Six dogs taken from Langley off-leash park DOG WALKER RETURNED TO PICKUP TO FIND CANOPY UNLATCHED, ANIMALS GONE MONIQUE TA MMING A Time s Re po rte r

CURTIS KR EKLAU Special to Th e Tim es

A woman was airlifted to hospital Tuesday, after being struck by a vehicle as she attempted to jaywalk across Fraser Highway near Willowbrook Shopping Centre. She suffered bruising and a broken pelvis, but is expected to recover. According to police the woman, who is pregnant, made it halfway across the busy road before stepping off the median and being struck by an eastbound car. The driver of the vehicle was shaken by the event, but uninjured. As they carried out their investigation, officers were surprised to see other people making similar attempts to cross the highway illegally.

The owners of six dogs are frantic after their furry family members were apparently stolen from a dog walker’s pickup truck parked at the Brookswood off-leash park on Tuesday afternoon. According to Langley RCMP, the dog walker had taken the six dogs to the popular off leash park in the 4400 block of 206 Street and then put them all in the back of her pickup truck, equipped with a canopy. She left them there so

she could use the washroom, said police. When she returned around 10 minutes later, the canopy had been unlatched and all six dogs were gone. This took place around 1:30 p.m. She searched the area for hours but wasn’t able to locate any of them, said Cpl. Holly Marks. Police attended as well and weren’t able to find any trace of the dogs. “The owners believe their dogs were taken as opposed to having escaped from the truck. Continued Page 4

Casino, Cactus Club seek new booze rules PUBLIC HEARING INTO LIQUOR EXPANSION SCHEDULED FOR JUNE 9 AT CITY HALL B REN D A AN D E R SO N Ti m e s Re po r t e r

If a pair of local businesses have their way, Langley residents and visitors, 19 and older, will be able to drink later and in more places than they are currently permitted. Cascades Casino and Cactus Club Café have both submitted proposals to the City of Langley to have their liquor licences expanded, with the restaurant seeking longer hours and the casino looking to add floor space, both inside and outside the building, where alcohol-

ic drinks may be served. Among the proposed changes to Cascades Casino are the construction of a new pub and restaurant — Match Eatery and Public House — on the building’s west side, where the poker room was formerly located. The restaurant and pub, with seating for 165 inside the building, would include a 135-seat patio and offer liquor service until 2 a.m. The existing Pinnacle Grille is slated to become a licensed, but family-friendly restaurant called The Buffet.

It will be closed off from the casino floor and accessible from the Coast Hotel lobby only. The casino is also seeking to allow patrons to take their drinks out onto the smoking patios, which they are not currently permitted to do. In its proposal, Gateway, which owns Cascades, stated that the purpose of the expansion is “to enhance patrons’ customer experience, while in our facility, and in no way is to promote increased alcohol consumption or sales.” A report by City staff on the proposed

changes indicate that the expansion of liquor service at the casino is in keeping with the intensity of activity proposed for the City’s ‘Entertainment District.’ “The proposed outdoor patios are sufficiently removed from residential developments and no nuisance impacts are anticipated for area residents,” it reads. The report also states that the high level of on-site security provided for the casino serves to reduce crime and public safety concerns. Continued Page 4

Clear-cutting hot line to be set up by Township D AN FERGU SO N Ti m e s Re po r t e r

A clear-cutting hot line will allow residents of the Brookswood/Fernridge area of Langley to report violations of the new bylaw that limits cutting to eight trees or 20 per cent of trees on a property, whichever is less. Until the hot line is running, residents are being asked to report clear-cutting after hours by emailing the Township bylaw enforcement department at bylaw@tol.ca.

The email is checked “every few hours” after closing time and on weekends, Township administrator Mark Bakken said Monday, in response to a question from Councillor Kim Richter. Richter, who won approval for an enforcement policy that uses court orders to stop illicit tree cutting, wanted to know if an injunction could be obtained on a weekend. Bakken said that was “technically possible but unlikely,” adding the arrival of

a bylaw enforcement officer seems to be enough to bring weekend cutting to a halt. Richter said clear cutting trees on weekends was a “really devious” attempt to get around the bylaw. “Don’t think if you sneak around on the weekend, you will get away with it, because you won’t,” Richter said. The Township enforcement policy, adopted at a May 5 closed-door meeting of council, sets out a fine of up to $500 per tree to a maximum of $10,000 for viola-

tions of the interim tree-cutting bylaw. At the same time, council eliminated a requirement for written complaints, allowing people to report alleged tree-cutting by phone to allow speedier intervention. And council also voted to fund enforcement with money from the Township contingency fund. Details of in-camera council votes are usually not made public, but it’s likely the proposal passed by the same narrow 5-4 Continued, Page 5

Restaurant looks to delay last call From Page 1

Langley RCMP indicated that they also have no objection to the expansion of the casino’s liquor licence. Cactus Club Café, meanwhile, has submitted an application to extend the hours during which it is permitted to serve alcohol. Currently, the restaurant at the corner of 200 Street and the Langley Bypass is licensed to pour liquor from 9 a.m. to midnight.

It is proposing to delay last call until 1 a.m. on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays and until 1:30 a.m. on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays. Sundays would remain unchanged, with service ending at midnight. The changes would bring the Langley City restaurant’s hours into line with other Cactus Clubs. According to a report to council, the final decision on both applications lies with the provincial government, which

regulates liquor sales in B.C. However, the report states, the province may not approve a change to an existing licence if the change is not supported by the municipality. Before any of the proposed changes are endorsed by the City, residents and property owners are invited to weigh in on the issue at a public hearing in council chambers at City Hall on Monday, June 9 at 7 p.m. City Hall is located at 20399 Douglas Cres.

Legacy searchers ready to help M O N I Q U E TA M M I N G A Tim e s Re po r t e r

Members of the Langley-based Legacy Water Search and Recovery Society are ready to help search for three young men presumed drowned in Slocan Lake, located in the West Kootenay region. Society president Scott Lebus said they have been in contact with the families and are ready to go if needed. The three men have been missing since their canoe was found last Saturday. A woman was found in the canoe, but died several hours later. “We have been contacted by the families and are standing by. We are using the time to gather gear and volunteers,”

said Lebus. The society has been fundraising and has its big “For The Boys” golf tournament taking place Sunday, May 25 at Newlands Golf Course. They have received sizable donations from Langley Kinsmen and Langley Minor Hockey and others that have helped them purchase equipment, including a remote controlled submarine. The society was formed after Langley teens Brendan Wilson and Austin Kingsborough drowned in Nicola Lake near Meritt last April. The RCMP Dive Team tried for days to find the boys but to no avail. The equipment the police have is limited. The families called on Gene

and Sandy Ralston, a couple from Idaho who volunteer their time to recover drowning victims using special sonar scanning equipment. After Wilson’s and Kingsborough’s bodies were recovered by the Ralstons, the society was formed by Lebus, a family friend of the Wilsons, and other family members and friends. The goal is to provide support to the families going through a water tragedy, and bring closure. The group is still in need of the side scan sonar that can scan the sea floor.

