Nine-year-old Matthew Perry and his brother Brendan, five, are upset about the possibility of the Langley Demonstration Garden closing due to Langley Township budget cuts. “It would be really sad,” Matthew said. “I really liked the classes they did, and in the summer it is really pretty. There are an awful lot of birds and butterflies.” Matthew was among the children who created the Stream of Dreams wooden fish mural on a fence at the back of the garden.

Programs face chopping block Some residents are trying to sway the Township to scrap some planned cuts to services and programs. by Matthew Claxton mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

Langley residents are beginning to fight for their favourite programs as the Township tries to determine what to cut to keep the budget under control. Hazel-Anne Vincent is a sometime volunteer at the Langley Demonstration Garden in Murrayville, and she’s trying to prevent its closure. “I don’t want the community to have to lose that,” Vincent said. Langley Township is facing a budget crunch caused by slower-than-expected growth, a federally mandated hike to RCMP wages, and several other increasing costs. Even with cuts, a 3.95 per cent property tax hike is planned. To make up the shortfall, the Township is cutting back on new projects and infrastructure, and considering reductions to a number of community services and events. After living in urban centres like Toronto and New West, Vincent moved to Langley five years ago and dropped in to an event at the demonstration garden soon after. “I got both a composter and a rain barrel at the event,” she said. Since then, she’s learned about everything from water conservation to invasive species during demonstration garden events, and she’s done some volunteering with the Langley Environmental Partners Society, the group that runs the garden.

Township councillors say they’ve been approached by the RCMP about their mayor. by Matthew Claxton mclaxton@langleyadvance.com Heather Colpitts/Langley Advance

Langley City administrator Francis Cheung and others throughout City departments took part Tuesday in the Great British Columbia ShakeOut (www.shakeoutbc.ca). The largest earthquake drill in Canadian history (about half a million people around the province) was intended to better educate residents on earthquake preparedness. During a quake, people are advised to get under a sturdy desk or table, and hold on.

Board leaders to rotate

Langley School Board trustees will each take turns in the chair’s seat, until November. by Heather Colpitts

hcolpitts@langleyadvance.com

Langley’s school trustees will continue to share the role of board chair. Trustee Stacey Cody brought forward a motion at the Jan. 25 board meeting to have a chairperson spot rotate each month to a different trustee, until the next general election, in November. After the resignation of chair Joan Bech last year, the trustees held the chair role for about a month at a time. Not everyone agreed to continue the format. “I believe the board needs consistency,” Trustee Rob McFarlane commented. He noted that no matter who was electRob McFarlane ed, he believed the Trustee trustees would work together. “I personally believe the chair role will be better served by one person,” McFarlane said. Also opposing the chair rotation was Trustee Wendy Johnson. She noted that

the rotation structure was supposed to be a temporary measure until after the Jan. 15 by-election and the community expects the board to make a decision. She also checked with someone with the B.C. School Trustees Association and found out the rotational chair format is almost unheard of. The rest of the board voted to continue handing the chair job between trustees. The chair calendar approved is: Cody for February, McFarlane for March, Steve Burton in April, Johnson in May, Cecelia Reekie for Stacy Cody June, Alison McVeigh in September (and Trustee during July and August if public statement is necessary), Rod Ross for October and Cody for part of November, until the election. Langley Teachers’ Association president Susan Fonseca said it was her union’s understanding that the rotating role would be an interim measure until the by-election and that this kind of method is dysfunctional. “There doesn’t seem to be any accountability in this system,” she said. Fonseca questioned the lack of continuity under a rotating structure: “I just don’t know who will be accountable to our concerns.”

Mounties won’t comment, but Township councillors say the police are investigating Mayor Rick Green. Councillors Charlie Fox and Jordan Bateman both said they were approached by the RCMP in the past few weeks, apparently regarding Green’s actions at a press conference following his censure last September. Council members suggest it has to do with too much information being made public. However, the RCMP would not confirm that any investigation is underway. “We are not confirming or denying anything on this issue,” said Insp. Tim Shields, head spokesperson for the RCMP in B.C. Rick Green Green said the police haven’t asked him any quesTownship Mayor tions. “I can’t tell you anything about it, because nobody’s talked to me,” Green said. He called the alleged investigation “another political attack, another ridiculous waste of time.” “I have trust in the process,” Green said. “I have done nothing wrong.” Fox said the investigation resulted in a request for information by the police, and that there was an in camera vote to release that information Monday. The actual content can’t be discussed, Fox said. “It still remains confidential,” he said. Bateman said he did not know what prompted the investigation. “It’s disappointing and concerning every time special closed meetings and personal privacy – if there’s even a hint of a breach,” Bateman said. Green was officially censured, and stripped of his post as a Metro Vancouver director, after he admitted to misleading council. He shot back immediately after the censure was announced in mid-September, saying council’s actions were “politically motivated.” Only Coun. Mel Kositsky voted against censuring Green. The mayor and several members of the council have been openly feuding on a number of issues for more than a year.

