The app also includes short videos featuring doctors from around the province providing information and methods to cope. “It’s amazing to have these professionals behind me. It shows that this isn’t just some app created by a 17-year-old girl,” she said. “The aim of the app is to take someone from feeling the worst they have felt to ‘I’m OK.’” In addition to the app, Glazier is focusing on writing a book designed for preschooland elementary-aged children that would teach them positive social behaviour. The book and app are set to be released in mid-September, but Glazier will be giving the community a preview of her efforts this weekend at the Spirit of the Sea Festival. Along with hosting the Waiter’s Race, Glazier will have an orange tent set up on Saturday and Sunday with T-shirts and wristbands in her signature colour. “You won’t be able to miss us,” she laughed.
The City of White Rock will not hire inhouse legal counsel, despite projections it will exceed its budget in that department for the fourth year in a row. The issue was raised at Monday’s meeting of the finance and audit committee by Coun. Helen Fathers, during discussion of the city’s quarterly financial report. In the report, director of financial services Sandra Kurylo notes the city’s legal expenses are expected to be $40,000 over budget by the end of this year. “I know in the past we have talked about ❝Legal costs having a legal person are a bit of a on staff. black hole.❞ “Have we given any more thought to that?” Wayne Baldwin Fathers said. mayor In 2010, the city went over budget on legal fees by $104,300. That number climbed to $123,650 in 2011 and, in 2012, came in at $149,800. However, Mayor Wayne Baldwin said past experience with in-house counsel had resulted in an increase in costs. Baldwin added that the city currently receives legal advice from a number of sources, and the city would be restricted to one person if they took on a legal staffer. Dan Bottrill, the city’s chief administrative officer, noted the legal increases were a result of unexpected issues, including the planned purchase of the city’s waterworks from Epcor. “This year was a little unusual because of some of the things we were dealing with, including the purchase of the water utility – these are things you won’t see normally,” Bottrill said. The mayor did, however, ask staff to provide a detailed breakdown of legal expenses in order to pinpoint where the money was being spent. “Legal costs are a bit of a black hole, and sometimes it might be useful for council’s information to have a bit of a breakdown to see what issues have been causing the increase in cost,” he said.

and Delta residents is completely unacceptable. People in this area are already contributing disproportionately to TransLink, through the higher fares, and being forced to buy more gas (and thus pay more gas tax). TransLink property taxes in this area are not discounted in any way, despite a lower level of service, and it’s likely even true that there are fewer fare cheats in Surrey than in Vancouver, where cheating is rampant. And refusing to pay for a bus ride does not just involve the marginalized members of society. Veteran bus drivers have often pointed out that many of the serial cheaters wear business suits. There is virtually no fare enforcement on buses. While a referendum on new sources of funding for TransLink is scheduled for some time in 2014, Surrey, Delta and White Rock residents need to ask themselves if they want to continue paying disproportionately. TransLink has been very slow to address fairness of service issues, at least partially because of the mayors’ council, which is dominated by mayors from communities where service is markedly better. It is high time that residents south of the Fraser got a better deal from TransLink. While few politicians even want to talk about it, we likely would be better off with our own regional transit system south of the Fraser, as long as it retains good links with the rest of the system.

In a June email, the New York resident told PAN that the property has been looted “practically on a daily basis” and that the family had followed every directive from the city. “We’re so disturbed by everything that happened,” Cohen said. “We did exactly what we were told to do.”
A 27-year-old Surrey man is in custody following a stand-off at a South Surrey home last week. Police say Air 1 – the Mounties’ dedicated helicopter – and the Emergency Response Team were dispatched to the 15700-block of Croydon Drive late July 24, after a man wanted on two outstanding warrants was tracked to a home in the area. He was believed to be armed. After the suspect refused for several hours to comply with police demands to exit the home, officers broke through the door at 6:30 a.m. Thursday. Rodd Kerr, who lives directly below the suite where the suspect was staying, told Peace Arch News Monday that the RCMP had evacuated certain suites and placed marksman on balconies. “There were snipers on our balcony and the SWAT team was in the unit below us,” Kerr said. “They evacuated the entire third floor.” No shots were fired.