margin that approved the bylaw in the first place. Township staff have told council there have been three alleged violations of the new clear-cutting ban since it took effect on April 29. The first two alleged incidents were reported in the area of 27 Avenue near 200 Street less than two days after the bylaw was passed by council, while the latest was recently reported in the area of 26 Avenue and 204 Street. In at least one instance, RCMP were called to the scene of an alleged clear-cut. The police referred the matter to the Township bylaw enforcement department. The Township has issued an advisory that the clear-cutting bylaw only affects “properties in the geographic area outlined in the Brookswood/Fernridge Community Plan and does not apply to land within the Agricultural Land Reserve or land being used as a farm operation.” Trees may be removed M A R K B A K KE N without violating the bylaw if they are blocking sight lines under the Township’s highway and traffic bylaw or if “they are in an area approved by provincial regulation for a septic field or water well.” As well, trees can be cut down for construction of a building if approved by a development permit, development variance permit or building permit issued by the Township. And trees can be removed if they are considered hazardous, as certified by an arborist, or in case of an emergency if certification is provided to the Township engineering department within 30 days after the cutting. The interim ban on clear-cutting will remain in effect until a new official community plan has been prepared for Brookswood/Fernridge or a permanent tree protection bylaw is passed. It was adopted after several residents of Brookswood complained some property owners were clear-cutting their lots. There was speculation the activity was because a proposed new official community plan would have permitted higher-density housing in Brookswood/Fernridge. The draft community plan was rejected by council after a marathon public hearing. While many residents of the area have supported a tree protection bylaw, many others do not, complaining that the regulation represents an unwarranted interference with private property rights and set neighbour against neighbour.

Tiger died of heart failure MONIQUE TAMMINGA Tim es Reporter

Hani, the two-yearold Siberian tiger at the Greater Vancouver Zoo, died of massive heart failure. “The preliminary results of the necropsy indicated an accumulation of fluid and fibrin in the chest. This pathological finding is most often caused by an infection, said Dr. Bruce Burton, the zoo’s veterinarian. “However, upon closer inspection, this turned out not to be the case with Hani. She died as a result of significant left-sided heart failure caused by an unclassified form of Cardio-myopathy, a chronic and poorly understood genetic disease of the heart muscle.” Burton said many domestic cats and some breeds of dogs suffer from similar forms of Cardiomyopathy and it is almost always associated with sudden death. “Sadly, there are no warning signs with this disease and no

Councillors raise their voices over noise bylaw DA N F ERGUSO N Tim e s Re po r t e r

A complaint about lax noise limits in Langley Township produced some raised voices in council chambers on Monday afternoon. It began when two Willoughby residents said they were plagued by construction noise, and asked the Township to change the 1988 bylaw which allows work between 7 a.m. and 10 p.m. every day of the week, including Sundays and holidays. Erin and Randy Watkins said they’ve had four years of “constant, constant, constant noise” from housing construction under-

way near their 68 Avenue residence. Randy Watkins, who works an early shift, said the late-night noise has left him sleep-deprived and stressed. On one Sunday, he said, an excavator fired up while they were having guests over. “It was embarrassing,” he said. Watkins said his search of construction noise limits in other Lower Mainland communities found none as lenient as Langley. “The Township of Langley has the longest hours,” Watkins said. The Watkins’ came to council with a 46-

name petition asking for an overhaul of the noise bylaw. Later on during the same meeting, Councillor Kim Richter presented a previously-prepared revision to the noise bylaw that would cut back the allowable hours for construction to between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. on weekdays, and from 10 am. to 5 p.m. on Sundays and statutory holidays. Richter called the current law “crazy.” “The vast majority of people who pay taxes in this community are being inconvenienced by an archaic bylaw,” Richter said. Councillor Charlie

Fox objected, calling the Richter proposal “governance by complaint.” “We’re trying to solve problems for people by changing bylaws and substantially change the way we do business,” Fox said. A bylaw should not be passed without full public consultation, Fox said. Fox said the Watkins’ should talk to the developer of the offending project. “They need to sit down with the owner [or] the site supervisor,” Fox said, adding he has personally spoken with the owner about the Watkins concerns.

Richter dismissed the suggestion, saying it was not reasonable to expect the Watkins to personally negotiate noise levels. Councillor Grant Ward observed that the noise would eventually end, once the housing was finished. Councillor Bev Dornan said the idea of restricting construction hours should be studied further before council acts, because it would be a bad idea to change the rules during what she called “prime building season” in Langley. Councillor Bob Long said the Township should study what other municipalities are

doing. “We don’t want to shut the town down,” Long said. Mayor Jack Froese said a review of the 1988 bylaw was in order. “I think it is time to take a look at it,” Froese said. The debate on the proposed bylaw revisions ended with a council vote to have

staff review the issue and report back, but it resumed, briefly, a few minutes later. When Fox called for action to quell an reported outbreak of property thefts from cars in a local park, citing complaints from residents, Richter objected, saying what Fox was trying to do was no different than her attempts to get action.

Two alternate school programs combined M O N I Q U E TA M M I N G A Tim e s Re po r t e r

Langley Board of Education called a special meeting for Wednesday at 4:30 p.m. The topic of this special meeting is ‘budget savings.’ It isn’t known what will be discussed, but one cost saving idea for next year is already in the works. Parents of students at Apex School and James Anderson Learning Centre were called to a meeting on Monday night to discuss merging the two programs.

MILNER

JALC, at 20381 66 Ave., is moving and being folded into the Apex school on Fraser Highway, in the former Otter school. Apex is a personalized program for atrisk youth. The school district sent a letter home to parents on May 5, announcing there will be a parent meeting on Monday May 12 at both Apex and JALC to answer questions about the consolidation. In the letter home to parents, it said that the district has identified the James Anderson site as a good location for a new elementary school.

VILLAGE

Costly repairs and upgrades are needed at the aging school. The combination of the two programs will bring together 260 students. There will be financial savings to the district as well, because they no longer will operate two sites, said Gord Stewart, assistant superintendent. The change is effective for the 2014/2015 school year. Consolidation of programs is one of the cost savings the district mentioned at its last board meeting. Next year, the district is facing a $3 million deficit.

