Serial killer Clifford Olson dying of cancer
■ C RASH S NARLS T RAFFIC
One of his victims found in Chilliwack Jeff Nagel Black Press Corrections Canada has confirmed serial child killer Clifford Robert Olson is days away from dying of cancer. Known as the Beast of B.C., the 71-year-old Olson was transferred from a Quebec prison to a hospital in Laval earlier this week. CBC News reported his cancer has metastasized and he isn’t expected to live more than a few days. Over several months from 1980-81, Olson abducted, raped and murdered eight girls and three boys aged between nine and 18. Olson preyed on victims across the Lower Mainland and dumped bodies in remote areas from Chilliwack to Whistler. The first victim, 12-year-old Christine Weller, was abducted near her Surrey home while riding her bike in November of 1980. Her body was found on Christmas Day, strangled and stabbed. Three others were also picked up in Surrey – 13-year-old Colleen Daignault, 16-year-old Sandra Lynn Wolfsteiner and nine-year-old Simon Partington. Daryn Johnsrude, 16, Judy Kozma, 14, and Raymond King Jr., 15, all vanished from New Westminster. Ada Anita Court, 13, and Sigrun Arnd, 18, were picked up in Coquitlam. Louise Chartand, 17, was picked up walking in Maple Ridge and Terry Lyn Carson, 15, was found strangled in Chilliwack. During his murder spree Olson lived in an apartment in Surrey on King George Highway and then later at one in Coquitlam. Continued: KILLER/ p4

Firefighters and emergency personnel were on scene at the Lickman Road overpass where this Jeep Cherokee overturned after colliding with a van at about 12:30 p.m. on Wednesday. The SUV was travelling northbound and the van was making a left turn onto Lickman Road when the collision occurred. Everyone in the two vehicles managed to escape with minor injuries. Traffic was down to a single lane as a result. JENNA HAUCK/ PROGRESS
Hotel anchors Lickman development Robert Freeman The Progress A seven-building commercial development on Lickman Road that includes an 80-room Hampton Inn Hotel, part of the Hilton chain, got the final nod from Chilliwack city council Tuesday. “We hope to be in the ground November, and the estimated completion is 2013,” Patricia Lundquist, communications manager at the Odessa Group, said Wednesday. The four-storey hotel, called Station 8050, is the first built in Chilliwack in 20 years, and is one of several Odessa is eyeing in the Fraser Valley. “Our focus was to develop
hotels in emerging communities,” Lundquist said. “We’re not big enough to compete with
established hotels in Vancouver, so we partnered with Hilton world-wide, and first off is

Chilliwack.” “We think this is a great fit,” she added. Odessa is aiming at an upscale market that includes leisure, corporate and government travelers, and includes meeting rooms, fitness centre, indoor pool, hot tub and water slide. “Hockey is big in the Valley,” Lundquist said, so the hotel hopes to attract the hockey teams that come to play at Prospera Centre, as well as visitors to events at nearby Heritage Park. The 24-acre Ritchie Bros. Auctioneers site, which attracts bidders from around the world, is also nearby on Industrial Way. Continued: HOTEL/ p12

Police warn of danger from violence as gang tensions rise Members of Dhak and Duhre groups targeted by rival gangsters Jeff Nagel Black Press Police are issuing an unusual warning that members of the Dhak and Duhre gangs are being targeted by rival gangsters and anyone close to them could be caught in the crossfire.
“There’s a lot of tensions between the gangs right now,” Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit Supt. Tom McCluskie said Tuesday. “If you are associating, if you’re hanging around or if you’re family or even friends of the Dhaks or the Duhres, you are in danger.” The warning was issued after a shooting in Surrey Friday night critically injured Jujhar Singh Khun-Khun, a member of the Dhak group that’s believed to be allied with the Duhres and
United Nations gang against other crime groups, including the Hells Angels. “The shooting Friday night took place on a city street where any member of the public could have easily been caught in the crossfire,” McCluskie said. CFSEU Sgt. Bill Whalen said investigators believe it’s “quite possible” but not certain that the Surrey shooting is linked to the Kelowna shooting incident last month that killed Jonathan Bacon and wounded two other people,
including a prominent Hells Angel. There are now more than 80 officers working on a special task force investigating the Kelowna and Surrey shootings, as well as generally elevated gang tensions in the Lower Mainland. McCluskie said officers have also given specific individual warnings of the danger to several members or people associated with the targeted crime groups. It’s the first time in at least two years police have issued a spe-
cific warning that gang violence could be imminent in the Lower Mainland. It has happened at least once previously when officers warned that the Bacon group was being targeted and anyone nearby could be at risk. McCluskie said members of the public aren’t specifically targeted, but noted more attacks could happen anywhere. “These guys don’t care where it is. They have no regard whatsoever for the safety of the public.”

Tami Turner, a resident of Garrison Crossing, speaks during the newly formed Garrison Grossing Community Association meeting on Monday night. JENNA HAUCK/ PROGRESS
New residents group forms to address Garrison Crossing concerns Robert Freeman The Progress Garrison Crossing residents are asking BC Hydro and the Canada Land Corporation to live up to their promise of underground electrical services. “We have to try and get these people to be more accountable,” said Noelle La Fleche, one of about 50 residents who met Monday to form the Garrison Crossing Community Association.
Several residents at the meeting said they wouldn’t have bought into Garrison Crossing - one of Chilliwack’s premier housing developments - if the “ungodly, big boxes” had been located above ground. Five of the six underground transfor mers installed in 2004 failed by 2007 and BC Hydro replaced them with above ground units in 2008. “We were assured it was a temporary solution,” said
resident Tami Turner, who drafted a petition asking both the CLC and BC Hydro to keep their promise. She said a “joint commitment” had been made in a 2008 letter to residents. Residents will have a “stronger voice,” she said, if they act as a unified group through the community association. BC Hydro and CLC officials did not return calls for comment. Residents at the inaugural
meeting of the community association formed committees to look into several other issues like parking, police response times, and advertising left on lamp posts and mailboxes. Resident Mel Kaario, who organized the meeting, said he was pleased with the turnout. “It’s a great beginning for our association,” he said. rfreeman@theprogress.com twitter.com/paperboy2
Need a bike? Chilliwack Restorative Justice could have a deal for you. This Saturday, Chilliwack Restorative Justice is hosting its fifth annual bike sale and expects to have between 75 and 100 used bikes up for grabs. All bikes have been donated by the City of Chilliwack, Agassiz, and Hope from a stock of bikes recovered by the Upper Fraser Valley RCMP that went unclaimed. They can range from high-end, performance road bikes to mountain bikes to low-end, aging models good for parts. The price: Anywhere from $20 to $400. “We have had some pretty high-end bikes up to everything that would probably just be used for scrap parts,” said Kim McLandress, executive director of Chilliwack Restorative Justice. The organization hopes to raise $1,000 with the bike sale. All funds raised go to restorative justice programs. Chilliwack Restorative Justice is a volunteerbased program that brings offenders and victims together to discuss criminal incidents and find ways to repair the harm caused. The non-profit organization, which was started in 1998, has connected youth with their community, provided mentoring to young offenders, a forum for victims, and has facilitated the payment of monetary restitution to victims by offenders. This is the first year Agassiz and Hope have participated in the sale – a result of Chilliwack Restorative Justice expanding its operations earlier this year to those areas as well. Both communities used to have restorative justice programs, but found that it was too much work for a volunteer coordinator, but not enough for a full-time staff person. “Upper Fraser Valley RCMP includes those detachments and we thought if we could utilize our partnerships, we could get those communities back on board,” said McLandress. Bikes not sold on Saturday will be donated to support other causes. The Chilliwack Restorative Justice bike sale is on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 11 a.m. at Bernard elementary on Bernard Ave. Preview starts at 9:45 a.m.

