Civic reps voted to ask for tighter restrictions on boxing, wrestling and similar pro matches like mixed-martial arts. UBCM will ask the province to ban such events unless they’re regulated by an athletic commission. North Cowichan Coun. Al Siebring said the move shouldn’t stamp out the popular fight events, but is merely an attempt to “set standards on this vastly growing sport.”

One of the closest votes at at last week’s Union of B.C. Municipalities Convention in Whistler came when delegates debated whether to press for mandatory helmet use by skateboarders, inline skaters and scooter riders. But the wheels quickly started to come off the idea when some civic reps questioned whether it might also apply to seniors or the handicapped in electric scooters or children’s tricycles. “This is going to cost people quite a bit of money,” Langford Coun. Lillian Szpak said, adding it could deter young people from being outside and active. Powell River Coun. Debbie Dee defended the measure as one that would prevent brain injuries. A Tofino councillor suggested the
overwhelmingly non-skateboarding mayors and councillors at UBCM were unreasonably trying to restrict the lifestyle of local youth. The motion was defeated 198-190.
Carl and Julie Ens, and their children Alicia, 16, Madison, 14, Levi, 14, and Lauren, 12, planted about 20,000 pumpkin seeds back in the spring. By Halloween, they expect to harvest about 50,000 pumpkins. Little wonder they’re inviting you to help. For the second year in a row, they’re operating a U-pick pumpkin patch 2981 190 Street (open from 9 a.m. to dusk), following in the footsteps of their grandfather, Ron Heppell, who ran the operation for many years. Now that he’s retired, his grandchil-
dren are happy to continue tending the patch, even though a lot of work is involved, especially in July, when the Ens family members spent two hours a day weeding. Madison Ens says the secret to picking the perfect pumpkin is to choose a nice tall one, because it’s cheaper (the pumpkins are sold by circumference, not weight) but it depends on the face you have in mind when you’re carving your Jack-o’-Lantern. The massive fall squash isn’t merely decorative; the Ens family is fond of making pumpkin bread, pumpkin muffins, pumpkin soups and of course, roasting pumpkin seeds.

to the Burnaby detachment, where he was promoted to corporal in 1982. He transfered back to Burnaby in 1990, after serving as Staff Sergeant of the Langley detachment. In 1998, he transfered to Surrey as the NCO in charge of administration, and arrived in Cloverdale in April 2003, maintaining a prominent profile in the community ever since. Along with serving as a board member of the Cloverdale Business Improvement Association, Options, Clover Valley Resources and Servants Anonymous, Woods was sure to be spotted at local events such as the Rodeo Parade, Canada Day, and even the Olympic torch relay. He received the Police Officer of the Year award in 2006, an honour chosen by the community. He convened regular Community Consultative Meetings at the Hampton Inn which proved popular, remembers Ursula Maxwell-Lewis, founding publisher/editor of the Cloverdale Reporter. “By bringing area residents and business leaders together informally, Woods and his officers combined informing the public, with rallying ongoing support for the boys in blue,” she says. “Typically, Dave searched for positive avenues to increase community safety awareness.” When he was posted to Cloverdale he enthusiastically embraced the idea of Commander’s Corner, an RCMP Cloverdale Reporter community update. “A regular column can be a grind,” she says, “but Dave knew this to be one of the many effective ways to connect personally with ‘his’ community. He cemented many friendships in the process, something that undeniably played a roll in dealing with homelessness in the downtown core. “When I first came to Cloverdale, there was no extreme weather shelter,” Woods recalled earlier this week. “We had guys sleeping on cardboard on the street and there was snow on top of them. Our members were spending their own money buying sleeping bags for them.” The RCMP, the BIA, Chamber,

