Thief strikes Special Olympian’s dreams Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

Keirra Stoneham, set for the national stage.
Keirra Stoneham isn’t fazed when it comes to being the centre of attention. It’s no surprise, given how often the Special Olympian has brought in bowling trophies to show her friends and support circle at Semiahmoo House Society. “She’s very, very proud of her trophies,” said Tiffanny Thomson, a support worker
at Semiahmoo House, which provides programs and support for adults with developmental disabilities. “Everybody supports her.” But as the 26-year-old looks forward to competing in 10-pin bowling for Team B.C. at next month’s Special Olympics Canada 2014 Summer Games (July 8-12) – she qualified by earning gold at last year’s provincials – her game took a hit: someone stole her
customized gear. Leslie Stoneham said the theft of her daughter’s bowling balls, tote bag and shoes hasn’t sunk in yet for Keirra – but she’s sure it soon will. “I think it’s going to hit her when we pack up the gear (for the Games),” said Leslie. “She’s going to say, ‘it’s not mine’.” Keirra has been bowling for about 12 years. i see page 4

Linda Hepner sits in a sofa chair in the living room of her comfortable South Surrey home and tells Black Press in an interview what many have suspected for some time. She would announce publicly this week that she’s Surrey First’s choice as a mayor heading into this November’s civic election. The only other contender for the job within the ranks of Surrey First was Coun. Bruce Hayne, who stepped aside and said he was backing Hepner. Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts – who formed Surrey First in 2007 as a coalition of independents – announced in April that she would not seek re-election this fall. Hepner sat down with Black Press on June 2, with the provision the paper not go public with the news until she was ready. Dressed in a black pantsuit, she cups her mug of coffee, and wears an easy smile. She says she’s ready for the battle for the mayor’s chair. (Coun.

Describing herself as an “experienced senior,” the Fredericton-born woman arrived in Surrey in 1985, when she promptly started work with the city. Beginning as executive
assistant to city manager Mike Jones, Hepner rose through the ranks and became manager of economic development, film and special events. In 2005, she took a leave of absence to run for city council and won a seat, which she’s kept. She says as mayor, she would bring “experience, steadfastness,

Two people are facing multiple charges – and police are searching for a third – following an earlymorning assault and robbery in Rosemary Heights Sunday. Cpl. Bert Paquet said police were alerted to the “targeted and isolated” crime just before 3 a.m. June 22, when a resident in the area of 36 Avenue and 152 Street reported seeing three people leaving a residence with their arms full of items. “They took a cab, they fled from the cab – all three – in the area of King George Boulevard and Colebrook Road,” Paquet said. A police dog team sniffed out two of three suspects, one of whom was found in a ditch. The third suspect was not located. Paquet said police identified a victim – who had been assaulted, threatened with a knife, tied up, left in his closet and robbed – after the 36-year-old man asked a neighbour for help. According to the police report, the incident occurred after a woman who was invited over by the victim showed up with two men. i see page 4

in the past two elections because Watts headed the ticket. There is little in the way of organized opposition (yet) and citizen satisfaction with local government is reasonably strong. However, Coun. Barinder Rasode, who was with Surrey First, has also said she will run for mayor. She has also been one of the more effective members of council, and certainly has a high profile. Her connections with the South Asian community are a big factor in her favour, as many South Asians take part in municipal politics and vote. Rasode may put together a team to challenge Surrey First. Whether that will happen isn’t clear yet. She will be talking a lot about crime in her campaign, and it’s the issue that many Surrey residents are uneasy about. Last year’s record 25 murders were a blight on generally improving crime statistics. The Dec. 31 death of Julie Paskall, following a Dec. 29 attack outside the Newton Arena was particularly shocking and, even though a suspect has been arrested, crime is still a hot topic. Three murders and a public shooting in a busy neighbourhood in the middle of the afternoon, all of which occurred last week, don’t make people feel any better. A Hepner-Rasode contest, with several other candidates thrown into the mix, will certainly be an interesting one. The outcome is vitally important for the future of the city.

‘Proven leadership’ takes Johnston to Eastern Conference
Familiar face takes charge of Penguins Nick Greenizan Staff Reporter
The new coach of the National Hockey League’s Pittsburgh Penguins may be a familiar face to those on the Semiahmoo Peninsula. On Wednesday morning, the Penguins announced that Mike Johnston – a former Vancouver Canucks assistant coach and offseason White Rock resident – would take over behind the bench. The 57-year-old, who lived here full time while working for the Canucks from 1999 until 2006, has been the head coach and
general manager of the Western Hockey League’s Portland Winterhawks since 2008. He also has experience as a coach with the Canadian national team, the Los Angeles Kings and, closer to home, has been involved with Hockey Canada’s skills-academy programs in South Surrey high schools. “Mike comes to Pittsburgh with great experience at all levels of hockey,” said Penguins general manager Jim Rutherford in a news release. “He has terrific knowledge of the game and proven leadership ability. His coaching style is going to be a good (fit) for the players we
have here with the Penguins – it’s an release from the Winterhawks at up-tempo style, but it begins from the time, the infractions for which deep in the defensive zone.

City council agrees to make up amount not funded by BIA
Funding rift rocks White Rock trolley Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter
Tourism White Rock has been dealt another financial blow, with a decision by the city’s business improvement association to axe its support for a return of the free summer trolley. The move is a $20,000 hit that some officials say was unexpected. It follows a similar-sized cut to base funding for the tourism group that was made by the BIA last fall. “I was really shocked,” Coun. Al Campbell said Monday of the recent decision, after the issue was raised by Coun. Helen Fathers. But BIA president Lynne Sinclair said the news should not have come as a surprise. “We made it clear this year all along that we expected them to solicit funding from the city and funding from corporate sponsorships as well because we didn’t want to pay a disproportionate amount,” Sinclair told Peace Arch News Tuesday. “We communicated the decision of the board with the factors contained in it a couple of weeks ago.” Fathers told council she heard of the funding shortfall over the weekend and asked prior to the meeting to add the issue to the agenda.
Council members criticized the BIA’s move, then voted unanimously to fill the gap from a reserve fund. Campbell – council’s liaison to the tourism group – told PAN that Tourism White Rock needs $38,000-$40,000 to run the trolley for the summer, with weekend service to begin in July. He said officials believed a handshake earlier this year had ensured the continued partnership. “We came to an agreement and we left the room,” he said. “We thought it came across pretty clearly that they liked the (trolley) idea.” However, nothing was put in writing, according to TWR executive director Betina Albornoz. “The BIA had expressed interest in supporting the trolley at a joint meeting,” Albornoz told PAN, explaining details were to be worked out. Sinclair disagreed. “We said we were interested in pursuing the trolley, but there was a number of things that had to be worked out first,” she said. “That’s all that was ever said. We made it really clear that there were a number of things that bothered us about last time.” Sinclair – a former White Rock councillor – cited a lack of promised advertising for BIA
members inside the trolley and minimal credit for BIA support as among deciding factors. “Most people didn’t know the BIA was even funding it,” she said of the pilot run. Sinclair said a requested analysis of the trolley’s inaugural season was not done; the BIA received complaints that the trolley took too long to do its loop; and passengers took up parking at Central Plaza, impacting businesses. Albornoz said by email Tuesday only that “we are focusing on the task at hand and simply thrilled that this project is happening. “Our stance with the BIA, and all of our community partners, has always been one of open camaraderie and mutual communication. We respect any decisions that these community partners deem they feel necessary to make.” Last fall, when the first cut was confirmed, BIA officials said it was about fiscal responsibility. Wednesday, Sinclair said fiscal responsibility continues to factor, announcing that the BIA board voted the evening before to contribute up to $6,000 to the trolley initiative. “We’re happy to make up the ($6,000) shortfall. Very pleased to be able to contribute a much more appropriate amount for us.”
A Nelson-based artist has been chosen to create a historical bronze sculpture for White Rock’s waterfront. Council on Monday supported commissioning Denis Kleine to create the piece, which is to be installed on the plaza located south of the White Rock Museum. Dubbed ‘Passenger’, the sculpture is to be a man waiting at the White Rock Train Station, leaning with one hand on a bench with a packed suitcase at his side. “It really lends itself for people to be photographed right in front of the museum sign,” the city’s director of leisure services, Eric Stepura, told council. Kleine was chosen by the city’s public art selection panel. Denis Kleine sketch Stepura ‘Passenger.’ said Kleine’s proposed design stood out “due to the public’s ability to interact with the sculpture and to animate the plaza.” It may receive minor modifications, he noted, citing the possible addition of a pocket watch and the words ‘City of White Rock.’ “Our panel is looking at adding additions to this preliminary sketch,” Stepura said. Coun. Helen Fathers said she is “so happy that the (sculpture) looks like Alex Browne from the Peace Arch News.” “Not a bad model,” quipped Mayor Wayne Baldwin of the longtime reporter. Funds for the project were approved last month – $80,000, to come from the city’s community public-art capital-project budget. Baldwin noted that fund, which is boosted by $50,000 every year, is built largely from developers’ contributions. The sculpture is to be in place within six months. – Tracy Holmes