Police said a taxi driver was driving on 102A Avenue near University Boulevard just before 11 p.m. when a car pulled up on the driver’s side and an occupant fired a shot into the cab. The bullet passed through the driver-side rear window, then through the passenger compartment of the car where people were sitting, and out the passenger rear window. The cab driver stopped immediately and the suspect vehicle took off. The four passengers in the cab – two males and two females – also fled before police arrived. No one was injured. Police have spoken to the passengers, who indicated the shooting followed a dispute at a nearby party. Cpl. Bert Paquet said police are actively seeking the suspect vehicle. – Sheila Reynolds

West Cloverdale residents opposed to lands removal from ALR
Farmland fight renewed
Celebrate BC with TURNABOUT! 100% BC owned and operated for 35 years Best Consignors & Beautiful Clothes
Jennifer Lang Black Press
Residents of a west Cloverdale neighbourhood are marshalling opposition to a request to remove more than 14 hectares of farmland (about 35 acres) from the Agricultural Land Reserve (ALR). The application by a consortium of property owners centres around seven parcels of farmland fronting Highway 10 between 168 Street and the Serpentine River. Surrey city council has referred the application to the Agricultural Land Commission (ALC), acting on an April 2013 planning report that said problems with the site include poor drainage and soil quality, along with the fact that the land is physically separated from other local farming operations by the four-lane highway. The city’s report says the applicant’s bid is supported by two agrologists’ reports that state the site isn’t suitable for agricultural use. (The reports were prepared by the applicant’s consulting agrologist with EvEco Consultants Ltd. and a second agrologist with From the Ground Up.) The report also notes the proposal is not in compliance with Official Community Plan policies to maintain integrity of the ALR and its existing properties; and, doesn’t comply with several aspects of a city policy for considering applications for exclusion of land from the ALR.

The developer is asking to exclude 14 hectares from the ALR. verdale ALR (keepwestcloverdalealr.webs.com) has prepared a draft letter opposing the current request, and is sharing it with their neighbours in hopes of preserving the property as farmland. Group spokesperson Peter Friend said they have collected about 100 signed letters so far, and hope to gather more at an information meeting they are hosting tonight (Aug. 1), 7 p.m. at Christ the Redeemer Anglican Church, 16613 Bell Rd. Friend said the group learned of the current application when a neighbour saw a sign posted on the land on July 15. The sign states that the deadline to make a written submission is Aug. 6. “The biggest thing is people have no idea that this is happening. They picked a time when everyone is on holiday, and we
have less than three weeks to respond,” he said. “It’s just horrendous.” And while there is some suggestion that may have been extended, Friend said Wednesday there has no written confirmation. “We can’t afford to take a chance on false information, even if it may be true,” he said. Friend described the report by EvEco’s agrologist as “a bunch of hogwash,” because the study was conducted in November following a heavy rainfall. He pointed to minutes kept by the city’s Agriculture and Food Security Advisory Committee stating the agrologist had not seen the land during regular growing season. This application is the latest hurdle in the residents’ battle to keep the land their homes overlook as farmland.

Surrey woman stole millions from engineering firm
Jail time for bookkeeper Sheila Reynolds
Thank-you to our loyal customers!
Black Press
A woman who admitted to stealing millions from a Surrey engineering firm has been sentenced to four-and-a-half years in jail. Ellen Norris pleaded guilty in March to theft over $5,000 and was handed the prison term in New Westminster Supreme Court at the end of June. The reasons for sentence were just posted online this week. According to the court document, Norris had worked as a bookkeeper at Megatech Engineering Ltd. since 1986. She was accused of stealing $2.9 million from the company between May 2000 and September 2005. The theft was discovered by happenstance, when a WorkSafe BC audit was conducted and the assessment officer noticed Norris’ income for 2004 was said to be $78,524, but the company’s payroll ledger showed it at $195,141. A subsequent investigation showed Norris had, over the years, signed 577 cheques totalling more than $2.6 million that benefited her. There were payments to American Express

When confronted by one of the company managers, Norris, who is now 64, confessed immediately and was fired in 2005. A civil suit was launched against her and the company’s external accountant and the criminal proceedings were pursued in 2010. The theft, according to the sentencing decision, caused considerable damage to Megatech and “threw it to the edge of bankruptcy.” On top of the jail term, Crawford ordered Norris repay more than $2.3 million to Megatech.

