weeks. “This is called the Cloverdale Community Kitchen, so it’s all about maybe there’s other groups.” The push for a Community Kitchen all began when the late Bill Reid of the Cloverdale District Chamber of Commerce, along with Surrey RCMP, asked the church to house the soup kitchen after the former Cloverdale Mall was torn down, leaving the church groups running the soup kitchen and Cloverdale’s Extreme Weather shelter without a home. Three years ago, the city tore down the old Cloverdale mall to make way for Cloverdale West Village, a multi-phase residential and commercial development. The mall was home to the Shepherd’s Inn Soup Kitchen and Cloverdale’s extreme weather shelter, originally constructed thanks to combined efforts by the Surrey RCMP Cloverdale Chamber of Commerce, Cloverdale BIA, Rotary Club, Cloverdale Christian Fellowship and the City of Surrey. With the mall gone, the extreme weather shelter relocated to Cloverdale Christian Fellowship at 102178802 66 Avenue. And the soup kitchen moved to Pacific Community Church at 5337 180 Street. For more on the initiative, visit www.pacificcommunity.ca.
of towels that were donated to a transition house. “I call this the gift that keeps on giving.” Other donors have been just as generous, offering up freebies on expensive items like a commercial grade food processor, for example. Once the kitchen is complete, the project will need more support from the community in terms of food donations and volunteers willing to get involved. Already, a specialty bread store has indicated it will donate surplus stock. He hopes other corporate partners will come forward. The new kitchen will enhance existing soup kitchen initiatives based out of Pacific Community Church and lead to new programs initiated by the church – and from the wider community. The renovations have temporarily halted the three weekly initiatives based out of Pacific Community Church: The Korean Presbyterian Church’s Shepherd’s Inn Thursday noon lunch, and the Monday and Wednesday night cafes operated by Pacific Community Church and the Cloverdale Christian Fellowship respectively. “We think that the clientele will come back very fast, because it is a growing clientele, it’s not a diminishing clientele. The homeless and the marginalized, it’s growing in this area,” he said. “We hope to get those programs up and running and reestablished. But our dream is to reach out to other demographic groups such as seniors and single parents.” That may involve inviting seniors once a month for a meal and an educational series about networking or accessing community services. “It’s the working poor and the growing number of seniors,” he said. “There’s just a huge, growing population.” (Instructor will be here for A bulk buying coopDrop in Dates: erative program is anthe duration of the other idea, bringing costs November 2, 9, 23, game for questions) down for people on fixed December 7, 14, 21 incomes.

Poppy funds are spread around Money raised locally is spent locally, supporting veterans, seniors, and many, many more To the editor; We are fast approaching November 11th and we will be out in the community for our annual Poppy Campaign. This is our major funding campaign to support all veterans and ex-service members. Many of the benefits that are available today are due to the persistence of dedicated Legion members, e.g., the Veterans Transition Program, seniors programs, spousal benefits, and medical assistance. When you purchase a poppy it symbolizes the supreme sacrifice that men and women have given in the theatre of war, and your contribution assists those who are in need of our support. On a yearly basis, The Royal Canadian Legion Cloverdale Branch 6 donates to the community. The money is raised through the Gaming Fund, meat draws, and the Poppy Fund, all of which have specific criteria for their distribution. The Ladies Auxiliary of Branch 6 Cloverdale has also contributed $12,627. Recipients of Poppy Fund donations for 2012 were the following: Veteran’s Assistance Posters & Essays BC/Yukon Comm/Gift Funds 746 Air Cadet Squadron 2812 RC Army Cadet Corps 307 RCSCC Mariner Cadets 2277 RC Army Cadet Corp Navy League of Canada Amos Ferguson Senior Citizen Housing George Derby Centre Peace Arch Hospital Foundation Tapestry Foundation for Health Care Surrey Memorial Hospital Foundation Bethshan Gardens Dominion Command/RCEL

Thanks for parade cooperation Merchants, volunteers and sponsors entertained hundreds of children at Halloween costume event To the editor; The Cloverdale BIA and Cloverdale Chamber would like to thank all of the merchants, volunteers and sponsors of this year’s Halloween Costume Parade. The traditional group shot has over 800 children present in the Museum plaza. A special thanks must go to the RCMP for going above and beyond the call of duty to ensure that the participants were safe as they travelled through some very busy traffic points. Another special thanks must go to the Surrey Museum for hosting their annual Pumpkin Power event in conjunction with the Costume parade and for allowing the children to
gather in the museum plaza. Special thanks goes to Tricia’s Gems, Michaud’s Salon, Spa and Wellness Centre, Fraser Downs Racetrack and Casino, the Cloverdale Lions, CIBC, the B.C.

