Scott Reynolds and Gemma Smith picked up litter around a cherry blossom tree near St. Andrew’s Anglican Church on Saturday morning. They and many others volunteered their time and efforts for the Township of Langley’s second annual Clean Up Langley Day, held in celebration of Earth Day. The event was presented by the Township’s Adopt-A-Program, which encourages residents, schools, organizations, and businesses to clean up litter with supplies, safety information, and garbage removal supplied by the Township.

Langley walks 51st time this weekend

Through all of the past 50 years, the emphasis of the Langley Walk has been on community and health.

For half a century, Langley residents have laced up their shoes, gathering their families and friends, and exploring various neighbourhoods during the annual Langley Walk. The tradition continues this year as the 51st event is held on Sunday, May 5, starting in Douglas Park at 20550 Douglas Cres. The Walk, jointly presented by Langley City and Township, gets started at 1:30 p.m., but participants can come down any time after noon to register and enjoy entertainment. A five- and a 10-kilometre route – a large portion of which will be on the Nicomekl Flood Plain trails – will be offered. People can walk, run, bike, rollerblade, or push a stroller. The event is free, and all who finish will receive a commemorative crest. Last year, a significant milestone was celebrated: the 50th annual Langley Walk. The volunteer committee of community members formed to organize the event is spearheading the Walk again this year. “We’re encouraging everyone to join us in this free, non-competitive, highly enjoyable walk that is appropriate for all ages,” said the committee’s Kari Medos. “This year walkers will enjoy the beauty of the Nicomekl Flood Plain, Sendall Gardens, and for those wanting

Roadways

Voters are marking their ballots early for Langley’s two ridings.

Advance voting gets easier Family

by Matthew Claxton mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

It’s never been easier to cast a ballot for a provincial election. Election officers for the Langley and Fort LangleyAldergrove ridings have their offices up and running, and people are already coming through the doors to mark down their choice for a local MLA. There has been plenty of interest already, say both officers. “A tremendous amount,” said Diane Gillis, elections officer in Langley. She’s hired extra staff, and as of last week, more than 100 people had voted in the office and there was a steady demand for packages containing mail-in ballots. Gillis has contacted local high schools and has hired some students for work at voting places. Young people interested in voting and the election are spreading the word through Facebook and other social media to their friends, she said. “I think that’ll really help for the younger generation,” Gillis said. In Fort Langley-Aldergrove, elections officer Barrie Silliker is also seeing a lot of public interest early this year. He’s hiring 450 election officials to cover the 24 polling places that will be open on May 14. Voters can receive information in the Langley riding at unit 201-20621 Logan Avenue, or at 1-26004 Fraser Hwy. for Fort Langley-Aldergrove.

The names of the victims have been released. by Matthew Claxton mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

Langley City Mayor Peter Fassbender cast an early ballot last week. He is running for a Surrey seat as a Liberal candidate, and will be in that riding on May 14. Matthew Claxton/Langley Advance

Offices in both locations are open 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. during the week, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturdays. The official advance voting will take place between May 811, from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. In Fort Langley-Aldergrove, voting will take place at the Mountainview Alliance Church at 7640 200th St., and at the Aldergrove Legion at 26607 Fraser Hwy. In the Langley riding, advance voting will take place at the Langley United Church at 5673

200th St., or at the George Preston Recreation Centre at 20699 42nd Ave. To vote, residents should have their “where to vote” card along with a piece of government issued ID with their name and address. If they don’t have their ID, they must have two documents, including utility bills or prescriptions, that show their name. At least one document must show their home address. Official election day is May 14 from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.

The crash in South Surrey on Sunday killed five members of a single family. The BC Coroners Service released the names of all the victims of the crash at the intersection of 176th Street and 32nd Avenue. Pawandeep Arjot, 31, her children Annish Sachdeva and Jessica Sachdeva, five and three respectively, Arjot’s sister-in-law Neelam Rani Dhingra, 47, and mother-inlaw Vidya Wanti Sachdeva, 68, were all declared dead at the scene. Arjot was driving on 176th Street when her 1994 Toyota Corolla was broadsided by a mini-van at about 11 a.m. on April 28. The driver of the van, a 46-year-old Langley man, survived with serious injuries. Police said the Corolla was torn apart. Debris landed hundreds of metres from the crash scene. Early investigation showed the minivan may have run the red light. No charges have been laid by the RCMP, and what is expected to be a complex investigation is still taking place.