There were also other “miscellaneous” cheques totalling about $238,000. The bills, according to court documents, showed thousands of dollars were spent on expensive clothing and jewelry. Norris also wrote cheques for her own salary of $589,665 over those years. At a salary of roughly $60,000, the Crown noted she overpaid herself by approximately $265,000.

Festival can’t float on its own
C
all it Spirit of the Sea or Sea Festival, a summertime event celebrating the seaside splendour of White Rock and the Semiahmoo Peninsula has been an ongoing feature of the community since 1952. Annual city celebrations were part of the scene even before that, of course – it was to fill the void left by waning interest in the city’s formerly vibrant May Day celebration that the idea of a sea festival was first floated (pardon the pun) in 1949. It took three years to bring the idea to fruition, but it was an almost instant success, resonating with residents even though traffic-handling and a shortage of parking at the waterfront were issues even then. In the ensuing six decades, the fortunes of the event have ebbed and flowed almost as much as the tides in the bay. But even with changes of name and organization structure, the event has survived – even though it seems to be something that everyone looks to someone else to provide. Each year, organizers face an uphill battle of co-ordinating details and scraping together funding. Each year, the event is reprieved, somehow, in spite of flagging interest in shouldering responsibility, and complaints (usually from those not wading in to help) that it’s not the festival of old. And so we reach 2013 and a festival that organizers admit on the official website is some $8,500 short of its funding goal (and even though it’s still a free event, donations will be gratefully accepted). If we feel that the event is a huge midsummer hassle we can do without, then we should stand by with arms folded, waiting for its demise. If we feel it’s more trouble than it’s worth to manage, then we should look the other way, when organizers appeal for help from the community. But if we like the idea of a sea festival; if we, like the residents of 60 years ago, have pride in our community and a desire to celebrate it, then we should be willing to put our money where our mouth is, literally or figuratively. Whatever else you may have going on this weekend, make the festival part of the plans. Help can come in many ways – by donating, by volunteering or by participating; showing active and energetic appreciation that the Spirit of the Sea is still a vital and viable event. If the festival is to continue for years to come, it’s time to get up off our patio chairs, quit complaining and be the change we hope to see.

recent provincial election campaign. Even the venerable Game of Life, which was unveiled in 1860, the very year the U.S. Civil War began, has managed to stay relevant with society’s ever-changing values. The game I remember from my childhood had players choosing to go to college or get a job, the latter being a decision that would likely land a player in the “poor farm;” the former being a choice that would likely see the player retire in “Millionaire Acres.” In the 1990s, the game was updated with recycling and helping the homeless added to the play. The latest version of The Game of Life, which we purchased a few years ago, had me baffled as I studied the board. On a spot just over the second bridge was a commendation for helping African orphans – something definitely foreign to The Game of Life of my youth. Of course, the next updated version I buy will likely have us landing on spaces that gift us 20 per cent pay hikes as city administrators, or spaces giving us 100 per cent medical and dental coverage, courtesy of taxpayers in The Game of Life. Hey, it happens in Real Life, so why not in The Game of Life? Video games and 3-D movies do not have exclusive domain over virtual reality. It’s right there, in our closets, on boards carrying memories of your youth. Do yourself a favour – drop the Wii remotes and dust off Battleship. It will feel good.