WORK IS AUTHENTIC

Anonymous bloggers are defaming them, claim two Langley school trustees. “I was completely appalled by the viciousness and the vitriol,” said Trustee Alison McVeigh. She railed against people who make anonymous postings online, which she considers defamatory against the school board, and what she deems false and inaccurate information that they post. Speaking at the Jan. 25 Langley Board of Education meeting, McVeigh said the allegations included that she didn’t attend trustee training and that she makes more than $32,000 annually. She refuted the allegations, adding said she makes less than $20,000.

“For some time I’ve been distressed,” she said, but claimed that the nastiness increased during the recent by-election. McVeigh said that, while she understands holding public office opens up a person to some criticism and scrutiny, the blogging constitutes a disturbing trend that is getting out of hand, by people who don’t identify themselves. She added that slander can’t be tolerated from people simply because they disagree with the opinion of a public official. “Where has civility gone?” she questioned. McVeigh asked people to consider the impact of their actions. “The example we are setting for our children must be considered,” she said. New trustee Cecelia Reekie said she, too, has already been targeted for negative comments. “It’s hurtful and destructive, and it doesn’t move us in the right direction,” she said.

School cuts examined by Heather Colpitts

hcolpitts@langleyadvance.com

Aiming high in its quest to offset its budget low, Langley School District is trying to find up to $4 million in cuts. The district’s plan to eliminate its $13.5 million debt calls for cuts of $3.75 million each year for four years, starting in 2011. At the Jan. 25 board meeting secretarytreasurer David Green suggested that trustees round that up close to $4 million to “take care of those cost pressures.” MSP premiums are increasing, districts must factor in carbon offsets as the province mandates they become greener, and utility costs are rising. The 112-day budget timeline lays out meetings with School Planning Councils, principals, and others. To meet budget deadlines, the district is adding a special board meeting for a financial update on Feb. 22, in addition to the regular monthly meeting on Feb. 15. Ministry of Education funding details

are expected mid-March. Langley plans to have its budget done by the end of April. Green said the district is looking at everything from bus routes to substitute teachers to overtime costs. “You have to understand that this is not something that boards of education in the province do as a rule,” he said of the severe belt-tightening to cut the debt. Langley needed special permission from the Ministry of Education to run a deficit when its shortage was noticed. “Difficult decisions will have to be made,” Green noted. “We need a budgeting system that’s not centralized and not decentralized.” As part of its cost-cutting, the district is allowing less school-based spending, but principals can still have some say, as each school has different needs. “We’ve asked them [principals] to switch from a spending mode to a saving mode,” Green told the board. The ministry continues to monitor Langley’s financial situation. “It’s a situation that is still of concern to the ministry,” Education Minister Margaret MacDiarmid told the Langley Advance when she visited here last week.

School catchments tweaked Plans are being made for Langley’s growing students numbers. by Heather Colpitts hcolpitts@langleyadvance.com

Families that move into the R.C. Garnett Elementary catchment area won’t be able to send their kids to that school in September. The school is at capacity, so Langley School District is reconfiguring catchments for Willoughby. Families currently sending their kids to Garnett will be grandfathered in, Langley School District superintendent Cheryle Beaumont explained during the Jan. 25 school board meeting. New students in Garnett’s southern area will likely have to head to Langley Meadows Elementary. Beaumont noted that the district has talked to Langley Township which said the overpass on 200th Street at about 68th Avenue will be completed so students east of 200th Street will have a safe crossing option. Senior staff recommended keeping the Willoughby area schools in their cur-

rent grad configurations so that students would face changes for 2011 as well as again in 2012 when the new school in Yorkson opens for 510 students. The local school board recently made a public plea for another Willoughby area school and wrote to the Ministry of Education about the growing population in the area. Education Minister Margaret MacDiarmid, here recently for the unveiling of new school modular classrooms, said she’s aware of the district’s request and the population issues. “We certainly know about the growth in the Willoughby slope area,” she told the Langley Advance. MacDiarmid said any new school must be looked at within the context of the needs of the entire province, not just a particular district. By keeping the current configuration for September 2011, the district will have to bring in portables for extra capacity at Garnett, Willoughby Elementary and possible Langley Meadows. The school board accepted the recommendations and will give final approval at the Feb. 15 meeting.

The City of Langley will be hosting a Financial Plan Open House on Wednesday, February 9th at 7:00 pm at the Langley Community Music School (4899 207 Street). The 2011 Financial Plan currently has a gap of $595,555 between total revenues and planned expenditures which would equate to a 2.99% increase in property taxes to balance the budget. Including utility rate increases, the impact on an average multi-family home (Assessed at $220,708) would be an increase of 2.80% or $34 and an average single family home (assessed at $455,798) would see an increase of 3.77% or $92.

Cut frills before trimming needs Balancing the hundred priorities of the Langley Township budget can’t be a simple process. But trimming hours at rec centres and closing the demonstration garden should be at the very bottom of the list. We agree that if something has to go, the Aldergrove hanging basket program should be high on the list. Yes, it looks nice. So do signs welcoming visitors to Langley, flowers planted along medians, fresh logos on the sides of Township vehicles. But if we’re trimming away the merest slivers of the budget, surely we should start with things other than services to the community. Fewer hours for rec centres is expected to save barely $60,000. The rec centres in Langley serve the young and the elderly, and help newcomers to our community find their footing and connect with their new neighbours. Cut them last. – M.C.

