‘Ice Angels’ Take on National Championships

Truck flies to Hwy. 1 crash By MONIQUE TAMMINGA Aldergrove Star

Alcohol and speed may be factors in a serious single-vehicle crash in which a pick up truck became airborne, landing in a ditch below in the westbound lanes of the freeway in Langley on Saturday night. Around 8:45 p.m., it’s believed a 53-year-old Abbotsford man was driving at a high rate of speed westbound on Townshipline Road when he failed to negotiate the curve, said Langley RCMP. That road curves to parallel the freeway, near 272 Street. The driver’s 2003 GMC Sierra pick up became airborne, landing in the ditch below the westbound lanes of the freeway. The cab of the truck actually separated due to the force of the impact. The lone occupant was airlifted to hospital with serious injuries, said police. It’s unknown how he is doing at this time. The pick up truck was seized for mechanical inspection. There were several witnesses to the crash, said police. Port Mann RCMP are following up on whether impaired charges will be recommended.

Aldergrove church kickstarts refugee fundraiser By TYLER OLSEN Aldergrove Star

It has been a wild week for the members of Abbotsford’s Interfaith Refugee Project set to welcome a Syrian refugee family to Canada Friday afternoon. On Monday, the group held a regular meeting to prepare for the expected arrival of refugees in late February at the very earliest. But that night, an unexpected call relayed the news that the young family would be arriving later this week.

The two dozen members of the group quickly sprung into action to have everything in place for the family, a 28-year-old man, a 26-year-old woman and their nine-month-old baby daughter. The three had been staying in a refugee camp in Jordan. The husband and wife had previously attended university in Iraq, and the man speaks at least some English. Beyond those details though, the group knows little of the incoming refugees, who will stay with a local family in the days after their arrival.

“We were in total shock because we thought we had at least a month,” said Donald Strangway, one of the members with the group. Nevertheless, the week has been exciting, he said, and a diverse swath of Abbotsford has laid the groundwork to ease the family’s transition into life in Canada. From Sikh groups to Muslim organizations and Christian churches, Strangway says help for the refugees has come from across faith and cultural lines.

“The project has caught fire – everybody is enthused,” he said. The group has raised just over $28,000 toward the $32,000 that will be required to fulfill the project’s 60 per cent of the family’s first-year costs under the blended visa office referral initiative, through which the sponsorship is taking place. (The government covers the other 40 per cent of the costs). A variety of help has come courtesy of Abbotsford Community Services, while a Syria-born pharma-

cist has offered to provide translating assistance. A presentation at a Sikh temple netted an impromptu donation exceeding $600, and the whole fundraising effort was kicked off when Aldergrove United Church offered $15,000 raised from the sale of their building. “The enthusiasm has just grown,” Strangway noted. He said members of the refugee group, which includes members of a variety of faiths, along

300 anticipated at Coldest Night of the Year Walk Aldergrove Star

The Salvation Army is encouraging Langley and Aldergrove residents to bundle up and raise cold, hard cash for Langley’s homeless. The third annual Coldest Night of the Year Winter Walk takes place on the evening of Feb. 20, starting from the Gateway of Hope homeless shelter. Thousands of participants will be taking part in the walk in around 100 cities across Canada. By walking together in the chill of the night, participants will better understand the experience of being on the streets during a cold Canadian winter.

Langley walkers will raise funds to aid the work of the Gateway of Hope Emergency Shelter and meal centre. Gateway of Hope is busier than ever with its yearround 32 emergency beds and many extreme weather shelter nights maxed out, with an additional 30 people coming in from the cold. The Langley Winter Walk begins and ends at Gateway of Hope, located at 5787 Langley Bypass, where walkers will register, turn in the results of their fundraising efforts, and return at the end of the evening for a warm celebration meal. Donning iconic blue

toques, participants will walk a 2 km, 5 km or 10 km route, and will warm up with hot drinks at rest stops along the way. This is Gateway of Hope’s third year taking part in the Coldest Night of the Year, and they’re aiming to raise $30,000 for their work with the homeless in Langley and Aldergrove. An anticipated 300 walkers and 25 teams, including staff, volunteers and friends of Gateway are expected to brave the cold winter’s night. Interested community members can visit www. coldestnightoftheyear.org/ langley to sign up as a walker or create a team.

