fire chief Stephen Gamble, and Sherlock for their work. He also gave plaques to the operators of two abc Country Restaurants, a Ramada Inn in Surrey, Langley’s Best Western Inn on Glover Road, and a Days Inn on Logan Avenue. Also thanked was the Army & Navy in the Langley Mall. Those firms all sheltered, fed, or replaced items for the residents. Sherlock noted that the hotel stays and item replacement was funded by the province’s emergency program, but the companies went out of their way to help the displaced residents. Many other firms and non-profits in the community also provided help for the residents in the immediate aftermath of the fire. Sherlock said that of about 100 evacuees, 94 people were aided by emergency response programs of one sort or another. Half of the residents are now back in the building, said Lions Housing Society administrator Jeanette Dagenais. Most will return by June 5, while the residents of eight highly damaged units have been found permanent housing in other buildings or other areas.

A teenager was bludgeoned with baseball bats while walking through Langley City Sunday night, Langley RCMP say. Police were called just before 9 p.m. to the 5400 block of 208th Street, where there was a report of a group of young men fighting with bats, said Cpl. Holly Marks, spokesperson for the Langley RCMP. The caller said one of the men might need medical help. By the time officers arrived, the bat-wielding men were gone and an injured 17-yearold from Surrey, along with his friend, still remained. The injured teen was bleeding from the head, but was conscious and breathing. His friend said two unknown men had approached them from behind and attacked, hitting the victim several times. The men with bats had then run off. The Lower Mainland Police Dog Service was called and made it to the scene within minutes, said Marks. Armed with a description of the attackers, the police came up with a possible address for one of the suspects. The tracking dog also led them to that home, in the 5300 block of 207th Street. Inside, the 18-year-old suspect was found hiding in the attic, and was arrested just before 9:30 p.m. A baseball bat was seized as evidence. Investigators will ask for a warrant for the arrest of a second suspect, said Marks. The attack appears to have been a form of attempted revenge. A friend of the victim had been involved in a fight with the suspects the night before; police had been called out to that incident, but that victim had not wanted to involve the police. The suspect in Sunday’s incident has been released from custody on a promise to appear in court.

Inebriation

Man stuck in own door by Matthew Claxton mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

A young Surrey man needed help from Langley RCMP and City firefighters Monday night after he got stuck in the door of his own truck. The Langley RCMP were called out first before 10:30 p.m. when a homeowner in the 19600 block of 55A Avenue called to report a strange man in the driveway yelling for help. The 23-year-old man’s arm was stuck in the door jamb or window of his truck. When police arrived, he told them he had left his keys in the ignition, got out of the truck, and locked himself out, said Cpl. Holly Marks of the Langley RCMP. He got stuck trying to grab his keys. Police couldn’t get him loose, so the Langley City firefighters were called in. They managed to pop him free, uninjured. The Mounties determined he was impaired and unfit to drive. He was handed a 24 hour roadside suspension and his truck was impounded.

Tribunal hears complaint Art centre need studied A decision is expected soon on a human rights complaint against a Langley sports bar.

Five groups have come together to fund a study of a Langley arts centre.

by Susan Lazaruk

Special to the Langley Advance

The B.C. human rights tribunal should toss out three complaints of racial discrimination against the Langley Shark Club because the complainants didn’t show the bouncer denied them entry because they were Indo-Canadian, the Shark Club’s lawyer said Friday. Serge Rai and his friends, Manjinder Gill and his wife, Manjit Gill, all in their 40s, filed the three separate complaints after a bouncer refused to let them in to join a graduation party on Dec. 9, 2011. Tribunal chair Norman Trerise was left to sort through hours of confusing and conflicting evidence from the complainants, two bouncers and a manager, including what led to bouncer Andrew Schmah assaulting Rai. Rai and the Gills said in closing submissions Friday they felt singled out for exclusion because they’re brownskinned, after they were turned away when they arrived 15 minutes late. The three and others in their small group said they were told the club was sold out except to those with tickets. But the complainants said they could see a stream of white partygoers admitted without tickets. “That is the main issue here, that we are all Indo-Canadian,” said Manjit Gill, reading from a prepared submission. “And that is all the Shark Club saw and considered that night.” They felt “utter humiliation and feelings of degradation,” she said. Gill said the club portrayed them in an “absolutely distorted” way, saying they are polite professionals who don’t make death threats, utter profanities or act belligerently, as the bouncers testified. They said Schmah threw Rai to the ground after Rai took a picture of him but they denied threatening to post his picture labelled as a racist on Facebook, as Schmah testified. The trio also denied Schmah and two

Manjit Gill, left, and Serge Rai say there were turned away from the Langley Shark Club because they’re Indo-Canadian. other employees’ testimonies that the reason some in the group were denied entry because they lacked ID or that Rai threatened to shoot Schmah with a gun. “One cannot accept the two entirely different versions of the events,” said Manjit Gill. “One of us is telling the truth and the other is not.” Rai told Trerise he has to “decide whether our race, colour and/or ancestry were factors in the respondent’s decision to not allow us into the club,” contrary to B.C.’s human rights laws. Human rights lawyer Paul McLean, hired by the Shark Club, said there was no proof the group was denied because of the colour of their skin. He noted other Indo-Canadians had been admitted earlier that night, that 20 per cent of the clientele is Indo-Canadian and the club has no history of racial discrimination. He ridiculed the idea of a “magical cap” to the number of Indo-Canadians allowed in the club at any one time, that “we have enough Indo-Canadians in the club and we have to stop admitting them because the mix is off.” He said it was up to the tribunal chair to determine who was telling the truth about what happened that night and come to a conclusion about why the group was not allowed in. He said it’s up to the complainants to show Schmah was racially motivated and that on a “balance of probabilities” based on the evidence presented, they didn’t. Trerise said he needed time for his decision.

“I can leave feeling very confident that we’ve laid a great foundation,” he said, calling it a team effort with council and city staff. He also said he plans to be involved when the time comes for voters to choose the next mayor. “I will be very engaged in the process going forward,” Fassbender said. “I’m still a tax payer in the City,” he added. So far, none of the sitting City councillors nor any outsider has announced plans to run

for the mayor’s chair. Around B.C., four mayors, including Fassbender, and eight councillors were elected as Liberals, and a number of byelections are anticipated as some of those politicians step down. However, a few have decided to do both jobs, either for the remainder of their terms, or at least stay on until January. A resignation then would allow councils to avoid having a new byelection before November 2014.

Matthew Claxton/Langley Advance

Peter Fassbender will soon relinquish his Langley City mayoral seat.

Attention Lower Mainland Home Owners: 23 of you are about to make an important ﬁnancial decision...