Defence falls short Metro Vancouver Board chair Lois Jackson has defended her appointments of Langley Township Mayor Rick Green to several Metro committees against the wishes of the majority of Township council [Mayor, council doing battle again, Jan. 21, Langley Advance]. Her defence in a letter to Mayor Green [the entire letter, along with further commentary, can be viewed at the Advance editor’s blog, Editor’s Notes, at www.langleyadvance.com or http://tiny.cc/ehh4e ] correctly notes that she has the legal authority to appoint whom she pleases. As we did last week [Feuding laid at Green’s feet, Jan. 21 Opinion, Advance], we continue to question her moral right, as the head of a body elected by fellow politicians and not by the public at large, to subvert the direct democracy of a duly elected council. Further, her defence demonstrates a serious lack of understanding of the state of civic affairs outside her own municipality, and specifically in Langley Township. – B.G.

Township council

Green is not feuding alone

Willoughby

Athenry plans on agenda

Dear Editor, Athenry Developments will be on the Monday, Jan. 31, 7 p.m., Township council meeting agenda, asking for final approval of its hotly contested plans for highrises, a large Irish Cultural Centre, and a pub, all surrounded by existing single-family homes at 208th Street and 83rd Avenue. Despite concerns from existing neighbours, the developer continues to ignore what is in the best interest of the Yorkson neighbourhood, and we need to see if Township council has both the courage and intelligence to deny this development from proceeding. Over the past three years, affected residents have been ignored and treated with contempt, while the development process has been pushed forward by the TOL. Any member of council who votes in favour of the project needs to be removed from council as soon as the next election. Elected officials have a responsibility to act in the best interests of the community they serve, not to its detriment. Hank Der, Willoughby [Note: A fuller version of this letter is online at www.langleyadvance.com.]

By-election

Thank-you drama overblown

Dear Editor, I have read disturbing things in the newspaper before: pedophiles, animal cruelty, drunken grad parties that result in stabbings and shootings. I find it quite odd that someone would find a thank-you letter to the editor [Thanks – to most candidates, Jan. 18 Letters, Langley Advance] disturbing, and that three separate letter-writers [Letter lacks values writer espouses et al, Jan. 25 Letters, Langley Advance and www.langleyadvance.com] would take it upon themselves to chastise and bully the author of the thank-you letter. Let’s save the drama for something that matters. E. Robinson, Langley

By-election

Supporters’ votes appreciated

Dear Editor, I want to thank all those who came out and voted for me in the school board by-election. We worked hard and came close, but it was not to be. This was an odd election, with no mayor, no council on the ballot, and only one school trustee to be elected. It helps to know that those who came out to vote for me did so because they believed I was the best person for the job, and made the effort to support me by voting. Voter turn-out was disappointing, making me all the more appreciative of those who made the effort. I congratulate Cecelia Reekie, and wish her and the board of education well.

that Fort Langley hearings, 208th Street truck route, Mufford overpass, and others were not rammed down our throats. I’m surprised you never mention Mayor Rick Green’s successful monthly forums and the citizens who receive open responses to their questions, in spite of gang of six interference by councillors (removal of Mayor Green’s picture from the Township advertising page) – they obviously recognize and fear the grass roots popularity of the forums and seek to subvert them. I recommend, Mr. Editor, that you take a more complete look at the past two years of our municipal history and view all the facts. While you are at it, you might suggest to Mayor Green and many of us interested constituents how he should “play well” with a group sworn to stonewall his every effort and appear to take their directions from outside municipal hall.

TOP FIVE REASONS TO BUY LOCAL Since we are told we are living in troubled economic times I thought I would present the below list of reasons to shop locally. I believe we could insulate ourselves from this economic downturn with a little old fashioned community thinking. 1. Keep money in our community: Significantly more money re-circulates locally when purchases are made at locally owned, rather than nationally owned businesses. This multiplier is due in part to locally owned businesses purchasing more often from other local businesses and service providers. Purchasing local helps grow other businesses as well as the local tax base. (studies have shown that locally-owned businesses generate a premium in enhanced economic impact – For every $100 spent at a locally owned business, $45 goes back into the community and our tax base. For every $100 spent at a chain store, only $14 comes back). 2. Support community groups: Non-profit organizations receive an average 250% more support from smaller locallyowned business owners than they do from large businesses. Big businesses sure like to brag about it when then do though. Have you ever wondered about a business that’s spends money advertising that they give to charity? Wouldn’t it be better to give that advertising money to the charity as well, instead of spending money to brag about how charitable they are? 3. Reduce environmental impact: Locally owned businesses can make more local purchases requiring less transportation and are also more conscious of the impact their business has on the environment and the local community because they also live in this area. 4. Get better service: Local businesses often hire people with a better understanding of the products they are selling and take more time to get to know their customers. 5. Invest in community: Local businesses are owned by people who live in this community, are less likely to leave, and are more invested in the community’s future. Small local businesses are the largest employer nationally and in our community and provide the most jobs to residents. Last of all, when you must buy from a chain store, look for Canadian made products, they will likely last longer and be safer for your family.

