Real-estate agent died protecting his family from intruder
Loved ones say goodbye to a hero Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter
Colin Hill will be remembered as a hero – someone of strong character who always put his family and friends first, and who paid the ultimate price for doing just that. The popular real-estate agent was killed July 12 during an attempted break-in at his Cloverdale home, when he was shot while confronting an intruder. Hill’s wife, Becky Zhou, has said the fatal wound occurred when her husband led the would-be robber outside to give his family Colin Hill time to hide, and shooting victim those who spoke at his funeral Wednesday at Victory Memorial Funeral Centre say that was just the kind of man he was. “He would drop everything for his kids,” Barb Hiebert said of her cousin. “To put himself in harm’s way… for him, it was instinct. “He left our world protecting his own family.” Longtime friends remembered Hill, 42, as “like a brother.” He was also extremely competitive, a “tremendously gifted athlete and a true leader.” i see page 4

Police characterization that victim was ‘suicidal’ is part of investigation
Witnesses ‘critical’ to shooting-death review Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter
As the mother of a young man killed by police last Saturday waited to see her son’s body, those investigating the circumstances surrounding the fatal shooting in South Surrey issued another appeal for help piecing together how Hudson Brooks came to be where he was when he died. “We are trying to identify any other witnesses who may be able to assist us in understanding how this lad came to
be on 152nd early Saturday morning,” Kellie Kilpatrick, spokesperson for the Independent Investigations Office, said by email Thursday. “Civilian witnesses are critical for us to speak with so that we can understand what led this young man to be in that situation.” Brooks, 20, died around 2:30 a.m. July 18, after police responded to reports of a “suicidal” man screaming outside of the South Surrey RCMP office, in the 1800-block of 152 Street.
According to police, a struggle ensued and Brooks was shot. An officer was also shot in the altercation, however, investigators have since revealed that only police-issued firearms were found at the scene. The officer’s wound was not life-threatening. The suggestion that Brooks was suicidal has been a point of contention amongst the young man’s friends and family, who have vehemently disputed the notion. Kilpatrick told Peace Arch News inves-

tigators have not confirmed the detail. “Right now we know that the call for service (as per the RCMP) was for a distressed man who the caller reported as suicidal – we are not confirming that to be true or not true – as these are early days in the investigation,” she said.

Mayor Hepner ‘understands it takes time to get people from one end of the country or to transfer’
First six of 100 officers arrive in Surrey Kevin Diakiw Black Press
More than a month after the federal government said Surrey had 20 new police officers, the city has received only six new Mounties. Conservative Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness Steven Blaney was at the Delta Public Safety Building Tuesday for a forum with local mayors. At a media scrum afterward, Blaney said Surrey had 33 new officers in April, and six more since. However, the 33 were owed this city from last year, he acknowledged when asked by Black Press, and he confirmed that Surrey has only six of the 100 it’s asked for this year.
He would not say how many of the 100 will be delivered before the federal election in October. “I can’t commit to this number,” Blaney said. “The number is evolving every day, there are more coming in the coming weeks. We will keep you updated.” More than five weeks ago, Blaney told the House of Commons that Surrey had 20 new officers deployed. “Today, I am pleased to announce that the deployment of the first 20 members committed to Surrey is underway and that boots are already on the ground,” Blaney said in a news release on June 11. However, Black Press learned at the time that there had been no new Mounties added

June 19 altercation
Sprinkler complaints
Road-rage witnesses sought
Fines on deck Kevin Diakiw Black Press
White Rock RCMP issued an appeal last week for witnesses to a violent altercation that took place a month earlier and ended with one man going to hospital. According to police, officers were called to the area of Habgood Street and Buena Vista Avenue around 2:30 p.m. June 19, after a passerby reported “an altercation of two males who were engaged in a physical fight.” “As a result of the fight, injuries were sustained by the males,” a notice posted online July 17 notes. Cpl. Michelle Thiessen said Tuesday that police believe the altercation was the result of “road rage.” It involved a man in his 20s and a man in his 30s; the latter went to hospital for his injuries. Vehicles associated with the incident were a white Dodge Charger and a white Subaru. Thiessen said no arrests have been made, but police would like to speak with any witnesses. “We just want to get the full picture of what occurred,” she said. Anyone who witnessed the altercation is asked to contact police at 778-593-3600, referencing file #2015-2830.
Matter of pride The ‘pride’ flag will be raised at White Rock city hall Monday, after council unanimously voted last week to recognize the upcoming gay-pride festivities. The request to take part in Pride Week celebrations – an annual event held July 27-Aug. 4 in Vancouver celebrating LGBT equality – was submitted to council last month by the White Rock Business Improvement Association. In addition to flying the rainbow-coloured flag at city hall, the BIA requested the city hold a flagraising ceremony to recognize the occasion, which will take place at 11 a.m. July 27.

Surrey has been flooded with calls of complaint about people violating watering restrictions. On Monday, Metro Vancouver moved to stage 3 water-use restrictions, prohibiting all home water sprinkling. The sprinkling ban also covers commercial lawns and all parks, cemeteries and boulevards. Surrey’s manager of bylaw enforcement, Jas Rehal, said Wednesday that officers have issued 900 warnings since June 1 – more than 17 per day. During that time, the City of Surrey handed out four fines of $250 to violators. Now that the region has moved to stage 3 restrictions, Surrey bylaw officers are moving toward handing out more tickets, instead of just warnings, as officials feel residents should now be fully aware of the restrictions. Rehal is asking that people who call bylaw enforcement do so if they see watering violations, not just the sight of a green lawn. Residents can still water shrubs, trees, vegetables and flower gardens using hand-held hoses, but only if they have a spring-loaded shutoff nozzle. Watering cans and drip irrigation systems are still allowed, but there’s no watering of gardens or planters using sprinklers or soaker hoses. Hosing off vehicles and surfaces and all forms of pressure washing are also banned, except for health and safety purposes, as well as commercial pressure washing to prepare a surface for painting or sealing. Stage 3 restrictions are expected to remain in place until Sept. 30. Metro Vancouver has only once before gone to region-wide stage 3 restrictions – during severe drought conditions in 2003. In neighbouring White Rock, utility Epcor still has its users on its regular seasonal stage 1 restrictions, allowing lawn sprinkling three days a week 4-9 a.m., specified by address.

