In a world ruled by technology and instant gratification, do kids still want to hike, canoe and be part of a scout troop?

Tonight that includes putting on a uniform and attending his first scout meeting of the year. Tanner is part of the First Fairfield scout troop, which meets weekly in the Lion’s Hall. He’s not sure what they’ll be doing tonight; this is his first night as a scout since he graduated from the lower-level cub program last spring. “In Scouts, what I think we’ll be doing is we’ll get more responsibility,” he says. “We probably do backpacking, canoe camping, mountain biking,

bike camping.” Tanner explains Cubs don’t do as much of that kind of thing—as eight- to 10-year-olds, he says, they don’t have the same skills or abilities under their belts. Graduating to Scout is a big step—and marks a point where kids are given more freedom than ever before. They’re trusted in more adventurous { See SCOUTS, page A9 }

leven-year-old Tanner King has dark, serious eyes and almost vibrates with curiosity. He explains a few of the projects he’s undertaking in his free time, gesturing with his hands. He has plans to build an off-road scooter from an old bike and his skateboard. He plays around with stop motion animation, setting up lego scenes and moving them in tiny increments. He wants to build a flying squirrel suit, and a catapult, and has a detailed plan for a tennis ball launcher in his mind’s eye. “I’m into facts and how stuff works,” he says, matter-of-factly. “I can’t name it all—I have tons of stuff I’m planning on doing.”

hilliwack General Hospital (CGH) is a great place to go if you need a hip replacement, but might not be so good if you’d like to avoid a C-section. A new online tool called Your Health System created by the Canadian Institute for Health Information (CIHI) allows users to compare a number of statistical indicators related to access, quality of care, patient safety and emerging health trends among hospitals but health regions and provinces across the country. Of patients 65 and older who attended CGH with a hip fracture, according to the CIHI data from 2012-2013, 92.3 per cent were surgically treated within 48 hours. That’s better than the Abbotsford Regional Hospital and Cancer Centre’s (ARHCC) rate of 86.4 per cent, the national rate of 82.5 per cent, B.C.’s at 81.9 per cent, or the Fraser Health Authority’s (FHA) at 78.4 per cent. Women looking to avoid a Caesarean section, however, might do well to avoid CGH as the rate of C-sections

Attrill seeks third term, Kha his first BY PAUL J. HENDERSON phenderson@chilliwacktimes.com

Two shootings

One man was sent to hospital after two separate shootings on Saturday in Chilliwack. A man in his mid-40s was the victim of the targeted attack at the Chilliwack Motor Inn before 5 a.m. on Saturday, according to Mounties. The man received serious but not life-threatening injuries, and was not co-operating with police. The second incident occurred at approximately 5:45 p.m. at a residence in the 8900 block of Broadway Street. No one was injured. It was unknown if the incidents were related.

Three arsons

Chilliwack Fire Department and RCMP investigators are looking into three separate arsons on Sept. 17. The first was just after midnight when firefighters attended an outdoor playground structure fire in the 45000 block of South Sumas Road. The structure was destroyed. Three hours later, firefighters responded to a dumpster fire in the 46000 block of Bole Avenue and a structure fire in the 9400 block of Nowell Street. Upon arrival at the latter, crews found a fully involved vehicle in the underground parkade of a three-storey building. All tenants were safely evacuated with two residents suffering minor smoke inhalation. Crews doused the dumpster fire without incident.

ith the start of the local government election nomination period just five days away, more candidates are announcing campaigns for the public offices in Chilliwack. The latest to put their hats in the ring for city council are Coun. Sue Attrill, who announced she would seek re-election, and first-time candidate Michael Kha. Attr ill was first elected

to council in 2008 and was re-elected in 2011. She said she has recently retired from full-time work allowing her to dedicate more time to city hall. “My priorities will continue to be keeping taxes as low as possible, improving the quality of life in Chilliwack and fostering a strong local economy.” Kha is a computer and networking consultant who is working on the final year of his bachelor of arts degree in history and political science at the University of the Fraser Valley.

wo incumbents and one newcomer announced their bids on Tuesday for the Chilliwack school board election in November. Two-term trustee Heather Maahs and one-term trustee Walt Krahn both announced they would seek re-election, while first-time candidate Paul McManus put forth his name alongside Krahn. Maahs said she looked forward to a third term, and was optimistic the board will continue to oversee the imple-

mentation of the Special Education Review, which she heartily endorsed. “There is a way to go before I’m satisfied that we’ve done everything we can for the students who need specialized services,” she said in a statement. “This is imperative.” Maahs said she is encouraged that the district’s $117-million budget is dealt with transparently. “How that money is spent must be completely accessible for public scrutiny,” she said.

Cultus Park T POP slate picks five candidates

BY PAUL J. HENDERSON phenderson@chilliwacktimes.com he only formal announcements regarding the Cultus Lake Park Board have come from sitting commissioners Carlton Toews, who will run again, and Owen Skonberg, who will not. But the informal Protect Our Park (POP) group—under which commissioners Bob McRea, Malcolm Shanks and Larry Payeur won in 2011— held a recent meeting to decide on candidates to back in the November election.

Paul McManus Heather Maahs received the highest number of votes out of 23 candidates in the 2011 election. “I believe we started with a good district, and we moved to a great district over the past three years, by connecting with stakeholders to give them all a voice,” he said in a statement. With school back in session this week after a prolonged labour dispute, Krahn said he wants to help heal the wounds among the parties. McRea stepped down from his elected position as commissioner on Aug. 15 to, in his words, spend “the next three months free of the constraints of the board, working to ensure the best candidates get elected.” Divisive and acrimonious politics have reigned at the Cultus Lake Park Noard for many years, and there are signs it may only get worse. The POP commissioners have butted heads with commissioners Owen Skonberg, Sacha Peter and Carlton Toews for the entire term since the 2011 election with accusa-

He said in his 40-year business career he had “never experienced such blatant disregard by management (in this case some commissioners and some senior park staff) for their ‘customers’ (i.e. residential and commercial leaseholders, staff and the public) as I have during my tenure as commissioner.” After McRea stepped down, the City of Chilliwack appointed local lawyer David Renwick to the board.

A decade of troubles for Sto:lo child welfare agency BY PAUL J. HENDERSON phenderson@chilliwacktimes.com

O

ne of the wedges that served to tear apart the local Sto:lo community 10 years ago remains as firmly entrenched as ever. And things might even get worse in the coming days for the local child services agency for First Nations families. Sto:lo Tribal Council (STC) Grand Chief Doug Kelly says the Fraser Valley Aboriginal Children and Family Services Society (FVACFSS) is “out of control,” and he has been given a mandate by STC chiefs to carry out “a strategy for political, legal and direct

action” to resolve the matter and make the agency accountable to local Sto:lo chiefs. The fight among local Sto:lo leaders over what was called Xyolhemeylh Child and Family Services dates back to 2004. The debate then served, in part, to split the Sto:lo Nation and spur the re-creation of the STC. In 2008, problems were supposed to be resolved as FVACFSS was created through then Minister of Children and Family Development (MCFD) Tom Christensen with the support of the Sto:lo Nation and the STC. But Kelly says poorly worded bylaws were not corrected and problems continued.

The most recent conflict emerged when two members of the board, Chief Willie Charlie of Chehalis and Gail Starr from Seabird Island, were removed. Kelly had a legal opinion sent to board president Gwen Point (former Chatelaine of B.C.) and the rest of the members stating they had no authority to remove Charlie and Starr. In an election by the general assembly of FVACFSS member for two seats on the board last year, Charlie put his name forward alongside Wenona Victor and Point. Charlie and Victor won. Point was later put on the board when a vacancy opened up, and { See FVACFSS, page A12

was criticized by some as being a “secret” meeting open to insiders only. Williamson said the only reason the meeting was invitation only was due to seating capacity at the venue. “The Lakers who were invited were ones who have expressed concerns about how the current board and staff have operated over the last three years and are looking for a major change in how our park is managed,” he said.

New numbers for Cultus board The structure of the Cultus Lake Park Board has changed for the 2014 election thanks to the Cultus Lake Park Amendment Act passed this year by the provincial government. The current board is made up of seven commissioners, five of whom are elected by Chilliwack residents and two by Cultus Lake residents. For the Nov. 15 election, the board has been reduced to five commis-

sioners just two of which are voted on by Chilliwack residents with three chosen by Lakers. The move was aimed to shift the balance of power towards Cultus residents and came about as a result of a petition started by Sue and Gary Lister, and championed by Chilliwack-Hope MLA Laurie Throness. Local government terms have also been extended to four years from three.

