Eager hopes for end to strike Langley parents are optimistic after this week’s breakthrough in B.C.’s public education labour dispute. by Troy Landreville
tlandreville@langleyadvance.com
In the wee hours of Tuesday, Sept. 16, news broke of a tentative labour deal being reached between the union representing B.C. teachers and the government. And Langley parents were excited about the prospect of school starting up again. The announcement came in at about 4 a.m. of a tentative agreement struck between the BC Teachers’ Federation (BCTF) and the BC Public School Employers’ Association (BCPSEA). Roughly 41,000 teachers across B.C. will be able to vote today, Sept. 18, on the contract. Deanna Davies, mom to Fort Langley Elementary students Jessica, who is about to enter Grade 4, and Kaitlyn, ready to go into Grade 2, hopes the strike is about to end. “I’m thrilled, and they would be, too, because they want to go to school right now,” Davies said. “They want to go to school and they need to be learning. I would forfeit the $80 [compensation] I’m getting [from the B.C. government] to get them back to school, any day. I just want them back in school.” Olivia Ireland has two daughters attending James Kennedy Elementary School. Her old-

Family Fun Day
Firefighters focus fun on charity funding Firefighters’ Family Fun Day at Krause Farm took off like wildfire. More than 3,000 people headed to Krause Berry Farms and Estate Winery on 248th Street in Langley on Sunday to enjoy the firefighter-themed fun day. It was organized in support of the Township of Langley Firefighters’ Charitable Society (TLFCS ). “It was a lot of fun working with the Krause team to put this event together,” said TLFCS director Jhim Burwell. “In the end, what we were able to do was let a big part of the community know what the Township of Langley Firefighters’ Charities is all about, and do some fundraising that will support our benevolent initiatives which help local organizations.” The TLFCS added a number of activities to the festivities the community enjoys at Krause Berry Farms and Estate Winery: including bouncy castles, a dunk tank, firefighter activities, and by acting as servers of Krause’s famous berry waffles. They also enhanced the atmosphere by bringing JRfm’s events team in, and arranging live performances by country music sensation Austin Belle. As a grand finale to the day, six firefighters faced off in an epic Krause-berry-pieeating contest. Burwell added, “In the end the day was such a success that we are already talking about next year’s event.” The TLFCS acknowledged the support received from Krause Berry Farms & Estate

Teacher labour dispute
Teachers to vote on a six-year contract Schools will remain behind pickets until the contract is approved by teachers. by Heather Colpitts hcolpitts@langleyadvance.com
The Langley School District is still finalizing plans on when the kids are back in class. The district sent out a letter Tuesday telling parents that pickets remain at schools until teachers ratify the proposed contract. The vote is today, Sept. 18. “As soon as this information becomes available, it will be shared with our community,” wrote superintendent Suzanne Hoffman. “Parents, staff and students have been anxiously awaiting the news of movement

towards an agreement and I know all are eager to be back in schools.” People are advised to keep track of the district website, as well as its social media for updates. The Langley Advance post details online when available. B.C. Premier Christy Clark said teachers will get a “fair” wage increase that won’t cause the province to go into debt. On Tuesday afternoon she and Education Minister Peter Fassbender spoke. “We have reached an historic six year agreement with teachers,” Clark said. She said that will provide for some years of labour peace, versus the old model of almost constant negotiation and conflict. She said it will give both sides “five years in which we can sit
and talk.” “A negotiated settlement was really important because it allows us to reset that dysfunctional relationship,” Clark noted. The government would not provide specifics on what’s in the new deal because “trustees and teachers need to see it and teachers need to vote on it,” the Premier said. “We did find a way to give teachers a fair raise,” Clark said. The deal with also provide for more teaching supports and improved class composition. “We found a way to do it without raising taxes and cutting services and going into deficit,” she said. She thanked all sides, particularly parents and students. “They had the patience to allow this dispute to be settled

in a negotiated settlement,” she said. “The key for me now is how to we move ahead,” Fassbender said. In response to questions, Clark explained that the deal does not alter the court issues. “The court case is going to continue,” she said. BC Teachers Federation president Jim Iker said the union executive is recommending members ratify the deal. “It was a tough series of negotiations,” he said. Iker thanked all those who supported teachers and also thanked his members. “You stood up for what you believe in,” he said to teachers. “You stood up for your rights. Be proud that your effort made a real difference.”

a company,” she said. “Simply because my feeling is, if you get that kind of donation, eventually there will be payback time, and I don’t want to be beholden to anybody. But if the people want me to run, then show me.” The municipal election is Nov. 15, and candidates have between Sept. 30 and Oct. 10 to file their nomination papers. “I feel as though I have a lot to offer,” Ettenberg said. “I also feel that I have a decent reputation in the community for advocating for people, and standing up for people, and for listening to people. And I’m not afraid to talk; I’m not afraid to go against the crowd a little bit.” Ettenberg is developing
her political platform. “I want to listen to what the people want,” she said. “That’s the most important thing.” She opposes the Brookswood/Fernridge Community plan, which would increase density in some areas and increase the population there from 13,500 to about 42,000, by Township estimates. During a public meeting in May, she said, “I have real concerns that we will lose all the things that we hold dear.” Ettenberg feels Brookswood residents should sit on the committee, so they can decide the future of their own neighbourhoods.

A Trinity Western University dean will seek a seat on Langley Township council this year. Blair Whitmarsh is the dean of the School of Human Kinetics and Athletics at TWU. Whitmarsh said the theme of his campaign is “Working together for Langley,”
and said one of the prime duties of council is to raise community involvement. “We must hear from the community as we make critical decisions that affect all of us,” said Whitmarsh. The prof arrived in Langley 30 years ago as a student at TWU. He says he fell in love with the community and has been active here for most of that time since, working and raising his family. Whitmarsh has worked as a professor at TWU since 1996 and has been the dean of the School of Human Kinetics and Athletics since 2005. He also helped in the design and development of the Langley Events Centre, in which TWU was a partner.