Question langeytimes.com

While incidents of drinking and driving are on the decline, thanks in part to the much tougher provincial rules about blood alcohol limits, the Tuesday, May 6 crash in Aldergrove illustrates that some people simply don’t care. A 32-year-old Abbotsford man, who has yet to be charged in connection with the crash, was seen by witnesses exiting his smashed vehicle, grabbing a case of beer, and heading to a nearby fast food restaurant — despite broken bones in his leg. The man had apparently been driving at a high rate of speed. Witnesses report him passing on the right at a high rate of speed as he was getting off the freeway at 264 Street. Shortly afterwards, he smashed into a minivan driven by a woman and carrying five small children. Thankfully, no one in the van was seriously injured. Langley RCMP are now reporting that the man has no valid driver’s licence, and the car he was driving was not insured. The case is sounding more and more like another one in Aldergrove, which ended in tragedy. Carly Regan, a 13-year-old girl, was struck and killed by Paul Wettlaufer, a drunk driver who also did not have a licence. He did not come forward, but hid his vehicle. It was eventually found, he was arrested, and eventually jailed. While such cases are thankfully rare, there are some people who have serious drinking problems and should never be driving. Often, they have lost their licences, but continue to drive. All the laws in the world won’t stop them. All that the rest of us can do is be vigilant, report to police anything that looks like a problem situation, and drive as cautiously as we can.

Train tribulations they

Summertime and the living is lovely, especially if you can go to the beach. Keep your fingers crossed that we don’t have a train derailment, while you are out there basking in the sun with your loved ones. Whether you come from Cloverdale, Langley, Surrey or any other locale, and whether you are going to Crescent Beach or to White Rock, you are all welcome there — because it is your beach to enjoy. But wouldn’t it be great if we could all enjoy this most wonderful part of Boundary Bay without thinking about those eight significant crude oil train accidents that happened in Canada and the U.S. this past year. Of course, the worst was Lac Mégantic with 47 lives lost. Could it happen here? I hope not. With U.S. freight trains, piloted by U.S. staff, carrying U.S. oil, coal and deadly Canadian chlorine gas around Boundary Bay, need you wonder? They travel over a rail bridge, on First Nation land, that is in shocking disrepair, alongside the beaches where 19 people over the years have lost their lives being struck by a train, on a track that is 100 feet below an unstable mud bluff. The rail line is inaccessible to first responders from land or sea, has no spillage containment, and trains travel across a 100-year-old swing bridge. Worst of all, they travel this dangerous route through one of the most densely-populated municipalities in B.C., and one that provides rare access to spectacular public beaches south of the Fraser. If you want a more positive outlook on this area’s potential, check out www.southfraserpark.ca and maybe even jump on the bandwagon — any bandwagon — and make the Semiahmoo Peninsula a safe, wonderful recreational location for one and all to enjoy, ‘sans’ trains. If you care, you could write to Lisa Raitt, federal minister of transportation, or other politicians in your area. It would be nice to see a picture of her looking over our pristine beaches making an announcement that three levels of government have got together to assure that this area which has “the absolute highest environmental rating” will be protected forever for the use of all future Canadians and other visitors. This could become the “South Fraser Seawall,” and you could have a part in making it happen. — Susan Potzold, letter to Peace Arch News

Not that far away Editor: I wish to respond to the letter “Langley kids should come first,” (The Times, May 13). While I agree that Langley kids should come first, the wait list referred to is for a choice program school. I think it important to point out that the bus to D.W. Poppy from Fort Langley is an 11-minute ride, not the 40 minutes indicated in the letter. Having had my children at Poppy for the last five years, the timeline has never been an issue. All students on a Langley School District bus pay a fee. D.W. Poppy is Fort Langley’s catchment area school. JACKIE COOK, LANGLEY

Garden is special Editor: The Spirit of the Horse Memorial Garden, at the official entrance to Campbell Valley Park, is now widely-recognized as one of the most special memorials in the world to our equine friends. The names of over 300 horses and their owners are inscribed on bronze plaques, resting on a handsome four-foot brick wall. In the central area, there is a stone carving of a rearing horse, which is surrounded with many different flowers according to the season, along with flowers and shrubs in beds throughout the three-quarter acre property. They are surrounded by a well-maintained lawn. I want to thank the 14 members from the Vintage Riders Association who came on May 1 to tidy the surrounding garden of winter weed growth, to rake the soil and to plant many colourful flowers for the summer months. Pacific Parkland staff, who maintain the lawns so well, provided a wheelbarrow and sweeping equipment. Two hours later, the beautiful garden was resplendent for the memories of horse owners. The time spent by the Vintage Riders on this work is so much appreciated. Plaques for the Spirit of the Horse garden can be purchased through Roger Bean, at the Metro Vancouver Parks office on 16 Avenue and 200 Street. The phone number is 604-530-4983. JOY RICHARDSON, WHITE ROCK Editor’s note — Joy Richardson is the founder of the Spirit of the Horse Memorial Garden.

New box is better Editor: I want to personally thank Langley Township Councillor Steve Ferguson for arranging with Canada Post for a new community mailbox, which was installed in my Willoughby neighbourhood in late April. Prior to the installation of the new box, there were multiple break-ins into the old box in March and April. BERNIE GRINSTEAD, LANGLEY

The B.C. Farm Machinery Museum in Fort Langley is one of many Langley Township organizations to receive funds through grants from the Township. Letter writer M. Wickman has no problem with reports detailing how grant money is spent.

No problem with transparency Editor: I was very concerned when I read (The Times, May 8) that Langley Township council voted “no” to transparency of how our taxpayers dollars are being spent, when grants are awarded. Also calling financial transparency “mean and vindictive” does not seem relevant at all to the topic. Why shouldn’t non-profit organizations have to submit a report to apprise taxpayers how their grant money was spent? Sounds like good business practice to me, and I am sure any reputable business school would agree. I am weary of hearing, after the fact, of public and non-public officials and organizations who abuse taxpayers’ money. Is the Portland Hotel Society scandal not still fresh on everyone’s mind? Is senatorial misuse of taxpayers’ dollars such a long

time ago, that some council members cannot remember? Whether it is a small business or a large municipality, surely it is critical to success that one knows where the money is spent. Councillors should reconsider how they expect accountability for taxpayers money. Not everyone is honest. Best practice and transparency are a must, when it comes to spending taxpayers dollars. Thank you to Councillor Charlie Fox, who championed this degree of transparency with our tax dollars. Township grants affect my tax dollars — do not give up being the advocate for me and the others that care. M. WICKMAN, LANGLEY

