A parking garage fire sparked fears in residents at a Langley apartment complex, after a month of vandalism and threats from local thieves. The fire was reported at 3:13 p.m. on Tuesday, at the Plaza 200 Apartments at the corner of Michaud Crescent and 200th Street in Langley City. City fire crews found a lot of smoke, and while the actions of residents and fire sprinklers had already largely quelled the blaze, it took them some time to vent smoke from the building. One woman suffered smoke inhalation and was being treated at the scene, while firefighters urged her to go to the hospital. Resident Matthew M., who didn’t want to give his last name, said he and another resident saw the flames in the garage and grabbed fire extinguishers. With a three-year-old upstairs, Matthew said he wanted the fire out as soon as possible. He doused the fire, and then the overhead sprinklers came on a moment later. The parking garage filled with smoke. He believes the fire, which destroyed a mobility scooter belonging to a tenant, was deliberately set. “It’s just been ongoing for the past month,” said Matthew. He and several other residents

Langley City firefighters cleaned up after a small fire in a Langley City apartment’s parking garage. said a small group of drug addicts has been targeting the building. They are believed to have stolen a key, and are allegedly responsible for thefts from vehicles, vandalism, and threats to residents who see them, confront them, or call the police. Firefighters confirmed the circumstances of Tuesday’s fire were suspicious and the fire is under investigation by the RCMP. Cars have had tires slashed, a van had the word “snitch” written on it, and doors to the building have been pried open, residents said. One resident described the situation as a vendetta against those who have called the police. One woman was allegedly threatened with a bat, another man was threatened with a knife,

residents said. Police say they have been called out to the building recently several times. Of six property offenses at the Plaza 200 since January, four were in June, said Cpl. Holly Marks, a spokesperson for the Langley RCMP. “There have been a number of issues with the apartment buildings in the neighbourhood for the last couple of months,” said Marks. “The Core Team [the Downtown Core Enforcement Team] is now focussing on this area.” The Crime Prevention Team has been working with the owners of the Plaza 200 and the nearby Creekside, which are both managed by the same people.

into the Creekside building has been acquired, and the police are anticipating the approval of charges soon. Langley City administrator Francis Cheung encouraged residents to call the police whenever they see something suspicious. “There’s no call that’s too small,” Cheung said. The more calls the RCMP get, the more files they’ll open on a particular area, and the more patrols and enforcement they can devote to that space. Residents can also speak to officers from the Community Policing Office in Langley City, and the Langley RCMP runs a Crime Free Multi Housing program, which can offer tips to tenants and building owners on how to make their buildings safer.

Three people were hurt in a head-on crash on a steep and winding road in the North Otter area of Langley on Monday afternoon. At about 4:30 p.m., a Volkswagen Jetta collided head on with a GMC Sierra pickup in the 24600 block of 56th Avenue, said Cpl. Holly Marks, spokesperson for the Langley RCMP.

Not much was left of the front end of a Jetta that slammed into a truck on a twisty stretch of road in North Otter. The Jetta was headed west into the steep curves on 56th Avenue. As the Jetta headed down into the ravine that cuts through the area, it crossed the double yellow lines and slammed into the east-

bound truck driven by a 53-yearold Abbotsford woman. The 18-year-old Jetta driver and the Sierra driver were both taken to hospital with minor injuries. The passenger in the Jetta,

the 18-year-old girlfriend of the driver, was trapped for almost an hour after the front of the car was destroyed. She had to be extracted by Langley Township firefighters, and was then rushed to hospital by Air Ambulance for treatment of broken bones, said Marks. There was a police witness to the crash, as an officer was directly behind the Sierra. Another driver was also heading east at the same time and also saw the crash. Langley Traffic Services is now investigating the collision, which may be linked to high speed, said Marks. Both vehicles will be mechanically inspected.

Burglars rip apart senior’s home A woman’s Brookswood home was ransacked while she was in a care facility. by Matthew Claxton

mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

An elderly Langley woman’s house was ransacked by thieves while she stayed in a care home, police say. The woman, in her 80s, lost everything from an old family Bible to a complete Second World War military uniform, along with copper wire and piping. The home, in the 2500 block of 206th Street, was broken into sometime during late May or early June. On June 4, an associate of the owner came “It was as if a in to check giant had taken on a the house, picked buildit up, shaken it for ing that had 10 minutes and been then put it back vacant down.” for nearly Investigating officer two years by that point. He found that someone had broken in through the back door. Almost nothing of value remained in the house, said Cpl. Holly Marks, spokesperson for the Langley RCMP. One officer who investigated said, “it was as if a giant had taken the house, picked it up, shaken it for 10 minutes and then put it back down,” said Marks.

Police said it looked like a ransacked house had been shaken by a giant.

Among the items missing from the home are an electric motor from a garden chipper, a three speed bike, a dark mahogany living room table and three upholstered chairs, a book case with glass doors, two western saddles, a surveillance camera, more than 30 78 rpm phonograph records, the family Bible, and the uniform, which

was marked Royal Westminster Regiment Number 47. The thieves even gutted the house for scraps of metal. About 100 feet of power cable was cut down, and every visible piece of wire and copper pipe were taken from in and under the building. A local church has volunteered to help clean up the home, which was left scattered

with everything the thieves left behind. The RCMP are asking anyone with information about the stolen items or the thieves to contact them at 604-532-3200, or via CrimeStoppers at 1-800-2228477 (TIPS) or through www. solvecrime.ca or www.facebook. com/metrovancouvercrimestoppers.

