‘King’ could bring havoc Delta getting prepared as flooding risk increases with series of king tides SANDOR GYARMATI

s g y a r m a t i @ d e l t a - o p t i m i s t .c o m

A king is coming. Temporary flood protection works at select locations are underway as part of annual flood preparedness activities by the Corporation of Delta, all in anticipation of a so-called “king tide” that could wreak havoc in the coming weeks.

Deputy engineering director Hugh Fraser told municipal politicians earlier this week that king tides combined with storm surges will result in increased flooding risk for the communities of Boundary Bay and Beach Grove. The danger times for the Lower Mainland’s at-risk communities are expected near the end of November, mid and late

December and mid-January. What’s worse, according to a municipal engineering department report, is the tropical Pacific Ocean is experiencing very strong El Nino conditions that are trending towards the largest El Nino event since 199798. Previous El Nino events in 1982 and 1997 were responsible for two of the highest surge and water level events on the coast

of B.C. The intensifying El Nino conditions are expected to lead to increased frequency and intensity of storms, but it’s difficult to forecast the exact storm impacts, which makes constant monitoring imperative to ensure communities are not caught off guard, according to the engineering department.

Delta police were finally able to see a convicted sex offender sent back to the United States this week after six years. In 2009, George Ross Wilcox, a Canadian citizen, was set to go to trial in Arizona on four charges of sexual interference with a minor after he was accused of repeatedly molesting his quadriplegic stepson. He failed to appear in court for the trial and in his absence was convicted on two of the four counts. A warrant for his arrest was issued and multiple police agencies began searching for him. The case was even featured on America’s Most Wanted in 2011. In October of 2009, Delta police were alerted that Wilcox may have returned to Canada. Over the next three years, officers investigated several leads, which culminated in his arrest in August 2012. Wilcox, 57, has been in custody ever since as his lawyers argued against his extradition to the U.S. This summer, the appeal process came to an end and Wilcox’s extradition was ordered. Six years after first being notified about the case, one of the original investigating officers turned Wilcox over to U.S. authorities last Friday. Wilcox will now stand trial on two further counts of sexual conduct with a minor under 15 as well as face sentencing for his previous conviction. In Arizona, sex crimes against minors under 15 carry a maximum sentence of 27 years.

Demand driving up prices Benchmark price for average home in Tsawwassen tops $950,000 in October SANDOR GYARMATI

s g y a r m a t i @ d e l t a - o p t i m i s t .c o m

Real estate in South Delta continues to sizzle with most product being scooped up almost as fast as it hits the market. This level of activity has pushed prices into the stratosphere to the point where the average Tsawwassen home is now approaching $1 million. According to the Greater Vancouver Real Estate Board, the so-called “benchmark” price of an average detached singlefamily house in Ladner stood at $793,200 last month, a 21.8 per cent increase from just a year ago. In Tsawwassen, the price sat at a whopping $954,000, a 26.2 per cent increase from 12 months earlier. Townhomes and condos have also seen increases, although not at nearly the same dramatic rate as detached homes. The Greater Vancouver Real Estate Board says residential home sales in the region have been trending at 25 to 30 per cent above the 10-year sales average for most of the year and that the number of homes listed for sale hasn’t been keeping up with the demand. That’s

Listings don’t last long as buyers from Richmond and Vancouver are helping fuel a hot real estate market in South Delta. a story all too familiar in South Delta. Fraser Elliott, the top realtor in South Delta for the past five years, said there’s a great demand for single-family homes, in part fueled by buyers being priced out of Vancouver and Richmond and discovering South Delta, which, even at increased prices, still offers better value. “Inventory remains way down,” Elliott said. “Right now, there’s 42 homes

for sale in Ladner and 60 in Tsawwassen, singlefamily detached, and a year-and-a-half ago there would have been maybe 145 in Ladner and 165 in Tsawwassen. “It’s very common right now to see multiple offers, bidding wars, sales prices going over list price, and it’s because of the huge demand. A large amount of the buyers are coming from Vancouver and Richmond and the trend has shown no signs of

slowing down.” The Optimist talked to several real estate experts and analysts this summer who noted the mega malls opening at the Tsawwassen First Nation next fall as well as a new bridge in a few years will likely serve to increase the desirability of South Delta. A limited housing stock and the constraints of the Agricultural Land Reserve will also fuel higher prices. One of those keeping an eye on the South

Delta market was Don Campbell, a founding partner of the Real Estate Investment Network, who said South Delta’s relative proximity to Vancouver will be another big factor when it comes to desirability. The lack of housing variety in South Delta remains a concern. Elliott said many older homeowners looking to downsize are finding it difficult and end up moving out of the community as a result. “We’re having a very hard time finding the options for them to downsize and stay local because they’re not really there. If you want to downsize to a condo in Ladner, there’s maybe four or five to choose from in your price bracket, or even less,” he said. In its 2015 Fourth Quarter Housing Forecast Update, the British Columbia Real Estate Association says population growth, led by immigration, continues to exert pressure on the Lower Mainland’s housing stock, especially detached homes. Over the past three decades, over one million immigrants landed in B.C, with the vast majority settling in Metro Vancouver.