violence all over the country.” Hepner said she plans to advocate for the people of Surrey, but that “this is all about Colin today.” Hiebert told attendees that a common theme regarding her cousin was evident at a private gathering last Sunday where “a few laughs and a few tears” were shared: he was a good son and brother, and family meant everything to him. The sentiment was echoed by childhood friend Lowell Jordan, who shared a comment Hill
made to him about three weeks ago. “One of the last words he told me was to spend more time with family,” Jordan said. Pastor Doug Fortune noted there are many things not known or understood regarding Hill’s death, but reminded Hill’s friends, family and colleagues that they have choices when it comes to how they think about it. He encouraged them to be inspired by Hill’s life; to “get better, love more, build relationships.”

Regarding seeing her son’s body, the South Surrey resident said she was told it’s “not presentable.” Coroner Barb McLintock confirmed Thursday that Brooks’ body had been “locked down” since the incident. The step, she said, is legally required “between the scene and the autopsy”, in cases where a homicide charge is
a possibility. However, noting the autopsy was being done that day, McLintock said she expected the body would be released to Brooks’ family today (Friday) “at the latest.” Anyone with information on Hudson Brooks’ actions in the hours leading up to his death is asked to call the IIO witness line at 1-855-446-8477 or Kilpatrick’s office, at 778-988-1041.

i from page 1 “Even in death he has taught me about life,” Chris Robinson told a standing-room-only crowd in South Surrey. “His final lesson is to show the people you love that you would do anything for them. And that’s exactly what he did.” Hill led a “much too short, very fulfilling life,” said Robinson, who knew Hill for 33 years; for the past nine, they lived across the street from each other. Police have said that Hill’s death was not related to the spate of shootings that have occurred in Surrey since early March, which have been linked to a drug-turf war. The man charged in connection with his death, 22-year-old Khouri Lamar Green, is due back in court on Sept. 14. Outside the funeral home Wednesday afternoon, Surrey Mayor Linda Hepner – who was invited by Hill’s family and who arrived with Surrey RCMP Chief Supt. Bill Fordy – described Hill’s death as “a real tragedy” that points to a need to “take a look at the whole system.” But the problem is not just in Surrey, she said. “We’ve seen senseless acts of

Neighbours urge city to ‘do the right thing’
presents luxurious Crystal Cruises
Duplex project opposed Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter
Residents concerned with a development proposed for a Grandview Heights neighbourhood are crossing their fingers that Surrey council will “do the right thing” Monday when the project comes forward for third reading. “What we’re asking is, go by your policy… preserve what’s across the street from us,” said Gary Cameron. Tara Developments has applied to build 16 semi-detached duplexes and one single-family home on just over two acres in the 16600-block of 26 Avenue. The application received first and second reading July 13 – and was scheduled for a public hearing July 27 – despite a report recommending council refer the project back to staff and the applicant “for further dialogue with area residents to address outstanding issues.” The report notes “significant opposition” on the part of residents, who favour development that is more consistent with what already exists in the area: single-family homes. They also oppose the requested elimination of a “transition landscape buffer requirement.”

Grandview residents Gary Cameron and Victoria Blinkhorn. Victoria Blinkhorn, who chairs the Grandview Heights Stewardship Association, said association members and other area residents want to see a standard that was set for two nearby projects on 26 Avenue – which propose 30-metre-wide lots – continue. It would ensure appropriate, sensitive transitions that protect the neighbourhood from encroaching urbanization, she said. However, Blinkhorn said the developer has had no appetite to consider residents’ concerns. Reached Wednesday, Tara Developments owner Jasbir Takhar deferred comment to his agent and architect, neither of which could
be reached by Peace Arch News press deadline Thursday. However, the City of Surrey’s manager of area planning and development for South Surrey, Nicholas Lai, confirmed the two sides are at an impasse. Noting the project complies with the Neighbourhood Concept Plan policies, Lai said Tuesday that “there is obviously a major difference in terms of what the applicant wants to see and what the residents want to see.” “One of the things that staff like to achieve before we present an application to council is that there is an agreement and the issues have been addressed. In this particular case, there wasn’t any agreement…. From the residents’ perspective, they think they have not been heard.” The applicants are aware of residents’ concerns, Lai said. Cameron described the proposed development as “incompatible” with the neighbourhood, noting that the area across the street is being considered for Rural Designation zoning – which, if approved, would essentially protect the area from higher-density development. That zoning change is also on Monday’s agenda.

warrants for breaching previously imposed court conditions. He “has worn disguises in the past to avoid detection and happened to be wearing one that day,” Roberts noted. He was arrested without incident. Jamey Ziegler appeared in Surrey Provincial Court on Monday, and is due back in court July 28. The site of the arrest – 1501 Vidal St. – is destined for a 12-sto-