Suffering from Bladder Problems?

A

s we age, many of us experience a weakening of the bladder and the muscle that controls the release of urine. This often leads to an increased urgency to urinate and the inability to control urination. Twice as many women suffer from this than men.

Weak bladder problems include: Frequent night-time urination... About 50% of people 60+ years experience a frequency in nighttime urination leading to disturbed sleep patterns. This percentage increases with age. Incontinence... research shows 48% of women and 17% of men over 70 suffer incontinence.

Overactive bladder... is an urgent need to empty your bladder. This affects one in six adults over 40 and leads to a frequent washroom visits, incontinence and stress. Women often suffer from a weakening of the pelvic floor muscles

and the bladder sphincter (the muscle that controls urine flow).

Men usually experience urinary problems due to prostate problems (eg. swelling of the prostate) that occur with increased age.

Pumpkin seeds have a long history in helping to alleviate bladder conditions. Research shows that pumpkin seed extract strengthens the pelvic floor muscles of the bladder. It can also help to reduce prostate enlargement and relaxes the bladder. Ultimate Bladder Control helps to alleviate urinary frequency and incontinence and it helps to control an overactive bladder by strengthening the bladder muscles. For your good health.

Local youth inspire with acts of charity From giving up birthday gifts to selling candy and lemonade BY GREG LAYCHAK glaychak@chilliwacktimes.com

C

anadians are a charitable bunch. At least that’s what Statistics Canada reported in a study conducted two years ago, stating that 84 per cent of Canadians 15-andover made a donation to a charity or non-profit organization. But it’s difficult to find any data on the age group below those surveyed by the number crunchers, most likely because they’re considered unable to earn money. However, in Chilliwack some children defied that notion this summer finding their own creative ways to give. Last Saturday at Promontory Heights elementary school Brady Creelman celebrated his eighth birthday with a survivor-style party. It resembled many children’s theme parties, with one key exception: instead of bringing gifts, guests were encouraged to donate money to a cause. Brady will give those donations to the End Violence Education project (EVE), a group of nurses

His mother has undoubtedly had a similar impact on her son by contributing so much of her time to help others in far corners of the world. “He just wants to get together with kids, have fun and do something for a good cause,” said Creelman. “I’m super proud. He’s a good kid.” According to mom, Brady is determined to take it a step further and go on the next trip with EVE to help first-hand. The idea for the donation party originally came from a friend who held a charity birthday of his own, and Creelman said it’s becoming

dedicated to educating communities about the prevention of sexual assault and family violence around the world. The eight-year-old’s mother Lisa Creelman has been involved in the group since its inception in 2012. “It’s a nice thing to do,” said Brady before his survivor team gathered for their first event. “I don’t need that many presents . . . I know my parents are going to give me a present no matter what.” All of the kids who attend get a bit of an education as well, according to EVE’s Debbie Davidson who will be leading the group’s next trip to Uganda. “That Brady is giving up presents is huge for a kid his age,” she

a bit of a neighbourhood trend in Promontory. Saturday’s gathering raised $350 for the organization and was the third time Brady had given up his gifts for a good cause. Not able to wait for a birthday, some young Yarrow do-gooders were inspired to sell lemonade and candy on a trip to Vancouver Island with their grandparents. Brooklyn Hornsby, 8, and her six-year-old brother Owen set up a lemonade stand with their cousin Lola Henkel, 6, to raise money for the British Columbia Children’s Hospital. “I thought it would be really nice to donate to the Children’s hospital because I thought there are lots of children whose lives we can save,” said Brooklyn at their grandparents’ house in Chilliwack early in September. The Hornsby children’s prematurely born cousins had previously stayed in the hospital, she said, so she was inspired to help others with the same needs. All three kids were visiting their grandmother Judy Hornsby to sign the $250 cheque she was writing to give to the hospital. While there might be a far lower percentage of Canadians under 15 giving to charity, it could be a number that’s growing. But even if kids are more generous, don’t count on seeing a StatsCan “child kindness” metric any time soon.

B.C. faces many growth challenges

◗ Publisher

S

tatistics Canada’s latest population projections do not bode well for B.C.’s future on a number of counts. The federal agency has B.C. falling to fourth-largest province in the country, with Alberta moving ahead of it to third. This is projected to happen over the next 20 years. B.C. will still be growing—but at a lesser rate than Alberta is projected to grow. Perhaps more dramatically, B.C.’s population of seniors is expected to grow the most, to 27 per cent of the population by 2038. This is a higher-than-usual percentage of seniors. Their needs bring new challenges to an economy which is already hobbled by minimal growth, and to a province where every resource-based proposal is met with a fury of opposition, leading to very few economic growth options coming to fruition. A province cannot thrive long-term without economic growth. B.C. is already an expensive place to live, with housing prices in the Lower Mainland among the highest in the country. At the same time, few younger people have the opportunity to make really good incomes, and are thus handicapped from getting ahead. The provincial government is trying to expand jobs in the province by working hard to attract LNG plants and at least having an open mind on pipelines, mines and other projects. It meets opposition at almost every turn, and many B.C. residents simply don’t understand economics. B.C. weather and scenery are great, but they don’t pay the bills.

Time to include dental health

T

here are many reasons why some Canadians choose not to go to the dentist, but a new report released recently from the Canadian Academy of Health Sciences (CAHS) found that cost is a major factor—and that Canada’s most vulnerable populations have the highest rates of dental decay, pain and disease and at the same time the worst access to this much needed healthcare service. The price tag for hospital care and most physician services is covered through our publicly-funded healthcare system, but dental care is largely paid for privately in Canada. The CAHS report reveals that a whopping 95 per cent of dental care is paid out-of-pocket or through private dental insurance and is delivered in private dental offices. The remaining five per cent is covered through a hodgepodge of public health programs offered federally and provincially, targeting the needs of specific populations, with many falling through the cracks. So what happens when you don’t have dental insurance? The report found that almost half of all

PAUL ALLISON Be Our Guest Canadians without dental insurance— commonly, new Canadians, the elderly, people working in insecure jobs and for low wages, and their children—avoid visiting a dentist due to costs. In fact, those in the poorest income group were almost four times more likely to avoid the dentist due to costs than the richest group of Canadians. Vulnerable Canadians with difficulty accessing dental care are also those with the most dental pain, the greatest difficulty eating a healthy diet and the ones with the highest levels of gum disease, which in turn can increase their risk for general health problems, such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease. In other words, those who need dental care the most are the least likely to be able to get it, and the ones who suffer the most because of it. It may also be costing all of us through increased visits to

already crowded emergency rooms and physician offices, and valuable time lost from work, school and other activities. There are other reasons that people skip seeing their dentist, such as lack of transportation, fear of dental treatment and the dental office, and misunderstandings between dental professionals and certain groups in the population. These complex issues have complex solutions. But they cannot be addressed without first addressing equity in access to dental care. The CAHS report finds that inequalities in oral disease and access to dental care in Canada are greater than inequalities in general health problems and medical care. What might surprise many is that Canada actually provides less publicly-funded dental care than the United States—and, internationally, Canada is among the lowest funders of dental healthcare programs. Inequality in access to dental care is but one manifestation of the increasing inequalities in Canadian society and it needs to be addressed. With societal changes such as the increasing propor-

tion of the population who are elderly and the decreasing proportion of the population with dental insurance, difficulty accessing dental care is only going to increase unless we start acting now. All people living in Canada should have reasonable access to dental care. We need to bring dentistry into the general healthcare system by having some dental clinics in hospitals and community health centres. We need to explore the use of a variety of dental and other health professionals delivering care in a variety of settings. And we need to explore the financing of dental care for vulnerable groups—including anomalies in tax legislation that help those with dental insurance but not those without. We need concerted professional, government and community action now to begin to address these issues so that many Canadians will get the dental healthcare they so desperately need. ◗ Paul Allison is an advisor with EvidenceNetwork.ca, Dean in the Faculty of Dentistry at McGill University, and Chair of the CAHS panel on “Improving access to oral healthcare for vulnerable people living in Canada.” - www.troymedia.com

Can local MP explain why bill targets only unions?

