Aldergrove rec centre costs rise Facility will cost $50 million to build, Township council informed DAN FERGUSON Times Reporter

The Township of Langley will either have to find another $15 million or start cutting features from the planned Aldergrove recreation centre. The news was delivered to the Monday afternoon meeting of council in a consultant’s report.

Vancouver Police are seeking charges against another 27 suspected Stanley Cup rioters, including a 24-year-old Langley man. It’s the final bulk batch of charges VPD say they’re requesting related to the night of mayhem and violence more than two years ago in downtown Vancouver. A 25-year-old Port Coquitlam woman is accused of punching another woman in the face who tried to protect an unmarked police car in the hours after the Canucks lost the Cup final. Police say the Good Samaritan suffered facial and dental injuries, while the attacker was also caught on video entering The Bay. The Langley man, who was out on bail on firearms charges the night of the riot, may also face assault and riot-related charges. He was filmed kicking another man on the ground in a swarming attack on Granville Street and later was taped breaking into the Bay. Three high school friends from Victoria are expected to face up to 15 charges. “The three were captured on video committing multiple crimes throughout the night, including break-ins to four separate businesses,” VPD Supt. Dean Robinson said. They were later caught by Transit Police on SkyTrain with store merchandise that still had price and security tags attached.

The trial of the man charged in connection with the 2011 collision on 16 Avenue that killed Langley school bus driver Jim Neiss got underway in Surrey Provincial Court Monday. During opening statements, prosecutor Damien Assonitis told the court that based on the testimony of several eye witnesses, as well as comments made to the RCMP by the defendant, the Crown would prove that Glen Edwards Theriault “was driving with a marked departure of care” on the morning in question. “The evidence will show that the dump truck drove into the Ford Explorer and that Mr. Theriault was operating the vehicle in a way that was dangerous to the public,” Assonitis said. Neiss, 59, died just after 5:30 a.m. Jan. 18, 2011 when his eastbound Ford Explorer was hit head-on in the 19800block of 16 Avenue by a Sterling dump truck that had reportedly crossed a double-yellow line to pass a small white car. The force of the impact compressed the front section of the Explorer into less than half its width. Theriault — who was charged 10 months after the collision — pleaded not guilty to dangerous driving causing death during a brief court appearance in April 2012. Neiss’ widow, Brenda Michie, who was joined in court Monday by several friends and family members, told Black Press that the start of the trial has brought back the pain of losing her husband. “You would think after 2½ years you would almost get to the point where you’re

seeing some light and you’re getting your life back,” Michie said during a brief recess. “After today, it doesn’t feel like that.” Michie was visibly shaken during testimony from Crown witness Langley RCMP Const. Baxter Morgan, which included photos taken from the scene. Crown is expected to call more witnesses — including drivers who were in the area in the minutes leading up to the collision — to testify in the coming days. Neiss — a bus driver with Langley Times file photo the Langley RCMP Superintendent Norm Gaumont was on hand the day after the January 2011 crash, to show School District since 2003 — members of the media the remains of a Ford Explorer crushed by a dump truck in the 19800 block of 16 was on his way Avenue.

Wall farm objections as Township approves new community plan DAN FERGUSON Times Reporter

The document which will guide the expansion of Langley Township into a community of more than 200,000 people over the next 28 years was approved Monday night, by a 6-3 vote of council. The new Official Community Plan (OCP) was opposed by Councillors David Davis, Kim Richter and Michelle Sparrow, because of its vision of a much bigger community and the inclusion, in a new university district around Trinity Western University, of the much-criticized Wall project that puts a housing project in the middle of farmland.

The OCP aims to update the existing community plan, which was created back in 1979, with a more modern approach to planning and development. It projects the near-doubling of the Township population to more than 211,000 by 2041. That will require 37,000 additional housing units, or an average of 1,300 new homes every year. Richter was worried about the effect the growth will have on the 19 wells that currently supply half the Township’s drinking water. “If we’re going to double our population, water won’t stay cheap,” Richter said. “I don’t feel the need to double the population of Langley,” Davis said. “It’s

too rapid.” Davis called the Wall proposal a “huge issue” for him. “I can’t support the university district with Wall’s piece of property in there.” Both Richter and Davis tried to get the wording of the OCP adjusted to address some of those concerns, but couldn’t muster enough support. Mayor Jack Froese spoke for the majority when he said the new plan might not be perfect, but it represents a big improvement over the old plan and it can be adjusted over the future. “It does provide us with a road map to get us forward,” Froese said. “This is a very important document.” The OCP now goes to Metro Vancouver

regional district for review, and hopefully approval, before it comes back to council for one final vote and implementation. However, the Township and Metro Vancouver are also embroiled in a lawsuit involving the university district, so approval is far from a done deal. Residents of Forest Green manufactured home park, who staged a protest at the July 10 council meeting, were on hand to speak about the OCP. Their presentation followed an information meeting for the residents on July 17, attended by most council members. Details of the residents’ presentation on the OCP will be published in next Tuesday’s Times, and that story is available online.

CITY OF LANGLEY “The Place to Be!”