Proposed pipeline route near Fraser River A new route for an oil pipeline will take it closer to the Fraser River in Langley. by Gordon Hoekstra Special to the Langley Advance

Kinder Morgan’s proposed $5.4-billion Trans Mountain pipeline twinning project through Langley and Surrey will divert from its existing route to avoid built-up areas, but

puts the pipeline closer to the Fraser River. The Calgary-based company released its proposed route plans for Surrey on Friday and the Langley route earlier this week, showing the first major diversion from the existing pipeline, which began operation in 1954. The rest of the proposed pipeline, through the Fraser Valley and Interior, largely follows the existing route. The company expects to release its proposed route for the pipeline north of the

Fraser River next week. Diverting around neighbourhoods – such as Walnut Grove in Langley and Fraser Heights in Surrey – could allay concerns of some residents. But placing the pipeline closer to the Fraser River along the CN Rail corridor will likely focus more attention on the potential risk of spills and their effect on the major salmon-bearing waterway.

Teacher turns in licence

A Langley man has been banned from teaching after telling inappropriate stories to kids. by Matthew Claxton mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

A former Langley elementary school teacher has lost his certification for strange and inappropriate classroom behaviour. Robert Lee Davies showed elementary students shirtless photos of himself flexing his muscles, and told jokes or stories that included the sexual abuse of a First Nations woman by a police officer, masturbation, and drinking and driving on the highway. He also allowed students to share stories that included profanity or tales about their parents getting drunk. A Langley School District investigation also showed that he failed to comply with an order from his superiors to not have contact with staff and students until the investigation was finished, and that he tried to undermine the investigation. The investigation found that he made inappropriate remarks about the principal of his

school. Finally, the report noted that he took a sick day fraudulently. The district’s report detailing all of these claims went to the province in June of last year. The matter went to a consensual resolution process, and in May Davies signed an agreement admitting to the facts laid out by the district, and that he had committed professional misconduct. He also agreed to see his teaching certificate cancelled. “Mr. Davies agrees that he will never again apply for a certificate with the Branch and that he will never again apply for or accept any position of employment anywhere (inside or outside of British Columbia) that would involve teaching in any capacity people under the age of 18 years,” reads the agreement. The agreement was signed in May by Davies and by Bruce Preston, the Commissioner for Teacher Regulation. Ken Hoff of the Langley School District said no more information will be released about Davies. “Our investigation is over,” Hoff said. The school at which Davies taught will not be named to avoid identifying the children involved.

Speech offered few surprises

Frozen tax rates and skills training were at the forefront of the throne speech. by Jonathan Fowlie

Special to the Langley Advance

Premier Christy Clark on Wednesday promised a renewed push on jobs and skills training, saying both areas need new measures and new goals to protect the province from the stilltroubled world economic climate. “The global economy is fragile, and recovery has been slow,” said the Throne Speech delivered Wednesday by Clark’s recently re-elected government. “In British Columbia, we must protect our economy and the jobs and citizens who depend on it.” Clark’s government promised an accelerated jobs plan to drive growth across the provincial economy, as well as a renewed plan for skills training. “To continue equipping our institutions, set targets to match skills to jobs and ensure a seamless delivery of skills training from high school through to entry in the workforce, your government will develop a comprehensive 10-year skills-training plan,” said the speech. Speaking to reporters before, Clark said the new jobs plan will seek to build on the one she released in September 2011. “The jobs plan needs an update. We need to update it based on what we’ve already achieved and set some new goals,” she said. “In some areas where we’ve done really well, we need to add some new goals. In other areas, like technology, where there’s a new ministry, I think we have a real chance to

expand the jobs plan and grow it.” Read by Lt.-Gov. Judith Guichon, Wednesday’s Throne Speech recommitted the BC Liberal government to election promises such as a five-year freeze on personal income taxes, and a five-year freeze on the province’s carbon tax. It repeated a pre-election promise to eventually contribute $1,200 to RESPs for every child born after January 2007. It also recommitted the government to four years of balanced budgets, and to double the number of hospice beds by 2020. The speech also promised to work towards “long-term labour stability” in classrooms, though did not specifically mention the 10-year timeframe Clark has repeatedly pledged for a new contract with the British Columbia Teachers’ Federation. In the speech, Clark’s government said it will “drive growth in the clean energy sector and continue the development of Site C and other new sources of renewable energy to ensure reliable and affordable electricity for future generations.” Clark does not have a seat in the Legislature, and so watched the Throne Speech from a row of seats for invited guests and dignitaries along the chamber wall. She spoke to the media before the speech at a construction site for an assisted-living home for seniors with funding from three levels of government. “These are the kinds of investments we can make because we have a growing economy despite the fact that the world economy remains fragile,” said Clark. • More at langleyadvance.com

Best of history is yet to come

On Canada Day, it’s traditional to spend at least some time looking back at how this country came to be. If you go to a celebration and do not hear a mention of A) Sir John A. Macdonald B) the War of 1812 C) the HBC or D) Vimy Ridge, you are at a very peculiar event. Likewise, the accomplishments that have become entrenched in Canadian society are likely to be celebrated – democracy, freedom of speech and religion, pluralism and tolerance, universal health care, and so forth. There is nothing wrong with looking back at where we came from and appreciating Email with where we are. However, on this Canada Day, we urge everyone to spend a few minutes looking forward, and thinking about the future of Canada, not just the past. What kind of a Canada will we have in 10 years, 20 years, 50 years, a century? Every politician repeats endlessly that we are working to leave this country to the next generation, but what does that mean? We encourage you not to simply think about the future in terms of tragedies to avoid. Yes, we must consider the economy, the environment, and the ever-disruptive march of technology. But we should also think in terms that verge on the utopian, from time to time. How much better could we be tomorrow? How much better could we make our little piece of the planet, through actions both individual and collective? What can we achieve if we put our strength behind optimistic ideas? A glance at our history will show that almost every good thing about our society was once considered an unworkable pipe dream. Hard work and pragmatism bridged the gap between dreams and solid realities of the present. The past is fixed and finite, the future is vast, unknowable, and could be full of wonders, if are willing to create them. – M.C.