Bowler stoked to represent Surrey i from page 1 This year, for her birthday and Christmas, her parents bought her all brand-new equipment; from black, patent-leather bowling shoes adorned with flames, to two balls – one orange, one purple – with custom-drilled finger holes. Leslie said she can’t fathom why anyone would have taken it from their White Rock carport, where the gear was stowed out of sight. “Why would you steal bowl-
ing gear?” Leslie said. “It’s pretty pathetic.” She figures the culprit struck sometime Monday or Tuesday. They also took a motion light, she said. Brianna Hopaluk, co-ordinator of Semiahmoo House’s day program, described the theft as “horrible.” Keirra talks about her bowling “all the time,” Hopaluk said. “It’s important to her to be part of a team,” she said.
Celebrate Canada!
With Keirra “extremely stoked” for the Games – she is one of two bowlers who will represent Surrey – Leslie said she is reaching out in the hopes whoever took the gear will see fit to return it. “This is huge for a Special Olympian,” she said. “We need it back for her to participate at her best.” Anyone with information on the gear or who took it may contact the White Rock RCMP detachment at 778-593-3600.
Two suspects charged, one sought i from page 1 “We have reason to believe that she was invited by him, although she was a stranger to him,” Paquet said. Dixie Lee White, 28, is charged with robbery and theft over $5,000; she was due back in Sur-
rey Provincial Court Wednesday (June 25). Kyle Clayton Rooyakkers, 30, is charged with robbery, theft over $5,000, assault causing bodily harm, assault with a weapon and forcible confinement; he is due back in court on June 30. Both White and Rooyak-
kers remain in custody. A warrant has been issued for 32-year-old Shaun Anthony Tottenham. He faces charges of robbery, theft over $5,000, assault causing bodily harm, assault with a weapon and forcible confinement.

MONTANA - RUGGED CAMPING CHAIR
More candidates named by ruling group
Blue, Red or Black
Surrey First adds three Kevin Diakiw Black Press
Surrey First is telegraphing a public-safety agenda by naming both a firefighter and a Mountie to its contestants for city council this fall. Mike Starchuk, Dave Woods and Vera LeFranc will be running with the coalition this fall. Starchuk, a Surrey firefighter, was just recognized with an Honorary Membership to the B.C. Professional Firefighters’ Association, for his “selfless work on behalf of his fellow firefighters throughout the province.” Woods is the former district commander for Cloverdale, whom former officer in charge of Surrey RCMP, Fraser MacRae, called “a quintessential district

commander, a quintessential chief of police for Cloverdale.” The civic coalition has also selected LeFranc, who was in charge of women’s programs for the Newton Advocacy Group Society for eight years before becoming manager of community projects for Vancity. LeFranc also manages the city
of Surrey’s Homelessness and Housing fund. “I’m thrilled to be able to offer up these three candidates as wonderful change,” said mayoral candidate and current city Coun. Vera LeFranc Linda Hepner. “They’re new candidates, they’re all strong, they all love Surrey and they’re all team players.” As to Hepner’s expectations with the new additions, she said, “I’m hoping for another sweep. We have shown government works best with a diversified team that works together and gets things done.”
Hepner lays out her vision for city i from page 1 But there’s more that can be done, Hepner says, noting she wants to focus on economic development and continue working to establish one job per Surrey resident. She wants to turn King George Boulevard, between 80 and 64 avenues, into a “Creative Corridor,” inviting all types of performing arts, design businesses and fine-arts shops. “That’s my vision, and that’s what I would be pushing to do.” She also believes Campbell Heights, a large business district near 192 Street and 24 Avenue, is undersold. She wants to see more agri-food industry there, as well as aerospace firms. Hepner, the city’s economic development manager when Campbell Heights came to fruition, describes it as the best land to build this side of Burlington, Ont. Crime reduction is also a key challenge that Hepner wants to address, but she says it’s “myopic and simplistic” to just throw more police at the problem.

Innovative solutions include getting more civilians to do the desk work, so gun-carrying police can be out on the road. She wants to relocate the Newton ice arena. Where else, she asks, do you see an ice rink in the centre of the community? In its place, she wants to work with the private sector to get a mixture of commercial and residential at the Newton site. She says a hotel and convention centre should be located at the Cloverdale Fairgrounds. And Hepner wants to increase the pressure on TransLink for more effective public transit. Hepner notes TransLink has been operating under flawed data when determining population density to justify levels of service. TransLink has been determining Surrey’s density by factoring in the 33 per cent that’s Agricultural Land Reserve. As it’s set aside for important food harvest, Hepner says it shouldn’t be included. With the ALR excluded from the formula, Surrey has the same
population density as Burnaby, Hepner says, noting she informed the transportation authority of that two years ago, and things are changing because of it. Hepner says there are also fun things the city could be doing. With an effort to get more people to the waterfront on the Fraser River, Hepner wants to see a ferris wheel on the beach by the Pattullo Bridge. “Why can’t I have a ferris wheel there?” Hepner asks. “Why can’t I have something that brings kids to the waterfront?” Overall, she says she’s extremely pleased with the economic environment that’s been created over the last decade. “A whole lot of that success is attached to the governance structure that we’ve created,” Hepner says. “I’m tremendously proud of that. I don’t think that’s happened anywhere else in the country.” Knowing Rasode has begun garnering support, Hepner says the civic campaign has already started. Election day is Nov. 15.

DID YOU KNOW: Iron deficiency is the leading nutrient deficiency worldwide, and the #1 cause of fatigue in females who menstruate. Fatigue, rapid heartbeat, cold hands and feet, brittle hair and nails, shortness of breath, dizziness, pale skin, leg cramps, insomnia: it can be difficult to pinpoint the cause of these non-specific symptoms, so make sure iron deficiency is not one of the suspects. Did you know it takes roughly 3 months for all of your iron-deficient blood cells to die off and be replaced by new ones? It is usually not enough to take an iron supplement for just a few weeks, but nobody wants to suffer the side effects of traditional iron pills for longer than that. Try Floradix Formula, a natural, vegetarian, plant-based source of iron from Salus. Even if you haven’t tipped into true “iron deficiency”, it’s a great way to supplement your iron stores and ensure that low iron is not holding you back from getting in shape for the summer. summ su mmer er.

More to fear than fear itself
W
hen shots ring out through residential neighbourhoods and flak-jacketed police officers with assault rifles are down on the corner, it can be of little comfort to hear that we – the generally law-abiding public – are not at risk. Yet this is the message we receive all too often, when violent, targeted crime hits closer to home. This was the message in Sunnyside last Friday, when police received a call for assistance from a residence, only to find a homicide scene when they arrived. While neighbours were assured there was no threat to public safety, the presence of a police dog sniffing an everexpanding cordoned off area and the arrival of members of the Emergency Response Team, guns at the ready, indicated otherwise. True, most of us are not involved in a lifestyle that brings us into frequent contact with the police, or makes us a potential target for shootings or other violent acts. And true, the police often have more information on crime victims and potential suspects than they’re ready – or legally able – to share. But that’s not exactly reassuring once violence invades our own, usually quiet streets. We don’t need another Surrey Six tragedy to tell us that the violence engendered by criminal activity is conducted with anything but surgical precision. Innocent people can, and do, get caught in the crossfire of revenge exacted, warnings sent – even police standoffs. Wars are never without ‘collateral damage,’ and if we permit war – whether between criminal factions, or between criminals and the police – to be waged in our streets, we are all potential victims. While the ability to deploy highly-armed, armour-wearing officers may indeed be necessary under certain circumstances, it should never be considered a ‘fix’ for the basic problem. However jaded we get, we cannot permit this to become the norm. As professional and effective as the officers may be in performing their duties, their presence must be considered a last resort. The point is that having a suburb transformed into a war zone must be the exception, not the rule. These are not conditions we should be expected to tolerate as a fact of modern life. If they are, then we, as taxpayers, are not receiving the protections supposedly guaranteed under Canadian law – and something must have gone drastically wrong with our thinking about law enforcement.

hips and knees needed replacing. Where have all the Freedom 55 people gone? I’ll tell you where they are. They’re on stress leave! Retirement at 55? It’s become a cruel joke. First the tech stock bubble burst in the early 2000s. For those of us who were smugly still standing after that retirement fund disaster, along came circa 2008. Blue chip stocks? Hah! Gotcha anyway, smart guy! For a good portion of the 55-plus crowd, holding onto the concept of Retirement 65 is like believing one’s sixpack is coming back. Maybe that’s another reason us 55-plussers are supposed to hang around together – or at least the guys. We can wear our polo shirts outside our pants, and no one questions it or makes snarky comments about muffin tops. Personally, I find all this concentration on being 55-plus rather disconcerting, if not downright anxiety-inducing. I’d rather not dwell on it or be regularly reminded by selective association. In fact, I’ve not really thought much about being beyond the age of 55 since that actually happened, which was a perfectly good point to go into denial. If you start thinking too much about 55, then suddenly one day you’ll wake up and find that you are. And you’ll start paying attention to all the marketing promotions, and then you’ll actually start acting like you’re 55 ... or plus. My advice? Don’t act your age. Go find your spandex bicycle shorts. Andrew Holota is the editor of The Abbotsford News.