NOTICE OF INTENTION TO ADOPT A NEW COUNCIL PROCEDURE BYLAW NO. 2904 WEDNESDAY, JULY 31, 2013 In accordance with Section 124(3) of the Community Charter, notice is hereby given that the Council of the City of Langley intends to consider adopting a new “COUNCIL PROCEDURE BYLAW NO. 2904, 2013” at the July 31, 2013 Special Council meeting which commences at 7:00 p.m. in Council Chambers, 20399 Douglas Crescent, Langley, BC. The new Council Procedure Bylaw is a result of a thorough review of the bylaw. Language throughout the bylaw has been updated for clarity and the following changes to current Council Procedures are as follows: • Incorporation of the recent change to the term of the Deputy Mayor from 6 months to 2 months effective 2014; • Provision to appoint an Acting Mayor in the event of a lengthy absence or vacant office; • Revision of the Order of Business section to streamline the meetings and minutes by consolidating items. The new Order of Business will be as follows: • Public Hearing; • Adoption of agenda; • Committee of the Whole; • Adoption of the Minutes; • Awards, Petitions, Delegations and Community Spotlights; • Mayor’s Report; • Bylaws; • Committee Reports; • Administrative Reports; • New and Unfinished Business; and • Adjournment. •

Councillor Kim Richter called the revised figures “shocking” and said for that cost, the community should get the 50 metre, eight-lane pool residents originally wanted instead of the 25 metre, six-lane pool approved by council. Councillor Charlie Fox hinted some cuts to the project could be required. “It may take longer to get some of the amenities we planned for,” Fox said. “It may not be all that we wanted.” Councillor Steve Ferguson said much the same, sounding doubtful additional funds will be found. “We have to do the best we can with the money we have,” Ferguson said. Councillor David Davis, who has often questioned the need for a new ice arena in an area of Langley that already has one, was protective of the pool.

Further charges not out of the question, say Vancouver Police Riot, from PAGE 1

Police are also seeking charges of break-and-enter, mischief and participating in a riot against two 14-year-old boys. Crown has also recommended charges against Daniel Amesbury, 22, of Maple Ridge. He’s 14th accused suspect to be charged out of 15 identified by police in the brutal swarming attack on Good Samaritan Robert Mackay, who tried to

Although large batches of charge recommendations are no longer expected, the VPD says further charges may come one or two accused at a time. “For those rioters out there that believe they can wait us out and hide from us and be disguised with anonymity, we will find you and you will be brought to justice,” Robinson said. Police have sought a total of 1,204 charges against 352 rioters

keep looters from breaking into The Bay during the riot. Amesbury is charged with assault, participating in a riot, disguising his face to commit an offence, break and enter and four counts of mischief. Robinson said many charged and convicted rioters continue to ignore court-ordered conditions. Random checks by investigators have found 28 in breach of conditions who have since been charged.

ON ALL CUSTOM DRAPERY ORDERS

Adoption of the Agenda has been added to the Order of Business section where new items and notices of motion/motions will be raised. Not only will this help to streamline the meeting but allow staff to create agenda item “markers” on the web-stream which cannot be done without some notice of the item. Addition of a new section including basic rules on motions for information and clarity. Changing the start time of closed meetings to 3:00pm or later to allow for an earlier start time when required.

“We need to stick to the plan,” Davis said. Council made no decision on the funding matter at their Monday meeting, the last before they take the month of August off from public meetings. Neither the consultant’s nor Leavers’ reports addressed the impact on the cost estimate of council’s decision Steve to build a larger pool than Ferguson the four-lane, 25-metre “short course” pool recommended by staff, a notion that drew heat from pool supporters. At the time, an “Aquatic Needs Assessment” report by Professional Environmental Recreation Consultants (PERC) Inc. said going from four to six lanes would add $600,000 to $1 million to the cost of the project, plus an extra $150,000 to $200,000 a year to operate.

LANGLEY CITY

Acting mayor appointment delayed due to booking error BRENDA ANDERSON

and Tuesday, July 30, to ensure that it runs twice before Wednesday’s special meeting. Hall responded that it would be a waste of money, given the profile of the error. “It would be incredible to me that they screw up twice,” he said. The motion was defeated. On May 18, Peter Fassbender was elected MLA for Surrey-Fleetwood. At that time, he indicated he would resign as mayor of the City of Langley in early July. However, he later agreed to a formal request from the remaining six members of council that he instead take a leave of absence, thus allowing council to elect an acting mayor from among its ranks. Once elected on Wednesday, that councillor will perform the duties of mayor until the next municipal election is held in November, 2014. Fassbender will officially resign the position of mayor on Jan. 2, 2014, at which point a byelection will not be required under the Community Charter. The Times has issued an apology to the City of Langley, its council and staff members for the error. The ad will appear in this (Thursday) and next Tuesday’s edition of the newspaper.

Times Reporter

Plans to select an acting mayor for the City of Langley had to be tabled on Monday night after a legal requirement to advertise the meeting for two consecutive weeks in a local newspaper was not met. The advertisement ran in the Thursday, July 11 issue of The Times but, due to a booking error at the newspaper, did not run again on Thursday, July 18, as is required under the Community Charter. A special council meeting will be held on Wednesday, July 31 in council chambers to elect an acting mayor. It will begin at 7 p.m. and is open to the public. In total, six items were struck from Monday’s agenda as a result of the error, including the vote to elect an acting mayor. A motion by Councillor Dave Hall to determine remuneration for the acting mayor was also tabled, as was his motion to introduce a question period at public council meetings. During Monday’s discussion, Councillor Jack Arnold moved that the City place advertisements in both of Langley’s community newspapers on Thursday, July 25

Willoughby Community Hall has been jacked up and moved, just a few metres, to allow for development.

The historic Willoughby Community Hall was moved just a short distance last week, to make way for development. It will remain on the same site at 83 Avenue and 208 Street, but will get a new foundation and other structural improvements, as part of the Athenry Gate development on adjacent property. The hall was built in 1937 and remains a very busy hub of the community.