Decisions not for the people Editor: Re: Council votes to move chambers, July 25. I am appalled that council has voted to move the council chambers out of city hall. I applaud Mayor Wayne Baldwin on his stand stating it “should not happen.” I can assure you that Coun. Helen Fathers will never get my vote again, as well as the other three councillors who voted in favour of the move. Just imagine what could be done with the increase of $37,000 in annual operating costs: 1. Clean up Johnston Road from North Bluff Road to Five Corners. Talk about trash and litter everywhere; 2. Fix uneven sidewalk bricks everywhere along Johnston; 3. Install larger front street signage with illuminated lettering; or 4. Look after the city’s other pride, the beach. I challenge everyone to go down there on a weekend for four hours and use the washrooms, especially the one by the pier. What about the historical signage at each end of the promenade? Where are the priorities? The move itself will cost another $184,000 (estimated). Just to move your meetings. Imagine how ridiculous this is. Plus, another $400,000 to put in an elevator. I am sure Helen Fathers will say it’s not required, but if having council meeting at the Fir Street building eliminates one single person from attending due to access, then the elevator will have to be put in. You all should be ashamed of putting yourselves before the citizens of White Rock. Howard Pateman, White Rock n Something strange happened on the way to city council the other day. Council was voting on a zoning change for properties bordering Marine Drive on West Beach, or CR-2 zoning to CR-3 zoning. Despite all the letters to council, letters to the newspaper, consultation with the city planner, more than 100 signatures on petitions from local residents, numerous residents speaking against the changes at city council, not one single person from the public speaking for it, and delays by council to vote on it, it happened! City council approved it at the July 15 meeting. So, now expect four storeys and beyond on Marine Drive as developers/owners rush to cash in on the new changes permitting them to do just that from the earlier three-storey limit. And with the variances being granted these days, who knows what will actually be approved. You don’t think this will happen? Then you were not at a recent public meeting for developing the Ocean Beach property. White Rock is open for business. The residents be damned. This city is up for sale. Thank your city council, specifically Mayor
Wayne Baldwin, Couns. Louise Hutchinson, Bill Lawrence, Grant Meyer and Larry Robinson. Couns. Al Campbell and Helen Fathers listened to us and voted against the changes. Remember this for the next election. Simon Bergen-Henengouwen, White Rock
ER needs more than just renos Editor: Re: ER gets much-needed boost, July 18. It was good to read Frank Bucholtz’s article about the considerable improvement of Surrey Memorial’s ER. The assumption is made here that apart from a great service improvement the waiting times are likely to go down.
Unfortunately, Mr. Bucholtz does not mention how this will relate to the frequently heard shortage in ER doctors. All hospitals complain that there are not enough ER-trained physicians. Of course it is a huge improvement if ER patients will not have to wait many hours for a bed or even a chair, but will there also be additional physicians and nurses to see and treat these patients in a reasonable time? It would have been great if he would have covered this issue, too, and I would be happy to hear that this part of the problem was and is addressed. Klaus Kittel, Surrey
Dangerous intersection Editor: We have been living in the
neighbourhood of Panorama Ridge in Surrey for about two years now, and we have been watching the traffic worsen. I have concerns regarding the intersection of 60 Avenue and 129 Street. There is a fire station, an elementary school and a park (under construction), yet, there is not even a single crosswalk. It is hard to turn onto 60 Avenue from 129 Street and vice versa due to low visibility. The road is also very narrow and the cars parked on the side make it even worse. It is also very hard for pedestrians to cross the street as well. There is also a problem regarding the speed. My request to the city of Surrey is to enforce a new traffic law, or put traffic lights, a three-way crossing or speed bumps in. Accidents have been happening and more will if changes aren’t made fast. Jagjivan Sidhu, Surrey

Letter-writer D. MacMillan says TransLink lifetime passes further subsidize the adequately compensated.
File photo
Not onboard with lifetime passes Editor: Re: Optics for lifetime pass ‘terrible’ for TransLink, July 25. So, I’m asked to pay $170/month for a three-zone transit pass ($2,040/year), or about 10 per cent of my humble income. After recently getting laid off from full-time and moved to on-call at work, I figured day passes would be more cost effective: I got a fine which would’ve gone up to 45 per cent of my monthly income at my worst month if I didn’t pay within 30 days for forgetting to punch a pass one rushed morning. Last summer, I worked a full-time labouring job and ended my work week by working two consecutive 14- to 18-hour shifts at two other jobs, with often only a threehour “sleep” in-between and lunches at the bus stop. Just call me a University of B.C. graduate with some
youthful energy trying to get ahead in this society. My tasks included cleaning up vomit at 3 a.m., but it was no less pleasant than the jobs of many fellow British Columbians living paycheque-to-paycheque. Those who actually work outside in the middle of the night in the mud and rain building our transportation infrastructure are not financially thanked. But they, and all us other apparent lowly people, are asked to everincreasingly give more and more and to subsidize those who already “got.” Now I have to read about some TransLink “board members” who are being “thanked” for their “major contribution” by doing their already adequately compensated job in which they get to wear nice shirts to work and not lift more than five pounds should they break a nail.