Overflow ER a health issue An open letter to Peace Arch Hospital. I am a regular patient at Peace Arch Hospital outpatient medical daycare. I suffer from PIDD (hypogammaglobulinemia) and severe AFS (allergic fungal sinus disease), amongst other health problems. I get my IVIG every two weeks since April 2010 at PAH; before that, it was at Delta Hospital. Before the complaint, the reason for my letter, I want to let you know that all nurses at the daycare are amazing and have my utmost respect. I am very aware that this issue is not due to the nurses working there; it is a management and/or administration problem, e.g. Fraser Health. During the years of my treatments at the PAH daycare, the emergency overflow has ended up on our side of treatment/care many times, too often for comfort. I am sure you know exactly what this means to us patients suffering from immune-deficiency disorders and/ or any patient that is immunecompromised from different diseases; it puts us at great risk. Last year, a patient was in the bed beside our chairs that had acute pneumonia. I do not know what her strain of bacteria was, but I do know my friend beside me got sick shortly after with pneumonia and she was hospitalized twice since and has now died last month in Peace Arch Hospital. She suffered from alpha-1 and told me on May 14 that she has been suffering from pseudomonas ever since she got sick last year with pneumonia. I was diagnosed with pseudomonas aeruginosa on May 10, which I grow in my sinuses. Of course, I can’t be certain where my friend got her pseudomonas/ pneumonia, but I think it ought to be looked at. We the patients with immune-compromised diseases should be separated from any emergency patients that bring in lots of people visiting, which could carry any disease we could react to. Way too many visitors do not read the sign: “Please wash your hands and/or wear a mask if you don’t feel well, have a cough or a cold.” I urge you please look into this matter. Maggie Bernet, White Rock
Steps in the wrong direction Editor: Are we going forward in reverse? I was talking to a bylaw officer yesterday regarding the changes in the City of White Rock since I moved here in ’81. We had an underpass to access the beach where the new washrooms are in West Beach, and a pay-peruse dumpster at the works yard for extra garbage, or unusual garbage. We used to have a once per year pick-up-anything-garbage service, sandcastle competitions and a community. We currently have limited garbage
pickup, my dishwasher is filled with recycling so the rats don’t come, I drive my cardboard to Surrey in my car, and boy, are we green! Now, the reason the officer was on my street is because a treetrimming company started a chainsaw, which I can only assume started a speed-dialing frenzy, so we have reverted to a tattle-tale, whistle-blowing, pooch-yourneighbour community. Nice to see progress in action. Greg Mason, White Rock
Educational experience Editor: The staff at Jessie Lee Elementary thanks our community for their
support during our strike action. The waves, horn honks, encouraging comments and donations of snacks truly warm our hearts and keep us motivated. We welcome the public to drop by the picket lines and ask us to tell you our stories and ask us questions about our concerns regarding the public education system. Monica Grant and fellow staff of Jessie Lee Elementary, Surrey
Keepsake had a good home Editor: On Saturday, June 21, a couple driving past my house on Cliff Avenue saw the Persian carpet in my driveway, turned around, put the
carpet in their car, and drove off. Perhaps they thought it was “free to a good home.” Unfortunately, they were wrong. I had just had the carpet professionally cleaned and we had laid it out on top of recycle bins, etc, to air out and fully dry in the sunshine before putting it back in our living room. The carpet has sentimental value, having been left to me by my father. I would really like it back. If the couple who made this mistake would like to return it, I would be grateful. In the meantime, a warning to others – in months when garage sales abound and people are springcleaning, don’t leave property close to the end of your driveway, lest it be mistaken as free to the general public! Jane Goundrey, White Rock

Some proponents of relocating White Rock’s train tracks inland are using safety as a pretext, suggest letter writers.
Conflict over rail-line opposition Editor: There is a constituency in South Surrey/White Rock that for years has been using the danger to pedestrians from trains along the White Rock waterfront as an argument to get the tracks removed. Well, at the risk of sounding trite, I have to say the chickens have come home to roost. The BNSF has been blamed for numerous deaths over the years, and since the cost of removal would be very, very expensive, the company decided to install fences. There is now little or no risk to pedestrians. The abovementioned constituency should be happy now. Right? Don Crowe, Surrey Q I went to the White Rock anti-fence rally Friday. The meeting was hijacked by people protesting other things. I want access to the beach; I don’t want train horns at 4:17 a.m. I don’t care that there are hazardous chemicals in tanker cars. That’s the fault of the pipeline protesters. One more coal train a day is not going to have any impact on my life. And I don’t care that it is adding to climate change in China. I’m a denier. Moving the trains to somewhere else is a non-starter. If you didn’t like trains, why did you move here? How do we stop fences from going up along the rail line, and how can we get access to the beach? You cannot legislate the stupidity out of people. Do you really think painting a big sign on the road is needed to prevent people from stopping on the tracks? Who in his right mind stops on the tracks anyway? Here’s my solution. Put gates with flashing lights at every crossing. Costly to put up, peanuts to maintain. When there are no trains, give people five seconds to cross the tracks. If they loiter on the tracks, fine
them big time. Put signs everywhere that you have five seconds to cross the tracks, then it’s a $10,000 fine. If you cross the tracks with earbuds in your ears, $10,000 fine. Taking pictures on the tracks, $10,000 fine. Give citizens a commission for tattling on one another. It will give many retirees in White Rock a second income. John Bootsma, White Rock Q So, let me get this straight… First, city council decides to close off the tunnels to the beach so they can put in pay parking and get more revenue; then, they ignore the correspondence from Transport Canada about putting in proper pedestrian crossings so we can all safely access the beach; then, the mayor gets enraged over an issue that he was well aware of, basically saying that he didn’t want to pay for this. It is not a matter of moving the trains inland; it is a matter of doing what is a present safety issue. It was White Rock’s council who put up the gates, who ignored the real issue. And it is they who must answer to this – not Transport Canada, as White Rock politicians are trying to blame. The signs I saw posted by the city seem to border on the libelous – which is probably why they rushed to change them. White Rock councils seem to have a history of blaming others for their lax attitudes. Take, for instance, the closing of beaches in the 1990s due to sewage contamination. This was not caused by doggie-doo or seagull droppings or even Blaine, Wash., as council claimed, but the actual failed sewage system of White Rock. This went on for years, until they finally fixed it. How dare people jeopardize our safety while playing a political game. Jo-Ann Leskun, Langley

Child-porn investigation leads to more than 150 arrests
Surrey man facing charges Wanda Chow Black Press
A 35-year-old Surrey man is among those charged in a nationwide child pornography investigation. Across Canada, more than 150 people were arrested or are under investigation as part of Operation Snapshot III, which began in February and involved more than 40 police agencies, said a national RCMP press release. Five children were rescued in the operation which targeted child sex offenders who collect, possess, share, make available, distribute and produce child sexual exploitation material online. It involved 167 investigations across Canada leading to the seizure of thousands of computers and hard drives with nearly two million images or videos. Of those investigations, 29 were in British Columbia, of which 22 were in communities policed by RCMP, said E Division spokesman Sgt. Rob Vermeulen. Two of the children rescued were in B.C. and those investigated include 11 B.C. men facing a total of 32 charges, Vermeulen said. The Surrey man arrested has been charged with one count of luring. A 23-year-old Burnaby man faces two counts of possession of
child pornography. Other B.C. suspects include: • A 29-year-old Duncan man, charged with possession and accessing child porn; • A 29-year-old Kelowna man charged with luring and making child porn; • A 43-year-old Nanaimo man charged with possession and making available child porn, sexual interference, invitation to sexual touching, sexual exploitation and sexual assault; • A 31-year-old Revelstoke man charged with possession and accessing child porn, producing a controlled substance, invitation to sexual touching, sexual exploitation and sexual assault; • A 45-year-old Sidney man charged with possession and making available child porn; • A 64-year-old man, also of Sidney, charged with possession, accessing and making available child porn; • Two Vernon men, aged 46 and 49, each charged with possession, accessing and making available child porn; • A 65-year-old Williams Lake man, charged with possession and distribution of child pornography. Vermeulen said the suspects’ names are not yet being released because a number of

…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula
South Surrey club supporting orphanage renovations and education initiatives
Rotarians providing aid to Cambodia Sarah Massah
T
Staff Reporter
wo members of the Rotary Club of South Surrey were able to see firsthand the benefits of their organization’s fundraising after visiting an orphanage in Cambodia. Longtime Rotarians Stuart Wilson and Brian O’Ruairc visited the country in midMarch following their club’s initial donation of $2,500 for upgrades to an orphanage in Battambang, which they were first made aware of when a member of the Rotary Club of Bangkok South – also a White Rock resident – told them about it. Stuart Wilson “I have been in the Rotary club for 20 years and an international project like this was always something I wanted to be involved with,” Wilson told Peace Arch News Friday. “So when he started talking to us about this project, Brian O’Ruairc I thought, ‘here’s the perfect opportunity.’” Using their own funds, the two Semiahmoo Peninsula residents travelled first to Bangkok, then drove six hours to get to the Cambodian city. “The cultural differences were incredible,” Wilson said. “So many people have nothing. The towns we visited before we arrived at the orphanage, it was pretty basic.” Once they arrived, Wilson and O’Ruairc met with members of the rotary clubs of Bangkok South, Amsterdam Minerva and the FLOAT Foundation. The various groups have all provided support for the orphanage, Wilson said. The South Surrey rotary’s focus initially was to upgrade the three buildings that housed the children by adding separation walls and helping with heat mitigation, including electrical wiring to support new fans. “We raised money to upgrade dorms and sleeping accommodations,” Wilson said, noting the three buildings are similar to large auditoriums, with one housing the girls, one housing the boys and one for studying and teaching. “The kids are there