No Japanese radiation danger in salmon: CFIA Jeff Nagel Black Press Art Show at Woodside Gallery Oct. 1st - 29th, 2011 Artist's Reception: Oct. 1st from 7 pm - 10 pm 2226 Lougheed Hwy • Harrison Mills BC www.leolabelle.com
Salmon tested after returning to B.C. show no signs of elevated radiation levels from their migration through ocean waters feared to be contaminated by the Japanese nuclear disaster earlier this year. “Twelve samples of domestic fish were tested and all products were below Health Canada action levels,” according to the Canadian Food Inspection Agency. All samples came back showing no detectable levels levels of radioactive cesium.
Spokesperson Alice D’Anjou said the samples covered pink, chum, coho, sockeye and spring salmon and albacore tuna. “They were collected at
various points across the British Columbia fisher y,” she said. Fraser River sockeye migrate as far west as the Bering Sea, although some
observers say they were likely on their way back to B.C. when the March 11 earthquake and tsunami crippled multiple nuclear reactors and released radiation through the air and contaminated seawater. CFIA officials had said they didn’t expect anything to turn up, but conducted the tests out of an abundance of caution, primarily to reassure Canadian consumers and export markets. The agency had previously tested air samples, milk and foods imported from Japan. No fur ther testing is planned.
JOIN US Notorious child killer expected to die soon KILLER from Front Olson was arrested near Ucluelet in the summer of 1981 in a rented car with two female hitchhikers. The 1982 deal securing Olson’s guilty plea – and sparing families of his victims the pain of a long trial – included a controversial $100,000 trust fund payment to his wife and infant son. Olson led police to the undiscovered bodies of his victims. Outraged families felt Olson profited from his crimes. Prosecutors defended the arrangement as one that ensured he went to jail and did not run the real risk that he might be acquitted. Olson had been in and out of jail for decades of lesser offences before turning to sadistic sex crimes. In recent years, fresh controversy surfaced when it was made pub-

lic that Olson – along with other prisoners – was receiving in trust $1,170 a month in federal pension benefits while behind bars. The federal government vowed last year to strip federal inmates of old-age pensions while they’re in jail. Benefits would resume on release if the change is enacted amid other justice system reforms. Olson’s case also inspired calls to eliminate the faint-hope clause that guaranteed him a parole hearing in 1997, after 15 years. He was denied – the parole board rated him a high risk to kill again – and Ottawa banned the clause’s use by future serial killers. Olson was last denied parole in 2010 and said he would not reapply. Families had dreaded having to fight his release every two years.

“These are the best progressive lenses I’ve ever had!”
When Al Drebot’s juniper bushes died in his backyard, he decided to paint them instead of dig them up. JENNA HAUCK/ PROGRESS
Dead shrubs given colourful send off Katie Bartel The Progress Al Drebot has tapped into his Dr. Seuss roots. Last month the Chilliwack homeowner painted his manicured juniper trees a rainbow of colours. His six plants, which were once a brilliant green, now boast 19 heads of blue, green yellow, red and orange. Why would someone paint their junipers? “They were dead,” he shrugged. When Drebot noticed his backyard junipers browning, he contacted Brian Minter as well as a couple landscapers for advice. They all told him some juniper species only last a certain number of years. At 28 years old, Drebot’s junipers had come to the end of their life cycle. Drebot’s daughter told him he had to remove them, that it was bad karma to keep dead plants in the ground, she said. But Drebot wasn’t yet ready to let go. He’d been raising his junipers, then just babies, ever since he purchased his house 22 years ago. So, instead of digging them out, he bought $220 worth of spray paint, and 10-12 hours later, he had
5
Skittles-coloured junipers that looked more like they belonged in a Dr. Seuss kids’ book than a Chilliwack yard. “Instead of tearing them out, I figured I could get one more year out of them,” he said. “The paint is like glue, it holds [the branches] together.” But because the trees are out in the open, exposed to all elements, Drebot doesn’t expect they’ll survive winter. “One good ice storm and I’m sure they’re going to shatter,” he said. The juniper trees weren’t Drebot’s first foray into plant artistry. A couple of years ago, he dug up his sedum plants that were also dying, dried them out, and spray painted them as well. “They were dead so I figured I’d spray paint them and see what happened,” said Drebot, a mechanic by trade. “It’s just something different.” The spray painted sedums are now an accent piece inside his house. Drebot is not sure what his spray painting future will bring. “I haven’t painted grass yet,” he laughed. kbartel@theprogress.com twitter.com/schoolscribe33

ing. While I enjoyed museum work, I found that framing was a creative outlet for me while museum work was not as creative. Also, I began to realize that museum jobs were very hard to come by,” she explained. Aside from the creativity, Krista also enjoyed the great variety and the ability to meet so many people. “I’m a people person and I love meeting people,” she said warmly. In 2001, Krista made the move to Chilliwack and seven years later, she decided to start her own business. “I have always been a picture framer but rather than working for other people, I decided to start my own business and we’ve been here for four years now.” Cornerstone Gallery, as it is known, is located on Young at Chilliwack Central, across from Valley Toyota and it’s a thriving little business. “For six months, I laboured over what to call the business. Then one day, we were at the lawyer’s office and we just had to come up with a name so my brother quickly came up with it,” she laughed. Aside from providing custom picture framing, Cornerstone Gallery also has gallery space and every eight weeks the work of one or two community artists is featured. After four years, Krista is currently in the process of adding retail to
her business. “It’s time to start branching out a bit more,” she said. While she is dedicated and focussed on her business, she truly enjoys the live,
music scene. “I love the local jams and I also enjoying biking around Chilliwack,” she said with a smile. Cornerstone Gallery will be closed for the
month of November when they will be packing up and moving to 46085 First Ave., currently where Decor West is located.

It was a rather warm day and I had been going hard since early morning. I neglected to turn on the air conditioning in the car and sweat was gently rolling down by back. Getting out of my hot car, I Ana quickly MACEDO walked into Cornerstone Gallery and was met by a sweet smile, a cool and comfortable environment and calming music, something that I readily welcomed amidst my hectic schedule. I introduced myself to Krista Butt, who immediately made me feel welcome and the interview began. As I looked around, my eye caught a glimpse of a rather unique sculpture. “It’s my father’s. This piece combines both wood and stone and it won an award at the Surrey Art Gallery show,” said an obviously proud Krista. Her father is an accomplished acrylic painter as well as a sculptor; using stone and wood as his mediums of choice. “Dad is what you’d call a Jack-of-alltrades while mom is the nurse in the family,” she said with a chuckle. As a youngster, Krista admits that she was a regular tomboy as well as being an avid reader. She enjoyed school and music. “I took piano lessons for many, many years and played classical piano,” she said. She also became quite interested in museum work and after graduating from Earl Marriott Secondary in White Rock, she left for Ottawa to attend Algonquin College. “I took their three-year museum studies program.” It was there that she became interested in framing. “As part of my schooling, I did practicums at both the National Gallery of Canada and the Ottawa Art Gallery. At the National Gallery of Canada, they have the Canadian Museum of Contemporary Photography and while I was with them, I began doing fram-