A third with room for 125 vehicles and 600 passengers will be used for peak-season service on the Gulf Islands run and replacement duty while the other two are undergoing maintenance. Qualified Canadian and international shipyards will be invited to bid, with a contract to be awarded by January 2014. BC Ferries CEO Mike Corrigan said the focus is on cost savings and standardization of vessels, many of which now have different deck heights and dock requirements. The last major contract was for three Coastal-class ferries, completed by a German shipyard in 2007 and 2008. They now serve the main Vancouver Island runs. Corrigan said BC Ferries will examine if new ships can be run on liquefied natural gas instead of diesel.

Premier Christy Clark took a break from cabinet meetings in Vancouver Tuesday to be sworn in as MLA for Westside-Kelowna. One of the cabinet’s first tasks is to launch a “core review” of government programs, with a target of reducing overall program spending by $50 million this year. Energy and Mines Minister Bill Bennett is in charge of the costcutting exercise, and was to release terms of reference for it on Wednesday (July 31). Clark has described this core review as different from the one that former premier

Gordon Campbell led after the B.C. Liberal Party formed government in 2001. The new review will focus on identifying functions that don’t need to be done by government, and reducing excessive regulation that Clark described as a natural accumulation of all governments over time. Clark led the B.C. Liberals to a 48-seat majority in the May 14 election, but lost her own seat in VancouverPoint Grey. Westside-Kelowna MLA Ben Stewart agreed to step aside so Clark could run in that seat, which she won handily in a July 10 by-election.

And he’s been teaching me a lot too, on the technical side of it.” While Snell has no solid plans for pursuing photography once he’s done high school, he has been delving into the business end of things and learning about marketing his work. In addition to selling his prints at the beach, he has also set up his website to allow online purchasing, and is booked to shoot at several events around the Lower Mainland. For now, he plans to spend as much time as possible on his hobby and see where it takes him. “I’m just gonna keep shooting,” he said. “The more experience, the better.”

oversight is inadequate at best, absent at worst One must ask, ‘why?’ Do governments lack the will to insist that commercial enterprises are operated in an environmentally responsible way? Is profit-making more important than sustainability? It’s thought-provoking that the communities that are most outspoken in opposition to rampant development are found amongst aboriginal peoples in Australia, Canada, India and Latin America; peoples who live on the land and are close to their environment. There are indeed green parties and movements in the more developed world but they make up only a small proportion of their communities. Again one can ask, ‘why’? Have we become too complacent? Do we switch off when we hear a Chicken Little alarm yet again? Will we whistle while Rome burns? Worst of all, how can the populace exercise any measure of control over global corporations bigger than many governments? Perhaps Shakespeare said it best “.. the fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars but in ourselves that we are underlings...”. Remedies are known, let’s ensure they are used fully, the alternative could be a sleep-walk to disaster. Dr. Roy Strang writes monthly on the environment for the Peace Arch News. rmstrang@shaw.ca

hil Dickson is on a roll. The personable, upbeat White Rockraised troubadour has every reason to celebrate. He and his girlfriend Talia are expecting their first child in early October and he is riding a high wave of creativity with an album’s worth of new material ready to be recorded. Icing on the cake will be previewing some of the new material for his hometown as he headlines the Bear Stage (at the end of the promenade on East Beach) for the Spirit of the Sea Festival, Saturday night (Aug. 3) at 8 p.m. Talking on the phone from a beach near Victoria, Dickson reflected on the developments in his life since he was last featured in these pages, at the time of his first album-release party in December 2011. The successful release was

We’ll have to mic the floor really well, set every mic perfectly, and, even if we have to play 100 takes of each song, we’ll get it. “With the right musicians it means you’ve got the potential for the magic of the moment, when everything clicks and everyone looks at each other and smiles.” Dickson’s music hasn’t really changed character, but it has grown, he feels. “The first album had a lot of lullabies and love songs, and I still like to play those whenever I perform for people,” he said. “About the only thing I’d like to change is that now I really want to make people dance. On the first album (and in the video) the song Nothing But The Love had this dancingaround-the-campfire, sharethe-love feeling, and I want to make that energy even more danceable.”

