Group may seek truck museum By Jennifer Lang The baby’s been delivered, but it hasn’t started crawling yet. That’s how Paul Orazietti introduced the new Surrey Heritage Society last week to members of the Cloverdale Business Improvement Association and Cloverdale Chamber of Commerce. Orazietti, who’s one of the directors of the new society, says it was formed to fundraise and advocate for projects dedicated to the preservation and conservation of heritage assets in the City of Surrey. It’s led by president Bruno Zappone, a prominent Cloverdale resident, and the society hopes to launch a membership drive soon. “We’re trying to bring in people who are passionate about advocating for the protection and conservation of history in this city,” Orazietti said. One of its first projects may be to take on the Teamsters Freight Transportation Museum, moving its collection of 18 vintage trucks from Co-

quitlam to Cloverdale. The Teamsters society is looking to donate their museum to a new society that can carry on with the conservation, restoration, and preservation of its trucks. The collection was part of the former B.C. Transportation Museum that used to be located in Cloverdale until it was closed in 1993. Orazietti said there have already been initial discussions with the Cloverdale Rodeo and Exhibition Society to consider using the Alice MacKay building as a truck and tractor museum site on the Rodeo Fairgrounds. Some of the Surrey Heritage Society directors would like to propose that the society creates a partnership to allow the society to acquire the museum, and include antique farming equipment and interactive displays to create a heritage discovery centre on the fairgrounds. Several cities are vying for the Teamsters’ collection, but Surrey is the currently the front-runner, Orazietti said.

Won’t you be a neighbour? Surrey’s Block Watch program celebrates 25 years in operation this Saturday

JENNIFER LANG PHOTO

By Jennifer Lang Some might call it being nosy. But to Carrie Chattell, it’s really just being aware. She’s talking about Block Watch, a crime prevention program program where neighbours look out for each other, and report any suspicious activity to police. Surrey was the first jurisdiction in B.C. to introduce Block Watch, now celebrating its 25th year in operation. The program works on the assumption that your neighbour knows who you are, what kind of car you drive, and may be the first per-

More groups needed, says Cloverdale Block Watch coordinator Carrie Chattell.

son to notice someone suspicious at your home or block. Surprisingly, considering how close-knit the community seems, Cloverdale has the lowest number of Block Watches in Surrey. Except, that is, for Clayton, where new residential growth has been booming, says Chattell, Cloverdale Block Watch Coordinator. “We could really use more Block Watches here,” says Chattell, who also acts as crime prevention programs coordinator for the Surrey RCMP’s Cloverdale/Port Kells district office.

are built so close together, residents might be a little more prone to guarding their sense of privacy than in older neighbourhoods. “The closer the houses are, the less you know your neighbours,” she laments. “Block Watch isn’t about being a nosy neighbour, it’s about being an aware neighbour.” She says the program encourages residents to be more aware of what’s going on in their neighbourhood by getting to know one another.

Insite decision is hypocritical Chronic illnesses deserve consideration To the editor: According to the Supreme Court ruling, drug addicts now have constitutional rights to free medical treatment via drug treatment centres like Insite. Vancouver’s Insite is funded by both the B.C. Ministry of Health ($1.2 million per year) and Health Canada ($0.5 million per year). The clinic provides free needles and free medical care to those addicted to drugs. The argument used by all nine Supreme Court judges was that closing the clinic would violate drug users’ constitutional rights and “potential denial of health services and the correlative increase risk of death and disease”. Using the same logic, shouldn’t people who have chronic illnesses, such as people with Type 1 diabetes, be given the same constitutional right to free life-sustaining medical supplies (i.e. insulin pumps and continuous glucose monitoring systems which have been proven the best possible treatment for people with Type 1 diabetes)? Why are drug addicts getting free treatment for their “illness” while those with chronic diseases are not?