Local guilty in New Year’s Eve murder Aldergrove Star

Members of the Interfaith Refugee Project leaped into action this week when they learned that the Syrian family they are sponsoring would arrive in just a few days.

A hearty welcome

FROM FRONT:

with some non-affiliated participants, have seized on the opportunity to do something meaningful in regards to a worldwide crisis they had been watching from afar. He said there has been substantial support from the large number of locals who are either immigrants, or children of immigrants to

Canada. “This makes it personal,” Strangway said. The refugees will arrive in Vancouver on Friday afternoon and be greeted by a large welcoming sign in Arabic. They’ll then come to Abbotsford, where the group hopes to give the family some time to recover from their long journey.

With some fundraising still needed, the group has plans to hold a burger and beer night at Town Hall on Feb. 24. There are also plans for a concert on April 3, along with a potluck and live auction on a future date. For more information visit http://interfaithrefugeeproject.blogspot.ca/

A 27-year-old Langley man has been found guilty of stabbing a friend to death on New Year’s Eve 2012. On Thursday, a Supreme Court judge found Jason Terrence Brewer guilty of second-degree murder in the death of Cole Manning, 40, who was found dead in Brewer’s basement suite home. A second-degree murder conviction carries an automatic sentence of life in prison. However, Brewer will learn at a later date when he will be eligible for parole. He appears next on Feb. 11. During Brewer’s trial it was revealed that Manning had gone to Brewer’s house, where he was stabbed to death. His bloodied, naked body was found, face down, on Brewer’s bed. From the beginning of the

trial, Brewer has admitted to killing Manning, but pleaded not guilty, taking the stand to stay his actions were selfdefense. Both men were naked at the time of the attack. Brewer stabbed Manning almost two dozen times, leaving the kitchen knife in his victim’s neck. He then fled his Willoughby basement suite and met with a longtime friend, confessing what he had done. That friend called 911. Toxicology reports showed Manning had no drugs or alcohol in his system at the time of his death. Brewer also sent out several text messages before his arrest, some to his girlfriend at the time. But it took tracking Brewer’s cellphone for police to find him. They were able to track him down nearly eight hours

after the murder. Police from both Langley and Abbotsford initiated a short pursuit and had to box him in on 264 Street to make the arrest. Previously, Brewer was convicted of deliberately driving into oncoming traffic in 2009, causing a horrific sixvehicle crash on Highway 10, which caused permanent and devastating injuries to a man and a woman. At that time he was on probation for robbing the Langley Mac’s store. His mom posted bail but then revoked it after he assaulted her with a knife. In the case of the head-on crash Brewer originally pleaded guilty, because he said he was trying to commit suicide. He appealed to retract his guilty plea and won. However, a judge found him guilty anyway, sending him to prison for five years.

Volunteers keep the needy warm and clean A small group of volunteers in Aldergrove and Surrey are making sure that the homeless and disadvantaged in the Fraser Valley have warm and clean clothing provided at no charge. Free Clothing BC has been delivering the clothes and personal health items to at least 2,000 people over the past three years it’s been in existence. Dan and Charmaine Deyette of Aldergrove and Tanya McLean of Surrey first met while serving as volunteers with another organization. They decided to start their own organization in February of 2012, with the goal of providing only new, or clean used, clothing items to those in need. “We launder every single used item that we give out and we store them in standard storage boxes in heated, rented mini-storage lockers in Surrey and Aldergrove,” says Dan. “It’s safer and that way there’s no chance of vermin getting into the goods. We feel better about doing it this way than using ‘free’ sheds for storing everything.” The organization hosts regular events at schools and churches where the pub-