Scooter mishap had a happy ending Editor: On Sunday, April 6, my wife and I were walking our small dog on the trail behind the Langley Seniors’ Centre. I was on my scooter when coming to the only large hill on the trail, thinking I could make the hill. The scooter could not make it up. About halfway up, it stalled and both it and I fell to the ground. I hurt my left side of my chest, and it was still sore some

time later. I was very lucky, as two ladies passing by spent time with me and helped me to my feet. Thank God they came along and hurried to help me. You two ladies are my heroes. Thank you very much. The hill has been reported to the City, and I asked if it could possibly lower the hill,as it is dangerous. TOM TONKS, LANGLEY CITY

Acres of colourful crinoline whirled and nimble feet stepped gracefully across the floor at Langley Secondary School May 2 and 3, during the 65th annual Pacific Northwest Teen Square Dance Festival. Spectators crowded the LSS bleachers as more than 100 dancers from seven clubs in B.C., Washington and Oregon competed at the festival, ranging in age from six to 21. It was Langley’s third time hosting the event, and the Lower Mainland was represented by two local youth clubs, the Wesburn Wranglers and the Delta Sundancers. “There is a lot of history here,” says Lynnette Edlund, who helped organize the festival alongside husband and fellow Brookswood Senior Citizens Club square dancing caller Steve Edlund. “It’s actually unique to square dancing,” she says, explaining that aside from the Pacific Northwest competition, square dance is purely a recreational sport. Individual events at the festival included junior, pre-teen novice, novice and senior categories in square dancing and round dancing, which includes familiar dances like the foxtrot, waltz and jive. Another crowd favourite was the calling competition, where

Tigist Asrate, a nine year veteran with the Delta Sundancers youth square dance club, performs in her home-sewn costume at Saturday’s (May 3) Pacific Northwest Teen Square Dance Festival, held at Langley Secondary School. The costumes, made by parents, are kept top secret by each of the seven clubs in the competition until the day of the festival. young square dance callers sing a rendition of their choice of music and include square dance move directions. Think Adele’s “Rolling in the Deep” meets “allemande left”, “ slip the clutch” or “ladies in, men sashay”. “This is not your P.E. square dancing,” says Edlund, referring to the

often-dreaded physical education classic. That style of traditional square dance, commonly known as “old time”, for the most part involves memorizing a step pattern and following the lead of the dancers in front of you. The modern square dancing on display

at the festival relies much more on an individual and team’s ability to dance to unfamiliar music, says Edlund, following call combinations they have never heard. It also uses a wider selection of musical styles. In the teen festival’s mystery tape competition, for example, teams followed a challenging combination of dance directions on a recording they have never heard before. The dancers are judged not only on how well they follow the calls, but also on how well they adapt and recover when a slip-up inevitably happens. “It is really another language,” says Edlund, highlighting the impact the sport has on tuning and individual’s listening skills, ability to focus as a team and physical fitness. She notes that youth square dancing is also a highly social activity, that is relatively inexpensive compared to other forms of dance. According to Edlund, the six-decade history of the festival has helped keep the sport alive and flourishing in the local area. “It’s given us a lot of leaders,” she says. “It gives the dancers the opportunity to take charge.” Learn more about the Pacific Northwest Teen Square Dance Festival online at pntsdf.org.

The NDP’s holy war against changes to the Agricultural Land Reserve got nastier last week, as it became clear it was defenders of the status quo who were being mowed down. Ever since legislation was tabled to divide the ALR into two zones, with greater emphasis on social and economic needs to help viability of farms in the Kootenay, Interior and North regions, almost all the protest has been from unaffected areas. And much of it depends on emotion rather than fact. In the legislature, Nanaimo MLA Leonard Krog rose to praise the late Dave Stupich, who birthed the ALR sacred cow as agriculture minister in 1973. Krog likened Stupich to the Biblical Daniel for his bravery in preserving farmland for our children’s children. Cowichan Valley MLA Bill Routley did his signature “jiggery pokery” routine, this time accusing cabinet minister Bill Bennett of being “giddy” at the prospect of paying off his friends with development land. Before he gets too jiggery outside the protection of the legislative chamber, he would be well advised to find some evidence. Stikine MLA Doug Donaldson, who at least represents an area being given broader latitude for secondary uses on farmland, warned of drought in California. The history of this is currently a

who had stepped outside for a cigarette reported hearing several shots coming from the alley, just before midnight on June 12, 2000. It wasn’t until October 2013, after the Surrey RCMP Unsolved Homicide Unit reopened the case, that police arrested and charged Langlet. Langlet had no possibility of parole for 25 years. Correctional Service Canada said he was

found unresponsive in his cell on Friday, May 9. While staff members performed CPR immediately and emergency services were called, Langlet could not be resuscitated. As in all cases involving the death of an inmate, the police and the coroner have been notified, and CSC will review the circumstances of the incident. His next of kin have been notified.

Surrey RCMP’s Missing Persons Unit is re-appealing for public assistance on a man who vanished more than a year ago. Vaclav (Walter) Simek was reported missing on April 10, 2013. He was last seen on March 7, 2013 when it’s believed that he was dropped off in the area of 200 Street and 40 Avenue in Langley. The police investigation has revealed that Simek rented a car between Feb. 23 and March 7, 2013 and used it to move belongings from his residence to an unknown location. The rental car was returned on March 7. Since then there has been no banking activity or cellphone use, said Surrey RCMP. There is no evidence of foul play, nor is there any evidence to sug-

$25,000 raised at Langley MS Walk ABOUT 160 PEOPLE TOOK PART IN APRIL 27 EVENT

About 160 people took part in the Scotiabank MS Walk in Langley City on Sunday, April 27. The local event, part of several such walks across B.C., raised about $25,000. One feature of the event was a “Wall of Hope,” where participants were invited to leave inspiring messages. ALY S S A O‘DELL L an gley Tim es

On Sunday, April 27, residents of Langley brought attention to Multiple Sclerosis (MS) by participating in the 2014 Scotiabank MS Walk. In B.C., more than 6,000 people united in an effort to raise over $1.3 million in pledges and bring awareness to the fact that 100,000 Canadians live with MS. This year, approximately 160 Langley participants and their teams raised more than $25,000 in donations for critical MS research and support programs. Guests were invited to share their uplifting thoughts about MS on the “Wall of Hope,” a new event feature which delivered inspiring messages to those impacted by the disease. Speaking at the event was MS Ambassador Chris Hunger, a Langley resident and captain of Team Hunger, who shared his

empowering experience about his diagnosis. Following his address, walkers enjoyed live entertainment from She Says Electric and participated in an interactive warm-up led by Body Buster Fitness. City of Langley acting mayor Ted Schaffer also spoke to the MS community in Langley and officially kicked off the event. Beginning and ending in Douglas Park, walkers chose to walk, run, or wheel a 1.5 km, 3 km, or 6 km route. At the finish line, participants were invited to take part in a photo booth, 50/50 prize draw, and a kids tent colouring contest. Unique among spring fundraisers, MS Walks throughout Canada allow individuals impacted by MS the opportunity to participate by including wheel-

Multiple sclerosis is a chronic, often disabling disease of the brain and spinal cord. It is the most common neurological disease of young adults in Canada. It impacts 100,000 individuals nationally. Most people with MS are diagnosed between the ages of 15 and 40, and the unpredictable effects of MS last for the rest of their lives. The MS Society provides services to people with MS and their families and funds research to find the cause and cure for this disease.