that board, no matter how loudly Charlie and his gang of six protest. Neither the mayor, you, nor I or any Canadian citizen is required to divulge how they voted on a secret ballot, as several councilors demanded of the mayor. Township council before the last election carefully avoided the public eye, and most discussions were fait accomplis before we were aware of them (real estate, soil, Mufford overpass, etc.) That level of secrecy has changed now, and the alumni don’t like it. Our mayor has represented his constituents in very difficult times. With no council support, it was only through his public forum and citizen direct democracy

Story missed Chief Dundas

Dear Editor, In your article regarding the Change of Command Ceremony for the Langley City Fire-Rescue Service [It’s official – fire hall one has a new leader, Jan. 25, Langley Advance] you incorrectly stated that there has been an interim Fire Chief since the retirement of myself, Chief McGregor. In fact, when I retired in November 2006, command was transferred to Fire Chief Bruce Dundas, who managed the department until June 2010. An interim Chief has only been in place since that time. Chief Dundas joined the department in the 1970s and played an integral part in developing the Langley City Fire-Rescue Service into the first class organization it is today. His contribution as Fire Chief should not be overlooked. I wish the new Fire Chief continued success in maintaining the standard of care that the citizens of Langley City have come to expect.

Dear Editor, Your editorial [Feuding laid at Green’s feet, Jan. 21, Langley Advance] is a partisan, selective recitation of facts. It is true that our current council is dysfunctional. Blame can be found in more than one place. A mayor is the CEO of council. He has rights and privileges afforded him alone – e.g. second vote on the Mufford overpass, change of venue to accommodate large crowds, etc. The mayor does not require approval of council to speak to or give an opinion to the ALR, Metro board, or any other body or individual. Metro board Chair Lois Jackson has the sole authority to make appointments to

2011 Property Assessments Property assessments for 2011 have been mailed by BC Assessment. The Township residential assessments, as a whole, increased by 6.55% while industrial and business assessments decreased by .51% to 1.60%. Changes in assessments for individual properties will vary from neighbourhood to neighbourhood. Some assessments increased more than 6.55%, others increased less than 6.55% and some decreased. The Township does not receive any more money when assessments increase. Depending on the 2011 residential property assessment change, some will pay more if their assessment increased more than 6.55%, whereas others will pay less if their assessment decreased or increased by less than 6.55%. Where a residential property assessment increased by exactly 6.55%, they will only see a 3.95% increase in their 2011 property taxes, should Council approve the 3.95% proposed property tax increase. Review your property assessment online at bcassessment.ca and compare for reasonableness against other properties in your neighbourhood. You have until January 31, 2011 to appeal the value of your assessments to British Columbia Assessment.

The Morris family – Nicole and Michael, and their children Savanna, Ryder and Kaylee – lives with the impacts of Savanna’s cerebral palsy and is looking for effective treatment.

Family tries new therapy for toddler

Langley parents are headed to California for a stem cell treatment to help their toddler. by Damian Inwood

in Vancouver. “He said they do it for leukemia and for other childhood cancers, but it hasn’t been approved for autism or cerebral palsy yet.” Husband Mike Morris, 35, works at Kirmac Collision as an autobody estimator.

About a year ago, the company and employees bought a $22,000 hyperbaric chamber for Savanna. “That has helped a lot,” said Morris. “Before, she couldn’t open her hand and she couldn’t hold her head up.” She said she’s read that

use of a hyperbaric chamber increases the chance of stem-cell treatment’s effectiveness by 800 per cent. The family has raised $13,000 for Savanna’s treatment from family, friends, and a fundraiser at a New Westminster comedy club.

Postmedia Network Inc.

Langley mom Nicole Morris is praying that a controversial, cutting edge U.S. stem-cell treatment will allow her two-year-old daughter Savanna to lead a normal life. “Savanna suffers from cerebral palsy and cannot walk or crawl,” said Morris. Savanna suffered cerebral palsy after she and twin sister Kaylee were born three months premature at Royal Columbian Hospital in August 2008. A baby brother, Ryder, was born at full term in September. “He’s chubby and big and so cute,” said the 28-yearold Morris. She plans to use stem cells from Ryder’s umbilical cord to help his older sister’s condition improve. Morris did research online and saw a program on U.S. TV about successful clinical trials at Duke University in North Carolina. But because Savanna was premature, she didn’t qualify. Through an Internet cerebral palsy support group, Morris contacted Dr. David Steenblock who has treated the illness with stem cells. The family plans to fly to California for five days for the $24,000 US treatment at Steenblock’s Mission Viejo clinic, north of San Diego. “When Ryder was born, we had physio for Savanna and, when the physiotherapist came, she started talking about wheelchairs for Savanna,” said Morris. “Our No. 1 priority would be for Savanna to be an average, normal, typical child.” When Savanna was born, she weighed two pounds, two ounces and was the size of Morris’s hand. To look at her now, you wouldn’t know anything was wrong with the cute little girl, said Morris. “She talks a lot and sings, and jumps and swims, and is beyond her age for language and speech and understanding,” said Morris. “It’s just that her motorskills area has brain damage from her premature birth.” An MRI showed a black spot in Savanna’s brain. “It should be grey matter and it’s not growing, due to lack of oxygen at birth,” Morris said. “Dr. Steenblock gives one vial of stem cells a day through an IV. The cells go to the brain and become that area that’s [currently] dead and not growing.” Stem-cell treatment has been used for a wide range of conditions, from leukemia to Alzheimer’s disease. Morris said she talked to a neurologist at B.C. Children’s Hospital about getting the treatment done