Editor: The government says that members should have the right to see where their dues are being spent. They already do. A paying member can ask to see the finances of their union. To make a bill to make it law for not just members but other Canadian to see the finances of an organization in which they have no financial ties is unacceptable. My question is why is the government just limiting it to unions not other groups or other independent businesses, groups, organizations. Can our MP for Chilliwack explain why union organizations are being targeted and no others? Antony Paller Chilliwack

They’re trying to bury a dead skunk

Editor: W.C. Fields’ line “Never give a sucker an even break, or smarten up a chump” has never been better executed than by the Conservative government and their farmer-disenfranchisment policies. Their first move upon election in 2006 was to tear up the farmer-railcar agreement. This agreement would have given farmers a place at the grain transportation table, and while it wouldn’t have solved all the marketing problems from last year it would have at least given farmers a look behind the curtain. This move was followed by taking away the community pasture network that farmers have relied on for decades, destroying the PFRA and the

tree nursery, vaporizing the support that farmers had through the margin-based Agristability program, and weakening the Canadian Grain Commission. In parallel was the defunding and destruction of the grain varietal development and research capacity. Decimation of the Canadian Wheat Board (CWB) was next—farmers were disenfranchised and not allowed to vote on the matter according to the existing law, taxpayers were billed an unnecessary $349 million in 2011, and the $16 billion world-leading exporter was reduced from a business to a political maneuver with a few hundred million in assets. Predictably the destruction of order-

ly marketing through the real CWB cost farmers $4 billion in lost income for the 2013 crop (money that ended up in grain company pockets, lost sales and demurrage charges). With financial cover-ups and fast-tracking the give-away of farmer-paid CWB assets, it looks like the government is trying to bury a dead skunk as fast as they can. An ag. minister from Ontario or B.C. could not have accomplished this much destruction. No, the minister had to be a short-term thinker from the prairies where Conservative votes could be taken for granted. Somewhere W.C Fields is feeling warm and fuzzy all over again.

activities and presented with more opportunities than they had in Cubs. But as Scout Troop Leader Jeff Brown explains, it’s at this point—the graduation from Cubs to Scouts— that enrolment in the program drops drastically. First Fairfield, for example, has between 20 and 30 kids signed up for both Cubs and Beavers, which spans the five to seven age range. Both of the younger groups even have healthy waiting lists—and this trend of high enrolment is true for scouting groups across Chilliwack. But in stark contrast, only seven kids have signed up to be First Fairfield scouts. “I think in the Cub program, the kids get a little restless,” Brown says. “They feel like they’ve outgrown the program itself, and they feel like going on to the scout program is more of the same.” This couldn’t be further from the truth. Brown reels off a list of activities on tap for scouts: hiking, snowshoeing, canoeing, mountain biking, climbing and rappelling, back-country camping and cooking. “Going up, the programs start to be more of an adventure,” he says. “In the Scout program, we focus on a narrower spectrum of things, and actually do more.” Scout troops seem to work best with at least a dozen scouts, Brown says. With numbers dropping to around half that, things become more difficult. “It’s hard to create activities, because everybody has to be avail-

› Faith Today BY EVANS HUNDERMARK Mountain View Church

I

was told a little while ago that “you are what you eat.” If this is true then I am convinced that church must eat plenty of pizza. Let me elaborate my thoughts. Firstly, a great pizza has the right base or foundation. If you don’t have a good base, you just have stew, or a mess. A good pizza needs a good base. Our lives are like this, as is the church. There are many options offering foundations on which to build our lives, but not all of them are good options. In fact, some will look good, but turn out to be shaky ground. Jesus told the story of two men building houses in Luke Chapter 6. One built on the sand and when the rain came and the floods rose, his house was washed away. The other built his home digging a deep foun-

Church is like a messy pizza dation into the rock, and his house proved immovable, regardless of the storms that raged. Our lives need a solid foundation and Jesus offers that to you. He is a firm and solid rock on which to establish your life, and the life or church founded on Jesus will never be shaken. Secondly, a great pizza is made up of a mix of toppings. Some of those toppings can be consumed in great amounts, like pepperoni, but other toppings are best in small amounts. This does not decrease their value to the pizza though, the onion and the garlic are still necessary for great pizza. A good church is similar. It is made up of diverse people, all different

and unique in their own way. Some of these people are great to hang out with and you want to spend much time with them. Others, like the garlic seem best in small doses, but nevertheless, with the unique gifts, flavours and aromas they bring into your life, they are valuable to you. In fact, every person you meet in life has some value to add to yours and should therefore be treasured. Romans 12 reminds us that God has gifted each believer differently and uniquely, and when these diverse people with their diverse gifts come together, something beautiful happens—church. But just as the toppings are messy on a pizza, so people with their human

failings and the stain of sin are also messy. We judge one another, hurt one another and fail one another, so another important ingredient is necessary—the cheese. It holds the pizza together, and when the heat is on, it combines all the flavours and aromas of the pizza together into a beautiful symphony of nose-tingling, mouthwatering delight. The cheese reminds me of the work of the Holy Spirit in the church. He convicts us when we do wrong offending one another or sinning against God. He gives us unique gifts and shows us how to work together. He holds us together in a spirit of unity as the body of Christ, and when

the heat is turned up and life is hard, it is the work of the Holy Spirit in the church that causes the church to release a beautiful aroma that attracts the hurting, the needy, the lost sinner, the broken hearted and the captive. So yes, church is like a pizza. Sometimes it is messy, seemingly filled with hypocrites and broken hurting human beings (there’s always room for one more!), but it is a beautiful mess, one worth biting into. I would like to offer you a personal invite to visit a church in our city this Sunday (there are more than 60 to choose from). It won’t be perfect (none of them are), it will be messy (there are people involved), but it will be satisfying experience. . . “Taste and see that the Lord is good!” Psalm 34:8. ◗ Evans Hundermark is a pastor with Mountain View Church.

Chilliwack-Agassiz a hot spot for aboriginal business BY JOANNE LEE-YOUNG Vancouver Sun

T

he Fraser Valley is home to swaths of land owned by several First Nations and many aboriginal businesses here get considerable support from non-profit groups such as the Sto:lo Community Futures, says Bryan Gallagher, who has been doing his PhD on indigenous entrepreneurship at Simon

Fraser University’s Beedie School of Business. These are run by community volunteers and not only provide businesses with funding, but also key contacts for finding customers, he says. “It acts as an advocate in the community more so than what these businesses would find if they were in Vancouver or Richmond.” In part, this has

spawned a mini-cluster of First Nations-owned businesses in the eastern Fraser Valley. Almost 80 of the 300 First Nations-owned businesses that a new B.C. government-funded project is tracking in the Lower Mainland and south coast are found in Chilliwack and Agassiz alone. The Sto:lo Community Futures

itself estimates there are over 150 aboriginal businesses in the wider surrounding area. They include restaurants, chiropractic offices, art galleries, gas stations and towing companies, but one of the most high-profile ventures is the Eagle Landing Shopping Centre, which is being developed by a Squiala

First Nation holding company. At the helm has been David Jimmie, the 36-year-old chief of the Squiala First Nation, who went to the University of the Fraser Valley, worked as a forest firefighter and in construction, and travelled the world before returning to work on the multimillion-dollar project.

The first half of the 21-acre site was developed with two other investors, a REIT and the investment arm of the land developer, says Jimmie. Now, with nearly 300,000 square feet in retail space that is 98-per-cent leased (with tenants including Walmart, Cineplex and Home Depot) and

the building of a new community hall facility finished, Jimmie plans to approach lenders for financing for the second phase and have the rest of the project be “100 per cent bandowned.” “It’s the largest commercial site in Chilliwack and has created jobs for the community,” says Jimmie.

Legendary local motorcyclist honoured yet again BY GREG LAYCHAK glaychak@chilliwacktimes.com

L

ocal motorcyclist Phillip Funnell was recognized for his accomplishments on two wheels last Saturday during the Greater Vancouver Motorsport Pioneers Society’s (GVMPS) 14th annual induction ceremony at Shannon Hall in Cloverdale. The 78-year-old veteran motorcycle racer takes his uniquely customized bikes all over the world. In 1968, he rode across Canada from Vancouver to Halifax in January to test one motorcycle in minus-40 C temperatures. Eleven years later, the long-distance biker turned south, setting out on a BMW from Vancouver to travel all the way to Cape Horn, Chile. He then took the only remaining direction, and crossed ice fields to get to Tuktoyaktuk. The 47,000-kilometre trip took 11 weeks and three days, during which Funnell set records for traveling 2,500 kilometres in 24 hours and 5,800 kilometres in 36 hours. His wheels have touched pavement in 74 countries, every U.S. state and nearly all the provinces and territories in Canada.