Don’t fall victim to summertime carelessness
I
t’s so easy to become inattentive in summer. Blazing sun and hot temperatures seem guaranteed to put the more vigilant parts of our brains on hold. Whether we’re just befuddled trying to beat the heat – or eager to get out and be part of the many fun activities that warm weather offers, particularly in our seaside community – distraction is at an all-time high this time of year. Unfortunately, as recent crime statistics show, there are those who are more than ready to take full advantage of any lapse of attention on our part. Quoted in a story in today’s edition, White Rock RCMP Const. Deryk Roberts warns that property crime usually takes an upturn in summer. Is there any wonder at it? The natural impetus is to leave home windows open to catch any breeze, and as we stroll in and out, we are likely to be less attentive to locking doors, or even closing them – an open invitation to an uninvited visitor who won’t hesitate in taking an inventory of our personal belongings, and making off with the most portable of them. While loading vehicles, we’ll often leave costly cameras and sports equipment sitting outside, a crime of opportunity just waiting to happen. But it’s not just theft of valuables we have to worry about – offenders are also after mail and anything else they can leverage for subsequent, often very costly, identity theft. And once we get in those vehicles – and get out again at our destination – are we really sure that we locked all of the doors and closed all of the windows? Did we lock valuables out of sight in the trunk – or did we leave them in plain view? Insp. Peter Jadis, officer in charge of the Integrated Municipal Provincial Auto Crime Team, notes that car thefts leapt 29 per cent across B.C. last year. He warns that it’s not just carelessly displayed items or the vehicles themselves that criminals are after – a garage door-opener and an address from insurance documents could be the key to a much higher payoff for a criminal, but one that poses a greater potential risk to ourselves and our families. Our vigilance must also extend to our families – children, caught up in the excitement of the moment, are not likely to pay close attention to closing or locking doors after them. But, in reality, in this day and age, any one of us could be responsible for a lapse that could mar our summer – and end up having to pay a hefty price in property loss and insurance hassles.

Don’t believe me? Try walking a small, well-behaved, leashed dog on White Rock’s waterfront promenade. I’m predicting the advice will be plentiful. If you’re a smoker (and, really, you shouldn’t be, but not because of any set rules), I’m guessing you’ve had the odd comment cast your way, despite any efforts to puff away downwind. Late last month, a group of soccer players not far from Bear Creek Park found out the hard way exactly what it means to ignore the City of Surrey’s draconian bylaws. They had the audacity to play their game in a city park without first applying for a permit. Such cheek. Their reward was being confronted by a zealous city bylaw official and being sent home after a patronizing lecture from an RCMP officer. (After a video of their encounter was posted online, though, the city clarified its position, blaming a miscommunication and maintaining permits for city parks are needed only for “organized” fun.) Miscommunication? Sounds like those in charge were more concerned with enforcing society’s rules rather than stopping to consider the reason the rules were adopted in the first place. But I guess that’s the choice we all make, whether to follow the rules verbatim or to make our own judgments and risk a ticket and possible confrontation when an overly pedantic official disagrees. As for me, I plan to follow the letter of the law. Otherwise, I’m sure to hear from you. Right? Lance Peverley is the editor of Peace Arch News.

Maximizing efficiency
They have our money to burn
Editor: Re: Time to revisit city merger, July 10 letters. The letter to the editor from Ron Kistritz has struck a chord with me since digesting his very well-written observations. I moved from Surrey to White Rock three years ago because downsizing became a necessity. Now I live in a smaller home on a lot that is a fraction of the size of my former residence, yet my taxes are well over twice as high as in Surrey. In comparing the two city services, to say that White Rock has been disappointing is putting it mildly. Also, the street I live on looks more like a broken down back alley, which always surprises my visitors to see this is what White Rock looks like. I realize that, once upon a time, Surrey appeared to be run by a bunch of cowboys, which White Rock chose not to be a part of. However, over the years Surrey has grown and developed into a sophisticated and efficient operation while White Rock has stood still and actually fallen behind the times. Of course, it is not possible for a tiny city like White Rock to be as efficient as its big neighbour. This equates to trying to compare a corner mom-and-pop store to, perhaps, Costco. The newspaper carries horror stories of White Rock increasing its density with highrises in order to broaden its tax base. If we were to join Surrey, then White Rock would be able to remain as is with its quaint character intact. I would like to challenge the mayor and council to pursue this topic, since it would be in the best interests of the residents – although in the long run it could result in them being out of a job. Lucille Lewis, White Rock Q Further to Ron Kistriz’s letter of July 10, I heartily agree that amalgamation with Surrey is long overdue. When I lived in Coquitlam, there were three of everything in the Tri-Cities: three councils, city halls, fire departments, libraries, leisure departments and so on. But only two different police forces and one school board. All of this for a combined population of about 200,000, which is about half of Surrey’s present population. We had and still have three mayors and 20 councillors, with a total wage bill over a million dollars. Surrey manages quite nicely with one mayor and eight on council. Then I moved to White Rock – for the geography not the politics. The situation here is not as bad as the Tri-Cities, perhaps, but it still borders on the absurd that 20,000 people need a political establishment all of their own. Reunification with Surrey is necessary and desirable. Asher W. Bell, White Rock
Editor: We were having lunch at Montana’s at Morgan Crossing last Sunday. When we arrived, the staff were all out trying to douse a fire on the boulevard. It was started by someone throwing a cigarette out of a car window. This was the third fire they have put out in the past two weeks. The fire department had to be called because the fire gets buried in the mulch and tends to smoulder. This is an expensive proposition
for the fire department. When will smokers learn that lighted cigarettes cause fires? James Meyers, Surrey
We’re in for a bumpy year Editor: Since January, 24 Avenue between 152 and 148 streets must be the nightmare street of this year. The ‘waterline project’ was a messy disaster from the start and still is, looking like a discarded and unkempt afterthought of a project. It is a sight – broken up, patched up, the newly planted vegetation in
the centre dying or dead and the concrete centres a sorry sight. Days and weeks have gone by without a soul working there, then it’s three days with plenty of people standing around, holding up “slow” signs, holding up traffic while lots of machinery is doing godknowswhat, as it never gets ‘done’. Driving on 24 Avenue is an extremely bumpy experience, and who knows what the future will hold for what used to be a pleasant, not-too-busy street. Truly, the way this ridiculously slow project has been going, one cannot but wonder how long it would take in this day and age to build the whole city, roads and all in Surrey. About 3,000 years, I presume! Madelon Keij, Surrey