Strong winds and high tides to trigger Stage 2 of Delta’s flood plan CONTINUED from Page 1 Using the B.C. Surge Forecasting Program as part of Delta’s emergency preparedness efforts, a number of actions are being undertaken, including the erection of a sand berm in Boundary Bay, which annually costs $30,000. Noting Delta is already in the first stage of flood preparedness, which includes the placement of concrete blocks at beach

access points, Fraser said strategic placement of sandbags is being undertaken at Seaview Road, the 1A Avenue boat launch, and select locations at 3rd and 16th avenues. An additional supply of sandbags is stored at the works yard for the second stage of flood preparedness, while sandbags are now available for the public as well. Fraser said Stage 2 of Delta’s flood plan occurs

when strong southeasterly winds in the range of 80 km/h combine with a high tide. When that happens, the mayor, fire chief, police chief and engineering department are notified and flood protection measures are implemented at beach access points. An additional bundle of 500 sandbags are delivered at each sandbag location, while equipment, including generators, are readied for deployment. The pub-

lic is also notified of the increased risk via message boards. For years temporary measures have been undertaken to protect homes that do not have seawalls, but those residents have been encouraged to construct an engineered seawall that will provide a more permanent solution. Some homes have their own private seawalls but others don’t. Engineering director

Steven Lan said a temporary berm is set up for those homes but the number on Centennial Parkway requiring that protection has reduced over the years as older homes have been demolished and new ones built, triggering a requirement for a seawall to be built as well. In February of 2006, strong winds and a high tide caused extensive flooding in Beach Grove and Boundary Bay.

Young Blood behind drive

SDSS students challenging others to take part in blood donor clinic DAVE WILLIS

d w i l l i s @ d e l t a - o p t i m i s t .c o m

South Delta Secondary is hosting a blood drive tomorrow and the community is encouraged to take part. “We’re trying to encourage students, teachers, community members to give blood and then to realize how important it is,” said Anna Sarafis, who, along with fellow student Alissa Stirling, is spearheading the Young Blood for Life campaign at the Tsawwassen high school. The campaign is a

nationwide, studentled challenge aimed at increasing the number of blood donations and firsttime donors among students aged 17 and older. Stirling said SDSS is competing with other schools around the country and that you don’t have to be a student to donate blood. They both plan to donate blood tomorrow. “Since one in two people are eligible and only one in 60 actually donates, it’s really important to get as many involved,” Stirling said.

SDSS students Alissa Stirling (left) and Anna Sarafis are organizing a blood drive at the school tomorrow. “You can save a life just by giving blood. It takes an hour out of your day or even less,” she said. SDSS vice-principal

Shannon Hunt said studies show if a person donates once, they’re likely to do so again. Tomorrow’s clinic goes

from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the school’s cafeteria. A Facebook page has been set up for the event. Search for SDSS Young Blood for

Life. Future blood drive clinics at the school are scheduled for January and March, Hunt noted.

A 30-month reconfiguration of Deltaport’s intermodal yard will allow the Roberts Bank container terminal to handle more containers on the same footprint.

www.ladnerunited.org

Work on a major addition at Deltaport has begun. Late last month, Global Container Terminals Inc. commenced its intermodal yard reconfiguration project that will enable the container terminal to handle an additional 600,000 TEU (20-foot equivalent units) annually, mostly within the existing terminal footprint. The project involves a rail track reconfiguration and replacement of container cranes with eight electric, wide-span cranes.

The existing eight tracks arranged in two distinct sets of four will be combined into one set of eight, while the seven manually operated container cranes will be replaced with automated cranes. The project also includes a new 42,300-square-foot rail maintenance building. Construction will take about 30 months to complete. The company says its densification approach to the intermodal yard reconfiguration reflects its priority to increase operational efficiency with as little impact on the environment and community as

possible. It is part of the much larger Deltaport Terminal Road and Rail Improvement Project, which also saw a causeway overpass completed by Port Metro Vancouver late last year. Construction is not expected to interrupt rail and road operations to Deltaport and Westshore Terminals. The Corporation of Delta has asked the port authority to ensure a noise assessment be undertaken and that mitigation measures taken to minimize noise impacts on local residents.