Faculty pianist joins in concert

“We’re excited about the 1800s ambience that will come to life in the fort with a variety of music, people in costume, and delicious traditional food.” NANCY HILDEBRAND

by Roxanne Hooper rhooper@langleyadvance.com

ernard Duerkson began playing piano by ear at the age of five. That was more than just a few years back. And now the teacher – in his 18th year at Langley Community Music School – is stepping back on stage this weekend with fellow West Coast Chamber Music (WCCM) colleagues to revel in the works of Robert Schumann and Franz Schubert. Duerkson has appeared in concert with many leading musicians at UBC, University of Victoria, and Simon Fraser University. He has been actively teaching and adjudicating throughout his career. He’ll be joined by several members of WCCM (more details about them are available online at www.langleyadvance.com, click on “Entertainment”). This concert is being held on Sunday, Jan. 30, starting with a talk at 3 p.m. and the performance at 4 p.m. in the Rose Gellert Hall of LCMS, 4899 207th St. Tickets are $15/adults, $13/seniors, $10/students and available from the music school box office at 604-534-2848.

Festival

Fort salutes its French-Canadian heritage The second annual Vive les Voyageurs is on this weekend. by Roxanne Hooper rhooper@langleyadvance.com

Interpreters visited near a fire built on the Fort Langley National Historic Site grounds during last year’s first ever FrenchCanadian Festival.

Langley Advance files

ort Langley National Historic Site is ushering in the new Parks Canada Centennial year in French-Canadian style this weekend. The second annual French-Canadian festival, now called Vive les voyageurs, takes place Saturday and Sunday, and promises to be even bigger than last year’ s event, said Parks Canda media officer Nancy Hildebrand. “We were very proud of the huge success of the first French-Canadian festival,” she said. “For a new event in mid-January, we had 1,400 visitors,” Hildebrand boasted, adding that the fort received an excellence award from the Pacific Federal Council for the 2010 event. “For the 2011 event, we have packed the weekend with even more great entertainment and hands-on activities such as spoon and jig workshops, finger-weaving, and moccasin making,” Hildebrand said.

Langley-based ice sculptor Harold Sawatzky will also be creating an original ice carving with a voyageur theme each day. “We’re excited about the 1800s ambience that will come to life in the fort with a variety of music, people in costume, and delicious traditional food,” she said, noting the traditional poutine and maple sugar in snow are on the menu. “Even if you don’t speak French, don’t worry – you can try the fun French 101 program, or even learn some words in Chinook jargon, the trade language used at Fort Langley,” Hildebrand explained. “French-Canadians have made a name for themselves in B.C. since the Hudson’s Bay Company first set foot on the shores of the Fraser River in 1827,” she said. “As voyageurs, interpreters, trappers, and more, their names are still heard throughout our community. Join us to celebrate this important heritage and learn something new about our ancestors of old and our community members of today,” Hildebrand said, extending an invitation. The festival runs Saturday and Sunday, Jan. 29 and 30, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily. • More online at www.langleyadvance.com, click on “Entertainment”

Exhibit delayed by snags at customs Lewis Hine’s pictures of the Empire State Building construction are up. by Roxanne Hooper rhooper@langleyadvance.com

omplications with importing a collection of photographs from the U.S. into Canada just about scuttled the current display on exhibit at the Langley Centennial Museum. Fortunately, despite a 10-day delay at customs, the works of photographer Lewis Hine are now hanging in the 1,500square-foot exhibition space at the museum in Fort Langley. “I was sweating about even getting it at all,” curator Kobi Christian admitted to the Langley Advance, remembering her sense of panic as opening weekend approached and the images weren’t there. “It was quite a mess and very stressful, and I’d like to apologize to the people who came to see it opening weekend, when the crates had only just arrived,” Christian said, noting the customs hiccup only made the show open a few days late. Nevertheless, The Rise of a Landmark show did open late Monday, and will remain on display until March 20. The exhibit consists of Hine’s photographs of the 1930-31 construction of New York’s monumental Empire State Building. Securing this exhibition Lewis Hine’s picture, Icarus. has been almost a year in the works, Christian explained, noting her first communication with its owners at George Eastman House International Museum of Photography and Film in Rochester, New York began almost 12 months ago. “It’s been almost four years since we’ve had a travelling exhibit here, and we were looking to bring something new and a little different into the community for a change,” Christian said, still exhausted by the ordeal. “It’s hard to find travelling exhibits that we think would be a good choice for us, will fit our exhibit space and cri-