TOLLS ARE TAXES Paying a toll to cross the Port Mann Bridge and the Golden Ears Bridge is a tax, plain and simple. People in Langley should not have to pay exorbitant and unfair charges as they go to and from work, to medical appointments, or engage in business. A BC Conservative government will provide relief for British Columbians by introducing a tax credit of up to $408 for frequent toll-payers. Thatʼs the equivalent of 68 round-trips over the Port Mann Bridge.

Courts

Langley biker had cocaine, cash stashed in home A Hells Angel who kept his cash in hidden compartments has pleaded guilty on drug charges. by Kim Bolan

Special to the Langley Advance

A full-patch member of the White Rock Hells Angels pleaded guilty in Surrey Provincial Court Tuesday to possession of cocaine for the purpose of trafficking. Brent Douglas Milne, 51, will remain

on bail pending a sentencing hearing on Sept. 23. And his freedom may not be the only thing Milne loses – the B.C. government has filed a lawsuit to seize his home, three vehicles and the cash found by officers. Milne is fighting that move. His lawyer, John Buchanan, told Judge Ellen Gordon that his client would enter a guilty plea to the criminal charge, and waived reading of the indictment. When Gordon asked Milne if that was correct, he simply said, “Yes ma’am.” Dressed all in black, the long-time biker declined to comment to a Vancouver Sun

reporter outside court. Abbotsford Police drug investigators executed a search warrant at Milne’s Langley home last May after an investigation into cocaine trafficking in Abbotsford. Just under 800 grams of cocaine in 12 Ziploc bags were seized from the house at 27019 28A Ave. in Aldergrove, along with $27,865 cash. At the time, Abbotsford police Const. Ian MacDonald said police obtained information earlier this year about the alleged involvement of the Hells Angels in the

Witnesses sought to three-car collision A three-car crash that sent several people to hospital is under RCMP investigation. by Matthew Claxton

mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

The Langley RCMP want witnesses to help them sort out the chain of events that sent three cars careening on April 24th. At around 8:30 p.m., police responded to reports of a crash on 248th Street near Saddlehorn Crescent. They found a destroyed Dodge Neon with a woman behind the wheel, with a severe cut to one ankle. Her son in the backseat was unhurt, said Cpl. Holly Marks of the Langley RCMP. Another vehicle, a white flat-deck

truck, was partially in a ditch and a man was lying on the ground nearby. Passersby were giving medical attention to the woman in the Neon and the man near the flat-deck. A red Mazda pickup had rolled down an embankment, its driver receiving minor injuries. As far as police have been able to reconstruct, the driver of the white truck, a 35-year-old Langley man, may have been impaired. The truck was headed south on 248th and allegedly swerved into the oncoming lane. The 19-year-old Mazda driver tried to avoid the flat deck, clipped it, and then rolled down a steep embankment, said Marks. The Neon was driving behind the Mazda and was unable to get out of the way of the flat deck. The two vehicles collided head on.

The woman with the injured leg was transported to hospital by an Air Ambulance helicopter. Local Mounties and members of the Integrated Collision Analyst Reconstruction Service are working on the investigation. Blood samples were taken and will be analyzed for alcohol content, said Marks. Despite the evidence already collected, police would like to speak to anyone who saw the accident, or who saw the white flat deck’s driving pattern just before the crash. In particular, a witness stopped and helped the Ford truck’s driver get out of the vehicle. That person, and anyone else who stopped at the scene but did not give their name to an RCMP officer, is being asked to call the Langley RCMP at 604-532-3200.