Drivers waiting for 192 Street to re-open will have to wait a bit longer. The closure of 192 Street for work on the railway overpass will be extended six more weeks after the contractor found contamination, said City of Surrey engineering. “The original schedule we held was to re-open last week but we have extended that until Aug. 31,” said Surrey city engineer Ken Zondervan, who is

overseeing the Roberts Bank Rail Corridor combo overpass project. The project involves three railway overpasses and new road construction and upgrades in Surrey, Langley City and Langley Township.

Three unauthorized health products that may pose serious health risks were seized by Health Canada at Langley’s Well Beings Health & Nutrition Centre. Health Canada’s website indicated the seizure took place on Tuesday at the store, located at Unit 202-22259 48 Ave. The products in question are Progesta-Care Body Cream (Brand: Life-flo), DHEA 25 AgeFree (Brand: Body Performance), DHEA 50 AgeFree (Brand: Body Performance) Health Canada says if you have used any of these products to consult your healthcare practitioner. DHEA is a controlled drug that can cause

higher than normal levels of female and male hormones in the body and could increase the risk of prostate, breast, ovarian, and other hormone-sensitive cancers, said Health Canada on its website. Potential side effects include serious cardiovascular disease, changes in fertility and sperm production. DHEA should be avoided by individuals with a history of abnormal heart rhythms, blood clotting disorders, liver disease and those who are pregnant or breast-feeding. Progesterone can be associated with serious side effects, in particular in certain vulnerable patients (i.e. patients at risk of blood clots). Health risks would likely arise after long term use.

Costs way too high

Trudeau frenzy

or more than a year, Langley Township council has been talking about building a pool and community centre in Aldergrove, on the former Aldergrove Elementary School property. Even though there was no great push from the community for this project to include an ice rink, a new ice rink to replace the 40-year-old arena was included in the project. Township council planned to sell a number of properties in Glen Valley to fund the project, but backed down on selling some of them after a coalition of neighbours, environmentalists and artists formed Watchers of Langley Forests (WOLF) and convinced council to hold on to some of the Townshipowned land as a nature preserve. While several properties are still on the market, there has been no report of any of them being sold. Most people would agree that Aldergrove needs additional recreation facilities for young people. Bus service to the community, especially at night, is almost nonexistent. Other than the ice rink, there is little in the way of organized activities in the evenings. Other recreation facilities are a long way away. Consequently, some young people find themselves with little to do and this sometimes results in anti-social or even criminal behaviour. A pool won’t stop that, but it will offer some badly-needed alternatives. While there is a community centre in Aldergrove already, one specifically geared to offer more activities for young people would be welcome. However, council should not have gone this far down the road without some idea of the cost of this project, which has now been estimated at more than $50 million. That isn’t a great deal less than the Langley Events Centre, which (not including the current building under construction) cost $66.2 million. In addition, there has been very little discussion about just how this will be funded, other than the thus far unsuccessful attempt to sell a few pieces of property. The Aldergrove pool needs to proceed, but council needs to look carefully at all the other elements of the overall community centre/pool/ ice arena plan. Costs need to be cut dramatically. Otherwise, Langley Township taxpayers can expect skyrocketing tax increases for many years to come. Given the many other demands for services, that isn’t feasible.

t was a political frenzy that seemed more fitting for a zealous small town crowd somewhere in the United States. More than 300 people came to Rotary Lakeside Park on a sticky Sunday afternoon to get a glimpse of one possible future for Canada. When federal Liberal leader Justin Trudeau arrived via streetcar #23 with his two young children, there was a buzz along the lake as the crowd brimmed with excitement. When he exited, the 41-year-old spent the next hour shaking hands, signing autographs and posing with adoring locals. It was a cult of personality moment that’s rare in the Kootenays, a place where folks often scoff at these types of events. And though it likely paled in comparison to the Trudeau Mania Justin’s father Pierre created in the late 1960s, it was an evening that will not soon be forgotten. There’s no denying that Justin Trudeau has plenty of political game. He’s well-spoken, charming, goodlooking and grew up in Canadian political royalty. When you ask him a question, he looks you in the eye and answers like he really cares. During the short media scrum, Trudeau spoke about going to visit the place where his younger brother Michel died in 1998. Tears welled up in his eyes, yet he never stumbled. He gave a genuine answer that was moving to even the most hardened local journalists. At that moment he appeared very human, something most politicians can’t easily pull off. Trudeau and the Liberals have their work cut out for them leading up to 2015. In the Kootenays, where voters have not sent a Liberal candidate to Ottawa since the early 1900s, the task for the party is even more daunting. The number of young faces in the crowd was encouraging to organizers. This type of spark provides important building blocks to electoral success. We’re a long way away from knowing whether Trudeau’s populist appeal will translate into ascension to Canada’s highest office, but he looks to be travelling on the right road. —Nelson Star The Langley Times is a member of the British Columbia Press Council, a self-regulatory body governing the province’s newspaper industry.

Kindness Hospital showing signs of dementia appreciated Editor: Re: “Grand old lady has turned 65.” (letter, The Times, July 18). It was with some interest that I read this letter. I did agree with much of it, as my experience of Langley Memorial Hospital over the decades had been positive. However, the writer’s statement “But she remains as dependable and as effective as she always has been” does need to be challenged. My recent experience with LMH suggests to me that the grand old lady is showing serious signs of dementia, including loss of memory, neglect and disregard. About a year ago my neighbour, age 81, suf-

fering from congestive heart failure and failing badly, was taken to the ER. He was admitted to the grand old lady as a patient, given a superficial assessment, and two days later sent home by taxi without any determination made that the home situation was adequate to deal with his condition. He died five hours later. A letter of complaint to the hospital administrator was forwarded to the regional district quality care division for investigation. Three months later a response was sent, which in my assessment was shallow and trivialized the event. The hospital administrator never bothered to even respond.