Ultimate prize awarded
There were plenty of winners, including one big one, from the Langley Good Times Cruise-In. by Roxanne Hooper rhooper@langleyadvance.com
Kevin Forshner has only lived in his Sechelt home since February, and has yet to build a garage. But the 54-year-old car buff came closer to realizing his vision of a dream shop at the recent Langley Good Times Cruise-In. With the purchase of three tickets for
the Lordco Ultimate Garage Giveaway – a mere $25 investment – he walked away with about $20,000 worth of brand new tools and shop equipment that any car aficionado – including himself – would appreciate. “I’m ecstatic,” he said, moments after hearing his name called out at the end of the annual car show. “I have tools, but I don’t have all the tools. Now... Wow!” he said. The win has definitely accelerated Forshner’s plans to build a two-car garage on his half-acre property overlooking the Sechelt peninsula.

Deal could use more respect
We are pleased – as everyone should be – that an apparent agreement has been reached and preparations are getting underway to get B.C. children back into classrooms as quickly as possible. But it was hard to suppress a few guffaws as we listened to announcements about the deal from both sides of what became an unnecessarily long and bitter dispute between the adults in whose trust we have placed the education of our children. And by that, we mean not just the teachers, but the politicians who are supposed to set this province’s education policies with the best interests of our children in mind. Indeed, that “best interests of the children” phrase was one that had us nearly choking as we listened to Premier Christy Clark and Education Minister Peter Fassbender, and then BC Teachers’ Federation president Jim Iker, speak of the “dedicated leadership” it took on both sides to reach this “important” agreement. Clark credited the “patience” of parents and the public in general with “giving us the space” to reach a reasonable conclusion to the dispute. Patience? Truly, we didn’t see much of that. There was certainly plenty of anger and frustration, some outrage, and maybe a certain amount of resignation… but patience? If that’s how Clark and all the others interpreted the general mood of the populace, perhaps it explains the rancour they appeared to feel was acceptable, while children lost weeks of schooling. Maybe if they had all interpreted the public’s mood more accurately, the dispute would have been settled when it should have been: many months ago. While in the end they may have mutually decided to pay lip service to respecting each other, the patronizing commentary from both sides of the settlement show that neither has a great deal of respect for the people they’re all supposed to serve. – B.G.

Religion
Complexity big part of Christianity
Dear Editor, Travis Erbacher seems bent on maligning all Jews, Christians, and Muslims [Women’s rights beyond Christian reach, Aug. 19 Letters, Langley Advance]. By constructing an ugly personal indictment of the world’s monolithic religions, and possibly half the community he lives in, he reveals a sad intolerance. Christianity receives his most virulent attack, stating that our beliefs are centred on fundamental immorality, and leaves us as worms at the disposal of a tyrant. It’s easy to criticize that which we don’t understand; perhaps he should become acquainted with more than just a few handpicked passages of the Bible’s Old Testament. If I were to use select passages from the Quran out of context to judge all Muslims as terrorists, surely I would only display ignorance of and bias against that faith – hardly
acts of enlightenment. It might be productive for Mr. Erbacher to talk to a Jewish scholar or Rabbi about the different genres of Hebrew literature in the centuries before Christ. For example, just as few Jewish scholars see the apocalyptic writings in the Talmud as wholly literal, neither do most Christians reading similar language in the book of Revelation. For Christians, Jesus is considered to be the ultimate expression of God’s will and His relationship to man. His teachings to love our neighbours and reach out to the poor and needy are at the heart of the message He died for, contrary to Mr. Erbacher’s interpretation of our faith. In regard to the evils committed, Jesus predicted there would be those who do such things in His name, but was clear that His message to them will be, “Depart from Me, I never
Environment
Global warming lucrative con
Dear Editor, Here we go again with eco-alarmist abuse of taxes: another useless UN climate summit junket, this time in New York, Sept 23. Nothing has ever been accomplished at these conferences, and there is another one next year in Paris. Some 20 to 40,000 attendees from 178 countries participate in these rituals, mostly paid by us tax-suckers. Imagine the travel cost, never mind the carbon footprint on the planet they are all there to save. Ever wonder how many billions of dollars have been wasted on junkets that have occurred since green activists met in Rio 22 years ago? Can you picture them on the poolside, high-fiving with their pina coladas in hand, soaking up the sun laughing at how great global warming has been to them? Global warming has not happened. Roland Seguin, Langley
knew you.” Often it was Christians standing against those misrepresenting Christ’s teaching who were the persecuted. History reveals countless examples of Christians having active involvement in progressive movements; whether it be helping multitudes of slaves escape to freedom through the Underground Railroad, women who championed the suffragette lobby for the right to vote, African American church groups who worked with the civil rights movement, or the life-changing work done by groups like the Salvation Army. I guess some people live up to the ideals of the Christian faith more than others. The fact is, due to varied ethnicity, customs, or interpretation of their sacred writings, most religions, not just Christian, are a mosaic of many groups with often differing beliefs on a wide array of issues. For example, not all Christians believe the same in regards to things like abortion or understanding of hell. People of faith are far more complicated than some choose to believe, and the world is a bigger place than Mr. Erbacher’s stated version of it. D. K.

Take a spin around Langley to witness local artists doing what they do best – creating art of all kinds.
Langley resident Ed Pretty, with some of his art pieces, has been a wood turner since his father originally taught him the craft of spindle turning when Pretty was nine years old. Pretty will have his work on display as part of the sixth annual Langley Arts Studio Tour, which runs this weekend, Sept. 20 and 21, and next, Sept. 27 and 28.

ach year, art enthusiasts have the opportunity to witness first-hand what Langley-area artists create by visiting them on site, in their studios. The sixth annual Langley Art Studio Tour runs the weekends of September 20, 21 and 27, 28. Designed as a way for the public to see how artists work and where, this year’s tour features more than 40 artists. Many open their personal studios for the tour and invite fellow artists to “set up shop” with them for visitors to come by, watch, explore, and ask questions. Some artists even offer demos, special pricing, class discounts, and free draws. Each location is easy to find with the art tour signs marking the locations. A new artist on the tour this year is Langley resident Ed Pretty. He has been a wood turner since his father originally taught him the craft of spindle turning, when Pretty was nine years old.

