmed by the many awards he won over the years. He won the Kiwanis Award for best actor in 2006 for senior theatre. He won the top prize in the Langley Senior Idol competitions in 2006 and 2009, singing his own composition; he was a semi-finalist in the 2008 Red Robinson talent contest at the PNE singing a song he composed; he won a gold medal for best director and a silver medal for best actor at the BC Seniors’ Games in 2008. Ron was a finalist in the 2011 Langley Has Talent contest, also singing songs of his own composition; The play he wrote most recently – Love, Lies and In-Betweens – won silver medals for both best production and best original script in the BC Seniors’ Games in 2012. Ron was a key actor and director with several local theatre groups – the Footlight Players, the Murrayville Performers and the Centre Stage Players. The groups produced many of the plays Ron wrote. Ron played with several bands over the years including Lazy Morning. For the past few years, Ron played his guitar, keyboard or bass guitar and sang lead and harmonies with Renaissance, a small group that performed at local gigs. Over the years, Ron sang and acted in many plays with local singer, actress and dear friend, Barb Nelson. Wherever Ron was, he studied people, gathering characters and situations for his next play. His contribution to the musical and theatre scene in Langley will be missed but through the many songs he composed and the plays he has written, his music will live on and and his delightful sense of humour will continue to be evident in the characters he created in his plays. Ron began performing on stage when he was 16 years old, and whether he was singing and playing his guitar, in a group or solo, or he was a character in a play on the stage, he was a real showman and loved entertaining an audience. He will be missed by his family, friends at work, friends and colleagues in the music and theatre communities, his little dog Emma Jayne and his audiences. A special thank you to Shannon Dutchyn, our doctor and friend for her kindness and support and also to Dr. Russ Stogryn for his exceptional care. Many thanks to the helpful staff at Fraser Health - especially Dr. Adamson and Jill “The Nurse” who helped Ron stay at home for so long. Thank you for the caring support from the staff and volunteers at the Langley Hospice where Ron spent his final few days. Many thanks to our wonderful neighbours. June would like to thank her good friend, Marie Larson and Ron’s sister, Lois for their continuing support. A heartfelt thank you to our dear friend Diane Gendron-Cooney. The special bond she and Ron shared is very rare. Thank you to Ron’s mom, Bobbie for giving us Ron. Memorial donations in memory of Ron may be made to the Langley Hospice Society. Online: www.langleyhospice.com/donations.html By Phone: (604) 530-1115. By Mail: Langley Hospice Society, 20660 - 48 Avenue, Langley, BC V3A 3L6. Condolences at: www.myalternatives.ca/aldergrove/obituaries/2013-may-ronald-melvin Please check the same website for details of Ron’s Celebration of Life which will be announced at a later date.

passed away in her home on Sunday, April 28, 2013. She was predeceased by her husband, Norman Josephson in 1981. She is survived by her children Susan Yaciw (Don), Shelley Scott (Gary), Shirley Rowe (Mitchell), Gordon Josephson and Sharon Josephson (Mike Boulter), and four sisters Dorothy Watson, Rosemary Allen, Ruth Baxter, Margaret Peterson and one brother Daniel Watson. She has 14 grand children, four great grand children and many nieces and nephews. Kathy was born in Eriksdale, Manitoba on June 10, 1933 to George and Dorothy Watson. She was the third of seven children. Kathy was raised on the family farm in Eriksdale and at the young age of 17, due to ill health, she followed her big sister Dorothy to Penticton and eventually settled in the Lower Mainland to begin her family. Kathy was a member of the Royal Canadian Legion. She actively volunteered her time doing the Seniors Shop By Phone as well as becoming involved in Kiwanis and the local Seniors Drama Club. She took on the challenge of understanding the computer after her retirement and spent many happy hours playing online games alone and with others. She also became a member of the Book Crossing group where she collected books to ‘release in the wild’. She will be missed by her many friends and family. A memorial service will be held on Saturday, May 18th, 2 p.m. at Henderson’s Langley Funeral Home, 20786 Fraser Hwy., Langley. The service will be followed by a reception. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in honour of Mum to the charity of your choice.