Tree Clear-Cutting Prohibited in Brookswood/Fernridge

Temporary Road Closure: 16 Avenue and 248 Street

On April 29, 2014, Township of Langley Council adopted a new, temporary bylaw to regulate, prohibit, and impose requirements on tree clear-cutting in Brookswood/Fernridge.

Under the new bylaw, no one (including land owners) can remove more than 8 trees or 20 per cent of the trees on a parcel of land, whichever is less, until the bylaw is repealed.

A temporary road closure of 16 Avenue from 240 Street to 256 Street, and 248 Street from 8 Avenue to 24 Avenue, will be in effect from 7am on Sunday, May 25 to 12am on Monday, May 26.

The bylaw only affects properties in the geographic area outlined in the Brookswood/Fernridge Community Plan (see map) and does not apply to land within the Agricultural Land Reserve or land being used as a farm operation. Trees can still be removed if they are blocking sightlines under the Township’s highway and traffic bylaw or if they are in an area approved by provincial regulation for a septic field or water well. Trees may be removed if necessary for the construction of a building, if approved by a development permit, development variance permit, or building permit issued by the Township of Langley. Trees can also be removed if they are hazardous, as certified by an arborist, or in case of an emergency, if certification is received by the Township Engineer within 30 days of the cutting. The prohibition is being taken very seriously and those who are convicted of violating the bylaw by damaging or removing protected trees face a fine of not less than $500 and not more than $10,000 per tree. Specific details and the entire Interim Tree Clear-Cutting Bylaw 2014 No. 5071 can be viewed on the Township’s website at tol.ca, under About the Township/Bylaws/All bylaws.

Township plans to charge for property tax refund NO FEE IF OWNER LETS CREDIT CARRY OVER TO NEXT YEAR D AN F ERGUSO N Ti me s Re po r t e r

Anyone who has overpaid their Township of Langley property taxes and wants an immediate refund will have to pay a $25 fee in future. The change will generate about $7,000 in revenue as a cost recovery measure approved along with several other

changes Monday, May 5, when council gave approved a new fees and charges bylaw. The bylaw increases most Township fees for things like pool passes and hall rentals by three per cent, with some exceptions. A report on the included proposal to charge a refund fee on property tax refunds says about

a third of the refunds go to mortgage companies and financial institutions, while the rest go to individual homeowners. There were 281 refunds issued by the Township of Langley in 2013. Property owners can avoid the charge if they let the credit sit on their account so it is applied to the next year’s property tax bill. Langley City charges a $15 fee for property tax refunds in certain situations, while the City of Surrey levies a $25 charge.

The Township, along with Provincial and Federal agencies, have classified the open channel water systems into three categories:

Northwest Langley: April 4 – May 30

Class A ditches are fish bearing; Class B ditches are fish habitat. Both of these categories require formal approval before any work can be completed.

Murrayville: April 25 – May 30

Class C ditches are deemed to have no fish or fish habitat issues whatsoever and require notification only for work to take place. Therefore, how or when a ditch is cleaned will depend on its classification. We thank you for your understanding as we operate under these requirements. Engineering Division 604.532.7300

A charming country lifestyle at Village Green By Kerry Vital

Relaxation and a neighbourly feel are the words of the day at Village Green, a quiet enclave in Maple Ridge that’s been appealing to buyers of all demographics. “It’s like a little English village,” says sales manager Jeanie Fox. “It’s a really nice community.” The two-level townhomes are built in a West Coast Architecture style, and are surrounded by plenty of green

space. Each home has a fenced yard, making them perfect for families and those looking to have a bit of green space of their own. “It’s a beautiful setting,” says Fox. “You can cook dinner in your kitchen while watching your kids play in the yard right outside.” Inside, the spacious three-bedroom floorplans, ranging from 1,246 to 1,382 square feet, include laminate hardwood flooring, nine-foot ceilings on the main floor and quartz countertops

NEW HOME DEVELOPMENT

and stainless-steel appliances in the kitchen. The master ensuite bathroom is spa-inspired, with a full frameless glass shower and oversized shower head. “These are very good finishings,” Fox says. “You also get a great value for your money. It’s just incredible.” Phase one is currently selling, and the second phase will be released soon. When complete, the nine-acre site will hold 105 townhomes. Homeowners have already started moving in, with more to come in the fall. “We wanted to offer homes that felt like a single-family residence, at townhome affordability, and in fact the majority of our buyers have claimed this as one of their top reasons for purchasing there,” says Fox. Homes at Village Green start at $302,900. For more information, visit www.villagegreenlife.ca, call 604-476-2292 or visit the presentation centre at 12161 237th Street, Maple Ridge, open 12 to 5 p.m. every day except Fridays.

Camden at The Falls, the first release of single-family homes built around The Falls golf course in Chilliwack, will have beautiful views from every home, including the rolling greens of the golf course, right, and over the surrounding area, below.

Dream homes at Camden at The Falls By Kerry Vital

Aquilini Development is bringing their master-planned community building expertise to Chilliwack with The Falls, an envisioned community of over 500 homes, set to be built around The Falls Golf Club. Camden, their first release of just 47 singlefamily homes, offers a little piece of paradise for as low as $389,900. “You walk out your door and you’re on the golf course, with rolling greens and panoramic views,” says Macartney Greenfield, project manager for Rennie Marketing Systems. “There aren’t a lot of projects that

can offer that resort-style living.” The response has been overwhelming, Greenfield says. Floorplans range from 1,336 to 3,176 square feet, and each comes with a large double-car garage with tons of room for storage. The master-on-main floorplans have been particularly popular, Greenfield says. There is also a rancher floorplan available. Buyers will have a vast array of choices when it comes to customizing their new home, including six different home types and elevation styles, eight exterior colour schemes and two interior colour schemes. There are also several interior and exterior upgrade options available. The location is one of the biggest draws for Camden at The Falls. “People are amazed by how beautiful it is here,” Greenfield says. “It’s nestled into the side of the mountain with breathtaking views in every direction.” To take advantage of the views, the homes have spacious covered decks and oversized