Abbotsford drug trade. Federal prosecutor Ernie Froess said later Tuesday that “the Crown intends to seek a jail sentence in the penitentiary range as well as forfeiture of all offencerelated property that was seized by the police.” A claim filed in the Chilliwack Law Courts by the director of B.C.’s civil forfeiture office says the house was purchased in 1999 in part with “proceeds from the trafficking of cannabis and cocaine.” The lawsuit alleges that over 13 years, Milne built his equity in the property with drug profits. Other items found during the May 16, 2012 search by police include 92 grams of pot, a cash-counting machine, brass knuckles with a knife blade, digital scales, Hells Angels paraphernalia, a collapsible baton and score sheets documenting drug sales. Some of the seized cash was found rolled up and hidden in a secret compartment of an end table in a spare bedroom, the claim says. The bulk of it – $25,720 – “was located in the false bottom of a nightstand in the master bedroom.” The government alleges the three vehicles were also purchased with drug money and should be forfeited. In Milne’s response, he claims the house was acquired using “third-party financing, savings and gifts from legitimate sources” and that it “was not used to facilitate any illegal activity.” He also claims that the police search of his house amounted to trespassing and violated his Charter rights and that none of his property should be forfeited.

Marking ballot not that hard

If you’re considering voting, but you don’t know if you’re registered, fear not. Are you 18 years old or older, and do you possess Canadian citizenship? Then this shouldn’t be too difficult. You can mark a ballot in the upcoming British Columbia provincial election, if you follow a few simple procedures. First, you should know that there was a simple online method to sign up as a voter. It’s now closed, but this still leaves a number of ways to get yourself registered. First, you need to know where you live. Second, you need to have some kind of ID. Email with Option one, according to Elections BC, is to have a piece of government issued ID with your name, photo, and residential address. Your driver’s licence is ideal, or a B.C. Identification Card or B.C. Services Card for those who don’t drive. A Certificate of Indian Status from the feds will also work. Don’t have any of those? If your wallet was just stolen, you will need two documents that show your name, and at least one of them must also contain your home address. Bills are the best bets here – your cable bill will finally be good for something other than providing episodes of Duck Dynasty. However, according to Elections BC, a wide range of items, including hospital bracelets, bank statements, and membership cards will suffice. What is not acceptable? Nothing handwritten. You cannot scrawl “John Smith livez here” on a table napkin and vote anywhere you want. Most voters will be getting a card in the mail telling them where to vote, if they’re already registered. However, if you are uncertain and didn’t get a card, you can vote at any polling place in the province on voting day. That includes polling places in other ridings. It may take a little bit longer to get through the paperwork but it’s still easier than figuring out the instructions for your new DVR. In other words, if you want to vote, you don’t have an excuse not to. – M.C.

Park no place for racing cars

Dear Editor, It was with a considerable level of dismay that I learned that Metro Vancouver will be considering an application to restore the racing track in Campbell Valley Park as an active venue [Racing to get study, April 16, Langley Advance]. It’s a very bad idea to try and mix the noise and party atmosphere that comes with cars and booze with the quiet and tranquil atmosphere that comes with park hiking and nature and equestrian trails. If a small special-interest group wants to resurrect the nostalgic entertainment value of days gone by, when the automobile was held in esteem as the centre of a teen culture obsessed with hot Mustangs and GTOs, it should find an appropriate place, away from the invaluable heritage of parkland. Bob Duncan of Fernridge makes an argument in favour of the raceway [Some love horses, some cars, April 18 Letters, Langley Advance] by declaring that most users of the park have never been to a sanctioned race, while suggesting that people walking in the park have to “walk around horse droppings and Bud bottles in the bush.”