There are 25 suggested stops throughout the Langleys and due to the distances, they can’t all be covered in one day.

One of Langley’s most anticipated events is the Fraser Valley Cork and Keg Wine and Beer Festival. Now in its fourth year, the festival will see a bit more space for guests to move, mingle, and chat with each other and wine makers and brew masters. Organizer Kristine Carrick noted the number of tickets available has dropped to 400 from previous years’ levels to allow for more elbow room for patrons. “We’ve actually chosen to reduce the number of ticket sales this year,” Carrick said. “We wanted to create more room this year and allow our guests more room to chat to the wine makers and brew masters.” With the reduced number of tickets available, those planning to go should order their tickets online before Friday at www.corkandkeg.ca, although there may be a limited amount of tickets

The fourth annual Cork and Keg Festival is set to go this Friday evening. Each year organizers tweek the event for the patrons who get to enjoy tastings of beer, wine and spirits, as well as gourmet treats. available at the door of the Cascades Casino just prior to the event. Local fish monger One Fish Two Fish is again providing an oyster bar (while supplies last) and Carrick said this year also features the ability to pre-order beer or wine that may be a particular favourite. “If you find a B.C. based beer or win you like, you can pre-order it,” she said. “You don’t have to order a case, you can order by the bottle.”
With more than 300 wine, beer, and spirits to taste, there’s bound to be something to love and want more of. But the event isn’t just about sampling, it’s also about supporting local. “We’re celebrating community with our support of the Langley Community Farmers’ market,” Carrick said. “They will be there too, and as in past years, part of the proceeds will be donated back to the farmers market.”
A wide range of food, beer, and wine vendors will be on hand with everything from desserts to drinks. Maple Ridge’s Bite Me Desserts, Dirty Laundry Vineyard, Mission Springs Brewing, and dozens of others will all be on hand in the festive celebration of local and all things delicious. The $65 ticket price includes the evening’s live entertainment and all tastings.

Langley dominates in Comedy benefitting suicide prevention efforts country music shortlist
A
few names keep coming up again and again as the finalists in the B.C. Country Music Association’s annual awards for best of everything – from songwriting through to production. The shortlist for the October awards was released Friday and there is a reoccurring theme, said former Langleyite and fellow nominee Linda Corscadden. Langley’s own Chad Brownlee, Dallas Smith, Aaron Pritchett, Karen Lee Batten, and Me & Mae’s names pop up again and again in multiple categories. With only five finalists selected in each of the categories, Corscadden pointed out that Langley contenders almost shut out all other musicians, whether it’s for album or song of the year, or video, website, or single of 2014. Other locals in the running include Trevor Murray, Mitch Merrett, Scott Cooke, and Smith of Smith & Jones. The BCCMA winners will be announced at a special awards show at Hard Rock Casino in Coquitlam on Oct. 19 [tickets available at 604-533-5088].

Dale Einarson and cafe manager Naomi Lippett are launching a monthly series featuring big name musicians in an intimate setting. by Roxanne Hooper
rhooper@mrtimes.com
T
wo self-proclaimed music-lovers came together almost by fluke one day in a Walnut Grove cafe, never realizing their shared vision for promoting the arts in Langley would soon blossom into a new concert series. Back in mid-June, the Water Shed Arts Cafe on 88th Avenue introduced a new menu and store manager Naomi Lippett decided to promote a baked potato giveaway through social media. The first five people to post won one of the cafe’s infamous “jacket potatoes.” Dale Einarson was the first to reply. He had been coming into the cafe for a couple of months at that point – mainly for coffee, but occasionally for meals. “I fell in love with the place,” he said, drawn to the independent spirit and the efforts being made to promote both visual and audible artists. “I liked the vibe of the place,” said the recent transplant from Atlantic Canada, who had been heavily involved behind the scenes in music for several decades before moving west last year. While the long-time music promoter was keen to remain active in the music industry, he had been struggling to find an appropriate venue to hold small, intimate concerts. When he came into the cafe a few days later to collect his prize – namely the deluxe stuffed baked potato – a huge chat with Lippett ensued that covered everything from spirituality to community, and – of course – music. “I didn’t get my potato – they sold out – but we had a good conversation,” Einarson recounted. They realized there was a synergy between them, and they developed a vision to turn the 65-seat cafe into a tiny music mecca. The idea is to host a monthly StoneHouse Concert Series featuring high-calibre blues, rock, country, Americana, and alternative musicians from Canada – and eventually the United States, they explained. “The idea is to bring people from farther away and take the musical nights down a new road from what it was before,” Einarson said, acknowledging that jam nights and current music evening featuring up-and-coming artists will remain an important part of the Water Shed fibre. However, they sought to create a feeling similar to the Gaslight coffeehouse in New York’s Greenwich Village that was made famous during the 1960s by hosting musicians such as Bob Dylan. “It’s not going to cost them $300, like it would cost at Rogers Arena,” Einarson said, noting that depending on the artist coming to the Water Shed, it will likely cost guests $10 to $15 to attend. There will be no pre-sold tickets, Lippet said, explaining that the hope is to build hype around the monthly events that are expected to feature some of the nation’s best musicians in an up-close-and-personal environment where guests can reach out and shake hands and chat with the musicians, and really feel their music. First up is award-winning Canadian blues guitarist, singer, songwriter, and band leader David Gogo, who is performing at the Water Shed on Friday, at 7:30 p.m. “Who would have thought so much would come from a potato?” Einarson concluded.