windows. Nine-foot ceilings in the main living areas add to the airy feeling. Laminate wood flooring is included throughout the main living areas, with porcelain tile in the bathrooms and low-pile carpeting in the bedrooms. A gas fireplace in the living room is perfect for cozying up to in the colder weather, and a rough-in for a wet bar is included in some homes, making entertaining easy. The kitchen is gourmet and refined, with stainless-steel appliances, shaker-style wood stained or flat-panel cabinetry and laminate countertops. A convenient kitchen island creates extra space, with pendant lighting above illuminating your tasks. A full-height walk-in pantry with built-in shelving is another convenient feature that demonstrates Aquilini’s commitment to their homeowners. The master ensuite features a tempered glass shower enclosure and separate tub, with double sinks for plenty of his-and-hers space. Every home comes with a two-year

membership to The Falls Golf Club, with additional discounts for the pro shop, restaurant and ongoing green fees. It truly is a golfer’s dream come true! The Aquilini name has held a lot of weight for buyers at Camden at The Falls. “Aquilini has strong local roots and is very committed to this community,” says Greenfield. “You have the confidence factor of buying from a builder known for large developments and master-planned communities.” Homeowners won’t have to venture very far from their home to find anything they need. “This is a very central community,” says Greenfield. “There’s a great school at the bottom of the hill, and you’re less than 10 minutes from Chilliwack.” Trails, lakes and other outdoor recreation opportunities are also plentiful here. For more information, visit www. livethefalls.com, call 604-794-5722 or stop by the presentation centre at 8361 Nixon Road, Chilliwack, open 12 to 5 p.m. daily except Tuesdays, or by appointment.

Money, food donations help fill the Cupboard Over the past year, food banks across the Lower Mainland, Fraser Valley and Kitimat have received nearly $98,000 and more than 11,600 pounds of food thanks to the efforts of Envision Financial employees, members and community partners. It’s all thanks to Envision Financial’s The Full Cupboard program, launched one year ago to raise food, funds and awareness for local food banks. Through this innovative community program Envision Financial has committed to raising $1 million for local food banks over the next 10 years. “I am so proud of the meaningful difference The Full Cupboard is starting to make in our communities,” said Envision Financial President Shelley Besse. “I have been so encouraged by the support we have received from our staff and our members and the enthusiasm with which they’ve joined us in tackling the issue of hunger.” “Envision Financial’s Full Cupboard program is a shining example of how community partners come together to support their neighbours,” said Marilyn Herrmann, president of Food Banks BC.

Brian Mann (right to left), Ed Les and Joe Cassetta cook up hamburgers and hot dogs on Saturday at the Willoughby M&M Meat Shops for the location’s participation in M&M’s annual charity BBQ Day. The Canadawide initiative benefits Crohn’s and Colitis Canada. The Walnut Grove M&M location also held a barbecue to raise funds. Since its inception in 1989, more than $23 million has been raised by the Charity BBQ Day. ALY S S A O ’ D E L L L a n g l ey Ti m e s

Supportive Start looking for donations Do your drawers runneth over with unworn bras? Forever Yours Lingerie wants your bra donations to help them kick off their new charitable initiative, Supportive Start. Developed to help fill a need for women who face barriers in accessing properly fit bras, Supportive Start by Forever Yours Lingerie facilitates the donation of quality bras, panties, and toiletries to women in need across the Lower Mainland, through no-charge bra fit clinics. Over the years, Forever Yours Lingerie owner Sonya Perkins noticed the need for undergarment donations for women. “We receive requests

through the store from local agencies expressing a need for clean, like-new bras,” says Perkins. “Through our Supportive Start initiative, we will be better able to direct resources to those that need it.” With donation of new or gently used bras, the team at Forever Yours Lingerie will host bra fit-clinics in partnership with various charitable partners from across the Lower Mainland. “We are always inspired by our customers who tell us how much better they feel when wearing a bra that fits,” remarked Perkins. “Through this initiative we hope to share this confidence with in-need women who may not have access

— for whatever reason — to properly fitting bras and panties.” How it works: Through Supportive Start, Forever Yours Lingerie will collect donations of new and gently used bras of all sizes, and provide them to women-inneed through free fit clinics. If you do not have a bra available to donate, Forever Yours Lingerie will accept cash donations in-store and online to fund the purchase of new bras, panties, and toiletries, as needed. Donations will be accepted through the store’s Langley location at 20460 Fraser Hwy., seven days a week. To mark the launch of Supportive Start, Forever Yours Lingerie is hosting the in-

Langley’s Beaton, Dar win Prospera Education Awards Hannah Beaton has been awarded the Ron Sweeney Rising Star Award from Prospera Credit Union’s Educational Awards Program. The award is given to an exceptional high school student who is pursuing post-secondary education. The Grade 12 Langley Fundamental student — who plans to study either sports psychology or nursing at Trinity Western University — created a program, Step in Someone Else’s Shoes, which gathers used shoes and

redistributes them to inner city youth in need. She also traveled to Nicaragua earlier this year to help build a school. Beaton was also the recipient of the Township of Langley’s Pete Swensson Outstanding Community Youth Award last month. Langley’s Moriyah Dar was also a winner of Prospera’s Quasar Award, which is given to a student already attending a post-secondary school. Altogether, the program pre-

The money — $6,378 from the shopping centre’s Easter Bunny photo event and $2,766 from donations collected at their Earth Week event in partnership with Kin’s Farm Market — will go towards improving the health of Canadians. ••• Langley’s Days Inn & Suites has received an award of recognition from Realstar Hospitality. The awards are presented annually and pay tribute to leading Days Inn hotels and staff.

Lawrie put Huskies softball ‘on the map’

GARY AH U J A Ti me s Spo r t s

After helping put the University of Washington softball program on the map, Danielle Lawrie’s name will forever be etched in the Huskies’ history books. “The tougher things got, the better Danielle played,” said Huskies coach Heather Tarr, who recruited Lawrie to Washington. “She brought softball to the mainstream in the city of Seattle. “Danielle played the game with grit and with strategy and she always played the game with respect and never took anything for granted.” It was a rainy day in Seattle on May 3, but that did little to dampen the spirits of Lawrie, who was back on the UW campus with her family to have her No. 15 jersey retired at the Husky Softball Stadium. Lawrie, 27, was joined at the ceremony by her parents, Russ and Cheryl, her husband Drew Locke, and their four-month-old daughter, Madison. “I didn’t think (having my jersey retired) would happen as quick as it did, so I was a little surprised,” Lawrie said last week from San Francisco, where she was dong some commentary work for the Pac-12 Network. She became the first ever member of the Huskies softball team to have their jersey number retired. “Washington really did a good job of making it all about my family,” Lawrie said. “They made it really, really special.” Lawrie said she started tearing up and getting emotional near the end of the ceremony. “It was just a bunch of emotions, and with everyone there and just how much softball has given me and where it has taken me,” she described about the ceremony. The fact this honour was bestowed upon Lawrie shouldn’t be a surprise given the career and accomplishments she has already achieved, especially on the baseball diamond with a ball in her hands. She starred for the White Rock Renegades program and was a mainstay with the Canadian national team program, as well as earning a scholarship to the University of Washington after she graduated from Brookswood Secondary in 2005. At Brookswood, she helped the Bobcats win back-to-back provincial basketball championships. With the Huskies, Lawrie was one of the most dominant pitchers in the women’s college game. She helped the program win the Women’s College World Series in 2009 and was named the NCAA player of the year both that year and the following year. She graduated in 2010 and left the Hus-