I used to attend stock car races regularly when I was young, and I now walk the park trails in Campbell Valley on a regular basis. I don’t attend car races anymore because the car no longer holds the same mystique for me as it did when we used to socialize with our cars at A&W Drive-ins (when to the they really were drive-ins) and it was cool to have a hot car with Thrush mufflers that announced in a loud voice the power of the gasoline plant under the hood. And I have walked the trails in Campbell Valley literally hundreds of times for hundreds of kilometres, and I have yet to find a bottle of any kind, much less an empty Bud bottle, on a trail in that park. There is no logical, justifiable argument for bringing the curse of the noisy, party atmosphere of a car race event to the serenity of a park setting. Metro Vancouver shouldn’t even think about allowing this proposal to get past the application phase. While a race is being held, no one else is able to use the park for the use it was intended for, and that’s not what mixed use is about. They are completely incompatible uses. Marshall Neuman, Langley

True Liberals thankfully scarce

Dear Editor, Might I point out to the letter-writer who professes to be a “life-long” Liberal [Wave that Liberal flag, April 23 Letters, Langley Advance] that the current

Independent change wanted

Dear Editor, Unlike Lucille [Wave that Liberal flag, April 23 Letters, Langley Advance], this time I will be voting for a candidate that does not show a party flag in his advertising. Kevin Mitchell is running against the major parties in Langley/ Aldergrove, and will not be showing any logos, because he works for his voters, not a party line. This year it’s time to vote for an independent candidate – for a change. J. Beauman, Langley

Right pill harder to swallow

Dear Editor, I just had to answer that “bitter pill” letter [Pill on left hard to swallow, April 23 Letters, Langley Advance]. What has been hard for me to swallow, for most of my adult life, is the “right wing” pill. Look at the horrendous bunch we have now. My case rests! The “right” is never right. The right is all about keeping their ultra wealthy friends and supporters rich, keeping the multi-million-dollar corporations rich, and concentrating all the power in the hands of a very few. The NDP will be the next government, and they will do just fine. I look greatly forward to bidding a hearty good bye and good riddance to Christy and her crew. Jack McEwen, Langley

Dog’s sad story unleashed

Dear Editor, It was a sad story [Driver hit, killed, and ignored dog, April 25 Letters, Langley Advance], and there is a special corner of Hell awaiting the driver, but this is a prime example of why “dogs shall be on a leash when not in a fenced in enclosure.” Brian Johnson, Willoughby

Credit became sullied by Mr. [former Premier Bill] Vander Zalm. To associate Christy Clark and her government with the word liberal truly defines an oxymoron.

Calamity

News relative Dear Editor, I wonder how many readers noticed the difference paid to three simultaneous, calamitous events. The first was the unfortunate loss of life during the Boston Marathon. It completely dominated the news. Getting relatively scant mention was the dreadful earthquake in Western China where an estimated 11,500 casualties were reported, as well as the deaths of over 200 persons. Reported briefly was a similar number of casualties in Damascus, Syria. It goes to show, I believe, that our priorities in news events recede with distance from us, combined with the affinity we have in a common heritage.

The ManureLink program is providing fertile ground for local green gardeners. by Matthew Claxton mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

Just because it’s a load of manure doesn’t mean someone doesn’t want it. The Langley Environmental Partners Society (LEPS) is using a new grant from ARDCorp’s Agriculture Environment Initiative to formalize its program helping link community gardeners with local horse owners. Dubbed the Black Gold project, it is aimed at bridging the divide between urban and rural Langley and helping people grow their own food. The program is simple, explains Stephanie Captein of LEPS. Since 2006, LEPS has been working with horse owners to spread knowledge of how to compost their own manure on site. Much of that manure went back onto the horse owners’ pastures, but for those with more than they needed, a manure exchange was created. The ManureLink website matches up individual growers with manure providers. LEPS has also used the program to link to the community gardens around

Langley, several of which it helps run. Community gardens are subdivided plots of land, where those who dwell in basement suites, condos, or rented apartments can have a place to grow their own vegetables. Most community gardeners don’t have any space to create their own compost in significant quantities. Through ManureLink, the Murrayville Community Garden has picked up 10 yards of composted horse manure, Walnut Grove Community Garden got five, and the Maples Discovery Garden Co-op has also acquired some. One who may benefit from the natural fertilizer this year is Gillian Schellenberg, who was out for her second day as a community gardener in late April. Schellenberg said she was excited to be working on her plot of land. She has no background in gardening, and lives in a rented suite, so has no land of her own. Captein said that, while community gardens are the primary beneficiary now of the new grant, commercial growers have reached out through ManureLink as well. The Lulu Island Winery in Richmond was searching for chicken manure online recently. ManureLink can be found at www.manuremaiden.com.

