It has been almost nine years, but Aldergrove resident Davey Butorac has admitted to and apologized for killing Langley City sex trade worker Sheryl Lynn Koroll and Abbotsford prostitute Gwendolyn Lawton in 2007. In Supreme Court in New Westminster on Dec. 4, Butorac, 36, expressed remorse for his actions, through his lawyer, before being sentenced to life in prison with no chance of parole for 18 years. In joint submissions from Crown and his defense counsel, Butorac pleaded guilty to killing Lawton. The judge said he is to serve the two life sentences concurrently. He is getting credit for time served since his arrest in 2008 on a one-to-one basis, and will be eligible for parole in less than 18 years. “Mr. Butorac acknowledged, through his lawyer, having committed these offenses and he wants to obtain treatment to find out why he did what he did,” said Crown counsel Wendy Dawson. “His lawyer did say in respect to the Koroll murder, Mr. Butorac had extreme anger at the time.” No motive was ever revealed during his two trials by jury for killing Koroll. In court, Crown chose to drop a charge of second degree murder of Aldergrove resident Margaret Redford. Butorac was charged in 2010 with killing Redford, more than three years after her body was found in Bertrand Creek in Aldergrove. Her family, including her father and daughter, pleaded for the killer to come forward but it wasn’t until 2010 when DNA linked Butorac to the case, that he was charged with her murder. The Times sought comment from

the Redford family but has not received a response. Dawson said she has spoken to all three families. Butorac’s lawyer indicated he won’t appeal his sentences, as he did the first time he was convicted of the murders. DAVEY “He wants to B UTOR AC move forward and get on with his life,” said Dawson. Lack of motive is one of the aggravating factors Dawson spoke to in her submissions for sentencing. It has concerned the judge as well, she said. There has never been a psychological assessment of Butorac presented in court. His parents have written letters to the courts, saying he is a loving son. He has no criminal background and has never had any real employment. An acquaintance of Butorac’s testified that the pair would sometimes drive around and smoke pot. This year, he posted his profile on a dating website set up to cater exclusively to Canadian inmates. He said he was looking for someone to share a life with. Crown filed updated victim impact statements and the judge commented on the effect these murders have had on the families, said Dawson. Continued Page 5

Santa

writes back Santa and his elves are hard at work in the Langley Canada Post depot writing letters to thousands of boys and girls MONIQUE TAMMINGA Times Reporter

Santa’s workshop is a busy place these days, with letters to Old Saint Nick coming in by the sack full at the Langley Canada Post depot. Santa and his elves will spend every day from now until Dec. 22 putting pen to paper and writing to every boy and girl who send letters to Santa Claus at the North Pole. Last year, more than 15,000 letters were written to Santa, arriving through the mail to the Langley Canada Post Office on Production Way, said head elf Don Campbell, a retired Canada Post employee. Across Canada, 1.5 million letters were sent to Santa last year. This country may be the only one in the world that provides the service, free of charge. While most communication takes place online these days, children across Canada still like sending a letter (which requires no postage), the old fashioned way, finding that is the most exciting way to reach Santa, said Campbell. After all, getting a hand-written letter from the big guy is pretty special, compared to a return email, noted Campbell. All the elves who help Santa are retired postal employees. They spend hours a day writing replies. “I just got a letter today from a boy who asked for a gift for Children’s Hospital first and if there was anything left, he would take a toy car,” said Santa, a.k.a. Bruce Mavis, a longtime Langley resident who has

dressed in the big red suit, volunteering to write letters from Santa for the past 22 years. He said being Santa has brought him a lot of joy over the years. “There are some really good kids out there. I’ve had so many great letters this year, not asking for too much, usually just one or two things.” Some letters come with nickels, others with drawings and stickers. Kids want to know about Rudolph and Mrs. Claus. Sometimes the letters bring tears to the elves’ and Santa’s eyes. “One letter last year I received from a young child who said his grandmother was raising all six of them by herself and none of the kids got a visit from Santa,” said retired Canada Post employee/elf Kathy Burry. The group of volunteers made sure those kids got a visit from Santa that year. Sometimes children write to Santa about a parent who is dying or share some other trauma in their lives. Those letters are passed on to a special Santa in Vancouver who is trained to write back with an appropriate reply. Mavis loves getting letters from parents who share that this is their baby’s first Christmas. “Those letters I often will send a personal message to, writing and welcoming the baby to the world,” Mavis said. They also get hundreds of letters from kids from Taiwan who are practicing their English by sending a letter. They often ask

for maple leaves. The elves try each year to find fake ones to send or maple leaf stickers. Santa and his postal elves write replies from Santa until Dec. 22, then return in the New Year to write back to all the latecomers. Those kids get a postcard with a picture of Santa at the beach beach. “Even Santa needs a vacation,” joked Campbell.

will confirm our contribution to the economy of Langley,” said current museum chairperson Bruce Bakker. “The museum is now in a position to move forward with the opportunity the Township has provided them,” mayor Jack Froese said. Langley Regional Airport manager Guy Miller said the relocation of the flight museum to the new site will benefit both museum and airport operations. The museum currently operates out of a leased 7,000-square -foot space in a hangar at the airport, with no room to expand. It houses more than 25 aircraft, five in flying condition. A preliminary estimate has put the cost of construction of the new museum at w$2 million. A Township staff report to council said all the costs of construction and the relocation of the many classic aircraft will be borne by the museum. According to the report, the Township plans to lease the property to the museum for a dollar a year. It currently leases its airport space for about $15,000 a year. The museum was founded in 1977 and originally operated in Surrey. It moved to Langley in 1996.

