View of Metrotown from Burnaby Mountain.
readers favourite VIEW
kk BURNABY MOUNTAIN t’s no surprise that Burnaby’s tallest vantage point offers some of the city’s best views as it wins top votes in our Best of Burnaby poll. The panoramic views include those of the Burnaby Lake greenery, the growing skyline around Metrotown, the North Shore mountains and, on a clear day, downtown Vancouver. In addition to being on the way to Simon Fraser University, this park is home to Horizons Restaurant located within the park’s grounds, the photogenic Kamui Mintara totem sculptures, as well as 26 trails covering an area of 28 km. A large number of wildlife also call the mountain home, as blacktail deer, coyotes and bald eagles are commonly seen. Black bears and cougars may be less common but are most
I
definitely hidden among the woods. Going back in history, the area that is now Burnaby Mountain was first logged in 1903 and later became a popular hiking destination in the 1920s. It was declared a park for recreational use in 1957 and, in 1995, SFU transferred 820 of its acres to the Burnaby Mountain Conservation Area. A year-round destination, Burnaby Mountain offers each season’s prime views as spring and summer host a bloom of colours from the variety of different flowering plants, including more than 900 bushes in the Centennial Rose Garden. Fall features peak colours as the countless trees bring out their brightest leaves of the year, and winter snows blanket the world in a quiet and beautiful white.

The Blues & Roots Festival features more than music.
readers favourite outdoor concert of the year
kk BURNABY BLUES & ROOTS FESTIVAL ew outdoor concert venues in Burnaby rival that of Deer Lake Park as both of the top contenders in this category take place in this magical spot. Both the Burnaby Blues & Roots and the Symphony in the Park vied for top spot in the Best Outdoor Concert of the Year category, with the Blues winning out over the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra.
F
It’s no mystery to see why this event is so popular. With wide open parkland, surrounded by trees and nature, all combined with world-class blues, this annual all-day event continues to draw the crowds. Taking place on Saturday, Aug. 11, this year’s festival features different performers on various stages throughout the day with the main stage opening up for
the last few performances just as the sun sets and dusk lights up the lake. Every year, thousands gather to take advantage of the beer garden, food trucks, and artisan village while appreciating a line-up that includes international as well as local talent. While this year’s artists have yet to be confirmed, last year’s performers included a decidedly local flavour
with Leeroy Stagger, Sue Foley, Murray Porter, Jesse Roper, and Jesse Waldman entertaining the crowds. Get your lawn chairs and picnic baskets ready for a day filled with folk, blues and Americana music mixed in with food, kids activities, and some dancing under the moonlight. For updates on the artists’ line-up, please visit www.burnabybluesfestival.com.

readers favourite festival
kk HATS OFF DAY he first weekend in June not only marks the end of a long winter and wet spring, it also marks Burnaby’s annual Hats Off Day and Burnaby’s Best Annual Festival according to our readers’ poll. This year’s festivities take place on Saturday, June 2, with a parade taking top billing as a main attraction. As with previous years, Hastings Street from Boundary Road to Gamma Avenue closes down for the event with pedestrians free to mingle afterward to
T
enjoy and explore the displays and vendor wares. Organized by the Heights Merchant Association, Hats Off Day began in 1989 as a chance for business owners in the North Burnaby area surrounding Hastings Street to doff their hats in appreciation to their customers and residents in the area. It’s now grown to Burnaby’s biggest street festival, attracting an average of 60,000 people every year. Kicking off the event is a Family Fun Dash where families dash a
three- block race with proceeds going to the Burnaby Firefighters Charitable Society. Participants pay a $5 entry fee and dash from Madison Avenue to MacDonald Avenue along Hastings Street. To make the funfilled activities even more interesting, event organizers plan a different parade theme each year with prizes going to top efforts. Previous years have seen a jungle theme bring out Tarzan and Jane, while this year promises to feature eyepatches and swagger
with pirates and sailors being the main motif. In addition to businesses putting out their wares and setting up games, charitable organizations are also on hand to promote their efforts and do some fundraising, while the Show & Shine brings out the crowds who admire classic and custom-made vehicles, trucks and motorcycles. For more information please visit www.hatsoffday.com or email info@burnabyheights.com or call 604-294-8899.

Dogs and owners alike love Deer Lake Park.
readers favourite place to walk your dog
kk DEER LAKE PARK urnaby is blessed with a wide selection of parks scattered within its borders. According to the city’s website, there are close to 100 neighbourhood parks, 13 district parks, six natural feature parks and 15 ravine parks. Standing head and shoulders above these is Deer Lake Park, which has been chosen for the fifth straight year as Burnaby’s Best Place to Walk your Dog. A draw among park visitors is the extensive network of trails that run through the park, allowing people to take a short jaunt or a longer walk through the park.
B
Although dogs are not allowed along the banks and picnic areas of Deer Lake Park, they are more than welcome on a leash on the trails and green areas, which makes it a popular spot among dog owners in the city. Deer Lake Park is arguably at the cultural heart of the city being situated near Burnaby City Hall, Shadbolt Centre, Deer Lake Gallery and the Burnaby Village Museum. It also hosts a number of outdoor concerts and events throughout the year, including Symphony in the Park in July and Burnaby Blues & Roots Festival in August.

readers favourite community services
kk BURNABY NEIGHBOURHOOD HOUSE or the second year running, Burnaby Neighbourhood House has won top votes for Best Community Service Organization among our readers. Given the cultural diversity of Burnaby (more than 60 percent of its population identifies as a visible minority) it’s no wonder that this organization is so popular. The primary purpose of the Burnaby Neighbourhood House is to provide a place for new immigrants to come for information, support and resources, and a place where people can gather, whether they’re seniors, youth, families or individuals. Its underlying philosophy is
F
that everyone should have equal access to community programs and services, and that such programs should be accessible and affordable to all. Volunteers are what make the Neighbourhood House (with its two locations, one in North Burnaby and the other in South Burnaby) a success. They’re an integral part of the wide range of events and services offered such as a paint night, cultural sharing dinners, and the annual open house. Volunteers also help with the fundraising, which includes a number of events throughout the year and is highlighted by an annual gala diamond evening.

readers favourite burnaby celebrity
kk MICHAEL BUBLÉ urnaby has its fair share of celebrity sons and daughters. Some who regularly get votes in this category include actor Carrie-Anne Moss, NHL’s Joe Sakic and Global News’ Squire Barnes, but this category could in fact be called the battle of the Michaels – Michael J. Fox and Michael Bublé as both get a majority of the votes. Fresh off his appearance at this year’s Juno Awards that were recently held in Vancouver, Michael Bublé won this year’s Best of Burnaby celebrity. Bublé is back in business and is all smiles about the upcoming arrival of a baby girl with his wife Luisana Lopilato after having taken last year off performing to take care
B
of his four-year-old son who’s cancer is in remission. Part of Michael’s appeal in Burnaby is his strong ties to the community. He’s been known to support the Burnaby Hospital Foundation, the Burnaby RCMP, the Canucks Autism Network, Canucks Family Education Centre and Canuck Place hospice. Bublé got his start as a teenager, playing gigs whenever he could at nightclubs and weddings. His star rose with regular television appearances on the Vicki Gabereau show, a national broadcast shot in Vancouver. He hasn’t looked back, winning fans both here and beyond as well as 13 Juno Awards. For more information please visit michaelbublé.com.