Funnell has been recognized by the Canadian Motorcycle Hall of Fame for these past achievements, and he shows no signs of slowing. A ride across Russia and Europe is now in the works for the seasoned rider. Funnell and 16 other contributors joined the ranks of 215 pioneers of various motorsports Saturday, when the GVMPS recognized and recorded their accomplishments. “The Motorsport Pioneers Society continues to recognize individuals who have made major contributions in past years as a way to celebrate this history,” said GVMPS president Jim Greenwood. Funnell still lives that history. He loves his motorcycle and being on the road. “It’s given me a lot of enjoyment,” he said looking at his unique custom made sleeper-bike. “I like the crowds it gathers.” Funnell said most people don’t suspect he’s asleep in it when he’s parked. But the best part about his ride, according to the motorcycle vet, is its convenience. “Any old driveway will do,” he said. It’s a philosophy that is sure to see the old hand across Russia and Europe.

Rivalry heats up

T

he third annual Bauer BCHL Showcase has come and gone from Prospera Centre and so did well over 100 scouts from the NHL, NCAA, CIS and BCIHL ranks. The Chiefs scooped up two wins in two games, a 6-3 effort over Powell River that featured a hattrick from 20 year old Jake Hand and a 2-1 outcome against Merritt that saw first star Luke McColgan tally a goal and shorthanded assist. This coming weekend Jason Tatarnic’s squad will host the official home opener on Saturday at 7 p.m. with the Surrey Eagles flying into town. There will be a barbecue from 5 to 7 p.m. that Fraser Valley FC U14 Girls are hosting with $5 for a hot dog, pop, and a bag of chips. The first 1,000 fans through the doors will be handed the popular Chiefs fridge magnet and once inside you can get an autograph and pick up a calendar from BC Lions Felions, Alexandria and Nicole. And, we were going to keep this a surprise, but I am too excited not to mention that Sam and his staff from Mt. Waddington’s Outdoors are going to be rapelling from the rafters of Prospera Centre and tossing out prizes to lucky fans. And of course, on the ice, the Chiefs-Eagles rivalry will be renewed this weekend and there is no shortage of stories from the many seasons of battles. A couple come to the front of my head, during the 1996-97 season rugged Chiefs blueliner Bob Gassoff was perhaps practising his intimidation mode for later in life when he would become a United States Navy Seal. If memory serves me

Barry Douglas Chiefs Report correctly, it was the middle of the season, and Gassoff was in the trenches against Surrey superstar Scott Gomez. Depending on who you ask, Gassoff’s stick unintentionally or intentionally came across the arm/wrist of the mega-talented Gomez which caused some serious pain. Rumour has it that Gomez considered not coming back to play hockey at all but he toughed it out and would go on to dominate the BCJHL and eventually light up the NHL as well. Then there was the famous Jeff Yopik from Travis Banga game seven overtime winner in South Surrey in 1999. No less than one-half of Eagles Nest was jammed with Chiefs fans who seemed as loud as the current Seattle Seahawks 12s. I was fortunate to call that goal on the radio, “And I’ll say it again Chiefs fans, Yopik scooooores, for the first time since 1994-95 your Chiefs are off to the BC Hockey League Finals!” This goal and win was extra, extra special as the Eagles swept the Chiefs during the previous two playoffs. This season’s Chiefs-Eagles match ups will be a bit of an extended sibling rivalry, if you will, as my cousin Blaine Neufeld is the new head coach and general manager of the Eagles so when you are cheering feel free to provide an extra clap or two so I can continue to have bragging rights for the best fans in the BCHL.

Jake lends a Hand in Chiefs victory

T

he Chiefs cleaned up last weekend at the Prospera Centre, winning both of their season-openers while hosting the Bauer BCHL 2014 Showcase. In their first regular season game Chilliwack met Powell River for the second time in a week, taking a similar 6-3 victory, despite lagging in shots on goal for most of the game. Forward Jake Hand provided three of those goals with his hat trick contribution. It’s a strong start for the second-year player, as Hand pocketed nearly a quarter of his total 2013-14 season goals in the very first game of the new season. Two of those goals were the

only points on the scoreboard in the first 20 minutes of play. Hand’s teammate, Jake Larson who put up three goals in four exhibition games, got his first official BCHL goal during the second period against the Kings. Early in the final period the game was tied at three goals each, but the balance was shortlived. Eighty-two seconds later, rookie forward Liam Ferguson put the puck away to take back a Chiefs lead that only grew until the final buzzer.

2 1

Hand’s third score was next, followed by preseason star Craig Puffer’s goal to finish the game. Sunday’s game proved to be a much closer matchup against the Merritt Centennials. The Chiefs edged out their visitors 2-1 in a nail-biter that looked uncertain up until the last seconds of play. The game started out in Merritt’s favour with a first period goal by Michael Ederer in a penalty-riddled 20 minutes. Chiefs’ Luke McColgan evened things up in the second period with an off-balance shot

that found its home past Centennials’ goalie Jonah Imoo. And nine minutes into the final frame, Kurt Black scored the game-winning goal shorthanded. Chilliwack goalie Mitchell Datz proved his worth up to the final seconds when he stifled an end-of-game scramble at the Chiefs’ net. Datz stopped 33 shots on goal, only letting Ederer’s shot past.

◗ The Chiefs play two games against the Surrey Eagles this weekend. Friday’s matchup will be in Surrey, with the two teams returning to Chilliwack Saturday for a 7 p.m. start at Prospera Centre.

The atom Red Giants faced off against the atom White team last weekend with White coming out on top 31-19. Red had two touchdowns in the first half— both major-yard runs by quarterback Deaglan Perry. His lead blockers Hayden Strieling and Brayden Fraser were able to open up the field for Perry, allowing him to work his magic. Red finished the game with one last touchdown in the fourth quarter, but it wasn’t enough to catch the dominant White Atoms. Next weekend the atom Red Giants battle the Mission Niner’s for their first away game of the season. Atom White will host the atom Blue Giants in Chilliwack.

Peewee Red versus Blue

The peewee Red Giants (4-0) remain unbeaten with a 12-6 win in an all-local match up with the peewee Blue Giants. Defence won the game for Red. There was constant pressure by the defensive line with notable performances by

Junior Bantam

The junior bantam Giants dropped a close 8-2 decision to the Mission Niners this past weekend. Mission opened the scoring in the first quarter due to a defensive error by the giants. From there both teams struggled to get any sort of offence going. Defensive tackles Mason Murphy Corey Lamb and Brock Cote played notable games along with offensive tackles Grayson Hardie and Hunter Mullis.

➤ GIANTS FOOTBALL Tyler Kelly, Dayton Roger, Daniel King and rookie Gavin Cleal. Travis Richley came up with a key interception and Trent Cote made a crucial game-saving tackle. This set up the offence to march down the field clearing a path for two touchdowns from fullback Austin Martin and quarterback Logan Buchwitz. Trent Cote again showed his skills with an onside kick recovery. Miscues were the main story for Blue’s offence. Fumbles, dropped balls, and poor downfield blocking bogged down the Blue Giants. It was defence that kept Blue in the game until the end. Dhillon Myers had an exceptional game leading his team with multiple tackles for Red yard losses. The Blue Giants will play next week against North Langley, and their Red peers will head to Abbotsford.