“Frustrated Contractor ‘Giving Away’ $5136 Furnaces for $1181 with purchase of Off-Season Central Air ...”**

NO MONEY DOWN, NO PAYMENTS AND INTEREST FREE TIL 2014* (This is the Hottest AND Coolest Deal of the Century” ... especially if your furnace is over 8 years old)

Dear Friend I’m about to make you a deal that’s hard to refuse if you’ve got an “older” (and probably less than optimally efﬁcient) furnace. I’ll replace your old furnace AND heat pump as a “package deal” for at least $3136.00 less than you would pay any other time of the year. Sound too good to be true? It’s not and here’s why. I’m making you what sounds like an unbelievable offer because it actually makes good sense for my business. And you come out a winner, as well! You see, I know from experience that in my slowest months I actually end up losing money ... then I have to spend the rest of the year trying to make up for it. Right now, I have no reason to believe 2013 will be any different. That’s why I’ve decided to give up trying to make a proﬁt during these months and minimize my losses ... so I can come out ahead the rest of the year. So here’s how I can make the incredible offer at the top of this letter. Every year the biggie furnace manufacturers guesstimate how many furnaces to produce. Since there’s no way of knowing what the weather will be like and other factors that affect sales, these guys always have leftover inventory they have to hold onto until the next heating season. I saw a great business opportunity in this and went to one of these biggie companies (they won’t allow me to use their name in this letter) and contracted for the purchase of these furnaces that were going to just be sitting around. Plus, I bought 23 heat pumps all in the 3 most popular sizes used in Lower Mainland homes. Because of the number I bought and the time of year I purchased them, I got an unbelievable deal ... rock-bottom prices. Don’t get me wrong - these are brandnew, top quality, 2013 models. Not “seconds.” Not “blems.” Not builder-grade. These are premium furnaces and heat pumps fresh from a name-brand factory with a full factory warranty. How to Get Your Name Brand Furnace for Virtually Nothing By putting together this furnace-plusheat pump package (I call it the “Hottest AND Coolest Deal of the Century”), going through some heavy negotiations with the

Scott Campbell

Local Business Owner

manufacturer, and then committing to buying 23 systems outright, I got BOTH the furnace AND the heat pump at a price that would have made Sam Walton proud. This means when you buy one of these 23 new, premiumquality heat pumps I will “give” you the furnace and ask you to pay only the $1181 in labor it costs to install your furnace. Pick up your phone right now Simply call me at 946-1000 at anytime so I can come out and measure your home (to see if I’ve got the proper size unit). Remember ... I’ve got only 23 matched systems in 3 sizes so you’ll want to let me know VERY SOON that you’re interested. When these 23 systems are gone, they’re gone, and this offer is null and void. Call me right now so we can get the ball rolling! As part of the deal, I’ll show you how much the heat pump costs ... how much the furnace WOULD have cost ... and your savings when you buy your new heat pump and furnace as part of this special offer. The price I show you will include all installation materials and labor. There’s no ﬁne print, nothing left out. Earlier I said that making you this amazing offer is also good business for me The way I look at it, by letting YOU win big now, I’ll win at the end of the year. And I won’t have to “make up” for the lost sales during my slowest months. I ﬁgure if I make you an absolutely irresistible offer .. if your furnace is pushing 8 years or more ... and if I barely mark up the price I paid, I’ll accomplish 2 major objectives that will allow me to reduce my losses the rest of the year. I’ll be able to ... • Pay my overhead (rent, utilities, insurance and taxes) during the slow period • Keep my service & installation technicians busy enough to pay them to work instead of sit at home. As you can see, when you take me up on my “Hottest AND Coolest Deal of the Century,” EVERYONE IS A WINNER! And by the way, there’s no obligation when you have me come out to measure your house and explain the installation If you decide you don’t want to take advantage of this incredible deal (although I can’t imagine why you wouldn’t want to save this kind of money), it’s no problem. You’re not obligated in any way. In fact, just for taking time to read this letter and having me out to survey your house ... I’ll give you a

Very Special Free Gift Coupon ($50 value). Why? Even if we don’t do business together now, I want you to remember us in the future. If you’re thinking a new furnace (& heat pump) isn’t in your budget - don’t worry! You don’t have to pay me right now Because I’ve tried to think of every reason possible why you WOULDN’T take me up on this spectacular offer, I’ve even made arrangements for a super bank rate financing plan. And I’m not “marking up” the interest rate like so many other companies do. While I can’t promise you this, it’s possible that with this financing plan your monthly investments in a new system could be more than paid for by the savings you see on your monthly utility bills. My Disappointment-Proof Guarantee Talking about lower utility bills, I’m so sure you’ll see at least a 25% cut in your heating and cooling bills (in reality, it may be more like 35%+), if you don’t I’ll pay you twice the difference for 2 years. Not only are you getting a new, firstquality furnace virtually free, plus a firstquality heat pump at a great price, I guarantee you’ll lower your heating and cooling bills by at least 25% or I’ll pay you double your savings for 2 years. (This alone should convince you that these systems are some of the very best quality and most efficient available). But you’ve got to act fast ... call me at 946-1000 right now! This offer ends May 15th no matter what Don’t wait to call me. Here’s why. I have only 8 of each of the 3 sizes. When all of the air conditioners are sold and all the furnaces “given away” in a certain size, the “Hottest AND Coolest Deal of the Century” is over. And if I still have any of the 23 systems left on May 31st, this offer still ends. The reason is that my business only slows down for a short time. Since these furnaces cost me so little, if I’ve got any left, I’ll sell them next winter at last year’s prices and still come out ahead. So call me right now at 946-1000 Thanking you in advance, Scott Campbell Owner P.S. Remember, there’s no obligation and even if you change your mind once I measure your house and give you the estimate - you still get that Free Gift Coupon worth $50.

Harper outrage lacks substance

Once upon a time, Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s statements of outrage against government waste and cronyism sounded more convincing. That time was when he and the Conservatives were in opposition. When the federal Liberals were caught with their hand in the cookie jar of the Quebec sponsorship program, Harper and his Reform/Alliance/Conservative allies were right to raise a great noise of outrage. But saying “I’m not happy,” and “I’m very upset” when it’s your own senators, your own (now resigned) chief of staff is not enough. Email with We brought up the sponsorship scandal, and so did Harper when he spoke to reporters for the first time about how the senators he appointed – Mike Duffy in particular – seem to have an interesting understanding of how much money they are owed by taxpayers. Harper should stop talking about what the Liberals did a decade ago. Yes, it was bad. Canadians know that. It’s why they’re now only the third largest party in the House of Commons. The Conservatives, on the other hand, have been in power since 2006. They have held a majority government since 2011. But as with every government that hangs on to power in Ottawa for more than a year or two, Harper now has his own list of scandals, including Bev Oda’s taste for expensive orange juice and limo rides, or Peter MacKay’s use of a search and rescue helicopter to go fishing. Harper cannot pretend to be pure and above it all. Obviously, a thorough investigation of the senators and of former chief of staff Nigel Wright is needed. But all of these people were appointed by Harper. We need not question Harper’s personal integrity to question his judgement. Why are those he handpicked to help lead Canada embroiled in scandal? We deserve a more complete answer than platitudes and blaming the last government. – M.C.