Blows to head killed Langley victim From Page 1

Butorac’s lawyer filed letters of support from his family. His mother and sister have attended every time he has been in court. In April, a B.C. Supreme Court jury found Butorac guilty of murdering Koroll. This was the second time Butorac had been convicted of the murder. In 2010, a jury found Butorac guilty of the second-degree murder of Lawton, whose body was found March 2007 in Abbotsford. He was also convicted at the same trial of second-degree murder in Koroll’s death. A judge sentenced him to life in prison with a no chance of parole for 23 years. Butorac appealed the convictions, and won new and separate trials. Koroll was a smallframed woman who cared for her elderly parents. The court learned she had been addicted to heroin and crack cocaine for 20 years and had been a prostitute for a similar length of time. Surveillance footage was seized by police at the concrete plant where Koroll’s body was found. It showed the suspect’s vehicle to be a light-coloured older Cavalier with a sunroof, roof rack and tire treads showed it had BF Goodrich tires. Homicide investigators narrowed the pos-

sibility of that make, model and year of car, with a roof rack and sunroof, down to seven in B.C. All seven were examined, with Butorac’s the last to be scrutinized The jury heard about

DNA matching Koroll’s found inside Butorac’s car, in his trunk and on his only pair of Vans shoes. Five blows to the head killed Koroll, according to evidence presented at his two trials.

Crews dig up new water pipe line in front of D.W. Poppy Secondary Repairs to will take about another month to complete, council told DAN FER GUSON Tim es Reporter

Crews have torn up the road in front of D.W. Poppy Secondary School in order to locate leaks in the new East Langley Water Supply pipeline. “This leak detection work is labour intensive and requires excavation along the length of the pipe to inspect the joints,” says the latest project update from the Township engineering division to council, filed on Nov. 26. The leaky section of pipe will also need cleaning and disinfecting before it is commissioned, the report says. The work on 52 Avenue, between 236 Street and 240 Street, is expected to take about another month. The rest of the 14 kilometre long pipeline has passed pressure tests. The update says all work on the line should wrap up next month, with service

Crews are working to fix a section of leaky water pipe in front of D.W. Poppy Secondary School between 236 Street and 240 Street on 52 Avenue. beginning in February. “The project is currently on track to fall

within the approved budget,” the report says.

Leaks were first uncovered during pressure testing of the line east of 248 Street. A July memo to council said the pipeline manufacturer “advised of quality control issues necessitating replacement of some sections (of pipe).” Township planners expect the East Langley Water Supply will bring an end to the severe watering restrictions that east Langley residents and businesses have faced during summer months to avoid depleting the aquifers. Work on the water pipeline got underway in May 2013. The $33.5 million pipeline is the biggest project ever undertaken by the Township of Langley’s engineering department. Problems with terrain, leaky pipes and other unexpected issues have seen the completion date moved back several times from its original date in 2014.

Langley boy brings bear necessities to 25 baby bruins MO N I Q U E TA M M I N G A Ti m e s Re po r t e r

An 11-year-old Langley boy has made it his mission to help fatten up the more than two dozen orphaned baby bears that have arrived at Critter Care’s wildlife rehabilitation facility. Justin Moonie read about Critter Care’s plight, having taken in more bear cubs this year than they can handle and the volunteer-run centre needing help to feed all those hungry mouths. Justin decided to enlist the help of his peers at Glenwood Elementary. He made posters to hang in the hallways, he asked the secretary to send out an email to all the families asking for fruit and vegetable donations, he spoke to his class about the need for food and his classmates rallied together. They managed to get three large boxes of apples, salmon and oranges in one week. Justin delivered that food to Critter Care on Dec. 4. “We dropped off the food and the volunteers were so thankful,” said Justin’s mom, Kelly. “Just as we were off-loading the fruit from our car, a conservation officer arrived with another baby black bear in a crate.” That’s when Justin realized that this one donation of food will probably be eaten up in a day. The Grade 6 student dropped off more boxes of food on Wednesday and plans to try to take donations there weekly. He is also talking to some grocery stores to see if he can pick up any discarded fruits and vegetables. Justin is making a public plea to the community and to all students who want to help, to donate berries, nuts, fruit and salmon. Critter Care founder Gayle Martin said they have been touched by the outpouring of support. In her 30 years of rescuing injured and orphaned B.C. wildlife, she has never seen this many black bear cubs. It is mostly due to the dry summer bringing less berries and the wildfires diminishing their food supply and habitat. Critter Care can be reached at 604-5302054.

KELLY MOONIE con tributed ph oto

Justin Moonie, 11, showed up to Critter Care wildlife centre on Wednesday with his second round of donated food for the 25 bear cubs in the Langley rehabilitation centre’s care. He hopes everyone will continue to help feed the malnourished and underweight black bears that arrived in Langley.