the OK to release funds. Another area needing attention is the kitchen, comprising two large woks on a dirt floor, open to the elements, with little counter space. “Now, (the orphanage) wants to rework the kitchen, so that’s something (the rotary) can think about. They know what they need and we’ve seen it, so we’re on the same page,” Wilson said. “At the end of the day, we’re going over there and we have an ❝We lean on the organization community to support that can help us. This is the kind and kids that of thing we're need some doing locally and help. We’re the internatioanlly.❞ interpreters of what we see and can help decide what should be done in respect to the money.” With the information gathered by the two men, the rotary focused their annual Fool’s Night Out fundraiser in April on providing further support for the Cambodia project, including the new kitchen, a new bathroom, new computers, lessons for the children, school uniforms, bicycles and painting of the buildings, as well as aid for those who will be exiting the school system. “These kids are 16 and 17, and they’re done school, but they have no postsecondary or vocational skills,” Wilson said. “So we’re on that page also trying to find out how to support some of these kids through schooling.” Most importantly, Wilson noted, is that none of the efforts in Cambodia – or for any one of their various projects locally – would be or will be possible without the support the Rotary club receives from the community. “We lean on the community to support us. This is the kind of thing we’re doing, internationally and locally. When it’s local, that’s easy to demonstrate, but to say this is what we’re doing in Cambodia… This is what we are and what we’re going to do,” Wilson said. For more information about the Rotary Club of South Surrey or to donate, visit www.clubrunner.ca/Portal/Home. aspx?cid=261 All funds raised by the club go directly to charitable projects. None are used towards administrative costs.

Andrea Lanouette has been awarded first place in the annual Aboriginal Arts and Stories contest.
Lord Tweedsmuir Secondary student’s story selected
Teen wins writing award Evan Seal Black Press
Lord Tweedsmuir Secondary Grade 11 student Andrea Lanouette has been awarded first place in the annual Aboriginal Arts and Stories writing contest entitled “Our Story” organized by Historica Canada. Her story, titled “Tears,” is written through the eyes of a young boy and how his close friend, a young aboriginal girl named Caroline, is found murdered on Highway 16 – an 800-kilometre stretch of road between Prince George and Prince Rupert in northern B.C. It is referred to as the Highway of Tears due to the large number of women who have been killed or gone missing along the route. Lanouette, from the Haisla Nation, had seen the flyer for the contest in the aboriginal room at her school, but it wasn’t until her creative writing teacher encouraged her to give it a shot that she decided to enter. “My dad was the one that suggested writing a story about the tragedies that have occurred along the Highway of Tears,” she said, “I was born in Terrace so I had heard of the story but I really didn’t know much about it until I started doing some research.” For winning, Lanouette received $2,000 and was flown to Ottawa to receive her award. “It was pretty cool, a
really great experience,” she said Lanouette plans to use the money to continue her studies once she graduates and hopes to become a fiction editor and even write a book of her own. Since its inception
in 2005, nearly 2,000 emerging aboriginal writers and artists have participated in the contest. Historica Canada has a mandate to build active and informed citizens through greater knowledge and
appreciation of the history, heritage and stories of Canada. The contest is open to Canadians of aboriginal ancestry (status, non-status, Inuit and Metis) between the ages of 11 and 29.

uestion: My father was quite ill and because I had quit my job to look after him the last several years of his life, he decided to change his will to give me a larger proportion of his estate. He spoke to a lawyer and he prepared a draft and sent it out to my father who looked it over and approved it by making a check mark on the pages then sent it back to the lawyer. Then he had a massive stroke, was unable to speak or sign anything for several months, then died. I think that I am stuck with his earlier will that gave quite a bit to a son who had died and left children who themselves have ignored my father their whole life. Am I right?

City of Surrey staff along with several community members kicked off the annual 2014 Rakhi project with a “freeze mob” at city hall last week, with participants holding purple umbrellas and carrying signs reading “love and respect” and “take a stand.” The Rakhi project is a crime
reduction strategy initiative designed to raise awareness about domestic abuse and violence against women. Rakhi is an occasion in India which honours the relationship between brothers and sisters, with a sister tying a bracelet on her brother’s arm as a symbol of love and respect between
them and to show they will stand together against domestic violence. The braided purple bracelets will be sold for $5 each until Aug. 10 at select Save-on-Foods locations, Fruiticana, Surrey RCMP, Kwantlen Polytechnic University bookstores, KEYS: Housing and Health solutions

A pair of Semiahmoo Secondary students have been selected to participate in the Shad Valley science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) program this summer. Selina Shivji, in Grade 10, and Rika Sugimoto, in Grade 11, were chosen from more than 1,200 applicants across Canada. They will spend four weeks pushing their intellectual, creative and leadership skills to the next level, exposed to topics not regularly featured in the high school curriculum. “Centred on STEM and innovation, Shad is where Canada’s top youth achievers are exposed to great ideas, inspired to look at things differently and challenged to reach for the highest levels of excellence,” Shad president Barry Bisson said in the statement. “Shad sparks personal growth and healthy self-confidence in Canada’s next generation of STEM leaders and changemakers – a group that needs special attention and support beyond regular high school classroom settings.”

Lehmann Grove celebrates couple instrumental in preserving Green Timbers forest
Surrey nature lovers honoured
Contributed photo
Wady Lehmann (above) and his wife, Betty, were honoured.
Green Timbers conservationists, Wady and Betty Lehmann, were honoured last week with the naming of “Lehmann Grove” at the Surrey Nature Centre. The Lehmanns’ daughter, Susan Lehmann, was present at the event to accept the honour on behalf of her parents, who are now deceased. In the late 1980s, Wady and Betty Lehmann were instrumental in the campaign to preserve Green Timbers Urban Forest and its ecological value to Surrey, and continued to work as stewards
of the forest for the next 30 years. Green Timbers Urban Forest, 183 hectares (452 acres) in size, also includes wetlands, a lake, fishing dock, grassland meadows and nature trails. “Wady and Betty Lehmann were true visionaries of our city. They had the foresight to see the jewel that is Green Timbers Urban Forest and their tireless work to conserve this green space is the lasting legacy they leave to the residents of Surrey,” said Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts.
“Thanks to their efforts, Green Timbers is an essential piece of our city’s green heritage; rich in beautiful parks, agriculture and natural areas.” Green Timbers Urban Forest provides wildlife habitat, contributes to cleaner air and water and reduced air and noise pollution, and provides natural beauty and recreational opportunities for Surrey residents and visitors.

Celebrating our Youth Under 20
Julia Bicknell
With her sights set high on studying aeronautics at Stanford University, Julia Bicknell is working hard at school, sports and volunteering. Along with excellent grades, she has worked with White Rock South Surrey Hospice Society, and has taken part in a 30 hour famine to raise money, soup kitchens, Christmas hamper drives and the Cinderella Project.
Sarah Formosa
After years of steady practice, Sarah Formosa is excited to be heading to San Francisco in September to attend Alonzo Kinds Lines Ballet Company’s pre-professional training program. The Earl Marriott Secondary student is a teacher assistant at Spiral Dance Co., where she acts as a mentor to young dancers.
These young people represent a small portion of the future of this community, and that future would appear to be in very good hands. While the range of interests may be broad, all of the young people profiled share a common desire to achieve their dreams.
K
nown for her superb leadership and organizational skills, Serena Bonneville recently faced her most difficult challenge yet. Last October, the Southridge School student council president was diagnosed with leukemia, a form of cancer that requires chemotherapy. “Serena almost immediately took this painful and devastating news and used it as an opportunity to inspire others. Within a few days of her diagnosis, her beautifully written, poignant blog, Breeding Optimism, went viral in the South Surrey community,” says Daryl Weaver, director of experiential education and assistant head of the Senior School at Southridge. As she fought the disease, Serena, who recently graduated from Grade 12, continued to lead public events and weekly assemblies as part of her role as student council president. Staying strong, she continues the maintenance therapy to this day. “The day after I was diagnosed I started a blog to help other people going through similar
situations,” says Serena. Being head girl of her high school, she was used to a nonstop schedule. “I felt almost obligated to get involved. Before, I would help raise money [for cancer research] but it’s different when you’re diagnosed with it. You have a different understanding.”
Serena is also an outstanding athlete, and anchors Southridge’s senior girls soccer team as a key defender.
Serena also made an extra effort to complete her required academic courses, resulting in an acceptance letter from UBC for this fall.
SERENA BONNEVILLE
“Another reason Serena stars in our community is her willingness to take risks and push herself…” says Weaver, adding examples of this include being

Due to her extensive extra-curricular involvement, last year she qualified for the Duke of Edinburgh’s bronze award.
Serena has also taken a leadership role in fundraisers for cancer research. After participating in Light
the Night, an event at Stanley Park that benefits leukemia and lymphoma research, she co-hosted a Relay for Life event in May with a student from St. George’s School in Vancouver who has also been recently diagnosed with cancer. In her speech to the participants, Serena thanked them for helping raise money for research into treatment protocols with less debilitating side effects. Not surprisingly, the relay topped its goal of $11,000 by raising $28,000 for the Canadian Cancer Society. “Someone made [chemotherapy treatment] easier for me by fundraising for research. I wanted to help with this, and make it easier on people in the future,” says Serena. Until she graduated recently, she acted as spokesperson at assemblies and public events for Southridge. “It’s a role she fills with aplomb, but impresses even more in connecting with all students on a personal level regardless of their age or social standing,” says Weaver.