City opposes coal proposal By Kevin Diakiw About 100 people streamed into Surrey city council chambers Monday afternoon to express their objection to rail cars filled with coal traveling through Surrey. The protest came as Fraser Surrey Docks is expected to soon release the results of an environmental impact assessment ordered by the port authority to further address public concerns about the project. The terminal proposes to open a loading facility that would transfer coal coming by rail through White Rock and South Surrey to barges that would sail down the Fraser River and across the Strait of Georgia to Texada Island, where it would be transferred again to ocean-going ships. Protesters said they’re not satisfied with assurances from Fraser Surrey Docks that coal dust will be carefully controlled and won’t escape and pose a risk to human health. Many also oppose increased exports of U.S. thermal coal to Asia on grounds it will accelerate climate change. “Coal dust and diesel particular matter cause a lot of respiratory illness and cancers” said Paula Williams, cofounder of the opposition group Communities and Coal. “There’s safety issues for people, there’s also emergency access cutoff.”
In all, the Communities and Coal organization has generated 11,000 online signatures on its petition against shipping coal by train to the U.S. At just after 10 p.m., Surrey council voted unanimously to not support the Surrey Fraser Docks proposal and request Port Metro Vancouver to commission a comprehensive health impact assessment, conducted independently, as well as full public hearings on the project. Surrey now joins New Westminster, White Rock, Langley and Vancouver in passing motions either opposing expanded coal exports outright or calling for public hearings and comprehensive, independent review of impacts before a decision is made. The Metro Vancouver Board of Directors voted 21 to four to oppose outright the Fraser Surrey Docks project. Numerous MLAs and MPs have also written in opposition to the project. On Sunday, more than 200 people demonstrated at a rally in New Westminster to register their opposition to expanded exports of coal through Port Metro Vancouver. The new terminal would export up to four million tonnes of coal per year. Although that’s much less than the coal shipments already exported through the region via
terminals at Deltaport and North Vancouver, opponents argue it could be a first step toward greatly increased shipments out of Surrey.
The final decision is the port’s but opponents hope intensifying public pressure and concerns lodged by some local city councils, the
Metro Vancouver board and the region’s medical health officers will kill the project.

INTEGRATIVE APPROACH TO FLU PREVENTION BY DR. HENRY CHENG
The most reliable way to prevent the flu is to take the flu shot together with adopting a healthy life style. The flu vaccine is manufactured with the DR. HENRY CHENG current year’s viral strains and is designed to fight the current year’s flu virus. In order to obtain the appropriate strains the manufacturer needs to wait till the fall when the current virus can be identified and isolated before the vaccine can be produced. It is for this reason that the flu shot is available only in mid-October. There are people who for one reason or another cannot take the flu shot. In this case, using herbal and homeopathic medicines may help to booster immunity so the body can fight the flu bug when it invades the body. Herbal and homeopathic medicines are not proven scientifically and are not accepted by orthodox schools. I must emphasize that homeopathic flu prevention programs should be used in conjunction with the flu shot, or used as an alternative only when the flu shot is contra-indicated. I would never tell people that they can use the homeopathic program to substitute for
the flu shot. Misconception about homeopathic medicine and fear of the needle may compromise the population’s vaccination rate and herd immunity. Herbal and homeopathic medicines definitely can be used as an adjunct to cut down the risk of getting sick. For 20 years I have seen homeopathics work repetitively in humans and animals. Typically a homeopathic prevention program consists of taking Thymuline 9CH once a week for 5 weeks and Influenzinum 9CH also once a week but on a different day of the week and also for 5 weeks. This should be commenced in the fall. Thymuline is made from the thymus gland (not thyroid gland), the organ responsible for producing immune bodies. Homeopathic Thymuline stimulates the thymus gland to produce the appropriate antibodies. Influenzinum is made from the actual current year’s influenza vaccine. It is believed that minute doses of the vaccine may educate the body’s immune system to deal with the flu virus in case of an actual invasion by the virus. Homeopathic medicine is also known to reduce the side effects of vaccination. If you are concerned about side effects of vaccination take three little pills of Sulfur 30CH to be dissolved under the tongue once immediately before and
once immediately after the injection. This may minimize side effects. A herbal complex called Esberitox® containing Echinacea, Thuya and Baptisa is one of the most popular over the counter medication in Germany. On the first symptom of the cold or the flu, chew 2 or 3 tablets every 3 to 4 hours until the symptoms are gone. Taking homeopathic anas barbariae hepatis et cordis 200 CH (Brand named Oscilloccinum®) one dose to be dissolved under the tongue three times daily has also shown remarkable efficacy in lessening and shortening the duration of the flu episode. What do I do every year to fight the flu? I take the flu shot as soon as it is available. I also take Thymuline 9CH and Influenzinum 9CH once a week for 5 weeks. Then I have Esberitox and Oscillo on hand to be taken whenever I feel my neck tightens, my throat feels scratchy, or I get tired for no other reason. Was it the vaccine or the natural products that had protected me throughout the years? Honestly, I believe both of them have contributed to my health.