lic is invited to come in and choose what they may need. These events are publicized through social media such as Facebook, as well as posters at the food banks, Job Zone offices, shelters and so on. They also do regular deliveries of goods to persons in need at shelters such as Abbotsford’s Warm Zone for women, the 5 and 2 Ministry at the homeless camp at Abbotsford’s Jubilee Park and the Aboriginal Friendship Centre and the Hub Society in Surrey. Information on the program is on the website: http://www.freeclothingbc.com/ or phone 604-512-4116. Their Facebook page is https://www.facebook. com/FreeClothing/?fref=ts There is a Free Clothing BC event set for Aldergrove at Parkside Elementary school, 3300 - 270 Street on Saturday, Feb. 27 at 10 a.m. Infant to adult size clothing, shoes and household items free to anyone, no questions asked. Please bring your own bags. More information at website www. freeclothingbc.com or call 604-5124116 or see Facebook.com for FreeClothing page.

The BC SPCA and some Langley horse owners are sounding the alarm about difficult times in the equine community as a result of skyrocketing hay prices. Last summer’s drought has led to a shortage of available local hay, with farmers and livestock owners having to buy outsourced bales at nearly double the cost. “I’ve heard of some people selling their horses and others not feeding their animals as much this winter,” said Langley hobby farmer and horse rescuer Teresa Townsley, owner of Festine Lente Farm. She is also a member of the Horse Council of B.C. Townsley said online forums have been lighting up with the concerns about feed costs. “The situation is really bad and going to get worse,” she said. “A bale of hay should cost about $8 to $10, but now is $18 to $24. It’s having a huge impact.” A thoroughbread horse can eat a bale a day, she said. Marcie Moriarty, BC SPCA manager of animal cruelty investigations, said the agency has never before had as many horses in its care. “The availability and pricing of hay has been on our minds a lot lately. We know there are more cruelty investigations when this occurs,” said Moriarty. She said there is already equine winter starvation syndrome to be concerned with. “With colder temperatures, it takes horses more energy to maintain their body temperature, which means they are burning more calories so they actually need to eat more in winter. “A horse with a body score index of below three requires intervention by us. Ideally, we want to see four or five.” Moriarty said dealing with horse welfare in B.C. is a co-operative effort and only in extreme cases do they seize horses and recommend cruelty charges. But as with all rescue organizations, the SPCA is hoping that the horse community will help out neighbours in need. Townsley agrees with that sentiment. “Don’t be too proud to ask for help,” she said. “It’s a lot easier to help feed a horse now than to rehab one that is malnourished.” Townsley keeps one stall open for horses in need of help. She works with the veterinarian medical association to provide specialized care for extreme cases of

Hobby farmer and horse rescuer Teresa Townsley with her rescue horse Harry who came to her three years ago so malnourished he had lost his hair and only weighed 750 pounds. Townsley and the BC SPCA say the high cost of hay may lead to more cruelty complaints. Both are asking neighbours to help out neighbours in these difficult times. Townsley said it is much easier to feed a horse now than to rehab a malnourished one. animal abuse and neglect. She has kept Harry, who arrived at her barn three years ago so malnourished and badly treated that she estimates he was two days from death. “The trauma (had) left him hairless when he arrived with us. He was only 750 pounds. A normal horse should be 1,300 pounds.” The horse’s lower jaw didn’t develop properly because he was never given the opportunity to stretch it out to eat grass. This makes him harder to feed and has resulted in dental issues. Townsley said Harry is part of the family now and is “really sweet, a nice guy.” It isn’t just horses that rely on hay; goats, alpacas, cows and sheep do as well. Townsley said this crisis should show everyone how important food security is and how important it is to keep agricultural land in Langley. “I live on 16 Avenue, near a lot of those beautiful rolling grass lawns people drive by. But what people don’t realize is those are actually meant for food. That grass is our hay fields. “With 16 Avenue being expanded, some of those precious fields may be expropriated.”