All the way to Carnegie Hall P laying for audiences at famous venues, including New York’s Carnegie Hall and Vancouver’s Orpheum Theatre, is no small feat for any teen. But for 15-year-old violinist Julie Lin these achievements are just part of her accomplishments. The youngest member of the Surrey Youth Orchestra, she has won a long list of accolades, including a first prize scholarship from the Symphony Society, the highest mark in her violin grade in all of B.C. in 2010, and first place in the Junior Provincial Music Competition last year. Now in Grade 9, Julie attends White Rock Christian Academy, where she plays violin in the school’s jazz combo. During her busy schedule, Julie volunteers at seniors centres and helps take care of children at her church every Sunday. She recently brought music to Crescent Gardens Retirement Community in Surrey by playing several songs on her violin. “Sometimes (she brings) just her smiles and company, and sometimes music as well,” says Sam Rehman, director of advancement at White Rock Christian Academy. “Her passion is to bring hope to people. It would be great if there were more youth like her.” During a solo recital last May, Julie raised money for Deaf Ministry of China, an organization
Julie Lin that helps hearing impaired people, including creating videos and teaching aids. Also recently, she was awarded first place in the 2014 International Concerto Competition and another first place in the American Protégé International Competition, an accomplishment that sent her to perform at a recital in Carnegie Hall. With a scholarship in tow, Julie will be attending the worldrenowned Summer Music Festival at Boston University Tanglewood, as well as the Young Artists Program at the National Arts Centre in Ottawa. Closer to home, Julie came in third place in the Diamond of the
Rock youth talent contest in 2012. She competed against other young residents of the Peninsula at Blue Frog Studios, including rock singer-song writer Tommy Alto, who came in first, and singer Olivia Torrie, the second place winner. “Julie played at a gala this year and guests kept asking me where we hired her. They were shocked that Julie is a student,” says Rehman, adding that Julie always finds a way to manage being a straight-A student, her volunteer efforts and her passion for music. “Especially in Grade 9, the ability to balance a schedule like that is amazing. To me, her high level of achievement is very impressive.”

ick Collett’s passion for rugby will soon lead him to Glasgow, Scotland, where he will be representing Canada at the Commonwealth Games in the demonstration sport of U-19 rugby league competition. And this isn’t his first time to play internationally. Nick has also toured twice on his high school’s team, as well as closer to home on representative teams for the Fraser Valley and B.C. at levels U-14 to U-18. Playing for nearly 10 years, Nick, who is graduating from Grade 12 at Southridge School, began with Bayside Rugby Club, where the passion for sport was instilled by his father. He will be playing rugby for UBC this fall. “He dedicates a vast amount of time developing his rugby skill, his strength, and also honing his leadership capabilities,� says Paul Doig, senior boys’ rugby coach at Southridge School. “He is a coveted player by many university programs, as he is one of the top players in the country.� Competing internationally provides Nick with more opportunities to grow his natural abilities, Doig adds. “In my years as a rugby coach, I have seen few such individuals as Nick. He is the epitome of the gentleman athlete with a strong desire to challenge himself, all while bringing his teammates

ast Christmas, Southridge School’s Christmas hamper drive was stalled when two inner-city teen moms were inadvertently left off the list. Acting quickly, Cassia Armstrong stepped in despite being busy with several other activities she was juggling at the time. After personally shopping for the care packages, she dropped them off to both mothers before they realized anything was amiss. “This anecdote illustrates the kind of person Cassia Armstrong is,” says Daryl Weaver, director of experiential education and assistant head of the Senior School at Southridge. Of particular note in Cassia’s academics achievements is her participation in national mathematics contests and public speaking, both of which helped her gain acceptance to study environmental sciences at Trinity College in Connecticut. Cassia’s award-winning film documentaries earned her top media arts student in her grade. She has also won awards including top actress and best public service announcement at the BC Student Film Festival in 2013, as well as best film and cinematography at the recent Surrey International Film Festival. Beyond these accomplishments, Weaver says Cassia is known as a “compassionate soul deeply committed… to making a
Cassia Armstrong difference in the world.” Her list of volunteer endeavors include working with people with developmental disabilities at Semiahmoo House, helping to build a playground at an orphanage in Guatemala and spending spring break constructing a school in Kenya. “Southridge tries to get students to get volunteer as much as possible. We do 30 hours a year minimum,” says Cassia, who has also volunteered at a soup kitchen in Surrey. “We served lunch to people in bad situations economically, including homeless families,” she says. On one New Year’s Eve, Cassia had friends come over to make sandwiches that they delivered

to homeless people. Her friends brought bread and fillings, while she supplied all the condiments. “We delivered 212 sandwiches. It was nice to see the look on everyone’s face,” she says proudly. Cassia is also an internationally recruited softball player and is a member of several teams that have won provincial and national championships. “One of my first impressions of Cassia was early in the ninth grade when she missed my biology class to compete at an American kickboxing tournament,” says Weaver, adding his student already had a black belt in the fierce sport. Cassia will play on Trinity College’s softball team and continue to pursue filmography in her spare time.

Celebrating Our Youth Under 20 Team Orange introduces app P aige Glazier has taken a leading role in the fight against bullying by visiting elementary schools throughout Surrey to impart the important message of “loyalty, respect and inclusion.” By joining Team Orange, a movement created by Paige, the young students learn how to avoid becoming bullies and the negative affects of their actions. After being bullied in high school, Paige wanted to do something about the negative ways some youth treat each other. “I wanted to do something different than what other antibullying campaigns do,” says Paige. “Instead of saying people who are bullied are always victims, I want to take the approach of teaching kids to act in positive ways.” For younger students, she got Team Orange’s message across through skits that broke down the concept of “loyalty, respect and inclusion.” “The kids really get into it. I’ve had excellent feedback,” says the 18 year old. The Team Orange smartphone app (visit www.teamorangestrong. com) brings together professionals in medical and wellness fields to provide advice to youth who are having a tough time in life. “She wants to talk about what bullying means to young
Paige Glazier people to let them understand that words and actions can be miscommunicated and hurt other people, and how to recognize when they have done this in their life,” says Nancy Shewfelt, a family friend. Paige, who recently completed her first year studying psychology and criminology at Kwantlen Polytechnic University, is currently working on an educational book to go along with her website that will focus on the slogan – a play on words – “Orange you glad you’re not a bully?” “Paige Glazier is a leader without calling herself this… She does all this because she wants to make a positive influence in other young people’s lives and set the right
example,” says Shewfelt. Paige is also passionate about volunteering in other ways, including working with Nightshift Street Ministries in North Surrey and helping with various clothing drives. After returning from a missions trip to Guatemala, Paige’s future goal is to be a humanitarian and fundraise for a safe house in a Third World country. “All this speaks to me of a young person wanting to connect with other less fortunate ones, and make them feel special,” says Shewfelt. In her spare time, Paige enjoys sports, including softball, wakeboarding, snowboarding and golf.

Vision for a youth space T ayla Cops passionately advocates for the creation of safe, welcoming space for all youth in the South Surrey-White Rock community. Through her volunteer work with Alexandra Neighbourhood House’s South Surrey/White Rock youth collective, she has provided a voice for young people in the community. Tayla, who recently graduated from the South Surrey/White Rock Learning Centre, has advocated for the creation of a youth space by making presentations to the Rotary Club of South Surrey and at Surrey Steps Up Youth Showcase at Surrey city hall, where the youth collective created a miniature pop-up youth space and spoke to Mayor Dianne Watts about the needs of young people in the area. “Tayla is a wonderful example of leadership in our community,” says Jessie Kergan, youth and family worker at Alexandra Neighbourhood House. “She has a very bright future ahead of her and she will continue to shine in all that she does.” Tayla’s interest in creating a safe place for youth came about after she saw a number of friends go down a bad path in life, including drug addiction. “I’ve seen horrible things happen to people... even death,” she tells Peace Arch News. After Tayla bumped up her
Tayla Cops grades and began volunteering, she realized the community is in need of a certain kind of welcoming youth space. “I want to show kids that they can have fun without doing bad things; that they can do something with their lives.” she says. The Purple Thistle, a youth centre in East Vancouver, is an inspiration to Tayla’s vision. The centre has a resource room and holds workshops regularly. “Our space could be colourful... really anything they like,” she says. Tayla has many creative talents, but a passion for photography stands out. She takes photos of her volunteer work with the youth

collective and at her school. After she graduates, Tayla plans to continue her education in photography and pursue a career in youth work. In addition to her volunteer work with Alexandra Neighbourhood House, she also works with the City of White Rock’s Kent Street Seniors Activity Centre and at a community kitchen. She has also devoted many hours to looking after her niece and nephews. Tayla plans to begin training as a youth worker soon to help teens going through rough patches. “I want to give back to kids the way people have helped me,” she says.