As they make their way around the golf course, their facades start to unravel and their real life stories begin to unfold, and with the telling of their stories, the lovable, funny, real sides of these characters emerge. It’s directed by Pat McDermott. The Foursome continues Oct. 25-26, and Nov. 1-2 at the Surrey Little Theatre, 7017 184 Street.

Farm hosts spooky tour By Jennifer Lang Lights burn in the darkness at Surrey’s historic Stewart Farm, giving the 1884 farmhouse a slightly otherwordly look in a photo taken during a recent visit. On Oct. 17, members of the Vancouver Paranormal Society shared their discoveries at an evening talk at Stewart Farm, subject of a recent investigation at the house and grounds. Among the revelations? The farm – while not declared haunted – does show signs of unexplained activity, according to society president Peter Renn. Participants were invited to listen to audio clips and watch video footage taken at the house in August, indicative, perhaps, of phenomena that’s residual in nature, but not an active haunting. The society hopes to return to collect more data. Society members revealed how investigations are conducted, a process involving plenty of hightech audio and video equipment, and hours and hours of raw material to painstakingly review for anomalies. They aim to find logical explanations for what they uncover, and do not charge for investigations. Curiously, the team is frequently called out to new buildings – residents are not always acquainted with the sounds of new construction settling in.

Which way to Northern Ireland? Alarmed yet?
P
rior to departure, my friend, Lois Doell, warned emphatically, “Be sure you have comprehensive coverage!” Losing a mirror, she assured me, was a primary tourist hazard when driving around Northern Ireland. As a large van mirror parked on the left connected with my left passenger mirror in Ballycastle, I thought of her. With what I found to be characteristically Irish cool courtesy and
concern, the van owner, interrupted from whitewashing an old pub, sauntered over. “I wondered about the sound,” he said. “You’re not to worry. We’ll sort it.” Calling Dan Dooley Car Rentals he patiently explained we were both minus mirrors, and their client was falling apart. Ballycastle, reminiscent of a KCTS 9 film set, sadly got no more of my attention. Now ‘sorted’, I retreated back to the narrow, scenic, almost deserted (maybe

Armed with Heaney poems, Eugene reads Heaney works to me at locations described in verse – the river, the sports field next to the old cemetery, and a stop at the smithy to meet 95-year-old retired blacksmith Barney Devlin, Heaney’s inspiration for The Forge. Of Heaney, Eugene’s admiration and affection is clear. “He was a very kind man. I can’t believe he’s gone.” Two American couples also staying at Laurel Villa tell me this is their second Laurel Villa Boutique Guest House “roots” visit. In addition to the warm Magherafelt welcome, they remarked that Northern Ireland was more affordable than the south, and equally worth exploring. As I leave, Geraldine and I discover we are both Conways. Are we related? I’ll have to return for one of Eugene’s genealogy research tours to find out.

The Back to the Future car, built by Letourneau’s mom Carley Woodward, will feature a Flux Capacitor powered by Glow-Sticks on Halloween Night.
Parade one of the largest ever By Jennifer Lang Balmy, dry weather drew a huge turnout to last weekend’s Halloween Costume Parade in Cloverdale. Hundreds of children and their families descended on Surrey Museum Plaza for the 13th annual event on Oct. 26, taking part in various crafts and activities before posing for a group photo and then heading out on an afternoon trick-or-treating excursion through the historic town centre. While more than 800 children crowded into the plaza for the photo, the Surrey Museum counted over 1,100 visitors for its Pumpkin Power event held in conjunction with the parade, one of the largest ever. Some merchants ran out of candy before the tides of costumed children abated Saturday afternoon, forcing proprietors like Adrian Clements of Timeless Treasures Antiques to offer free second-hand comics like Archie and Peanuts as an alternative. The Clova Cinema ran out of the 250 free movie passes they were handing out, but late-comers didn’t go away emptyhanded: they were treated with lollipops instead. The event is presented by the Cloverdale District Chamber of Commerce and the Cloverdale Business Improvement Association. – See more photos online at CloverdaleReporter.com