TED MURPHY

here’s something to be said for political will. Many concerns have been voiced, and rightly so, over the lack of documentation with regards to the multibillion-dollar project to replace the George Massey Tunnel. The province continues to move forward with its plans for a 10-lane bridge, but efforts by various people to get information on the undertaking have yielded little in response. That’s not right, particularly for a government that boasts about its transparency, but let’s not lose sight of the big picture — after decades of complaints about the inadequacy of the tunnel, we’re finally getting a new crossing. For quite some time we had all been told that replacing and/or expanding the tunnel wasn’t even on Victoria’s radar despite increasing congestion that was lengthening commute times and hindering the economy. I can remember someone in government saying it wouldn’t be until at least 2040 before the province broached the issue. Then, seemingly out of the blue, Premier Christy Clark announced we’d be getting a new crossing during an address to the Union of B.C. Municipalities convention in the fall of 2012. There weren’t a lot of details back then and we’re still short many today, but the single biggest takeaway from all of this is the fact the Liberal government has committed to fixing what has been the bane of so many commuters for so many years. Yes, we need technical details and a business case, but all of that is moot without the requisite political intent. Maybe I’m too naïve or too trusting, but given the tunnel replacement isn’t this government’s first rodeo, I suspect the appropriate level of detail for such a massive, to say nothing of costly, undertaking will be provided in due time. You don’t have to be a traffic engineer to know the tunnel is woefully outdated and in desperate need of expansion or replacement. Heck, George Massey himself said it should have been wider — and that was back in the 1950s before it even opened! We could study this issue to death, and so we should to ensure the best possible result, but without someone in a position of power providing the OK, there’s no light at the end of the tunnel.

Hard to know if we’re ready for traffic malls will bring

y column of three weeks ago about the bridge to replace the George Massey Tunnel combined with the FOI debacle in the legislature seemed to generate some significant interest into the decision making in B.C. As the smoke clears, we still do not know how the premier was able to make the announcement with no briefing papers. Personally, I don’t think we are being told the truth, and that bothers me a lot. I wish to raise another similar matter — the coming traffic mayhem with the opening of the Tsawwassen First Nation malls next year. Traffic will be impossible for those getting in or out of Tsawwassen, or trying to access the malls or the ferry terminal. Worrying about this, I asked the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure about its plans to handle the traffic. It said the work was being done by TFN, based on a report the TFN has commissioned. A call to TFN produced a memo that said, “All will be OK,” but no details. A call back to the ministry resulted in it saying it was TFN’s report and it could not release it. An FOI request filed Sept. 1 has

Community Comment IAN ROBERTSON

not been responded to, despite rules that required a response by mid-October. Is there information? Yes, because I have already had to pay over $40 and the information has been “in the final signoff stage” for a month. The ministry plans to increase the number of lanes from two to three each way near the malls, along with better turning lanes, better traffic lights and a system to smooth the surge from an unloading ferry. This will handle an increase of capacity of say 50 per cent. It has circulated 12 large pages of the details of the upgraded road right down to the colour of the curbs and where every single sign will be located. What’s the fuss? What will be the impact of the malls?

The parking lots of Tsawwassen Mills and Tsawwassen Commons will hold over 8,500 cars, more than 20 times (2,000 per cent) the size of the biggest ferry. What happens when the malls empty and say half of those cars go home? That’s equal to 10 ferries landing at the same time. Sorry, but that’s not public knowledge, not information the ministry will disclose. The report prepared for TFN in 2012, and on which all of this is based, states that traffic coming on Highway 17 and wanting to turn into Tsawwassen will be unacceptable once the malls open! In 2012, Delta council asked the ministry for remedies, but the ministry said “all will be well.” Three years later it won’t even disclose a credible plan for fear of criticism. How can we avoid a disaster? One person, familiar with traffic, said we will need to experience some traffic deaths before any action will be taken by the ministry. Really? Is this necessary? Time for serious planning. Ian Robertson is a three-decade resident of South Delta, a professional engineer and has been a member of the 1990 and 2011 Tsawwassen Area Plan committees.