Millions of small acts.
One big win for our environment. By Scott Fraser President & CEO of Encorp Pacific (Canada)
The success of our system for recycling beverage containers proves that millions of small acts can add up to a big win for the environment. Whether it s aluminum cans, juice boxes, cartons, or glass and plastic bottles, if you are a typical BC resident, you probably generate four or mve empty beverage containers a week. That doesn t sound like a lot, but do the math and it adds up to hundreds of millions of empty beverage containers a year that would end up in the landmll, if British Columbians like you hadn t returned those containers for recycling. In fact, last year almost 1 billion used beverage containers were returned for deposit and processed into new products. That includes more than 360 million aluminum cans, 338 million plastic bottles, 195 million glass bottles and 71 million drink boxes and cartons. In total nearly 100,000 metric tons of material was kept out of BC s landmlls. If you mnd it hard to imagine what that means, then consider that it is the equivalent weight of 60,000 midsized cars. That s right, the equivalent of 60,000 cars was removed from BC s landmlls, a few cans, bottles and cartons at a time. But that s not the only benemt for BC. Recycling empty containers uses less energy than producing new ones.
The equivalent of 60,000 cars was removed from BC’s landfills, a few cans, bottles and cartons at a time. For example, used aluminum cans are turned into new cans, a process that uses only 5% of the energy it takes to make new aluminum. Drink boxes and cartons are pulped and made into tissue and cardboard, saving 17 trees for every ton of paper mber produced. Plastic bottles are 100 percent recyclable for use in new plastic containers, and glass bottles are made into new bottles and sandblasting material. As a result, the recycling of beverage containers contributed to a reduction of 135,000 tons of carbon dioxide that otherwise would have gone into BC s atmosphere. Keeping with the driving theme, that s the equivalent of taking 39,000 cars off the road in BC every year. BC has one of the highest beverage container recycling rates in North America last year 80
Nearly 100,000 metric tons of material was kept out of BC’s landfills. percent of all beverage containers sold in BC were returned and recycled. One reason for the high recovery rate is the many options that British Columbians have for returning their containers. The Return-It network of over 170 depots across the province is the heart of the system, collecting over 90 percent of recycled containers. Their share of returns continues to grow, in part because today s depots are consumer friendly, clean, bright and open with large sorting tables. It is also because today many depots accept a wide range of products for recycling, making them a convenient one-stop location for your recycling needs. For example, over 90 percent of Return-It Depots accept consumer electronics, like computers, TVs and printers, for recycling. Many also accept small appliances, paint, light bulbs and more. For hotels, ofmces, restaurants and multi-family buildings, many Return-It Depots and specialized mobile collectors offer a pick-up program, primarily in the Metro Vancouver area. If you live in a townhouse, condominium or apartment, look for the Encorp or Return-It branded collection bins in the garbage or recycling area of your building. ADVERTORIAL
For recycling on the go , you may have noticed blue beverage container bins in various neighbourhoods in the City of Vancouver. These bins are non-locking and designed to be self-serviced by residents or people wanting to receive the deposit refund attached to the containers deposited in the bins. This successful program is now expanding to other Metro Vancouver areas and to towns around BC. Even with this extensive system, though, BC would not have one of the highest recycling rates in North America without consumers making the decision to do the right thing for the environment. That amounts to almost 3 million containers a day diverted from landmlls to be made into new products a lot of small acts adding up to a lot of good for BC.

Fort Langley
Weekend focuses on the arts
Poetry, music, dance and enjoying it with others are at the core of an arts celebration. by Ronda Payne news@langleyadvance.com
The arts means different things to different people. For some, it’s singing and dancing. Others think of crafts and poetry. Fort Langley will be celebrating it all at the third annual Celebration of the Arts this weekend. The move to the third weekend in September is hoped by organizers to attract even larger audiences, but with the same calibre of performances, according to David James, the chair of the Fort Langley Celebration of the Arts committee. “We held the first two celebrations on holiday weekends, when people were away doing many things,” James noted. “This [change in timing] is a strategy to boost the audience numbers.” Kicking things off Friday night at 7 p.m. are Marcel and Elizabeth Bergmann, who have been part of the celebration since the first year, with Kwantlen First Nation adding to the mix at the Fort Langley Community Hall. Saturday rolls into a wide range of children’s activities, such as
beading, arts and crafts, and drum lessons offered by Kwantlen First Nation, free of charge, at 10:30 a.m. A full weekend of activities is a lot to organize by a group of dedicated volunteers. “We are a committee of the Fort Langley Community Improvement Association (FLCIA),” James said of the people behind the event. “We are very grateful to them [the FLCIA] as they have gone above and beyond to get things ready with the stage and the hall. They have been just amazing. The celebration committee is a group of very, very industrious

and cooperative people. I feel very fortunate to work with them.” For poetry lovers, Lindi Nolte and Company put on an afternoon of poetry at 2:30 by donation and the Willie MacCalder Band takes the stage for a community dance starting at 8 p.m. Expect everything from traditional music to boogie-woogie and barrelhouse to keep everyone in the hall jumping. Sunday has a jam-packed schedule, with the five-person 1659 Baroque Ensemble at 3 p.m., Jodi Proznick and Friends performing jazz at 6 p.m., a salmon barbeque at 7:15 p.m., and the closing ceremony by the Kwantlen First Nation at 8:15 p.m. free of charge. When asked why the committee works so hard to put the event on, James answered, “Because we’re continuing a tradition established over the last two years of presenting a very high level of performance… and audiences have loved it.” Event prices vary. Tickets can be purchased at Wendels and Euphoria Chocolates. “On Saturday, particularly, the tourist information kiosk in front of the hall will have tickets there as well. If people buy four tickets, they get a fifth one of their choice for free,” James noted.

Pedal power was put into motion during the Country Celebration in South Langley last weekend. The 36th annual late summer fair took place over two days, Saturday and Sunday, Sept. 13-14, at Campbell Valley Regional Park. The sound for the entertainment stage was run by deep-cycle batteries that were
charged through solar panels, wind turbines, and visitors who volunteered to help out by pedaling bicycles. Although it would take 13 bicycles running constantly, producing an average of 120 watts/hour to run a 1,500 watt stage, every little bit counts, noted Green Power Events, which hosted the unique display. The country fair combined nature, heritage, agriculture and community. Activities included dance and music performances, stilt walking, hula hoop workshops, kite-making, milking demonstrations, a llama obstacle course, a farmers’ market, displays featuring several dozen vendors, and activities for kids.