Chilly winter temps not pet friendly elements. While the SPCA responds to countless cases where animals are in serious distress after being deliberately neglected outdoors, even well-loved family pets can become sick or injured in harsh weather. Here are some simple tips to keep your
pet healthy and happy this winter: Antifreeze can be a deadly winter hazard for pets, who find the taste appealing. Ethylene glycol antifreeze is extremely toxic to pets and wildlife — a mere tablespoon is enough to kill a cat or
Road salt is toxic if ingested and can also irritate dogs’ paws. When outside with your dog, pay special attention to where he’s walking and ensure you wipe his paws thoroughly after walks and play to remove any salt. (The SPCA recommends using pet-friendly, non-corrosive de-icing compounds.)

Ice can also cut your dog’s paws — watch your dog closely for signs he may be injured during exercise, and check for cuts and sores after exercise. Cats and wild animals have been known to seek warmth inside the motor compartment of vehicles during winter. Make it a habit to thump the hood of your car before starting it to chase away
any animals who may be hiding inside. The BC SPCA is strongly opposed to keeping pets outside, particularly in cold temperatures. If you must leave your animal outside for short periods, ensure that he or she has an appropriate shelter that is elevated off the ground and insulated. It should also be regularly cleaned and cleared of any environmental debris. The outdoor shelter should also be appropriate to the weight and coat of the animal; he or she must be able to sit, stand, lie down and turn around freely and easily. Your dog must also have access to potable water at all times so check regularly to ensure that the water in the dish is not frozen.

Supporting local businesses is a great way for consumers to find the products and services they’re looking for and help their local economy along the way. Buying locally is not only beneficial for local business owners, but buying locally benefits consumers and members of the community in a number of ways. • Creates jobs • Helps the environment • Creates a more closely knit community • Is more convenient • Benefits your local economy The reasons for shopping locally are many. In addition to helping local business owners, consumers who shop locally are also helping themselves.
Main street revival More merchants back Cloverdale’s historic core
2013 salute to
Small Business
By Jennifer Lang In the past 12 months, a handful of new businesses have opened up in Cloverdale’s historic downtown. Consider the two blocks of 176 Street between 58 and 56A streets, where the number of empty storefronts has dwindled as new additions like a boutique-style pub, several funky antiques and collectibles stores, the local MLA and even a paintball supply store have taken up shop. There have been some losses: Cloverdale landmark Dann’s Electronics closed down in January when Allan Dann retired at age 88, and a small supermarket that supplied residents and businesses alike is gone – but overall the picture is looking as healthy as it’s been in years. As Small Business Month in B.C. comes to a close, you can’t help but think Cloverdale’s downtown is on an upward swing. Most small businesses employ fewer than five employees, but when it comes to the B.C. economy, they do some heavy lifting. Small businesses represent 98 per cent of all
businesses in the province, so it’s no surprise that a healthy Main Street is greeted as encouraging news by people like Ben Wevers, interim executive director of the Cloverdale Chamber of Commerce. Wevers says there’s a palpable sense of optimism along Cloverdale’s 176 Street, the heart of the historic town centre’s business district. “There’s a very brand new vibe on the street,” Wevers says. “You can feel it in the air.” Business inquiries are up at Destination Cloverdale, the 176 Street headquarters of the Cloverdale Chamber of Commerce and the Cloverdale Business Improvement Association, a first stop for visitors sizing up opportunities. “People are coming into the Chamber asking about storefronts,” says Wevers. “What Paul (Orazietti of the Cloverdale BIA) and I are trying to do is steer them to the right people.” He notes the former grocery store up the street is being renovated to accommodate several new businesses.

“On Aug. 6, 1890 it was reported by a New Westminster newspaper that: On the line of the Southern Railway, near the centre of Clover Valley, a number of well-to-do farmers have laid out 160 acres as a town site… the three intersecting railways and designation of Clover Valley Road as the Pacific Highway stimulated the growth and development of Cloverdale.” Reprinted from Jack Brown’s “History of Surrey”.