Global warming

Dear Editor, David J. Standcumbe belittles those who believe that global warming is a fact [Cold record makes no sense, May 16 Letters, Langley Advance]. He points out that, because Manitoba had its coldest winter in more than 100 years, the scientists who insist global warming is with us now are incorrect. I suggest we initiate the “David J. S. Fund” to send David on a tour of places on earth that point to global warming as factual. The Arctic will be a good start: why is all that ice melting, David? Perhaps it is all the hot air from scientists who claim all our weather is undergoing upheavals, as we are able to grow lemons on the Gulf Islands and the salmon head north for colder climbs. Or perhaps it is the unprecedented storms roaring across the USA and the European weather changes, due to the Gulf Stream fluctuations. I’ll be happy to donate a dollar towards David’s tour, and I hope he enjoys himself. Mike Harvey, Langley

It’s all talk about the latest daily polls of who’s up, who’s down, who has the momentum that day, and how all the reporters become addicted to the dazzling process. And how spending all this time covering the horse race takes time away from covering the issues. If the polls are meaningless, parties will have to convince us their beliefs about the issues fit our beliefs. I hope the watchdog media doesn’t think the Liberals have a new mandate to govern the same crisis/scandal-a-month way that they were. Roland Seguin, Langley

Brett’s passion for a sport has inspired millions of Canadian kids to put down their video games to play outside. Before he ever played one game for the Blue Jays, he had done more for his country and for Langley than Tim or I. He is one of few successful athletes in a predominately American/South American sport. Imagine that, after working 37,440 hours, someone said it was they who supplied you with your $300,000 house and $32,000 truck. I work 60 hours per week. If someone was scrutinizing my work constantly and saying I wasn’t good enough, it would get to me – especially when I was 23 and it was coming from someone who didn’t work as hard as I did. I don’t know Brett very well, but I know where he came from: hard work, ironclad dedication, and two amazing parents.

Dear Editor, I have to call a foul ball on Tim Opper [Fans put athletes in their mansions, May 14 Letters, Langley Advance]. I was quite upset when I read his letter about Brett Lawrie and his mansion provided by the fans. Then, once I read it again, I couldn’t help but feel sad for him. Its obvious he doesn’t and probably never did play sports as a kid, calling baseball a “silly game.” I doubt he ever felt the camaraderie of marching on to a field with a group of guys behind each other, ready to do battle with another team. I was never a baseball fan until I met the Lawries. I thought it was ridiculous, the amount they get paid compared to other major sports, because I thought it’s not that hard of a sport. At eight years old, Brett’s passion for the sport had him training six days a week, right up till present day. Baseball players play 30 games per month. Brett shows up at the field at noon for a 7 p.m. game. Per game, baseball players are probably paid less than most professional athletes.

It seems it’s time to bring you up to speed on a few openings and an annual general meeting that might be worth adding to your calendar. Let’s start with a visit to farm country. There’s some exciting news coming out of Krause Berry Farms. Alf and Sandee Krause and clan are the family that morphed a strawberry crop into an elaborate farmgate operation and agri-tourism destination on 248th Street. Well, these same folks are preparing to officially expand their operation further. But that new addition might not be what most would expect to find at a berry farm, at least not at first glance. This Saturday the couple is expecting more than 1,000 farm and Facebook friends to attend a private party to mark the opening of their new estate winery. Sandee tells me the win-

ery has been a long time in the making. It’s more than just another way of adding value to their berry crops. The winery is a dream come true for the couple. A limited number of farm visitors were given a sneak peek at the new winery before the operation closed for the season around Christmas. The general public is going to be invited to attend a grand opening of the new facilities Sunday, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. If you can’t make it out this weekend, don’t worry. We’re just coming up on the beginning of the berry season. Starting next week, the farm is going to be open Wednesdays through Sundays, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. And depending on how the strawberry crops progress (so far, so good) Sandee expects to open the operation seven days a week starting in mid to late June.

Nine plus decades

While I’m speaking of happenings out in east Langley, did you know that Otter Co-op is celebrating 91 years of oper-

ation next week? The Otter District Farmer’s Institute was incorporated in 1922, with 25 members. It came to be with the intention of promoting agriculture and agricultural knowledge, working for legislation to improve farm conditions, and buying supplies at cost for its members. One of the original bylaws said the aim of the institute was to improve conditions of rural life so that settlement may be permanent and prosperous. I have to appreciate the fact that that bylaw – and many others remained in effect until 1979, when the institute officially became a co-op. Well, members – and there’s a lot more than the original 25 now signed up – are invited to the annual meeting May 29 at D.W. Poppy Secondary at 7 p.m.

Family returns to home sweet (renovated) home The hard work of more than 200 volunteers and generosity of 125 sponsors have given a single mom and her two sons a gift that will change their lives. by Troy Landreville

“I gave you my house and you’ve given me a mansion!” exclaimed single mom Cathy Dunn, as she toured through her newly rebuilt Aldergrove home on Monday. Dunn and her sons Ian, 15, and Jamie, eight, are the 2013 recipients of the Acts of Kindness Extreme Home Repair, a project coordinated by the Aldergrove Seventh-day Adventist Church. The Dunn family moved out of the home for 15 days, allowing more than 200 volunteers to do their work on a 30-year-old, three-bedroom rancher that had suffered significant water damage and was in need of a new roof. Dunn feared she would have to sell the house because she couldn’t afford all of the repairs that were needed. “We wouldn’t have gotten much for it,” she told the hundreds of volunteers and supporters (including a few EHR past recipients) who gathered for the reveal. “Home ownership is very important. It gives us stability, and I really felt it was important to keep the house. We would

Rich Coleman and Langley Township deputy mayor Michelle Sparrow, a ribbon cutting, and a tour of the home. This was one of the AOK team’s most ambitious undertakings yet. Project coordinator Lorne Brownmiller, who

has been part of the Extreme Home Repair since its inception, said an “extensive” amount of work was done on the house. “This one was among the largest,” Brownmiller said. “It’s been probably the easiest one for me.”

He said that on Friday afternoon, May 3, the house was ripped “right back to studs.” Much of the siding was removed. The original siding had suffered rot and mold, mostly caused from rain over the years.