Langley’s Danielle Lawrie, with her daughter Madison and husband Drew Locke, became the first member of the University of Washington Huskies softball program to ever have their jersey number retired. It happened at a rainy ceremony in Seattle on May 3. The 27-year-old Lawrie —who graduated from Brookswood Secondary in 2005 — still plays professionally in the National Pro Fastpitch League. kies program with her name etched all over the record books. Lawrie finished her four-year collegiate career with a 136-42 record, 1,845 strikeouts in 1,097 innings and a 1.20 earned run average. She took 2008 off from school to focus on the national team program and represented Canada at the Beijing Olympics that year. But while a jersey retirement is usually reserved for those long done their playing days, Lawrie is still going in the game. She leaves on Saturday (May 17) for Orlando for training camp with the USSSA Pride. The squad — which plays out of Kissimmee, Fla. — is part of the National Pro Fastpitch League. The four-team league plays a 48-game season that goes from late May to

playing,” Lawrie said. “I think when I am officially finished and am out a couple of years it will really hit me. “Our team accomplished a lot and I am lucky and fortunate that I got that (jersey retiring) to happen.” And in addition to her pro career and the demands of motherhood, Lawrie has inked a two-year extension with Baden Sports Inc. to continue developing and promoting Axe fastpitch softball bats, balls and headbands Axe is her own signature line. She originally signed with Baden in 2010. “It has been a good ride with them, but I think it is just only getting better,” she said. “They are getting me a lot more involved on all levels, not just with the bat. “Everything Baden does is about improving the quality of the game for the player.”

And while most mothers spend a full year on maternity leave, Lawrie will be back playing this season. Her mom and daughter will accompany Lawrie on road trips, while her husband remains in Boston, the family’s home base. “I just had to drop everything and stop playing,” she said. “So I wanted to make sure when I do end, I end when I say I want to stop.” She added that the jersey retirement will likely mean more to her once her playing days are done. “I think I will look back on it a couple of years and go ‘wow’ (but) it is still so fresh of being in college and I am still currently

Junior Blaze still perfect at 12-0 FOUR MORE VICTORIES PUSH WINNING STREAK TO A DOZEN GAMES Four more victories have the Langley Junior Blaze still perfect at 12-0. The U16 baseball team was lights-out against the Vancouver Junior Cannons, winning 5-0 and 8-0 on Saturday. And on Sunday, they beat the North Shore Junior Twins 8-2 before edging them 5-4 in game two. All four were played at McLeod Athletic Park. Jake Polancic got the ball rolling with a complete game shut-out in the opener, scattering four hits over seven innings while striking out five. Jaron Jeske drove in two runs while Bryce Bydeweg had an RBI double. Aiden Mordecai got the shutout in game two, going six strong innings with just four hits and two walks. He struck out three. Markus Gregson drove in a pair of runs and also had two doubles. Bydeweg, Quintin Nakamura, Cole Cantelon and Nate Kolb had an RBI apiece. The Blaze offence used a five-run second inning to

The Fort Langley Canoe Club’s (FLCC) Kirsten Cheung sets off from the start line at her two kilometre paddler’s classic race Saturday (May 10) at the FLCC’s 15th annual regatta.

For the first time since opening day, the Langley Blaze were on the shortend of a score. The U18 baseball team won their first three games of the weekend before falling 3-0 on Sunday afternoon to see their 17-game winning streak come to an end. The Blaze, who lead the B.C. Premier Baseball League with a record of 172, were in Victoria over the weekend, sweeping the Victoria Mariners on Saturday 4-0 and 1-0 before splitting with the Victoria Eagles 8-4 and 3-0 on Sunday. The weekend began with another gem from Kyle Ross, who has yet to allow a run this season in 26 innings pitched. Ross improved to 4-0 with a two-hit shutout, striking out 11 along the way. Mitchell Robinson and Brendan Halstrom both had RBI doubles and Connor Chorpita had the other RBI. Kyle McComb also had a double as three of Langley’s five hits went for extra-bases. Saturday’s second game saw Luke

Horanski drive in the game’s only run in the top of the first inning. That was enough offence for Cooper Misic who was two outs away from a complete game. Misic surrendered seven hits and one walk and struck out two, but no runs as he improved to 4-0. Jonathan Keltie came on to nail down the final two outs with they tying run on third base. Against the Eagles, Langley had to rally from an early 4-0 hole as Victoria scored four times in the bottom of the first inning. But Kurtis Horne settled down from that point and allowed no more runs the rest of the way. Brendan Halstrom fueled the offence with two doubles and four RBIs. The second game saw the Mariners take advantage of multiple walks to score all three runs in a 3-0 victory while the Blaze bats mustered just one hit themselves. Kristjan Storrie was tagged with the loss while Ryan Braun allowed just one hit in five innings of relief.

Volunteers needed for B.C. Seniors Games in September With close to 4,000 athletes expected to attend the B.C. Seniors Games this September in Langley, the call is going out for volunteers to give a helping hand. And the Games’ organizing committee is confident the community will come through. “We are in need of between

1,500 and 1,800 volunteers,” said Milt Kruger, the president of the B.C. Senior Games. “Opportunities exist for helping with any of the 25 sports in addition to the support areas.” The games run Sept. 9 to 13. There is an urgent need for volunteer sport chairs for table ten-

nis, whist, cribbage and carpet bowling. These volunteers will be responsible for co-ordinating the schedule of competition and overseeing the venue for the week of the competition. “Local athletes and teams are a great source for officials, helping setting up for competitions

New look for Thunder

New jerseys, new players, but same expectations. Those are the feelings of the coaching staff of the Langley Thunder as the senior A lacrosse team gets set to embark on the 2014 Western Lacrosse Association season this weekend. Langley opens on the road on Saturday (May 17) when they visit the Coquitlam Adanacs. The Thunder won the 2013 WLA regular season title with a record of 11-5-2 before losing in the league finals. And the two seasons prior to that, Langley captured the WLA championship and represented the west in the Mann Cup. Gone are some of the team’s top players — including Langley’s Garrett Billings, who tore his ACL during the National Lacrosse League season last month, but had already said he was taking the summer off — as well as Dane Dobbie, a mid-season trade acquisition in 2013 who led the Thunder with 29 goals and 62 points between Coquitlam and Langley. Dobbie also led the NLL in goals this past season. Several other players have opted to play in Ontario this summer, while some are not playing at all, and a few are undecided. That doesn’t change the Thunder’s mindset. “We are going to be competitive,” Jensen promised. “We are not just going to cash in the year because these guys went in different directions. “I am optimistic, but you have to realize we lost a lot of players, a lot of quality players,” he added.