Rotary Club, and Cloverdale Christian Fellowship and the city of Surrey came together to create an extreme cold weather shelter in the Cloverdale Mall. Showers were installed, along with a washer and dryer, so people in need accessing the soup kitchen were able to clean their clothes and bathe. But the work of the committee didn’t stop there, securing provincial funding for a needs assessment study that paved the way for a homeless shelter. Cloverdale Hyland House opened in 2008. Woods says the role of the district office is to deal with nuisance level and low-level crime and quality of life issues that affect people. A District Commander is expected to be an expert in crime trends within their community, a job that involves consulting with people and groups in the community on a regular basis, finding out where their policing priorities lie, and then attempting to work out solutions, “More than anything else, we’ve really opened up the lines of communication with community groups and with business groups,” he said. His replacement, Staff/Sgt. Shirley Steele, comes from E Division headquarters, where she worked on the research side of community policing. As a constable, Steele opened the first community police office in 1991 in Surrey in Cloverdale. “She worked here by herself,” says Woods. “Her job was to liaison with the community. So she’s done it before.” When: Where:

Tuesday night. A tractor was hauling a wagon trailer with nine farm workers on it near168 Street and 40 Avenue. The driver of a pick-up tried to pass the slower-moving vehicle and hit the trailer, striking the corner of the wagon and injuring five occupants. The area was dark and unlit, and although the trailer had its lights flashing, they may have been obscured by the trailer, police say. The RCMP Traffic Services and WorkSafeBC are investigating. The driver of the truck is under investigation for impaired driving causing bodily harm.

‘Tough’ driving laws may be best thing B.C. could wish for New provincial legislation aimed at reducing the road carnage caused by impaired driving is certainly draconian, as it basically means there will be zero tolerance for driving after having as little as one drink. A local restaurateur told me last week that he believes this law and its enforcement has had a more significant impact on the hospitality business downturn than the much-vaunted HST, especially here in the suburbs where transit options are not as good as they are for people who party it up in the urban areas of the region. People are afraid to have even one glass of wine with their dinner, he reasons, and this is keeping people at home. I reckon he’s probably right on this but on the other hand, does everyone really have to consume alcohol to have a good time?
I’m not a prude or a teetotaller by any means, but over the almost 40 years I’ve worked as a journalist I’ve heard and written far too many stories about the heartbreaking tragedies caused by mixing alcohol with motor vehicles. If this legislation succeeds in reducing the numbers of these stories, I will be perfectly alright with it. And aside from drinking at home, there are other alternatives. You can still enjoy a night out, socializing with friends and supporting live music acts, without imbibing alcohol. If I’m driving home from a venue I simply order non-alcoholic beer — there are many new tasty brands, they’re cheaper than the alcoholic variety, and no matter how many you consume you won’t be impaired.

Getting gooed gracefully
The principal of a local elementary school gets slimed in the name of charity
By Jennifer Lang Students at Zion Lutheran School dared to cross the slime line on the pavement last week, spraying their good-natured principal Jon Mayan with green goo until he was unrecognizable. They each got their turn, one by one, to pour green slime on Mayan, who didn’t complain once. A barefoot Mayan, wearing a bathing cap and swim goggles, and clad in washand-wear sweats, sat in a chair out in the school’s parking lot, surrounded by plastic tarps, prepared for students to do their worst. The amount of slime depended on how much money each student had raised for a good cause – the 2010 Cops for Cancer Tour de Valley and the Canadian Cancer Society. Some students got a small cup. Others got a large, beverage-sized containers. Then there were the kids who got pitchers. And each used the opportunity to slime their principal in a different way. Styles varied. Some students were shy and tentative, gently transporting the cop from the supply table to their victim, careful not to spill a drop along the way, and then slowly pouring the goo

out over his head, forearms and toes to ensure full body coverage. Others practically pounced on their victim, dispensing the contents with a quick flick of the wrist, sending jets of green slime onto their hapless victim, temporarily blinded by the sheer volume of goo. This isn’t the only crazy stunt principal Mayan has done in championing Cops for Cancer. Last year, students sent the him to the roof. He agreed to spend one minute on the school’s roof for every $1 students donated to the Cops for Cancer cause. He ended up spending at least 13 hours outside on the school’s roof, where he camped out most of the chilly September night. The Slime the Principal event on Sept. 30 raised $1,210.85. The next day members of this year’s Cops for Cancer Tour de Valley rode to the school on their way to their final stop later in the day at society’s head office in Langley.