teria, and work with our budget. But this one fit the bill,” Christian explained. Always looking for different and interesting exhibits, Christian is confident she’s achieved that goal by bringing in the works of a teacher turned famous photojournalist, who captured much more than the construction in his images. “There are 51 images, and they, and a 60-minute documentary playing in the back of the gallery about Lewis Hine and his photography, fill the space,” Christian added. The Rise of a Landmark: Lewis Hine and the Empire State Building exhibit, which toured the U.S. a few years ago, was most recently on display at the George Eastman House, and is expected to return there after its run in Langley, she said. For now, however, it remains on display at the Langley Centennial Museum at 9135 King St. in Fort Langley. • More online at www.langleyadvance.com, click on “Entertainment”

Former teacher shows talent on stage Langley’s own Delia Brett is on stage in Vancouver tonight.

Gallery show opens tonight

in the present day” with the audience guided by two Victorian hosts “in the delightful depths of mourning.” This is the first time ever in Small Stages’ history that artists have been given a specific theme for inspiration from which to choreograph their fiveto seven-minute piece. Brett, who has traveled across the globe with dance companies such as Battery Opera, Trial and Eros, and Kinesis Somatro is excited to return to dance in this production. Not only does she bring a wide range of experience that she’s garnered from work presented in theatres throughout North America and Europe, but she’s learning a thing or two. Brett, for instance, liked the unusual creative process behind character-based dance, and why performing as part of Small Stage is unlike any other platform on which she’s worked before. The final show runs Friday, Jan. 28, 8 p.m., at The Legion on Commercial Drive. Tickets are $20 at the door.

Onion family takes well to winter start

eople who want to get started right now with this year’s vegetable-growing can do just that, if they fit their early projects around the onion family – and one of the most rewarding onion relatives is shallots. Gardeners who grow shallots are routinely puzzled by the steep cost of shallots in stores, because they are among the hardiest and easiest onion family members to plant and harvest. Though they’re best planted in fall, starting shallot sets outside in early February will still give you a harvest in early September – a good one if you water them well in dry spells and apply a compost mulch or feed with organic fertilizer monthly. Like other multiplier onions, shallots are hugely cold-hardy and keep better in storage than other onions. If you plant them in a sunny spot, feed with your own compost and save sets to replant every October – they cost you nothing after the first year. The reddish-brown ‘French Shallot’ is one of the best. Garlic is equally hardy, and needs similar treatment. Planting garlic in fall is best, but an early February start can produce a crop by early fall. There are two kinds: hardneck garlic has big cloves clustered around a hard, central stalk. It isn’t a good keeper, though that varies with the coolness of its storage place. ‘Persian Star’ from Saltspring Seeds has very large, tasty cloves.

Anne Marrison is happy to answer garden questions. Send them to amarrison@ shaw.ca

In the Garden by Anne Marrison

Softneck garlic is a much better keeper, and can be braided (though you may need to reinforce the stalks with cotton or wool strands). But softneck types have smaller cloves. ‘Greek White’ (Saltspring Seeds) cloves are somewhat larger than average and keep better than most. Elephant garlic has huge cloves, is very, very mild, and needs similar conditions to other onion relatives. This one is actually a kind of leek. Onion sets of storage onions are sold in early spring and give you a fast, easy start. But it’s also possible to start this seed inside in early February and move the transplants outside about six weeks later. Storage onions are hardier than the Sweet Spanish onions. Two good stor-

age varieties are ‘Sturon’ and ‘Copra.’ The mild-flavoured Spanish kinds are always started from seed early. They don’t store well. Also, they’re not as hardy, so transplanting outside shouldn’t happen till frost season is over. Like all onions, they need a sunny place, rich feeding and water in dry spells. ‘Walla Walla’ and ‘Ailsa Craig’ are popular varieties. Leeks can also be started indoors in early February and planted out in April. Because there’s more eating if the succulent white part of the stem is as long as possible, some gardeners grow them in trenches which they gradually fill in. Others punch a narrow hole in the soil and drop the leek in. Watering or rain fills in the hole. The bluer the leek leaf, the hardier it is. ‘Blue Solaise’ looks beautiful and is very hardy. But this year Saltspring Seeds is offering ‘Darcy’s Purple Leek,’ which I haven’t tried, but will. Green onions can be started in late February and transplanted after frost. But it’s less work to plant the seed outside sometime in April. This crop takes well to containers.

The “kids” dominated the sixth entry to the Clash at the Cascades amateur boxing series. Friday’s show at the Coast Hotel & Convention Centre marked the first time the youth division of the British Columbia Combative Sports Association was engaged. COMBSPORT has been in operation for about 18 months and has had youth boxing, however the Olympic Youth program was not vetted out until October lst year. Clash 6 featured four bouts within the Olympic Youth program and all four included Langley residents. Leading the way was Mat Andreatta, who celebrated his 17th birthday last week and is a student at Brookswood Secondary. Andreatta was up against 16-yearold Devon Glover from the Fit Pit in Maple Ridge. After losing the first round, the 129-pound Andreatta used his edge in experience, despite giving up a weight division. The ring savvy showed through when Andreatta turned the tables on the 133-pound Glover before stopping him in the third round. In the semi main event, City Boxing’s Shawn McDonald fought for a City super lightweight title against Sharvin Soltani, who captured silver at the Canadian nationals a couple of years ago.