Extending the giving season There is no shortage of opportunities for Langley residents to show their charitable side this holiday season. Whether it’s a shelter, looking to provide meals and clothing for the homeless, a food bank trying to fill the cupboards of low-income families and individuals, or an animal shelter issuing a desperate plea for help to feed hungry bear cubs, the need is evident and it seems to be never-ending. This is the time of year when people tend to dig a little bit deeper to support many worthy causes. It’s the season of giving, and that’s a good thing, because it’s also the season during which want is most keenly felt. That’s why agencies such as the Langley Christmas Bureau resume their work each autumn and volunteers for the Salvation Army once more take their places, manning Christmas kettles outside Langley stores. These, and other seasonal efforts, play a crucial role in helping to ensure people with limited means have, at minimum, a hearty meal and a gift or two to unwrap. But once the lights have been taken down, the tree chipped and the last hot turkey sandwich eaten, we have a tendency to return to our daily routine and think less often about neighbours who may be scraping by. It’s a constant struggle for food banks, for example, where each Thanksgiving and Christmas — and perhaps at Easter — they see a jump in donations, but are forced to make do for much of the year, when donations slow to a trickle. The remedy for our collective forgetfulness might be something as simple as a note on each calendar page or arranging a regular pre-paid contribution, via credit card or post-dated cheques. It makes sense from both a budgeting point of view — smaller regular payments, versus a large lump sum at a time of year when finances are already strained — and in terms of helping the organizations that many depend upon, year-round, to avoid the cycle of feast or famine.

So we can only assume that any time Gary came for a visit, those cookies were on the plate by his coffee. I threw a toonie in the box and bought that book. It seemed just too much of a treasure to throw in a dumpster. We all have a special recipe for our Christmas. The concerts we go to, the type and size of tree we get, who we send cards to, who we phone, when we decorate and how much we spend. We know when to mix in other people and who we can blend with whom. Some people are always a bit too sweet and others too sour. Some are tasteful and others leave a bad taste in our mouth. The trick is not to have too much of either one. We all remember that perfect Christmas and how great everyone felt and it seems we try to re-create it every year. But, unlike the enduring, faded notes in those old cook books, the ingredients of our Christmases change from year to year. Some old ones are not there anymore and it seems new ones are always being added. Just keep it all at an even temperature and don’t let it boil over. At least that’s what McGregor says.

Don’t let fear get in way of doing what is right Editor: The Syrians are coming. Those of us with open minds will welcome them into our country and our communities. This is the Canadian way; our ancestors all came from some somewhere else, even our aboriginal peoples. For those Canadians who do not want non-Europeans to come here, consider this: DNA research shows that the ancestors of all Europeans spent thousands of years in central Asia, in places like Kazakhstan, before migrating westward into Europe. Later there were other migrations into Europe from the Middle East. I myself, who always thought I was 100 per cent British/ Irish, have four per cent Middle Eastern (Turkish) genes. There are no “races” in our species; we are all cousins of each other. Let’s welcome these people with open hearts and not let fear and unfounded prejudices get in the way of doing what is right.

Some reservations over rush to welcome refugees Editor: While I to believe in the necessity of immigrants, in particular refuges, I have some concerns regarding the shift in our rush to allow anyone in the county that can be classified as a refugee, some seeking safe haven anywhere it is presented. In the past 120 years, immigration was solicited from countries that could contribute to the makeup of Canada, the Italians who came built what is now Toronto, the Greeks added their unique skills to the country’s needs. In my birthplace of Winnipeg the displaced peoples from the ruins of the Second World War helped build the city from a sleepy prairie town to a centre of business and agriculture. As to Ms. Goodyear’s contention of expending upwards of $40,000 per year per family on the latest influx — it is a stunning statement. That $40,000 is my tax dollars, monies that are desperately needed for Canadians in dire need. We need to get our house in order before

Really, your bliss would not be possible had it not been for a sharp-eyed four year old. I think the ‘real’ thanks should go to the child who found it and brought it to mom’s attention. Your soggy ribboned medal was found shortly after Remembrance Day in the parking lot of the child’s school —Pathway Montessori. Located in the basement of St. Andrews United church in Fort Langley. The pair brought it to teachers’ attention in hopes of finding the rightful owner. We knew this was important and the owner would be dearly missing it. Thinking that the owner may be a church member, that was our next course of action...and then Langley RCMP was notified. We applaud you, Mr. Doyharcabal, for your service and for honouring your elders’ service. Thank you for sharing your story with the readers. We are all happy your medal found you.

I have no doubt there is validity in Ms. Goodyear’s statement that refuges will become contributing members of society, I only questions as what. We do not make homes out of bricks made from sand, we do have some cottage industries making pots and copper items. I worked in Yemen and in my trips outside of Aden saw no evidence of enterprise, the local peoples had very few skills applicable to the needs of Canada. Same for Syrians. Training will take more of my tax money — again, something that should be offered to our current unemployed peoples. TERRY BRENAN,

Editor: Re: Staff at Surgical floor 2 North, Langley Memorial Hospital I recently had occasion to spend a few days at LMH. I observed the staff helping all of the patients with compassion and dedication. I wish to say a very big thank you to nursing supervisor Kendall, head nurse Theresa, Sara Brown, Laana, Harman Sidhu, Christine and Dr. St. John. So much is said about the negative aspects of a hospital stay and so a little appreciation for those wonderful nurses, doctors and their assistants who give their attention daily to those of us who are hospitalized. As a senior and a veteran it is very refreshing to see younger people so dedicated and so passionate in their chosen careers. You made my stay comfortable and relaxing. Thank you very much. VIC RURKA,