Vancouver riot

‘Legal system’ off-side Dear Editor, To quote my wife, “Hurrah… hockey season is finally over.” Yup, the Boston Bruins were humiliated at home by the Chicago Blackhawks. And I couldn’t help but feel that that is somehow “just,” because of the Bruins’ Stanley Cup win in game 7 against the Vancouver Canucks two years ago. It also reminded me of the shame I felt because of the resultant mobs and riot in downtown Vancouver. And the further shame I now feel because of the leniency of our socalled “justice system.” There are still court cases ongoing. It should more appropriately be called the Canadian “legal system” instead, as there’s nothing “just” about it. It’s a shame many Canadians feel these days. Thanks for letting me “rant.” Gord Weitzel, Langley

Dear Editor, My family have lived in Langley City for almost 40 years and during that time we have seen a lot of politicians come and go, but in my recollection all have been voted in by the citizens of Langley. In the last municipal election I voted for Peter Fassbender for mayor because I admired his vision for the future of our community and I felt he was the best man for the job. What I did not do was vote for a council member to be mayor until the next municipal election, nor did I vote to have council go one member short for that same time. I agree with Councillor Dave Hall that democracy is not being served by the decision not to hold a byelection. Using the excuse that we are saving money is questionable at best. How do you justify spending so much money on signage for the City yet refuse to spend this small amount in support of democracy? I respectfully ask that council reconsider their decision and give it back to the people they represent.

While I am excited for Mr. Fassbender in his new provincial roles, I feel like we have lost a great champion for the City of Langley. It was under his watch that the Downtown Langley Master Plan was developed which laid out a visionary framework for a walkable, prosperous central core to the community. With Mr. Fassbender gone, we will need other people to take his place and become the new champions of building an accessible downtown core, and fighting for improved public transportation in the community. We need someone who truly believes that a successful downtown is key to the future of Langley. Nathan Pachal, Langley [Note: A fuller version of this letter is online at www. langleyadvance.com.

New taxation rules could impact charity work

Aldergrove Seventh-day Adventists are now restricted in how they can help needy single moms.

need of a car for herself and two teenagers. Her old sedan has been on its last legs for a few years, and is now barely functioning, Allen said. Recognizing how crippling this new taxation law could be to some, he’s hoping the government will reconsider the decision. Allen understands that it levels the playing field for automotive dealerships, noting with past rules they were at a disadvantage when selling previously owned vehicles because they had to charge tax, while those selling through a private person-to-person sale did not.

It’s costing an Aldergrovebased group more to be kind. The Seventh-day Adventist Church has an acts of kindness (AOK) ministry that offers several programs to help people in need in this community, including the Extreme Home Repair, Single Mother’s Oil Change, and the Mini-vans for Moms. But new taxation laws are putting one of these programs in jeopardy, said Darren Allen, founder and coordinator of the mini-van giveaway. Since the program’s inception in 2008, the church has fixed up and given away 11 cars to single mothers in desperate need. They were prepared to give away their 12th this week, when they ran into a snag, Allen explained. He’s been told that as of April 1 a car cannot be gifted to another person, unless it’s to a family member, without the recipient having to pay a 12-percent tax. “The people you’re trying to help are going to get hit,” said Allen, who is unwilling to pass along that “burden.” Consequently, as it stands the church is going to have to take on that added cost – not once, but twice during the restoration and gifting of each future car.

Darren Allen photos

Two-year-old Hudson wanted to help Dad, Darren Allen, install new rotors on the 1994 Toyota Tercel, which Aldergrove Seventh Day Adventist is hoping to donate to a needy single mother. He noted that the 12-per-cent tax will have to be paid when a car is donated to the program, so it can go through refurbishing and restoration. That process, Allen explained, can be costly sometimes, and can take days or sometimes months to ensure the vehicle is safe and fully functional before being gifted to a needy mother. Then, the car has to be reassessed for fair market value again, and another 12-per-cent tax has to be paid before the

needy mother can take ownership. It seems unfair, Allen said. “If a single mom is scraping by and ends at zero every month, $120 (the 12 per-cent-tax on a $1,000 vehicle) could be her groceries for the month.” While Allen said he won’t let the new tax law sideline the program, he admitted it’s going to compromise the great work they’re doing. He said the bottom line is that fewer cars can be given out to

those in need. “It’s always frustrating when the government makes decisions to get more money,” and doesn’t consider the ramifications on the people. In the current case, Allen said he fortunately received a 1994 Toyota Tercel several months ago, and has been working on it for a while, including installation of new front brakes and rear wheel bearings. They now have a single mother from Aldergrove in desperate

The pending recipient’s need is immediate. She can’t wait for the laws to be changed again. But Allen hopes a provision can be added to the new rules that takes non-profit efforts into consideration. The church has contacted MLA Rich Coleman for assistance or direction. His office staff said there’s nothing they can do. Coleman was contacted by the Langley Advance. He was not able to reply prior to deadline.