Kelly Coughlin with the Horse Council said hay prices have been increasing for years and it depends on who you talk to about whether there is a hay shortage or not. Otter Co-op feed wholesale manager Brad Hannah said there is a shortage of local grass, so it does become an issue of supply and demand. “Maybe a few stores have some, but not many. It’s going to be really slim pickings come March. “The first local cut of grass isn’t until June so it depends on how much you had stored over winter for availability,” he said. At Otter Co-op, they offer concentrates and grain-free feeds to complement the hay. Hannah also does hay analysis to make sure a horse is getting the right kind of hay, with the right balance of sugars and fibre. The BC SPCA said it encourages Langley residents to call or email them if they have concerns about a horse’s welfare. They also encourage people to view the horses they currently have up for adoption. “Horses add great value to people’s lives. We have some amazing horses looking for forever homes,” said Moriarty.

Suspected drug dealer busted Aldergrove Star

On Wednesday, Jan. 13, police executed a search warrant at an Aldergrove residence after Langley RCMP had initiated an investigation into the drug trafficking activities of an Aldergrove resident. “This investigation took on a higher priority due to the fact the residence was in close proximity to a school,” said RCMP spokesper-

son, Corporal Holly Largy. “With the assistance of Lower Mainland District ERT, Langley Street Enforcement Unit and officers from General Duty, the warrant was executed.” Items seized include over 30 grams of a substance believed to be crack cocaine, 20 grams of suspected powder cocaine, nearly 40 grams of potential methamphetamine,

over 2.5 pounds of suspected marihuana and a variety of drug trafficking paraphernalia. In addition to the drugs, police also seized a starter pistol and over $2,000 in cash. Charges will be recommended for the 20 year old resident that will include trafficking a controlled substance, and possession of a controlled substance for the purpose of trafficking.

Gibson says ban still reflects public sentiment By TYLER OLSEN Aldergrove Star

Nearly 20 years after Abbotsford banned exotic dancing in the city, Abbotsford-Mission MLA Simon Gibson – who served on council during that time – says there is still a large number of people who believe such a bylaw is important. Gibson is one of three councilllors from that era who have gone on to serve in senior levels of government – Abbotsford MP Ed Fast and Langley-Aldergrove MP Mark Warawa were also both part of the

council that voted to ban stripping in Abbotsford in 1997. The bylaw has been called “outdated” by some after a sold-out male strip show was cancelled after the owners of the West Abbotsford pub where it was to be held was notified of the ban. Fast and Warawa declined to comment on the bylaw’s relevance in 2016, with both saying they are focusing on federal matters. But Gibson said, “I still believe that there is a significant number of residents who do not wish to see the devaluation and trivialization

of human intimacy.” The bylaw, he said, addressed those feelings. Patricia Ross, who was also on council at the time but was not present when the bylaw was passed, said that councillors were responding to “overwhelming” public opinion asking for such a ban. Ross said that while a couple of letters have been received since the cancellation of the recent show, there was no public demand for changing the bylaw before that during the city’s official community plan consultation process.

Winter blossoms and a crocus upstart. The white snowdrops are what remains of the old Urquhart family property; the house has been demolished and once flourishing fruit trees are all in decay while the snowdrops march forward, anticipating spring. The original handful of bulbs were probably planted in the 1950s.

Some of the financial pressure faced by prospective business students in B.C. can be reduced, thanks to David Black, owner of Black Press. Graduating high school students in 37 of the province’s school districts intending to study business at the University of Victoria’s Peter B. Gustavson School of Business can apply for a $5,000 scholarship. The Black Press Business Scholarship is awarded based on academic merit, leadership and a demonstrated desire to make a positive difference in the world. Students must apply to the Gustavson School of Business, Bachelor of Commerce Program before Feb. 28 to be eligible. Last year’s recipients include Surrey’s Elgin Park Secondary grad Taylor Walters and South Delta Secondary graduate Kris Jantsch. Walters, who is from White Rock, will be starting first-year studies at the University of Victoria this September and will be studying business in the Peter B. Gustavson School of Business in the hopes of obtaining her Bachelor of Commerce. Jantsch grew up in Tsawwassen and graduated from South Delta Secondary’s French Immersion program last June, receiving a double Dogwood Diploma. He too will be starting his first year at Gustavson. Throughout his years in Tsawwassen, Jantsch played competitive soccer for the local club and the senior school team. The scholarship was established in 2008 by Black to give students from across the province access to a business education. Black chose the Gustavson School of Business because of the innovative program format. Students spend their last two years of their degree fully immersed in the business school where they can specialize in entrepreneurship, service management, international business or management where they customize a program that suits their interests. Every student takes at least two paid co-operative work terms, has the opportunity to participate in an international exchange, and learns about sustainable business practices.