Bantam

Although the final score does not reflect it, the Giants had the potential to win their 35-6 loss to the South Delta Rams. Had the Giants caught a few more passes, been a little tighter on defence, and executed at a higher level on special teams, the score would have been close. To their credit, even when a victory seemed out of reach, the team continued with a spirited effort. Chilliwack started the game with a brilliant defensive move by { See GIANTS, page A22 }

hen Ron “Red” Dolman took his seat in the Agassiz Speedway stands Saturday afternoon it was the end of his 43rd season attending the local races. Born and raised in Chilliwack, Dolman makes the trip to watch stock cars on the oval track as often as possible. “ I ’ v e missed a lot in the last five years because of health issues,” Ron Dolman said Dolman, 83. “But I never missed a race when I was healthy.” He saw the opening of the track back in 1971 and used to work as a corner man, keeping an eye on the cars while they raced. Dedicated race fans like Dolman come from Chilliwack and

Since Langley’s Action Raceway (previously Langley Speedway) closed its gates in 1984, Agassiz Speedway is the only paved oval track stock car fans in the Fraser Valley can attend to see their sport within hours of driving or ferry rides. And the non-profit track is run by volunteers who want to see wheels spinning on its asphalt for years to come. Pat Shepanowsky, secretary of the club is one of those volun-

teers. She sits in the tower every race night running the computerized lap tracking system, which is only one of her many other responsibilities. Shepanowsky was elected to the executive committee at Agassiz Speedway 27 years ago, and worked almost every possible position at the track before— and since—that promotion. Her husband has been a race mechanic from when Shepanowsky was in high school, so there’s a long history and a deep connection for the pair with the raceway. It’s all about community,

according to Shepanowsky. “In some of the classes we’ve got fathers and sons racing together,” she said. Some of the drivers are too young to have licences, while others are over 70. But it’s not just the drivers and fans that keep the speedway going. All kinds of volunteers and donations from Agassiz, Chilliwack and the Fraser Valley ensure things run smoothly. Without their help the track wouldn’t exist, said Shepanowsky. And without the track, there wouldn’t be a stand filled with colourful characters, stories and friendships that span distance and decades. Dolman sat with his companions last Saturday ready for the season-closing races. He’s survived both his wife and son who he used to bring to the races. But he still has family at Agassiz Speedway. “As long as I can come,” said Dolman. “I’m gonna keep on coming.” ◗ The Agassiz Speedway late model awards banquet will be held on Nov. 1 at the Agassiz Agricultural Hall. Cocktails are at 5 p.m. followed by awards, dinner and dancing. Tickets are $40 before Oct. 28.

Elias makes local rugby history

A

group of women joined the scrum last Saturday, fielding the first women’s rugby team in the history of the Chilliwack Crusaders rugby club. The female Crusaders consist of mostly Sardis secondary players and recent graduates coming out of two spring campaigns from the school’s development league. It was a triumphant debut, with Chilliwack beating Langley RFC 31-7 at Yarrow Sportsfield.

Brown Bulls fundraiser

The Oldum Brown Bulls will play in Scotiabank’s Hockey for Alzheimer’s event Nov. 14-16 at Planet Ice. As part of an effort to raise the team minimum of $25,000 the group will hold a fundraising event at Garrison Bistro on Oct. 4, from 2 to 5 p.m. There will be wine, beer and tequila tasting

After trailing by seven at the end of the opening quarter, Danika Elias scored the first try of the team’s existence, with Sierra Hunter adding the convert to even the score at seven apiece. Karaline Heibner, Alicia Puckey and Kennedy Hunter all added tries to pull ahead while the team kept Langley at their single-try score. Team captain Hope Puckey scored the final points of the game

It ain’t your granddaddy’s library

W

hen is the last time you visited the public library? Has it been a while? What do you remember about libraries? A strict librarian with a hair bun telling you to shush? Nothing but books and studious people as far as the eye can see? No eating or drinking? Really? We’re still talking about libraries? Why would anyone need to go to a library? We can purchase eBooks and audio books and music from the Internet. We can purchase our own paper books at a bookstore or grocery store or pharmacy or gas station. We can get all the information we need from Google. And if we’re sitting in front of our home computer, there is no one telling us to “shush”. Here’s an update for those of you who haven’t been to the library in a while: 1) We generally don’t “shush” people unless they are shouting

SMITTY MILLER Loud Librarians obscenities or barking loudly. 2) You can eat and drink in the library . . . just bring enough to share with us. 3) Books are only a small part of what libraries are about . . . a very small part. 4) Information professionals generally agree that a high percentage of information found through search engines like Google is untrue or unproveable. Ever heard of the Pacific Northwest Tree Octopus? (Google it.) 5) The library provides free eBook and audiobook downloads of current titles. And we’ll even show you how to use your device. 6) All books rock. Free books are

better. 7) Librarians are cool. The City of Chilliwack now boasts three public libraries: Chilliwack (downtown), Sardis and Yarrow, all part of the Fraser Valley Regional Library (FVRL) system, the largest public library system in British Columbia. Now, every month in the Chilliwack Times, we’re going to tell you about all the stuff you can do and get at your local library. Look for the Loud Librarians column and prepare to be surprised. It ain’t your granddaddy’s library!

here’s a trophy up for grabs, and at this point it could be anyone’s game. On Oct. 3, you and seven of your closest friends could have the chance to battle for the coveted Smarty Pants Award at the annual Chilliwack Library quiz night. No topics are off limits, says community librarian and quiz night MC Smitty Miller, and no trivia is too trivial. Animals. Popular culture. History. It’s a night packed with Jeopardy-style categories and no end of

questions, hosted by the Friends of the Library—the group in charge of all the library’s fundraising and the brains behind quiz night. They’ve worked all year to compile the questions, and now every detail is locked in place. They’re ready to rock and roll—to buzz in and win. “I have the questions right here in a sealed envelope,” Miller says, patting a pile of papers on her desk. “No one’s allowed to see them but me.” Competition is fierce and feisty at quiz night—no surprise, considering the prizes up for grabs. The Friends of the Library have really outdone themselves this year,

I have a young family, a husband and three kids and my life is very complex. I needed choice, customization and spending a lot of money on glasses was something I couldn’t justify. My Great Glasses experience was awesome. I didn’t need an appointment for my eye test and I got three pairs of glasses for less than I paid for one pair at my regular optometrist. I couldn’t believe how great the deal was and how accommodating the staff were to me. I will not buy glasses anywhere but Great Glasses in the future. I’m so glad that Bruce was willing to fight for good customer value.

At 22.7 per cent, the rate of low-risk C-sections was higher than the 18.3 per cent rate across the Fraser Health Authority (FHA), 16.3 per cent for B.C. and 14.1 per cent for Canada. While the C-section rate jumped to 22.7 per cent in 2012-2013, it was just 16 per cent in 2011-2012. And while more C-sections were performed at CGH than elsewhere, fewer obstetric patients needed to be readmitted than just about any other hospital in the region. CGH’s obstetric readmission rate of 1.8 per cent falls below the national rate of two per cent, the FHA rate of 2.6 per cent and ARHCC rate of 3.2 per cent. CGH executive director Tracy Irwin said of the Your Health System tool the availability of “appropriate health data is a tremendous benefit to both the public and Fraser Health.” “Having reliable data means that we can review trends to highlight areas where we are doing well and areas that require improvement,” she told the Times. “Fraser Health tracks its own performance through real-time information systems, along with our recently published Health Care Report Cards, and this website from CIHI is another tool that we can use to help in that effort.” Irwin added that the data should not be used to rank facilities or for comparisons.

ith winter on the horizon, homeowners who live in locales with harsh winters are preparing their homes for a season spent largely indoors. Unlike the other seasons of the year, when homeowners can comfortably air out their homes by opening windows, winter offers no such opportunities to let nature improve indoor air quality. Such a reality can make a home uncomfortable as winter drags on. But that discomfort pales in comparison to the health risks presented by poor indoor air quality. Radon, volatile chemicals from fragrances used in conventional cleaners and lead from house dust are just a few of the many sources of indoor air pollution commonly found in homes, and these pollutants can be especially harmful in winter, when many people spend more time indoors thanks to harsh weather. But while you might not be able to change the weather so you can open windows in the wintertime, you can take steps to improve indoor air quality in your home. ◗ Clean the floors regularly. Dirty floors take their toll on a home’s indoor air quality. Dust that’s allowed to settle on floors may contain harmful chemicals and allergens that can lead to respiratory problems and additional uncomfortable health conditions. Clean your floors at least once per week during the winter months, ideally with a vacuum that’s equipped with a HEPA filter. The HEPA filter is important because it can prevent dust and dirt from being blown back out of the vacuum in the exhaust. After you have vacuumed, mop the floors as well, as even the most effective vacuums leave potentially harmful dust particles behind. A once-over with a mop and some hot water can remove any lingering dust left behind by the vacuum. ◗ Place a floor mat near every entrance. Winter is a messy season, and it’s easy to bring in the

aneling is a lowcost way to cover problem walls. In the 1960s and 1970s, paneling was very popular. Sold in large panels, paneling was relatively easy to hang, and quickly became a staple of dens and finished basements. But few of today’s homeowners are enamored with the look of faux wood paneling.

Cover the paneling Covering up the paneling is another tactic. Rather than coating the wall in paint, consider a wallpaper liner. Liners are essentially a thick, plain wallpaper that is applied on top of the paneling or used when dealing with damaged walls. In lieu of tearing down the walls and putting up new drywall, the liner will cover imperfections. Many of these products can be painted directly and may not require priming beforehand.