Cops cycle on through Riders roll through Cloverdale as part of 750 km-long journey By Jennifer Lang Traffic along 32 Avenue at 184 Street south of Cloverdale came to a temporary halt last Friday afternoon as members of the Cops for Cancer Tour de Valley whizzed past heading east on their final leg of their journey. The delay lasted only a couple of minutes, with the cyclists zooming along quickly – despite having logged hundreds of kilometres this week – stymying efforts by onlookers with cameras to capture the moment for posterity. Oct. 1 was the last day of the 2010 tour, which began Sept. 23. The riders, law enforcement officials and first responders, were raising money for the Canadian Cancer Society’s B.C. and Yukon chapter. Proceeds go towards research for pediatric cancers and help support children with cancer. Money also goes to programs like Camp Goodtimes, a summer camp for kids with cancer. After stops today in South Surrey and Cloverdale, where they visited Zion Lutheran School, the riders were headed for the Canadian Cancer Society’s Langley office at 3 p.m., ending a 60-km leg on the final day of the tour. Some legs spanned more than 130 kms per day, for a total of more than 750 kms in a multiday bike ride from Tsawwassen to Boston Bar and back.

Along the way, the riders stop pedat schools and businesses, spreading the message of cancer prevention, such as eating a proper diet, staying out of the sun unless using sunscreen, and not smoking.
The Tour de Valley started 13 years ago. Since then, the tour has raised approximately $2.1 million, according to the Canadian Cancer Society. This year’s tour has raised more than $300,000.

Education Beat New elementary school is built on history Contributed While Gertrude Adams typed up stories as a Surrey Leader newspaper reporter back in the ‘30s, she couldn’t have imagined a modern day elementary school, let alone that it would be a school named after herself and her husband. The school, now nearing completion, holds her namesake: Adams Road Elementary, and is located in northwest Cloverdale on 68 Avenue (previously named Adams Road for the family’s instrumental efforts in improvements to the road and area). The new school ADAMS ROAD is expected to be complete ELEMENTARY and ready for students close to WHERE: 18228 68 Ave. Christmas break. PHONE: 604-595-1070 In the meantime, Adams Road Info: Principal Joanne students will be in classrooms Berka; www.sd36.bc.ca/ at Don Christian Elementary. adamsroad When it opens, Adams Road Elementary will have a student population of 235. But the school can accommodate 300 students for this growing neighbourhood of young families. Everything about Adams Road Elementary will be clean and contemporary. The two-storey building is over 2,500 square metres (27,000 square feet) and designed to LEED Gold standards, incorporating energy-efficient and “green” elements. Students will be hands-on with the most modern of resources: leading-edge educational tools, physical education equipment and technological tools. Outdoors, the students will have access to a variety of recreation, including a field and play areas, grass soccer field and baseball diamond.
DISTRICT HOSTS FORUMS The Surrey Board of Education is hosting a series of upcoming public consultation meetings to discuss challenges and choices facing the Surrey School District – the largest, fastest-growing district in the province. The board is looking for feedback on how best to meet the need for accessible neighbourhood schools while maintaining or expanding programs of choice. Among the topics up for discussion is managing school enrolment capacity in fast-growing neighbourhoods by changing

catchment boundaries or the configuration of the school day and/or the way educational programs are provided. The board is also looking at embracing community partnerships and expanding access to schools as hubs for community services – while managing student safety and security, traffic density and increased operating costs. In sharing information with the public, the board hopes to gather input to consider in order to meet competing demands in a complex, growing school district where there are more high priority requests and expectations than available resources, such as funds and physical space.
Schools in brief
You’ll find the school’s catchment area on a map on the district’s website at www.sd36.bc.ca/findaschool.html. Outof-catchment requests will be kept on file on a first-come, first-served basis. The future looks bright for Adams Road Elementary.
The next consultation meetings will be held Oct. 12 at Elgin Park Secondary, 13484 24 Ave., Oct. 14 at North Surrey Secondary, 15945 Ave., and Oct. 18 at Fleetwood Park Secondary at 7940 156 St. All forums run from 7 to 9 p.m. For more information, call the school district at 604596-7733.
Surrey Centre Elementary has a new principal at the helm, Barbara White. And Joanne Berka is principal of Adams Road Elementary, which opened in a portable at a temporary location at Don Christian Elementary. The new school building is expected to open in December.