Public can help with fundraisers Businesses take on inititiaves to help their communities. by Heather Colpitts hcolpitts@langleyadvance.com

What a treat Young entrepreneurs and friends Isabella Sestito and Presley Mills met with Langley Animal Protection Society shelter manager Sean Baker to present him with the proceeds from a fundraiser they did on their own selling homemade cookies and iced tea to raise $420. The two organized it themselves without any help from teachers or parents. They both got inspired after a charity project in school.

What keeps getting better each year?

Aldergrove Financial Group staff raised more than $20,000 to support BC Children’s Hospital through their annual fundraising campaign. “We are honoured to support a charity that does so much for seriously ill children and their families. BC Children’s Hospital makes such a difference in their lives,” said CEO Gus K. Hartl. “I am proud to say our staff worked so hard in their fundraising

efforts that our total donation increased from last year.” Fundraising took place through a variety of activities including:

• A raffle for a chance to win a signed Vancouver Canucks Ryan Kesler jersey and a signed BC Lions Travis Lulay jersey • Gift basket raffles, book sales and hot dog BBQs • 50/50 draws • A penny drive • Staff jeans days • A staff team in the BC Children’s Hospital slo-pitch tourney. The Aldergrove Financial Group A-Team was the largest team fundraising in its division.

BC Children’s Hospital uses donations to purchase life-saving equipment; research the treatment, prevention and cure of childhood diseases; recruit and provide educational programs for caregivers; and provide programs in communities around B.C.

Getting hungry

White Spot is having a birthday. Canada’s longestrunning restaurant chain celebrates 85 years. The actual anniversary was June 16. “For many British Columbians, White Spot is a home away from home,” says Warren Erhart, president of White Spot. “As

the overwhelming number of guest stories attest, I’m proud to say we’ve become part of the fabric of the province.” Nat Bailey started White Spot in 1928, and an 85th anniversary menu features classics from that era. The commemorative menu is available only until July 14. Net proceeds from the 85th Anniversary menu, which are available for $2 as a keepsake, support Zajac Ranch for Children. Bailey opened Canada’s first drive-in at Granville Street and 67th Avenue in 1928. Nat began his food career serving refreshments at baseball games. Nat Bailey Stadium in Vancouver is named in his honour. Nat transformed his 1918 Model T Ford into a travelling lunch counter, and served hungry sightseers at Vancouver’s Lookout Point. Hot dogs were a dime and ice cream was a nickel. White Spot sources nearly five million pounds of potatoes, 675,000 pounds of tomatoes and 73,000 pounds of blueberries from B.C. producers every year.

Getting hungrier

More than 170 KFC locations in six provinces will

launch an inaugural fundraising initiative to support children’s hospitals in their respective provinces. Customer donations will be used to help provide much-needed treatment, specialized equipment, and pediatric program funding for sick and injured kids for Children’s Miracle Network member hospitals. That means BC Children’s Hospital here. This summer customers can show their support in two ways: by purchasing an eight-piece Family Feast, with a portion of proceeds benefiting their nearest local Children’s Miracle Network member hospital foundation; and by buying the charity’s trademark Miracle Balloon icon at participating KFC locations. Either choice will result in all proceeds benefiting the nearest Children’s Miracle Network member hospital. “Every year BC Children’s Hospital receives over 200,000 visits from children from across the province,” said Teri Nicholas, president and CEO of BC Children’s Hospital Foundation. “Support from KFC’s customers will help us ensure these children receive the very best in care.”

Fort Langley

The birthplace of British Columbia always seems a fitting location to celebrate Canada’s birthday and with plenty of events on the agenda, the Fort Langley National Historic Site will be ready. As always, admission to the Fort is free on Canada Day (as it is at all national parks and historic sites), and the fun begins with a pancake breakfast hosted by the Fort Langley Lions Club at 8:30 a.m. – just $5 or $3 for kids. The Fort activities open at 10 a.m. with the historic buildings remaining open until closing at 5 p.m. For those born in Canada, a citizenship ceremony can be quite moving to watch. Several brand new Canadians take their oath at 10 a.m. At noon, mark Canada’s 146th birthday with the official flag raising ceremony and cake cutting. There will be plenty for children to see and do with kids games at 10:15 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. at the lower fort, balloon artists from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., and opportunities to pan for gold or watch farm animals all day. Multicultural entertainment will be spotted around the fort throughout the day with the Royal Academy of Bhangra Dancers, Kwantlen Drummers Procession, White Spot Pipe Band and Highland Dancers, the choir Les Échos du Pacifique, and the Compaigni V’ni Dansi Louis Riel Metis Dancers. Get to know what Canadian ancestors went through in the early years by watching the Road to Canada Play, taking in historic weapons demonstrations, and the “Story of the Voyageurs” program. Of course staff and volunteers will be about dressed in period costumes as well.

All around Langley there will be ways to celebrate July 1 with fellow patriotic Canadians. by Ronda Payne news@langleyadvance.com

Central Langley

For those in search of heavy doses of family fun to celebrate the country’s birthday, check out the Langley Canada Day Celebrations from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. at McLeod Athletic Park. Why so late? For the 15 minutes of fireworks of course! This fullon family event delivers a wide range of entertainment, activity, food, and even shopping throughout the day. The onsite marketplace will feature 40 unique crafters and businesses in an outdoor setting. Plus with loads of food choices from traditional fair food to ethnic dishes, every taste bud will be satisfied.