Gas pains It’s going to cost Metro Vancouver motorists two more cents a litre in TransLink taxes, but the long-promised Evergreen Line to Coquitlam will be built. Sixteen mayors approved TransLink’s supplemental plan last week by a 70 per cent majority, ensuring a variety of other transit upgrades across the region will be delivered – partly funded by the gas tax increase. The Metro cities and the province are now committed to negotiate various new sources of funding for TransLink to cover nearly half of the extra $70 million per year that will be required to pay for the transit expansion. The vote is a leap of faith for the mayors, who are trusting Victoria to deliver. Otherwise a $23 average property tax increase takes effect. Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts said a “fair tolling policy� must be part of the debate, to end the inequity of some Metro residents paying more in tolls than others. “We have a year,� Watts said. “If we can’t do this in a year, I think we should all just walk away from the table.� – Black Press

hold get-togethers or parties once or twice a year, so neighbours can meet face-to-face. The results have a social benefit beyond crime reduction: “People don’t feel so isolated. They feel like neighbours.” There are other, tangible benefits to Block Watches, too: many insurance brokers also offer discounts on home insurance to home owners who are part of a Block Watch Group, she notes. After talking to their insurance company, they often turn to Chattell as their next step. “They come to me and say, ‘Ok. How do I start one up?’” And finally, Chattell says even the act of adding Block Watch signage has been proven to deter criminal activity. Depending on the size of the properties and proximity of homes, Block Watch groups can be as large as 10 to 15 homes or as small as just three. She keeps in touch with Block Watches via email and newsletter (long gone are the days of cumbersome telephone chains), but participants are also encouraged to chat over the proverbial backyard fence; she finds it’s more conducive to information-sharing. Almost anyone can get involved in Block Watch, from rural homeowners with large properties and cul-de-sac suburbanites, to residential complex-dwellers and basement suite renters. Time commitment is minimal; just an hour or two each month. Starting up a new Block Watch Group is easy, she says. Block Captains receive free training, and then help sign up neighbours who are interested.

Join the celebration On Saturday, the public is invited to join the Surrey RCMP for the Block Watch 25 anniversary celebration. It’s a free, family-oriented event running from 10 a.m to 3 p.m. at Clayton Hall, 18513 70 Avenue, Surrey. There are door prizes and givaways all day, making it the perfect time for residents and families to drop by and find out more about Block Watch. “Come out, ask questions, and find out that it doesn’t take much to get involved,” she says. There will be lots going on; not only is the RCMP’s Air 5 helicopter scheduled to make an appearance, local dignitaries will be there, too. Surrey mayor Diane Watts and councillor Mary Martin are slated to be on hand at 1 p.m. There will be family-friendly activities planned. The Surrey Library will be doing a storytime. There’s also facepainting for the kids. Other participants include Cobbs Bread, Papa Murphy’s Pizza, SpriceSmart, RCMP, CN’s rail safety, the Langley Gymnastics Club, and a Lions barbecue, Fire department personnel, and activities through Surrey Parks and Recreation. The City of Surrey’s neighbourhood emergency planning department will also be on hand; representatives will be handing out emergency kits for home and for blocks.

Local Mounties recognized Cloverdale staff and business supporters nominated too By Jennifer Lang They’re among Surrey’s finest, and they were all nominees for the 15th annual Surrey Board of Trade’s Police Officer of the Year Awards. The awards highlight the superb calibre of work being done by Surrey’s RCMP officers, and their team of municipal employees, volunteers and business supporters. Assistant Commissioner Fraser MacRae described all the nominees as “outstanding” and thanked all the staff and volunteers of the Surrey detachment for their enthusiasm and dedication. Congratulations to the 2011 nominees from the Cloverdale/Port Kells community office. They were: Staff/Sgt. Shirley Steele, who was nominated by the community for Police Officer of the Year. Shona Yuzwa was a finalist in the Municipal Employee award category; She’s been the district coor-

dinator since 1998, providing invaluable service to the community and the RCMP who have worked with her. Reliable and trustworthy, she is also responsible for hiring and training volunteers, training new staff and planning for community events and activities. Constables Jean Bissonnette and Jeff McMichael were nominated for the Arnold Silzer Community Policing Initiative Award. Andrea Dodd of Hyland House Cloverdale, a local homeless shelter, and Jen Temple, sales and marketing director for Trademark Group of Companies (Hillcrest) were finalists in the Police and Business Partnership Award. Dodd has shown great leadership and has made outstanding efforts in the community that have provided safe shelter and assistance with community policing initiatives. Temple has been proactive in reducing crime in the neighbourhood around the complex.