He’s also thrilled with news that the owners of The Vault Restaurant are opening up a second restaurant in Cloverdale two blocks to the south. Co-owner Aaron Hotell said the location – near Highway 10 – was irresistible, and explains Cloverdale is a natural for investment. It’s accessible as a destination, affordable in terms of investment, and home to a growing population of residents in their 30s and 40s – people who are used to a more urban lifestyle. Dramatic residential growth in the area has spurred interest from entrepreneurs, says Wevers, who adds established merchants and other movers and shakers are taking note, too. Newly-elected SurreyCloverdale MLA Stephanie Cadieux deliberately located her constituency office in the historic centre to be close to the action. And this month, Janet de Brouwer of Love Those Shoes moved her store into the Bank of Montreal building at the southeast corner of 176 Street and 57 Avenue – across from another new establishment, The Henry Public House, one of a string of boutique-style pubs operated by Langleybased Joseph Richard Group. “To me, that creates a new vibe in the whole corridor,” says Wevers, who points out

Even B.C. cabinet minister Shirley Bond, centre, is impressed by the unique character of Cloverdale’s historic downtown. She’s pictured here speaking with Ben Wevers of the Cloverdale Chamber of Commerce at the official opening of local MLA Stephanie Cadieux’s new downtown office on 176 Street.
even B.C. Cabinet Minister Minister Shirley Bond remarked on Cloverdale’s appeal when she was at the opening of Cadieux’s office. “You don’t see anything like that anywhere else in the province,” the Prince George area representative told him. “Cloverdale is a gem,” he says. “We are not a big box area and we will never be.” Things are looking good one block east on 176A Street, too. “Even their storefronts are almost all full.” With all this good news, there is a hitch, however, and that’s that public transportation is lagging behind demand in the area. Lobby-
ing and acting as a voice for business to senior levels of government is one of the roles of the Cloverdale Chamber of Commerce, which represents about 400 business, from as far away as 152 Street and Highway 10 to Clayton Crossing at 188 and Fraser Highway. Wevers hopes the arrival of businesses like Retro Mod, the Bower Bird Stop, The Abode, and Timeless Treasures Antiques signal a return to Cloverdale’s former heyday as the Antique Capital of B.C., a title that has been usurped by places like Fort Langley. The past year has also seen

Cloverdale Pharmasave carries vet grade professional dewormers, ear and eye remedies, flea products, joint medicines, etc. And if you know what is going on with your pet they might have the remedy.

Create-it Emporium
November 1, marks our anniversary — our first year of business! What does your business specialize in? - We are an arts and crafts studio where you can drop in any time to paint your own pottery or create fused glass pieces. We also teach workshops in canvas painting, drawing, sewing, crocheting and knitting for all ages. As well, we host a variety of kid’s parties, kid’s camps and adult parties in our awesome party room!
the addition of two important new heritage attractions – the B.C. Vintage Truck Museum and the launch of passenger operations on the restored heritage Interurban out of Cloverdale Station, a replica of the original 1910 B.C. Electric Railway hub. It’s operated by volunteers from the Fraser Valley Heritage Railway Society, who have just wrapped up a successful inaugural season, drawing visitors from across the Fraser Valley, Vancouver Island, the B.C. interior and beyond.
Success stories are to be found in venues of smaller scope, too: Wevers points to another new business, Createit Emporium, an arts and crafts studio specializing in paint-your-own pottery and more. The studio has rapidly become a favourite birthday party venue with the under 12 set – and the cocktail crowd. It celebrates its one-year anniversary on Nov. 1. “Here is somebody who came into the area not knowing how they would do, and she’s very happy about moving into the area.” Small businesses, he says,
aren’t for the faint-of-heart. But they are the lifeblood of a community. “You’re taking a chance, you’re sticking your neck out,” he says. When construction finally begins on Cloverdale West Village, the long-promised residential and commercial redevelopment project of the old Cloverdale Mall site, another piece of the puzzle in revitalizing downtown Cloverdale will fall into place. “I’m really, really looking forward to 2014,” says Wevers. “I think it’s going to be a good year in the area.”
Mason’s

CLOVERDALE HOME FURNISHINGS Quality, Comfort, Style and Service. All are keys to Mason’s success as a family owned and operated business for over 38 years.

What events or community organizations is your company involved with? - We help out Cloverdale schools and other community organizations by donating gift certificates for their fundraisers and this holiday season we will be supporting the Beauty Night Society, who improve the lives of impoverished women by offering wellness, life skills development and makeovers for their participants, by sewing 200 stockings with the help of our customer volunteers!

John.
Thirty-five years ago, chef John Ikonomou opened his first restaurant in Steveston. Much has changed and now with the entire family’s involvement in Galini, his “newest” restaurant gains depth from a variety of skills and years of expertise. Yet some things stay the same - the cooking is still from scratch with fresh ingredients at an affordable price point. It resonates with the family’s upbringing on the Mediterranean, where food is full of flavour from aromatic herbs, pure olive oil and lemon marinates. Although Greek in heritage, Galini has molded itself as a core community member, whose menu offers the variety people seek.