When I spoke to others in the community about all of this, I was told of other similar and parallel experiences they had. I do not know how dementia is treated, but I do know that neglect and disregard in practise can be addressed. In celebrating 65 years of service to this community, the “grand old lady” needs to upgrade its standards of care, especially to the elderly, and ensure that we as a community can fully agree that she remains “as dependable and effective as always.” Walter Schmidt, Langley

Despite delays, Trudeau makes favourable impression Editor: Justin Trudeau makes a favourable impression on people. Trudeau was an hour late getting to Vernon’s Polson Park to meet with a horde of well-wishers. While I waited in the cool shade of the trees, thoughts about “disrespect for others” and “poor organizational skills” started buzzing around in my mind. When he finally arrived, all those thoughts melted away faster than an ice cube during an

Okanagan summer. After casually stirring up our frustrations with Stephen Harper’s divisive, pigheaded, micro-managing style of governing, Trudeau spun a liberal amount of carnival cotton candy to feed our hopes and dreams. Nevertheless, I believe he is sincerely committed to an egalitarian Canada. But charisma is not enough. He needs a committed team of ethical and competent peo-

ple empowered to achieve specific delegated goals. He can’t do it alone. After he finished addressing the crowd, I was able to weave my way through the throng and pat him on his shoulder. I can’t imagine wanting to pat Stephen Harper anywhere, but I sure would enjoy kicking him in the posterior region. Lloyd Atkins, Vernon

Expect more encroachment on farmland Editor: Regarding the letter (The Times, July 2) authored by Councillor Charlie Fox, “Township council is creating more farmland.” It appears to me he wants to do nothing more than blame his approval to proceed on these types of projects on the Agricultural Land Commission. Fox states that the 80 acres on the Tuscan Farm property, then useless land, sat for decades unused and was contaminated with copper wire. So why, back in 2006, did someone pay $4.2 million for a piece of property in such a state — a property valued at approximately $700,000 by B.C. Assessment? Allowing a subdivision on this property is

spot growth over the Hopington aquifer, and is not in keeping with the existing form and character of the neighbouring properties. As for the Wall property, this is the most bizarre spot growth yet. Fox states that the ecologically sensitive 53 acres being given to the Township are to be preserved as wetland. Is that not what it is today, being adjacent to the Salmon River? We don’t need footpaths next to this ecologically sensitive area. Fox claims a contribution of $1 million for flood control will come forth from this project. I hope the Township gets this cash up front, before anything goes ahead on this one.

I don’t know enough about the Aldergrove property which is being considered for urban development to offer an informed opinion. However, the wording that the ALC has indicated it would consider an application in order to make Aldergrove a sustainable community scares me. That statement may mean we could see a lot more of this type of encroachment in the near future. Any large scale development ends up costing us taxpayers. If this is not so, then why do our taxes keep going up year after year? Dennis Townsend, Langley

Lawsuits cost taxpayers plenty of money Editor: The Township of Langley is becoming embarrassing. It is still extremely puzzling to me why we are condoning building on our designated agricultural land. Surely Township council, who represent the people, can see the eventual devastation that reduction of valuable farmland or wildlife habitat would have on their grandchildren and future generations. It is almost incomprehensible that Trinity Western University, a Christian university, would endanger these future generations by creating a “university district” on arable land. Isn’t this putting the emphasis in the The

wrong place? Therefore, it is not surprising that Metro Vancouver is involved in a lawsuit against Langley for going against the regional plan, which was devised by experts to create sensible rules for all districts to follow. I must assume that Metro Vancouver agrees that to build on designated agricultural land is not as valuable as the future food production and wildlife habitat in the increasingly populated Fraser Valley. Why would the Agricultural Land Commission agree to this plan, considering its mandate? Another issue is the fact that Langley Town-

ship is also being sued for passing a bylaw allowing a large building which does not conform to the OCP and heritage guidelines in historic Fort Langley. This is in a village surrounding the National Historic Site, where B.C. was officially created. There are 300,000 visitors a year coming to experience a special village, not a business centre, in a designated heritage area. The expense of these lawsuits would seem to be an inordinately wasteful way to spend our taxpayer dollars Bays Blackhall, Langley

Editor: I was at the chiropractor’s office for my appointment on Monday, July 15. The doctor was running late, so I missed my ride home with HandyDart. While I was wondering what to do, another patient, by the name of Debbie, very graciously offered me a ride home after her appointment. I would like to give much thanks and gratitude to this generous lady for her kindness. I offered to pay her but she would not accept any money. May God bless you mightily for your kind deed, Debbie. Doris Hickson, Langley

Abortion questions Editor: Polls indicate that most prochoicers are against second and third trimester abortions. All pro-lifers are against all abortions. And most pro-choicers and all pro-lifers are against taxpayerfunded abortions. So why do we still have taxpayerfunded abortions, when most people are against them?

And I sense that the BC Liberals very much like our existence, as being not NDP. The reality is, we take as many Liberal votes, if not more. It’s because what it means to be ‘green’ has moved out of what the NDP view as green, which is a tree hugger. It’s kids going to school, talking about conservation, and going home to talk to their parents. That’s where our votes are coming from.