Harry Hunt, an Aldergrove man who was dedicated to sports, youth, and his community, has been commemorated through a playing field named in his honour. The field behind the us help. Aldergrove Kinsmen Community Centre at 26770 29 Ave., was officially dedicated as the Harry Hunt Field on Dec. 6, during a celebration of life held by his family and friends and attended by members of Township of Langley Council. Harry, a photographer and long-time contributor to The Times’ sister paper, the Aldergrove Star, passed away on Nov. 7 after decades of being deeply involved in the community. “Harry was one of those people whom everybody knew,” said Mayor Jack Froese. 3/17/2015 4:06:44 PM “No matter what you were doing in Aldergrove — at a sporting event, at the ice rink, taking in Fair Days, or

He also pursued his love of photography and for more than 25 years, Harry and his camera were familiar fixtures at local sports and community events. Harry’s dedication to the community earned him numerous awards, including the Hilda Reddick Volunteer of the Year Award and the Aldergrove Agricultural Association’s Centennial Award for the top farmer in the area.

Performers Aaron Pritchett and Chad Brownlee, as well as special guest Dallas Smith, and of course, Santa Claus, will be at the Langley Events Centre on Dec. 13. They are gathering for the annual Basics for Babies FUNdraising Day. The event runs from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. and is by donation. Basics for Babies is a partnership with Food Banks BC to ensure that all babies in the Lower Mainland get the nutrition they need. Basics for Babies was created in 1994 when 93.7 JRfm recognized that there was a chronic shortage of baby products at Lower Mainland food banks. With the help of several Lower Mainland sponsors and partners, more than $2 million has been raised, as well as hundreds of thousands of pounds of diapers, baby food, formula, pabulum and other items have been collected.

Police warn of U.S.-based timeshare scam Langley RCMP has become aware of another scam that has the potential to cost unsuspecting victims thousands of dollars. A Langley resident was contacted by someone indicating they represented an American agency (out of Georgia) wanting to assist with the sale of his timeshare in Mexico. The timeshare owner participated in a series of phone calls and emails with representatives of the agency and finally agreed to have the company sell his timeshare. The agency contacted the victim with the good news — they had found a prospective buyer in Mexico. He was advised that he would have to pay the resort a fee to transfer the ownership. This fee was nearly $13,000 and he was told that all funds changing hands in the transaction would be held in trust through a third company based

in Louisiana, said police. The Georgia agency would take only a five per cent finder’s fee as payment for their services. The money was wired to a bank in

Mexico. Langley RCMP said red flags only started appearing when the agency contacted the victim recently, asking for a Mexican tax and investor fee of more

than $20,000. He contacted his bank to try to reverse the transfer of funds but was not successful, said police. “This particular victim conducted his

own research on the internet into both the agency who contacted him and the trust company that would hold the funds,” said Cpl. Holly Largy. “The companies

appeared to be legitimate, and very well may be. “Unfortunately, it is likely the individuals our victim dealt with were not employed by that company at all,

and only pretended to be.” Langley RCMP ask that anyone else who has been approached about this timeshare scam contact police at 604-532-3200.

Kruger named Stafford Good Citizen Of the Year Award winner cited for support of local groups and organizations through volunteering, donations, sponsorships and leadership

D AN FERGU SO N Ti m e s Re po r t e r

Milt Kruger had no idea he was being considered for the Greater Langley Chamber of Commerce H.D. Stafford Good Citizen of the Year award until his name was called Tuesday night at the Chamber’s Christmas dinner meeting. “I’m not often speechless,” Kruger told The Times. “There’s a lot of people who certainly deserve recognition. I’m not sure why I stood out.” The award honours the memory of Harold Stafford by recognizing individuals who contribute time, resources and knowledge to make a difference in the community and affect change for the greater good.

Since he founded On Line Collision in 1990, Kruger, a self-described “habitual volunteer” has supported a wide range of worthy causes through volunteering, donations, sponsorships and leadership. The list is a long one that includes the On Line Collision Playground Initiative; the Langley School District Foundation; Greater Langley Chamber of Commerce; BC Chamber of Commerce; Langley Memorial Hospital Foundation; Operation Red Nose; Langley Minor Sports; Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation; Big Brothers and Big Sisters of Canada; BC Children’s Hospital; Langley Seniors Society; Langley 2010 BC Summer Games and Langley 2014 BC Senior Games.

Metro real estate prices predicted to keep climbing JEF F N AGEL Bl ack Pre s s

New real estate forecasts predict Lower Mainland housing prices will continue their ascent to new highs over the next two years. Central 1 Credit Union projects resale median residential prices of Greater Vancouver homes will climb 6.1 per cent in 2016 and 3.8 per cent in 2017. Senior economist Bryan Yu says detached houses are becoming “luxury” real estate as “prices that far outpace income affordability fundamentals” increasingly put them out of reach of large portions of the population. He estimates detached house prices will continue to run up faster —10 per cent in 2016 and 6.6 per cent in 2017. Although there may be “some froth” in detached house prices, Yu expects the growing price gap between houses and condos — now at a record $525,000 in Metro — will continue to widen.