Urban drug ghettos aren’t working

Communities around B.C. are struggling to cope with the continued influx of what politicians call “homelessness,” a term that suggests the problem can be solved merely by providing more homes. Taxpaying citizens see the daily reality behind the soothing euphemisms – mainly transients squatting in parks and “tent cities” blighted by drug abuse and crime, and “homeless” shelters that fill up as soon as they open. They worry that the continued costly supply of supports only invites more arrivals, particularly in the gentle climate of southwestern B.C. Their worries are well founded. In Abbotsford, a 40-bed “temporary weather shelter” made from industrial camp trailers opened in December with a $450,000 operating grant from B.C. Housing. It was full in 10 days. Abbotsford Police Chief Bob Rich told city council in January that his bike officers don’t recognize most of the shelter occupants from their constant patrols of local tent camps, the largest of which has been on a city-owned roadside site since 2013. In Maple Ridge, a “low barrier harm reduction” shelter was opened last fall in response to a growing tent camp and accompanying drug dealing, prostitution and petty crime. One resident noted bitterly that a mayor’s task force had identified 42 unsheltered homeless people, then found places for 77 from the camp, 40 from a closing “temporary” shelter and 40 in a new shel-

ter. “How exactly does one house 157 out of 42?” she asked. Victoria’s camping population has gathered in an Occupy-style squat on provincial land next to the courthouse, after years of uncontrolled camping in Beacon Hill and other city parks. The city opened a shelter in a vacant Boys and Girls Club gym, complete with new indoor tents. By the time that was full, the courthouse camp was bigger than ever, with some occupants describing how they came to town for the opportunity. One said Vancouver Police gave her a bus ticket to Victoria. The latest plan by a local agency that runs Victoria shelters is to convert an old, empty seniors’ care home into a 101-bed permanent housing facility. This would also be “low barrier,” a euphemism for allowing drug and alcohol consumption in the rooms. The city has come up with around $1 million for this project, in a residential area next to a school, but it still needs millions more to renovate and run it. This would presumably come from B.C. taxpayers via our social housing czar, deputy premier Rich

Coleman. Coleman pioneered this “housing first” experiment in 2007, buying up 13 century-old “single-room occupancy” hotels in Vancouver’s notorious Downtown Eastside. These crumbling bedbug habitats were bought and renovated for a staggering $143 million, plus a 15-year maintenance commitment and a cop assigned to each one in an effort to contain the chaos inside. Coleman brags endlessly about the great job he has done, but how is that actually working? A new study by Simon Fraser University researchers provides a more objective assessment. Tracking 433 mentally ill homeless adults over 10 years, the study found the concentration of lowrent accommodation, food handouts, street outreach and medical supports resulted in “significant personal decline rather than recovery, as evidenced by their involvement in the criminal justice system, large increases in acute care and prolonged homelessness.” The rate of people arriving in this service-intensive hellhole has tripled in the last 10 years, a finding similar to studies of concentrated services in New York, Sao Paulo and Osaka. It’s a cautionary tale for other urban communities where this failed containment model is proposed. Tom Fletcher is B.C. legislature reporter and columnist for Black Press.