Outdoor lovers ﬁnd plenty to like at Latitude By Kerry Vital

Porte Development is hitting new heights with Latitude, their newest condominium development in Surrey’s West Panorama neighbourhood. Porte recently opened its three new showhomes, one of which is fully decorated with Ikea furniture, demonstrating that you can own a brand-new three-bedroom home and furnish it for under $10,000.

NEW HOME DEVELOPMENT

Buyers are finding plenty to love at Latitude. “These are large homes all on one level,” says Porte Director of Sales and Marketing Jeanette Chaput. “By taking out the stairs that you would see in a townhome, we are giving space and convenience back to the homeowner.” The spacious floorplans range from 831 to 1,045 square feet in a variety of two- and three-bedroom plans. The building has been constructed with no interior corridors, so you’ll have tons of natural light and a great breeze.

“People love that they have windows on both sides,” Chaput says. “You don’t typically get that in a condo.” The homes themselves include nine-foot ceilings and modern laminate flooring throughout the main living areas. The kitchens feature your choice of Shaker-style or vertical grain laminate cabinetry, complemented by polished quartz countertops, stainless-steel appliances and under-cabinet valance lighting. You’ll also find a built-in wine rack. “Everybody loves the kitchens,” Chaput says. The spa-inspired bathrooms hold their own set of polished quartz countertops, custom-designed vanities and his-and-hers undermount sinks (in most plans). Porcelain tile flooring and oversized showers with frameless glass doors are touches of elegance in a space made for relaxation. Outdoor enthusiasts will find plenty to do at Latitude, with its 8,000-square-foot private courtyard. That courtyard includes herb and spice garden plots, a wooden pergola and outdoor lounge area, a children’s play area and a games lawn. CONTINUED ON PAGE 15 CONTINUED ON P.

Grocery giant Loblaw buys Shoppers Drug Mart JEFF NAGEL Black Press

A $12.4-billion deal by grocery giant Loblaw to snap up Shoppers Drug Mart may further reduce retail competition in B.C. Officials with the two firms denied that will happen, but the transaction does put another big chunk of B.C.’s retail landscape under the control of a single parent company.

In B.C., Loblaw operates or franchises dozens of stores under the Real Canadian Superstore, Extra Foods, T&T Supermarket and NoFrills brands, among others. Its acquisition of Shoppers and its smaller urban stores extends Loblaw’s footprint into more densely populated B.C. markets. Both firms say the deal will yield big benefits, including a bigger national retailing network for the more than 1,200 Shoppers outlets.

Shoppers Drug Mart will keep its brand name and operate as a division of Loblaw, but will expand its product lines, adding Loblaw PC brand private label and convenience food. Shoppers’ Life brands are likewise expected to show up on the shelves of other Loblaw stores. Officials promised they won’t close stores or eliminate loyalty points, adding the Shoppers Optimum and PC Plus loyalty programs will be cross-marketed

across the group. Shoppers shares were up more than 24 per cent Monday on the news, while Loblaw stock was also up 5.4 per cent. The market value of the two companies combined is up $3.1 billion from Friday’s close. The deal still must be approved by shareholders. It comes one month after a $5.8-billion deal by rival grocer Sobey’s to buy Canada Safeway stores.

Public can vote for favourite Langley farm producer Several local producers are among nominees for ‘We Heart Local’ awards Local berry farmer Rhonda Driediger is a founding partner in the first “We Heart Local” people’s choice awards which allow the public to vote on their favourite local farm producer in B.C. People can nominate their favourites across 15 categories

— ranging from Favourite B.C. Farmers Market, U-Pick Farm, to Fave Winery, Brewery, Cheese Maker, Meat Suppliers and more. Buy Local. Eat Natural launched the awards July 1, and the contest runs through to Aug. 5. This first-of-its-kind popular choice awards program

invites all of B.C. to recognize and elevate favourite key players across the food and agriculture industry throughout the province. Langley producers have made the nominations and votes are coming in for One Fish Two Fish, Vista D’Oro, Dead Frog Brewery, Township 7, Driediger Farms, Krause Berry, and more. Driediger, of Langley’s Driediger Farms is chair of the BC Agriculture Council, and founding partner of the We Heart

Local Awards. “No doubt, there’s a movement underway to support and celebrate eating and buying local,” said Driediger. “The We Heart Local Awards will leverage this momentum in British Columbia and get people even more invested in lifting up their local favourites and sharing information with one another in meaningful ways with meaningful outcomes.” Nominations were open July

1 to 15. Anyone living in B.C. could nominate one or more favourites in the categories. Voting is open July 16 to Aug. 5. Anyone living in B.C. can vote for their favourite nominees in the categories listed below by visiting www.facebook.com/ eatlocalnatural Buy Local. Eat Natural. is a not-for-profit community forum that aims to promote and bring together B.C.’s local food products, growers and producers.

Ellenwood continues on Olympic path

GARY AHUJA Times Sports

Georgia Ellenwood was a three-time participant at the Canadian Legion track and field championships, but the first time they are being held in her own back yard — Langley’s McLeod Park — she will be volunteering instead of competing. But that’s OK with the Langley teen. “I prefer to travel (for my competitions) anyways,” she said with a laugh. Instead, Ellenwood will help out as part of the hurdles crew. The championships, which will also be held at McLeod Park in 2014, run from Aug. 9 to 11. They feature 1,000 of the top youth athletes in the sport from across the country, and many of them may be just like Ellenwood and go on to represent Canada in their later years. Ellenwood, who turns 18 on Aug. 5, is one of Canada’s preeminent track and field stars. She is representing Canada at the Pan American junior championships in Colombia at the end of August — her third international competition — and then leaves for her freshman season with the University of Wisconsin Badgers track and field team. All of this is in pursuit of her ultimate dream of representing Canada at the Olympic Games. She is being touted as a potential participant for the 2016 Games in Rio de Janeiro. ••••• Competing at the Legion track and field championships in 2010 as a 15-year-old was a real eye-opener for Ellenwood. The Legion championships are an annual track and field meet for the top Canadian youth between the ages of 12 and 17. Prior to that event, Ellenwood was accustomed to dominating meets. The month before the Legion championships, she won four gold medals and was awarded the W.R. Bennett Award for Athletic Excellence at the B.C. Summer Games. But this was her first time at a national meet and while she still did extremely well — a gold in the high jump, silver in the long jump, 1600 sprint relay and the 4x100 relay, and also fourth in the 200m