Sex workers benefit

There are a few corporate happenings with charity ties coming up in this next week, of which readers should aware. FIrst up, a mother-and-daughters team is taking their online business [www.scrublovers.com] live in Langley this weekend. Sharon Milbradt, a Kamloops nurse, always felt “there was a lack of options for those in the medical professions to look and feel good while wearing the necessary uniforms.” Four years ago, she and her daughter Brandi-Ann – a clothing designer – started Scrublovers. Now that online business, with Milbradt’s youngest daughter JamiLee at the helm, is opening a store in Walnut Grove (8747 204th St.) on Friday. A portion of this weekend’s sales will go to help WISH, a Vancouver organization helping female sex workers.

COBS steps up for bigs

Saturday and Sunday COBS Bread is ramping up its annual fund and awareness raising campaign for the local Big Brothers Big Sisters agency. The bakery is donating 50 cents from every scone sold, while also hosting – with bigs and littles from the Langley agency – for a variety of in-store fun. In the fourth year of this partnership, COBS hopes to raise $60,000 for BBBS. “It’s very difficult to overstate the importance of these types of relationships,” said local executive director Mary Reeves. “Not only does COBS help us with general community awareness, they also truly are an integral part of our funding and we simply could not bring our programs to the community without the support of organizations like COBS.”

Supremacy is within reach

Thirteen competitors will vie for $12,000 worth of cash, prizes, and scholarships in Saturday’s contest at Christian Life Assembly. by Roxanne Hooper rhooper@langleyadvance.com

“I think it’s going to be a real tough call. I’m just glad I’m not going to be judging” the finals of Langley Has Talent, said event founder and organizer Peter Luongo. “We have some excellent vocal artists, three topnotch dancers, and some really entertaining bands. The judges are going to have a real tough time of it. Like I said, I’m glad it’s not me making that call,” Luongo added, talking about the talent competition finale happening Saturday night. Instead, the ultimate decision will be left to returning judge Steve Darling of Global TV BC, Juno nominated songwriter and producer Mitch Merrett of Langley, and Fort Langley’s Tara Teng who holds the crown as Miss World Canada 2012. “Thankfully, the Canucks are not playing on Saturday night,” Luongo said, noting he’s expecting a full house for this year’s finale – in part because of overwhelming support from contestants’ family and friends, but moreover due to a keen interest by members of the community at large to experience the “high calibre” of skill and ability apparent in all the competitors. “The talent has never been better. We’ve never had talent at this level,” Luongo said, believing each of the Peter Luongo Talent show founder finalists could rise to supremacy on Saturday. “Each of them earned their spot on that stage,” he added, faking astonishment, as a ukulele guru himself, that there’s not one uke player in the bunch. Contenders in the finals will be singers Ahnika Barber, Amy Bakker, Kaitlyn Santa Juana, Kari Culiat, Miranda Guimond, and Zoe Welliver; as well as singer/guitarists Carla Marten, and Kage Hart; dancers Dante Arias and Samantha Gilburg; a dance group called the Artistic Edge Company; and a band named Special Tease. The 13th contender, the fan’s choice, is Jordan Rodriguez. In addition to each of the competitors performing, last year’s top two acts – winning 19-year-old dancer Lauren Tokiwa and the second-place singer Jillian Mandy Hart, will return to Langley Has Talent’s stage. Sponsored by all four Rotary Clubs in Langley, this third annual competition is designed to raise money for and awareness around the need for a theatre in Langley to showcase all the talent in town. The competition culminates this Saturday at the Christian Life Assembly, when all 13 of these acts will vie for $12,000 worth of prizes, including the firstplace take of $2,500 cash plus extras. Tickets are $20 and available online at www.langleyhastalent.ca. The finals run 7-9:30 p.m.

man many in this community and around the globe have come to know as Mr. Ukulele is retiring, both from the teaching profession and his long-standing role as director of the Langley Ukulele Ensemble. And in the wings, his 23-year-old son Paul is preparing to step up to resume his father’s role as “ring leader” of the ensemble. “Those are big shoes are way too big to fill – proverbially speaking,” Paul said, looking down at his much shorter father. “And I’m not going to try… I am my own person,” intent on bringing his own visions and leadership style to the plate. Peter Luongo has taught and been principal at a number of schools Langley through his 34-year career as an educator, the last post as principal at Gordon Greenwood Elementary.