Box blight spreading from England Dear Anne,
“I have several boxwoods which I hope will grow together and make a small hedge one day. Most of them have some part of the bush now turning orange in colour. It started last year and is getting worse. I can’t see any bugs or webs on the bush. What is wrong, please?”

Dear Anne, Anne Marrison is happy to answer garden questions. Send them to amarrison@shaw.ca
In the Garden
Pat Pryce, Maple Ridge
range leaves are a symptom of the fungal disease boxwood blight. It started in England, moved to the States and is now in B.C. Sad to say, it’s considered incurable. The orange leaves will die and gradually fall off. Meanwhile, more leaves turn orange. Box blight can spread around neighbourhoods by wind and rain (like other fungal diseases). Fungicides can prevent it, but they can also mask it so that a bush may be infected but it seems to be okay. To be successful with fungicides, you have to cover absolutely all the bush: including the stems and undersides of leaves. Unfortunately, box is so dense that that is almost impossible to do. There are other shrubs that might make a good replacement hedge, including Japanese holly (Ilex crenata), an evergreen shrub that produces masses of white flowers followed by black berries. It is very hardy. Dwarf rhododendrons make a lovely hedge. The Yakushimanums usually have pink buds and pink or white flowers. They’re very easy to get.
by Anne Marrison
“My neighbour had a new lawn put in, and there are mushrooms growing here and there near the property line. It is north-facing and not helped by my neighbour’s three-storey house. How can I prevent the mushrooms from spreading onto my side of the yard. There is no fence there.”
I
Soo Chan, Vancouver
t’s very likely that your neighbour’s topsoil contained commercial mushroom compost from a mushroom farm. If so, they’re most unlikely to become established in the neighbour’s lawn or yours. But to be absolutely certain, you could install an edging all the way along the property line. It should be deeper down in your soil than the depth of your neighbour’s new soil. A garden centre would be able to sell you suitable edging.
“Can I stop fertilizing my petunias and geraniums now? They are in containers. I used the Shake and Feed just once when they were planted in May, and they looked gorgeous. Does it just need to be used once a season, as it’s quite expensive?”

Dear Anne,
Cryptomeria japonica (Globosa nana) is a dwarf, very rounded evergreen. Dwarf salal is another possibility. You might want to wait a bit and see how quickly the blight moves. But it has the reputation of being hard to deal with. Sarcocca can also catch it, as can some other boxes, like Buxus microphylla. It can lay dormant in fallen leaves of box for five years.

diverse and unique rocks, crystals, minerals, jewelry and gems. The annual show runs 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sept. 21 and 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. on Sept. 22 at the Old Age Pensioners Hall, 3015 273rd St. Admission is by donation.

LangleyAdvance Dams Ford Lincoln partnered with Douglas Park Community School Society to raise money for the breakfast club – a meal program for under-privileged kids on Saturday, at Langley Mall. I had my choice. I could test drive an F150, Fiesta, Focus, Fusion, CMAX, or even the Lincoln MKC. In turn, Ford donated $20 to the charity. I opted for the Fusion, and volunteer Pete Powers of Brookswood was my tour guide.

• Reduces Fine Lines and Wrinkles • Increases Skin Elasticity • Thickens and Strengthens Hair • Strengthens Nails
Companies help feed the kids
By now you know. Adding body collagen directly reduces wrinkles, increases skin elasticity, and adds vital moisture to your skin. Indirectly, collagen thickens and strengthens your hair. You may also know that collagen production slows by 1% per year after the age of 21. Can you gain it back? Yes. But not by eating collagen. You see, collagen is a protein. When you ingest it, your body breaks it down, like any other protein, and uses it as food. When you want the real beauty benefits of collagen, you have to generate it. BioSil™ generates collagen by activating the collagen producing cells in your body known as fibroblasts. It is clinically proven to increase collagen formation. In fact, in the clinical trial the women taking BioSil™ reduced wrinkles by 30%, increased skin elasticity by 89% and thickened and strengthened their hair by 13% compared to women not taking BioSil™. So when you want genuine visible results from collagen, generate it, don’t eat it. Experience the beautiful difference for yourself!

Instead of taking items home with them from the mall, visitors are asked to bring items that disadvantaged young people can use for graduations. Drop off a cash donation or a gently used grad outfit or accessories at Willowbrook Shopping Centre’s Centre Court by The Body Shop from 9:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Sept. 20 or 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.
on Sept. 21. Willowbrook has come up with a gift and personal style consultation with shopping centre stylist Giovanni Amenta for those who donate (while supplies last). Items most in need are ladies’ fancy jewelry, purses, shawls, dressy shoes, and new or gently used graduation dresses and gowns, as well as men’s suits or tuxedos and dress shoes. The items are provided to young people who couldn’t otherwise afford the fancy gear for one of the biggest milestones of a person’s life.

Triple A group tackling housing

Volunteers are working to ensure that seniors have a range of options to meet their housing needs.
Affordable, accessible and appropriate – is that too much to ask for seniors’ housing? That’s what a two-day workshop on senior housing will address. Housing for older adults today and into the future is vital for the community. Triple A Senior Housing is a group of
senior volunteers who embrace a “planning with seniors, not for seniors” philosophy to ensure that current and future senior housing in the Langleys will include a range of options. The seniors population in Langley is projected to increase by 62 per cent by 2021.
And more than 90 per cent of seniors want to stay in their own homes and community for the rest of their lives. Research done by Triple A Senior Housing highlights why a Senior Housing Summit is necessary.