Hospitals to be rewarded for speed
Make the Right Choice...
Meanwhile critics wonder if the new health funding model will make smaller hospitals less viable
Choose...
Jeff Nagel The province is rolling out $23.5 million to perform more elective surgeries and MRI scans, the first wave of a promised $250 million in pay-for-performance funding. Health minister Kevin Falcon said the new money will follow the patient and drive innovation because hospitals and medical teams will be rewarded if they find ways to become more efficient and get patients in and out faster. “I reject entirely the voices that say we must simply add more money to the system,” he said, calling status quo health care delivery unsustainable. Fraser Health’s share of the first installment is $7.9 million and is expected to allow local hospitals to perform an extra 6,800 surgeries and other medical procedures and 4,450 additional MRI scans. Vancouver Coastal Health Authority will receive $5.7 million for 4,850 surgeries or procedures and 3,150 scans.

Some of the new money could end up going to private clinics to deliver new procedures if that’s how health authorities decide to best deliver expanded care, Falcon confirmed. The Vancouver Island health authority has already issued a call for bids from private clinics to deliver MRIs. “What I care about is patients getting the service they need as quickly as they can,” Falcon said, adding private delivery is no problem so long as procedures are publicly funded and universally available. NDP health critic Adrian Dix said that’s a concern, particularly as private clinic MRIs are likely to cost the system more money. He has dubbed the government’s pay-for-performance strategy a “slush fund” more aimed to manipulate public opinion of health care funding through a game of surgical yo-yo than actually achieve innovation. The number of MRIs to be
performed in Fraser Health this year will still fall slightly short of the number performed in 2009, despite the funding lift. MRI wait times had reached 18 months at some Lower Mainland hospitals and elective surgery waits had grown because of postponed procedures during the Olympics and over the summer. “What you have is purely a shell game here,” Dix said, predicting long waits will persist. But Falcon denied it’s simply a shuffling of money that could have been kept in the hands of health authorities in the first place. “It is new money,” he said. “We are not just handing this money over to the health authorities and hoping for the best. We are buying specific procedures and specific outcomes.” The model has raised questions as to whether smaller hospitals could become less viable because they may have difficulty competing against
larger ones with bigger complements of specialists, equipment and capabilities. “Not necessarily,” responded Falcon. Initially, he said, there won’t be direct competition between hospitals. “We want to give all health authorities time to get used to the patient-focused funding model.” But by 2013, up to 20 per cent of acute care health delivery is to be via patient-focused funding. Dr. Les Vertesi, the head of the B.C. Health Services Purchasing Organization that will control the distribution of funds, argued small hospitals may actually be in position to exploit the new rules and expand their offerings. Under the old system’s rigid budgets, he said, many hospitals were operating “with their brakes on” much of the time, only doing half of what was possible. “They should be able to take real advantage of this,” he said. “Hospitals like the
Langleys, Maple Ridges, Deltas and so on have expertise and space available and they can do things really efficiently because in a smaller environment the cost is smaller and the huge apparatus of people isn’t there.” The new model is expected to encourage the use of advanced day surgery instead of overnight hospital stays. Back and spine surgery, bladder surgery and hernia repairs are some of the procedures expected to get much of the new money. Lower Mainland pilot projects over the past couple of years are credited with cutting waits for spinal surgery and encouraging a shift to a new technique of zapping swollen prostates with lasers rather than using traditional surgery, drastically cutting the length of hospital stays. Province-wide, a total of $80 million is to go out by the pay-for-performance model this year, rising to $170 million in 2011.