World Rivers Day Sunday is World Rivers Day. It’s a celebration and recognition of the importance of waterways for commerce, recreation and, most importantly, the environment. World Rivers Day was founded by BCIT instructor and environmentalist Mark Angelo. Angelo’s passion for rivers is boundless. He’s paddled hundreds of them on six continents. Chilliwack has the good fortune to be framed by two great rivers: the Chilliwack/Vedder River to the south, and the mighty Fraser on the north. The Fraser River is the tenth longest river in Canada, and its 1,375 kilometres have had a huge impact on the history, economy and culture of British Columbia. The Chilliwack/Vedder, meanwhile, offers one of the finest fishing spots in the world. It also known for its kayaking and rafting. The fact that both these rivers are such an integral part of our life makes easy to take them for granted. Which is exactly why the Fraser, and the hundreds of smaller rivers and streams that flow into it must be cherished and protected. On Sunday volunteers will again be heading out to the Chilliwack/ River for one of the biggest cleanups of the year. More than 2o0 volunteers will assemble at the Chilliwack Fish and Game Hall on Chilliwack Lake Road before hitting the riverbanks. The event is hosted by the Chilliwack Vedder River Cleanup Society. And over the past nine years members have helped haul nearly 65 tonnes of garbage from this sensitive ecosystem. Registration is from 8:30 to 9:30 Sunday morning. And there are displays and activities all day. For clean up participants, there is a barbecue and prizes. It’s a great way to celebrate World River’s Day and learn how you can help protect and preserve the rivers that run past our door. For more information, go to www.cleanrivers.ca. ~ Black Press

B.C. imports American-style politics VICTORIA – The Americanization of Canadian and B.C. politics is gathering speed now that legislated four-year terms are finally settling in at the federal and provincial level. Scheduled elections are an important reform, but the downside is that they seem to lead inexorably to constant campaigning. The latest example is the B.C. Liberal Party’s website and radio campaign directed at upstart B.C. Conservative leader John Cummins. “Strange days indeed,” NDP leader Adrian Dix mused on his Facebook page. “The Liberals, after a week of nasty attacks on the NDP, launched an anti-John Cummins website. Absent a policy agenda, the Liberals seem to want to blame others for their problems. This too will backfire as Ms. Clark is again misreading the public mood. People are

demanding substance in politics these days, not photo ops and negative attacks.” I see nothing strange in Dix rushing to the defence of Cummins, who represents the NDP’s best hope for a move into the legislature’s west wing. It is a bit odd for Dix to accuse others of lacking policy, as he leads a party Tom that has been disFLETCHER tinguished by little other than negative political tactics since its neardeath experience in 2001. This is almost as strange as the B.C. Liberals damning Cummins as a politician who “says one thing and does another.” Yeah, that can really come back to bite you.
There hasn’t been much of an anti-Dix effort yet, but you can be sure there is one sitting on the shelf, prepared for Clark’s recently-abandoned fall election plan. The “nasty attacks” Dix complained about were focused on his federal party’s sudden preference for Quebec seats in the House of Commons, and sniping about which Premier Clark hired more political staff – Christy or Glen? And it was the NDP who started the negative cycle with their own TV ad, featuring “Campbell Crunch” and “Christy Crunch” cereals, both “loaded with HST.” (I can put to rest the ghastly rumour that the B.C. Liberal war room will soon unleash a gang of angry, unemployed HST stickmen.) The U.S. tactic of going negative early, to define your rivals before they can define
themselves, has worked spectacularly for Stephen Harper’s Conser vatives. They scorched federal Liberal leaders Stéphane Dion and Michael Ignatieff, and public distaste for these methods does not seem to have hurt them. The anti-Cummins campaign has a similar style, and there are indications that it may have been produced in Toronto. The website, canttrustcummins.ca, uses a bug-eyed photo of the former fisherman-MP that makes him look like a ray gunwielding alien from the movie <I>Mars Attacks</I>. In fact our whole political scene is starting to look like a rerun of a bad 1990s movie. It was Reform BC that rose from the ashes of Social Credit, and inspired a desperate Gordon Campbell to sing country music and take a hard line on aboriginal relations, to stitch the ruptured

right back together. Cummins defined himself as a Reform-Alliance-Conser vative MP by railing against treaties, and that continues to be the core of his thin policy book. His other two main ideas are also pure rural populism. He vows to scrap the carbon tax and suggests that municipalities should cut their costs to fund transit. Voters will have a better idea by the end of this week if Clark’s plan for “defending and creating jobs” is really new policy, or merely more photo ops. B.C. has had its first taste of California-style tax revolt. Now we have two years ahead that will be dominated by relentlessly negative, continuous campaigning.

If you hold a garage sale, be alert for people purchasing your items with counterfeit money. Garage sales can be busy and when there is a rush of people it is easy to forget to check the money that is handed to you. We recently held a garage sale and took a counterfeit $20. It was not until sometime later that we
realized that the bill was phoney so we had no description of the suspect to give to the police. The bill was a good copy but the metallic strip on the side was silver without the hologram. The person that passed this phoney $20 bill probably purchased an inexpensive item from us to receive genuine cash back

and probably handed the bill to us with their hand over the metallic strip. Garage sales are a great opportunity to clear out the clutter and recycle items you don’t need, but it is frustrating to lose money to a counterfeiter.

The results of this event exceeded everyone’s expectations in so many ways. Over 250 volunteers put in almost 800 man-hours to visit 10,000 homes. All together approximately 12,000 pounds

The residents of Chilliwack showed they care about the social issue of hunger by responding so generously, filling up the bags that were left
on their doorsteps a few days prior to the pickup date. With such a positive outpouring of kindness on this first year, we look forward to even greater participation with both volunteers and donations in future years of this event.

Well, I parked my truck so my daughter could not see what I was about to say to this man, locked my truck and approached him. I intended on yelling and I did. I asked him if he had any kids at the elementary school he went speeding through. He said no. I told him that he sped through a school zone, crossing a single solid line and passed blindly through a crosswalk of which he did not have knowledge of what was in front of my truck. He apologized, and I told him that he needed to apologize to the entire school and told him to stop driving like a certain part of the anatomy. Here’s the good part. He stated to me that he “did not know there was a school there”. I informed him that had he took the time to look, there

He said he didn’t see it. Wow! After I said my parting words he, obviously embarrassed by my berating in front of what was a packed gas station decided to challenge me to a fight. Unbelievable. Needless to say he soon realized the error of his statement, and we then went our ways. When I finished my purchases and attended my son’s school, I was approached by another student’s mother who was at the gas station as well. She took the time to thank me for speaking to that fellow. I apologized if I seemed less than desirable but quickly told me that it was alright. We then discussed the speeding down this road and the abhorrent driving habits.

Drivers need to pay attention I just want to comment on the first week of back to school driving, as I have seen it. On the first day traffic was anticipated to be up in volume and the roads a bit more congested, and this was true as I took my son to his first day of Grade 1. We arrived 10 minutes early so as to beat the rush of other parents and found ample parking and time to spare. The Wednesday I was to pick my son up from school but had to go fuel my truck up at a nearby gas station. As we entered the school zone in front of the school, doing the speed limit of 30 km/h. A man in his 50s driving a fairly economic white car sped by my truck, crossed the single solid line, passing me in the school zone and 40 feet from the crosswalk where many families cross to go to school. This fellow continued his acceleration of what I determined to be around 70km/h down South Sumas Road toward Vedder. I honked and yelled out

Support makes food drive a success You might have noticed last Saturday morning (Sept 17) a slow moving vehicle driving down your street and a couple of people putting plastic bags full of food into its trunk that they picked up from your neighbours’ doorsteps.