Remove the paneling The most labor-intensive way to give a paneled room a new look is to remove the paneling. Pry at a portion of the paneling in an inconspicuous spot in the room to determine which method was used to install the paneling. Some people only tack it into place with small, finishing nails, while others glue the paneling to the wall for a secure installation. Glue will be much more difficult to remove and could further damage the

walls and paneling in the process. If the paneling is too difficult to remove, covering or painting it may be a smarter option. Small nails can be removed by pulling at the panels.

Stay disciplined and don’t bust the budget Plan for the unforeseen

H

ome improvement projects range from small scale undertakings that can be tackled in a single weekend to large remodels that can take several months to complete. While no two projects are the same, every home improvement project demands that homeowners dip into their pockets and spend some money. Much like the scale of projects varies greatly, so, too, do the financial commitments required of homeowners to make those projects a reality. But no matter the size of the project, homeowners can find ways to stretch their budgets without sacrificing the quality of their improvements. ◗ Do your homework. Before you decide to make changes to your home, it’s best to first do some research into any potential projects you’re considering. Many homeowners have decided to dive into a project before they fully realize its scope and cost, and going in blind can bust a budget, turning what might have seemed like a relatively simple project into a money pit. Understanding just what a project entails and how much it’s likely to cost can give homeowners an idea of what they can afford and where they might be able to stretch their budgets. For example, if you want to replace your kitchen countertops but can’t afford engineered quartz countertops, you might be able to find a less expensive alternative, such as tile, that you like just as much. But it’s best to research such alternatives before you decide to replace your existing countertops. If you can’t find a less expensive alternative, you might want to postpone the project until you can grow your budget. But starting the project without first grasping its true cost is a recipe for disaster, so do your homework before you find your toolbox and start working. ◗ Build unforeseen expenses into your budget. Another way to stay within your budget is to include budget-busting unforeseen expenses into the budget from the getgo. Whether you’re doing the project yourself or paying a contractor, near-

ly every home improvement project will present some unforeseen, and costly, hurdles. For example, you might find mold inside the walls when you’re converting a basement, and it can cost a pretty penny to make that mold go away. If you go into the project expecting such hurdles, then the financial sting of addressing them won’t prove too great a burden. But if the mold catches you and your budget completely off guard, you might be forced to overextend that budget or make sacrifices elsewhere in order to complete the project. Build some contingency money, including permit and permit fees, into your home improvement project to safeguard against such unforeseen issues. ◗ Get to work. If you’re hiring a contractor, speak to him or her before signing a contract to see if there is anywhere you can pitch in to keep the labour costs low. You might be able to pitch in during the demolition phase, saving the cost of paying your contractor’s workers to tear down walls or remove debris you can just as easily remove yourself. Another way to pitch in is to do the end-of-day cleanup yourself. Any role you play with regard to labour will likely need to be negotiated upfront, but you can save yourself a substantial amount of money on labour if you’re willing to get your hands dirty. ◗ Determine if piecemeal is the most affordable option. Sometimes it makes sense to tackle one project at a time, while other times you might want to combine projects to save on the cost of materials. For instance, if your ultimate goal is to install wood flooring throughout your home, determine if it makes more financial sense to install the flooring all at once rather than doing one or two rooms at a time. You might save by buying all of your materials at once rather than buying a small amount of materials several times over the next several years. Home improvement projects often go a long way toward making a home more enjoyable for its owners and inhabitants. And while such projects can be costly, homeowners who stay disciplined can still get their dream homes without busting their budgets.

Homeowners willing and able to pitch in on their home projects can save themselves a substantial amount of money on labour costs.

Paint-free ways to brighten up your home kept closed a lot more pleasant. Plants and flowers also can improve indoor air quality. Several studies, including one published in the Journal for the American Society for Horticultural Science, have shown that houseplants improve indoor air quality by filtering out volatile organic compounds, or VOCs, that can be harmful to human health. That’s especially important come late fall and winter, when homeowners typically shut their windows and keep them shut until spring, making it difficult for fresh air to enter a home. ◗ Invest in some colorful throw pillows. Natural sunlight brightens a room come spring and summer. But sunlight is increasingly scarce as fall turns into winter, and rooms that do not boast too many colorful accents can quickly grow drab as summertime sunlight dwindles. Instead of buying new furniture, invest in some

colorful throw pillows to give a room a more vibrant look. Patterns can be mixed and matched to provide some contrast and transform a room from somewhere to spend time into a sight to behold. ◗ Paper the walls. While many of today’s homeowners prefer paint to wallpaper, those who want a less permanent solution to brighten up their homes may want to consider removable wallpaper. Such paper is

less expensive than traditional wallpaper, and many do-it-yourselfers find removable wallpaper is easy to both install and remove. Choose a colorful pattern that can turn an otherwise plain wall into a potent palette that adds some life to your home’s interior. Because removable wallpaper does not require a significant financial investment, you can experiment with various colors or change things up each month if you so

desire. ◗ Add some artwork. Another way to add color to the walls inside your home without dusting off your paintbrush is to hang some colorful artwork. Paintings that feature bold colors tend to draw your immediate attention when you enter a room, and that quality can make you forget the room is not benefitting from natural light. If you want to go the extra mile, find a painting that features colors which match

throw pillows or other accessories in the room. This way your walls and your accessories are working in concert to make a room more colorful. ◗ Rug it out. A patterned throw rug is another accessory that can effectively brighten a room without much effort or financial investment on the part of homeowners. When choosing a throw rug, find one that’s colorful but does not clash considerably with

existing furnishings, as you don’t want the rug to draw attention for all the wrong reasons. You have more freedom with regard to rugs if you’re furnishing an empty room, as you can choose whichever rug you like and then choose additional furnishings based on the rug. Homes tend to darken as late fall turns into winter. But homeowners can brighten their homes in various ways, even if they prefer not to paint.

utumn is a beautiful time of year marked by pleasant temperatures and colorful fall foliage. But as vibrant as nature can be in the weeks after summer has ended, homeowners know that the shortened days of autumn mean less light inside their homes, which can become dreary even in the weeks before the arrival of winter. Many homeowners pick up their paintbrushes in an effort to make their homes more colorful. But homeowners need not embrace their inner Picasso to brighten their homes’ interiors. The following are a handful of paint-free ways to add some splashes of color to your home this fall. ◗ Bring nature inside. Flowers and plants can make colorful additions to a home’s interior.

Remodelling insurance can protect homeowners

M

any steps are involved in a successful home remodeling project. A common mistake made by homeowners is failing to consult with a homeowners’ insurance agent before beginning a major home overhaul. The National Association of Insurance Commissioners advises reviewing your home insurance policy before any significant work is done on your home. The right amount of coverage will protect your assets both during construction and afterward when your home is worth more. According to the independent consumer insurance website Insure.

com, one in four remodeling projects will increase the value of a home by more than 25 per cent, so there’s a good chance you will need to increase your coverage to compensate for renovations done on the home. Many insurance companies require you to insure your home for at least 80 per cent of its replacement value. If you have added an extension or installed an inground pool, you may have raised the value of your property enough to necessitate an insurance policy change. Begin by talking with your insurance company and explain the scope of the planned renovations. Inquire

whether you will need to update or amend your current insurance policy to protect yourself financially during the renovation. This is particularly important for those who will be doing the work themselves or asking a friend or family member for help. While many contractors have business and general liability insurance to protect themselves if a worker is injured, homeowners may need sufficient liability protection in the event a non-contractor gets hurt working on your home. Your insurance company may have other types of insurance to protect you further if you are planning a very large project. Failure to ask

about coverage before starting the renovations puts you at risk. If you will be using contractors and subcontractors, be sure that they are insured and bonded. Should they damage your home or be injured during the renovation, their insurance will cover any resulting expenses. However, if they are not insured or bonded, you may be held liable through your own insurance policy or you may have to pay out of pocket. Keep all receipts and document the progress of the renovation. You may need this information to present to your insurance carrier after the renovation is complete. This way you

can request a new appraisal of the property and secure adequate insurance coverage. Certain improvements may make you eligible for discounts. For example, a new heating system, energy efficient appliances or an alarm system may qualify you for rebates or lower premiums. Homeowners may think they have covered all of their bases when preparing for a home renovation project. However, it also is essential to consider insurance needs before you begin work and then again when the project has been completed and the value of the home has increased.