Fort dragon boaters rock podium in Ravenna
Local women’s dragon boat crews impressed at the world championships in Italy. Fort Langley women’s dragon boat crew members took on the world earlier this month in Ravenna, Italy. From Sept. 3-7, Fast & Furious, Abreast With FORT-itude, and Titanium (a crew consisting of paddlers in the 60-plus age group) competed in Ravenna during the ninth annual World Dragon Boat Championships. This year’s races hosted 27 countries with more than 5,400 participants, and boasted the largest CCWC event ever put on. “The opening ceremonies presented all the clubs in a grand outdoor procession never seen at these races before,” reported Fast & Furious crew member Ann Mohs. As the world’s clubs’ representatives marched out in grand style before thousands of cheering spectators, a flotilla of dragon boats representing each country and carrying their country’s flag joined the celebration on the water.
Three women’s dragon boat crews from Fort Langley got together for a group photo prior to leaving for the world championships in Ravenna, Italy, from Sept. 3-7. Inset below – Competing against several other breast cancer teams, Abreast In A Boat – FORT-itude came home with bronze medals in the 2,000 metre and 500 metre races from the championships. Over the five days, 93 classes of paddlers competed in 1,200 races at this well-organized biannual world event. Canada rocked the podium overall, and the Fort Langley Canoe Club’s team Abreast In A Boat – FORT-itude came home with bronze medals after strong showings in the 2,000 metre and 500 metre races. There were nine breast cancer teams and the competition was very intense.

They fought furiously for their placement in the championship finals and succeeded in securing a place in the grand finals in all of their races. In both the 200 metre sprint and the 500 metre test of grit, Fast & Furious finished among world champions, sixth and eighth best in the world. During the 2,000 metre guts and glory challenge, Fast & Furious drew the No. 1 starting boat and led the way out of the starting gate, with boats following at 15 second intervals, holding off all competitors from passing, and finishing with a ninth best time in their division. Ben Lee who has coached this Fast & Furious team for more than three years, had this to say: “Despite all that was against us in terms of training programs and age, FnF was not out of the pack and even without a decent start or finish all week, managed to be a few seconds out of medal contention. Not bad for a team that has many sick with a cold and sporting their share of injuries and lost paddlers.” At the end of the competitions, Fast & Furious team captain Sandy Ferguson said, “We may not have won a medal but I can assure you that the team gave it everything they had. The best teams in the world were here and we have a lot to be proud of. We definitely put Fort Langley on the world map.”

Charity golf
Golfers step up to tee box for Langley kids The Langley School District Foundation’s ninth annual golf tournament raised more than $80,000 for the Food For Thought campaign.

It was the day of the Langley School District Foundation’s ninth annual golf tournament at The Redwoods Golf Course, a very popular event that attracted 150 golfers and guests, and in so doing raised more than $80,000. Net proceeds go towards the Foundation’s Food For Thought campaign.
A total of 150 golfers took part in the Langley School District Foundation’s ninth annual golf tournament, held Wednesday, Aug. 27 at The Redwoods Golf Course.
“It may surprise you to learn that more than 3,000 children in Langley come to school hungry every single day. They have not had breakfast and they do not have a packed lunch”, Langley School District Foundation executive director Susan Cairns said. “Hungry kids cannot learn. It doesn’t matter how smart they are or how good their teacher is. If they are hungry, they might as well Left to right, Carter Shinkaruk, Maureen Bruce, Rebecca be asleep.

Langley Township is full of wildlife habitat and people share the area with animals including bears, cougars, and coyotes. Residents throughout Langley need not be continually on alert, but action can be taken to deter wild animals if they are spotted in your area. Parents should teach children what to do if they encounter these animals, especially if they play by themselves in areas that wildlife frequent or have been seen in the past.
Coyotes: have the largest population of potentially
WARNING

USE CAUTION ON ROADS
To help people coexist with creatures that are simply trying to survive but can be dangerous if provoked, the following information is offered:
Bears: are very active this time of year as they search for food
to fatten up for hibernation. Bears have a keen sense of smell and garbage and other food sources could easily attract a bear to your neighbourhood. Once they get a taste of human food, bears may not want to go back to natural food sources and could lose their fear of people. A bear’s movement is mostly dictated by food availability, so if it is not available, the bear will move on. Langley has had bear sightings this year. Please do your part to prevent human/wildlife conflict and keep bears from having to be destroyed. If you encounter a bear, do not run. Act big and loud, and back away slowly to a safe place.
Cougars: can have kittens throughout the year and family groups can
Proceeds from a golf tournament held in ideal late summer conditions at The Redwoods Golf Course on Wednesday, Aug. 27 will go towards feeding the more than 3,000 Langley students who go to school hungry. The ninth annual Langley School District Foundation tournament will help fund a district meal program. Getting set to tee off were, left to right, foundation executive director Susan Cairns, Langley school trustee and foundation director Alison McVeigh, Bruce Farquhar, director of Township of Langley firefighters charities, and Gordon Greenwood Elementary principal Frank Roberto.

dangerous wildlife in the area and can be seen year round, even in residential areas. Family groups have been regularly seen around Langley. Coyotes are bold and easily lose their natural fear of people. Never feed a coyote. If you encounter a coyote, scare it off by making loud noise or throwing something at it to make it afraid. Never ignore a coyote. If it continues to approach, do not run. Maintain eye contact, pick up small pets or children, and slowly move to an area of increased activity.
In Residential Areas: Reduce the smell of food by keeping barbecues clean. Keep pet food inside. Garbage is the biggest attraction for bears so keep it secure and inaccessible to wildlife. Do not leave garbage cans out overnight: keep them in the house, a locked garage, or secured outbuilding that cannot be broken into by large, smart bears. Put them out only on the morning of collection. If you are worried about odour, keep garbage in the freezer until collection day. Do not use bird feeders, as they attract bears and the birds do not need seeds when other natural food sources are available.
In Agricultural Areas: Protect your investment by keeping fences secure and free of damage that predators can use for access. Coyotes burrow, so ensure surrounding netting goes deep into the ground. Use electric fencing to deter bears from blueberries and beehives, and pick berries and fruit as they ripen. Be vigilant with livestock and keep them secure. Farm animals are usually killed at night, so bring them inside in the evening. It is an offence to attract wildlife into a residential neighbourhood.
be seen at any time. Cougars survive on natural food sources found in the wild, primarily deer.
Those who do not take steps to deter bears and other wild creatures can face a fine of up to $575.
Cougar attacks on humans are highly unlikely. However, if you encounter a cougar, do not run. Pick children up immediately and talk to the cougar in a confident voice. Act big by waving sticks and branches, and back away slowly while still facing the cougar. If it attacks, fight back.