News Construction to begin soon on new hotel HOTEL from Front The six commercial buildings in the Odessa development are designed to accommodate 12-18 tenants, which will likely include restaurants and a “sit-down” coffee shop. “We have a couple very close to agreements,” Lundquist said. The Best Western’s 74-room Rainbow Country Inn, a popular site for business meetings and conventions, is also located nearby. It also offers a restaurant, lounge and indoor pool. A Tim Horton’s and a Subway shop are also located in the area, which has a large traffic volume due to the Lickman Road access to Highway 1. Brian Coombes, executive director at Tourism Chilliwack, said anytime a “quality” hotel like Hampton moves into the community, “that’s a positive.” But the full benefits won’t be felt unless the economy grows and demand for accommoda-

tions grows along with it. Otherwise, the new hotel will be competing with existing facilities for the same customers, he said. “I do think one of the areas of opportunity for this property, which is also tied to the economy, is the industrial lands north of the railway tracks,” he said. “Once you see more business in those locations ... a Hampton Inn will be able to capitalize on that.” The 74-acre Progress
Way industrial park is currently home to the Kal Tire warehouse/ distribution centre, IMW Industries and several others. Northern Vision Realty Advisors, which is working with Odessa, said Chilliwack’s recreational facilities, shopping centres, arts, culture, new jobs and a continuously growing school district are what’s attracting new businesses and residents to the area. City staff recommend-
ed council approve the development permit for the Odessa project. The east half of the linear, three-hectare site had already been rezoned to Tourist Commercial in 2004 to allow an earlier proposal for a four-storey hotel, and a development permit was issued in 2008. But city staff said the Odessa Group’s proposal is “significantly different” from the 2008 proposal, so a new development permit was required. City council also approved a development variance permit earlier this month to allow a larger free-standing sign, and the city’s design review panel approved the “form and character” of the hotel and commercial buildings. Lundquist said the “country/urban” flavour of the design fits in well with Chilliwack. “It’s going to be a very beautiful complex,” she said. rfreeman@theprogress.com twitter.com/paperboy2
Proposals sought by city for old Paramount theatre The City of Chilliwack is inviting proposals for the use of the Paramount theatre, a longtime landmark in the city’s downtown. “We’ve heard from many people who have fond memories of the old theatre, and creative ideas for future uses,” Mayor Sharon Gaetz said in a news release. “We’re looking for proposals that will put an idea into action with a detailed business plan, as there are many issues and financial implications that need to be considered.”
She said “limited maintenance” was conducted during the final years of the theatre’s operation and estimated repairs could cost from $150,000 to $250,000. “There are significant cosmetic issues, serious electrical concerns, no insulation in the building, a leaking roof, and the boiler, built and installed in the 1940s, is broken,” she said. The theatre and property were “gifted” to the city in November, 2010.
A formal request for proposals will be published on Oct. 3 and will close Dec. 7. The document will be available at www.chilliwack. com/bids. Groups or individuals making a proposal must submit a written description of the proposed use, demonstrate the capacity to make all the improvements needed to the building and demonstrate the financial ability to complete improvements without financial assistance from the city.

Focus on what’s important in life!
A B.C. Hydro transformer blow-out triggered fire alarms and played havoc with some computer systems in downtown Chilliwack last Thursday. The brief power outage affected only about 131 customers, a B.C. Hydro spokesperson said Monday. “What we think probably happened was a bird contacted the lines, causing the circuit to trip,” said Simi Heer. She said there might have been a “bang” heard or a flash of light seen when the transformer on Spadina Avenue tripped – a built-in safety feature. She said power was restored “automatically,” but the outage caused the fire alarm to sound at the main Canada Post office in downtown Chilliwack.

Dick Harrington, who has acted as campaign manager for local NDP candidates in provincial and federal elections, has thrown his own hat into the ring for a seat on Chilliwack city council. “I have a fairly extensive background in Niagara Falls city council and the Niagara Regional Council,” he said in an interview last week. Harrington was a city councillor in Niagara Falls for three years and sat on 13 committees during that time, including finance, public works, social services and downtown development. “That was a huge issue in Niagara Falls,” he said, as the city saw 18 million visitors a year, and had ongoing problems crime problems like prostitution and drug abuse. “Sound familiar?” he asked. But Harrington is quick to add that he is a relative newcomer to Chilliwack, and he realizes he still has lots to learn about the community. “Downtown is the heart of the community - but it’s not the only part,” he said. He is asking Chilliwack voters to email their views on municipal issues to him at dickharrington@hotmail.com He said some of the issues he’s investigating so far include the need for more parking at Prospera Centre, flooding in Yarrow/ Greendale, and issues of congestion, erosion and transit in Promontory. Agricultural land issues are also “dear to my heart,” he said, as he dealt with development pressures on farmlands as a councillor on the Niagara Regional Council. As regional councillor, Harrington said he was also part of a team that managed a $180-million budget, and that he served on major committees including family services, the hospital board, and social services. Harrington also has
experience in the private sector, operating a sports store in St. Catharines, and in the educational sector as a school principal for five years in isolated Arctic communities that delivered “highly successful” sport and trade programs for Inuit students. Sports is a major interest of Harrington’s, and he said he has a 20-year history of coach-

News Firefighters’ fitness tested in FireFit competition Robert Freeman
We’d like to know you better.
The Progress Chilliwack career firefighter Ken Bodholdt brought home a bronze medal from the Western Regional Fire Fit competition held last weekend in Edmonton. Paid-on-call firefighter Jeff Kemp beat his personal-best time with 2:21 in the men’s open event, while paid-on-call firefighter Peter Kuhr, competing in his first FireFit event, posted 3:09 in the over-45 category. Whether shaving seconds off your personal-best or bringing home a medal, the FireFit

competition “motivates you to a higher level,” says Assistant Fire Chief Jeff Ullyot. It also conditions firefighters to meet the physical demands of their job. “The competition is based on what a firefighter does in his work,” Ullyot says. The event includes running up six flights of stairs carrying 50 lbs of firefighting gear, hoisting a fire hose “hand-over-hand” to the top of the stairs, slamming a weight with a sledge hammer to simulate breaking through a door, running 50 feet with a heavy fire hose, and then drag-
ging a 175 lb. mannequin 100 feet to safety. Bodholt completed the event in 2:15 to win the bronze medal. Ullyot says the Chilliwack FireFit team practices every week - a rigorous work-out after a full day on the job for the paidon-call firefighters. “It’s a real commitment to be part of the FireFit team,” he says. Five Chilliwack firefighters were headed to the Canadian National FireFit competition held in Medicine Hat, Alberta. rfreeman@theprogress.com

If you have some large flower beds you’d like to liven up, use pansies along with other winter plants.
Brightening up the dull months ahead
604.743.5067 or vdebartolo@abbotsfordheat.com
It’s now about time to enhance our fall, winter and spring gardens with some lovable, colourful, perfumed winter pansies, but there is more to it than just popping them in the ground. Done well, they can create magic in our fall gardens and again in late winter and spring when we really need that colour lift. The natural colours in winter landscapes are basically bleak: cold grey skies; faded grasses and bare trees; and slate coloured streets and driveways. What we need during these dull months is brightness. Warm colours, such as yellows, reds and oranges, along Brian with whites for accent, will add life to our gardens. Pastel colours, like MINTER most blues, pinks and mauves, can show up well if they’re accented properly. Multicoloured pansies are attractive, but they won’t have the same impact in a winter landscape as single coloured pansies that not only stand out by themselves, but are also further enhanced by being paired with pansies of complementary colours, such as the new planned colour combinations like ‘Citrus Mix’, ‘Ocean Breeze’ and ‘Raspberry Sundae’. Yellows and blues are often used together very effectively, but what about soft yellows with attractive maroon-reds or winepurples? Believe me, they’re combinations that really work! Reds and whites together aren’t bad either. Whites with deep purples look very classy, and bright oranges with pastel blues are also great. The point is: put some striking colour combinations together for a far more dramatic result in your garden. Continued: MINTER/ p25