The Fraser Valley Family Day event is back and bigger than ever at the Langley Events Centre on Monday, Feb. 8, says organizer Dana Matheson. “It’s going to be really good this year, lots is happening,” said Matheson, owner of Langley-based C&D Logistics and a father of two. This year, the event will take place from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., but now includes the Rivermen’s hockey game next door in the arena at 1 p.m., followed by a free skate with the Rivermen players at 3:30 p.m. The day is by donation with 100 per cent of proceeds going to local charities. JRFM Radio has come on as a sponsor and plans to bring musical guests. The fieldhouse will once again be filled with activity stations ranging from bouncy castles, a velcro wall and Sumo wrestling to obstacle courses and a tug-of-war. Matheson organized this event last year as a way to give back to

the community and because there wasn’t much going on during the Family Day long weekend. “It’s celebrating family and the community,” he said. Sports fans will get a chance to meet with Grey Cup winner Justin Sorensen as well as BC Lions players. Members of the Stealth lacrosse team and Langley Rams will also be there, along with their mascots. There will be a designated section for toddlers, with activities specifically for them. “Toddlers weren’t properly addressed in last year’s event so we’ve changed that,” said Matheson. Township firefighters will be there with their fire truck, letting kids spray the hose and try to rescue someone from the smoke room. Next door in the gym there will be face painting and a photo booth and local businesses will have tables, handing out food and products as well as getting to know the visitors. Mr. Canuck, Mark Donnelly,

will sing the national anthem at both the Rivermen game and at the Family Day event. This year, Matheson has partnered with LEC, which means the event logistics will be worked out through them and the entire facility will be dedicated to the event. “Last year we believe there were around 2,000 people who came out. This year, we’d love it if we could reach 30,000,” he said. Matheson is the recent winner of the Langley Chamber of Commerce Under 40 Business Person of the Year. He is involved with numerous charities, including Kimz Angels. Angels founder Kim Snow will be at the fieldhouse, accepting donations of food and baby essentials to fill her truck. Last year, the event raised $11,000 for local charities. This year, Township Firefighters Charitable Foundation, Basics For Babies and Life Ready are the chosen charities.

Flight museum gets new home By DAN FERGUSON Aldergrove Star

A new and much bigger home for the Canadian Museum of Flight in Langley has cleared an important regulatory hurdle, with news the Agricultural Land Commission (ALC) has approved the construction on protected farmland next to the Langley airport. In a five-page written decision released on Nov. 27, the ALC tribunal ruled the project, because of its relatively small size and location, “would not have an adverse impact

on surrounding agricultural land or operations.” The museum said the approval will help the fundraising campaign for the proposed 60,000 square foot building on a 1.6-acre site in the 21300 block of Fraser Highway, next to the Derek Doubleday Arboretum. “Now we can do serious facility fundraising and planning,” said Gord Wintrup, the museum Building Task Force leader and former chairperson. “(It’s) great news.” “Construction of a new museum facility 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 $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.

Flooding: Preventative Maintenance While Township crews routinely inspect culvert trash racks and storm systems to make sure they are functioning efficiently, conditions can change rapidly during storm season. You can do your part to reduce flooding risks by completing some of these simple preventative maintenance measures: • Clear nearby curbs and catch basins of leaves and debris, especially during heavy rain, as water running off the street will carry more leaves and debris into the curb. • Do not rake leaves from your property or boulevard onto the street or into open ditches. • Collect and compost leaves on site or bag them for future pickup. • Clear debris that has collected in driveway culverts and resulted in blockages and check ditches in front of your property for blockages. To report flooding problems that are not directly related to your property or to report flooding occurring on municipal property, phone 604.532.7300 between 8:30am and 4:30pm, Monday through Friday, or call 604.543.6700 after hours.

Kodiaks roar into junior hockey playoffs stretch By KURT LANGMANN Aldergrove Star

The Aldergrove Kodiaks took a 4-3 overtime win and a 3-3 tie over the weekend to add another three points to their regular season record. The Kodiaks now stand at 45 points after 40 games (21-16-1-2), with four games left before the playoffs begin. The Kodiaks defeated the Harold Brittain conference leading Mission Outlaws 4-3 in the second overtime on Saturday night at Mission Leisure Centre. Kodiak Brandon Dolby opened the scoring in the first period, assisted by Spencer Unger and Joshua Poitras, but the Outlaws evened it up for a 1-1 tie at the start of the second. The Outlaws also scored the second period’s only goal to take a 2-1 lead. However, the Kodiaks scored two more early in the third to take a 3-2 lead, with markers from Wyatt Versluis and Cameron Davitt, assisted by Kyle Bosko, Lucas Stratford, Derian White and Chase Manderville. The Outlaws then scored on a power play to take the game into overtime. Kodiak Spencer Unger scored the winner at 1:12 in the second overtime, with assists from Brandon Dolby and Davin Padgham. Unger was also the night’s first star. The Kodiaks outshot the Outlaws 32-29 but were unable to score on any of eight power plays, while the Outlaws scored on two of 11. The Kodiaks also outshot the Grandview Steelers, 41-33, on