Rumble raises big bucks for Big Brothers Big Sisters Saturday’s ball hockey fundraiser generated $10,000 for a worthy cause. by Troy Landreville

A team of Sharks from LK Law feasted on the competition, once again, at the annual Grant Thornton Community Classic – Road Hockey Rumble.
The LK Law Sharks won the charity ball hockey tournament for the third time in four years. A squad from the organizer, Grant Thornton, finished in second place. From Saturday’s day-long event, which drew eight adult teams and about 150
players, as well as a handful of kids, an estimated $10,000 was raised for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Langley, which pairs children (also known as “Littles”) with adult mentors (“Bigs”). All funds raised go directly to the programs administered by the BBBSL. “It was really good,” said Troy Melnychuk from Grant Thornton. “I played and it was a lot of fun for me.”
“I think we really stepped it up a notch this year.” With the BC Seniors Games closing ceremonies happening at the McLeod Athletic Park sports box on Sept. 13, the fundraiser moved from there to the north parking lot of the Langley Events Centre. Langley Rivermen junior A hockey team players volunteered their time to officiate the games.

Belton dealt to Stealth, Hall named to NLL Hall of Fame
It’s been a busy off season for Langley’s professional lacrosse team.
The Vancouver Stealth recently made another deal, as the National Lacrosse League team gears up for its second season playing out of the Langley Events Centre. The Stealth acquired transition player Kyle Belton from Connecticut in exchange for forward Jamie Lincoln, along with the signing of free-agent Brandon Smith, pending league approval. Belton, 27, split time last year with the Philadelphia Wings and Toronto Rock. In eight games in 2015, Belton scored two points and collected 30 loose balls. In his rookie year, Belton scored five points and collected 56 loose balls in 13 games with the Rock in 2013. The Langley native was drafted in the third round, 27th overall, by Toronto in the 2012 NLL Entry Draft. Belton plays his summer lacrosse with the Langley Thunder of the Western Lacrosse Association, where he’s competed in two Mann Cups.
Lincoln played two seasons in Colorado before signing as a free-agent with Vancouver. In seven games with the Stealth last season, he scored 11 points and collected 13 loose balls. Along with Belton and Smith, the Stealth have been busy this off-season, acquiring some new faces. The team picked up Dane Stevens and Tyler Hass in a trade last month with Minnesota. Vancouver also signed freeagent defenseman Tyler Burton along with rookies Caleb Wiles and Johnnie Rae earlier this summer. Stealth season tickets are on sale now, starting at just $99.

Hall of Fame coach
At the 2014 National Lacrosse League Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony at the Langley Events Centre on Sept. 3, recently retired Stealth coach Chris Hall made history. He became the first member of the Stealth to be inducted into the NLL Hall of Fame. The two inductees this year are Hall, along with defenceman and five-time NLL champion Pat Coyle.
The latest National Lacrosse League Hall of Fame inductees are Pat Coyle (left) and Chris Hall, who recently retired as coach of the Vancouver Stealth. The induction ceremony was held Sept. 3 at the Langley Events Centre, which is the home of the Stealth. “Two well deserving individuals in Pat and Chris, said NLL Commissioner George Daniel. “I thought it was great speeches, great ceremonies, probably one of the best we’ve had in the nine years we’ve been doing this. Just a great night overall.” Hall was honoured. “It’s an incredibly special moment for me,” Hall said. “You don’t start out a career expecting
it’ll last a long time. You just put your head down and start working and hope you have some success along the way and then you seem to find some longevity, which is probably the hardest thing to do.” He added, “If you can last long enough and have some success, then you can find yourself as a candidate for something as special as this. It’s truly humbling.”
Hall won his two NLL titles with Calgary in 2004 and Washington in 2010, and is only the third head coach in league history to have accomplished that feat. “You can’t separate one from the other,” he said. “They were both with franchises that were relatively new to the area. For me, trying to bring the sport to new horizons and having some success doing that is extremely rewarding.” Hall retired last season after 12 years as an NLL head coach, winning 85 regular season games, third most all-time. His resume also includes an NLL Coach of the Year award, which he was the co-recipient of in 2010. “It’s very deserving,” said Stealth defenseman Matt Beers. “So many people see him as one of the best head coaches in the NLL. Overall he’s such a good guy and he’s done a lot to grow the sport.” “It comes at a time for me where my career is probably coming to an end,” said Hall. “With my health, age and stress, it’s time to let someone else have a shot at it. It’s a fitting way to bring some closure to a very exciting career.”

Spartans top CIS rankings Donation Challenge Trinity Western University women are the queens of CIS soccer, for now, after national rankings were released this week.