Turning on a television or radio for your pet and keeping him in a separate room on Halloween helps distract him from the sounds of trick-or-treaters at the door. your pet is wearing identification. Dogs and cats may try to run away if they feel threatened. Clear, current identification is your best chance to have them returned to you. It’s not OK to say it’s OK – Avoid consoling your pets by saying things like, “it’s OK” or “don’t be scared” in a soft or sympathetic voice. This only reinforces the fearful behaviour and makes your pet think you’re scared, too. Instead, speak in an upbeat manner. Don’t feed treats to your pets – Candy can lead to health problems such as diabetes or obesity, and chocolate is especially dangerous because it contains theobromine, which is toxic to dogs and cats. Keep
treats well away from Fluffy and Fido. Don’t bring your pet trickor-treating – Halloween can cause pets to behave uncharacteristically. A normally friendly dog could bite if it feels scared or threatened. In addition, dressing your dog in a costume inhibits his ability to communicate, making him prone to display aggression himself or be subjected to aggressive behaviour from other dogs. Visit spca.bc.ca for more information on Halloween pet safety. Lorie Chortyk is the general manager of communications for the BC SPCA.

Dentist Julian Winston (Andy Wood) moves in for the first kiss with Toni (Krisandra Reid) during rehearsals for Cactus Flower.
It’s complicated Farce about infidelity opens SLT’s new season
By Jennifer Lang Things get a tricky for a commitment-phobic dentist in the Surrey Little Theatre’s season-opener, a fastpaced comedy that proves how sometimes the simpler you try to make things, the more complicated they become. In Cactus Flower, opening next Thursday, Dr. Julian Winston (Andy Wood) pretends to be married to keep his affairs from becoming too serious – a tactic that quickly falls apart when he falls in love with his latest girlfriend, Toni Simmons (Krisandra Reid) and wants to propose. But the girl’s got firm standards. She refuses to break up her fiancÊ household without first meeting – and talking to – his soon-to-be-ex, director Brigitte Seib explains. He enlists the help of his shy office assistant, Stephanie Dickinson (Robyn Bradley), a woman who outwardly seems as cold-hearted as the prickly cactus she keeps on her desk. Of course, it wouldn’t be a farce without miscommunications and false assumptions: complications arise when Toni decides the two must find her a new beau so everyone can live happily ever after. It’s a story played for laughs. Playwright Abe Burrow’s popular farce was also adapted into an award-winning 1969 film starring Walter Matthau, Goldie Hawn and Ingrid Bergman. The SLT production is directed by Brigitte Seib and Paul Cowhig. Rounding out the cast are actors Pat
McDermot, Debbie Cameron, Mike Robida, Ingo Holst, Annette Maitland and Brent Flink. Other plays in the works for the 2010/11 season include Splinters, an original play written by Elyse Maloway, a youth member of the SLT, and the musical, You’re a Good Man Charlie Brown. Next year’s Fraser Valley Zone festival entry is Murder of Crows. The final production of the season will be a youth production called Unusual Suspects, directed by youth alumnus. “We’re anticipating a very busy year this year,� says Sieb, who’s SLT president as well as director of the seasonopening Cactus Flower, co-produced by Lana Hart and Ellie Parento. Increasing the lineup to five productions, including two youth productions, is part of theatre troupe’s efforts at providing more opportunities for youth to get involved. Surrey Little Theatre is also running its annual 50-hour film competition, among other plans. Cactus Flower opens Thursday, Oct. 14 and runs to Nov. 6. Performances are Thursdays to Saturdays at 8 p.m. (doors open at 7 p.m.), and Sunday matinees at 2 p.m. (doors open at 1 p.m.) Oct. 15 is a 2-for-1 night. There’s a gala night Saturday, Oct. 16. Tickets are $15. Reservations by calling 604-576-8451, by email at reservations@surreylittletheatre.com and at the website www.surreylittletheatre. com. The SLT is based out of the heritage playhouse at 7027 184 Street.