Ceremony security detail over the top

Editor: What a beautiful, bright sunny day for this year’s Remembrance Day ceremony that I attended with my 10-year-old son in our hometown of Ladner. We left home both proudly wearing our poppies and dark colours in respect of the departed. Alas, it soon turned sour as while watching the parade armed police carrying semi-automatic assault weapons came storming through the large crowd of families, young children and elderly folk. I shudder to think what

would have happened if there had been an incident as these “uncapped police officers” had their fingers on their triggers ready to fire, exposing us all to a potential hail of bullets. Then the so-called security detail turned out to be no more than a motley crew of unkempt louts. They were clad in baggy jeans, ill-fitting T-shirts, Harley Davidson ball caps or beanies and wore an assorted collection of “borrowed” reflective vests. These degenerates showed little regard to

the respectful spectators. In fact, one of the security members was downright confrontational, demanding that we get behind the barricades whose placement no one seemed to know anything about. Their despicable behaviour continued as they did not even have the common courtesy to remove their hats in respect when the Last Post was sounded or the two-minute silence was being observed. Instead they continued chatting and laughing with each other or talking on their cell phones.

I am rather confused. Is Ladner now the hotbed for terrorist activity in Canada as it appears we need battle-ready armed police? With all those taxes we pay, could we not have afforded a proper security service that merits those brave fallen soldiers? It surely was a Day of Remembrance but for all the wrong reasons. Next year we will attend the Vancouver ceremony as I want to show my son how dignified and honourable these commemorations should be conducted. G. Campbell

Delta’s farm roads no longer look like they once did

Editor: I have lived in Tsawwassen for the majority of my life. Since I was a child, I loved the drive between Tsawwassen and Ladner along the farm roads and onto Arthur Drive, particularly in November when it was often grey, foggy and you could sometimes smell the leftover cabbage in the

fields. This fall I have had such a strong feeling of sadness driving those same farm roads that are now home to the Tsawwassen Mills, a development that will continue to spread and take over even more of the precious farmland. It will be home to many stores selling over-packaged items that we may or may

not need and could be the end for many of our small local stores. This summer the Ladner Village Market was packed with people eager to buy local produce and support local artisans and yet between Tsawwassen Mills and development on the Southlands, farmland is being lost. I was further disap-

pointed to hear about the proposed LNG terminal. We have been shown that even with best practices used this is still an extremely risky operation and potentially environmentally catastrophic. I truly hope the TFN votes against this development. I am worried for our community. Rebecca Davis

More than just TFN voices need to be heard on proposed LNG plant

Editor: Re: LNG plant for TFN lands, Nov. 18 I just read with dismay the article regarding the TFN proposal to construct a liquefied natural gas

facility at Roberts Bank. I sincerely hope our community’s concern and vision for the environment is able to be heard regarding this proposal. I do not welcome further heavy

industrialization, tanker traffic and increased hazardous truck or rail car traffic in our community or in the vicinity of sensitive marine and rural environments. Nor do I believe

additional pipelines running through these same areas to be a wise idea. There are other voices that need to heard on this subject, not just the TFN’s. Patrick Simpkins

Poppy seller is grateful for the kindness shown by Tsawwassen residents

Editor: I sold poppies for 10 days in Tsawwassen. Thank you to the lovely

people who bought me tea, coffee and hot chocolate. And the kind man who bought me a hotdog.

Delta is vital habitat for raptors and has the highest concentration of these birds in Canada. For one species in particular — the barn owl — Delta’s fertile fields and lush marshlands are nearly all they have. There are two populations of barn owl in Canada: one in Ontario and Quebec, and the other in British Columbia, located primarily in the Lower Mainland. Both populations are at the extreme edge of their range and are in a fight for survival. Though B.C. does not have provincial endangered species legislation, the national Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada declared the Western population a “threatened species” in 2010. These are beautiful creatures, with distinctive white, heart-shaped faces and slender, tawny, speckled bodies. Like many

threatened species, the key problem facing the barn owl is habitat loss. Barn owls are closely tied to agricultural landscapes. They are efficient predators and survive primarily on rodents like the Townsend’s vole, which live in the thick underbrush of old-field habitat, marshland and lightlygrazed pasture. Yet urban development, pesticide poisoning and road con-

It is critical for Delta’s barn owls that we support both public education and the valuable local initiatives of groups that protect foraging habitat, create nesting boxes, and support farmers in agricultural practices that maintain both economic and environmental sustainability. Tomorrow, I invite you to join myself, OWL, Earthwise Society, Delta Naturalists’ Society, Wilderness Committee and the Boundary Bay Conservation Committee at 2 p.m. in the Southlands red barn for a lively discussion, short documentary film screening and live barn owl “show-andtell.” Together, I’m hopeful we can build a better future for these threatened birds that add so much to Delta’s unique cultural and ecological landscapes.