Travel Smoking ban looms for Metro regional parks
Value. Packed. Travel.
Jeff Nagel Black Press A ban on smoking in regional parks except in designated areas will go to the Metro Vancouver board for a final vote later this month. The region’s parks committee voted 5-4 Wednesday to proceed with the tougher restrictions on smokers who use Metro-run parks, trails and beaches. Committee chair Gayle Martin, a Langley City councillor, said the plan would leave it to Metro staff to define permitted smoking zones near where people spend long periods of time – beaches, shelters, reservable buildings and campsites. “There would be no smoking anywhere in Metro Vancouver parks except for those designated smoking areas,” she said. “If you’re taking a walk on a trail, you will not be able to smoke.” Martin, a smoker herself, was one of the four directors who opposed the new policy. She argued a better approach would have been to define specific no-smoking zones to protect people in high-use areas but let smokers puff away everywhere else in Metro parks. “I’ve never had one complaint about people smoking in regional parks,” Martin said. Posting signs and other printed information on the policy would cost the region up to $23,000, if

the recommendation is adopted by the board Sept. 24. A Metro staff report estimated only 10 to 15 per cent of park-goers smoke and that most would likely voluntarily comply with the new restrictions without any extra spending on enforcement. Smoking zones would only be designated where there is little risk of second-hand smoke exposure to others, smoking litter is contained and there is no risk of fire starts. The debate came after a presentation from the Canadian Cancer Society, which urged Metro to proceed with a ban. “A comprehensive ban on tobacco use within regional parks would eliminate exposure
of park users to second-hand smoke, protect the park environment from tobacco litter and reduce fire risk as a result of tobacco products,” society campaigner Brittney Parks said in a presentation. The Wreck Beach Preservation Society opposed the smoking ban and a volunteer coordinator at Pacific Spirit Regional Park urged Metro to put the money to better uses. The planned policy would also affect other regional parks like Tynehead, Campbell Valley, Lynn Headwaters and Belcarra regional parks, as well as some beaches, such as Centennial Beach at Boundary Bay and Sasamat Lake.

Home&Garden Pansies can add dash of colour to winter gardens MINTER from p22 Now, where to put them? It’s important to understand that unless you mass plant pansies they are never going to provide the high impact of marigolds or petunias. They will be far more effective when strategically located in high visibility locations, such as along your driveway and sidewalks and around focal trees in your landscape. Stand back and take a good look at your landscape to see just where little bits of colour would spark things up for the coming fall and winter. If you have some large flower beds you’d like to liven up,
use pansies along with other winter plants. Flowering kale and cabbage are sensational winter focal points, especially the new ‘Winter Bor’, ‘Red Bor’ and the silver ‘laciniata’. Plant kale in attractive patterns, using blocks of three to five plants. Between your groupings of kale, add blocks of solid, brightly coloured pansies. Try orange pansies around purple kale or deep blue pansies around white kale. These combinations are really eye-catching! The ‘Proven Winner’ folks have come up with a wonderful series of hardy evergreen plants that complement pansies very nicely. Dwarf ever-
green grasses make fabulous focal points in planting beds or containers. For example, Carex ‘Evergold’ has white and yellow variegated foliage that is quite striking all winter long. Acorus ‘Ogon’ is a more upright gold and green that acts like a spark plug for winter combinations. These grasses are also perfect companions to small bulbs like blue crocus and dwarf Iris reticulata. The new evergreen ajugas, like the deep purple ‘Mahogany’ the pink/cream ‘Burgundy Glow’ and ‘Black Scallop’, make fine ground covers or edging plants and are great complements to pansies. I really love hardy
evergreen euphorbias, like ‘Blackbird’, ‘Rosy Glow’ and ‘Ascot Rainbow’, that turn rich deep colours in winter and produce fabulous chartreuse flowers in spring. These euphorbias tolerated -10°C last winter with no problems. We’ve only just begun to discover the pleasure and value that pansies can add to a garden during the bleakest time of the year. The small flowered violas and the stunning ‘Matrix’ series of pansies are some of the hardiest varieties. Getting an early start will make a huge difference to the size and quality of your pansy display.

Rovers bring Irish charm to Chilliwack They’re still spreading the luck o’ the Irish with their upcoming television special, newly released album, and 2011 Home in Ireland tour. The Irish Rovers, one of the world’s most popular and beloved Celtic groups, will be at the Cultural Centre Saturday October 1 with an arsenal of favourites, toe-tapping originals, and rollicking fresh tunes. The Rovers’ concert concludes the all-day event, Cultural Collaboration-Anniversar y Celebration, a community open house coordinated by the partners of the Cultural Centre and celebrating the centre’s first
anniversary. It has been a magical journey from their first to their 2010 release, Gracehill Fair, which has had high praise from Celtic radio announcers from Belfast to Maui. Throughout the years, these international ambassadors of Irish music have maintained their timeless ability to deliver a rousing performance of good cheer – one that will soon have you singing and clapping along. While fresh tunes are sure to debut October 1, the “oldies” will also be in full colour, many of these anthems among generations of fans. Award-winning
numbers will fire up the party, including the The Unicorn, Chattanoogie Shoe Shine Boy, Drunken Sailor, The Wild Rovers, Years May Come, Years May Go, and Wasn’t That A Party. The Rovers are passionate about performing to their legions of fans, making them “one of the most successful and enduring of all Irish folk bands,” declared by BBC Radio. Start the merrymaking Friday, Sept. 30 at the Duke of Dublin Restaurant & Bar where true Irish spirit will run wild. Featuring live music by Paul Evenden and Jennie Bice, a menu special with
Irish beer, plus exclusive ticket giveaways for the main event the following night. This “Warm-Up to the Irish Rovers” takes place from 7-11 p.m. This is your opportunity to hear this Juno award-winning group perform their hits, live at the Chilliwack Cultural Centre. For ticket information, call the Centre Box Office at 604.391. SHOW(7469) or visit MondayFriday 9:30 a.m.-9 p.m., Saturday and Sunday 9:30 a.m.-5 p.m. Tickets are also available online at www.chilliwackculturalcentre. ca
The legendary Irish Rovers are at the Chilliwack Cultural Centre Oct. 1.
‘Galaxy of quilts’ warms local charities The Chilliwack Quilters’ Guild is will host its biannual quilt show at the Chilliwack Alliance Church Gym, 8700 Young Road, Chilliwack, on Saturday, Oct. 22 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. This year’s show, “A Galaxy Of Quilts” will feature a display of charity quilts as well as various other quilted items ranging from Kingsize bed quilts to small wall hangings sewn by members. The event will also include a Tea Room, White Elephant Table, a Challenge Quilt Contest and a Merchants Mall. The Guild’s Queen Size Raffle Quilt will
be on display with raffle tickets available for purchase. The Chilliwack Quilters’ Guild is a small but busy group of approximately 50 women dedicated to furthering the art of quilting in the community. Over the past year, they have made approximately 80 quilts to be donated to hospice, day cares, transition houses, and Sto:lo Health Services. The funds raised at their quilt show and raffle are used to purchase the necessary materials so they may continue to make and
donate quilts. They meet regularly on the third Tuesday of each month from 8:30 a.m. to 12:15 at The Landing Sports’ Centre, 45530 Spadina Avenue. Guild members engage in many activities, but their main focus is to ensure that quilting remains alive and active in the community. Chilliwack Quilters’ Guild was started in 1985 and has seven charter members still in the group.
Chilliwack joins day of cultural celebration Bring your family to the Cultural Centre on Saturday, October 1 and be prepared to engage your hands, feet, eyes, ears and sense of wonder for a full day of participatory arts activities. There will be live performances, music and classes that you can take part in, games, community art creation, and much more. As a collaborative, Canada-wide volunteer movement, the first annual Culture Days event swept across more than 700 Canadian cities and towns in 2010, generating an extraordinary amount of enthusiasm in the process. These designated days aim to raise the awareness, accessibility, participation and engagement of all Canadians in the arts and cultural life of their communities. This year, Chilliwack will be added to the roster of Culture Days’ events, debuting, Cultural Collaboration-Anniversar y Celebration. Through the partnership of the Chilliwack Academy of Music, Chilliwack Community Arts Council, Chilliwack Arts & Cultural Centre Society, Chilliwack Visual Artists Association (CVAA), Chilliwack Players Guild, Chilliwack Symphony Orchestra, and British Columbia Registered Music Teachers Association, this event will present a free day of arts and culture activities. Highlights of the day include the CVAA hosting an “Artist Village” where a number of artists will be working in a variety of media from 11 a.m. - 5 p.m. Also on the schedule is the Chilliwack Academy of Music’s Dixieland Band that made its spectacular debut at last year’s Faculty Showcase Concert, and the Academy’s community choirs: Festival Chorus and the new and improved kid’s choir, Tayosei. Families with young children (babies to preschool) can enjoy a complimentary Kindermusik class with Ms. Marlene in the Toddler Studio. Adults can get a sneak peak at two of the Academy’s upcoming classes: Ukulele Club and a Singer-Songwriter’s Symposium. Seniors can enjoy an hour-long Music Appreciation class with Principal Graham Yates. Schoolaged children may enjoy a handson experience at the “Instrument Playground” generously run by Tom Lee Music. And everyone is welcome to experience a free music lesson with an Academy teacher in one of the Academy’s 18 upstairs studios.