It is amazing how much water you can collect in one day, and how quickly it can become part of your routine.a Areta Evans

This summer’s lack of rain – resulting in stage 3 water restriction in Surrey, stage 1 in White Rock – draws opinions.
Words of advice over water use Editor: Don’t tell someone on Marine Drive in Surrey between 128 Street and 133A Street that they can’t water their lawn at their multi-million-dollar home around 10 a.m. They got the bucks, so they can do what they want. Bylaws… lol! Art Van-Lane, Surrey Q As an apartment dweller in White Rock, I am struck by the lush green lawns surrounding condos in this area. Houses and apartment buildings sport dried-out grass in the lawns, yet condos, by and large, are verdant, untouched by the Level 4 drought that grips this ‘temperate rain forest’. Are they in denial? Protecting an investment? What? This selective waste of water by strata councils must stop immediately. Christopher Jennings, White Rock Q I read with interest about the need to conserve water and the implementation of water restrictions for the Greater Vancouver area. This includes the City of Surrey. I suggest most people would find the need to conserve water a matter of responsible civic duty and responsible environmental practice with a view towards the future. Clearly there is no endless supply of fresh water. Many Surrey councillors advocate responsibility in one form or another on their page on the city website. However, when I think about responsible water conservation, I am puzzled as to why the city approves the building of multiple condos and townhouses. A person need only to travel short distances in and around South Surrey to observe the overwhelming construction of numerous condos and townhouses. I would not be surprised to learn the number of new units in the last five years is well into the thousands. Some of the complexes now sit on land where there used to be one or two houses but now there are multi-
unit structures. Many large-lot properties in South Surrey currently have sold signs and property development signs, indicating more condo and townhouse units are to come. I don’t think you need to be an expert in water consumption to figure out that the addition of thousands of toilets, dishwashers, washers and people showering use more water than the previous one- or two-family house that used to occupy the land. I would like to see Mayor Linda Hepner go on public record and state unequivocally that prior to allowing the addition of thousands of new condos and townhouses, a water study was conducted by the city that supports the addition of thousands of new units. Further, can the mayor please assure us that we will in fact never run out of water due to the local widespread and mass construction of condos and townhouses? I request these statements from our mayor because it appears the conservation of water when approving the building of condos and townhouses was an afterthought, an oversight or no thought at all. I hope I am wrong. K. Jones, Surrey Q If the Greater Vancouver area is to survive a severe water shortage, everyone should start using recycled water on their shrubs and trees. Each household could purchase two buckets and one white basin to fit in their kitchen sink. The cost at the dollar store is about $6. Put one bucket in the bathroom, to transport your bath water outside. If you use a shower, some water can be collected by placing the bucket in the shower with you. Place the other pail in the kitchen, and put the white basin in the kitchen sink. If you rinse your vegetables under running water, or your dishes before putting them in the dish washer, let the water run into the basin and then pour the water into the bucket. It is amazing how much water you can collect in one day, and how quickly it can become part of your routine. Areta Evans, Surrey

course, that’s harder to do on large properties. That’s where planting wisely comes in. Drought-resistant plants make the most sense. As for car washing, commercial car washes are still operating and those desperate to wash their vehicles can go there. Surrey and Delta have a lot of farms, and people will see fields being watered in the coming days and weeks. This, of course, is to allow crops to grow. Most farms have their own water systems, and most watering is done through water licences. They are not drawing down the Metro reservoirs, although some farms may find wells going dry. Some common sense about water usage can go a long way. B.C. is a long way from having California-style drought, but this year is a good reminder that we need to use water wisely. We take it for granted because so much of it falls in the form of rain each year. Nonetheless, it is a precious resource that is absolutely essential to every form of life. Using it wisely, as individuals, businesses and governments, should be something that we do automatically, no matter what time of year it is.

Annual event returns to White Rock’s waterfront Aug. 1-2
Sea Fest offers ‘something for everyone’ Alex Browne Staff Reporter
F
ollowing a successful revival last year, a local legend is back. White Rock’s Sea Festival returns to the waterfront Aug. 1-2 – with a combination of entertainment, activities and events that promises something to appeal to just about everyone. That includes a beefed-up Sunday Torchlight Parade, for which parade director Maurene Beales has gathered an extra 20 entries this year, for a total of 75 expected participants. According to Dave Braun, president of festival organizers, the White Rock Events Society, a key to boosting this cornerstone event has been the presence on the parade circuit of the White Rock float championed by Deanna Pedersen and LaVerne Hogg. “When you go to other people’s festivals, they tend to come to yours,” Braun said. “For the first time in 20 years, the White Rock float has been on the road participating in multiple festivals, including the Hyack Festival, the Marysville Parade and the Steveston Salmon Fest – and this weekend it’s the Seattle Torchlight Parade, on July 25.” Beales has put together an “amazing lineup” for the White Rock parade, Braun said, “featuring the Blues Brothers Too, who will be performing on the main stage, pre-parade on Marine Drive and then again in the parade.” Another cornerstone event, the Semiahmoo Park children’s area – known recently as Pirates in the Park – is being organized for the 13th year by Heather Crawford, also known as Korki The Clown. Braun said maintaining ties with such longtime festival participants is not accidental. “It’s a huge benefit to the festival to have people involved who are from the community and committed to the community,” he said. Debut events this year also meet that test, he added, among them a Lantern Walk from the iconic white rock to the end of the pier, organized by new Sea Festival partner, the Chinese Village Club. “Last year we started some discussion with the group and this year they really wanted to be involved in organization of the event. They’ll be giving out lanterns at the end of the main-stage performance Saturday night, so that people watching can walk out on the pier. It should be a great visual – just after dusk and just before the fireworks, which are scheduled for 10 to 10:15 p.m.”