Carnival rides, games, and bouncy activities will be available for the adventurous, but those who prefer a slower pace can take a swing at mini golf, ride a pony, visit the petting zoo or even spend time at the colouring contest which offers a chance to win a playhouse. Watch dogs do more than just good tricks at the canine agility shows, question how circus performers do their tricks by taking in a Circus Lab circus school demo, and even be baffled by the tricks of magician, The Great Lutini. From the main stage toe-tapping, kid playing, and crazy musical antics will fill the grounds. Well-known kids’ entertainers Bobs and Lolo take the stage early in the day, with local country and pop act Robyn and Ryleigh at the centre of things

Cloverdale

If bigger is better, then surely the Surrey Canada Day held at the Cloverdale Millennium Amphitheatre is the place to be. Among the many notable entertainers on this year’s mainstage, the audience will find country girl Crystal Shawanda, Halifax rockers Sloan, and for the 9 p.m. finale, ’80s breakout band Platinum Blonde. Seniors are on the schedule at this special event with a strawberry tea served by the mayor and council specifically for senior-aged attendees. Held at the Cloverdale Recreation Centre,

the tea will run from noon to 3 p.m. with bingo at 2 p.m. More than 50 exhibitors will be at the amphitheatre site for attendees to peruse, chat to, and shop from. The ferris wheel, Zipper, Spider, bouncy castles and many other rides, games and attractions will be available for the young and young at heart. The smallest of the young at heart will enjoy face painting, a special sports zone, Kidsworld, and Storyville – all things to keep kids happy and entertained while enjoying a massive birthday party. From mini-donuts to barbeque chicken, there will be plenty to eat on site, plus, if you run short on cash an ATM will be on the grounds. Sit back and take in sounds you normally hear only at home with your favourite CTV personalities broadcasting live from the Surrey Canada Day. Just before everyone is completely worn out, hustle back to the mainstage for the 10:15 p.m. fireworks which is sure to be an incredible show. To take in the biggest Canada Day event in western Canada, you need only head to the Surrey/Langley border.

Willowbrook

If shopping is on the Canada Day agenda, Willowbrook Shopping Centre may be just the place to celebrate. Swing by from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. in your red and white to honour Canada and receive a free Vancouver Canadians baseball ticket while quantities last. On that baseball theme, the Langley Little League players will be on hand in the centre giving away ice cream by donation in support of the Vancouver Canadians Baseball Foundation.

Join us in the gardens for live music, lavender wreath-making, artisans, alternative healers, jewelry artists, pottery. Beautiful gardens to walk and sit in while sipping a lavender latte or cold lavender lemonade and so much more!

New songs ready for Canada Day The Gillespie sisters are performing before a hometown audience again on July 1. by Roxanne Hooper

Robyn and Ryleigh Gillespie are absolutely psyched about performing at the Canada Day festivities at McLeod Athletic Park again, not just because it’s one of the first opportunities they’ve had in a long while to entertain before a large hometown crowd. This is also going to be the first real chance they’ll have to debut many of the new songs coming out on their first full-length album in mid-July. Describing themselves as part mud, makeup, glamour, and fun, the Gillespie girls are a country/pop

Duo’s energy impressed veteran music producers …continued from page A12

“I like it behind an instrument, that’s my comfort zone,” said Robyn. She puts her life experiences into lyrics and music – a traditional country acoustic sound that’s blended with the energy of modern rock. That’s where Ryleigh – now 18 – comes in. She’s admittedly more of a pop music girl, not so apt at songwriting or playing musical instruments as her sister, but excited with where her vocal talents and strong stage presence – as well as her growing passion for acting – may take her. “What I know best is

how to work a stage,” Ryleigh said, noting she does know how to play guitar and a little bit of mandolin. The sisters first came together musically more than a decade ago, with Ryleigh adding her own harmonies to her sister’s songs whenever they’d perform around the firepit or at family functions. That’s when the duo’s pure joy from singing together became apparent to their parents, and their future in the entertainment industry began to write itself. Following a pretty traditional route, the Brookswood Secondary

students (at the time) began competing in local talent contests, performing at occasional public events, and busking along the beach in White Rock. About five years ago now, they started seriously flogging their sound on the festival circuit – the crowds of receptive listeners growing exponentially, Robyn said. It was during an appearance at the Spirit of the Sea festival in White Rock about three years back, that they first impressed veteran country music producers and managers David Wills and Paul Shatto. The men, known for

their success in launching Canadian Country Music the careers of acts like The Awards. Higgins, A.J.

Hayley, and Jess Moskaluke. And it led the girls to their next big step – the impending release of their self-titled album, Robyn & Ryleigh, which hits stores on July 17. “It’s going to be in stores, and we’re so excited,” said an almost giddy Ryleigh. “It’s been a real long, long process. When we get to release this and see our album in stores, there’s going to be a big sigh of relief.” The youngest sister is still on a cloud every time she hears the first single from that album, Just Another Sundown, played on the radio.

Local group You’ve Gotta Have Friends (YGHF) is once again holding it’s now-annual Boppin’ In The Park dances in Douglas Park. With three great evenings lined up, there’s no reason to miss out on the fun of coming together.

Coming together is what it’s all about. YGHF is a Langley community-based group that focuses on inclusion and belonging. Friendship is the key and togetherness is how the group makes everyone feel welcome and included. “It’s just a real feel good community kind of thing,” said Pat Weibelzahl of YGHF. The first event is Friday at 6 p.m. with Mike Higgins and Friends as the band. “They’re kind of easylistening, old time songs,” said Weibelzahl. “A lot of people recognize the

SNORING?