Salon day pampers AOK mom Even before her rebuilt home was unveiled, Cathy Dunn was spoiled. by Matthew Claxton

mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

“I have been thoroughly pampered today,” said Cathy Dunn, the recipient of this year’s AOK Extreme Home Repair project. The Friday before the big reveal, Dunn was whisked off to the Mark Anthony Academy of Cosmetology in Langley City to receive the royal treatment. “We’re hoping she likes it,” said Launie Morgan, who runs the beauty school. The spa day was organized and paid for by local realtor Diane Sparks-Cassidy. This is the third year she’s offered a day of pampering for the mother involved in the Extreme Home Repair project. “I thought, the house gets a makeover, why doesn’t the wife get a makeover?”

said Sparks-Cassidy, who works for Prudential Power Play Realty. She started her project when she donated a gift certificate. It had been given to her by her late husband, and she couldn’t bear to use it herself, but wanted someone to see the benefit. After that donation, she has paid for the cost entirely out of her own pocket, and has been happy to do it. The students at the school ran Dunn through a variety of treatments, including a manicure, a pedicure, a facial, and other pampering. They then sent her off with a gift basket full of beauty supplies valued at more than $100. After the event, Dunn was taken to a hotel in Vancouver for the final weekend before the reveal of her newly remodeled home. She admitted to being glad she was heading out of town – it was getting hard not to check out the progress, she said.

Painter takes multi-layered approach to art Rubbing and layering methods with oils give transition artist a chance to share her vision of peace. by Roxanne Hooper rhooper@langleyadvance.com

ne form of her art has been displayed in prestigious venues from Windsor Castle, Hatfield House, Scone Palace, and Sherborne Castle to dozens of well-recognized shops and galleries throughout England, Ireland, Scotland, and Wales. She sold her handcrafted jewelry on multiple continents, including North America, for the better part of a decade. But Heidi Hughes gave that all up about 10 years back, switching her art of choice from the type that hangs on one’s body to the kind that hangs on one’s walls. And this Friday, the Walnut Grove painter and pastor is hosting an artist’s reception as part of her first solo painting exhibition on display in Fort Langley. Having grown up in what she described as a “highly creative” home in Winnipeg, Heidi credited her father as one of her strongest influences. He owned a painting and interior decorating company that he built from the ground up. Bitten by the same entrepreneurial bug that snared her father, and following her keen interest in art, she started a jewelry business in 1990 that she based out of her home in Edinburgh, Scotland but that saw her selling around the globe. She’s since moved to B.C. and subsequently transitioned to painting, but still holds fast to her passion for art as a medium to share her message of peace. “I started painting while I still ran my jewelry company. Initially, I began painting with acrylic paint, with a technique of putting on and rubbing off many layers of paint, creating a transparent feel in the finished result,” Heidi explained.

Then, three years ago she swapped out acrylics for oils. “I much prefer oil… Painting with oil enables me to reach my goal of having rich layers of transparency. I love it, and am so happy I have changed to this medium and format,” she elaborated. While this is Heidi’s first solo show as a painter, she has participated in three group shows. In her early works, she did a series on passageways, doorways, paths, and arches. This new series, however, is called Land and Sea, which she has been working on for almost two years. “Through the medium of oil on canvas, the method of multiple washes and layers of paint alongside rubbing-off techniques, and with much chiaroscuro [strong contrasts between light and dark[, my passion is to paint subjects that are both intense and beautiful,” she said. “I love the intensity in creation; it can teach us so much, as no Heidi Hughes started her artistic life as a jewelry maker human is exempt from the intensity of life – yet some of but has now moved into another medium, picking up the the most intense experiences paintbrush.

tive that, although life can be intense at times, peace is always available to those who know how to find it.” In addition to her art, 50-year-old Hughes is the mother of three adult children, and grandmother twice over. She is also a pastor who started her own church six years ago with her husband Paul. Heidi, armed with a bachelors in religious studies, and her husband holding a PhD in religious studies and having taught at Trinity Western University for a dozen years, decided to start The River Fellowship from their home. In the past half dozen years, the congregation has grown to a following of about 200 who attend services Sunday evening at Walnut Grove Lutheran Church. “We believe art is an expression of the image of God, which is in everyone, and celebrate his presence with art and music…” Heidi said. Her art show is on exhibit for the month of May in a non-traditional space. It’s being displayed at the Re/Max office in the centre of the Fort Langley village. Re/Max Little Oak Realty calls it their “upstart artist program” where they give emerging artists space to display their works and host an art show opening reception at no charge. “It’s a passion of ours to give back to the community we live and work in,” said realtor Trisha Bongers. “This is just one of the ways we can take advantage of our space, as we are a ‘paperless office’ and don’t require the conventional filing cabinets, reception and desks that would normally fill the space.” Hughes’ show runs for the remainder of the month, and includes a reception Friday, May 24, from 7:30 to 10 p.m., at 9148 Glover Rd. The public is welcome.

Chorus director leads A Musical Menagerie

The Langley Community Chorus celebrates the animal kingdom in song on Sunday. by Ronda Payne news@langleyadvance.com

Having played the piano since she was a small child, Langley’s Anita Comba knows a thing or two about music. “I started [playing piano] as a six-year-old, so [I’ve

been playing] most of my life,” she said. In 2011, Comba took that love of music to a new level by accepting the role of music director with the Langley Community Chorus. One of her tasks is to set the program for each concert and when it comes to fun, her selections for Sunday’s performance will be hard to beat. Titled A Musical Menagerie, the program will include lively numbers like Unicorn, The Bare Necessities, and (All God’s

Creatures Got) A Place in the Choir. Plus, the senior fiddlers from the Langley Community Music School will be joining the chorus in a few of the numbers. Since becoming director, Comba has brought a different level of involvement to the group, according to Illa Stearns, part president of the chorus. “I was pretty excited by it,” Comba said of the opportunity to lead the chorus. “I’m really familiar with the choral world, but I’d never directed...

a group so large. I was daunted by the responsibility, but it was something I wanted to do. It’s very exciting.” An exceptional resume of musical accomplishments to her credit, Comba joined the Langley Community Chorus as the accompanist in 2010. She also performs a piece on the piano at each concert. According to Stearns, Comba also rehearses and conducts chorus members, plans the season’s music theme, purchases the

As Stearns noted, the board of the chorus finds

Comba to be very knowledgeable, highly enthusiastic, and energetic. “The chorus members are so happy to sing for her,” he noted. “We are currently about 78 members,” Comba said of the chorus. “So it’s a big group of people.” See this popular chorus perform their second spring concert on Sunday at 3 p.m. at the Sharon United Church at 21562 Old Yale Rd.