Put art on the tour map

he fifth Annual Langley Art Studio Tour is Sept. 21, 22, 28 and 29, and organizers are looking for artists okay with having members of the public look over their shoulders while they work. Visitors will follow a printed guide map to art studios and other related stops of interest all over the community. It’s a great way to showcase your art, be it paintings, pottery, sculpture, jewellery, glass, fabric or other media – as long is it’s your own original work. The event is well advertised and visitors come from far and wide. Don’t have a studio? Apply anyway. Many artists are willing to share their studio space, plus there are several “stops of interest” where artists can display their work. Applications from artists who live outside Langley are encouraged and will be accepted as space permits. The fee is $100 per studio (solo artist) or $50 per artist (sharing space). Apply by June 15. For information and registration forms visit

www.langleyartstudiotour. ca or email langleystudiotour@gmail.com.

A no go

The Critter Care Wildlife Society art fundraiser slated for May 8 has been cancelled due to lower than needed ticket sales. The stunning bear photography of guest speaker John Gordon was going to be shown. Critter Care takes in wildlife from around the province but receives almost no government help except a break on the land from Metro Vancouver. All costs must be covered through fundraising. Learn more at www.crittercarewildlife. org.

Kells Art Club Spring Show and Sale is Sunday at the Fort Langley Community Hall. Check out the oils, acrylics, watercolours and pastels from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. “Our show will also be just in time for Mother’s Day, and there will be many lovely paintings for sale for this special occasion,” said club member Reet Herder. Artists will be in attendance to talk with and answer any questions. The club’s monthly meetings are held every third Monday of the month, starting at 1 p.m. at the Masonic Hall, 20701 Fraser Hwy. The next meeting is on May 20.

Questions & Answers

Thursday, May 2, 2013

PORT KELLS

Orchids and moss both thrive in shade Dear Anne,

“The flowers on our phalenopsis orchid are mostly gone, and we are left with five flowers and very long stems and roots. Should it be re-potted and cut back with new soil? Can it be taken out to a sheltered patio with partial sun and much light?”

David Chia, via email

halenopsis normally has surface roots, but if there are many and they’re wandering down the side of the pot, it should be re-potted. Otherwise, re-pot every two years, because the old bark begins rotting. The main element in the potting mix is orchid bark. You can buy that in garden centres. A little sphagnum moss is sometimes added to the bark, but isn’t really necessary. Orchid bark is used because phalenopsis orchids need exceptionally good drainage, but they also need daily watering and misting, as their roots are used to humid conditions in their native tropical forests where they grow on trees. Overwatering kills orchids, so be discreet but frequent in watering. The flower stems should be cut down to the base once the flowers have faded. A position outside on your balcony could go wrong.

Langley choreography

Silver for synchro squad Chaplain steers pucksters Trinity Western University’s new men’s hockey coach has worked all around the globe.

A Langley coach and choreographer helped B.C. synchronized swimmers place strongly in Quebec. A winning routine choreographed by Langley’s Susan Kemper took the BC Aquasonics Senior National Stream Team to silver in Quebec. The BC Aquasonics, coached by Kemper, posted a score of 73.817 with their Mayan Calendar routine at the Senior FINA Team Free event last weekend at the Canadian Open Synchronized Swimming Championships. Kemper has an international reputation for her innovative routines and bringing the best out in her athletes. “Every member of the team brought their best to the pool tonight,” said Kemper of the eight-member team. “They gelled as a team at the right time. We believed that we were medal contenders, and we accomplished what we set out to do. It is a proud day for the BC Aquasonics.” The Aquasonics were the only team from B.C. to place in any event at the competition. They entered five events at the Canadian Open, bringing home awards in four of them. Erin Williams of Cloverdale placed fifth in the Senior FINA Solo (Technical) and sixth in the Senior FINA Solo (Free) events. Duet pair Natasha Heine of Surrey and Mackenzy Higgins of White Rock placed fifth in the Senior FINA Duet (Free) event. Awards are given to the top six teams in each event. The Aquasonics Combo Team placed seventh in the Canadian Open Combo event. The Senior BC Aquasonics team will compete next at the US Open Synchronized Swimming Championships, July 9-13, in Texas. The BC Aquasonics is B.C.’s oldest, largest, and most successful syn-