Sunday afternoon at Burnaby Winter Club, in a 3-3 tied game. The Steelers took the lead and were up 3-0 in the second period before Kodiak Cameron Davitt scored in the dying minute, assisted by Nathan Washington and Davin Padgham. The Kodiaks scored another unanswered pair of goals in the third to take it into overtime. Scorers were Eric Callegari on both, including one unassisted and the other short-hand-

ed with assist from Joshua Poitras. Callegari was the game’s first star and Kodiak keeper Cole Forbes was third star. KODIAKS DOUSE FLAMES 5-2 After a scoreless first period and a tied second the Aldergrove Kodiaks scored three unanswered goals against the Ridge Meadows Flames in the third to take a 5-2 victory, Jan. 27. It was the second win in a row for the Kodiaks. The Kodiaks’ home game saw the Flames open the scoring early in the second period but the Kodiaks responded within minutes with a pair from Brandon Dolby and Joshua Pollock, assisted by Eric Callegari and Spencer Unger, and Lucas Stratford and Deryk Kirchner, respectively. The Flames then scored on a power play to make it a 2-2 tie at the end of the second. In the second period the Kodiaks had outshot the Flames 22-12. Despite being outshot 9-6 by the Flames in the third period, the Kodiaks were the only ones to score, first on a power play by Davin Padgham, assisted by Callegari and Unger at 4:40. Less than four minutes later Kodiak Joshua Poitras put in another, assisted by Cameron Davitt and Dolby. Then in the dying minute after the Flames pulled their goalie for a man advantage, Padgham scored on the empty net, assisted by Callegari and keeper Cole Forbes. The Kodiaks outshot the Flames overall, 36-29 and the Flames had eight power plays to the Kodiaks’

Fiddle tunes delight at seniors’ dances By KURT LANGMANN Aldergrove Star

Old time fiddle music dances return for a new season this Saturday afternoon at the Aldergrove OAP Hall, featuring the Ukrainian Prairie Band. Gladys Andreas, who has been coordinating the twicemonthly dances here since she started it in June of 2013, says, “It’s been very successful. We have 60 to 80 attend, with the oldest regular being 94 years old. Many of them would like us to play every week but it would be hard to get all the players to commit to that.” The orchestras are all volunteers from the Central Fraser Valley Fiddlers, Ukrainian Prairie Band, Surrey Old Time Fiddlers and Hazelmere Heritage Fiddlers, who take turns at providing the music for the dances. Gladys is a long-time member of all of these fiddle organizations and performs herself with the groups at their weekly rehearsals, as well as at their dances and shows. “We play schottisches, waltzes, polkas, foxtrots, heel and toe, and square dances,” says Gladys.

sausage and cheese plates and desserts. The $6 admission fee includes everything, from the music to the refreshments and light lunches. And while the fiddlers, accompanied by pianists and guitarists, are all volunteers, some of them are professional performers. A retiree herself, Gladys keeps busy as a contributing member of 11 organizations, as well as contributing to the upcoming B.C. Old Time Fiddlers Association history book. But her first love is playing fiddle — as well as dulcimer and mandolin. “I grew up on a farm in Alberta and that’s what we did for fun, we played music and went to dances.” The Aldergrove Seniors’ Old Time Dances are held every second Saturday, 1-4 p.m. at Aldergrove OAP Hall, 3015 273 St. The new season begins Feb. 6 and continues every other Saturday until June 25. There is a summer break for July and August, and dances resume in September.