White Rock Youth Ambassadors wave to the crowd during last year’s Torchlight Parade. Braun acknowledged that one noted feature of past sea festivals – a sand sculpture created by world-renowned artist Craig Mutch – will not be present. He said that the society “as a volunteer, non-profit group” had hoped to involve Mutch this year in a “partnership” in which he would bring in sponsors – rather than directly sponsoring the sculpture. “Unfortunately we weren’t able to reach an agreement with Craig for this year,” Braun said. “I wouldn’t rule out him being involved in future – he’s a great artist and his work is a benefit to the festival.”
The ever-popular Waiters’ Race – once again MC’d by Surrey-White Rock MLA Gordon Hogg – will be back, as will the fireworks demonstration concluding the Sunday night parade, and other returning events include the White Rock Skim Boarding Jam and the Kids’ Sandcastle Challenge. Other beach-oriented activities include the fourth annual Sundog Semiahmoo Standup Classic hosted by adventure sports store owner Scott Robertson – featuring an appearance by the world’s number-one paddle boarder Danny Ching – as well as Rotary Sand Golf and the Coastal FC Sand
Soccer Skills Challenge. For the more sedentary, Fresh Air Cinema, co-sponsored by Semiahmoo First Nation, will present a screening of Big Hero 6 at Semiahmoo Park at 8:30 p.m. Friday night (July 31) as a kick-off Sea Festival event. Live entertainment Saturday and Sunday – also a must for the festival – is co-ordinated for a sixth year by well-known guitarist/ bandleader Jim Black. “Jim was born here, grew up here and still teaches here,” noted Braun, who added that he’s “overjoyed” at the entertainment lineup. Performances will be day-long on the main stage, located on West Beach next to the white rock (8 a.m to 9 p.m. Saturday; 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Sunday.) A highlight is the return of Tom Lavin and the Legendary Powder Blues as Saturday night’s headliners, starting at 8 p.m. “It’s not too many festivals that will have the same headliner two years running,” said Black. “But they like it here in White Rock – and White Rock likes them.” Said Braun: “We were so happy with their performance last year – about 1,000 people came out to hear them – that we asked Tom if they’d like to do it again. We got a quick response back and we’re excited to have them.” The rest of the main stage lineup also features “lots of great community stuff,” Black added. It begins Saturday with a new event, at 8 a.m., a yoga demonstration led by Lauren Roegle, followed by Sandlanee Gid and the Urban Haida Singers at 11 a.m. “She’s actually someone I went to school with, who’s part of the Haida Gwaii,” Black said. At noon, it’s the close harmonies of i see page 12

Notice of Work: Hazardous Tree Removal Contributed photo
Healthy trees are important! They provide clean air and shade in the summer. Unfortunately, dead or defective trees can pose a threat to public safety. When this happens, your wellbeing is our top priority.
Daisuke Serizawa takes part in a scavenger hunt for the lung association.
A real RUSH of support
The City of White Rock is conducting hazard abatement work on trees in Centennial Park around the Mann Park running track. The City will remove two large big leaf maple trees due to extensive rot and decay. A number of other trees, mostly Alder, will be turned into wildlife stems and the coarse wood debris left on site in order to eliminate the risk associated with the presence of rot and decay. A number of other trees will have a crown cleaning to remove the dead, diseased, and poorly attached limbs while maintaining appropriate arboriculture standards and practices.
White Rock’s Daisuke Serizawa was among nearly 300 participants to take part in this month’s scavenger hunt in support of the BC Lung Association. Serizawa, along with teammate Sonia Shao, competed in RUSH: Race & Urban Scavenger Hunt on July 11. Checkpoints for the competition were scattered throughout Metro Vancouver and each were designed to push
participants “to their physical and mental limits.” The challenges undertaken by Serizawa, Shao and the rest of the field included a roller-derby event, bubble balls and one involving jelly beans. Since its inception, the RUSH event has raised $75,000 to support lung health, as well as research, advocacy and education about lung disease.

…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula
Bob Jadis’ paintings on display at library
A man of many talents Alex Browne Arts Reporter
In a sign about Bob Jadis’s work, Semiahmoo Library’s Renee Zolinski Ward describes the Peninsula artist as a “renaissance man.” “I’ve been called a lot of things over the years, but that is a first,” quipped the tall, cowboyhat-sporting, wryly humourous painter. In truth, it’s a good description for the quietly modest Jadis, who, in addition to painting the richhued, landscapeBob Jadis inspired abstracts on show at the artist South Surrey library for the rest of this month, is also an author whose works include Songs of a Saddle Tramp, a collection of poetry evoking the Old West. He’s also the creator of two fanciful pseudo-‘old-time’ machines that can be found in a display case at the library – the Speculator and the Name-OMeter (both bearing the date 1926 – significant for him as the year in which his lovingly-restored Model T Touring Car rolled off the assembly line). The Wolfville, N.S.-born Jadis is also, in no particular order of importance, a cartoonist; a musician whose multiple instruments include trombone and Celtic fiddle; a soap-stone carver; a ventriloquist for charitable events under the name ‘Buckaroo Bob’; a keen horseman, a community volunteer of some 60 years – and a practising Buddhist (his registered name, Guang Xie, means ‘man with big heart’). For 25 years, he was a member of the RCMP in Ottawa specializing in intelligence work – rising to the rank of senior advisor and director of security operations for the Privy Council Office and the Office of the Prime Minister. But the arts have always had a fascination for him – all the way from when he was a young boy attending Acadia University, and, later, at the Nova Scotia School of Art, to his directorship of the St. Petersburg Art i see page 18