Apex Secondary School is an alternate Grade 7 to 12 school with a population of approximately 100 students. Apex utilizes a Longitudinal Model of educational and behavioural interventions and strategies. Founded in a wrap around model of community support, school staff and community agencies work with students to gain attachment and foster a sense of belonging. This model is designed to help students recognize and change the behaviours that prevent them from being successful in school and life. Students at Apex Secondary School have access to a strong, relevant educational program, a wide range of activities, and a school building, which provides a positive learning environment. Students are recognized as worthwhile individuals, who have the right to be safe and secure at school and to be treated in a courteous manner. Apex provides a supportive environment and empowers students to make positive choices. By recognizing and supporting the unique worth of each individual, by demonstrating empathy through Restorative Practices, and by recognizing and responding to the concerns of others, Apex expects everyone to take responsibility and learn from their mistakes. Apex offers the regular academic courses. The requirements are the same as any other school. One of the Social Studies options offered is First Nations 12, which studies the history of Aboriginals, opening a door to another world where students learn to ”hear” Family Support and “see” misconceptions. Apex is Workers are the fortunate to have an Aboriginal Support Worker who shares his conduit between life and cultural experiences the home and school. with the students and staff. Guest speakers showcase They are the heart historical events and provide and soul of the students with rich, cultural opportunities. This course is this place. very popular with Aboriginal and Non Aboriginal students alike. Other elective courses Mitch Quinn include: Applied Skills, Leadership, School Art, and Information Technology. Apex offers hands on experiential Co-ordinator learning and curriculum based field trips, which brings the classroom lessons to life. The school has a wonderful breakfast and lunch program. Apex believes that, in order to be truly successful in life, we need to feed the mind as well as the body with healthy food and exercise. The students and staff come from diverse background, and together strive to make Apex an accepting, welcoming, and engaging learning environment.

Apex has a bad reputation to the “outside wo world”.

Some me students have a hard time being and working in crowded wded environments, such as a large school. Apex is a small populated school and it makes it easier for the people who ho can’t h handle big crowds.

Oehh6d`hh= i<Ped 8cd %)VPii8a<edPeLW It’s hard to believe that Brookswood, which started out as a Junior Secondary, is approaching its 40th Anniversary as a school serving Langley students, and, in many cases, several generations of Brookswood families. In these forty years, Brookswood has changed in numerous ways, from staff and students, to the building itself in order to meet the needs of its students and community. What hasn’t changed is that Brookswood is all about offering opportunities for students. Today, the staff at Brookswood Secondary strives to educate our students for the needs of the 21st Century citizen. One program that represents Brookswood’s move into the 21st Century is our Cat Pack program. The 2013/14 year will be our pilot year, with an offering of one class of the Cat Pack at the grade 8 level in each of our English and French Immersion programs. Below is an excerpt of our rationale and vision for the program. We plan on expanding the program to grades 9 to 12 over the next five years.

c9< NPc gPN6 T bd8i: c<N9ih5h:L ch <i9PiN< '(dc N<icbeL 5<Pei8i: In the not so distant past, the role of the teacher was to share their knowledge. The school library or the home’s World Book Encyclopedia contained all the information that mattered. If students didn’t have an encyclopedia at home, they had to wait until the school opened the next morning to access the information.

We aim to break down the classroom walls and make the world part of the learning space for our students.

Today, computer technology and the Internet have made vast information resources available. It is estimated that the amount of digital information presently available is over one hundred times the total information that existed in the world twenty years ago. The teacher can no longer be the person who knows “everything”. Our vision at Brookswood is to equip our students with the skills and tools to truly be 21st century learners. We aim to break down the classroom walls and make the world part of the learning space for our students. We aim to teach them the skills to take their learning beyond the 65-minute period so that learning takes place whenever and wherever our students want to learn.

Our vision for our students is to be part of an environment where they can have the opportunity to explore, innovate, and collaborate with students in their class or experts around the world. We believe that the use of technology will create a culture of digital and global learning, increase the relevance of education in real-world scenarios, and allow for a more individualized, flexible and differentiated learning. Our vision is that students construct their own digital learning library, a blend of universal resources and personalized learning tools that fit each student’s learning style. This digital learning library is not turned in n or erased at the end of the school year but is added adde to, edited and enhanced so that hat they will one day take it with them from Brookswood ood as their personalized network of content. The Cat Pack is comprised of two groups g of grade 8 students, one French rench immersion, the other English. Students will use se an iPad as their digital learning library and will take tak the core academic subjects together with teachers that will alter their teaching styles to take advantage of the he opportunities provided by these devices. Students tudents will carry carr on in future grades with classes designed to take advantage of the technology gy that they th carry. Each year, new students will enter the program. Critical thinking,communication,collaboration, on,collaboration, creativity, flexibility, interaction, on, productivity, productivity leadership, accessibility are the hallmarks of 21st century learning. The Cat at Pack initiative initiativ will provide teachers and students with the th tools to make these hallmarkss a reality. realit

The James Anderson Learning Centre is designed as a small (180 student), academic environment specializing in helping youth who are not achieving their academic potential, regardless of reason. Many of the students who attend James Anderson Learning Centre have been the victims of violence, cultural alienation or their own unhealthy self concepts and learning barriers. James Anderson Learning Centre helps these students understand how their own negative self concepts are getting in their way. Our students have a variety of talents, and are extremely caring and accepting of one another. The schools model integrates developmental readiness (Fig1) within a variety of escalating therapeutic interventions, all being embedded throughout a traditional, university preparation academic model. We do not enable a youth’s negative self concept or label by limiting expectations or offering traditional one on one support. We are a school that uses a pro-social “drama free” culture of support and acceptance to create an environment that is safe, nurturing and empowering. There are three core components of James Anderson Learning Centre: Academic Core, Resiliency Core and Resolution Core. The Academic Core is comprised of the Grade 8 - 12 Dogwood Graduation Program with a variety of courses beingoffered(basedonenrolment and semester requirements): English 8-12, Communications 11/12, Mathematics 8-11, Science 8-10, Science & Technology 11, Earth Science 11, Chemistry 11, Physics 11, Biology 12, Social Studies 8-11, First Nations 12, Leadership 11/12 (Human Services 11/12), Health and Career 8/9, Planning 10, Graduation Transitions 12, Planning 12, Family Studies 11/12, Foods and Nutrition 11/12, Physical Education 8-12, Weight Training 11, Drama 11, Art Foundations 11-12, Studio Art 11 and Dance 11. The students who enroll at James Anderson Learning Centre can expect to make improvements in their education, but more importantly to us, in our seven core student “reasons for dropping out” risk factors: general health, mental health, attachment, identity development, home, school and community risk factors. Along with traditional report cards, if they wish, our students can track these seven risk factors as well to assess their individual progress and for general self awareness. The Resiliency Core comprises a school wide “life” preparedness focus that explores personal barriers to success, resiliency education, physical education and wellness planning. Our students learn that the key to future success is through work ethic, self awareness and self-advocacy. We at James Anderson are extremely conscious of enabling “independence rather than dependence.” The Resiliency Core incorporates various models and approaches including access to the District’s Project Resiliency Program, Restorative Action