Gary AHUJA/Langley Times

Georgia Ellenwood, who will attend the University of Wisconsin on a track and field scholarship in September, is one of Canada’s young, rising stars in the sport. She is also a three-time participant in the Canadian Legion track and field championships, which are being held Aug. 9 to 11 at Langley’s McLeod Park. hurdles — it was an eye-opener for someone who was used to finishing first in every event they entered. “Before that, I was winning everything,” Ellenwood explained. “And then I got there, and saw the competition and it was kind of humbling.” The experience taught her something. “After that, I knew what it took to get to the top,” she said. “I realized I really needed to work if I wanted to get there.” Ellenwood attended the Legion championships twice more, winning gold in the heptathlon in 2011 and then gold in the 200m and long jump in 2012.

2013 SOUL 4U

She has already represented her country internationally, both at the world youth (17 and under) track and field championships in 2010 in France and then at the world junior (19 and under) track and field championships in Spain last year. Both times she competed as an underage athlete. Next up will be Colombia and then hopefully, in three years time, Rio de Janeiro and the Olympics. She has spent time in Arizona training with the Canadian Olympic Development Program, which aims to identify elite young athletes and help them train as they work towards the Olympics and

world championships. For Ellenwood it is all in pursuit of the ultimate dream: the Olympics. “I always thought of the world youths as my first Olympics,” Ellenwood said. “I am still so young and have a lot to work on, but that is my long-term goal.” Ellenwood will track the current elite heptathlon athletes and compare her scores now to when they were her age to see how she measures up. And while some teenagers may have a tough time waiting for something three years down the road, that is not a problem for Ellenwood. continued, PAGE 28

“I would be impatient (for the Olympics) if I was already at that level, but I still have so much to work on that I am going to need these three years,” she said. “I am going to use those three years wisely.” Moving away from home — and her long-time coaches with the Langley Mustangs Track and Field Club, Kim Chapdelaine, Dwayne Lotnick and Tom Nielsen — will be an adjustment. “They are always helping me through everything,” Ellenwood said. “If I need an extra workout, I just have to text them and they will meet me at the track.” “And my parents can be hard on me — ‘you need to work on this, you need to work on that’ — it can almost be like having five coaches, but it has really helped me to get to where I am.” She will also have to adjust to less family support in person as at most local meets, Ellenwood will have her parents and all four grandparents in attendance. “That is why I think I am going to grow up a lot at Wisconsin,” she said. ••••• While some athletes are groomed from a young age for success in a sport, Ellenwood found track and field through her older brother, Stuart, who is now a member of the SFU crosscountry and track and field teams. Youngest brother Dean is also involved in the sport, competing with the Mustangs and at the high school level. The siblings’ parents, Dave and Kari, wanted to sign Stuart up and younger sister Georgia tagged along and took part too. She was hooked. “I absolutely loved it; it was just a fun thing,” she said. “I had springs in my legs; I was bouncy (and) I just had natural talent. “I didn’t know it of course, I was just running around the track.” She was 11 and a few years later, her coaches began training her harder and pushing her. It was at this point, Ellenwood realized she would need to put the work in if she wanted to go places through the sport. And the Legion experience — coupled with representing Canada — confirmed she was chasing the

right dream. “That is when I I knew this is what I wanted to do with my life,” she said. Ellenwood still remembers the first time she saw her Canadian jersey. “I looked at the stuff and saw I was going to be wearing Canada on my jersey instead of B.C. or Langley,” she recalled. “It was just a whole other level.” And while she didn’t medal at any of her international events, just the fact Ellenwood was meeting like-minded individuals was something special. “They have so much pride in their country, it is inspiring,” Ellenwood said. “Being around people who share that same passion and goals and views as I do, is really cool.” And she hopes to inspire others. “I have heard some girls say ‘I am Georgia’ as they jump into the long jump pit,” she said with a smile, referring to the younger members of the Mustangs. “I know they look up to me, which I take pride in. “They started out just like I was and it is cool to see them grow and learn and get better through the year.” ••••• The road to where she is today has not been without its bumps. Just at the start of this season, Ellenwood was questioning herself as she felt the competition was getting better while she remained stagnant. “I felt like everything had stopped and I wasn’t getting better,” she explained. “And that is what I am so afraid of, that I am going to just stop and not keep progressing anymore.” “I actually did one heptathlon where I didn’t get one PB (personal best) and that has never happened to me before,” she added. “That is where patience comes in, you just have to work through it.” And she rebounded from that early season slump, winning four medals at the B.C. high school track and field championships, including a fourth straight heptathlon title. She leaves high school as one of the most decorated B.C. athletes of all time, winning 10 gold and three silver medals in her four years.