Troy Landreville/Langley Advance

A body punch from City Boxing’s Dustin Oster (right) bounced off the midsection of Fight Pit’s Brodi Walker. The two went the distance as part of the Clash at the Cascades 6, held Friday. For the first two rounds, both fighters were very tentative, however Soltani had clearly won the rounds by connecting on a few shots that McDonald did not answer. In the third round, McDonald picked up the pace for about 30 seconds, but it was not sustained. In the final round McDonald came out with added intensity and although he clearly won the round, according to his trainer Dave Allison, he came up short on the decision. Allison noted that going the distance and having a strong finish was important since McDonald had lost a very one-sided bout against Soltani in

their first meeting almost five years ago. City Boxing’s Hunter Meneghello had a tough assignment in front of him in the form of fellow 16-yearold Thomas Kippes of Blue Corner Boxing. Kippes, from Abbotsford, had been in the gym for three years getting ready for this bout, while Meneghello started training about six months ago. It turned out to be a see-saw battle in which Kippes received three standing eight counts. In between those, however, he was landing bombs on Meneghello. continued on page A29…

Boxing events outlet for kids in community …continued from page A28 The judges could not agree on the winner, according to Allison, who was also the show’s matchmaker. “One judge had it big for Meneghello and the other two were for Kippes by a narrow margin,” Allison said. “So the heavyweight contest was called a split decision for Kippes.” Meneghello’s D.W. Poppy Secondary schoolmate Dustin Oster left no doubt in winning a very one-sided decision over Brodi Walker from the Fight Pit in a battle of 16year-old welterweights. “Oster boxed very well for a first-fight guy,” Allison said. “He was very controlled and displayed very good footwork for a ‘zero’ fighter fighting his first fight.”

| F ri d a y, J a n u a r y 2 8 , 2 0 1 1 |

Oster won a unanimous decision. In the evening’s first bout, Aldergrove’s Matt Leclair had his hands full against Matt Ruff from Kitimat. “Ruff was true to his name and made it a ‘ruff’ night for Leclair,” Allison said. The two fought at 154 pounds. Ruff was too strong, and Leclair’s corner threw in the towel just moments before the end of the final round. Leclair now sports a 1-10 record while Ruff heads back to Kitimat with a 2-10 mark. COMBSPORT boxing is divided into two programs, Allison noted. “The old-style boxing program for boxers 16 years and older and the

Youth Olympic Program for boxers eight to 21 years,” he explained. Under the old-style boxing program format, the evening’s main event saw Keith Holdsworth of Chilliwack win a fourround decision over Alex Kippes of Blue Corner Boxing. The fight was competitive, however Holdsworth’s experience showed and he won the City light-heavyweight title via a unanimous decision. Cruiserweight Vince St. Pierre, a 20-year-old student at Trinity Western University, lost a very close split decision to Joe Csaszar in a very competitive three-round bout. “St. Pierre showed a better jab and was controlling the ring,” Allison reported. “Csaszar was relentless on

throwing an overhand right that countered often.” Allison said the show was “great” adding “we are giving Langley youth the opportunity to box and participate in the sport. The people at Coast Hotel & Convention Centre have been great in sponsoring these events and are showing that the casino complex is very much an asset to the community.” Allison said these types of events give these kids an outlet and is very good for the community. “I remember when the casino was just a proposal and many opposed it,” Allison said. “I feel the community resource it has become speaks for itself.” The next Clash event will be a St. Patrick’s Day themed night and will take place March 18.

Tim Stephens' Astral Reflections Aries March 21 - April 19: You have to recognize a basic truth: between now and October 2012, all your efforts to advance in the world (via career, marriage, business, carving out the land, etc.) will be either helped or opposed by another (or others). You will have to form a partnership of interests – your ambition, their security. Be warned: this/these others are hard-headed, skeptical, want proof, not sweet persuasion. So, give proof – of your loyalty, reliability, skills. Sunday/Monday point this out. If you meet a barrier, re-read this. By Saturday, the “right path” appears. Social joys midweek! Taurus April 20-May 20: Love, law, learning and travel – all are a little rocky Sunday/Monday. Be patient – solutions arrive in a small way Monday eve through Tuesday morning, and in a big way Friday/ Saturday. What does the solution look like? Ambition and hard work. Higher-ups, bosses and parents, judges and VIPs are impatient and temperamental to late February, so tread lightly, show good humour, don’t be querulous (especially Friday morning!). Your ambitions can be very successful this week, especially Tuesday eve onward, if you’re eager. Good friends, flirts and social delights arrive late week! Gemini May 21-June 20: Take care with investments, debt, sexual urges, deep health, surgery, commitments and “secrets” Sunday/Monday. If you must handle something in these zones, do so Monday eve through Tuesday morning. Avoid a legal fight all month; but if you’re in one, it intensifies mid-January to late February. Despite the trauma, litigation might solve a problem and make a wish come true! Stability, hope and anger are your allies. The same period might bring gentle love with a hotheaded, idealistic person – intimacy moves toward destiny. Tuesday to Friday emphasizes these themes. Grab opportunities.