Our students have a variety of talents, and are extremely caring and accepting of one another.

and our specialized Leadership classes, Human Services 11 and 12. The Resolution Core is where James Anderson Learning Centre focuses on those who are feeling alone and unsupported through their struggles, whatever those struggles may be.JamesAnderson has created an open and accepting mental health program which utilizes the most up to date attachment and cognitive neuroscience theories. Our open “there are no good secrets” culture allows for the sharing of experiences, thoughts and feelings resulting in a very safe and therapeutic environment. A large variety of counselling services are offered in house as well by our outstanding community partners. While functioning as a safe place, we create a pro-social culture where leadership skills develop naturally and when ready, are intentionally nurtured through our James Anderson son Leadership Leadersh Program. These students learn ass active members mem of the school that helping others ers contributes contribu to their own feelings of value and purpose. ose. We at James Anderson believe there is no better way to strengthen an adolescent’s sense of self than be being given opportunities to help others and give back ba to their communities.

LEC is a flexible and diverse high school in the district for students from age 16 to adult who are interested in either graduating or upgrading their grade 10-12 courses. One of the main strengths of LEC has always been the diversity of its students who come with a variety of backgrounds, expectations and experiences, but all with a common goal of improving themselves and their opportunities for the future. It is that diversity with a common purpose that allows all LEC students, even the ones who never really felt like school was a positive experience for them, to feel at home. This year LEC has registered over 1600 students in courses and helped over 150 students graduate on both the regular and adult graduation program.

dcb=<ic dbNN<dd dche8<dS However, numbers tell only a small part of the student success at LEC. A much more important side of success is the sense of belonging and acceptance that LEC students talk about when you ask them how they feel about the school. Tyson, an LEC student in his early 20’s, really appreciates the option to still have a job while working on his education. More importantly is the welcoming setting he has found where staff find ways to make things work. He really likes that no one is forcing him to do anything, but if you want it the staff really help and encourage you. “You feel like everyone’s got your back here”. Danaya, an 18 year old student who also likes the flexible schedule that LEC offers, also really enjoys the natural mentoring and shared experience with younger and older students taking classes together. As well she has really appreciated the way LEC teachers are able to focus on her as an individual and have encouraged and listened to her.

The ﬂexibility and support at LEC is possible partly because it is actually three schools and programs rolled into one.

Dez, 17 year old student, says she feels like LEC is preparing her for post-secondary because everyone is on the same page no matter what their age. “Everyone is friendly, and there is help from both staff and other students everywhere you look. When I work with other students in the study area it is like a multicultural neighbourhood. For me, LEC is a safe place and I love it here.” Tanya, a student in her 40’s, has really appreciated the sense of welcoming she has felt at LEC and the nevergive-up attitude from both staff and other students. “Life happens, and sometimes the recovery is the success. Many students really seem to gravitate to LEC because when you haven’t always had success or have been discouraged in the past you engage differently. I can really see the difference in myself and other students from when we first started here

The flexibility and support at LEC is possible partly because it is actually three schools and programs rolled into one. The first option allows students to enroll in semestered classes that provide a supportive structure working with a teacher and others students. Taking classes this way has proven to be the most successful and popular option for LEC students because it provides a supportive environment with set start and end times for students to complete. Classes are offered from Monday to Thursday with options for morning, afternoon or evening times.This means most people with other commitments like work or family are usually able to build a personalized schedule that fits them. Students like semestered semestere classes because there are flexible le times, while also allowing them to be in a class with other students st all learning together. New for the 2013/14 3/14 school year, LEC is moving to a trimester system ystem that will wil align more closely with university ty and college colle entrance dates and allow students nts to finish their courses sooner. First term classes sses will run from September to December, second ond term classes will run from January to April, and the new ew third term classes will run during May and June.

For a small school in Langley, BC, LFMSS has certainly made its mark within School District 35! From humble beginnings in 1999 as solely a middle school located in a ‘one hallway’ school in Willoughby, LFMSS has grown into the only middle and secondary school in Langley, celebrating its 7th year of graduating high school students . Our school is small. Yet what some may view as our greatest challenge is in fact our greatest strength. We know almost every face we pass in the hallway and they know us. The classes are not over-flowing and the teachers take the time to actually get to know their students. There are so many teachers who gladly stay to give us any extra help we need to succeed. That has made education accessible to those who We have learn differently or at a different pace. amazing teachers Students truly feel that the teachers who truly would are on our side.

Being small means people come together, it enables us to create incredible friendships and it creates a feeling of belonging, almost like a family. Rather than looking at ourselves as small we see ourselves as a close-knit community. Like any community, our school population has diverse interests, talents and abilities.

This program is available to highly motivated students in the district and emphasizes a rigorous academic environment leading to a university education. In addition, Mountain hosts a provincial program for deaf and hard of hearing students. Mountain prides itself on students’ academic accomplishment,generous service in the community and internationally, wide-ranging opportunities in elective areas, athletic achievement and awardwinning arts programs. Of note is the mosaic of cultures that make up the Mountain student body.The experiences, languages and histories of the students in the school, whether from North America, Asia, Europe, India, the Middle East or elsewhere are brought together in an accepting and open environment where students are free to learn and express themselves while being proud of their heritage. In addition to the traditional academic courses, Mountain’s program includes Art, Auto, Band, Choir, Computers, Drafting, Drama, First Nations, Foods, Leadership, Mandarin, Girl’s, Boy’s and Co-ed Physical Education, Psychology, Textiles, Video and Woodwork. Its programs reflect the District Graduate Profile, aiming to develop Ethical and Respectful Citizens,Democratic Participants,Self-Directed Individuals, Skilled and Knowledgeable Learners, Collaborative Workers and Quality Contributors.

...an accepting and open environment where students are free to learn and express themselves while being proud of their heritage.

The International Baccalaureate Program of 140 students (grades 11 & 12), along with the Pre-IB Honours Program totaling 180 students (grades 8 - 10) brings students together who are interested in a rigorous education. Recognized for its excellent curriculum, students completing the program often are granted entrance into secondyear university directly out of high school.

The Provincial Program,for Deaf and Hard of Hearing (DHH) students creates an environment where deaf students can acquire the language necessary to learn within a cohort of like individuals integrated into the regular program at the school. While the program is small, it provides an essential opportunity for deaf students to learn together with the support of DHH teachers and visual language interpreters, a service that is not available in many districts. Mountain students take pride in the service they provide to their school, the community and around the world. Some of the service groups in the school include the Leos Club, an offshoot of the local Lions club that includes over 10% of the student population.