Making home projects a family affair ◗ Emphasize safety. Children should understand that tools serve a distinct purpose and that they are not toys. Identify and explain the dangerous pieces of equipment and instruct children that they should not touch or turn on tools without an adult nearby. Go over the proper ways to handle the tools and explain the purposes of each device. Make sure everyone is wearing safety equipment, including eye protection, gloves and ear protection, while handling the tools. ◗ Demonstrate and then let kids try. Children will not have the skills to perform more intricate tasks, but older kids can hammer some nails, mix paint or even cut wood with supervision. Assign tasks based on the child’s age. For example, a preteen may be able to saw wood, while a kindergartener can hand over nails and tools. Illustrate the correct way to get things done and then have children mirror your actions. ◗ Attempt an easy project first. Painting a room, building a planter box, or another less complicated project can help parents gauge their kids’ abilities. Involving children in home improvement projects can teach then new skills, give them a greater appreciation of the work that goes into maintaining a house, instill a sense of pride in youngsters, and provide a great chance for kids and their parents to spend quality together.

ackling home improvement projects with kids in tow can be challenging. But if kids are old enough, moms and dads can enlist their youngsters’ help when working on projects around the house. Not only can adults keep closer tabs on kids’ activities, but involving kids in home projects also lets parents instill important and practical lessons at the same time. When asked to pitch in on home projects, young kids may feel proud they can lend a hand with such a “grown-up” task. With the right instruction, children of all ages can get involved with fix-up projects and learn new skills in the process. ◗ Include children from the start. When beginning a project, parents can make their kids a part of the design and planning process, welcoming the input of younger members of the family, especially if renovations will impact spaces they use directly. Draft a list of supplies and ask questions of the kids regarding what supplies they think will have to go into completing the project. ◗ Shop as a family. Although it may slow you down, take children along to the home improvement store so you can purchase supplies together. Let youngsters help you as you choose materials for the project. This way they can see how the raw materials will turn into the finished renovation.

➤ From growing food at home to the politics of the ALR, The Eaten Path is an ongoing feature that looks at what we eat, how it is produced and the path our food takes to our table.

Two local businesses win provincial awards BY PAUL J. HENDERSON phenderson@chilliwacktimes.com

The other local winner was Live! Chilliwack in the “favourite local advocate” category. The online advocate for all things Chilliwack is the brainchild of Dale Johnson and Jason Pettyjohn. Live! Chilliwack grew out of the first Cash Mob Chilliwack event in June 2012 organized by Johnson and local realtor Scott McVetty. From Cash Mob sprung Live! Chilliwack as well as local business SparkSpot Creative Agency. As a spinoff of Cash Mob, the guys also launched the Field to Fork dining event last September. That event involved pairing four local restaurants—Bozzini’s, Bravo, Jacksons and Lakeside Beach Club—with four local farmers to create a meal to put on the menu for a brief time. Field to Fork is back this year Sept. 30 to Oct. 4 and involves area farmers and food producers joining up with Bravo, Bozzini’s, Little Beetle Bistro, Society Gathering House and Vita Bella Bistro. Some of those farmers/producers include Old Yale Brewing, Smits & Co.w Farm Cheese, Forstbauer Farm and Anita’s Organic Mill. ◗ For full details on this year’s Field to Fork event visit livechilliwack.com/ tag/field-to-fork.

wo Chilliwack businesses were named B.C.’s best in a provincewide online contest voted on by the public. The 2014 We Heart Local Awards announced last week True North Kettle Corn and Live! Chilliwack were winners in their respective categories. There were 337 nominated businesses in 15 categories in the We Heart Local Awards including, favourite farmers’ market, store to buy local, local cheese maker, local brewery and local food truck, among others. True North Kettle Corn was not only chosen as “favourite local sweet treat” but won the “Best in Show” honour as the local favourite with the highest votes total. It received 1,475 votes in the online contest. (One ironic twist about a local food award for a business based in a city known for one agricultural product above all others—i.e. corn—is that True North uses “non-GMO corn kernels from Nebraska,” according to their website.) Chilliwack seems to have a lock on this category as local pastry producer Kick Ass Cakes won in 2013.

Take a seat and join panel as they discuss ‘agriburbia’

A

s suburban development expands into rural areas, the urban/rural divide gets blurred. A new “agriburbia” is emerging, where food producers and suburban development converge, creating new and complex challenges. The University of the Fraser Valley (UFV), located in “agriburban” communities such as Abbotsford and Chilliwack, is well situated to examine this geographical phenomenon. UFV presents Life in Agriburbia, a panel discussion and exhibition on the issues that arise when suburbia and farmland converge, at its Abbotsford campus on Oct 1. Following the discussion, UFV will host an opening reception for an exhibit on Life in Agriburbia in the UFV Gallery (Room B136). The exhibit will run at the UFV Gallery from Sept. 26 to Oct. 10. Dr. Lenore Newman, UFV Canada Research Chair in Food Security and the Environment, will present at the forum, along with agricultural community representatives Kim Sutherland (Ministry of Agriculture); Amir Maan (Maan Farms and UFV alumnus), Brendan Hurley (Vancouver planner), Hannah Wittman (food, nutrition, and health expert from UBC); and Tom Baumann (UFV Agriculture). The speakers will discuss the impact of the Agriculture Land Reserve (ALR) and how decisions on land use are made.

Newman, who coined the term agriburbia, will introduce the panel discussion and exhibit. Agriburban development requires a delicate balancing act as planners struggle to meet national food production requirements and local residential demands, according to Newman. “As Vancouver continues to grow beyond the Port Mann Bridge, we see how demand for residential space competes with food productions in one of Canada’s most fertile agricultural areas,” she says. The panel discussion will feature lightning talks from a variety of experts who will each speak for 10 minutes. After the session, all experts will be available for the audience to engage over refreshments in the gallery. Life in Agriburbia, led by Newman, is a multi-partner project involving UFV geography students who engaged with a cross-section of the community to understand and examine the evolution of the land reserve evolved. The project also studies land excluded from protection. The Reach Gallery Museum in Abbotsford is supporting the project with its own Life in Agriburbia exhibit from Nov. 8 to 30. The exhibit showcases maps and photographs clearly illustrating the changes to the agricultural and environmental landscape in the Fraser Valley over the past 40 years. As the provincial ALR marks its 40th anniversary this year, and significant

changes to it are being considered by the provincial government, it’s timely to examine the impact that the ALR has had on the British Columbia land-

scape, Newman says. Understanding the issues that the ALR face is an important one for Abbotsford as applications to have land excluded reg-

ularly occur, according to Newman. “The ALR was founded before geographic information system technology was available, which created a

situation where changes to the land reserve are surprisingly poorly understood,” she says. The Life in Agriburbia project was funded in part

through a grant from the Abbotsford Community Foundation, and is a project of the Agriburban Research Centre (ARC). Visit ufv.ca/agriburban.

Avenue Q follows the story of a brighteyed young college graduate named Princeton, who moves to New York’s most multi-cultural street as part of his journey to find love, a job, and his purpose in life. He quickly ends up rubbing shoulders with some of the most eccentric neighbours you could hope for, who gleefully take Princeton on the most bizarre journey of self-discovery ever put to stage! While interacting with characters obsessed with singing and dancing about homosexuality, racism, pornography and inter-species relationships, Princeton’s (and the audience’s!) eyes are opened to the facts of life, Avenue Q style! Originally penned by American playwright Jeff Whitty and with an amazing score by Robert Lopez and Jeff Marx, Avenue Q is brought to Chilliwack by Vancouver’s Arts Club Theatre Company, performers of such fantastic presentations as last year’s Driving Miss Daisy. Director and Choreographer Peter Jorgensen sings the praises of the fantastic cast that brings Avenue Q to life – “we’ve got seven amazing singer/actor/ dancer/puppeteers!” before revealing a hidden tenderness to this brazenly crude sensation! “Audiences should come

and see the show because it’s first and foremost just a remarkably entertaining production, but on top of that it’s a show that has an amazing heart and soul to it. It’s actually moving in the end, and that’s something that people can take away from it.” Make no mistake though, although Avenue Q might look innocent enough from the outside, one walk down this street will change the way you see puppets forever! Join Princeton and his new found companions as they sing and dance their way through a feast of tongue-in-cheek tunes, side-splitting smut, and more puppet-profanity than you ever believed could fit into one show!

Although the phrase “full puppet nudity” might not be one you hear every day, for the part-human, partpuppet residents of the lively, lewd, and downright ludicrous Avenue Q, it’s about as tame as it gets! Packed with puppet peer pressure, heavy drinking, and more political incorrectness than you would think possible, Avenue Q ain’t no Sesame Street, so be prepared when its population take you on a hysterical stroll when this Broadway hit musical comes to Chilliwack on October 10 and 11, 2014!