Jadis prefers to leave painting interpretations to the viewer i from page 17 Institute in Florida where he wintered two years during the 1990s. It was there that he selected acrylic as his medium for his more serious ventures into painting – of which many representative examples can be found at the library. Most distinctive are the abstract landscapes – inspired by both the geology and the sunset purples and oranges of the Grand Canyon area of Utah, Colorado and Arizona, where he and his wife, Trude Erickson, spend each winter near the town of Surprise. Jadis’s eye for form and composition, evident in both his painting and cartooning, is manifest in the architectural pillars and beautiful rounded stones of his landscapes and also in their relationship to the ‘frame’. “I have a tendency to paint outside the borders,” he acknowledged. “It gives the paintings a 3-D quality.”
Contributed photo
A Bob Jadis painting that will be on display. The works are rooted in real landscapes he has observed in the region, he said. “I don’t take any pictures. When I drive through an area I like, I stop and stare at it for a long time. It’s all in my mind. I don’t want to take a picture, because it would be
detrimental to the process. I want to paint my own interpretation.” In a place called Carefree, Ariz., for example, one can encounter the same gently rounded rock formations that Jadis features in his paintings. “Everything flows, one thing into another,” he said. “I’ve incorporated that.” Similarly, what he calls ‘wingtips’ at the top of many paintings are inspired by the actual effect of wind erosion on rock formations. Jadis is not inclined to impose a specific meaning on a painting, he said – he’d prefer that to be supplied by the viewer. “It means whatever you want to see in the painting,” he said. There is one notable exception – a painting he considers a key piece in the collection which takes pride of place above the fireplace on the south wall of the museum. Titled Inukshuk, it’s a tribute to Victoria-
raised basketball player Steve Nash. As he explains, the stone structure representative of the north is also a reference to its being chosen as symbol for the 2010 Olympics, for which Nash was a torchbearer. The structure is contrasted with a natural rock formation from Arizona, painted in the orange and purple official colours of one of Nash’s teams, the Phoenix Suns. The show is not all geology-inspired. Jadis has also included such still lifes as Mushrooms, Orchids and Cranberry Rhapsody – which demonstrates his desire to close any open loops in each composition. They’re also an example of his somewhat cavalier, quirky sense of humour. “In Cranberry Rhapsody, it’s been pointed out to me that cranberries don’t grow like grapes,” he said. “But that’s the beauty of the piece – the liberties I can take as an artist.”

Jazz festival to host top international players Alex Browne Arts Reporter
Shoppers serenaded by the Square Pegs Jazzy Band at Save-OnFoods at Semiahmoo Centre July 18 couldn’t help but get the message. The two-hour concert was a mellow musical reminder that the White Rock Traditional Jazz Society will host Metro Vancouver’s most prestigious retro jazz event – the 2015 Jazz Band Ball – at the Pacific Inn and Resort Centre Sept. 26-27. The Square Pegs – Peg Thomson (piano), Dave Ayton (vibraphone), Rob Arseneau (trumpet), Jim Armstrong (trombone and vocals), Casey Tolhurst (bass) and Bob Aitken (drums) – is
one of numerous bands revisiting the popular sounds of the Jazz Age at the two-day event. So is WRTJS’ house band – Red Beans and Rice (featuring Rice Honeywell Sr., cornet; Gerry Green, reeds; Ray Batten, trombone; Don Ogilvie, guitar; Thomson, piano; Tolhurst, bass; and Scott Robertson, drums). But the event will also summon a fine sampling of traditional jazz experts from the Northwest, as far south as Seattle, and as far east as New York. “We’re very excited with our lineup,” notes Ayton, who also doubles as WRTJS publicist. “(Noted reedman) Evan Arntzen, currently living in New York,
will be flying in to play with Simon Stribling’s New Orleans Ale Stars and his own group, The Brothers Arntzen. He is bringing with him (vocalist) Tamar Korn, who is developing an international reputation.” Three other notable U.S. musicians, Ray Skjelbred, Clint Baker and Jeff Hamilton, will sit in with Stribling (who will host the 7:30 p.m. Friday night kickoff party for the event, $10 at the door) and will also be featured during the course of the weekend, Ayton said. “Ray is a superb pianist currently living in Seattle. He is described as a ‘national treasure’ who revisits the ‘stride’ style of the 1930s – his Yeti Chasers
Jazz Band will also be featured,” said Ayton. “Clint Baker, a multi-instrumentalist from California, is a regular member of (featured group) Grand Dominion Jazz Band, as is Jeff Hamilton, also from California. They will be sharing trombone duties in the Ale Stars, as well as playing trumpet and drums with Grand Dominion. Also featured is Seattle’s Uptown Lowdown Jazz Band and youth group, the Curbside Jazz Band, from Chilliwack. “Both venues at the Pacific Inn have dance floors and a combination of theatre and cabaret-style seating,” Ayton said. Ayton said the cost of
a two-day badge to the event is $70 – or $62.50 if purchased before Aug. 1. One-day badges
(Saturday $40, Sunday $30) will go on sale on Sept. 1 if seating is still available.