“A lot of young guys are going to get into the line-up and it is going to be a different look. “We are going to be more athletic and have to really work hard for everything as opposed to having a little extra skill that can make things easier.” Defensively, the team should be strong. Manning the pipes will be Brodie MacDonald, the winner of the WLA’s Leo Nicholson Trophy as the top goaltender. The six-foot-seven, 255-pounder was 8-3-2 with a 7.51 goals against average and a .821 save percentage. Both numbers led the league. Entering his fourth pro season, MacDonald is 21-10-4 with an 8.19 GAA and an .817 save percentage. The defence will be anchored by Brett Mydske, who has won the WLA top defender award two years in a row. One confirmed returnee on offence is Athan Iannucci who

was second on the Thunder with 27 goals and 56 points in 18 games. A couple of other players expected to contribute are Alex Turner (17 goals, 38 points) and Joel McCready. Jensen called McCready “a fireplug” who missed the bulk of last season. Captain Matt Leveque is also back for his eighth straight season. “We are going to try to pick up the pace and

the tempo of the game and keep the other team off balance,” Jensen said. Earning one of the four post-season berths remains the goal. “I am sure every team hopes to make the playoffs (but) it will be a scratch to the finish line just to make the playoffs,” he said. “Burnaby has a real good line-up and have been knocking on the door. I would say they probably have the strongest team on paper.” The Thunder have their home opener on May 28 at the Langley Events Centre agasint Maple Ridge.

The Langley Junior Thunder broke into the win column for the first time this season with an 8-6 victory over the Delta Islanders on Saturday (May 10) night. Unfortunately, the Thunder could not build on that success, losing 13-4 the next day to the Victoria Junior Shamrocks. The weekend results leave Langley with a 1-5 mark in the B.C. Junior A Lacrosse League. On the road at Delta’s Sungod Arena, the Thunder erased an early 2-0 deficit to score eight of the final 12 goals. James Rahe (three goals, three assists) and Brett Dobray (three goals) led the way offensively. Tyler Rutherford (one goal, three assists) and Alex Gibbs (one goal, two assists) had the other goals and William Vanden Hooven chipped in with three assists.

Canada calls for TWU’s Del Bianco Trinity Western men’s volleyball left side Nick Del Bianco was named to Canada’s senior B team, marking his first foray onto the national scene at the senior level. Del Bianco, who will enter his fifth-year at TWU this fall, is coming off a 2013-14 campaign in which he averaged a teamhigh 4.19 points per set and was named both a Canada West first team all-star and a CIS second

team all-Canadian. This was the second year in a row he earned both conference and national accolades, as he was also a Canada West First Team All-Star and CIS First Team All-Canadian in 2012-13. After carving out an impressive beach volleyball career in his earlier days, which included a pair of national championships and both youth and junior world championship appear-

ances, Del Bianco has recently focused more on the indoor game, starting last summer. Playing with Team BC, he earned a bronze medal at the 2013 Canada Summer Games. He was also the team’s flag bearer for the opening ceremonies. Former Spartan Steven Marshall who was named to Canada’s World League roster earlier this week, was also named to the national B team.

Flipping between the Normal, Eco and Sport modes and tapping the gear-changing paddles on the steering wheel made for an enjoyable drive. Little lean in the corners and sprightly up hill. Both engines are coupled to an 8-speed automatic transmission with a SHIFTRONIC manual mode. The base price is $43,000, $48,000 gets you the Luxury version, and $53,000 loads up the tech features. If you want the V8, get ready to spend $62,000. keith.morgan@drivewaybc.ca

QUESTION OF THE WEEK!

Safety Tip: If you’re taking a road trip this May long weekend, be realistic about travel times as highways will be busier. Plan rest stops every 1.5 to 2 hours to avoid becoming fatigued while driving and check drive.ca for road and weather conditions before setting out.

Luxury and hi-tech systems abound in the 4x4s that show up in the local media test fleets. When I stepped out of one of the more loaded examples the other I got to thinking about yesteryear. Some might refer to them as the good old days – judge for yourself. I remember – not that long ago – four wheeling in a truck when the standard transmission shifter was so loose, you didn’t know you were in gear or neutral. Anti-lock brakes were when you lost your master cylinder to a stick, while (independently minded) power steering kicked in when you hit the corner of a rock so hard it ripped the steering wheel out of your hand and if you weren’t careful your thumb as well. Traction control came in the shape of new tires. Automatic four-wheeldrive was achieved by asking your passenger to step out and lock the front hubs. The parking brake was a log shoved under by Ian Harwood the rear tire. Soft suspension meant your shocks were blown. Off-road suspension meant you spent more time hitting the roof with your head and back than you actually spent on the seat, which if you were lucky had some remaining padding still in it. Your seat belts would tighten up on every bump and if you didn’t stop you would be suffocated. You would be lucky if your radio would bring in a few channels on the AM band only! And the CB radio might just reach the driver in front of you. Wheel articulation really indicated your leaf spring was broken in half. Air conditioning was driving with your windows down and trying to breath in between dust clouds. GPS was your buddy screaming out, “I think it’s this road”. Most people used to sleep in the back of their trucks. However, I remember one time after a long day of four-wheeling pulling into an open area by a river where I found a nice sandy mound. With the aid of my flash light I quickly spread the sand out with my arms making a flat area in which to put my tent. It was about 5:30 am when I first noticed the red ants crawling all around my sleeping bag. I was tired so killing the one at a time was not a big deal until I saw many climbing the side of the tent. I quickly climbed out of my tent to discover the soft sandy mound I found was actually a giant anthill. The vehicles of today have the capabilities of descending steep hills without even putting your foot on the brake and you could disconnect your sway bar end links to allow for more articulation. Ability to stop on a hill without rolling back is nice. Comfortable seats are really an improvement, especially on long trips. Although we can’t relive the past, it’s important to remember technology is there to help us. There is no replacement for common sense, so don’t let your truck drive you, drive it and be safe. If you have any fun and not-so-fun truck tales to share, please drop me a line. ian.harwood@drivewaybc.ca