I was sitting in the living room of a grand Whistler chalet earlier this week with a group of ministry folk as we discussed important things about mission and ministry. I had offered to light a fire in the great fire place but since it had been raining and snowing and all the wood was outside and wet, it was a challenging task. Nothing like being in the spotlight to make it even more challenging. Thankfully we were going around the circle sharing some inspirational idea and while I was listening, I was also quietly going about the process of

Minister’s Minute DANIEL KIRKEGAARD

lighting the fire. After crumpling some paper and building a kindling teepee a few times, the wood had finally dried

enough to catch on the third attempt. Within a few minutes there was a wonderfully warm blazing fire. Lo and behold it was now my turn to speak and the passage that jumped into my thoughts was ministry is “…Like a fire burning within…” found in the passage of Luke 24: 32 as part of the Emmaus Road story. We have to tend the fire until it blazes bright. Sometimes it may feel a bit like we are working with wet kindling but if we persist and allow flame of the Holy Spirit to grow within us the warmth of God’s love can then be a blessing to all those around us.

Film urges action on climate change

Reach campaign gets a boost from market Smith presented the cheque to Reach at Kinsmen House in Ladner, the building site of Reach’s new development centre. “We are deeply moved by the local community support that this cheque represents,” said Barbara Wallick, chair of Reach Foundation. To date, $4 million has been raised from individual and community donors to build a new children’s community resource centre in the heart of Ladner. The new location will make Reach services more visible and easily accessible to families.

Does the Virto V Replace Traditional Hearing Aids? Whether at work, during conversations in small groups or when watching television, one in six adults experience problems when it comes to accurate speech comprehension and hearing in everyday situations. Although background noise and music can impair communication with friends and family, two thirds of those affected still do not use any hearing aids. There are many reasons for this but for most people it’s that they are not convinced that hearing aids will significantly benefit them or it’s the unease they feel about attracting attention by wearing a visible hearing aid. This is why the Swiss manufacturer Phonak has developed a world first: Virto V. These hearing aids are manufactured using a modern 3D printing process that provides a custom-fit miniature hearing aid that disappears into the ear canal, making it almost invisible to others. Despite its small size, the latest and most advanced Phonak hearing technology is still contained in the casing.

For some clients, the smaller design of the Virto V hearing aids might possibly replace the more traditional behind-the-ear hearing aids, and like many of our other products, these hearing aids can easily connect wirelessly with TVs and smartphones,” explains Prof. Stefan Launer, CSO of the Swiss manufacturer Phonak. See how the virtually invisible Virto V fits into your daily routine.

Prof. Stefan Launer, CSO of Swiss If you are interested in finding out more manufacturer Phonak, presents about these new hearing aids, the first step is to book hearing evaluation and the new Virto V hearing aids. Virtual function of the ear

“Thanks to a new operating system, these new hearing aids can provide a virtual alternative for natural hearing, as experienced by people with normal hearing. Through intelligent control, the software can improve speech understanding, even in loud situations and by utilizing the 3D printing process, these hearing aids fit the natural anatomy of the ear as closely as possible making them truly a custom-fit solution.

determine if the new Virto V technology is the right solution for you. For those who are hard of hearing, this can be particularly useful for finding out whether it is possible to hear and understand more clearly with discreet in-the-canal hearing solutions.

At Connect Hearing we offer you the chance to be among the first to try these state-of-the-art hearing aids. Call 1.888.408.7377 to book your complimentary evaluation today.

Terry came to us as a trapped feral that has since turned quite friendly. Terry lived outdoors and was being fed by his finder who was then able to trap him when Terry bit his own tongue and needed medical assistance. He was going to be returned to the finder’s home after he got all fixed up but he decided that perhaps he’d rather be a friendly inside cat instead! Terry doesn’t seem to mind other cats in the shelter and can be seen hanging out with other cats in our communal room. We feel Terry would do best in a home with no dog but may do well with older children who understand cat body language. Terry likely will be fine as an indoor cat in his new home as long as there’s a bright window for him to stare out and watch the world go by. Can Terry get comfortable in your home?

Washington coffee chain coming north

Woods Coffee announces it will open first Canadian outlet at Tsawwassen Springs Woods Coffee is partnering with White Spot parent company Shato Holdings Ltd. to open its first Canadian coffee shop at Tsawwassen Springs in early 2016. The company, which has 17 locations in Washington state, made the announcement earlier this week. “We’re excited to see the

growth of a family-based, premium coffee service into B.C., and believe this will be a great addition to the Tsawwassen community,” said Warren Erhart, president of White Spot. “As a Shato Holdings brand, the Woods Coffee company shares the same values as White Spot, offering high quality premium products and

exceptional guest service.” Woods Coffee says it will maintain its signature Pacific Northwest feel as it expands north. Tsawwassen customers will enjoy a drive-through feature for coffee on the go, along with an indoor fireplace around which guests will enjoy Woodsroasted coffee and madefrom-scratch baked treats.

ports Day in Canada takes place tomorrow and locals can get involved at civic facilities around Delta. In South Delta, the Ladner Leisure Centre, South Delta Recreation Centre and Winskill Aquatic & Fitness Centre all have activities people can watch or try out. “This is an opportunity for people to come and try something or at least view

something that might be different and they might be interested in,” says Delta recreation program coordinator Kelly Wilson.