Popular crop

PORT KELLS

Tomatoes like it dry and hot with water In any vote for the most popular food crop, tomatoes would win every time – and if you can keep their foliage dry and give them warmth, food, water, and sun, they’re easy to grow and very productive. But it’s not easy to juggle all the variables. Raised beds in greenhouses give tomatoes the smoothest ride: they develop quickly when their roots are in deep soil: a vigorous shake is all the pollination they need, and heat builds up in the glass (or polyethylene) surround. The moist winds that spread tomato blight don’t enter greenhouses, and watering and feeding are controlled by the gardener. Foliage can stay dry, and the gardener can provide compost, well-rotted manure, fish fertilizers, or organic fertilizer with high phosphorous (middle num-

ber) that tomatoes love. People who grow tomatoes in the same spot year after year should change the soil before each new batch is planted. That and careful attention to watering, rich feeding, and dry foliage stops many troubles from starting. Scatterbrained watering can cause problems. Small fruit or fruit-drop are responses to inadequate water. Irregular watering can produce split tomatoes and leaf curl. In hot weather, watering should be done at least once daily. More people grow tomatoes in containers these days. A good location is against a south or west wall to benefit from reflected heat. The roof overhang will protect to some degree against rain. Containers dry out, and may need water twice on hot days.

Tomatoes, like ‘Tumbler’ and its long, dangling branches, can be grown in hanging baskets. Big containers produce bigger crops. But some dwarf cherry tomatoes are bred for small containers. The ‘Tiny Tim’ bush tomato grows about 30 centimetres, and the miniscule ‘Micro Tom’ grows about 20cm tall, and may produce fruit in a 4” pot. In a garden bed, tomatoes are a gamble that can pay off big under a plastic

Community

Lobster lovers drive new bus The local Soroptimist group will use the funds raised at its annual dinner to support at risk youth. by Ronda Payne news@langleyadvance.com

Like lobster? How about doing something good for the community? Add having fun to the equation and it becomes a night out with the Soroptimist of the Langleys group. This year’s Lobster Mania, an annual dinner put on by the local Soroptimist club, promises to deliver fun for attendees plus hope for at-risk youth. All funds raised from the Saturday dinner will go towards a Langley bus with Project Out Reach, a program for youth to engage, build relationships, and prevent harmful street life. The modified bus is something of a mobile drop-in centre that travels to places at-risk youth might hang out at night. “It’s always something different each year” said Hilary Scarrottf, the member responsible for ticket sales, about supporting Project Out Reach.

A “dress down” kind of evening, the $55 ticket includes a two-pound Atlantic lobster, salads, buns, and all the “fixin’s” that go with a lobster feast. For this entertaining, but somewhat messy venture, the group advises guests to bring the claw-crackers. The Soroptimists will supply the bibs. Additional fundraising during the evening will include a silent auction among other activities. “There’s door prizes, a couple of games like the tooney toss and a few other things,” Scarrottf noted. Having run for a few years, past attendees will know the lobster love-in also includes music by a local DJ and a nohost bar. “Time flies, doesn’t it?” Scarrottf said when asked to recall how many years Lobster Mania has been around. “Quite a few.” The George Preston Recreation Centre at 20699 42 Ave. will house Saturday evening’s excitement with doors opening at 6 p.m. and dinner served at 7 p.m. Because lobsters need to be ordered in advance and tickets are selling quickly, it may be difficult to get one, but try contacting Scarrottf at 604-530-4358.

hoop house – or uncovered, in an unusually dry, hot summer. In a wet summer, an uncovered crop will be lost to blight. But blight-resistant tomatoes are becoming easier to find. ‘Defiant’ is large-fruited, ‘Mountain Magic’ is a large cherry type, and both produced many tomatoes for me in the long, hot summer last year. I don’t yet know how they would do in a cold, wet summer. ‘Legend’ has also produced well for me. Try to avoid planting tomatoes anywhere potatoes have been grown in the past few years, or use mulch to keep from splashing up blight spores while watering. If your mulch is plastic, you’ll need to run a soaker hose underneath it. Bush tomatoes (determinate types) seldom need to be pruned, because they produce short branches with the fruit truss only at the tip. But indeterminate (vine) tomatoes grow into huge bushes unless you prune out most of the suckers that sprout from leaf axils. The first three or four suckers can be kept, because they may have time to produce fruit. The later ones won’t.

he documentary film Mighty Uke is being shown on the Knowledge Network May 30 at 9 p.m. and June 2 at 11 p.m. Langley’s unique uke culture figures prominently. And in preparation for the airings, local ukulele master Peter Luongo was interviewed. He even taught the interviewer how to play the uke in a quick lesson. Another uke master is Langley-raised James Hill. Now living in Nova Scotia, he’s playing at the Vancouver Children’s Festival May 27 to June 2. He picked up the instrument in Grade 4 while at Belmont Elementary and is considered one of the best in the world.

With the overall highest scores in their divisions, Kick It Up A Notch had the honour of being asked to showcase two different pieces in the premier event: a Division 2 jazz solo by Alaina Orr as well as a Division 4 senior contemporary piece, Come Home that shares the story of the relationship and difficulties of having a loved one away at war. Come Home was named as the overall winner. “Just to be asked to perform in this event was such a big honour,” said

studio director and choreographer Tonya Wejr, “but then to be recognized as the overall top dance in the entire competition… pretty much left me speechless. These girls have worked so hard this year and we were even down a dancer (due to injury) so to have them rise up like this makes me so proud.”

Beauty is everywhere, absolutely,” notes painter Barbara Boldt over coffee in her home/ studio in the Glen Valley. “And sometimes, it¹s where you least expect it.”

angley’s International Festival Society is seeking volunteers for this year’s event. The festival will be celebrated on Aug. 24 and 25th. You can volunteer as little as four hours. It is one of the biggest multicultural events in Canada and brings people from all walks of life together for a weekend of learning, family fun and cultural enlightenment. Volunteers are able to meet new people, learn about different cultures, and more. Every year, there is a special draw for the volunteers – last year one of the volunteers won a 50-inch flat screen TV, a way of thanking them for help.