That widening price gap will be “difficult if not impossible to bridge” for prospective new buyers and recent condo owners and will effectively be the new norm. “In previous years, the housing ladder meant starting in a condo and transitioning to a detached home,” Yu said. “That will no longer be the trend. For most families, the housing ladder will lead from one multi-family unit to another.” Increasingly scarce land is a reality of the region’s geography that’s hemmed in by the ocean, mountains, U.S. border and the Agricultural Land Reserve, he said. His report says the trend of double-digit price gains shows little sign of stopping given a severe shortage of inventory in Metro Vancouver and limited land availability for low-density construction. “Price momentum has also spilled into the neighbouring Fraser Valley area,” Yu said.

Continued record low interest rates and economic and job growth will continue to drive sales and further price momentum in Greater Vancouver through 2016, he added. In the Fraser Valley, the average residential price is projected to have climbed 9.7 per cent to $568,000 this year, up from about $518,000 in 2014, and it’s projected to gain four per cent to $591,000 in 2016. Many consumers have been forced to alter their housing expectations, especially near the urban core, the BCREA report says. It notes City of Vancouver detached houses make up just five per cent of the total housing stock in Metro Vancouver and those house prices should not be used as a benchmark for affordability in the region. And the report argues many detached houses are really in effect duplexes, triplexes or fourplexes “as a result of the exploding number of accessory suites.”

Go karting for a good cause GARY AH U J A Ti m e s Re po r t e r

Feel the need for speed? Then a Langley business wants to see you out at the race track next week. Fast Track Karting is offering a free go kart race to anyone willing to make either a cash donation or the donation of a non-perishable food item. “In a nutshell, it is a free race, but it is all by donation,” said Jose Perez, a sales rep for Fast Track Karting.

“You come with a donation and you get a chance to go for a spin and it all goes to a good cause. “We came up with this idea, Speed for Need.” The event runs on Wednesday, Dec. 16 from 5 to 7 p.m. with one donation netting one free ride. Proceeds from the event will go to the Langley Christmas Bureau and the Sources Food Bank. “After seeing all the peo-

ple lined up at the food bank, hopefully this is a success. That would be fantastic,” Perez said. “If we get a lot of people, we get a lot of donations.” Up to a dozen karts can go on the adult track — riders must be at least 56 inches tall — while the junior track — minimum 48 inches tall — allows four karts per race. Both tracks are indoor. Fast Track Karting is located at 5760 Production Way. GA RY A HUJ A Langley Time s

Fast Track Karting owners Dave Hik (left) and Ryan Fischer are opening up their business for a couple of hours of free racing on Dec. 16.

‘Being hands on is how we learn best’ The University of the Fraser Valley Agricultural Centre of Excellence will now be known as the Otter Co-op Cold Barn. The recognition is to thank Otter Co-op for supporting the university’s agricultural programs through a $75,000 donation of funds and in-kind donations. The funding is being used to help build and outfit barn facilities on the UFV Chilliwack campus. Otter Co-op general manager Jack Nicholson said that as a co-operative, his organization’s values include investing in the community and supporting sustainable initiatives. “Supporting UFV’s Agriculture programs is right in line with our values,” he said. Otter Co-op’s support of UFV Agriculture includes a cash donation towards capital costs of outfitting

SELLING YOUR HOME

NEW HOME DEVELOPMENT “Good photography is vital today in the marketing of Real Estate… good pictures can make the difference on how many people will actually come out and look at it in person.”

From pictures to price, avoid these mistakes when selling your home

hen you walk into an apartment building, home or business, you will instinctively pick up on the level of cleanliness, which includes smells, dust, and debris. Setting your house up for sale adheres to the same senses and essentially entails bringing strangers into your space and enticing them to picture their life there. The small details can make a big difference when selling your home, and there are a few simple tips to avoid making a mistake that could ruin your chances of a sale.

By Nicolle Hodges

“[Homeowners] should spend the time to prepare the property to make it look as good as it can, and spend some time [educating] themselves on prevailing market conditions.” says Bruce Robinson, Partner at Hugh & McKinnon Realty. “The biggest mistake I see is that the property is not ready; the landscaping is overgrown [and] not well kept, you get past that to see the paint peeling off the front door, you get inside to see a lot of old furniture and ‘stuff,’ and then you get the bad odour which really can be a turnoff for the buyer.” A new homebuyer won’t want to feel that they are purchasing a fixer-upper, so disrepair and disorder are to be avoided at all costs. This doesn’t mean that every

room needs to look like a magazine spread, but there should be a sense of consistency. Consider hiring a professional to stage the home. Setting up a house for sale is hard work, and then there is finding that perfect price point to accompany it. Take a look at other properties that are for sale in your area, and keep your pricing demands realistic by consulting with multiple agents on what they would recommend. “The primary reason a home does not

sell is price,” says Robinson. “Any property will sell if the price is commensurate with the size, location and unique characteristics of a home. Most people will say ‘location, location, location,’ however if you are above what the market is willing to pay even the best location won’t sell.” Robinson adds that you’ll know your house is at the right price if you get activity; people coming to look and people making offers. You will never trick someone into buying

your home. You may be able to lure them in or intrigue them with fancy photos, but if those photos don’t match what they see when they show up, they may feel misled and distrust the sale before walking through the door. The only things worse than photos of poor quality - blurry, dark, or taken at odd angles - are those that are heavily edited. Look at your home from a buyer’s perspective and check the listing online to make sure that the photos represent the space accurately. You wouldn’t see a company using a blurry photo to advertise a product, so avoid posting blurry or indecipherable photos online when trying to sell your home. “Good photography is vital today in the marketing of Real Estate,” says Robinson. “Just about everyone looking to buy or who is in the business uses the internet to shop, [so] good pictures can make the difference on how many people will actually come out and look at it in person.” The posted photographs should be upto-date and show a potential buyer how a house would look if viewed today. When selling your home, pictures need to say more than a thousand words - they need to reflect your price. Make sure what you’re saying is worth it.