“A lot are silly, but some are a bit thoughtful as well,” he says. “Like the Cat In The Hoody – that cat has issues. He’ll only sleep in my hoody and nowhere else. Kids have their issues, too.” Tell said he also likes to foster audience participation. “I like to break up performances with little moments with kids that encourage them to be on stage with me, ask them questions.” The most powerful element – whether singing, or storytelling or simply blowing bubbles – he added, is allowing children space and permission to use their own imaginations. “The look in kids’ eyes when I really make contact – it’s so unusual,” he said. “They just sparkle.”

provincials last week, White Rock will likely be considered one of the favourites to win the event, thus punching their ticket to Williamsport. That kind of expectation comes when you haven’t lost a game in weeks. At the District 3 championships early last month, White Rock rolled through the tournament with a perfect 6-0 win-loss record, beating Whalley 7-2 in the final. Then, at provincials, they also went undefeated – even beating Hastings 12-9 in the round-robin. However, the final game very nearly went the same way it did two years ago, with Hastings emerging victorious. The Vancouver team led 2-0 heading into the fifth inning, and White Rock had been struggling most of the game to string many hits together. But in the fifth, with one out, Ryan Dauphinee hit a single, and the next batter, Ethan Scardina, hit a come-backer to the pitcher that – in an attempt to get
Dauphinee out at second – he threw into the outfield. Then, with runners on first and second, Riley Wallack hit a chopper up the first baseline and beat the throw to the bag, loading the bases for Matt Benson. Benson promptly singled, scoring two runs to tie the game, and the next batter, Matt Mele, repeated the feat, with another single that scored two more runs. “It was nerve-racking, for sure,” Crossley said. “But the kids showed a lot of strength, not giving up when it looked like we were down to our final six outs. “It’s a battle-tested group, and they stuck with it, and just kept knocking on the door until they finally broke through.” Cody Sigouin started the game on the mound for White Rock, but left in the fourth inning and was replaced by relief pitcher Tate Dearing, who was credited with the win. “Tate really shut the door and closed it out for us,” Crossley said.

Missed turn costs open-water swimmer a spot on podium
Weinberger fifth in Spain A missed turn at a buoy is all that kept South Surrey Olympian Richard Weinberger off the podium at FINA World Swim Championships last week in Barcelona. Weinberger, a 23-year-old open-water marathon swimmer who won bronze at the 2012 Summer Olympics, placed fifth in the men’s 10-km swim last week, just 0.7 seconds behind bronze-medal winner Oussama Mellouli of Tunisia. Midway through the grueling race, Weinberger, who was among the lead swimmers at the time, missed a buoy and had to double back to repeat the turn. After the race, Weinberger called it “a fatal mistake.” “I’m one of the strongest guys out there and I know I could have come first. It’s just so disappointing that I made such an amateur mistake and I didn’t notice the turning buoy pass on my right,” Weinberger said in a release. “I know I’m better than that.” Weinberger, who now lives and trains in Victoria, did make a valiant comeback, but came up just

Richard Weinberger placed fifth in the 10-km open-water marathon swim at FINA World Championships in Barcelona. shy of third place after battling for bronze with two other swimmers – Mellouli and France’s Damien Cattin-Vidal. “We’re disappointed he made a mistake around a buoy and had to make that up. That obviously cost him a little bit more energy than he wanted to put in. He still fought really hard,” said Weinberger’s coach, Ron Jacks.
“It shows a lot of character. It shows that he doesn’t give up.” Later in the week, Weinberger also competed in the toughest race in open-water racing – a 25-km marathon. In that race, which was won by Germany’s Thomas Lurz, Weinberger – who had never before competed at that distance – finished 26th.