Just a few examples of activities in South Delta tomorrow to view or take part in include swimming, badminton, exercise classes, skating, water polo and water volleyball.

programs. “Having the chance to showcase that, in all our facilities across the board is great,” she says. General admission rates still apply.

For schedules or more information visit delta.ca or call 604-952-3000. Wilson adds that Sports Day in Canada is an RBC initiative and that RBC recently gave Delta a grant for after school programming for kids from kindergarten to Grade 4. Delta Gymnastics held a “Try It” afternoon last Saturday as part of the community build up around Sports Day in Canada. “Delta Gymnastics and the Corporation of Delta believe that sport participation is important for

children to develop physical literacy, a term coined to describe a person’s motivation and ability to successfully participate in physical activity. Through participation in RBC Sports Day in Canada, members of Delta can develop their skills, try a new sport and develop healthy habits to be active for life,” a press release reads. • Activities, like water polo, water volleyball and underwater hockey, are also taking place in North Delta at Sungod Recreation Centre.

Local musicians Jerry Doucette and Ken Boychuk present their seventh annual Christmas toy drive show tomorrow at the Tsawwassen Legion. Last year’s event was a big success, says Doucette. “We had a lot of fun.

The people here in Ladner and Tsawwassen donated a mountain of toys,” he says, adding cash donations allowed them to fill about six shopping carts full of toys too. The proceeds go to Deltassist, a non-profit social services organization that runs an annual Toy Depot for kids from

low-income families. The Doucette Band will headline the show while the East Clintwood Band, Southside Vibe, All the King’s Men, Delta Pipers Club and Chris Gilburg with Flat Tire are also on the bill. Doucette, known for his hit Mama Let Him Play, is hoping for another big

turnout for this edition of the show. People who come have a lot of fun and “dance all night,” he says. The Christmas toy drive show is set for tomorrow at 6:30 p.m. at “The Stage” at the Tsawwassen Legion, 22-1835-56th St. Live music is scheduled to start at 7 p.m.

Suggested entry fee is a new unwrapped toy valued at approximately $20 or an equivalent cash donation. There will also be a silent auction. SCAN WITH TO REVEAL VIDEO

Gardeners who are mourning dead trees and shrubs and dehydrated plants might love any Christmas gift that could help them through a similar dry spell next year. Few people say, “Oh how beautiful,” about presents that make watering easier, but these gifts can be met with gratitude for years to come. The heritage-type wooden rain-barrels are nice-looking and last a while if treated with respect. But they tend to leak when liquid runs low. Sometimes wooden halfbarrels can be found with plastic liners, but these are better at creating container ponds than for storing water. More workable choices are sturdy plastic barrels that are crafted to look like heritage ones. These have useful variations like flat backs (to fit against a wall), links for adding extra barrels, screening, and water taps and spigots for attaching hoses. There are also budgetpriced barrels of polycarbonate that also feature screens, spigots and are linkable to other barrels. Stands are available for them. These give water barrels enough elevation for filling watering cans. Not everyone wants to give up beautiful wall-side plantings for rows of barrels. But it is possible to buy connectors so that downspout water is carried to wherever the barrels have been placed. People who have been struggling with vinyl hoses

Optimist contributor

While Art Has A Voice is the collective name of the exhibition now running at Gallery 1710, this singular title brings together the individual voices and viewpoints of every participating artist set visibly on each of the record 162 works of art on display. For this show, the longest-running ever held by the South Delta Artists Guild and set to hang through Dec. 20, the 140 members were invited to produce work reflecting this season of caring, gift-giving and general goodwill, plus the warmth of colour and effect so welcome in winter. The result is that Gallery 1710 is aglow with a great variety of outstanding art, including many small

paintings. Many different styles, techniques and materials complement ideas and subject matter, and for this show several artists have made interesting switches in their work. Birgit Coath, admired for her large-scale Tibetbased oils, offers small and beautiful, while Jodie Blaney has made a major switch to large-scale expressive landscapes like Shannon Falls Autumn. Eileen Fong has also moved up to large mountain landscapes, while Ellen Hines offers a variety of small inventivelyhumorous paintings. Watercolourist Marlene Strain, known for her large atmospheric work, shows several small, delicatelyworked silhouettes, and Sandra Taylor, whose big free-wheeling expressive

paintings always draw attention, has also worked small for this show. Many other well-known artists have produced outstanding work at modest prices. For the run of Art Has A Voice, the guild will accept (in specially marked Gallery 1710 corners) art supplies for Deltassist as well as donations for the food bank and for the Delta Community Animal Shelter’s Tollie Fund for animals requiring surgery. Donations will be passed on as the show progresses. Gallery 1710, adjacent to the South Delta Recreation Centre at 1710-56th St., Tsawwassen, is open Thursday to Sunday, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. For further information, call 604-943-3313 or visit www.southdeltaartistsguild.com.