SLEEP APNEA?

As recommended by Dr. Gifford-Jones M. D.

Loose muscles

in the throat cause snoring, also interrupted breathing and gasping for air (sleep apnea), which brings on being tired all day, need for napping, high blood pressure, strokes, heart attacks, irregular heart beat. Read below how Bell helps thousands, usually first night, inexpensively, with no side effects. Greatly improves quality of life and saves marriages. Survey says 48% snore and 75% are suffering if you include the silent suffering partners. To my surprise, after taking BellSound Sleep #23 I really didn’t snore or gasp for air anymore. I sleep through the night and feel #23 rested and refreshed in the morning. Mark Wilson, 40, Hudson, NH ! Sleep apnea capsules worked first night! For last 15 years I had sleep apnea and my doctor made me buy a CPAP machine, which I could not use. Finally Bell #23 helped the first night and every night thereafter. Like a miracle. Unbelievable. Karen Braun, 67, Glace Bay, NS ! For 20 years I was waking up frequently gasping for air. During the day I would start napping every time I would sit down, because I was tired. Since taking Bell #23 sleeping 6 hours is heaven. It made a substantial change in my life. Mary C. Myrick, 62, Jackson, MS !It is such a joy not having to use the CPAP machine. I have had sleep apnea for 10 years. Using Bell#23, my wife says there is no more snoring or stoppage of breathing. It is such a joy to be able to roll to left or right with no hose or mask to deal with. Thank you Bell for a great relief. I suggest anyone with these problems to try it. You will be overjoyed with the results. Wayne Burse, 63, Beamsville, ON.

songs... it’s feel good music.” The following events will be June 26 with Cold, Cold Heart and August 23 with Wheat in the Barley, which also starts at 6 p.m. in Douglas Park. Now in it’s third official year, the dances grew out of an annual picnic, Weibelzahl notes. “It started as a community picnic,” she said. “We always had a band at that, so that’s where it started.” The event still has that community feel, but the focus is on coming together to listen to music, dance and enjoy the company of

others. “There will be lots of games, bubbles, a [beverage/snack] concession stand and that kind of thing,” Weibelzahl noted. “The concession helps to support paying for the bands.” Everyone is welcome and according to Weibelzahl, the weather looks promising for an evening of music and dancing in the park. “Bring a picnic blanket, a picnic, or a lawn chair,” she said. It’s supposed to be nice on Friday, it should clear up.”

There’s no need to dance at home when you can dance outside with friends at Friday’s Boppin’ in the Park.

Squirrels nabbing tulip bulbs In the Garden by Anne Marrison

Anne Marrison is happy to answer garden questions. Send them to amarrison@shaw.ca

Dear Anne,

When my tulip leaves have turned yellow in June, can I take them up and keep them in the house? Could I put them in sand or sawdust and then replant them in the fall and add some sand under the bulb? Oh, I have to tell you how I saved my bulbs from being dug up by squirrels. I planted a garlic clove above. Not a single bulb was dug up this year.

the holes can fill up with water in long, days of hard rain. Your idea for protecting tulip bulbs by planting garlic is so worth trying. I have immense problems with squirrels. Besides munching on tulips and crocuses, they sometimes eat my Christmas cactus during long dry summers.

Dear Anne,

We have several blueberry bushes – all doing well except one. The white flowers look fine early on. Then half turn red and never develop. Some berries do develop. Gerda, E-mail

Heidi, E-mail

Yes, tulips can be taken up when the leaves have died back and stored inside absolutely dry. I’d choose sand for storage, because it would repel moisture better than sawdust. Inside storage is the method old-time gardeners always used for tulips. Some sand under the bulb should help drainage in normal soil. But this may not suceed if you have heavy clay because

the centre of the flowers produces a little hard lump which falls off? These may be grey or black. The best way to deal with this is to gather up all these tiny ‘berries’ from under the bush after you harvest your good berries. Garbage these mummyberries. Then mulch around this blueberry bush with about an inch and a half (four centimetres) of composted bark mulch. This should seal in any spores which are dormant in the top layer of soil. These could be released next spring during windy, wet weather to infest your bush again. You might want to check your other bushes in case they are getting started with mummy-berry as well. Your problem bush could have begun infecting them – and they, in turn, could reinfect your vulnerable bush.

same time as split fruit. The dark green colour may show you’ve been using high-nitrogen fertilizer. High nitrogen encourages, large, healthy leaves but reduces the fruit harvest. If you’ve not been using high-nitrogen fertilizer, the cause could be soil which is already rich in nitrogen. For instance, people often use high-nitrogen fertilizer to produce big harvests of leafy crops such as lettuce or cabbage – and the effect can linger for a while.

Dear Anne,

The leaves on our tomato plant are dark green and curling up. What is our problem?