Well-done, Wells

Thanks for the support

Semiahmoo First Nation master carver Leonard Wells toured several local schools earlier this year, including Lord Tweedsmuir Secondary in Cloverdale. Wells spent a week at each school, demonstrating his considerable carving skills as students watched him at work on two western red cedar logs. He was accompanied by First Nations elders who shared history, language, arts and wisdom from their cultures. Wells, who apprenticed under Haida artist Robert Davidson, transformed the logs into welcoming poles for the Surrey School District, as part of the Tree of Life Project. There’s one male figure and a female figure, both with arms outstretched. They now grace the entrance of the Surrey School District’s new education centre near 92 Avenue and 140 Street. The pole raising was held Sept. 16. The project, made possible through a $72,000 federal grant, featured curriculum developed by School District 36’s aboriginal education department. In July, the District Education Centre moved from 14225 56 Ave. to 149033 92 Ave.

George Greenaway Elementary would like to thank some community friends: the Central City Breakers F.C. for donating soccer balls, and Yeera Sami, president of the Cloverdale Community Football Association, for the club’s donation of footballs.

Playgrounds and pumpkins Adams Road Elementary’s new playground equipment will be installed on Oct. 15, during a work party. The Grade 7 students will transform the school into a pumpkin patch Friday Oct. 14 from 2 to 5 p.m. They’ll be selling pumpkins for $5, along with hot chocolate and donuts. Plus, there will be a live music performance by Danica Danielsen, accompanied by Steve Danielsen. White Ghost pumpkins and decorative corn stalks will also be on sale. This is a fundraising event for the Adams Road PAC.

School news

Canadian encounters Three Grade 12 students from Clayton Heights Secondary are taking part in a national program promoting Canadian unity and opportunities for students. Each will attend a one-week session on a theme they’ve chosen, including politics, law, medicine or international relations. This month, Quadeem Salehmohamed is attending the Encounters with Canada Program, while Tom Ghag, who hopes to study law, will be heading to Ottawa Nov. 27 to 3. The other student is Nalin Dhillon, who also hopes to study law.

Great pumpkin patch CONTRIBUTED PHOTO

Proud moment

Semiahmoo master carver Leonard Wells and his mom Eleanor smile as they stand next to Wells’ latest artistic creation – one of two welcoming pole figures carved from western red cedar. The figures stand outside the school district’s new District Education Centre.

On Oct. 7, the front of Martha Currie Elementary school was transformed into a pumpkin patch. Regular orange pumpkins and white ghost pumpkins were for sale, along with gourds, corn stalks and wheat grasses. Students also had the chance to win a giant pumpkin by guessing its weight.

Reading Buddies Program Surrey Libraries’ Coast Capital Reading Buddies Program helps children develop confidence in their reading with the support of teen volunteer mentors. Reading Buddies is a practice reading session at the Cloverdale Library for children in Grades 2 to 4 wanting to improve their reading skills in a safe, nonthreatening environment. It’s a six week program held once a week to improve reading confidence, and build lifelong readers. Note: The program is not designed to teach children how to read. Offered Tuesdays, Oct. 18 to Nov. 22 from 4 to 5 p.m. at the Cloverdale Library, 5642 176A Street. Ask your child’s teacher/librarian for an application form. Download it at www.surreylibraries.ca/programs-services/4941.aspx or contact Cloverdale Library Youth Services Librarian Lucy Zhang at 604-598-7320 or lzhang@surrey.ca for more information.