The Langley Junior Thunder live to play another day. After falling behind by multiple goals in games one and two, the Thunder exited the first period of Tuesday’s ( July 23) game three tied 1-1 with the New Westminster Junior Salmonbellies at Queen’s Park Arena. And Langley took control in the middle frame, scoring three times while surrendering just one goal to stave off elimination with the 5-3 victory. New Westminster still leads the B.C. Junior A Lacrosse League best-offive series 2-1 after winning 12-6 in game one and 9-5 in game two last week. The teams will play game four tonight (Thursday) at the Langley Events Centre.

Tiebreaker needed for PMBL An extra-innings victory to close the regular season has moved the Langley Senior Blaze into a three-way tie for top spot in the Pacific Metro Baseball League standings. The Blaze won 4-2 on Monday (July 22) on the strength of Jesse Peters’ complete game five-hitter against the Coquitlam Angels at Mundy Park. He struck out 10 along the way. Clayton Howell delivered a two-out double to score Tyler Willson and Howell scored two batters later on a passed ball. The Blaze’s other runs came in the first inning on a two-run blast from Scott Webster. The result leaves Langley, Coquitlam and Burnaby all with 6-6 records. All three will play this weekend to determine which two teams will advance to the B.C. senior men’s baseball provincial championships in Victoria from Aug. 2 to 5. The Blaze are the defending provincial champions. The tiebreaker series will be held at Coquitlam’s Mundy Park with Langley facing the Angels

on Saturday at 4 p.m. in the first game. The Blaze, who also play in the Pacific International League, went 3-1 over the weekend. The team split a doubleheader with the Everett Merchants and then won twice against the Northwest Honkers to improve to 10-6. Highlights include a pair of home runs from Webster, RBIs in all four games — and six in total — from Zach Mihic and a 10-strikeout performance from Shane Kraemer. ••••• The Langley Junior Blaze had a near-perfect weekend, winning three of four games in U16 B.C. Junior Premier Baseball League action. The Blaze swept the White Rock Junior Tritons 8-1 and 5-4 on Saturday at South Surrey Athletic Park. And after opening with a 6-1 win on Sunday at Mundy Park against the host Coquitlam Redlegs, Langley lost game two 2-1. The results leave Langley with a 28-9 record, which is good for second-place in the standings, three and half games behind

North Shore (30-6) with seven games left to play. Langley 8 White Rock 1 The teams traded runs in the first inning and the score stayed 1-1 until the fifth when the Blaze struck for six runs en route to an 8-1 win. Danny Hollins did the bulk of the damage with four RBIs, including a bases-clearing triple. On the mound, Parker Logan threw a complete four-hitter. Langley 5 White Rock 4 The second game required some late-inning magic from the Blaze as they scored twice in the top of the seventh for the comefrom-behind 5-4 win. Nick Laflamme and Kevin Sengara each drove in two runs. Langley 6 Coquitlam 1 The Blaze scored four times in the sixth inning during their 6-1 victory and Tony Pharand allowed one unearned run over five and two-thirds innings. He also struck out 10. Coquitlam 2 Langley 1 The Blaze were one out away from a 4-for-4 weekend before the Redlegs scored twice in the bottom of the seventh to escape with a 2-1 victory.

Dynamite finish second at B.C.’s GARY AHUJA Times Sports

After a rough season the year before at the Metro level, coach Jamie Plowman still had high hopes for his U14 girls soccer team in 2012/13. “We wanted a winning record but mostly we just wanted to get better,” he said. “I have always looked at the improvements of the players as the goal. Plowman had coached the core of the Langley FC Dynamite team for the past six years. “Our girls kept their spirits up all last season so I knew this year would be good,” he said. And the Dynamite made it all the way to the finals of the Provincial U14B Cup earlier this month (July 4 to 7) at North Vancouver’s River Park. But in the end, the team fell

one goal short of their quest for the gold medal, losing 2-1 to the Vernon Selects in the championship game. Jordan Hagen scored in the first half for Langley and the teams were tied at one in the second half, but Vernon pulled ahead 2-1 and the Dynamite were denied the equalizer. “It was a really good game,” Plowman said. “Back and forth for the most part. “We had the bulk of the possession but couldn’t put in a second goal. “We had tons of chances, hit posts, shot wide and a couple over the bar. Their keeper made some good saves as well.” The loss was the lone blemish on the Dynamite’s record at provincials. In the team’s first game, they blanked Nelson 2-0 behind goals from Kylie Poohachoff and Hannah Plowman. The second game saw

the Dynamite erupt for four goals — two from Poohachoff and one apiece from Rachel Lamborn and Jade Nemeth. Facing 2-0 Prince George — and with first place in the pool on the line — Langley battled to a 2-2 draw as Taylor Cahill tallied twice. A greater goal differential (plus 6) enabled the Dynamite to advance to the final against Vernon, which won the other pool. “I always think we can do it,” Plowman said when asked if reaching the championship final was a possibility at season’s start. “We play a really nice game (and) it was just a matter of time before the girls’ strength would catch their skills. “It happened this year and we had a good result.” The team finished with a 15-5-8 record, which includes playoffs.