It looks as if berries started to form but didn’t fill out properly. At least one looks as if it has turned black. I believe your blueberry may have mummy-berry. This is a very common fungal disease in B.C. due to our rainy weather. Mummy-berry spores are spread by wind and rain. Have you noticed that

Junior A lacrosse

Jr. Thunder bounced by visiting Adanacs

The league-leading Coquitlam Adanacs pulled away by scoring the only four goals of the third period Tuesday at the Langley Events Centre. by Troy Landreville

tlandreville@langleyadvance.com

The Langley Jr. Thunder went step-for-step with the B.C. Junior A Lacrosse League-leading Coquitlam Adanacs Tuesday at the Langley Events Centre. For two periods, anyway. During what turned out to be a chippy third period, the Adanacs pulled away, scoring four unanswered goals to transform an 8-7

lead into a 12-7 victory. “I was a lot happier with our second period than I was our first,” Jr. Thunder head coach Jake Elliott said. “I thought we played hard. They [the Adanacs] are a good team and that was their best lineup, and that was far from our best, so I was pretty happy with our first 40 minutes.” The loss put an end to the Jr. Thunder’s three-game win streak. The Jr. Thunder trailed 3-1 after the first period but had a 6-5 edge in goals during the middle frame to trail by one heading into the second intermission. Arguably, the game shifted in the Adanacs’ favour roughly five minutes after Coquitlam’s

Age divisions included 5-7, 8-9, 10-11, 12-14, and adults (15-plus) as well as relay teams. This year’s competition served as a fundraiser for Douglas Park Community School.

Brandon Bull scored a hat trick and one assist in a losing effort for the Jr. Thunder. Sean Lundstrom added a pair with single goals off the sticks of Brett Dobray (who added three assists) and Rahe. Messenger and Neufeld had matching hat tricks for the Adanacs, who improved to a league-best 13-3 on the season. The Jr. Thunder’s record fell to 11-7 with the loss. The team sits alone in second place in the BCJALL standings behind the Adanacs and league co-leaders, the New Westminster Salmonbellies (13-4). The local juniors will look to rebound from the loss on Saturday, when they visit Victoria’s Bear Mountain Arena to play the 10-6 Shamrocks. After that comes a much-needed break in the Jr. Thunder’s schedule. After Saturday, the Jr. Thunder won’t play again until next Thursday, July 4, when it hosts the Delta Islanders at the LEC, starting at 8 p.m. The rest should benefit a Jr. Thunder squad that continues to struggle with injuries. Among the walking wounded are former MPV Reegan Comeault, rookie sensation Johnny Pearson, defensive leader Zack Porter, and speedy defender Nathan Henare. “Hopefully everybody will be back and healthy come playoff time,” Elliott said.

Mustangs run and throw to success at senior nationals Locals put forth standout efforts at the Canadian championships. Langley athletes stood out at the 2013 Canadian track and field championships, which wrapped up last weekend at Moncton Stadium in Moncton, N.B. The meet featured a number of outstanding performances by athletes who are attempting to secure their spots on the International Association of Athletics Federation (IAAF) World Championship team. Local standouts Kyle Nielsen and Robbie Gallaugher are halfway there by placing in the top three at the Canadian championships. In a test of toughness in the javelin competition, Nielsen out-threw former Olympian Curtis Moss while defending his national title with a winning throw of 76.23 metres. In the long jump Gallaugher set not only a personal best, but a club record with his bronze medal leap of 7.62 metres. Both athletes have achieved top three placings, but have until July 29, 2013 to achieve the necessary standard to qualify for the world championships held in Moscow, Russia, Aug. 10-18. Nielsen is pleased with his performance but knows what it takes to return to the world stage. “Stoked on the win, but the icing on the cake would be a standard for worlds,” he said. “I know it’s there – [it’s] just a matter of everything coming together at

Karen Lepine of the Langley Curling Club was recently named the Curl BC Female Adult Athlete of the Year, and her team won Master Curler Team of the Year. “I was so surprised when I heard the news,” Lepine said as she received the award at the annual Curl BC Business of Curling Symposium Banquet on June 8. “I’ve had an amazing three-decade experience in the world of curling and this tops the cake.” Lepine won gold at both the 2013 Tim Hortons B.C. senior curling championships and the 2013 B.C. masters curling championships. Despite breaking her arm at the senior national event in Summerside, P.E.I., “I was so she continued to curl for the rest of the season, including surprised when I travelling to Thunder Bay, heard the news.” Ont., for the national masKaren Lepine ters championship. Her masters team also included Lorraine Jeffries (Port Alberni), Carol Martel (Vernon), and Agnes Sigurdson (Langley). She had good company at the national senior championship, as her husband Craig Lepine skipped his men’s team to victory at the 2013 Tim Hortons B.C. senior curling championships, as well. “Who knew that we would go on to stand beside my husband’s B.C. senior men’s team, and be the first couple to compete at a Canadian championship at the same time?” Lepine said. Karen started curling in 1981, and it was love at first rock. That love grew when she met her future husband and fellow curler Craig two years later. It’s been a successful relationship both on and off the ice, with the couple winning three provincial mixed curling championships (1996, 2000, and 2002). Karen was also the 2003 B.C. senior women’s champion, losing a heartbreaker in an extra end in the national championship final. Craig went to the Brier as B.C. men’s champion in 1990.

Lepine’s home club, the Langley Curling Club, was also awarded Curling Centre of the Year, in recognition of its service to the curling community. In addition to the Lepines’ championship teams, the club was home to junior curlers from the winning 2013 Tim Hortons B.C. junior men’s curling championship team, and the 2013 B.C. mixed doubles champions. In accepting the Curl BC Curling Centre of the Year award on behalf of the Langley Curling Club, club president Linda Horvath had this to say, after receiving the award at the June 8 banquet: “This is truly a great honour. This award is dedicated to our volunteers, our past president, Allison Paxton, and of course, our manager, Nigel Easton, who have all had a hand in creating a club that is so inviting to both the social and competitive curler.”