Cancer June 21-July 22: Sunday/Monday highlight the problem (2010-2012) in a crucial relationship. You see another in terms of security, but they might see you as “fighting” their ambition. You’ll see clues to solving it Saturday. The solution has something to do with understanding, affection, and with secrets/ research, finances, sexual yearnings, commitment, intuition and dreams. Those secrets, finances, sexuality, et al, are emphasized midweek – they’re a source of ambition, success. If you can’t solve the relationship problem, you might “thoroughly” end the bond, now or later. Decide what’s best. Leo July 23-Aug. 22: Chores and health issues arise Sunday/Monday – with problems attached. Solutions to these problems occur Friday/Saturday – the answer might lie deeper, in diagnosis, even surgery. (Metaphorically, too – i.e., cutting out a wasteful or “work-causing” situation.) Relationships confront you mid-week: exciting meetings, challenges and opportunities. You could meet your match in love! That’s important now, as January to June luckily support weddings, love (and far travel, legal solutions, publishing and intellectual pursuits). Depths, secrets, intimacy and funding go well Friday/ Saturday. Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22: Romance could hit a snag Sunday/Monday – it probably involves money or possessions – or difficulty “possessing” someone. For you, now to late 2012, romance and sensuality are firmly fused – study whether this will be a problem or a blessing. Creativity and speculation could face the same two-year snag, so be cautious with risk. Chores and health – the main themes of these few weeks – become important midweek. A new work project could begin. Work and health are tied strongly – and mostly beneficially – to finances, investments, research and sex. These four are lucky now to June.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 22: I’ve mentioned several times over recent years, and will this whole decade, that domestic, property and security changes loom. These are emphasized this year and next, and might, during this time, present a) a puzzle to you, or b) a deeply experienced opportunity. This Sunday/Monday holds a problem or critical choice here – one that moves smoothly forward Tuesday, and meets a solution late week. (The solution involves work or health.) Now to June, relocation, new partnerships are lucky. Romance, creativity and risk lure you midweek, and could be the doorway to new partnership! Scorpio Oct. 23-Nov. 21: You will generally say what you mean Sunday eve – but this day and Monday can raise a barrier to communication that has been around for a year and will last to late next year. It could simply be that communications become burdensome (e.g., more emails – or IT glitches at your job) or, that gossip is a problem factor. You can set up or initiate a long-lasting communications solution Friday/Saturday, one that enhances both your career and security. Home, family, property concerns – February’s main focus – ﬂow well late Tuesday to Thursday. Romance, pleasure, beauty late week! Sagittarius Nov. 22-Dec. 21: Both a money opening/opportunity and a money barrier arise Sunday/Monday. This “duo” exist now into October 2012 (and have, for awhile). During the entire phase, take care with expenses, spending, investing. The problem factor seems to involve wishes, or popularity or enjoyment – too much of these for your bank account, maybe? Mild money luck enters Thursday, for a month, and a solution to past and present money dilemmas is available late week. Casual friends, siblings, communications, errands, paperwork, curiosity ﬁll midweek. They “are” the money solution, here forward.

Jan. 30 - Feb. 5 Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19: Your energy, charisma and effectiveness rise strongly Sunday to Tuesday midday – get out, ask favours, start important projects. If your project is monetary (or sensual) continue it through Thursday, as many “good starts” are available! Even Friday/Saturday continue to help – especially with money attached to career, property, and/or personal skills. Mid-January through February brings: a) the end of a money source, and/or b) the seeding of a new one, or c) money connected to property. Much can ﬂow to you – don’t let it ﬂow past/ away – save! Friends, errands, late week. Aquarius Jan.20-Feb.18: Rest,lie low,contemplate Sunday to Tuesday afternoon.You might spy a problem with communications, travel, intellectual, cultural or legal affairs Sunday/Monday. Keep the faith, because the rest of this week, especially Wednesday and Saturday, could brew the solution. (The solution lies in your own personality, your willingness to step forward and say, “This is me! And this is what I can do!” And that tendency, self-promotion, is highest and most successful this midweek, Tuesday-Thursday, and this month, February.) Chase money or spend (used items great) Friday/Saturday. Pisces Feb. 19-March 20: Your optimism and social desires rise Sunday to Tuesday afternoon. But you’re in an overall “recuperation mode” until Feb. 18, so don’t expect a lot. Be contemplative, restful, and gently private all week – especially Tuesday to Thursday, when weariness increases. (Great government, spiritual and health links midweek also.) You might notice a long-term problem (to October 2012) Monday, involving intimacy, sexuality, commitment, or focusing on your net worth, investments, debt. These dilemmas approach solutions Wednesday night and Saturday – or at least, show you how to “be safe.” timstephens@shaw.ca • Reading: 416-686-5014