The sound of the blues will be wailing beside the sea this Sunday. The White Rock Blues Society’s sixth annual Blues Challenge at Semiahmoo Park is billed as a ‘battle of blues bands’ – but it’s not necessarily as competitive, or as combative, as that may sound. The main idea, according to the society’s Rod Dranfield, is to share the joys of the earthy, roots music style with as many people as possible in a day-long, familyfriendly, summer showcase. Along the way, judges will also help select a local band, and a solo or duo act, as White Rock’s representatives for the International Blues Challenge in Memphis in
January. The venue – contributed by Semiahmoo First Nation – couldn’t be better, Dranfield said. “It’s a beautiful park right by the sea,” he added. “It’s also across railroad tracks and right next to a graveyard (the site is home to a historic SFN burial site) – you don’t get much more blues than that!” Genuine Southern-style barbecue cooked up by food vendor Memphis Mike ought to add the perfect complement to a day of wailing blues, he added – although guests are also welcome to bring their own lunches, snacks and non-alcoholic beverages. Thirteen acts will vie to represent White Rock at this year’s International Blues Challenge in Mem-
phis, Tenn. Topping off the event will be a full performance by Chicago blues legend, Jimmy D. Lane. Competitors seeking the society’s sponsorship to attend the Memphis IBC include Harpdog Brown, the Jim Black Band, Arsen Shomakov, the Hell’s Gate Blues Band, McKinley Wolf, Gary Preston and Jimmy Zee. Looking for the nod in the solo/ duo category are Jesse Roper, Lonnie Glass, The Blues Baron, Nash Mcinnes and Murray Porter. Tickets are $20 at the gate, and children 12 and under, accompanied by an adult, can get in free. Tickets are available at tickets. surrey.ca, www.whiterockblues. com, Tapestry Music, Surfside Music, or by calling 604-542-6515.

Season still successful: Tritons coach Nick Greenizan Sports Reporter

on Leo Heaton still dreams of wrestling – literally. “Once in a while I have dreams that the match is ready to go on and they are calling me to the ring and I don’t have my shoes tied up or some silly damn thing,” Heaton says with a laugh. Heaton is seated on a chair in his Langley home. A wall in the nearby hallway shows him in his younger days, a strapping young man in wrestling trunks and boots. His waist is adorned with a championship belt, one of the many titles he won during his illustrious career. That was a long time ago. The pictures date back four, five, even six decades. Heaton, 84, retired from professional wrestling in 1980. And today (Friday), he is set to be honoured by All Star Wrestling at the Cloverdale
Fairgrounds. He is one of four – along with Ed ‘Moondog’ Moretti, Bob Steele and the late Roy McClarty – being recognized. ••• Heaton followed his father into professional wrestling. He grew up in Utah and remembers being as young as four or five years old and accompanying his father — who wrestled under the moniker Brother Jonathan — to professional bouts across North America. After high school, Heaton enlisted in the U.S. Navy, while also wresting semiprofessionally. In 1950 — at age 19 — he became a full-time wrestler. “The whole thing was exciting for me; it was something I had thought about ever since I was a young boy,” he said. Heaton wrestled mainly under the name Don Leo Jonathan, but also sometimes

He loved performing for an audience, whether he was playing the ‘good guy’ or the ‘heel’. “In Vancouver, I could do no harm (but) in Quebec City, I didn’t speak enough French,” he said with a chuckle. Back in his heyday, Heaton stood six-foot-six and weighed
320 pounds. He wrestled for 30 years, participating in more than 3,000 matches, securing numerous championships along the way, in several different wrestling associations. He still remembers a match in Montreal in 1952 where he wrestled for his first world championship title. “I was so excited, I didn’t even know it was going on,” Heaton recalled. ‘It never sank in until I was sitting on my step the next morning, and one of the guys walks by and says, ‘Hi, champ.’” Another highlight was fighting seven-foot-tall André the Giant back in the 1970s. Heaton was able to body slam his opponent — the 550-pounder would go on to be known as the Eighth Wonder of the World in later years, when he rose to fame in the World Wrestling Federation. Until that point, no one had been able to body slam the i see page 22

SUMMER HOURS: Mon-Fri 9am to 9pm Sat-Sun 9am to 6pm
A season after the White Rock Tritons ended a five-year stretch without qualifying for BC Premier Baseball League playoffs, the under-18 squad will again be on the sidelines when the post-season begins. But it wasn’t for lack of trying. The Peninsula crew started the season poorly, and had just two wins in their first 15 games, before rallying over the final six weeks to finish with an 16-28 win-loss record. They came within two games of securing the eighth and final playoff berth – and were one game away from, at the very least, forcing a do-ordie play-in game against the Abbotsford Cardinals for that final spot. Instead, they missed the post-season party after losing both ends of a doubleheader Sunday against the Cards, plus a game earlier in the week against the Langley Blaze. In the first game Sunday, Russ Smithson Abbotsford pitcher Carter coach Loewen threw a no-hitter, and in the second contest, a 3-1 loss, the Tritons gave up runs on a balk and an error. “We did everything that we possibly could, but we just couldn’t get in there,” White Rock head coach Russ Smithson said. “We just had a rough final week. We had two chances to beat Langley, and couldn’t do it. And against Abbotsford, we had the error, the balk. And in Game 1 (Loewen) just pitched a gem. We couldn’t touch him.” Though the season ended on a down note, the veteran coach refused to call the season a disappointment, instead pointing to the lateseason run his team went on, after starting with so many losses. “We didn’t have the most talented team, but they worked so hard. They battled their asses off every game,” Smithson said. “I still think it was a positive year – they never gave up.” The Tritons were beset by a handful of key injuries this season, too. First baseman Tom Melenchuk – one of the PBL’s top sluggers – missed the majority of the season with an elbow injury that required surgery, and against Abbotsford last weekend, Smithson’s lineup card was missing veterans Janssen Crossley and Jason Hill, who were out with injuries. The team called up six players from the U16 Junior Tritons as a result. i see page 23