The Chilliwack Progress Thursday, September 22, 2011
Robert Freeman The Progress The Sept. 9 earthquake off the west coast of Vancouver Island may not have generated reports to Chilliwack officials that it was felt here. But one Chilliwack reader says she sure felt it. “I was sitting at my computer in my third-floor apartment ... when I felt my computer chair move in a sideways motion,” said the reader, who asked that her name not be used. She said the motion lasted for about a minute, and when she went to her kitchen she saw a chandelier “swaying back and forth.” Although relatives she called afterwards hadn’t felt the quake, she said, “I had felt a very definite swaying.” Many high-rise residents in Vancouver said they felt the 6.4 earthquake, and there were reports it shook up people as far east as Kamloops and Kelowna. Chilliwack emergency official Jim MacDonald said the quake was a “timely reminder” that families should have a plan in place and a family emergency kit ready in case of a more serious earthquake. A B.C.-wide earthquake drill will be held Oct. 20 at 10:20 a.m. For information about the drill go to www. shakeoutbc.ca

Making Customers for Life “The best advice I ever got was to call Musicworx” There are so many details to take care of when you’re setting up a new restaurant. Atmosphere and ambiance are an important part of the recipe for success. Jim and the Musicworx team were a huge help to me and my staff in the design and installation of our audio/video systems at both Frankies Italian Kitchen & Bar and the Rinkside Bar & Grill at Prospera Centre. Jim’s advice is well considered and their follow-up service is exceptional. He’s here at a moment’s notice if we’ve had a power outage or something needs adjusting. It feels like a partnership and that’s how I like to do business. I wouldn’t shop anywhere else for electronics!