The defending Western Lacrosse Association champion Langley Thunder were looking to improve their record to 2-0 when they made their 2013 home debut last night (May 22) at the Langley Events Centre. Results from the Thunder’s home opener against the Coquitlam Adanacs, the team Langley defeated in the WLA playoff championship series last summer, got underway after the Langley Advance went to press Wednesday afternoon. Thunder 13, Maple Ridge Burrards 10 Sunday’s season opener at Planet Ice Maple Ridge featured the worst (the Burrards) and first (the Thunder) place teams from the 2012 season. The Burrards, who finished at the bottom of the seventeam WLA standings with a 4-13-1 record last season, appeared poised for an upset early on. The hosts scored the final three goals of the first period to carry a 7-4 lead into the intermission. But in the middle stanza, the Thunder took over by outscoring the Burrards 5-0 to move ahead 9-7. The Burrards made a strong push in the third period with back-to-back goals to narrow their deficit to 10-9. After that, the Thunder cemented the victory with goals from Joel McCready, Athan Iannucci, and Shayne Jackson to make it 13-9. Burrards’ star Curtis Dickson scored his third of the game with 1:13 remaining in regulation to round out the scoring. McCready had a productive night with four goals and three assists. He also got into a fight with Maple Ridge’s Mitchell Banister with 32 seconds to go in the game, and ended up finishing with 19 minutes in penalties. “I think we came out and were a little rusty at first, and our defence really stepped it up in the second period and let us get out there and have some offensive success,” McCready said. “It’s still early in the year, so everyone’s getting used to playing with each other.”

The Township, along with Provincial and Federal agencies, have classified open channel water systems into three categories: Class A ditches are fish bearing and Class B ditches are fish habitat. Both of these categories require formal approval before any work can be completed. Class C ditches are deemed to have no fish or fish habitat issues whatsoever and only require notification for work to take place. How or when a ditch is cleaned depends on its classification.

Home to provincial champions, the Langley Curling Club has been recognized by Curl BC for a fine 2012/13 season. by Troy Landreville

sports@langleyadvance.com

The Langley Curling Club had a year to remember. The club in Brookswood, and a rink representing it, were the big winners as the Curl BC annual awards for the 2012/13 season were revealed recently. The club was awarded the Curling Centre of the Year award for the service it provides to the curling community, to both recreational and competitive curlers. “Of course the board and myself are very proud of the award and it comes as a complete surprise to all of us,” Langley Curling Club manager Nigel Easton said. “As a manager it gives me great pride in the work that I have done over the years has been recognized by persons outside the club.” Easton elaborated that the award is a collective effort. “It is not me alone but the work of our board members, our volunteers, and our many members that “The board and myself continue to speak so highly of our club, as well as are very proud of the the many more competiaward and it comes as tive and highly successful teams that now play out of a complete surprise to our club,” he said. all of us.” The club was home to a Nigel Easton number of B.C. champions this past season, including both the men’s and women’s senior champions, the women’s master champions, and junior curlers from the winning 2013 Tim Hortons B.C. junior men’s curling championship team and the winning 2013 B.C. mixed doubles championship rink. Other local winners include: Team Karen Lepine (Langley Curling Club) – Master Curler Team of the Year Three members of this team from the Langley Curling Club were B.C. senior champions as well as masters champions and travelled to both P.E.I. and Thunder Bay to compete at the national level. The team is made up of Karen Lepine (Surrey), Lorraine Jeffries (Port Alberni), Carol Martel (Vernon), and Agnes Sigurdson (Langley). Karen Lepine – Female Adult Athlete of the Year The Surrey resident won gold at the 2013 Tim Hortons B.C. senior curling championships and the 2013 BC Master curling championships. Despite breaking her arm at the senior national event in Summerside, PEI, she continued to curl for the rest of the season, also travelling to Thunder Bay, Ont., for the national masters championships. All the winners will be presented with plaques at the Business of Curling Symposium Banquet on Saturday, June 8. The Curl BC Annual Awards are given out every year to deserving athletes, curling centres, businesses, and volunteers across the province. Nominations are accepted up to April 30 of every year and the winners are selected by a committee.

Soccer

Langley youth, men’s clubs now united Local adult squads hope to include graduating youth players to round out their rosters. The Langley United Soccer Association is entering the realm of men’s soccer. The youth club and Langley United FC Men’s club (LUFCA) have merged into the Langley United Soccer Association in time for the 2013 fall season that kicks off in September. LUFCA had 11 teams competing in the Fraser Valley Men’s Soccer League during the 2012/13 season. Informal discussions began a few months ago with the hope that the men’s program could seamlessly join LUSA. It did not take long for the two groups to realize it was mutually beneficial for the two clubs to come together. LUSA needed to expand its adult programming in order to have a proper avenue for its youth players to “graduate” to men’s and women’s soccer, and LUFCA needed LUSA’s graduating players in order

to continue to fill its men’s team rosters – something it was unable to do with its program structure this past year. “The joining of the two clubs has been anticipated for years and we look forward to having the men’s club join into LUSA to create one large club with the common goal of building a soccer club all of Langley can be proud of,” said LUSA president Shelley Chandra, who thanked the leadership of LUFCA for coming forward and working hard to make this union a reality. “Langley United is inclusive and we are working to build our club even further as we continue our momentum towards becoming one of B.C.’s best soccer clubs.” Mike Wagner, president of the men’s club, noted that LUFCA has worked closely with LUSA for many years. “Our joining in to officially create one large club makes sense on many different economic, programming, and community levels,” Wagner said. “Most importantly, we now have one major club in Langley under which our entire soccer community can work together towards the exciting goal of building one of the best soccer

clubs in British Columbia.” Joining forces with a club with the vision and direction of LUSA has always been LUFCA’s goal, according to Wagner. “The meshing of the programming will help graduating youth players in making a seamless transition into the adult game,” he added. “We are all excited about this new chapter, and look forward to playing a part in building a club we can all call our own.” LUFCA will shortly disband its society and fold its operations into LUSA with the intention of commencing play under the LUSA banner beginning this September. With the union of the two clubs, Langley United becomes, by a significant margin, the largest soccer club in the Fraser Valley, according to the club. With more than 2,500 registered players and growing, the club is looking to expand on-field programs, coach education programs, and its outreach into the community as Langley’s largest youth sports organization.

Goalie makes 41 saves in win

…continued from page A25 Alex Turner tallied a hat trick and three assists while Iannucci got off to a good start to his season with two goals and four helpers. Brett Hickey and Kerry Susheski had the other Thunder goals. Along with Dickson’s hat trick, Mike Mallory and Jarrett Davis (who added two assists) had twogoal nights for the hosts. Patrick O’Meara, Aaron Pascas, and Andrew Murphy also scored for Maple Ridge. Dickson directed a game-high 19 shots on Thunder goaltender Brodie MacDonald, who made 41 saves for the victory. The Burrards’ Kevin Reid was assessed 30 minutes in penalties for his altercation with Jackson with 37 seconds remaining in the game. Reid was hit with a fighting major, fighting aggressor penalty, and unsportsmanlike conduct penalty. Jackson was charged with roughing and fighting.