Delta composer Lesley Sutherland has started a new creative arts-based Sunday school program at St. David’s Anglican Church. Last Sunday, a cast of more than 20 starred in the first production, Mustard.

Composer launches creative arts program at St. David’s proposed the idea for the Creation Zone last year. The Creation Zone welcomes any interested children and youth aged five to 17. The program runs Sundays during the 10 a.m. service and explores themes through drama, music and art projects. The inaugural production, Mustard, based on the parable of the mustard seed, includes original music by Sutherland, and will play again at All Saints Anglican Church this Sunday at 10 a.m. Next up will be The Star of Bethlehem, a festive

evening presenting the Christmas story through beautiful music, lessons, drama and sing-along carols. Set for Sunday, Dec. 13 at 7:30 p.m., it will feature the choirs of St. David’s as well as the children and youth of the Creation Zone. Families are invited to be part of this special evening and are welcome to join in on the fun with the Creation Zone on Sunday mornings or with the Christmas Choir on Thursdays at 7:30 p.m. To learn more, call St. David’s at 604-943-4737.

Devils back in BC Place as underdogs South Delta faces No. 1 ranked & unbeaten Terry Fox Saturday in provincial AAA quarter-finals South Delta Sun Devils return to the venue where they pulled off one of their biggest wins in school history just over a year ago. It might be a similar celebration if they can do it again on Saturday. The defending provincial AAA football champions will be sizeable underdogs when they take on the No. 1 ranked and unbeaten Terry Fox Ravens at B.C. Place Stadium in quarter-final action at 5:30 p.m. The Devils are coming off a wild 59-49 win over Mt Boucherie the previous week, while the Ravens enjoyed a bye week thanks to finishing first in the Eastern Conference. South Delta’s memorable run in 2014 did include a semi-final upset of the Ravens at a frigid

own ground game that has gained plenty of traction the past couple of outings. Grade 10 standout Michael Calvert has been taking most of the snaps at quarterback and his scrambling ability adds another dimension to the offensive scheme. He had 10 carries for 94 yards and three touchdowns last Friday, while backfield mate Grant McDonald had a monster game with 317 yards and four touchdowns on 36 rushing attempts. Still, it was the Bears’ 536 yards passing that resulted in a few restless nights for Moon and his staff. “We had too many guys out of position and they simply didn’t do their jobs,” he added. That will have to change come Saturday.

Tiebreaker costs young Sun Devils quarter-final berth MARK BOOTH

m b o o t h @ d e l t a - o p t i m i s t .c o m

The fine line between being in and out of championship contention was a lesson learned for the South Delta Sun Devils at last week’s BC AAA Field Hockey Championships in Duncan. The young squad headed to the Island hoping to crack the top eight which would serve well in the seasons ahead with so many players eligible to return. The Sun Devils came up just short of their goal, settling for 11th place after dealing with a demanding schedule in mostly rainy conditions. South Delta and McMath finished tied for second spot in their pool group, behind eventual champion Cowichan. The Richmond school was given the quarter-final berth by virtue of scoring

more goals over the three round-robin games. The Wildcats took of advantage of a quicker astro turf field to throttle Chilliwack 10-1, while on a slower surface South Delta beat its Valley rival 5-0. Even with the maximum goal differential in effect, McMath (+3) edged South Delta (+2) to advance. Veteran head coach Neil McLennan didn’t allow a tiebreaker formula get in the way of what his girls achieved in the six games, played over just three days. “We set a goal for the top eight so on that measure we did not achieve what we set out to do. However, we played very, very well in all the games. It was only two or three errors at unfortunate times in unfortunate places on the field that prevented us for reaching the top half,” said McLennan. “I have to give huge credit to all the girls, espe-