Tough road for Chiefs through Interior conference As the Chilliwack Chiefs prepare to host the Penticton Vees in their home and season opener Friday night at 7 p.m., Black Press writers from the BCHL’s Interior conference markets have been hard at work compiling previews for the teams the Chiefs will face. The conference appears deep and talented, and Chilliwack has a tough road to the playoffs.
VERNON VIPERS
Key Retur nees: For wards Patrick McGillis (13-12-25), Mike Zalewski (12-1729) and John Knisley (10-25-35) lead the offence while blueliner Brett Corkey (1-2324) and goalie Kirby Halcrow lead the D. Rookie Sensations: The son of Edmonton Oilers’ GM Steve Tambellini and brother of former Vancouver Canuck Jeff, hockey runs in Adam Tambellini’s bloodlines. The lanky forward pocketed 54 points and 113 penalty minutes in 34 games last season with Edmonton’s South Side Athletic Club. Strengths: With seven of their 11 returning players being forwards, Vernon’s strength will be up front. This is an organization that has reached the national finals three straight years. The vets know what it takes to succeed and can teach their talented crop of newcomers what it takes to be one of the top junior A clubs in Canada.
PENTICTON VEES
WESTSIDE WARRIORS
MERRITT CENTENNIALS
SALMON ARM S-BACKS
PG SPRUCE KINGS
TRAIL SMOKE EATERS
Key Returnees: Local kid Logan Johnston is back to captain the Vees after a 11-21-32 campain last year. Forward Joey Benik (30-26-56) gets one of the alternate A’s on a team loaded with talent. Goalie Michael Garteig went 36-8-3 with seven shutouts, a 1.69 GAA and .934 save percentage last year.
Key Returnees: Tyler Krause (11-31-42) will be an offensive leader along with fellow forwards Dru Morrison (14-17-31) and Brett McKinnon (10-13-23). The D is anchored by Michael King (5-18-23), Izaak Berglund (2-1214), Peter MacIntosh (0-11-11), and Brayden Sherbinin (4-8-12).
Key Returnees: Regan Soquila (20-25-45) was a consistent offensive contributor last year. Evan Stack (13-19-32) Chad Brears (4-17-21) and Jacob Reichert (7-11-18) provide help up front with Brandon Pfeil (6-10-16) the rock on D. Goaltenders Lino Chimienti and Tyler Steel should be solid.
Key Returnees: Brett Knowles (30-28-58) hit the 30 goal mark for the Silverbacks last year and leads a high powered attack into the new season. Forwards Morgan Zulinick (1217-29) Bryce Gervais (29-22-51) Devin Muller (12-16-28) will help as James Friedel (1-5-6) anchors the D.
Key Retur nees: Surrey native Jujhar Khaira (10-32-42) teams with Chilliwack native Connor Tiechko (1313-26) and Alaska’s Jeff Earnest (6-16-22) offensively. Defenceman Ben Woodley (6-11-17) will keep things clean for goaltender Kirk Thompson (3.91 GAA, 88.76 save percentage).
Key Retur nees: Veterans are few and far between. Trail will rely on the likes of Eric Cooper (11-15-26), Logan Proux (3-8-11) Adam Boytnick (3-1215) and Rajan Sidhu (1-22-23) up front while goaltender Matt Larose (2.67 GAA, 92.4 save percentage) holds the fort at the other end.
Rookie Sensations: Minnesota Wild draft pick Mario Lucia scored 30 goals in 27 games with Wayzata High School. The son of Minnesota Golden Gophers coach Don Lucia, Marco was chosen 60th overall in the 2011 NHL Draft. Mike Reilly, featured in the Prospects report in The Hockey News on Sept. 19, was drafted by the Columbus Blue Jackets in the fourth round in the 2011 draft. In 201011, Reilly led Shattuck’s St. Mary’s defence in scoring with 13 goals and 43 points and helped them capture the Under-18 Tier 1 National Championship. Steven Fogarty, drafted by the New York Rangers in the 2011 NHL Draft, racked up 23 goals and 40 points in 24 games with the Edina Hornets in Minnesota.
Rookie Sensations: A pair of Warriors rookies from the B.C. Major Midget League will look to make the jump to junior. Forward Seb Lloyd had 17 goals and 37 assists in 30 games with the Cariboo Cougars in the BCMML, helping his team to a second place finish (2811-1) in the 12 team circuit. Defenceman Ben Betker had 13 points with the Kootenay Ice, who finished 10th with an 8-25-7 record. A quick transition to major junior for both players would go a long way helping Westside catch up to the big dogs in Vernon and Penticton.
Rookie Sensations: Eighteen-year-old Brandon Bruce was a late arrival at Cents’ training camp, but the former Swift Current Bronco (WHL) has made an immediate impact. The feisty 5-foot-10 centre plays with an edge, and has a ton of talent to back up his style. Local player Payton Schaefer cracked the lineup after putting up respectable numbers last season with the Kamloops Storm (KIJHL). On the back end, look for Texan Ross Mancuso (KIJHL champion Osoyoos Coyotes) and sixteen-year-old Dylan Chanter (POE midget prep) to round out a very experienced defensive corps.
Rookie Sensations: Defenceman Brendan Kennedy, who played last season with Okanagan Hockey Academy, and forward Kyle Oleniuk of Moose Jaw (Saskatchewan Midget AAA) were rookie standouts in Salmon Arm’s main camp and look poised to earn quality minutes in the regular season. Vernon minor hockey product Alex Gillies, the SilverBacks’ 16-yearold, has the size and grit to handle the more physical junior style.
Rookie Sensations: On a team that also has triplets, the McHaffie twins (Scott and Spencer) garnered attention during the Spruce Kings spring prospect camp. The 1994-born forwards from Surrey committed to the Spruce Kings after winning a provincial Midget Tier 1 title with the Surrey Thunder. At 6-foot-4 and 210 pounds, 18-yearold Cody Bardock will bring size to the blueline, while 16-year-old Kitimat native Michael Klonarakis joins the team after skating for the highly respected Pursuit of Excellence hockey academy in Kelowna.
Rookie Sensations: Vancouver Chiefs F Matthew Bissett finished fourth in scoring in the Major Midget League last year; 16-year-old for ward Luke Bertolucci netted a point a game for the Major Midget Kootenay Ice (15-19-34), winning a gold medal at the Canada Winter Games with Team B.C. Dallas Calvin played for the KIJHL Beaver Valley Nitehawks, counting 40 points in 40 games as a 16-year-old. The 6-foot3 forward will provide speed and size up front. Other rookie notables include D Brandon Egli, F Brandon Long and D Daniel Delbianco, all from Major Midget.
Strengths: Speed and size will be the key ingredient for the Vees success. Coach Fred Harbinson has assembled a big team that will move the puck up and down the ice and use its quickness to create offence.
Strengths: The Warriors’ strength will likely come from the blueline with its top four returning blueliners, including Berglund, who was named the Warriors captain. New coach Rylan Ferster is preaching defence and work ethic as he takes over from the departed Darren Yopyk. Last year’s Warriors were able to score goals in bunches, lighting the lamp a league high 246 times.
Strengths: In Chimenti and Steel, the Cents have two proven netminders who allowed just 12 goals in six preseason games. Stack, Soquila and Bruce could be one of the most potent forward trios in the league. Blueline returnees Pfeil, Marshall, Willcox and Richard Sabourin will be the keys to a successful season.
Strengths: The SilverBacks boast a solid top-six forward corps that can put the puck in the net at any given time. With just one returning d-man (Friedel), Salmon Arm head coach/GM Colin O’Hara acquired veteran blueliners Klay Kachur (Powell River), Bennett Hambrook (Prince G e o r g e / Ve r n o n ) , Matt Brown (AJHL Drumheller Dragons) and Sean Flannagan (SJHL Kindersley Dragons) in the offseason. Salmon Arm is a threat every year in the BCHL.
Strengths: Under head coach Dave Dupas, the Kings have become a more disciplined defensive team. While they ultimately missed the playoffs, the less entertaining brand helped the team climb back to respectability by the end of the season. They won’t get pushed around easily either, with the likes of Woodley and Trevor Esau (6-foot-4, 110 penalty minutes) on their back end.
Strengths: The Smoke Eaters will be a young team with approximately 12 rookies. Depending on how they develop, offence may be a concern but the team should be strong defensively with goalie Matt Larose backstopping a solid defensive core of veterans led by Sidhu, Clayton McEwan and recent acquisition Nicholas Wong from Cowichan Valley.

Chilliwack Chiefs head coach Harvey Smyl named the four man group that will wear letters for the 2011-12 team. As expected, veteran defenceman Tyler Miller gets the captainâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s C.

Title haul for Cheam Vaulters Four major awards went to members of the local Cheam Vaulters when equestrian teams from throughout the Pacific Northwest gathered in Chilliwack for the Canadian National and B.C. Provincial Championships. Alisa Schmidt retained her title as the Canadian AA women’s champion, vaulting on her new Percheron mare Rosie and lunged by Josh Anema. The new B.C. provincial women’s champ is Ali McKitrick, who also vaulted on Rosie with help from lunger Anema.
The Zone 3 (Fraser Valley) championship title went to Abigale Wynberg, who vaulted on the Shire/Saddlebred gelding Travler, lunged by Barb Schmidt. Alisa Schmidt returned to coach the composite team Radiance to a championship. Comprised of athletes from both the Cheam Vaulters of Chilliwack and the Triple M Vaulters of Langley, they became the first Canadian team to ever reach the championship level. The group of seven competed on the
Cheam club’s Belgian/ quarter-horse gelding Tanner, lunged by Anema. Championship team members were McKitrick, Wynberg, Schmidt, Tauren Deluca, Cassie Sponchia, Darla Ricka and Jessica Church. Church also won the B.C. Zone 5 (Vancouver) championship award, riding Tanner. Other major winners from the Cheam Vaulters included Bailey Sutcliffe, who won gold in the largest class of the show, the division C walk class. In division D walk, the gold medal went

to teammate Tabitha Stegemann. She was competing in her first provincial championship. A special award was presented by the Equestrian Vaulting Association to Colin Schmidt, head coach of the Cheam Vaulters. Colin, who was the longest reigning Canadian champion and international competitor, was recognized for his outstanding contribution to vaulting as an athlete, coach and representative to the sport’s provincial and national governing agencies.
Bruins stood firm, and Chilliwack could only muster a penalty kick in the first half, kicked by Eric Vandenboom for a 3-0 lead. A few lucky breaks and poor discipline by the Crusaders helped the Bruins to two unconverted tries in two minutes, putting Chilliwack down 10-3. But crashing runs from Mike Jordan and Nick Hyde helped the Crusaders claw back. Chilliwack kept the majority of possession in the second half, preventing the Bruins from expanding their lead. With 20 minutes left and fatigue setting in on both sides, Chilliwack coach Mark Atrill made some final substitutions. Mike Bailey and Niek de Brouer dominated the physical play, with Mike Weisse and Jaymes LeClaire delivering monster hits. As the tide turned, Jordan rumbled up the gut for a try, making the score 10-8 with five minutes to go. After some great rucking from Ken Malibu and Matt Myers, Aaron Angers crashed through for the game winning try on the last play of the game. The forward of the match was Loz Davies and back of the match was Jordan. The Crusaders host the Kitsilano Kats Saturday at Townsend Park at 1 p.m. Spectators are always welcome.