i from page 21 Giant. “I had no doubts I could do it,” Heaton said. “I had slammed Haystacks Calhoun before that, and he was 602 pounds.” Slamming the Giant was quite the feat, but it also injured Heaton’s back, to the point that he had to retire in 1980. “That’s how I got hurt, saddling him up for a slam,” Heaton said. To this day, Heaton’s back is bothersome. “I have always said, if you want to dance, you have to pay the fiddler. For 30 years of glory, I got 30 years of misery,” he said, adding he has no regrets His career took him to Mexico, Europe, South Africa, Australia and Japan. Heaton also appeared in a handful of movies, including 1978’s Paradise Alley, which starred Sylvester Stallone In 2006, he was inducted into the Professional Wrestling Hall of Fame, and many of his biggest wrestling moments are documented in the book, Wrestling in the Canadian West, by author Vance Nevada, a promoter and wrestler himself.

Nine-year-old ballplayers end season with win
District title for White Rock A successful summer of baseball for a team of White Rock nineyear-olds ended with yet another win last weekend in Langley. The White Rock all-star squad cruised to a Little League BC District 3 championship last weekend, winning eight games in a row, including a 13-10 win over Whalley in the title game. Against Whalley, White Rock jumped out to a big, early 13-4 lead, with the pitching of Leif Friedrich and Sebastian Cazorla keeping the Whalley offence at bay. At the plate, the Peninsula crew received timely hits from Jordan Hounsell, Lucas Johnson, Landen Hilditch and Adam Folia. As the game progressed, White Rock’s bats cooled down, but a stout defence and more strong pitching – this time from Jackson Nadon and James Lawson – kept the team in front until the final out. Earlier the same day, White Rock

advanced to the championship game after knocking off Hastings (Vancouver) 14-3 in semifinal action. Grayson Frers started on the hill for White Rock in that contest, and catching Jett Carroll led the way with two hits. Logan Johnston and Dylan Garland also fared well at the plate, rounding out what assistant coach Todd Nadon called “a true team effort.”

2014 HYUNDAI SANTA FE XL 7 PASSENGER
Divers strong at nationals A handful of White Rock Divers took on some of the top young talent in the country last week, at Junior Elite National Championships in Edmonton. Carolyn MacFarlane was among the busiest divers at the event, competing in every event despite overcoming a recent bout of mononucleosis. MacFarlane – who is set to
dive next season at Princeton University – finished fifth in the girls ‘A’ platform event, and was just seven points shy of the bronze-medal position. She also finished ninth in the girls ‘A’ one-metre event, and was 13th overall in the three-metre discipline. As well, MacFarlane and Jessie Nowotny teamed up and placed eighth in the women’s
three-metre synchro competition. Two other White Rock Divers, Carlyn McNeely and Tavia Waiz, placed sixth in the three-metre synchro event, while also placing eighth and 15th, respectively, in the girls ‘A’ three-metre competition. In the one-metre event, Waiz was 18th overall, and McNeely 21st. – Nick Greenizan

ROBINSON, Nancy May (Nee Hawley) November 2, 1927- Madison, WI; July 18 - 2015 Calgary, AB Nancy May Robinson passed away peacefully on July 18, 2015 at the age of 87. Born November 2, 1927, Nancy grew up in Kingston, Ontario and entered Queen’s University at the young age of 16 where she earned a BA (Honours) in Biology (1948) and an MA in Biology (1949). She was fond of her youth in Kingston and she especially enjoyed Queen’s University where her father was a Department Head and where she met and later married her husband, Malcolm. Nancy and Malcolm raised a family of four in a variety of locales including Vancouver, BC, Port of Spain, Trinidad, Denver, Colorado, Calgary, Alberta and White Rock, BC. She had a particular love of the White Rock area where she coveted many friendships and experiences. She was active in the University Women’s Club in both Calgary and White Rock, the White Rock and South Surrey Naturalists Club and the B.C. Waterfowl Society. Nancy’s professional career commenced as a research assistant in the Atomic Energy of Canada Limited’s (AECL) Chalk River, Ontario facility where she conducted applied research in medical bacteriology. Later, during the 1960s in Calgary, she taught Zoology at Mt. Royal College. Following a move to the west coast, she taught at Douglas College in Surrey. Nancy was predeceased by her parents James Edwin and Gladys May Hawley, her brother Donald John Hawley, her husband, Malcolm Robinson, and she leaves behind in her legacy her caring children Wendy (Pat) McKay, Dave (Marilyn), Scott (Julie), and Bruce (Lydia) as well as loving grandchildren Tim (Charlene), Katie (Alex), Dillon, Lauren, Lindy, Leah, Logan and Halle along with great-grandchildren Liam and Bridgette. Many of Nancy’s fondest memories were spent exploring the diversity of the natural world, particularly the ocean areas of the West Coast with her family and friends, imparting her abundant wisdom of the wonders of nature. She also enjoyed traveling to unique areas and learning about indigenous people and eco-systems. She was a caring and proud mother to her children providing encouragement and support as they pursued their ambitions in life. “Now I know why you always asked me to be strong‌ because you knew that one day I would need the strength to bear your loss. I miss you mum.â€? Sincere appreciation is extended to the thoughtful and hardworking nurses, nurse assistants and other staff at Sarcee Carewest as well as to the staff of Millrise Place, where Nancy resided until two years ago. A private memorial will be held at a later date. “Do not stand by my grave and weep; I am not there, I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow – I am a diamond glint upon the snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain – I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awake in the morning hush – I am the swift uplifting rush of quiet birds in circling Ă ight. I am the soft starshine at night. Do not stand by my grave and cry – I am not there – I did not die.