Fundraiser set for East Beach
Kicking for cancer Nick Greenizan Sports Reporter
While most beach-goers will be barefoot or wearing flip-flops on the sands of East Beach this weekend, one man will be wearing football cleats. Josh Collins – a South Surrey native now living in Langley – will be at East Beach Sunday, Aug. 4, kicking field goals as part of his Kicking Cancer charity initiative. Collins, a former professional football kicker in the Arena Football League, now spends much of his time raising money for his own cancer foundation, the Ron Collins Foundation – named after his father, who passed away from lung cancer in 2011 despite never having smoked a day in his life. The foundation aims to help families and friends of those suffering from the disease. On Sunday, as part of the Spirit of the Sea Festival, Collins will attempt to kick “about 250” field goals through large inflatable uprights between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. The endeavour is the latest in a number of similar ones for Collins, who is taking his Kicking Cancer program Canada-wide. In June, he kicked field goals at Vancouver’s Jack Poole Plaza, and has done the same in Edmonton to coincide with a recent Canadian Football League game between the Edmonton Eskimos and Saskatchewan Roughriders. Other events – in both Canada and the U.S. – are currently being

scheduled with the help of CFL and National Football League teams, he added. In 2012, Collins kicked off – pun intended – the Kicking Cancer program by booting 100,000 yards worth of field goals (2,858 kicks) in 48 hours. “I couldn’t walk for 2½ days after that,” the 32-year-old said. “But last year, it was about awareness and getting things going. This year, we’re really trying to take it further.” For more on the event, and the Kicking Cancer project, visit www. kickingcancer.ca

Life among the trees at Intergulf’s Cedar Creek By Kerry Vital
There’s nothing as wonderful as coming home after a long day and relaxing. The townhomes at Intergulf Development Group’s Cedar Creek North are like a breath of fresh air on Coquitlam’s master-planned community of Burke Mountain. “When you buy at Cedar Creek you can rest assured that you are getting the best-built townhomes the industry has to offer,” says Intergulf ’s Sasha Faris. “Our townhomes offer luxurious
finishes, great design and a palatable price to go along with it.” The homes at Cedar Creek are spacious and inviting, with their open floorplans and beautiful features. The kitchens are particularly gorgeous, with their stainless-steel appliances, custom-built Shaker-style wood cabinetry, natural granite countertop and island and chic glass mosaic tile backsplash. The bathrooms feature their own custom-built Shaker-style cabinetry, complemented by a natural granite countertop with a granite backsplash, vanity mirror with matching wood frame
NEW HOME DEVELOPMENT
and a modern custom-built cubic vessel sink. A soaker tub and rain-head shower nozzle adds to the feeling of calm in the space, along with a sleek ceramic tile bath-shower surround and porcelain tile floor. The electric fireplace in every home is perfect for gathering around for some cozy downtime, or if you’re in the mood for some sun, the lush landscaping draws you outside. You’ll also find private balconies, patios and decks in the homes at Cedar Creek. Burke Mountain features several parks and schools in the neighbourhood, with shopping, dining and recreation opportunities just minutes away in the Coquitlam Centre area. The community is a highly sought-after location, so Faris notes that time is running out to purchase. “With this being the last phase of the Cedar Creek townhouse project, this is the final chance to own affordable luxury atop Burke Mountain,” she says. Homes at Cedar Creek North start at $419,900 and are move-in ready. For more information about Cedar Creek, visit www.cedarcreekhomes.ca or call 604-880-1880.