FUTURE SHOP - Correction Notice

Rams ready for season’s kick-off

GARY AHUJA Times Sports

2012 is a distant memory. That is the mindset of the Langley Rams as they embark on a new B.C. Junior Football Conference season this Saturday night. Last season saw the Rams win the Cullen Cup as league champs, ending the six-year reign of the Vancouver Island (VI) Raiders. But Langley came up short of the ultimate goal — the Canadian Bowl. Langley led the Saskatoon Hilltops 21-6 in the third quarter, but lost 23-21. Nearly 70 per cent of the Rams roster (45 players) is back for the 2013 season, but new head coach Ted Kirby said they wont be resting on

the accomplishments of last season. “We haven’t won anything this year,” said Kirby, who was promoted from assistant head coach to head coach. He will also continue in his role as defensive line coach. Jeff Alamolhoda remains as the general manager. The move is a result of Alamolhoda’s work commitment as he was unable to juggle it all. Both men started with the Rams three years ago. “Last year is last year,” Kirby continued. “It is a great memory and 10 years from now, we might be able to look back on it and think it was awesome, but it was a loss, we didn’t finish. “It’s time to move forward

and worry about this year.” The Rams host the Kamloops Broncos on Saturday at McLeod Park with a 7 p.m. kickoff. “My expectation is just to get better every practice,” Kirby said. “(Saturday) showed some great things but also exposed some weaknesses that we need to work on.” He was referring to his team’s 28-6 victory over the Valley Huskers in a controlled scrimmage. The Rams will be very similar to last year’s squad. “You are going to see a very similar defence as last year: very aggressive and very relentless,” Kirby said. He also predicts the offence — which is led by new

offensive co-ordinator and assistant head coach Kevin Phillips (formerly of SFU) — to be quite dynamic. “He runs a very high tempo, energetic offence,” Kirby said. It is actually quite entertaining to be in a meeting with this guy and watch them do what they do on the field. It is pretty fun to be quite honest.” Leading the offence will be new quarterback Jahlani Gilbert-Knorren, who formally played at the University of Saskatchewan. “He is a special kid, real fun to watch,” Kirby said. “He can beat you with his feet or he can beat you with his arm. “He makes plays happen when there is nothing there.”

Daniel scores four as bantam Thunder win bronze medal The Langley Thunder bantam B2 lacrosse team capped off an amazing season with a bronze medal at the minor box provincial championships over the weekend in Delta. Jordan Daniel earned game MVP honours as he scored four times in the Thunder’s 7-4

victory in the thirdplace game over the North Delta Hawks. Goaltender Jaxon Hendrickson also played an outstanding game in goal. During the round robin, Langley won twice and lost their other game to finish second in their pool.

They opened with a 5-3 win over the Vancouver Burrards, and then scored a dramatic overtime victory over Cowichan Valley. In that game, captain Kyle Olsen forced overtime with just 15 seconds to play and Justin Gauthier sealed

the 6-5 win. The round robin concluded with a 6-5 overtime loss to Delta. The Thunder lost 9-4 to Comox in the semifinals. The bronze caps off an amazing year for the team of mainly firstyear bantam players. Langley’s Ayden

HAFI adapts homes for B.C. seniors and people with disabilities

Brenda has always been an active woman. However, recent health issues including osteoarthritis in her left knee and losing kidney function have slowed her down. Her mobility is limited and she is now on dialysis three days a week. To adjust to her changed circumstances, Brenda sought help with her daily living activities. Part of that help came from the Home Adaptations for Independence (HAFI) program offered through BC Housing. Launched in January 2012, the HAFI program provides financial assistance to help eligible low-income seniors and people with disabilities adapt their homes so they can continue to live independently. Brenda applied for a new walk-in bathtub because she couldn’t safely get out of the tub on her own. Walk-in tubs include additional safety measures such as anti-slip floors, grab bars, and a very low step in. Home adaptations may also include handrails in halls or stairs, ramps for

easier access, easy-to-reach work and storage areas in the kitchen, lever handles on doors or faucets, walk-in showers, and bathtub grab bars and seats. Brenda is a strong advocate for the program and has even shared HAFI brochures with nurses in the renal unit where she undergoes dialysis. If you or someone you know is having difficulty performing day-to-day activities safely and independently – the HAFI program may be able to help. Since the program began, more than 300 households completed renovations with HAFI financial assistance, making it possible for seniors and people with disabilities to continue to live in the safety and comfort of their home.

IN MEMORIAM IN MEMORIAM JOHN VALENTI

MANKOWSKI III March 15, 1962 - July 28, 2003 Each day we think about you and realize you have gone. We can’t explain the emptiness That life has now become. They say that times a healer but we are not too sure, for every time we think of you We miss you and more.

We Love You JJ MOM, DAD, MARCINA & ERIC

One of the brightest lights of our family was sadly turned off with the peaceful passing of our dear husband, father, grandfather, great grandfather, brother, uncle and friend, Clint Collins. He will be sadly missed by his loving wife Muriel, children, Debbie, Sherry (Frank), Dale (Laura), Ray, Mary (Don), Norma (Ken), sisters Carol (Rudy), Maddie (Albert) and brother, Vince (Monica). In addition Clint leaves behind 15 grandchildren, 22 great grandchildren, many relatives and longtime personal friends. Clint grew up in a large family and always maintained his devotion to being the “family guy”. He was devoted to his wife, his children, his many close relatives and his many friends. Clint had a number of different careers in his life, but his passion was driving. He served as a driver in the Alberta oil fields, a milk truck driver, a bread delivery driver and a long haul truck driver. He and Muriel, along with their kids, also successfully operated an orchard in Oliver for a number of years. Clint knew how to provide quality service to his customers and in doing so he grew a large network of friends and fans. Clint also had a passion for the outdoors with many memorable moments with family and friends spent happily around campfires and car top boats, always seeking out the best catch of the day or the best hand of crib. At Clint’s request, there will be no service, but a celebration of Clint’s life will be held at the annual family picnic on August 11, at Noel Booth Park in Langley at 1:30 PM. The family would like to thank the wonderful doctors and nurses at Langley Memorial Hospital for the quality of care they provided to Clint.