SimPhoney Improv fills a hole BY DESSA BAYROCK dbayrock@chilliwacktimes.com

“W

hat are seven things your mother told you never to do?” David Hobson interrogates. “Um!” says Michael Berger. “Jump off a bridge! Follow my friends! Climb a tree! Light a fire! Fight with my sister! Burn the house down!” He rattles the list off in quick succession, as though he spent time memorizing the list at home. But he hasn’t—and that’s the beauty of improv theatre. David Hobson, Michael Berger, Nancy Guitar, Mary Erickson, and Shelley Haggard are all members of a brand-new theatre troupe in Chilliwack, called SimPhoney Improv. They played their first show on Sept. 13 to a packed house at Bozzini’s, and their next show is coming up at the Vineyard Centre on Oct. 3. The comedic genre of improv theatre has nearly universal appeal; the punch-lines are one-of-a-kind, offthe-cuff, and often out of the blue. It relies on sharp and agile minds from

right track, Davis-Fisch says. While they’re bringing a second staged reading to the centre this year, the future might hold grander projects. For now, The Berlin Blues serves as the perfect crossroads between comedic appeal and political discussion—making the issues accessible, but never dry. It’s aimed at people looking for a knee-slapping afternoon, but also those interested in a serious discussion. “How far should economic development go? What’s at stake? What responsibilities do indigenous communities have, as far as economic development goes?” Davis-Fisch reels off. “And then also how do perhaps well-meaning people who want to develop natural resources fit into the indigenous community? “Even though it takes place in Ontario and it’s about a theme park—our

Shelley Haggard of SimPhoney Improv. its actors—which is why the troupe is spending tonight doing simple reflexive exercises. “Seven people you always wanted to be!” Michael says to Shelley. “Angelina Jolie! Dolly Parton!” she says, chewing her lip. “Um—Brad Pitt! George Clooney! Martin Luther King Jr.! The Prince of Persia! The Prince of Darkness!” “That’s eight, but we’ll allow it,” Nancy grins. The group is easy-going and comfortable with each other, with the

bond of life-long friends. They’ve only been rehearsing since July, but David says they had an instant connection with each other. “The fibres just came together,” David says. “There was an almost instant rapport.” Their first performance filled every seat in the house, and one of the audience members booked them for a private gig in a couple of months. It’s no surprise, David says—after all, the troupe is filling a gap in Chilliwack’s already-expansive theatre community. “It’s the only form of arts entertainment that doesn’t have a script,” he says. “You’re creating instant ideas based on what the audience is throwing at you. But when you think about it, life is also improvised. We don’t have a script for anything that we do. So if you just take this form of entertainment into real life, you can add a little fun into your life just by adopting some of the techniques from this show.” ◗ SimPhoney Improv hits the stage at the Vineyard Centre on Wellington at 8 p.m. Tickets are $10 at the door.

It ’s a m i c ro c o s m i c example of the bonds the two partners hope to form in the community—bringing members from all roots together in one conversation. “We want to generate cross-cultural understandings between the two groups,” Davis-Fisch concludes, “and theatre works so well to do that.” ◗ The Berlin Blues takes to the stage at the Sto:lo Resource Centre in Chilliwack at 7:30 p.m. on Sept. 27 and 2:30 p.m. on Sept. 28.

Karen Ireland’s glass sculptures portray found objects.

Elaine Unrau’s trio of Quechua portraits.

Heat, Life, Water & patience BY DESSA BAYROCK dbayrock@chilliwacktimes.com

“D

on’t move the triptych! Oh, keep them together.” A volunteer straightens a framed watercolour and steps back to study the effect. Artist Elaine Unrau stands beside her, studying the trio of portraits. They seem to breathe within their black frames. Three members of the Quechua people in Peru smile out at the viewer, wrapped in bright colours and warm sweaters. Finally Unrau nods: the three will stay together. The rest of the exhibit comes together around her; Unrau’s watercolours fill one wall of the Chilliwack Cultural Centre gallery, while Diane Davidson-Bastien’s batik hangs on the opposing wall and glassworks by Karen Ireland fill the two narrow ends of the gallery. Together the three artists represent Heat, Life, Water, the newest exhibit from the Chilliwack Visual Artists Association (CVAA), now on display until Nov. 2. “I’ve tried different mediums—I’ve tried acrylics, I’ve tried oils—but I always seem to gravitate to watercolours,” Unrau says. Her voice is gentle, but carries through the gallery. Soft grey waves of hair frame her face, blending into the pale walls behind her. It’s no surprise that her favourite part of watercolour is its subtlety. “I’m not this wild, abstract, brilliant, crazy artist,” she says. “I like to depict a gentler way of portraying my subjects, the gentler side of life.” Unrau’s photorealistic work fits neatly under the exhibit’s “Life” heading, but like so many things, the name has evolved since its inception; the artists originally picked the title to refer to process and medium, but the works have grown to fit the title words in new and unexpected ways. For instance, the watercolours fit under “Water,” obviously, but so do the the batik works across the room—not in medium, but in portrayal. Diane Davidson-Bastien’s work centres around the ocean, and the majority depict underwater scenes: Coho jostle against one another for space, sea turtles turn wise eyes to the viewer, and divers float around the stately figure of a whale. “I was raised around fishing streams and rivers, and of course I grew up with Jacques Cousteau on television,” the artist says. “So that’s where you see that—you get inklings of what underwater looks like.” She leans back to take in one of her pieces in context, her eyes darting around the edges as she double-checks each banner is hung

evenly. The batik pieces are by far the largest on display, filling the wall with a spectrum of blues and greens. It’s hard to pick a favourite, she says, but she’s always drawn to the whales, which appear in four or five of the piece on display. “What most people don’t know is that whales have eyes like us,” she continues, drawing attention to the blue irises on one of her pieces. “We have a lot of these on our coast— plenty of grey whales out here. The process she uses is hundreds of years old; Batik involves dying and redyding a piece of cloth over and over, dripping hot wax on each layer to preserve certain colours. “Sometimes you don’t really know what you have until you iron out the wax in the end,” she says. “But that’s what makes it exciting.” Her work falls under water, obviously—she points to the jellyfish, salmon and the whales—but heat lurks under the surface of the work. She rubs one of the banners between her finger and thumb. The cotton will always stay stiff, she says—it’s impossible to get the wax completely out of the cloth, and the pieces always remember their beginnings in hot wax. Karen Ireland’s work also falls into the territory of heat; her work in glass still seems to twist under the light, a memory of its firing and refiring. “I’ve become preoccupied with my kiln,” she says, showing off her latest work; a giant transparent housefly lurks beneath a flashing red light. “The heat moves the glass, and you can do so many things.” The bright colours of another piece seem to roll over each other; blue waves curl around a sailing ship, framing the words “leaving home.” The contrast between each colour is abrupt, the start divisions a reminder of stained glass. “Sometimes the glass is very subtle, but most of the time it’s really in

your face,” Ireland says. She has the same no-nonsense attitude as her art. Distinct. Purposeful. She points to a portrait in glass: An old woman in an enormous sunhat, a shy smile creeping across her face. “This is my sister,” she says. “She’s a wonderful, wonderful person. And I think I captured her character in there.” Her sister, she explains, is 20 years her elder and has Alzheimer’s. She’s the reason Ireland moved to Chilliwack in recent years, and some days are decidedly better than others. Another piece hangs on a nearby wall—a glass brain in a wooden box with a closing door—as a testament to the bad times. But this piece is Peggy in the best light—a mark of the better periods, when the disease recedes into the background and the person behind the illness emerges. “She’s past the early stages now, but I was thinking about her character as I did this,” Ireland says. “I really captured her spark, and her spark is still there.” “It’s interesting to see how life influences art—but that goes without saying,” she says with a wry smile. “Anyway. She’s beautiful. And I love her.” While heat might be the first theme to spring to mind out of the glassworks, life certainly isn’t far behind. But perhaps the strongest theme of the exhibit is an unofficial one; from Unrau’s detailed watercolours to Davidson-Bastien’s unruly batik, and finally to Ireland’s portrait of her sister, one idea curls through the gallery: patience. These artists have laboured in more ways than one, and the result is on display. ◗ Heat, Life, Water is held in the Chilliwack Cultural Centre gallery until Nov. 2, and admission is free.

An estimate of the amount of municipal property taxes that would be imposed on the properties if not exempt for the year in which the proposed bylaw is to take effect and the following two years is $959,540.00.