Celebrating Our Youth Under 20 Young entrepreneurial spirit N ot content with a regular student summer job, young entrepreneur Alexandra Hunter took on her own paint franchise. Student Works Painting is the result of her knack for hard work and ability to take risks in life. “She walks in the pouring rain delivering flyers, she has doors slammed in her face, she replaces unreliable painters, but she still puts on a brave face. This is painful for a parent to watch, but I also know where this hardship will lead her to in the future,” says her father, Dave. Besides being a young entrepreneur, Alexandra also has a passion for volunteering, including helping out at the elementary school she attended. “I enjoy working with kids. I found when older kids were able to help me out, it motivated me. I want to give back that way,” says Alexandra, who particularly liked helping with the school’s carnival and tutoring young students in various courses. “I love seeing the smiles on their faces. It’s great to see kids more involved,” she says, looking back on her volunteer experiences. Perseverance has paid off in her academic life as well. Excellent grades in honours courses at Earl Marriott Secondary led to acceptance into UBC’s Sauder School of Business last year, where she received a first
There’s something new at
HAIR ART ACADEMY!
Now offering a Barber Program! Alexandra Hunter year orientation award for team leadership. Her new business will put the skills she learned in class to the test this summer. Alexandra’s academic achievements are matched by her athletic ability, both of which have earned her several scholarships. She was a member of her high school’s volleyball team, played club volleyball, took part in fastpitch on the Surrey Storm team and, as an umpire, volunteered at the BC Summer Games. As a short-term goal, she plans
to become more involved with The Arc Initiative at UBC, which fosters a relationship between the Sauder School of Business and communities in South Africa, Ethiopia, Columbia and Rwanda to corroboratively build internships, workshops and mentoring activities for young entrepreneurs in these countries. “Her goal is to one day take her business knowledge and passion and build not only better communities locally, but communities in other countries,” says her father.
North Bluff Animal Hospital is proud to announce the addition of Dr. Randy Kaler. Randy has had a presence at North Bluff Animal Hospital since the clinic first opened in 2001. As a high school student at Elgin Park Secondary, Randy would spend countless hours after school and on weekends helping his father Dr. Manjit Kaler care for the beloved pets of South Surrey/White Rock. Randy began his journey to become a veterinarian at the University of British Columbia. Despite the busy schedule and rigors of university, Randy still made time to work at North Bluff through the weekends and summers. In 2010 Randy pursued his dream of becoming a veterinarian at St. George’s University School of Veterinary Medicine and completed his clinical training at Washington State University in May 2014. Randy is excited to be moving back to the South Surrey/White Rock area and working with his father Dr. Manjit Kaler. At North Bluff Animal Hospital, we un-
derstand the importance of family, both animal and human and are excited that the expansion of our family means more opportunities to help your four legged family members. We recognize that everyone has a busy and variable schedule and in keeping with our goal to keep your pets happy and healthy, we are also excited to announce that we will be expanding our services in the near future to 7 days a week to better help serve our loyal, and expanding clients. For further questions about our extended hours give us a call at 604-531-0771. Drop by anytime to say hello to our newest family member Dr. Randy Kaler. We are always happy to see you and your furry friends!

Celebrating Our Youth Under 20 Sibling duo help homeless M atthew and Melissa Jongedijk show youth can make a visible difference regardless of their age. The Earl Marriott Secondary students, in Grade 9 and 8 respectively, have been helping people in their community since elementary school. Realizing their school didn’t have the volunteer opportunities they were after, the duo began their own community youth group, iCare Canada, four years ago. Matthew and Melissa helped organize service events, such as monthly trips to East Vancouver to feed the homeless, community movie nights and bottle drives, as well as sponsoring children with World Vision. Last year, more than 600 students regularly participated in their events, accumulating more than 7,000 hours of volunteer time. “When we go to deliver the food, we get to talk to the people and they are so thankful,” says Melissa. “You get to help them and see them happier.” In the past, they have assembled baked potatoes, bananas and other food at their house in South Surrey and delivered the bundles to the Downtown Eastside. “It feels good to talk to them and know that we are helping,” Matthew says. One time, their family packaged 150 baked potatoes for the
Melissa & Matthew Jongedijk underprivileged people, many of whom are homeless and living on the streets without access to regular healthy food. Matthew and Melissa have earned We Day tickets for their community group for the last three years, and participated in Me to We campaigns, including We Create Change. The volunteers learned more about being community leaders at the annual event, which aims to empower youth to be global citizens through year-round initiatives. “Matthew and Melissa are excellent examples of today’s kids finding the leader within,” says

Closer to home, Matthew and Melissa are interested in creating a greater sense of community among their neighbours, both youth and adults. They have planned movie nights to get people together to socialize while watching their favourite films. “Around Christmas we watched The Grinch. We also watched other kids movies,” says Melissa, adding anyone was invited to come out.

…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula
Peninsula Productions presents 1940s hit
Actor chemistry makes for Spirit-ed show Alex Browne
P
Arts Reporter
laywright, composer and actor Noel Coward aspired to the life of British high society – even though he wasn’t born to it. It’s a mark of his humble beginnings in the London suburb of Teddington that, while stylizing the laconic, clipped conversation affected by the upper crust – and, in the process, making it his trademark – he couldn’t resist poking fun at the manners and mores of his “betters.” In comedies like Private Lives, Hay Fever, Present Laughter and his 1940s hit Blithe Spirit – upcoming summer presentation of Peninsula Productions – Coward excelled at creating class-conscious socialites who were sleek, attractive and beautifully dressed, but more or less fatheads. “When you hear Ruth and Charles Condomine twittering on about their former maid, you realize that they may be among the beautiful people, but they’re actually jerks,” observed Peninsula Productions artistic director Wendy Bollard. The shallow, judgmental, sometimes misogynistic views the Condomines express in Blithe Spirit were genuine attitudes of the times, Bollard pointed out, and Coward was writing in 1940, when the grim realities of the Second World War had not fully overtaken pre-war mindsets. But part of the pleasure of Coward’s fantastical farce for audiences then – and today – is the certainty that there will be a comeuppance for the Condomines. “We get to see their world unravel,” Bollard said. When egotistical novelist Charles invites a medium, Madame Arcati, to conduct a séance in the couple’s English country house, he doesn’t feel it’s necessary to mention his tampering with the spirit world is simply a scheme to gather material for a new book. Retribution for his arrogance arrives swiftly and ectoplasmically

As the only one who can see or hear Elvira, an increasingly desperate Charles must find a way to pacify this particular ‘blithe spirit’ – who is clearly intent on causing havoc in his current marriage. For Charles and Ruth, Bollard is taking no chances, bringing back two of Peninsula Productions’ most popular and reliable players, Ben Odberg and Lori Tych (The Game’s Afoot, Death and the Maiden). They’re both actors who understand that nuanced playing is key to Coward’s brittle dialogue, Bollard said. “Comedy is all about subtext – it’s all about what the person is thinking, not about what they’re saying,” Bollard said. “This
wouldn’t work at all without the right Charles. It wouldn’t be funny at all.” Ruth, while obviously disturbed by the intrusion of Elvira, can’t be played on a single note of anger, Bollard adds – that would also trample the comedy flat. “Lori’s doing a great job of it – not falling into the trap of playing Ruth as simply bitchy.” The stellar quality of the current production receives an additional boost from the presence of two well-known Vancouver actresses: Annabel Kershaw, as the eccentric Madame Arcati, and Cherise Clarke, as sensuous spirit Elvira. Kershaw, frequently featured in Arts Club, Vancouver Playhouse and Gateway Theatre productions, has received two Jessie awards as best actor. “Annabel is just a delight,” said
Bollard. “She’s always got great ideas for the character – lots of great stuff in her bag of tricks for us to unpack and play with.” Clarke, also known from Arts Club shows, has worked for Blackbird Theatre, Neworld Theatre and had a notable earlier encounter with Coward’s world in Hay Fever under the direction of Nicola Cavendish. “Casting is so much about chemistry,” Bollard said. “In this show we have great chemistry between Charles and Elvira – the moment Cherise walked into the room and started reading with Ben, you could feel the energy crackling between them.” Bollard said strong support is being provided by Sheila ReaderRomo and Andrew Wood as the Condomines’ friends, the
fall & winter Catalogue 2014
Bradmans, and newcomer Stefania Wheelhouse as Edith, the hapless, wide-eyed new maid. All in all, Blithe Spirit has all the ingredients of a crowd-pleaser, Bollard said – although she’s learned not everyone likes the idea of séances, even in such a farcical context. A similar scene resulted in a walkout by a small group of offended theatre-goers during last summer’s run of The Game’s Afoot, she noted. “I’m really hoping those people, if they’re upset by séances, will stay away from this one!” she said. Blithe Spirit runs July 9-26, Coast Capital Playhouse, 1532 Johnston Rd.

Surrey Art Gallery presenting exhibit
Ismaili art on display Established and emerging B.C.based members of Ismaili Artists Canada show the humanistic approach of Islam – and share their experiences through paintings, photographs, calligraphy, and ceramics – in the exhibition Change: Contemporary Ismaili Muslim Art, on now at the Surrey Art Gallery (13750 88 Ave.). Works range from images of local scenes to landscapes of Africa and India; and from symbolic works that express ideas of peace and harmony to abstract compositions that explore the ideas of change and cycles. Change: Contemporary Ismaili Muslim Art is on display through Aug. 9 and admission is free (an opening reception celebrating this and all the gallery’s summer exhibitions is scheduled for this Friday, June 27, 7-9 p.m.). Participating artists are Aziz Dhamani, Jalal Gilani, Yasmin P. Karim, Azmina Kassam, Sher Nasser, Alia Noormohamed, Shahira Patni-Tejpar, Alnoor Ramji and Taslim Samji. Drawing on Islamic history and the Ismaili tradition, the current exhibit illustrates the inspiration of the artists to seek out the sacred as they go beyond the physical form.
Spectacular Scooter Event Contributed photo
Aziz Dhamani’s photograph of the Taj Mahal embodies his different, spiritual view of the monument. Ismaili Artists of Canada is an independent organization that promotes and supports visual media artists. The vision, mission, and core values of the organization are collectively embodied in the statement ‘leading art’ which recognizes the possibilities of art as a medium for progressive change while demonstrating the rich history of Islamic tradition and Qur’anic inspiration full of allegories, metaphors and symbols.