Coach and scholar …continued from page A23

Over the past 19 years, Kropf has worked at hockey camps across Canada, USA, Russia, Kazakhstan, and the Czech Republic for HMI and AIA. He has also been the head coach for several men’s elite teams, largely including CIS and NCAA players, that have travelled on overseas ministry trips to Russia, Kazakhstan, the Czech Republic, and Slovakia. Kropf has a Certificate of Biblical Studies, earned from International Bible College in 1998, and has also taken courses at Briercrest College in the sports ministry program. He has also authored a book, Home Away From Home, which tells the stories of billet families in the junior hockey world. He and his wife Bridget have three sons, Jalen, 19, Joshua, 16, and Jacob, 12. “Today marks a big day for TWU men’s hockey,” TWU athletics director Murrray Hall said. “Barret is a man who will create a serious buzz around our hockey team, on our campus and amongst the broader hockey community. Our net worth just went way up. He’s a man of great character and high competence, and has called coaching at TWU his dream job. I am thrilled that Barret will be joining us as, through our early discussion, it’s evident he’s entirely focused on developing complete champions, both on and off the ice.” Kropf replaces former head coach Dwayne Lowdermilk, who led the Spartans for the past three years.

Rivermen forward accepts captain honour

The forward from Minnesota said it’s an honour to captain Langley’s junior A team in what will be his second season in the BCHL.

The Langley Rivermen Junior A Hockey Club is pleased to announce that Mitch McLain has been named the fourth captain in franchise history. McLain enjoyed his first season in a Rivermen uniform in 2012-2013 and was an assistant captain by years’ end. “It is an honour to come back and lead this team,” McLain said, labelling it “a great group of guys coming back for another season,” and adding, “It means a lot that coach Bobby, Kurt, and the organization feel that I would be a good leader for them.” The Minnesota native had a fantastic rookie season racking up 14 goals, 18 assists for 32 points, but he will be the first to tell you that the only stat he is concerned about is wins and losses. “My first season with the Rivermen was a very enjoyable one for me,” he said. “From day one, everyone in the organization has been great, from the owner-

Looking at his play down the

stretch and through most of the year he started to merge as a leader. He has all the attributes that we are looking for in a captain and at the end of the day it was a decision that made itself.” McLain has many qualities that every coach looks for in a player and Henderson was quick to point out a few that stand out.

“His work ethic is one thing that sets him apart of the pack. He brings a great effort to everything he does whether it is a practice or a game,” Henderson said. “Mitch is an upbeat guy and knows when to keep the mood light and he knows when to focus and bear down. He is just one of those guys that you can’t help but smile when he is at the rink.” As for next season’s expectations for the new captain, Henderson does not want McLain changing a thing. “We expect him to pick up right where he left off. I do not think it is fair to put a number on how many points we hope him to get, we just want him to show up and compete like his does every night and his points will come.” As for McLain, he knows about the responsibilities of wearing the “C,” and already knows what kind of captain he wants to be. “I am a friend. Sometimes you have to delegate and speak up to get the boys going, but honestly I am a friend and I just want the guys to be comfortable around me,” McLain said. “As a captain, though, my job is to keep everybody on the same page and have the same goal in mind and that is winning a championship.”