Stampeders crowned champs Langley football team combines explosive offence with stingy defence to capture midget provincial title for first time in Langley Minor Football history GARY AH U J A Ti m e s Spo r t s

The old adage goes that defence wins championships, and the Langley Stampeders rode a dominant defence all the way to a provincial midget football title. With heavy winds wreaking havoc on the field — the goal posts had to be realigned twice and the power went out in the third quarter — the Stampeders used a strong ground game to overpower the Victoria Spartans 19-1 in the B.C. community football midget provincial championship game on Sunday night at McLeod Athletic Park. McLeod Athletic Park hosted the various provincial finals for all of the age groups that day. “I know it is a cliche, (but) they played as a team and won as a team,” said Langley coach Keith Pickett. “The boys really gelled together.” In Sunday’s championship final, the Victoria visitors took an early 1-0 lead after they scored a single off a missed field goal. Langley’s offence got on track in the second quarter as the offensive line came alive, punching big holes in the Spartan defence which running back Devin Dacosta took advantage of by rushing for a pair of scores. The Stamps two touchdown drives sandwiched a single point they scored on a kickoff with the wind at their backs, the ball went sailing through the back of the end zone. Nolan McMurchy had the only points of the second half on a third-quarter field goal. “Defence wins champion-

ships and when you only allow one point, it makes it a lot easier on the offence,” Pickett said. The coach said the team’s defensive co-ordinator, Andrew Harder, was a huge plus for the team. “We had a phenomenal defensive co-ordinator; his defence and insight really spurred that on.”

I know it is a cliche (but) they played as a team and won as a team. D A N FE R GUS ON Langley Time s

KEITH PICKETT

This was the Stampeders third straight year in the championship final, but the first time they were able to deliver the title. During the regular season, Langley was 9-1, out-scoring their foes 344-39. Their points scored were the highest in the league, while they were also the stingiest defensively and Langley hadn’t lost since the second week of the season. Altogether, the team won its final eight regular season games as well as three playoff games to finish 12-1 for 2015. And while Pickett knew the team had talent, he said the goal was to make the playoffs

Pickett has coached through the ranks of Langley Minor Football ranks for a dozen years and has had two of his current players — who are ages 16, 17 and 18 — since they were in flag football. And the core of the team has had success along the way, losing the peewee provincial final but bouncing back to win the bantam title at that age group. The Stampeders will graduate 11 of their 39 players. ••• To register for the 2016 football season, call 604-533-2909 or email info@langleyfootball. ca.

Rams coach steps down PUBLIC AUCTION OUTSTANDING COLLECTION OF

Khari Joseph named new Langley junior football coach

GARY AH U J A Ti m e s Spo r t s

After five seasons at the helm — which included two league championships and a pair of runner-up finishes — Langley Rams head coach Jeff Alamolhoda has stepped down. “I didn’t agree with the direction the organization was heading and I felt that would be too much on my family and myself if they continued to go in this direction,” he told The Times. “This is why I stepped away.” Alamolhoda informed the Rams of his decision last September. The original plan was for him to remain involved with the organization as a member of the board of directors. And while Alamolhoda is well versed in the football side of things, he doesn’t have a background in the business side of the sport, and that caused some tension, said Rams president Dana Matheson. In Alamolhoda’s five years with Langley, the Rams went 32-17-1 in B.C. Junior Football

Aldergrove’s Amy Potomak is among the 23 players who will suit up for Canada at the 2016 IIHF U18 women’s world hockey championships next month. The championships run Jan. 8 to 15 in St. Catharines, Ont. and the final roster was released on Monday (Dec. 7). “The depth of talent at this age group is very impressive, and players have provided plenty of impressive performances throughout the journey from August camp through to U18 nationals,” said Canadian head coach Lisa Haley. “All of these players have the right combination of skills and intangibles that we believe are es-

sential in competing for a world championship on home soil.” The 16-year-old Potomak currently plays for the Pursuit of Excellence Hockey Academy in Kelowna. She was named the most valuable player at the national women’s U18 hockey championships last month after helping Team BC win bronze. “We’ve seen the players’ growth and development from selection camp, against the U.S., with their club teams, and most recently at nationals; we believe they’ll be ready to compete for a gold medal in St. Catharines,” said Melody Davidson, the general manager of the national women’s team programs.

Three members of the Langley Saints varsity AA football team were recognized for their outstanding seasons with all-star awards. Offensive lineman Ross Baykey, receiver Max Joseph and linebacker Isaiah Okoli were named provincial all-stars at the B.C. high school football banquet last week.

FVRA Frost Bite’s Ila Mould steals a quick glance at the ring during U10 action at the 10th annual Michelle Vandale Memorial Spirit of Winter Ringette Tournament over the weekend.