WHITE ROCK ELKS #431
Stella Maris to perform before leaving for Europe
1469 George St. 604-538-4016
Choir offers tour preview Sunday Arts Reporter
The Stella Maris Choir – resident ensemble of South Surrey’s Good Shepherd Church – is sharing its spiritually-uplifting music and its message on a third European tour. And while it can’t take the rest of us along with it, it will offer a preview of the tour program this Sunday (June 29, 3 p.m.) at the church, 2250 150 St. In keeping with the charitable impetus central to the choir’s mission, proceeds from the concert (tickets, $10; $8, seniors and students) will go to the White Rock/Surrey Food Bank, and donations of non-perishable food will also be accepted in bins provided in the foyer of the church. Following up on the choir’s previous tours (Germany in 2009, across Europe in 2012), the 2014 itinerary, featuring concerts in Germany, the Netherlands and Belgium, will run from July 16 to Aug. 3. Judging by the previous warm response of European audiences to Stella Maris’ approach – which could be described as faith manifest through sheer joy in musicality – the new tour will also be a huge success. “Our reasoning behind going on these tours is simply to share
Contributed photo
Stella Maris Choir will embark on its third European tour. our faith with others, to promote peace among all people, and to do this through our music,” said Stella Maris founder and director Trudi Stammer. “The admission prices that are charged in Europe are donated to the venue, usually a church, and are used for charitable purposes in their community,” she added. “We have sung in many beautiful churches on our tours and made many friends.» If there’s a secret to Stella Maris’ connection with audiences, Stammer said, it’s that the singers really invest themselves in their performances, as well as singing the music. “When any choir sings, it’s important for both the notes and the lyrics to connect with
the audience,” she said. “That’s what this choir does and does really well. They make the words so meaningful and touching to people – it’s their outstanding quality. “Some choirs, while excellent technically, can’t do that, and it means they’re not fulfilling what the music can be. But our members enjoy what they do, and enjoy having it connect with people.” In Germany, the Stella Maris Choir will perform at the Dom in Speyer, St. Michael’s in Rosrath, the Protestantische Kirche in Mutterstadt and the stadthalle in Hahnheim. In the Netherlands, they will perform at St. Jan De Doper church in Zutphen, while, in Belgium, they will mark the
100th anniversary of the beginning of the First World War at a Canadian war memorial honouring the fallen in both world wars. The repertoire, which will be previewed at Sunday’s concert, includes selections ranging from spirituals I’m Gonna Sing Til The Sprit Moves and Deep River, to the popular You Raise Me Up, to Stan Rogers’ Fogarty’s Cove, the Pie Jesu from Karl Jenkins’ Requiem, Goin’ Home from Dvorak’s NewWorld Symphony, Praise His Holy Name by Keith Hampton, and the Kenyan song of blessing Wanna Baraka, sung a cappella with African drum. Stammer notes that Sunday’s concert will also feature Stella Maris’ “accompanist extraordinaire” Henri Lorieau, and popular soloists Kiel Magis and Anna Boots. While the choir is away, Good Shepherd will feature an international exchange of musical talents on Sunday, July 27, at 2:30 p.m. with a concert by a professional Jugend (youth choir) visiting from Trier, Germany. Some 50 members aged 13-19 will perform under the direction of leader Thomas Kiefer. For more information on both concerts, call 604-531-5739.

Question of the Week Bob McHugh in his review of the Lincoln MKC reveals there is a new technology called “park out assist” which gets your vehicle out of the tight parking sport that the “park assist” shoehorned you into! Is this kind of technology in danger of diminishing a driver’s control skills? Go to DrivewayCanada.ca to submit your answer. QUESTION

Miata mates for life
Alexandra Straub
Stowe, Vermont – Despite the relatively early call time, a group of almost 100 Mazda Miata/MX-5 drivers/passengers gathers for the morning’s meeting. The weather is looking favourable even though the a.m. envelops the crowd with its chilliness. It’s not raining though. That’s a good sign. Tour organizer and former Trillium Miata Club president, Gary Svoboda, talks about the day’s journey, addresses some basic housekeeping rules, makes some jokes and engages in witty banter with a group of excited Miata enthusiasts. Everyone is ready to hit the roads of Vermont in their tiny, drop-top, two-doors. Everything from firstgeneration Miatas, to the latest and greatest rearwheel drive roadsters line the gravel parking lot of our home base, also known as the Stowehof Inn. Stowe, VT’s claim to fame is as a ski destination. Currently, its claim to fame is the 46 Mazdas that drove in from Ontario and are congregating for their annual tour. Each May long weekend, a group of club members look forward to the event. It’s been going for over 20 years and hasn’t disappointed. Regardless of background, profession, or preference in exterior colour, few vehicles in the world bring people together as strongly as Mazda’s MX-5. And as the Miata/MX-5 turns 25 this year, here’s to another quarter century of promoting the best that life has to offer: the bond of mankind and machine, 167 horsepower at a time.

The 2014 Honda Odyssey is one clean machine The 2014 Honda Odyssey is ready to take you on your next big messy adventure with the kids and it can help you clean up, too. The van features the world’s first in-car vacuum system called the HondaVac. It comes complete with a replaceable filter, canister bag, nozzle accessories and a hose capable of reaching the front seats. I feel a family email coming on. My sisterin-law Cristina has an Odyssey van and has been transporting a full-size shop vac and leaf blower around for years. My two nieces make quite a mess, unlike my tidy offspring. Just kidding. But before we get into an interior clean-up, let’s cast an eye over the vehicle’s exterior looks. It has a stylish hood that sweeps down towards the grille. The headlights are angled up and back giving the profile a sculpted look. Honda refers to the overall design as a lightning bolt. Not only does it provide an exclusive appearance, but also adds increased visibility for third-row passengers. Very nice interior, everything laid out nicely. So many bells and whistles you almost would want to run through a checklist before driving. Eight-passenger seating with a total passenger volume of 4,887 litres, whatever that means. And all those passengers get thirsty so Honda put in 15 cup holders. The third row is a one-motion 60/40 split ‘Magic’ seat that can accommodate three passengers and still leave 1,087 litres of cargo volume – that’s room for a lot of slushies for later in the journey. The second row is a three-mode seating with fold down centre console. Driver and front passenger seats are captain’s chairs that are very comfortable. My tester included a leather-wrapped steering wheel with audio controls, channel selector, cruise control and hands-free telephone button. The instrument panel is easier to read, thanks to little tweaks by the engineers. Satellite-linked navigation screen with trilingual voice recognition, 3D map and FM traffic is also available that uses GPS technology and a 60GB hard drive-
based operating system that provides the driver with turn-by-turn voice guidance to their chosen destination. The screen also is used for the back-up camera that offers three different views; normal view, wide angle, and top down. Both side sliding doors open automatically via the key fob or a switch on the dash. A 270-watt AM/FM/CD audio system with MP3/Windows Media audio playback and seven speakers including a subwoofer is standard, with a 650-watt and 12-speaker version also available. The i-MID or intelligent Multi information Display has the ability to display your incoming text messages while in park and read them out to you while driving. I had one driving home late one night and it said “your dinner is in the garbage, have a nice day.” Must have been a glitch. The available rear entertainment system features a huge 16.2-inch screen that includes two wireless headsets with personal surround sound. Safety is paramount with mini-van owners; the Odyssey earned a 2013 IIHS top safety pick and is the only minivan with a five-star safety rating from the NHTSA. It comes standard with vehicle stability assist, side curtain airbags and active front seat head restraints that are designed to help reduce neck injury in the event of a rear collision. There are also five lower anchors and tethers for children. Four-wheel anti-lock brakes and tire-pressure monitoring system is standard. There’s also an available land departure warning system. It utilizes onboard cameras to determine if you’re drifting too far out of your lane without using your turn signal. The engine is a 3.5 litre, 24 valve, SOHC, i-VTEC V6 that produces 248 hp and 250 lb-ft of torque. The engines variable cylinder management system allows the engine to run on three, four or six cylinders depending on the requirements. All models receive a six-speed automatic transmission. The combination makes the drive that much more comfortable and enjoyable. ian.harwood@ drivewaybc.ca