The homes at Citadel Heights are built in a Craftsman style, with private decks and porches. Among the gorgeous features you’ll find in your new home is a convenient kitchen island, stainless-steel appliances and plenty of space to entertain, bottom right.
Exceptional homes at Citadel Heights By Kerry Vital
Bluetree Homes is hitting new heights with Citadel Heights, its single-family home community in Port Coquitlam. With an established location, gorgeous homes and the peace of mind that comes with buying from a well-known developer (Bluetree comes from ParkLane Homes), there’s no better time to buy than right now.
The surrounding Citadel Heights neighbourhood is becoming a popular place to live, and these 29 homes are selling quickly. “The response to this new community has been outstanding,” says Bluetree’s General Manager, Sales and Marketing Yosh Kasahara. “We’ve already sold all of the homes in our initial release and are now pre-selling homes that will complete later this year.” Bluetree is known as your friendly neighbourhood builder, and the reputation continues with Citadel Heights. The Craftsman-style architecture and rich exterior colours combine to make for a striking picture as you arrive home. There’s definitely no shortage of curb appeal here. “Our buyers love the Craftsman-style architecture of these homes,” says Kasahara. “These homes will retain their value because they have that timeless look.”
Join GVHBA Wednesday, Aug. 14 and network with the best!
The four- and five-bedroom floorplans range from 2,800 to 3,515 square feet. Big windows and a great room layout in some homes combine for an airy, spacious feeling that lets the natural light flow from room to room. You’ll especially love the dramatic vaulted ceilings in the master bedroom. Every home includes plenty of outdoor living space, with either decks or patios and front porches. You’ll also find a neighbourhood with mature landscaping, and established parks and schools just minutes away. The gourmet kitchens are centrally located in every home for maximum convenience. That continues with their eating nooks, breakfast bars and kitchen islands, making entertaining or a quick meal extremely easy. Buyers are able to choose between traditional shaker-style cabinetry or a modern flat-
panel style. Stainless-steel appliances are complemented by the quartz composite stone countertops, ceramic tile backsplash and sophisticated undermount cabinet lighting. Hand-set porcelain tile flooring is included in the entrance, kitchen and nook, powder room and laundry room, with elegant engineered hardwood throughout the rest of the main livings areas. The gas fireplace with its contemporary quartz composite stone surround and custom-designed mantel is sure to be a showpiece, or just the perfect place to relax. In the ensuite, you’ll find quartz composite stone countertops, a spa-like tub and shower with a decorative ceramic and glass accent and your choice of shaker-style or chic flatpanel cabinetry. Citadel Heights is perfectly situated, with shopping, dining, schools and recreation very close by. You’ll also have easy access to the rest of the Lower Mainland via Lougheed Highway or Highway 1, giving you the best of both worlds: a quiet neighbourhood within easy reach of every amenity you can imagine. “This community is unique because the surrounding neighbourhood is already established,” Kasahara says. “We know these homes won’t last long because there simply isn’t anything like this available in the market today.” Homes start at $829,900.

It is with profoundly heavy hearts that we announce the sudden passing of our beautiful Stephanie. Tiny, tenacious, talented...bold, beautiful, inside and out...above all kind and caring this young woman left us all too soon, though the legacy of her will live infinitely. Stephanie was a devoted and loyal daughter, sister, aunt, granddaughter, niece, cousin, nurse and friend. Her compassionate spirit lightened the lives of so many. Stephie will be deeply missed. Our family invites those she touched to a service of remembrance on Wednesday, August 7, 2013 1:00 pm at Victory Memorial Park Funeral Centre, 14831 28th Avenue, Surrey, B.C. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made for Yoga Outreach or to a charity of choice.

••• Larry (Laurence Wilson) Murray Oct 22, 1924 to July 28, 2013
Larry left us on Sunday July 28, 2013 in Osoyoos, British Columbia, at the age of 88. Born in Vancouver on October 22, 1924, Larry grew up in White Rock, BC on Sunnyside Road. At age 17 he joined the RCAF Swordfish Squadron 415 and served with Bomber Command, stationed in York, England, serving as F/O and rear gunner on a Halifax bomber. He lost his entire crew on 6 January 1945 when they collided with an RAF Halifax over Germany on a night campaign. He married Pam Brockhurst in April 1948 and together they raised Bruce and Janis in Vancouver and on the Sunshine Coast. They celebrated their 65th anniversary this year. After the war, Larry worked as a parts clerk for two car dealerships, then learned stationary (steam) engineering and worked for a number of companies, finally as Chief Engineer for four major buildings in downtown Vancouver before being forced in to retirement in 1985 after a quintuple heart bypass. Larry spent his retirement years doing what he loved most – cycling, gardening, dancing at the Legion, traveling and enjoying his grandchildren. In 2008 Larry and Pam moved to Osoyoos to live with their daughter Janis and son-in-law Marcel. He is predeceased by his parents John and Anne and his brother Bill. He is survived by his wife Pam, brother Jack and sister Eleanor, son Bruce, daughter Janis, son-in-law Marcel, daughter-in-law Beril, grandchildren Adrian, Ryan, Shanan, Tammy, Marcella, Ken and Karen, great grandsons Liam and Nate. A Memorial Service will be held at Crescent Beach Royal Canadian Legion #240, 2643 – 128th Street (Ocean Park area), Surrey B.C. on Saturday, August 10, 2013 at 11 o’clock Interment will be held at Sunnyside Lawn Cemetery on Friday, August 9, 2013 No flowers by request.