Rivermen deal Butcher Ben Butcher heads east to play for his older brother Matt’s alma mater, the Chilliwack Chiefs. by Tyler Olsen

Glacier Media

The Chilliwack Chiefs added youth and size up front last week by acquiring another forward with ties to the junior A hockey team. The Chiefs acquired Ben Butcher from the Langley Rivermen in exchange for future considerations. The 6’2” Butcher scored 10 goals and recorded 18 points in his rookie season with the Rivermen last season.

Butcher is 18, with three years of B.C. Hockey League eligibility remaining. He is the younger brother of former Chilliwack captain Matt Butcher, who scored 183 points over three seasons for the Chiefs between 2003 and 2006. Their father is former NHLer Garth Butcher, who played for the Vancouver Canucks, St. Louis Blues, Quebec Nordiques, and Toronto Maple Leafs. “I am very excited to have the opportunity to play in Chilliwack,” Ben Butcher said. “My brother loved it there, I can’t wait to put on the Chiefs jersey.” Chilliwack head coach and general manager Harvey Smyl said: “Ben has very good skills, a strong work ethic and can be very difficult to play against.”

HANNESSON, Kelly Lynne

(Nee Smith) July 29, 1962 - June 23, 2013 It is with deepest sorrow, we announce the passing of Kelly Lynne Hannesson. Kelly battled cancer courageously, but in the end as always, she thought of her family. She let go “for them.” Kelly leaves behind her beloved husband Dale, her kids Kacy, Tori and Adam, as well, too many other loving family and friends to list. Join us at Redwoods Golf Course on July 1, 2013 from 2 to 5 p.m. to begin the new chapter of “Kelly’s Journey.” In lieu of ﬂowers, please make donations to the Abbotsford Regional Hospital, Palliative Care Unit.

JOHNSTON (WILLS), Nellie Adeline (nee Chadwick) May 15, 1921 - June 15, 2013

Our loving mother and grandmother Nellie passed away with June, Tammy, and Kelly at her bedside. She is survived by her 4 children: June Smith (Russ), Dorothy Sharp, Pat Lees (Ron) and Wilma Wills. Nellie leaves behind 13 grandchildren, 28 greatgrandchildren, and many nieces, nephews, great-great-grandchildren and friends. A big thank you to Lorraine for always being there to help with Nellie at any time of the day or night. The family would also like to thank the staff at the Langley Senior Centre for all the good times Nellie had there, especially painting ceramics. Born in Hazelmere to Edith and Archibald, she was a longtime member of the Isabella Rebekah Lodge#10 where she received the Decoration of Chivalry and 65 years award. Nellie’s wish was to stay at home, and with the help of June and Bayshore Home Health she was able to live at home with her pet and friend Henry. There will be no Service by Nellie’s request.

NOVEMBER 9, 1949 – JUNE 17, 2013 It is with profound sadness we announce that Craig James Davies,63,of Chilliwack, BC,passed away on June 17,2013 after a short but courageous battle with cancer. Craig was born to the late Arthur and Dorothy Davies in New Westminster, BC on November 9, 1949. Growing up as an Air Force brat, he lived with his family in Bagotville, Quebec; Zweibrucken, Germany; and Gimli and Winnipeg, Manitoba. Craig flourished growing up in these very diverse places, was a role model for his little sister Bonnie, making friends instantly and almost as instantly learning to communicate in French and German. He graduated from Gimli High School and continued on to receive a diploma from Red River College in Winnipeg, Manitoba. As an adult he moved to Langley, BC where he raised his family and lived for many years before moving on to Lindell Beach and then Garrison Crossing Chilliwack. He was very proud of the years he spent coaching hockey for his two sons and many, many other young hockey players in Langley. Craig met his wife Kathy Davies (O’Brien) and they began their life together in 2000.They married on November 18, 2008 on a quiet beach in Hawaii.Together Craig and Kate enjoyed renovating and decorating their homes, creating beautiful gardens entertaining friends and travelling abroad and in Canada. Craig was the owner of Design One, a graphic design studio in Langley for 35 years. He was very well respected in the Langley business community and was awarded the distinction of Business Person of the Year in 2011. Craig gave willingly of his time and expertise in various volunteer roles during the many years he spent in Langley, and was a dedicated member of the Downtown Langley Business Association. He had an amazing talent for photography, particularly black and white, and recently enjoyed sharing his photographic adventures on his blog, www.thethingsisee.ca He was enamored with travelling in general, but had a real passion for France where he visited often. Craig had many interests and was a collector of rare and first edition books, Canadian stamps, local artwork and antique bottles, to name just a few. Craig was a gifted conversationalist and genuinely loved people.He had a unique capacity to connect and made an impact on everyone who knew him. He was kind, generous and had a keen sense of fairness. He was a strong leader and a perfectionist. Those who knew him well will recall these common Craigisms – “Don’t poke the bear” and “ If it’s not perfect, it’s S**t”. Craig was predeceased by his stepson Corey, and is survived by his two sons from his first marriage to Bev Davies (Maly): Garth Davies and his wife Deborah, and Grant Davies and his wife Terri-Lee. Craig is also survived by his sister Bonnie Davies and her husband William; his Aunt Bonnie Howe and her husband Don; his four grandchildren Adam, Royce, Leila, and Keeley; and will be sorely missed by the rest of his relatives and friends. In lieu of flowers, the family is requesting that donations be made to the Canadian Cancer Society. A Celebration of Life will be held at 11:00 AM on Thursday, July 4, 2013 at Cascades Casino Hotel & Convention Centre in Langley.