Bring out the bears Hockey fans are invited to litter the ice — with Teddy Bears, of course — to celebrate the Langley Rivermen’s first goal of the game tomorrow (Saturday) night at the Langley Events Centre as the junior A hockey club celebrates Teddy Bear Toss night. The Rivermen are hosting the Salmon Arm Silverbacks, with puck drop at 6 p.m. The stuffed animals will be collected and donated to the Christmas Bureau. One person who won’t be scoring the goal which will trigger the cascade of teddy bears will be Langley’s Justin Fregona. Fregona, who leads the Rivermen with 19 goals in 29 games, will not be returning to the team until after the holiday break after making the final roster for the Canada West team at the World Junior A Challenge. He will be joined on the roster by Rivermen goaltender Bo Didur and Chilliwack Chiefs defenceman Dennis Cholowski. Cholowski is from Langley. The trio were in Camrose, Alta. for training camp, which began on Sunday. The roster was announced on Tuesday. The six-team WJAC begins this weekend (Dec. 13) and runs until Dec. 19. It is being co-hosted by Cobourg and Whitby, Ont.

Langley’s Sydni Kemper is off to Grand Canyon University in the fall on a softball scholarship. The teen had received three scholarship offers but chose the Phoenix university. “They have a very structured system when it comes to how they run their team and, after talking with all three (coaches), I felt like I already knew what was expected of me

without question. “They are all very enthusiastic about the game and I feel like my years at GCU are going to be some of my best.” Kemper pitched this past season for the Ridge Meadows Pride 2000 and Synergy Gold U18. She accepted the verbal offer from Grand Canyon University last month.

Record night for TWU Complete Champion’s event The annual Spartan Foundation’s Complete Champions event once again surpassed fundraising records for the Trinity Western University Spartans. The November 26 reception, which was held at the Cascades Ballroom at the Langley Coast Hotel & Convention Centre, raised a record $225,000 for Spartan student-athletes. The seventh Annual Complete Champions reception, which featured Vancouver Canucks Coach, Willie Desjardins, as guest speaker, exceeded this year’s goal of $160,000 (net) and topped last year’s total by nearly $80,000. The event, which is hosted by the Spartan Foundation, is entirely focused on raising funds for the TWU Spartans Athletics program and the Complete Champion Approach with the intention to impact student-athlete lives. “We are so encouraged that this corporate fundraising event continues to grow and gain momentum each year to help the teams and athletes,” said Steve Scholz, executive director of the Spartan Foundation. “We feel extremely blessed by the support from our corporate sponsors, table sponsors and donors who contributed to our matching fund, as well as those who donated on the day of the event. It is exciting to invest and help student-athletes grow and develop today, as one day, they will be our future leaders.” The lunch featured Vancouver Canucks Head Coach, Willie Desjardins, as the guest speaker, who left the crowd of nearly 350 with some good leadership and coaching nuggets. ••• A pair of one-goal losses saw the Fraser Valley Thunderbirds win streak come to an end after four games. The Thunderbirds lost 5-4 in both games against the Greater Vancouver Canadians at the Abbotsford Recreation Centre over the weekend. In both games, Fraser Valley was tied in the third period, only to see the Canadians strike for the winner both times. The Thunderbirds fell to 10-8-4 on the season. Langley’s Jonathan Rees had one goal in the first game while Kaelen

Anderson scored once in the second contest. Another Langley player, Liam Visram, had one assist in each game. Fraser Valley has a home-and-home series with the Vancouver

Northwest Giants this weekend, including Sunday morning at the ARC. ••• Three third-period goals helped the Trinity Western Spartans head

into the holiday break on a winning note. The Spartans hockey team defeated the Selkirk Saints 4-2 last week (Dec. 4) at the Langley Events Centre, improving TWU to 7-2-

0-1 and just one point back of the first-place Saints (8-3-0-0) for top spot in the B.C. Intercollegiate Hockey League. The score was tied at one after 40 minutes before Kaleb Denham,

Blair Murphy and Dirk de Waal scored in the final frame. The Spartans Ryan Bakken had opened the scoring. Silas Matthys made 34 saves for the victory.

The Spartans will travel to the U.S. to play a pair of NCAA foes — the University of Wisconsin and the University of Nebraska-Omaha — on Jan. 1 and 2.

smoothly thanks to the efficient nine-speed tranny. Curvy stretches were taken in the Coupe’s easy stride straightened out by a crackerjack suspension that fought the natural physical tendency for a projectile to roll very well. Standard is the ‘dynamic select’ drive mode system which alters the throttle, steering and transmission. It switches, via the turn of a knob, easily between the settings ‘comfort,’ sport,’ ‘slippery (yes, you read that right,’ and ‘individual’. The diesel version, kitted with the optional sport package, adds suspension control to the system. The 450 and 63 S trims get the air suspension as standard, and add a ‘sport+’ setting. An ‘intelligent drive’ package adds such safety features as adaptive cruise control with steering assist, blind spot assist and active lane keeping assist. In a cruise control setting, steering assist is activated and that allows the car to drive autonomously for short distances. It gets nervous if you take your hands off the wheel for too long and prompts you to get a grip! As might be expected, the various modes and style of driving will have a varying effect on fuel consumption. As a guide, constant comfort mode us will likely produce a fuel economy of around 10.4/8.2 L/100 km (city/ highway) with the diesel and 13.6/10.2 L/100 km (city/ highway) in the 450. Cabin styling is classy as you would expect. Up front, the seating is comfy and gripping in the turn and operationally it is definitely user friendly. The Coupe’s rakish design does affect the rear passenger room but I suspect it’s more perception that reality in that your head is closer to the roof that traditional boxy sport utes but it’s not bouncing off the roof when jumping the bumps! There’s 650 litres of cargo space, which expands to 1,720 with the rear seats folded. And there’s more enough room in my life to take in Fogo Island again, given half a chance.