For the second week in a row, Chilliwack’s U-16 Silver girls soccer Silver team thwarted an opponent with stifling defence. The North Shore Twisters beat Surrey 9-1 last week, but found no room to move against Chilliwack. Kaila Ronda, Kiana Thiessen and Brett Karcioglu forced turnovers in the midfield while strong play by Shanelle Brown and Jade Emonds limited the Twisters to two quality scoring chances. The first half ended nilnil. Kelli Whitehead and Kristi Ricard spent most of the second half feeding passes to forwards Makayla Pfeifer, Haley Mainse and Emily Finley. They slid through the Twisters D, but had too many shots miss the target. Despite out-chancing their opponents 11-2 in the second half, Chilliwack could not find the back of the net. The game ended in a 0-0 draw, an extremely flattering score for the visitors.

Last second major buries Bears
MINOR FOOTBALL REPORT: WEEK THREE
Chilliwack’s midget football Giants improved to 3-0, squeaking out a 13-11 win over the North Surrey Bears in a battle of unbeaten teams. All night the Giants defense came up with big stops and turnovers to give the ball back to the offence. However, Chilliwack’s offence couldn’t move the ball against an equally effective North Surrey D. With under a minute remaining, Chilliwack found themselves pinned inside their own five yard line. With less than 20 seconds left in the game, quar terback Cam Bedore had no other option other than to try a long bomb. Bedore stepped back in the pocket, looked the coverage off, and chucked it up for playmaker Craig Zylstra. The speedy wideout made an amazing catch over two Bear defenders, made two more defenders miss as he cut back across field, and was off to the end zone. Led by a convoy of blockers, Zylstra broke one more tackle at the 15 yard line and took it in for the winning score. ● The bantam Blue Giants played their 2011 home opener against the North Surrey Panthers, cruising to a 32-16 victory. Running back Filip Horak opened the scoring on the Giants’ first possession, eluding several Panther defenders as he raced to the endzone. Horak added a second touchdown, with Kirkland Kennedy, Jake Creasy and Nashon Douglas also finding the endzone. Douglas was making his first appearance as a
fullback, and made several key blocks in the running game. Byron Dargatz led the Giants on defense with several solo tackles and a fourth quarter interception that put the game away. Treyvon Walsh and Thijs Duinveld also had interceptions as the G-men played a solid all around team game on D. ● Chilliwack’s bantam nine-man team played their exciting brand of end-to-end football to near perfection, routing Vancouver 48-12. A combination of blinding runs and crushing hits staked the locals to a 26-0 lead, and they never looked back. The Giants return to action Saturday night at 6:30 p.m., hosting the Burnaby Lions at Townsend Park. ● The junior bantam Blue Giants bombed the Langley Bears 38-0, led by dual-threat quarterback Nick Both. Both was efficient in the passing game and lethal on the ground, carrying the ball four times for 174 yards and three touchdowns. Running backs Tyler Sprott and Cameron Lampart also found the endzone, while Emerson Smith carried four times for 84 yards. Kyle Helsloot caught a hitch pass and gained 15 yards after the catch to convert a key second-and-long situation in the second quarter. The offensive line was led by Michael Lengert, who had an outstanding day. Kicker Spencer Breslin hit four of five converts. On defense, tackle Chris Derksen had four tackles and a sack to lead the way. Breslin and Ethan Mastin blanketed the Bears receivers, allowing just one catch on eight Langley attempts. Linebacker Cyrus Tommy had two tackles and a sack while defensive linemen AJ Sagrott and Vincent Giesbrecht pressured the Langley QB relentlessly. After an injury to linebacker Emerson Smith, Helsloot filled in two
solo tackles. ● The junior bantam Red Giants were crushed 36-8 by the Abbotsford Falcons, with Jordan Breuker scoring the lone Chilliwack TD. Austin Penner, Kobe Pool and Emerson and Ayden Harvey were standouts on defence. The Red Giants face the Chilliwack Blue Giants in an all-local matchup Saturday at 4:30 p.m. at Townsend Park. ● The peewee Red Giants dropped a 44-0 decision to the Abbotsford Falcons. Riley Egan, Andrew Locke, Colin Campbell, Justin Crooks and Hudson Harvey were standouts for the peewees, who worked hard to make something out of nothing. The Red Giants face the Blue Giants in an alllocal matchup Saturday at 2:30 p.m. at Townsend Park. ● The peewee Blue Giants battled hard against the Meadow Ridge Gold team, falling just short in a 14-12 loss. Chilliwack scored on their opening drive with a great run by Brody Porter, but most of the game was a defensive standoff. Tyler Kermode, Jayden Mourato and Noah Thiessen led the Chilliwack D with sure tackling. The second Giants major was scored by Evan McCracken. ● The atom Blue Giants won their first game of the season, defeating the Meadow Ridge Knights 24-6. Running back Colton Holt scored three touchdowns and passed for a fourth to receiver Josh Jannsen. Samuel Mannes also had several carries for the Giants, making positive yards on each carry. Dhillon Myers led the way on defense with four tackles and two sacks, while Raiden Mastin and Maddy Eyres applied constant pressure in the Knights backfield. Noah Kling had two very deep kickoffs to
help Chilliwack win the field-position battle. Defensive linemen Liam Perry and Taylor Troyan had standout games while cornerback Theo Smith blitzed his way to two quarterback sacks. ● The atom Red Giants and the Abbotsford Falcons exchanged blows like two angry prize fighters, but it was the Falcons earning a 30-12 decision at Townsend Park. Both teams struggled to move the ball in the first half as the driving rain and slick field proved to be as strong as any defence that either team could muster. Both teams traded touchdowns in the second half, until two crucial plays allowed Abbotsford to pull away. Down 18-12 and on Abby’s one yard line, Chilliwack ran an offtackle dive, only to fumble the ball and lose possession. Abbotsford ran a quick sweep to the right, resulting in a 110 yard touchdown run that put the game out of reach. Despite the loss, the Chilliwack coaching staff was impressed with the defence led by Jackson Saunders. Strong games were also turned in by Avery Ade and Hayden Anderson on the offensive line, Kurtis Flynn at tailback and Blake Goward at nose tackle. ● The atom White Giants played their best game of the year, blanking Langley 12-0 for their first win of the season. Grayson Frick scored on Chilliwack’s first offensive play, running 55 yards straight up the gut. Michael Mar tin scored the second major, returning an interception 45 yards to paydirt. Logan Buchwitz turned in a touchdown saving tackle, dragging down a Langley runner at the three yard line. Chilliwack’s D followed with a three play goalline stand to preserve the shutout.
Chilliwack native Aaron Pauls was named one of two University of the Fraser Valley athletes of the week after a stellar performance at the first PACWest golf tournament of the year. Pauls, a third year Kinesiology major, shot an impressive 140 at the two day tournament in Kamloops last weekend, propelling the Cascade men to a six-stroke first place finish ahead of second place Camosun College. Pauls sits second overall in the PACWest individual standings, one stroke behind the leader. Women’s soccerr player Chelsea Steffen (Abbotsford) was the second UFV athlete of the week.
Chilliwack Husker Levi Weaver stares down a Langley Ram defender during a B.C. Football Conference game last Saturday at Townsend Park. The Huskers lost 20-7, slipping to 0-7 on the season. Chilliwack visits the Okanagan Sun this weekend. JENNA HAUCK/ PROGRESS

He lived for and loved his family, his friends and Pavilion Lake where the family have created and shared many cherished memories. Harry was a long time member of the Lions Club and the Royal Canadian Legion. Harry also spent 33 1/3 years with BC Hydro and retired from there in 1983. His retirement was spent doing the things he loved the most; spending time with his family, fishing, playing Crib, watching hockey and enjoying a nice glass of Scotch. There will be no service at his request; however, donations in Harry’s memory may be made to a charity of your choice. Society’s First Alternative Services 604-607-1150