After a pair of convincing road wins in the Okanagan this weekend, the Trinity Western University women’s soccer team has jumped to the top of the Canadian Interuniversity Sports national rankings for the first time in 2014. The Spartans (3-0-1) beat Thompson Rivers 3-1 and UBC Okanagan 5-1, and coupled with previously No. 1 Western falling to now No. 5 York, the Spartans moved up from their No. 2 ranking. The Western Mustangs (5-1-0) dropped to fourth place this week after suffering their first loss of the campaign, a 2-1 setback against York on Saturday. Undefeated York (6-0-0), which wasn’t ranked a week ago, sits fifth in the new poll. The last time the Spartans were ranked No. 1 in the CIS Top 10 was in the second week of the 2013 campaign. Last season, the Spartans started atop the rankings and remained there until dropping to No. 3 in week three. However, while the Spartans finished the season at No. 8, they eventually went on to win their second straight CIS national championship. The Spartans have a Canada West bye this week before returning to action Sept. 26-27 when they host UBCO Friday and TRU Saturday.
TWU will play an exhibition contest against Whitecaps FC Girls Elite Sept. 19 at Rogers Field. Game time is 7 p.m. The TWU men’s soccer team (1-2-1) remained unranked after a road weekend in which it earned a 1-1 tie with TRU before falling to UBCO by a 2-1 count. Like the women’s side, the men’s team has this weekend off before returning to the pitch Sept. 26-27 to play UBCO Friday and TRU Saturday. In other TWU women’s soccer news, midfielder Jessica King was named this week’s Canada West Female Second Star of the Week. The native of Liverpool, England is coming off a three-goal weekend. The fifth-year King is amongst the conference’s weekly stars for the second week in a row, as she was a Canada West Third Star of the Week following a two-goal effort in the first week of the season. This past weekend, King extended her goal-scoring streak to four games by adding two more game-winning goals during the Spartans’ road trip to Kamloops and Kelowna. The psychology major got her third game-winning goal of the season in TWU’s 3-1 win over Thompson Rivers Friday night in Kamloops. She followed that up Saturday in Kelowna with two more goals, including the game-winner, in the Spartans’ 5-1 win over UBC Okanagan. King now has five goals in her four Canada West conference games. She currently sits in second place in Canada West in goal-scoring and has helped the nationally top-ranked Spartans to three wins and a tie to open the Canada West season.

Cruise-In award winners named …continued from page A7
He and his wife Laurie Forshner-Talbot have owned the property for a decade. When they bought it, the small panabode (seven miles down a logging road) was intended as a summer getaway. After a fire destroyed that home in 2009, Forshner said they rebuilt a new house with a vision of it eventually becoming their permanent residence. Part of that vision was to ensure it off the grid and totally self-sufficient thanks to solar power. Another part of Forshner’s vision was to have a garage where he could work on classic cars and trucks at his leisure – year round. They finally moved into the home full time this past February, and currently have a carpenter building an income suite in the basement right. Forshner hasn’t told his wife yet, but he now has a meeting planned today (Tuesday, Sept. 16) with the builder to discuss options for his shop. In the meantime, he told the Langley Advance, he has plans to sell his 1930 Model A this winter, and hopes a new shop – complete with all the new tools – can be ready next spring so he can take on a newest automotive project. He’s currently eyeballing a 1928 Buick pickup that he’d like to acquire from California, and he’s hoping he’ll have his tricked out garage ready for its arrival.
In the meantime, Forshner said, he hasn’t taken possession of all his treasures yet. He’s still making arrangements for transport and storage. But it won’t be long, he said, before he has his ultimate garage complete – in large part thanks to the Cruise-In. “You have the best car show ever,” he said, noting that his windfall at Cruise-In forced him to boost the show’s ranking to top spot, even though he’s a long-time member and constant attendee at the Coasters Car Club show in Sleepy Hollow every year. As for plans to come to the 2015 Cruise-In, Forshner insists he will be back. His friends Roddy and Kathy Johnson had been pestering Forshner to come over for Cruise-In for years. Turned out Roddy was hospitalized after an accident and wasn’t unable to attend this year’s car show. But Forshner and his wife still went – and he’s sure glad he did. It was their first time at the Langley Good Times Cruise-In, but it definitely not be their last, Forshner insisted. “We’ll be back, you can count on it.”
Cars net prizes
There were close to 1,100 cars and trucks that entered in this year’s annual Langley Good Times Cruise-In. The show attracts a wide spectrum of automobiles, from classic and custom, to hot rod and vintage vehicles.
And while most of the car owners don’t come for accolades, but rather to show off their vehicles and help the Cruise-In charities, there are always a number of awards handed out each year. The 2014 car show award winners are:
• A&W presented their award to Doug Frisby for his 1962 Impala • Autoglym winner Allen Hughes and his 1962 Chevy 2 • Bernhausen Specialty Automotive winner Brent and Kareen Stewart and their 1971 Damon • Cascades Casino winner was Joel and Dana Henry and their 1951 Ford Kustom • Clover Towing’s award went to Kurt Grober and his 1967 Chevelle • Dominion Lending Centres’ winner was Ross Galitzky and his 1931 Ford convertible • In-N-Out Burgers’ award went to Emilio Bevacqua and his 1962 Impala • Johnston Meier Insurance’s winner was Bill Constable and his 1961 Impalla • Kirmac Collision & Autoglass award was given to Glen Teager and his 1956 F100 pickup • Langley Times award went to Cecil Aitchison and his 1941 Chev pickup • Lordo Auto Parts award went to Paul Khmeleff and his 1953 GMC Cab Over Engine • Poppy Estates Golf Course won by H. Mangat and her 1945 Ford GPW army jeep • Save-On-Foods presented their award to Elynor Patterson and power wheel Jeep • Ultra Digital Printing presented to Russ and Sharon Waits and their 1970 Torino GT • Valley Cut Steel award went to Dwayne Mitchel and his 1960 Corvette • Vancouver Car Wraps’ winner was Erin Francis and a 1956 F100 pickup, and • the Mayor’s (Langley City’s Ted Schaffer) Choice was won to Rick Schick and his 1930 Ford Roadster.

All cash back amounts are added to the vehicle loan and included in the payments. Hot Tub promotion is based on $5500 allowance against dealer profit and is net of all truck or minivan rebates. No two gift offers can be combined – Trip/Gift cost is taken out of dealer’s profit. Deferred payments for 6 or 12 months accumulate interest for 6 months and if deferred 12 months interest fees are added to the vehicle purchase price - See dealer for details. All offers are subject to acceptance conditions (OAC) - Other conditions may apply. “Bring it Back” policy on used vehicles applies to mechanical failure, dealer will not repair. Featured vehicles may differ slightly from those illustrated.