driveway Volvo Cars debuts the S90 luxury sedan Volvo Cars recently debuted the highly anticipated Volvo S90 luxury sedan in Gothenburg on the heels of the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s award-winning Volvo XC90 SUV. The all-new Volvo S90 sedan is a bold entry into the luxury sedan market and sets a new standard with superior materials, technology, comfort and class-leading semi-autonomous features. The Volvo S90 will combine Scandinavian design with cutting-edge safety and cloud-based applications and services. The interior makes use of the Sensus Connect touchscreen that debuted in the XC90, providing a clutter-free interior with minimal dashboard buttons. Three engine choices will be available worldwide: the award-winning four-cylinder, 2.0 liter turbocharged and supercharged T6 engine, the turbocharged T5 variant and the clean and powerful T8 Twin Engine plug-in hybrid. The S90 will follow a legacy of strong sedan sales for Volvo Cars in the North America. Over the last several years, Volvo sedans have enjoyed significant demand at launch, with the last luxury sedan outselling robust competitors in its segment.

A segment-exclusive compressed natural gas/propane gaseous fuel prep package is available for 5.0-litre V8-equipped F-150 – helping reduce operating costs and tailpipe CO2 emissions. “The 2016 Ford F-150 is a great example of the environmental leadership that can, and should, be accomplished in the immensely popular pickup field,” said Ron Cogan, editor and publisher, Green Car Journal and CarsOfChange.com. “Milestone lightweighting through the extensive use of aluminum and high-strength steel, the availability of a powerful and efficient 2.7-litre EcoBoost V6, and a segment-exclusive gaseous fuel prep option that enables the F-150 to run on clean-burning compressed natural gas or propane are all important contributions that raise the bar in environmental performance.” Ford F-150 uses sustainable materials to help reduce its environmental footprint. REPREVE fiber, made from recycled plastic bottles, is available for F-150’s cloth seats. By using this recycled material, Ford will divert more than 5 million plastic bottles from landfills this year. Other eco-conscious materials employed include rice hulls to reinforce plastic used in an electrical harness, fuel lines made from castor bean oil, seats made of soybeans and post-inFord F-150 uses dustrial recycled cotton sustainable materials – one 2015 F-150 uses shoddy that includes to help reduce blue jean material, bath its environmental towels and/or T-shirt footprint. material. “We designed Ford Keith Morgan F-150 to be a game changer,” said Doug Scott, Ford truck group marketing manager. “Many have recognized F-150 as the toughest, smartest, most capable F-150 ever, but this award is proof it’s also a fuel-efficient, environmentally responsible option.”

Hyundai’s Tucson Fuel Cell recently set the land speed record for a production hydrogen-powered SUV at the Soggy Dry Lake Bed of the California desert, with a top speed of 94.6 mph. The Tucson Fuel Cell is the first mass-produced fuel cell vehicle, with nearly 100 of these zero-emissions SUVs roaming the streets and highways of Southern California, the first of which was delivered to its owner in June 2014. Besides setting the production fuel cell SUV land speed record, this same fuel cell vehicle was able to easily traverse the off-road terrain of the lake bed’s surrounding desert environs, benefitting from the substantial ground clearance of a compact SUV. Even more, with fold-down seats and rear hatch access, it is able to better meet the various cargo-carrying needs of active individuals and families at the same time. The Tucson Fuel Cell has an EPA-estimated driving range of 265 miles, allowing it to conveniently meet the transportation needs of many families in the Southern California region. When coupled with a refueling interval of only a few short minutes, the range and refueling convenience of this fuel cell rivals many gasoline vehicles emitting combustion-based emissions.

Renault will return to Formula 1 with its own team for 2016 season. Renault, 12-time Con-

Formula 1. Particular attention was paid to competing successfully with its own team in a financially sound way starting in 2016. As a full team, Renault will take maximum benefit from its victories. The payback as an engine supplier proved to be limited. The return on the investment necessitated by the new engine regulations and the return in terms of image were low. Work continues on finalizing the terms of the acquisition of the Lotus F1 team in the shortest timeframe possible. The principal contracts were signed on December 3, 2015. The Lotus F1 Team effectively stands out as the best partner. Renault and Lotus F1 have known each other for 15 years and were world champions together in 2005 and 2006. Renault has had uninterrupted involvement in Formula 1 for almost 40 years. In 1977, it revolutionized the championship with the introduction of turbocharging, a technique that soon became the norm in the sport. Renault has since taken part in more than 600 grand prix, claiming 168 race wins, 12 Constructors’ titles and 11 Drivers’ crowns. Renault’s decision to continue its involvement in Formula 1 is confirmation that it sees motorsport as an essential part of the brand’s identity. Formula 1 is the ultimate symbol of the passion for automobiles. Passion is defines Renault as expressed by its brand signature, ‘Passion for Life’. In addition to attracting many customers, Formula 1 also fuels employee motivation. As the pinnacle of motor sports, Formula 1 demands technological and operational excellence. The championship serves as a showcase for the technological expertise that Renault dials into its products for the benefit of its customers.