We demonstrated true character and the pursuit of excellence.” The pivotal game against McMath ended in a 2-2 draw as the Devils battled back with a pair of second half goals, despite a steady downpour that resulted in standing water in the attacking area. The girls played exceptionally hard against a powerful Cowichan side, falling 3-0. The Sun Devils moved

on to consolation play where they promptly took care of Sardis 5-0, setting the stage for a meeting with 2014 champion Shawnigan Lake. The 7:30 a.m. Saturday morning start was played in cool but dry conditions and featured excellent tactical hockey from both squads. South Delta enjoyed some good chances to break a scoreless deadlock in the second half, including four corners, but couldn’t capitalize. The Island squad netted the game winner on its own

corner as time expired. “I do not enjoy losing but this was one of those games where the quality was so high that a loss did not feel too bad,” noted McLennan. “It was not decided by some fluke, bad bounce or error. It was just one of those things that happen in a sporting contest.” South Delta closed out the tournament a couple of hours later against Charles Best and finished with a flourish, scoring four unanswered goals in the second half to defeat the Coquitlam school 4-1.

The Delta Footmen U11 tier one team overcame some wild weather and strong opponents to capture last weekend’s Roadrunner Romp Field Lacrosse Tournament in Richmond. After an opening 8-3 loss to a strong Surrey team in a steady downpour, the Footmen rebounded with wins over Langley (8-2) and Victoria (24-1). A 2-1 record left them fourth in the 12-team round robin standings — just enough to advance to the semifinals. The task was a rematch with Surrey. The game was unfolding in similar fashion to the first meeting with Surrey taking a 4-1 lead into the fourth quarter. Behind some timely stops by goaltender Niles Abramson and resilient defensive work by Reece Palmer, Carter Torok, Robert Sheldrick and Brad Jansen, Delta launched a comeback. The locals eventually pulled even in the dying seconds when Tristan

In overtime, Cameron Squarek scored quickly to give the Footmen a one goal lead, but Surrey was able to counter. With a minute to play in overtime, Jared Maznik scored the winning goal, sending his team into the gold medal game. A strong Langley opponent was looking to avenge its only loss of the tournament, but behind tenacious team defence and timely scoring, the boys went on to a 9-4 victory. Coaches Drew

Christie Li has a Bachelor Degree of Automation from Anhui University, China. Before she moved to Canada in 2006, she worked at Inventec as a software engineer for more than ten years training in Shanghai & Taipei. Because of her outstanding achievement in the field of engineering, she was quickly promoted to the position of Project Manager, negotiating project details with customers and team members. She is devoted to her customers and works tirelessly on their behalf. Her attention to detail along with her ability to listen, is what made her successful in her career. After making her home in Vancouver she focused on improving her English and taking care of her family. In 2015 she passed the real estate trading service exam and joined the Royal Lepage Regency Realty Ltd office. She is the first local agent who can speak fluently in both English and Mandarin in South Delta. Upon the trend of more and more Mandarin speakers choosing to live in South Delta, I believe she could provide professional real estate service to clients. Christie enjoys swimming and skating with her children and likes to cook traditional Chinese food for her family. Surrounded by excellent staff, skilled colleagues and professional support, Christie looks forward to working with you and becoming your real estate agent in South Delta. Please call Christie for any Real Estate needs at 604-943-7411.

CELEBRATIONS

BUTCHART, John (Jack) Edward February 13, 1926 - November 12, 2015 Beloved husband, father, grandfather and great grandfather passed away peacefully at the age of 89. John (Jack) Edward Butchart was a devoted husband to his wife, Kathy, and a loving father to his son, David, both who wait for him at heaven’s gates. Jack is survived by his daughter, Diana Striker, granddaughters, Caitlin Striker and Jillian (Jeremy) Davis, and great grandchildren, Linden and Evelyn. Also survived by brother Bill and many nieces and nephews. Jack was born and raised in Alberta and moved to Vancouver as a young man. He moved his family to Ontario for a few years but eventually returned to British Columbia, settling in Tsawwassen, a community that he lived in and supported for 44 years.

Throughout his life, Jack wore many hats (literally and figuratively). He played professional football for a short time in his youth, graduated from the Faculty of Business at UBC, worked as a salesman for many years with the John A. Houston Company before branching out on his own, helped provide scholarships for many students through his fund raising efforts with the “Pot & Kettle” Club and was a zealous fundraiser for Delta Hospital. His proudest achievement, aside from his family, was serving his country with the Canadian Army and 1st Canadian Parachute Battalion for the Royal Canadian Air Force. Jack loved life and people. He was a keen fisherman, an avid golfer and a world traveler. He was a man who held himself to high standards, yet it was the simple things in life that he enjoyed the most: a stiff rum & coke, a good cigar, singing toys, silly Christmas hats, scotch mints and most of all, his wife and family. A private family gathering has been held in his memory. The family would like to thank the staff at Mountainview Manor in Ladner for their care and support. Donations may be made in his memory to the Delta Hospital Foundation.