Phantom faced Canada’s best at Esso Cup tourney

Competition was tough for the host team at the national female midget hockey championship in Burnaby. While the host Fraser Valley Phantom lost four of five games at the Esso Cup, Canada’s national female midget hockey championship, it wasn’t for a lack of effort. Playing the top female midget AAA teams from across the country, the Phantom, including Langley skater Chelsea Wilson, capped its tournament Thursday with a 1-0 loss to Ontario’s North Bay Ice Boltz in Burnaby.

Fraser Valley captain Hailey Smyl said the Phantom battled to the end: “I think we played our hearts out… there are no regrets.” Ice Boltz goaltender Sabrina Picard made 20 saves to earn the shutout. The Phantom opened the tournament April 21 with a 4-2 loss to the Edmonton Thunder in the battle for the Pacific Region title. Wilson scored twice, including a highlight-reel effort in the second period. That loss was followed by back-to-back 5-1 setbacks to the LHFDQ Nord on April 22 and Regina Rebels on April 23. The Phantom’s lone win came on April 24, a 3-1 victory over Halifax Metro Boston Pizza.

Quebec’s representatives, the LHFDQ Nord, rallied from a two-goal deficit in the third period to beat the North Bay Ice Boltz 5-2, and hoist the 2013 Esso Cup as first-time national champs on Saturday.

About the Phantom

Fraser Valley finished atop the B.C. Hockey Female Midget AAA League standings with a 21-5-2 record and went on to take top spot at the provincial playoff championships. In the best-of-three B.C. title series, the Phantom swept the Thompson Okanagan Rockets in two straight games. – with files from Esso Cup reporters Nicole Clark and Lucas Scott

Being first tends to be a good thing, and the first Otter Co-op country car show was certainly good. Put on by the Central Fraser Valley Chapter of the Vintage Car Club of Canada and the co-op, the show saw 127 collector cars fill the store’s parking lot April 27 and 28. “They [the car club] approached us about it,” noted Merilee McAuley, executive assistant to Otter Co-op’s general manager, about how the event came to life. “We figured with our clients if would be a good fit.” A 1967 Chevelle Malibu brought a father and son team out to join in the show on Sunday. “My dad ordered it new from the factory, [in] 1967,” Stan Berger said of the light yellow beauty. He referred to his son Todd Berger as “his chauffeur.” Cars that span generations in one family aren’t uncommon, it’s often a shared love-affair that brings families to both attend and participate in shows like this. A 1955 1st series Cheverolet pickup made it to the Co-op with Ron Coleman behind the wheel, but Coleman’s son Nate owns the truck. “Nate won first place at the Abbotsford car show for best North American classic truck.” Parked next to Coleman was a similarly coloured vehicle: Trent Steves’ 1937 Chevy. “It gets in your blood,” Steves said. “I just live over here and saw the flyer [about the show].”

In spring the thoughts of young people at D.W. Poppy Secondary turn to… cars. That’s because lots of the students help out at the annual car show which raises money for various school programs and sports. Last year the amount raised was $20,000. So when May 5 rolls around, many students will join parent advisory council members, staff, and members of the local community for the 26th annual D.W. Poppy Car Show. Car show committee chair Marlene Yakabuski said the show has gone on for more than 25 years because of strong support. “One of my favourite sayings is ‘it takes a village to raise a child’,” she said. “We couldn’t do it without and through the support of some dedicated staff and parents within the school community along with the support of the Langley car community. A lot of the car guys come every year to support the show.” Entrants show up 8 a.m.

to 10 a.m. and pay $10. “Just pay at the gate on the way in and our parking volunteers will help you find a spot on the field,” explained Yakabuski. “Last year we had over 500 vehicles and hope to match or top that this year with another great day in the weather forecast.” Some 2,000-3,000 people will head to the show. Public admission is $3 per person and the day starts with a pancake breakfast cooked up by the Fort Langley Lions Club starting at 10 a.m. It takes more than 100 people to pull off this annual fundraiser. “After a winter of working on their cars or having them stored, the car guys are ready to get the cars out,” Yakabuski said. “We have typically been one of the first outdoor shows of the season and a nice day means everyone is itching to get their cars out for a ride and enjoy the day. We host the show in the schools back field which adds a casual friendly atmosphere.”