Mitchell Robinson drafted by Miami Marlins
‘Dream come true’ for Cloverdale slugger Gary Ahuja
M Black Press
itchell Robinson’s coach calls him ‘old-man Robo.’ The nickname stems from just how much Robinson, a Cloverdale resident, has changed in the three years since he joined the Langley Blaze of the BC Premier Baseball League. “I nicknamed him that because he looks like a man (now),” said Jamie Bodaly, the coach of the U18 team. “(When he got here) he was just this fresh-faced kid; he even sounded like a kid. Now, he could pass off as a 24-year-old or something.” There’s no doubt that Robinson, who is six-foot-three and 200 pounds, has matured both physically and with his skills on the field. And earlier this month, the first step towards a childhood dream came true as Robinson was selected in Major League Baseball’s first-year player draft. The Miami Marlins picked Robinson in the 22nd round of the 40-round draft. “It has been a huge goal and a dream (to get drafted),” the 18-year-old said. “Getting drafted is something that motivates a lot of players. It is a huge accomplishment and very rewarding for all the hard work I have put in.” Robinson was one of two members of the Blaze to get selected – the New York Mets took his teammate, left-handed pitcher Kurtis Horne, in the 31st round. Other PBL players to hear their name called were Nanaimo Pirates
Baseball Canada photo
Cloverdale resident Mitchell Robinson – shown here playing for Canada’s junior national baseball team – was drafted earlier this month by the Miami Marlins. pitcher Cody Chartrand (36th round, Texas Rangers) and North Delta Blue Jays shortstop Brad Antchak (Houston Astros, 39th
round). Robinson knew the Marlins were interested in him; he had spoken to one of their area scouts
multiple times. Last year, he hit .366 with 34 RBIs in 45 games and this season, the third-baseman is hitting .323
with 12 RBIs in 21 games. “I think I have come a long way in the past couple of years,” he said. “I think I provide power in the lineup and can be a gamechanging hitter.” His improvement has been noticed beyond the PBL borders, too. “He is a kid who has played hard to get to where he is,” said Greg Hamilton, the longtime coach of Canada’s junior national team program for which Robinson has played. “Physically, he is a big strong kid. Strong arm, some thump in his bat.” Robinson has been on the Baseball Canada radar since Grade 10. He was cut the first year, was a role player on the 2013 squad, but was a big contributor to the team this past spring. The team was in the Dominican Republic last month. “Getting the chance to represent your country and wearing Canada on the chest, that is a huge honour,” he said. “And with that is great exposure and great experiences. It was really special.” His perseverence was also noted by the Team Canada brass, who were impressed with his mental makeup. “To his credit, Mitchell has stuck with it and dealt with the adversity of not making (the team) as a very young player,” Hamilton said. “Oftentimes it is a step or two backwards in order to go two or three forward. He has done that.” Robinson said getting cut from the Canadian team two years i see page 46

Awards given to team
Young Cloverdale curlers honoured A young Cloverdale curling team was honoured this month by Curl BC. At Curl BC’s banquet – held June 14 in Coquitlam – skip Tyler Tardi received the Junior Male Athlete of the Year award, while his father, Paul, was announced as coach of the year. Tyler Tardi – a Cloverdale resident who curls out of the Langley Curling Club – had a very successful 2013-14 season, which included a first-place finish at the BC Winter Games in Mission. Tardi received the W.R. Bennett Award for Athletic Excellence, the first time a curler had earned the honour. He skipped his team to a bronze medal in Mission, and won silver
medals at both the Tim Hortons BC Junior Curling Championships and the 2014 BC High School Curling Championships. His team won the Canada Games qualifier, and will compete at the Canada Winter Games in Prince George next February. For his coach-of-theyear nod, Paul was awarded the Anita Cochrane Award. “Paul was nominated not just for his results but because of his great attitude toward knowledge,” according to a Curl BC news release. “He shares his knowledge, not just with players but also with other coaches in the curling community.”

Tough decisions i from page 45 ago wasn’t much of a surprise considering his age. Instead, he used it as a learning experience. “I was still pretty young and developing,” he admitted. “It was my first taste and I learned a little about what it was all about.” Robinson knew he had to put in the work to get bigger and stronger. “He is pretty much the whole package,” added Bodaly. “He does a lot of things right.And he is a very humble kid, down to earth, quiet, not a rahrah type, but a leader by example. “The kids look up to him.” Now comes the next chapter in Robinson’s
baseball career. Robinson, who is set to graduate from Clayton Heights Secondary later this month, has a four-year scholarship offer to Florida International University. If he attends university, Robinson would be re-eligible for the draft following his junior season. Or he can turn pro and sign with the Marlins and go into the team’s farm system. He can’t make a decision until after he graduates. “I am excited with moving forward with whatever path I choose,” Robinson said. “I just love to play. No matter what happens (next), I will just go about my business and play the game.”

Tritons wins The White Rock Tritons had a very successful trip to Vancouver Island last weekend, winning three of four games to remain in sixth position in the B.C. Premier Baseball League. The Tritons began their weekend with a pair of wins over the Nanaimo Pirates Saturday. In the first game, Zach Campagne threw a three-hit shutout in a 6-0 victory. The 18 year-old from Holy Cross high school had six strikeouts while limiting the Pirates to three singles and a pair of walks. Tom Melenchuk and Thomas Vincent had a pair of hits each for White Rock, with Vincent driving in three runs. Sunday morning in Parksville, White Rock managed just eight hits in an 8-3 loss. Jason Hill had two of the hits, driving in one run and scoring another. Vincent led the Tritons to a 9-6 win in the second game, hitting a single and a double while scoring twice. Juan Paez and Barry Baine also had a pair of hits, while Jordan Stephens took the win, allowing five runs (two unearned) on seven hits. White Rock is 15-14 (won-lost) on the season, and will play four times next weekend. They visit the Whalley Chiefs for two games Saturday, then host the Victoria Eagles Sunday at South Surrey Athletic Park.

The Cottages at Seabright Farm are located just minutes from the Lower Mainland, but you’ll easily be able to put your worries aside at your historically inspired cottage in a gorgeous ocean-view location. Tons of amenities are just around the corner, including the Point Roberts Marina.
Feeling the breeze at The Cottages at Seabright Farm By Kerry Vital
The Cottages at Seabright Farm is the largest and newest residential project in Point Roberts. Construction recently started, and Lower Mainland residents are flocking to it to purchase their own private piece of paradise. “You can purchase an ocean-view cottage for less than the price of an average condominium in Vancouver,” says Wayne Knowles of Orca Shores LLC, the project’s
developer. Seabright Farm is comprised of 58 lots spread across 62 acres of gently sloping south-facing waterfront. The large lots (1/4 to 1/2 an acre) offer privacy along with the great views and are located in three distinct zones: the Bluff, the Meadows and the Woodlands. Seabright Farm will also have a barn/community centre, greenhouse, outdoor swimming pool and hot tubs, sauna, community vegetable and flower gardens,
and orchards. The trails are perfect for running, cycling or horseback riding, and offer direct access to the beach. Because of both the elevation and south slope of the entire property, you’ll find a gorgeous view no matter where you purchase. The cottage plans range from 850 to over 2,500 square feet, in a variety of two-or-morebedroom floor plans. The styles include open floor plans, stone fireplaces, sunny window seats, hardwood flooring, large relaxing decks and covered porches. All of the plans give owners the option to expand their cottages in the future, whether it’s with a guesthouse, a studio or a separate master suite. Covered decks and breezeways can be built between the buildings, and garages (complete with guest suites) or potting sheds added to truly make your Seabright cottage your own. The cottage designs have been specifically developed to reflect the historical summer cottages and simple farm buildings typical of Point Roberts. That character is obvious when you visit the sales centre, which is actually an original farmhouse from the 1890s that’s been outfitted with finds from garage sales and Pottery Barn. It will become an additional gathering place for Seabright owners, along with the barn-themed community hall that will be used as a venue for neighbourhood
gatherings, art shows for local artists, cooking demonstrations, musical performances and wine tastings, among many other things! And beyond Seabright Farm, Point Roberts has plenty of other things to do, whether you’re staying for a month, a week or just a weekend. Play a round of golf at the 18-hole Point Roberts Golf and Country Club, or pay a visit to the Lighthouse Marine Park to see Orca whales, comb the beach or go clamming or crabbing. The 275-acre Lily Point Marine Reserve is just around the beach corner from Seabright Farm, and features sandy bluffs and tidal flats. The full-service Point Roberts Marina has over 900 slips and is also only minutes away. The Point’s unique restaurants and eclectic shops round out the experience. Canadians looking to purchase a cottage at Seabright Farm will be able to secure attractive long-term financing through a U.S. banking institution with 20 per cent down, and a Real Estate Disclosure Statement has been filed in British Columbia. With the opening of the South Fraser Perimeter Road earlier this year and plans to build a new bridge to replace the tunnel on Hwy 99, getting to Point Roberts is becoming that much more convenient from all parts of the Lower Mainland. The pricing at Seabright Farm is also exceptional, with lots starting at $180,000 U.S., while cottage and lot combinations start at $399,000. For more information about The Cottages at Seabright Farm, visit www. seabrightfarmcottages.com, call tollfree at 1-888-732-6915 or email info@ seabrightfarmcottages.com.

Real Estate Corner
looking for a house?
A. Here are ways to tap into what every buyer wants: • Every buyer wants a place to call “home”. The decision to buy is emotional, not 100% logical. Buyers look at a “house”, but they’re really evaluating it for its potential to become their home. Properly staging your house allows buyers to have an emotional experience - seeing their family living there. • Every buyer wants a bargain. Subtly influence buyers by using such phrases as “priced to sell” or “a unique bargain at this price”. • Every buyer wants to claim special discounts. You can motivate a sale by creating a sense of urgency. Consider using special terms that expire on a fixed date.
